16‘1But ifH518 he struckH5221 him downH5221 with an ironH1270 objectH3627, so that he diedH4191, he is a murdererH7523; the murdererH7523 shall surelyH4191 be putH4191 to deathH4191. 17IfH518 he struckH5221 him downH5221 with a stoneH68 in the handH3027, by whichH834 he will dieH4191, and as a result he diedH4191, he is a murdererH7523; the murdererH7523 2shall surelyH4191 be putH4191 to deathH4191. 18OrH176 if he struckH5221 him with a woodenH6086 objectH3627 in the handH3027, by whichH834 he might dieH4191, and as a result he diedH4191, he is a murdererH7523; the murdererH7523 shall surelyH4191 be putH4191 to deathH4191. 19The bloodH1818 avengerH1350 himselfH1931 shall putH4191 the murdererH7523 to deathH4191; he shall putH4191 him to deathH4191 when he meetsH6293 him. 203IfH518 he pushedH1920 him of hatredH8135, orH176 threwH7993 something at him 4lyingH6660 in waitH6660 and as a result he diedH4191, 21orH176 if he struckH5221 him downH5221 with his handH3027 in enmityH342, and as a result he diedH4191, the one who struckH5221 him shall surelyH4191 be putH4191 to deathH4191, he is a murdererH7523; the bloodH1818 avengerH1350 shall putH4191 the murdererH7523 to deathH4191 when he meetsH6293 him.
22‘5But ifH518 he pushedH1920 him suddenlyH6621 withoutH3808 enmityH342, orH176 threwH7993 somethingH3605H3627 at him withoutH3808 lyingH6660 in waitH6660, 23orH176 with anyH3605 6deadlyH834H4191 object of stoneH68, and withoutH3808 seeingH7200 it droppedH5307 on him so that he diedH4191, while he was not his enemyH340 norH3808 seekingH1245 his injuryH7463, 24then 7the congregationH5712 shall judgeH8199 betweenH996 the slayerH5221 and the bloodH1818 avengerH1350 accordingH5921 to theseH428 ordinancesH4941. 25The congregationH5712 shall deliverH5337 the manslayerH7523 from the handH3027 of the bloodH1818 avengerH1350, and the congregationH5712 shall restoreH7725 him to his cityH5892 of refugeH4733 to whichH834 he fledH5127; and he shall liveH3427 in it untilH5704 the deathH4194 of the highH1419 priestH3548 whoH834 was anointedH4886 with the holyH6944 oilH8081. 26But ifH518 the manslayerH7523 at anyH3318 timeH3318 goesH3318 beyondH3318 the borderH1366 of his cityH5892 of refugeH4733 to whichH834 he may fleeH5127, 27and the bloodH1818 avengerH1350 findsH4672 him outsideH4480H2351 the borderH1366 of his cityH5892 of refugeH4733, and the bloodH1818 avengerH1350 killsH7523 the manslayerH7523, he will not be guilty of bloodH1818
