Joshua 20:3-5

3That the slayerH7523 that killethH5221 any personH5315 unintentionallyH7684 and unknowinglyH1847 may fleeH5127 there: and they shall be your refugeH4733 from the avengerH1350 of bloodH1818.

4And when he that doth fleeH5127 to oneH259 of those citiesH5892 shall standH5975 at the entranceH6607 of the gateH8179 of the cityH5892, and shall declareH1696 his causeH1697 in the earsH241 of the eldersH2205 of that cityH5892, they shall takeH622 him into the cityH5892 to them, and giveH5414 him a placeH4725, that he may dwellH3427 among them.

5And if the avengerH1350 of bloodH1818 shall pursueH7291H310 him, then they shall not deliverH5462 the slayerH7523 into his handH3027; because he smoteH5221 his neighbourH7453 unknowinglyH1097H1847, and had not hatedH8130 him in times pastH8543H8032.
