16And if he smiteH5221 him with an instrumentH3627 of ironH1270, so that he dieH4191, he is a murdererH7523: the murdererH7523 shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191.
17And if he smiteH5221 him with throwingH3027 a stoneH68, wherewith he may dieH4191, and he dieH4191, he is a murdererH7523: the murdererH7523 shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191.1
18Or if he smiteH5221 him with an handH3027 weaponH3627 of woodH6086, wherewith he may dieH4191, and he dieH4191, he is a murdererH7523: the murdererH7523 shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191.
19The revengerH1350 of bloodH1818 himself shall slayH4191 the murdererH7523: when he meetethH6293 him, heH1931 shall slayH4191 him.
20But if he thrustH1920 him of hatredH8135, or hurlH7993 at him by laying of waitH6660, that he dieH4191;
21Or in enmityH342 smiteH5221 him with his handH3027, that he dieH4191: he that smoteH5221 him shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191; for he is a murdererH7523: the revengerH1350 of bloodH1818 shall slayH4191 the murdererH7523, when he meetethH6293 him.
22But if he thrustH1920 him suddenlyH6621 withoutH3808 enmityH342, or have castH7993 upon him any thingH3627 without laying of waitH6660,
23Or with any stoneH68, wherewith a man may dieH4191, seeingH7200 him notH3808, and castH5307 it upon him, that he dieH4191, and was not his enemyH341, neither soughtH1245 his harmH7451:
