30‘1If anyoneH3605 killsH5221 a personH5315, the murdererH7523 shall be putH7523 toH7523 deathH7523 on the 2testimonyH6310 of witnessesH5707, but 3noH3808 personH5315 shall be putH4191 toH4191 deathH4191 onH6030 theH6030 testimonyH6030 of only oneH259 witnessH5707.

31Moreover, you shall not acceptH3947 a ransomH3724 for the lifeH5315 of a murdererH7523 whoH834 is 4condemnedH7563 to deathH4191, but he mustH4191 be putH4191 toH4191 deathH4191.

32And you shall not acceptH3947 a ransomH3724 for one who has fledH5127 to his cityH5892 of refugeH4733, so that he may returnH7725 to liveH3427 in the landH776 5beforeH5704 the deathH4194 of the priestH3548.

336So you shall not defileH2610 the landH776 in whichH834 you live; for bloodH1818 defilesH2610 the landH776, and noH3808 atonementH3722 can be madeH3722 for the landH776 for the bloodH1818 that is shedH8210 on it, exceptH3588H518 7by the bloodH1818 of the one who shedH8210 it.
