Geneva⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ And all the Elders of that citie that came neere to the slayne man, shall wash their hands ouer the heifer that is beheaded in the valley: ⁷ And shall testifie, and say, Our handes haue not shed this blood, neither haue our eies seene it. ⁸ O Lord, be mercifull vnto thy people Israel, whom thou hast redeemed, and lay no innocent blood to the charge of thy people Israel, and the blood shalbe forgiuen them. ⁹ So shalt thou take away the cry of innocet blood from thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight of the Lord.
