## Exodus 22:5-6 in Context (Verses 2–9 KJV)
 
 [2 ](/kjv/exodus/22/2) ¶ If a thief be found breaking up, and be smitten that he die, *there shall* no blood *be shed* for him.
 
 [3 ](/kjv/exodus/22/3) If the sun be risen upon him, *there shall be* blood *shed* for him; *for* he should make full restitution; if he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
 
 [4 ](/kjv/exodus/22/4) If the theft be certainly found in his hand alive, whether it be ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall restore double.
 
 [5 ](/kjv/exodus/22/5) ¶ If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another man’s field; of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.
 
 [6 ](/kjv/exodus/22/6) ¶ If fire break out, and catch in thorns, so that the stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field, be consumed *therewith;* he that kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/exodus/22/7) ¶ If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man’s house; if the thief be found, let him pay double.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/exodus/22/8) If the thief be not found, then the master of the house shall be brought unto the judges, *to see* whether he have put his hand unto his neighbour’s goods.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/exodus/22/9) For all manner of trespass, *whether it be* for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, *or* for any manner of lost thing, which *another* challengeth to be his, the cause of both parties shall come before the judges; *and* whom the judges shall condemn, he shall pay double unto his neighbour.
