In context
15 Whoever strikes his father or mother must surely be put to death.
16 Whoever kidnaps another man must be put to death, whether he sells him or the man is found in his possession.
17 Anyone who curses his father or mother must surely be put to death.
18 If men are quarreling and one strikes the other with a stone or a fist, and he does not die but is confined to bed,
19 then the one who struck him shall go unpunished, as long as the other can get up and walk around outside with his staff. Nevertheless, he must compensate the man for his lost work and see that he is completely healed.
20 If a man strikes his manservant or maidservant with a rod, and the servant dies by his hand, he shall surely be punished.
21 However, if the servant gets up after a day or two, the owner shall not be punished, since the servant is his property.
