3so that one who commitsH7523 manslaughterH7523 by 1killingH5221 a personH5315 unintentionallyH7684, withoutH1097 premeditationH1847, may fleeH5127 thereH8033, and they shall becomeH1961 your refugeH4733 from the avengerH1350 of bloodH1818. 4Then he shall fleeH5127 to oneH259 of theseH428 citiesH5892, and shall standH5975 at the entranceH6607 of the 2gateH8179 of the cityH5892, and stateH1696 his caseH1697 in the 3presenceH241 of the eldersH2205 of that cityH5892; and they shall 4receiveH622 him into the cityH5892 to them and giveH5414 him a placeH4725, so that he may remainH3427 amongH5973 them. 5Now 5ifH3588 the avengerH1350 of bloodH1818 pursuesH7291 him, then they are not to handH5462H3027 the one who committedH7523 manslaughterH7523 overH5462 to him, sinceH3588 he struckH5221 his neighborH7453 withoutH1097 premeditationH1847 and did not hateH8130 him previouslyH4480H8543H8032. 6And he shall remainH3427 in that cityH5892 6untilH5704 he standsH5975 beforeH6440 the congregationH5712 for judgmentH4941, untilH5704 the deathH4194 of the one whoH834 is highH1419 priestH3548 in thoseH1992 daysH3117. ThenH227 7he shall 8returnH7725H935 to his own cityH5892 and to his own houseH1004, to the cityH5892 from whichH834 he fledH5127.’”
