No person shall be held to answer for a capital or otherwise infamous crime, unless on indictment by a grand jury, except in cases of impeachment, and in cases arising in the militia when in actual service, and in the land and naval forces in time of war, or in the forces which the State may keep with the consent of Congress, in time of peace, and in cases of petit larceny under the regulations of the Legislature. In any trial in any court the party accused shall be confronted with the witnesses against him, and be allowed to appear and defend in person and with counsel as in civil actions. No person shall be twice put in jeopardy for the same offence, nor shall he be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself ; nor be deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law ; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
