Numbers 35:15-24 These six cities shall be for a refuge to the sons of Israel, and to an alien, and to a sojourner in their midst, that may flee there any person who kills anyone unawares.

LITV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ These six cities shall be for a refuge to the sons of Israel, and to an alien, and to a sojourner in their midst, that may flee there any person who kills anyone unawares. ¹⁶ And if he strikes him with an instrument of iron, and he dies, he is a murderer; the murderer shall surely be put to death. ¹⁷ And if he strikes him with a stone in the hand, by which he dies, and he dies, he is a murderer; the murderer shall certainly be put to death. ¹⁸ And if he strikes him with a wooden instrument in the hand, by which he dies, and he dies, he is a murderer; the murderer shall certainly be put to death. ¹⁹ The avenger of blood shall himself put to death the murderer; when he meets with him, he shall put him to death. ²⁰ And if he pushes him down, or has thrown at him by lying in wait, and he dies; ²¹ or if he has struck him with his hand in enmity, and he dies, the striker shall certainly be put to death; he is a murderer. When the avenger of blood meets him he shall put to death the murderer. ²² And if in an instant he pushed him without enmity, or has thrown at him anything without lying in wait; ²³ or with any stone without seeing, by which he dies, and has caused it to fall on him, and he dies, and he is not an enemy to him, nor seeking his evil; ²⁴ then the congregation shall judge between the striker and the avenger of blood, by these judgments.
