Numbers 35:12-19

12And the citiesH5892 shall beH1961 unto you for refugeH4733 from the avengerH1350, that the manslayer dieH4191 not, until he standH5975 before the congregationH5712 for judgmentH4941. 13And the citiesH5892 which ye shall giveH5414 shall beH1961 for you sixH8337 citiesH5892 of refugeH4733. 14Ye shall giveH5414 threeH7969 citiesH5892 beyond the JordanH3383, and threeH7969 citiesH5892 shall ye giveH5414 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667; they shall beH1961 citiesH5892 of refugeH4733. 15For the children of IsraelH3478, and for the stranger and for the sojourner among them, shall these sixH8337 citiesH5892 beH1961 for refugeH4733; that every one that killeth any personH5315 unwittingly may fleeH5127 thither.

16But if he smote him with an instrument of ironH1270, so that he diedH4191, he is a murdererH7523: the murdererH7523 shall surely be putH4191 to deathH4191. 17And if he smote him with a stoneH68 in the handH3027, whereby a man may dieH4191, and he diedH4191, he is a murdererH7523: the murdererH7523 shall surely be putH4191 to deathH4191. 18Or if he smote him with a weaponH3627 of woodH6086 in the handH3027, whereby a man may dieH4191, and he diedH4191, he is a murdererH7523: the murdererH7523 shall surely be putH4191 to deathH4191. 19The avengerH1350 of bloodH1818 shall himself putH4191 the murdererH7523 to deathH4191: when he meeteth him, he shall putH4191 him to deathH4191.
