Deuteronomy 19:6-7

6“If the distance to the nearest city of refuge is too far, an enraged avenger might be able to chase down and kill the person who caused the death. Then the slayer would die unfairly, since he had never shown hostility toward the person who died.

7That is why I am commanding you to set aside three cities of refuge.
