Numbers 35:29-31

Complete Jewish Bible

²⁹ These things shall constitute your standard for judgment through all your generations, wherever you live.

³⁰ “‘If anyone kills someone, the murderer is to be put to death upon the testimony of witnesses; but the testimony of only one witness will not suffice to cause a person to be put to death. ³¹ Also, you are not to accept a ransom in lieu of the life of a murderer condemned to death; rather, he must be put to death.
