That the slayer H7523 might flee H5127 thither, H8033 which H834 should kill H7523 his neighbor H7453 unawares, H1097 H1847 and hated H8130 him not in times H8543 past; H8032 and that fleeing H5127 to one H259 of these H411 cities H5892 he might live: H2425

These H428 six H8337 cities H5892 shall be a refuge, H4733 both for the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 and for the stranger, H1616 and for the sojourner H8453 among H8432 them: that every H3605 one that kills H5221 any person H5315 unawares H7684 may flee H5127 thither. H8033

And if H518 he smite H5221 him with throwing H3027 a stone, H68 with which H834 he may die, H4191 and he die, H4191 he is a murderer: H7523 the murderer H7523 shall surely be put to death. H4191

The revenger H1350 of blood H1818 himself H1931 shall slay H4191 the murderer: H7523 when he meets H6293 him, he shall slay H4191 him.

Or H176 in enmity H342 smite H5221 him with his hand, H3027 that he die: H4191 he that smote H5221 him shall surely be put to death; H4191 for he is a murderer: H7523 the revenger H1350 of blood H1818 shall slay H4191 the murderer, H7523 when he meets H6293 him.

Or H176 with any H3605 stone, H68 with which H834 a man may die, H4191 seeing H7200 him not, and cast H5307 it on him, that he die, H4191 and was not his enemy, H341 neither H3808 sought H1245 his harm: H7451

Lest H6435 the avenger H1350 of the blood H1818 pursue H7291 the slayer, H7523 while H3588 his heart H3824 is hot, H3179 and overtake H5381 him, because H3588 the way H1870 is long, H7235 and slay H5221 him; whereas he was not worthy of death, H4194 inasmuch H3588 as he hated H8130 him not in time H8543 H8032 past. H8032

And Jacob H3290 beheld H7200 the countenance H6440 of Laban, H3837 and, behold, H2009 it was not toward him as before. H8543

Yet H389 there shall be a space H7350 between H996 you and it, about two thousand H505 cubits H520 by measure: H4060 come H7126 not near H7126 to it, that you may know H3045 the way H1870 by which H834 you must go: H3212 for you have not passed H5674 this way H1870 heretofore. H8543

And moreover H1571 in time H8543 past, H8032 even H1571 when Saul H7586 was king, H4428 you were he that led H3318 out and brought H935 in Israel: H3478 and the LORD H3068 your God H430 said H559 to you, You shall feed H7462 my people H5971 Israel, H3478 and you shall be ruler H5057 over H5921 my people H5971 Israel. H3478

For Tophet H8613 is ordained H6186 of old; H865 yes, H1571 for the king H4428 it is prepared; H3559 he has made it deep H6009 and large: H7337 the pile H4071 thereof is fire H784 and much H7235 wood; H6086 the breath H5397 of the LORD, H3068 like a stream H5158 of brimstone, H1614 does kindle H1197 it.
