Exodus 22
1 If any man steal an ox or a sheep, and kill or sell it: he shall restore five oxen for one ox, and four sheep for one sheep.
Tami ni tu hoi maito hah a paru teh a thei nakunghai thoseh, a yo nakunghai thoseh, maito buet touh dawk maito panga touh, tu buet touh dawk tu pali touh hoi bout a patho han.
2 If a thief be found breaking open a house or undermining it, and be wounded so as to die: he that slew him shall not be guilty of blood.
Tamru ni imthung a kun nah ayâ ni a hmu teh ka thet nakunghai, due yueng lah dout mahoeh.
3 But if he did this when the sun is risen, he hath committed murder, and he shall die. If he have not wherewith to make restitution for the theft, he shall be sold.

4 If that which he stole be found with him, alive, either ox, or ass, or sheep: he shall restore double.
Tamru e kut dawk tu maito hah a hring lah hmawt pawiteh, let hni hoi a patho han.
5 If any man hurt a field or a vineyard, and put in his beast to feed upon that which is other men’s: he shall restore the best of whatsoever he hath in his own field, or in his vineyard, according to the estimation of the damage.

7 If a man deliver money, or any vessel unto his friend to keep, and they be stolen away from him that received them: if the thief be found he shall restore double:
Tami buet touh ni a imri buet touh koe suingun patet e hno buetbuet touh a hnawng teh, a hnawng e tami e im dawk hoi tamru ni parawt pawiteh tamru hah a hmu awh navah, tamru ni let hni hoi a rawng han.
8 If the thief be not known, the master of the house shall be brought to the gods, and shall swear that he did not lay his hand upon his neighbour’s goods,
Tamru pâphawng hoeh boipawiteh, katawnkung ni a imri hah hno a la hoi a la hoeh e Cathut hmalah a pacei han.
9 To do any fraud, either in ox, or in ass, or sheep, or raiment, or any thing that may bring damage: the cause of both parties shall come to the gods: and if they give judgment, he shall restore double to his neighbour.

10 If a man deliver ass, ox, sheep, or any beast, to his neighbour’s custody, and it die, or be hurt, or be taken by enemies, and no man saw it:

11 There shall be an oath between them, that he did not put forth his hand to his neighbour’s goods: and the owner shall accept of the oath; and he shall not be compelled to make restitution.
A hnawng e tami ni ka imri e hno ka lat hoeh telah kahni touh hoi hnâ a bo roi teh BAWIPA hmalah thoe kâ bo roi pawiteh hno katawnkung ni a hnâbo khai vaiteh, a hnawng e tami ni hai rawng mahoeh.
12 But if it were taken away by stealth, he shall make the loss good to the owner.

13 If it were eaten by a beast, let him bring to him that which was slain, and he shall not make restitution.

17 If the maid’s father will not give her to him, he shall give money according to the dowry, which virgins are wont to receive.
