Rotherham(i)
15 For the sons of Israel, and for the sojourner, and for the settler in your midst, shall these six cities serve, as places of refuge,––that any one may flee thither who hath slain a person, by mistake.
16 If, then, with an instrument of iron, he smote him, and he died, a manslayer, he is,––a manslayer, shall surely die.
17 Or, if, with a stone thrown by hand, whereby one might die, he smote him, and he died, a manslayer, he is,––the manslayer, shall surely die.
18 Or, if, with hand–weapon of wood, wherewith one might die, he smote him, and he died, a manslayer, he is,––the manslayer, shall surely die.
19 The blood–redeemer, he, shall put to death the manslayer,––when he lighteth upon him, he, shall put him to death.
20 Or, if, with hate, he shall thrust at him, or hurl at him designedly, and he have died,
21 or, if, with enmity, he hath smitten him with his hand, and he is dead, then shall he that dealt the blow, be surely put to death, a manslayer, he is––the blood–redeemer, shall put to death the manslayer, when he lighteth upon him.
22 But, if, suddenly, without enmity, he shall thrust him, or hurl upon him any missile, without design;
23 Or with any stone whereby one might die, without seeing [him], and it fall upon him, and he dieth; he, not being at enmity with him, nor seeking to harm him,
24 then shall the assembly judge, between him that smote and the blood–redeemer,––according to these regulations;
25 and the assembly shall rescue the manslayer out of the hand of the blood–redeemer, and the assembly shall restore him unto his city of refuge, whither he had fled,––and he shall dwell therein, until the death of the high priest, who hath been anointed with the hallowing oil.
26 But, if the manslayer, go out, of the bounds of his city of refuge, whereinto he hath fled;
27 and the blood–redeemer, find him, outside the bounds of his city of refuge, then may the blood–redeemer slay the slayer, without being guilty of blood;
28 for, in his city of refuge, should he have remained, until the death of the high priest,––and, after the death of the high priest, might he have returned into the land which he doth possess.
