And for your lifeblood I will
require a reckoning: from every
beast I will require it and from
man. From his fellow man I will
require a reckoning for the life
of man. “Whoever sheds the blood
of man, by man shall his blood be
shed, for God made man in his own
image.
(Genesis 9:5,6)

Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand
for hand, foot for foot, burn for
burn, wound for wound, stripe for
stripe.
(Exodus 21:24,25)

If a thief is found breaking in
and is struck so that he dies,
there shall be no bloodguilt for
him, but if the sun has risen on
him, there shall be bloodguilt for
him. He shall surely pay. If he
has nothing, then he shall be sold
for his theft.
(Exodus 22:2,3)
ESV
You have heard that it was said,
‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for
a tooth.’ But I say to you, Do not
resist the one who is evil. But if
anyone slaps you on the right
cheek, turn to him the other also.
(Matthew 5:38,39)

body but cannot kill the soul.
Rather fear him who can destroy
both soul and body in hell.

Then Jesus said to him, “Put your
sword back into its place. For all
who take the sword will perish by
the sword. Do you think that I
cannot appeal to my Father, and he
will at once send me more than
twelve legions of angels? But how
then should the Scriptures be
fulfilled, that it must be so?”
(Matthew 26:52-54)

commandments.

but leave it to the wrath of God,

Lord.”

For he is God's servant for your
good. But if you do wrong, be
afraid, for he does not bear the
sword in vain. For he is the
servant of God, an avenger who
carries out God's wrath on the
wrongdoer.
(Romans 13:4)
ESV
Or do you not know that the
unrighteous will not inherit the
kingdom of God? Do not be
deceived: neither the sexually
immoral, nor idolaters, nor
adulterers, nor men who practice
homosexuality, nor thieves, nor
the greedy, nor drunkards, nor
revilers, nor swindlers will
inherit the kingdom of God
(1 Corinthians 6:9,10)

Outside are the dogs and sorcerers
and the sexually immoral and
murderers and idolaters, and
everyone who loves and practices
falsehood.
