Deuteronomy 19:2-4
Lexham English Bible
2 you shall set apart three cities for you in the midst of your land that Yahweh your God is giving to you to take possession of it. 3 You shall prepare the roads[a] for yourselves, and you shall divide the regions of your land into thirds that Yahweh your God gives you as a possession, so that it will be available for any manslayer to flee there.[b]
4 “Now this is the case of the manslayer who may flee there and live there who has killed his neighbor unintentionally,[c] and he did not hate him previously.[d]
