Exodus 22:2 VOICE

[2] A thief must make restitution for what he has taken. If he has no means of doing so, he must be sold to pay for his theft. If a person attacks a thief in the act of breaking into his house and the thief is killed during the attack, then the homeowner is innocent of blood guilt. It is different if the sun has already risen; so any homeowner who kills a thief during the day must be considered guilty of bloodshed.
