Exodus 22:12-14

New Catholic Bible

¹² If it was torn to pieces, let him bring the pieces as evidence and he shall not pay restitution.

¹³ “If someone borrows anything from a neighbor and it is hurt or dies when the owner is not there, he shall pay full restitution. ¹⁴ But if the owner is there, he shall not have to pay restitution. If the animal was hired, then its loss is the price of its hire.
