Numbers 35:9-21

9And Jehovah spokeH1696 to MosesH4872, sayingH559,

10SpeakH1696 unto the children of IsraelH3478, and sayH559 unto them, When ye passH5674 over the JordanH3383 into the landH776 of CanaanH3667,

11then ye shall appoint for yourselves citiesH5892: citiesH5892 of refugeH4733 shall they beH1961 for you; that a manslayer may fleeH5127 thither, who without intent smiteth a personH5315 mortally.

12And ye shall have these citiesH5892 for refugeH4733 from the avengerH1350; that the manslayer dieH4191 not, until he have stoodH5975 before the assemblyH5712 in judgmentH4941.

13And the citiesH5892 that ye shall giveH5414 shall beH1961 sixH8337 citiesH5892 of refugeH4733 for you.

14ThreeH7969 citiesH5892 shall ye giveH5414 on this sideH5676 of 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 a refugeH4733, that one who smiteth a personH5315 mortally without intent may fleeH5127 thither.

16And if he have smitten him with an instrument of ironH1270, so that he dieH4191, he is a murdererH7523: the murdererH7523 shall certainlyH4191 be putH4191 to deathH4191.

17And if he have smitten him with a stoneH68 from the handH3027, wherewith one may dieH4191, and he dieH4191, he is a murdererH7523: the murdererH7523 shall certainlyH4191 be putH4191 to deathH4191.

18Or if he have smitten him with an instrument of woodH6086, in the handH3027, wherewith one may dieH4191, and he dieH4191, he is a murdererH7523: the murdererH7523 shall certainlyH4191 be putH4191 to deathH4191;

19the avengerH1350 of bloodH1818, he shall putH4191 the murdererH7523 to deathH4191; when he meeteth him, he shall putH4191 him to deathH4191.

20And if he thrust at him out of hatredH8135, or hurl at him intentionally, so that he dieH4191,

21or from enmityH342 smite him with his handH3027, so that he dieH4191, he that smote him shall certainlyH4191 be putH4191 to deathH4191; he is a murdererH7523: the avengerH1350 of bloodH1818 shall putH4191 the murdererH7523 to deathH4191, when he meeteth him. —
