But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house.
Pero si es atrapado, debe devolver siete veces lo que robó; debe entregar todo lo que posee en su casa.
El ladrón que es atrapado debe pagar siete veces lo robado, aunque pierda todas sus posesiones.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the ancient Israelite society, as described in the Book of Proverbs, theft was a serious offense that required restitution to uphold justice and maintain community order, reflecting the wisdom traditions of the time. This verse is part of a broader passage in Proverbs 6 that warns against various sins, including laziness and adultery, using everyday examples to teach moral lessons. It draws from Old Testament laws, such as those in Exodus 22, where a thief caught in the act must repay what was stolen, often multiple times, to emphasize accountability.
