| 10Now an Israelite woman's son whose father was an Egyptian went out among the Israelites, and the Israelite woman's son and an Israelite man had a fight in the camp. | 10Now the son of an Israelite mother and an Egyptian father was among the Israelites. A fight broke out in the camp between the Israelite woman's son and an Israelite man. |
| 11The Israelite woman's son misused the Name and cursed, so they brought him to Moses. (Now his mother's name was Shelomith daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan.) | 11Her son cursed and blasphemed the Name, and they brought him to Moses.

| 12So they placed him in custody until they were able to make a clear legal decision for themselves based on words from the mouth of the LORD. | 12They put him in custody until the LORD's decision could be made clear to them. |

| 14"Bring the one who cursed outside the camp, and all who heard him are to lay their hands on his head, and the whole congregation is to stone him to death. | 14"Bring the one who has cursed to the outside of the camp and have all who heard him lay their hands on his head; then have the whole community stone him. |
| 15Moreover, you are to tell the Israelites, 'If any man curses his God he will bear responsibility for his sin, | 15And tell the Israelites: If anyone curses his God, he will bear the consequences of his sin. |
| 16and one who misuses the name of the LORD must surely be put to death. The whole congregation must surely stone him, whether he is a foreigner or a native citizen; when he misuses the Name he must be put to death. | 16Whoever blasphemes the name of the LORD must be put to death; the whole community is to stone him. If he blasphemes the Name, he is to be put to death, whether the resident alien or the native. |
| 17"'If a man beats any person to death, he must be put to death. | 17"If a man kills anyone, he must be put to death. |
| 18One who beats an animal to death must make restitution for it, life for life. | 18Whoever kills an animal is to make restitution for it, life for life. |
| 19If a man inflicts an injury on his fellow citizen, just as he has done it must be done to him-- | 19If any man inflicts a permanent injury on his neighbor, whatever he has done is to be done to him: |
| 20fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth--just as he inflicts an injury on another person that same injury must be inflicted on him. | 20fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth. Whatever injury he inflicted on the person, the same is to be inflicted on him. |
| 21One who beats an animal to death must make restitution for it, but one who beats a person to death must be put to death. | 21Whoever kills an animal is to make restitution for it, but whoever kills a person is to be put to death. |
| 22There will be one regulation for you, whether a foreigner or a native citizen, for I am the LORD your God.'" | 22You are to have the same law for the resident alien and the native, because I am the LORD your God." |
| 23Then Moses spoke to the Israelites and they brought the one who cursed outside the camp and stoned him with stones. So the Israelites did just as the LORD had commanded Moses. | 23After Moses spoke to the Israelites, they brought the one who had cursed to the outside of the camp and stoned him.
