Exodus 22:14-16

Living Bible

¹⁴ “If a man borrows an animal (or anything else) from a neighbor, and it is injured or killed, and the owner is not there at the time, then the man who borrowed it must pay for it. ¹⁵ But if the owner is there, he need not pay; and if it was rented, then he need not pay, because this possibility was included in the original rental fee.

¹⁶ “If a man seduces a girl who is not engaged to anyone^[a] and sleeps with her, he must pay the usual dowry and accept her as his wife.
