This can be expressed with an active verb. Alternate translation: "God said to those who lived long ago" or "Moses said to your ancestors long ago" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
# Whoever kills will be in danger of the judgment

A judge, either God or a human judge, will condemn the person to die. Alternate translation: "Whoever kills will be held accountable by the judge" or "The judge will condemn anyone who kills another person" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-abstractnouns]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])

This refers to the eye on the right-hand side of the face. The Jews thought of the right hand as more important than the left, so the phrase "right eye" was a metaphor for the most important eye. You may need to translate "right" as "better" or "stronger." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
