[There is] to the [law of the] muad bull that killed a slave an [element of] leniency, as well as an [element of] stringency. How so? Whether it killed thehandsomest slave or the ugliest slave, he gives thirty selaim. [If] it killed a freeman, he gives his worth. [If] it wounded either this one or that one, he pays a full damage.

[There are] to [the laws of] the violator and the seducer [elements of] leniency, as well as [elements of] stringency. How so? Whether he violated or seduced [the daughter of] the most prominent [family] of Kohanim or [of] the humblest [family] of Israel, he gives fifty selaim. But as for [the payments for] disgrace and debasement, all depends upon [the status of] the one who disgraced and the one who was disgraced.
