Exodus 21:12-14

International Children’s Bible

Injuries

¹² “Anyone who hits a person and kills him must be put to death. ¹³ But if a person kills someone accidentally, God allowed that to happen. So the person must go to a place I will choose. ¹⁴ A person might plan and murder another person on purpose. Put him to death, even if he has run to my altar for safety.
