This is the rule concerning anyone who kills a person and flees there for safety— anyone who kills a neighbor unintentionally, without malice aforethought.

Here is the rule about a person who kills someone. That person can run to one of those cities for safety. The rule applies to anyone who kills a neighbor they didn’t hate and didn’t mean to kill.

“ This is the provision for the manslayer, who by fleeing there may save his life. If anyone kills his neighbor unintentionally without having hated him in the past—

“ If someone kills another person unintentionally, without previous hostility, the slayer may flee to any of these cities to live in safety.

“ Here is the law concerning a case of someone who kills a person and flees there to save his life, having killed his neighbor accidentally without previously hating him:

“ Now this is the case of the one who commits manslaughter, who may flee there and live: when he kills his friend unintentionally, not hating him previously—

“ And this is the case of the manslayer who flees there, that he may live: Whoever kills his neighbor unintentionally, not having hated him in time past—

And this is the case of the manslayer, that shall flee thither and live: whoso killeth his neighbor unawares, and hated him not in time past;

“ Here is the law concerning a case of someone who kills a person and flees there to save his life, having killed his neighbor accidentally without previously hating him:

And this[ is] the case of the slayer, which shall flee thither, that he may live: Whoso killeth his neighbour ignorantly, whom he hated not in time past;

Now this is the law pertaining to one who flees there in order to live, if he has accidentally killed another without hating him at the time of the accident.

This is the case of the man slayer who shall flee there and live: Whoever kills his neighbor unintentionally, and didn’t hate him in time past—

凡誤殺人的，無論是以色列人還是寄居的外族人，都可以逃到這些城避難。「『倘若有人用鐵器打人致死，他就是故意殺人，必須被處死。倘若有人用足以致命的石頭打人致死，他就是故意殺人，必須被處死。倘若有人用足以致命的木器打人致死，他就是故意殺人，必須被處死。報仇的人要親自處死故意殺人者，一找到他就要處死他。倘若有人因怨恨把人推倒致死，或故意扔東西砸人致死，或因仇恨徒手傷人致死，他就是故意殺人，必須被處死，報仇的人一找到他就要處死他。「『倘若有人並非懷恨而是偶然推倒人致死，或無意間扔東西砸人致死，或因沒有看見而扔石頭砸人致死，鑒於他與對方並非仇人，只是誤殺，會眾就要照這些律例在誤殺人者與復仇者之間做出判決。

供素無冤仇卻誤殺他人者逃往避難。

這樣，你們就會知道路，因為你們從來沒有走過這條路。但你們要跟約櫃保持九百米的距離，不要走近約櫃。」

焚燒之地——陀斐特早已為亞述王預備好了，那裡又寬又深，堆著許多木柴，耶和華的氣必如同一股硫磺火點燃那些木柴。

從前，即使掃羅做王的時候，率領以色列人出征打仗的仍是你。你的上帝耶和華也曾應許讓你做祂以色列子民的牧者和首領。」

雅各發覺拉班對他的態度不如從前了。

否則，如果避難城離誤殺人者太遠，怒火中燒的報仇者就會追上去殺死他。其實他是不該死的，因為他與被誤殺的人素無冤仇。
