Numbers 35:9-12

9The Lord said to Moses,

10“Tell the Israelites: When you cross the Jordan River and enter Canaan,

11select certain cities to be places of refuge. Anyone who unintentionally kills another person may run to them.

12These cities will be places of refuge from any relative who can avenge the death. So anyone accused of murder will not have to die until he has had a trial in front of the community.
