25And the congregationH5712 shall deliverH5337 the slayerH7523 out of the handH3027 of the revengerH1350 of bloodH1818, and the congregationH5712 shall restoreH7725 him to the cityH5892 of his refugeH4733, whither he was fledH5127: and he shall abideH3427 in it unto the deathH4194 of the highH1419 priestH3548, which was anointedH4886 with the holyH6944 oilH8081.
26But if the slayerH7523 shall at any timeH3318 comeH3318 without the borderH1366 of the cityH5892 of his refugeH4733, whither he was fledH5127;
27And the revengerH1350 of bloodH1818 findH4672 him withoutH2351 the bordersH1366 of the cityH5892 of his refugeH4733, and the revengerH1350 of bloodH1818 killH7523 the slayerH7523; he shall not be guilty of bloodH1818:1
28Because he should have remainedH3427 in the cityH5892 of his refugeH4733 until the deathH4194 of the highH1419 priestH3548: but afterH310 the deathH4194 of the highH1419 priestH3548 the slayerH7523 shall returnH7725 into the landH776 of his possessionH272.
