Deuteronomy 21:7-9

LEB(i) 7 And they shall declare, and they shall say, 'Our hands did not shed this blood, and our eyes did not see what was done. 8 Forgive your people, Israel, whom you redeemed, Yahweh, and do not allow* the guilt of innocent blood in the midst of your people Israel, and let them be forgiven with regard to blood.' 9 And so you shall purge the innocent blood from your midst, because you must do the right thing in the eyes of Yahweh.
