Answer:
D. pay a fine 30 times greater than the value of the sheep
Explanation:
Hammurabi’s Code had a strict rule for stealing cattle, goats, or sheep. Law number eight stated that once someone steals sheep in property of the ruling class („if it belongs to a god or to the court”) he has to pie “thirtyfold therefor”. This means the one who stole sheep have to pay thirty sheep in return or an equal amount of their worth. If one can’t pay out his debt, he shall be put to death.
