(1) One who injures his fellow is liable concerning him for five categories [of payment]: damages, pain, healthcare, unemployment, and shame. For damages, how [is this calculated?] One who puts out his eye, cuts off his hand, breaks his leg—we see him as if he were a slave sold in the marketplace, and we evaluate how much he was worth [the injury] and how much he is worth now.
Pain? When he burned him with a spit or a nail—even on his fingernail—anything where there is no [permanent] wound, we evaluate how much a similar person would want to pay to be spared this [pain].
Healthcare? When he strikes him, he is liable for his healthcare costs. If swellings arose on him, if they were because of the strike, then he is liable; but if it was not because of the strike, he is exempt. If the swelling healed and then reopened and then healed and reopened, he is liable for his healthcare. If it healed entirely, he is exempt from his healing.
Unemployment? We see him as if he were a guard of gourds, since he already gave him the value [for the loss] of his hand or his leg.
Shame? All depends on the one who shames and the one who is shamed. One who shames a naked person, a blind person or a sleeping person is liable. If a sleeping person embarrasses, he is exempt. One who falls from the roof and caused damage and shame, he is liable for damages and exempt for shame, as it is written, "[when two men fight and the wife of one comes out to save her husband,] and she puts out her hand and seizes his genitals (lit. damages his shame), No one is liable for shame unless one intended to cause it.
אמר רחמנא אימא
עין ממש
לא סלקא דעתך דתניא
יכול סימא את עינו מסמא את עינו קטע את ידו מקטע את ידו שיבר את רגלו משבר את רגלו
ת"ל מכה אדם ומכה בהמה מה מכה בהמה לתשלומין
אף מכה אדם לתשלומין
The Gemara asks: Why does the mishna take for granted the fact that one who caused injury is liable to pay compensation to the injured party?
The Merciful One states in the Torah: “An eye for an eye” (Exodus 21:24). You might say that this means that the one who caused injury shall lose an actual eye rather than pay money."Eye for an eye"!
[Sages]: Don't let that arise in your mind...as the Torah teaches (Leviticus 24:21) "Whoever (lethally) strikes a man," "Whoever (lethally) strikes an animal..." Just like the striking of an animal is subject to repayment [monetarily] so too the striking of a human is subject to repayment [monetarily].
(כד) עין תחת עין ממון. אתה אומר ממון, או אינו אלא עין ממש. היה רבי אלעזר אומר, ומכה בהמה ישלמנה ומכה אדם יומת. הקיש הכתוב נזקי אדם לנזקי בהמה (נזקי בהמה לנזקי אדם). מה נזקי בהמה לתשלומין אף נזקי אדם לתשלומי
(24) "an eye for an eye" [refers to] money. You argue "money," but perhaps an eye (literally) is intended? R. Elazar quoted (Leviticus 24:21) "One who strikes a beast shall pay for it, and one who strikes a man shall be put to death." Scripture likens the injuries of a man to the injuries of a beast, and the injuries of a beast to the injuries of a man. And just as the injuries of a beast are subject to monetary payment, so, the injuries of a man...."
