Exodus 22:14

“If a man borrows an animal ¹  from his neighbor, and it is hurt or dies when its owner was not with it, the man who borrowed it ²  will surely pay.

Ex 21:34; Ex 22:11; Le 24:18; De 15:2; De 23:19,20; Ne 5:4; Ps 37:21; Mt 5:42; Lu 6:35

¹ tn Heb “if a man asks [an animal] from his neighbor” (see also Exod 12:36). The ruling here implies an animal is borrowed, and if harm comes to it when the owner is not with it, the borrower is liable. The word “animal” is supplied in the translation for clarity.

² tn Heb “he”; the referent (the man who borrowed the animal) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
