KJV · Textus Receptus
And theLORDspake untoMoses in theplains ofMoab byJordan nearJericho, saying,
2Command thechildren ofIsrael, that theygive unto theLevites of theinheritance of theirpossessioncities to dwellin; and ye shallgive also unto theLevitessuburbs for thecities round about them.
3 And thecities shall they have to dwellin; and thesuburbs of them shall be for theircattle, and for theirgoods, and for all their beasts.
4 And thesuburbs of thecities, which ye shallgive unto theLevites, shall reach from thewall of thecity andoutward athousandcubits round about.
5 And ye shallmeasure fromwithout thecity on theeastside twothousandcubits, and on thesouthside twothousandcubits, and on thewestside twothousandcubits, and on thenorthside twothousandcubits; and thecity shall be in themidst: this shall be to them thesuburbs of the cities.
6 And among thecities which ye shallgive unto theLevites there shall besixcities forrefuge, which ye shallappoint for themanslayer, that he mayflee thither: and to them ye shalladdforty andtwo cities.
7 So all thecities which ye shallgive to theLevites shall beforty andeightcities: them shall ye give with their suburbs.
8 And thecities which ye shallgive shall be of thepossession of thechildren ofIsrael: from them that havemany ye shall givemany; but from them that havefew ye shall givefew: everyone shallgive of hiscities unto theLevitesaccording to hisinheritance which he inheriteth.
9 And theLORDspake untoMoses, saying,
10Speak unto thechildren ofIsrael, andsay unto them, When ye be comeoverJordan into theland of Canaan;
11 Then ye shallappoint youcities to becities ofrefuge for you; that theslayer mayflee thither, whichkilleth anyperson at unawares.
12 And they shall be unto youcities forrefuge from theavenger; that themanslayerdie not, until hestandbefore thecongregation in judgment.
13 And of thesecities which ye shallgivesixcities shall ye have for refuge.
14 Ye shallgivethreecities on thissideJordan, andthreecities shall yegive in theland ofCanaan, which shall becities of refuge.
15 Thesesixcities shall be arefuge, both for thechildren ofIsrael, and for thestranger, and for thesojourneramong them: that every one thatkilleth anypersonunawares may flee thither.
16 And if hesmite him with aninstrument ofiron, so that hedie, he is amurderer: themurderer shallsurely be put to death.
17 And if hesmite him withthrowing astone, wherewith he maydie, and hedie, he is amurderer: themurderer shallsurely be put to death.
18 Or if hesmite him with anhandweapon ofwood, wherewith he maydie, and hedie, he is amurderer: themurderer shallsurely be put to death.
19 Therevenger ofblood himself shallslay themurderer: when hemeeteth him,he shall slay him.
20 But if hethrust him ofhatred, orhurl at him by laying ofwait, that he die;
21 Or inenmitysmite him with hishand, that hedie: he thatsmote him shallsurely be put todeath; for he is amurderer: therevenger ofblood shallslay themurderer, when he meeteth him.
22 But if hethrust himsuddenlywithoutenmity, or havecast upon him anything without laying of wait,
23 Or with anystone, wherewith a man maydie,seeing himnot, andcast it upon him, that hedie, and was not hisenemy, neithersought his harm:
24 Then thecongregation shalljudge between theslayer and therevenger ofblood according to these judgments:
25 And thecongregation shalldeliver theslayer out of thehand of therevenger ofblood, and thecongregation shallrestore him to thecity of hisrefuge, whither he wasfled: and he shallabide in it unto thedeath of thehighpriest, which wasanointed with theholy oil.
26 But if theslayer shall at anytimecome without theborder of thecity of hisrefuge, whither he was fled;
27 And therevenger ofbloodfind himwithout theborders of thecity of hisrefuge, and therevenger ofbloodkill theslayer; he shall not be guilty of blood:
28 Because he should haveremained in thecity of hisrefuge until thedeath of thehighpriest: butafter thedeath of thehighpriest theslayer shallreturn into theland of his possession.
29 So these things shall be for astatute ofjudgment unto you throughout yourgenerations in all your dwellings.
30 Whosokilleth anyperson, themurderer shall be put todeath by themouth ofwitnesses: butonewitness shall nottestify against anyperson to cause him to die.
31 Moreover ye shalltake nosatisfaction for thelife of amurderer, which isguilty ofdeath: but he shall besurely put to death.
32 And ye shalltake nosatisfaction for him that isfled to thecity of hisrefuge, that he should comeagain todwell in theland, until thedeath of the priest.
33 So ye shall notpollute theland wherein ye are: forblood itdefileth theland: and theland cannot becleansed of theblood that isshed therein, but by theblood of him that shed it.
34Defile not therefore theland which ye shallinhabit,wherein Idwell: for I theLORDdwellamong thechildren of Israel.
