33 And when a man shall open a well, or when he shall dig a pit and couer it not, and an oxe or an asse fall therein, 34 The owner of the pit shall make it good, and giue money to the owners thereof, but the dead beast shalbe his. 35 And if a mans oxe hurt his neighbours oxe that he die, then they shal sel the liue oxe, & deuide the money thereof, and the dead oxe also they shall deuide. 36 Or if it bee knowen that the oxe hath vsed to push in times past, & his master hath not kept him, he shal pay oxe for oxe, but the dead shall be his owne.
