Joshua 20:4-6

LEB(i) 4 The killer will flee to one of these cities, stand at the entrance of the gate of the city, and state his case to the elders of that city;* and they will take him* into the city and give him a place, and he will dwell among them. 5 And if the avenger of blood pursues after him, they will not hand over the killer into his hand, because he killed his neighbor unintentionally, and he did not hate him previously.* 6 The killer will stay in that city until he stands before the congregation for the trial, until the death of the one who is the high priest in those days. Then the killer will return* to his city and to his house, to the city from which he fled.'"
