Your citations are ALL from the OT, concerning the Mosaic law. The
Mosaic law has been superceeded as far as Catholic teachings go,
leaving the Ten Commandments. Here is the Church's Catechism on the
subject. For informational purposes only, not to start a war. Note
sections 2270 through 2275.

Excuse me, time to go and kneel down before my AA Higher Power, humble
myself, and clean out theeir litter boxes. (Well, no, the cats are not
really my AA Higher Power, but try telling that to the cats...sigh.)
