If anyone is wrongfully killed, we have given the heirs of that person the right (to demand satisfaction or to forgive). He must not exceed the law in having vengeance; his victim shall also be assisted (by law). 33 And approach not the substance of an orphan save with that which is best, until he attaineth his age of strength.

What you say is a monstrous utterance. 40
