Exegesis
Two sequential verbs express obligation and restitution: yeshalem {יְשַׁלֵּם | yə-šal-lêm} ‘must pay’ takes kesef {כֶּסֶף | ke-sĕp̄} ‘silver’, and yashiv {יָשִׁיב | yā-šîb} ‘shall return’ governs libaalav ‘its owner’.
In context — Exodus 21:34
The owner of the pit must pay silver to the animal’s owner, and the dead animal will be his.
