Exodus 22:7-9
Evangelical Heritage Version
7 If a man entrusts money or other items to his neighbor for safekeeping, and they are stolen out of that man’s house, if the thief is found, he shall repay double. 8 If the thief is not found, then the owner of the house shall appear before the judges[a] to find out whether he has laid his hands on his neighbor’s goods. 9 In every such offense, whether it involves an ox, a donkey, a sheep, clothing, or any other kind of lost property about which someone claims, “This is mine,” the claims of both parties shall be presented before the judges. Whichever party the judges find guilty shall repay double to his neighbor.
