19 the avenger of blood, he shall put the murderer to death; when he meeteth him, he shall put him to death.
20 And if he thrust at him out of hatred, or hurl at him intentionally, so that he die,
21 or in hostility struck him with his hand, so that he died, he who struck him shall surely be put to death. He is a murderer. The avenger of blood shall put the murderer to death when he meets him.
22 But if he have thrust at him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him anything unintentionally,
23 or, when not seeing him, he causes any stone by which one may die to fall on him and he dies, yet he was not his enemy and was not seeking his evil,
24 then the assembly shall judge between the smiter and the avenger of blood, according to these judgments.
25 »If you are innocent, the community must protect you from that relative. They must take you back to the city of refuge you fled to. You must live there until the death of the chief priest who was anointed with the holy oil.
26 But if the killer surely goes out of the territory of the city of his refuge to which he fled,
27 and the avenger of blood find him outside the border of his city of refuge and the avenger of blood kills the manslayer, he will not be guilty of blood,
28 because he must live in the city of his refuge until the death of the high priest. But after the death of the high priest the killer will return to the land of his property.
29 These rules are to be your guide in judging through all your generations wherever you may be living.
30 " 'If anyone kills a person, the killer will be put to death according to the testimony of witnesses, but someone cannot die on testimony of one person.
31 And you shall take no ransom for the life of a murderer who is guilty of death. But he shall surely be put to death.
32 “'You shall take no ransom for him who has fled to his city of refuge, that he may come again to dwell in the land before the death of the priest.
33 “'So you shall not pollute the land where you live; for blood pollutes the land. No atonement can be made for the land, for the blood that is shed in it, but by the blood of him who shed it.
34 You shall not defile the land which you inhabit, where I dwell; for I, the LORD, dwell among the children of Israel.’”
