Numbers 35:14-16
Evangelical Heritage Version
14 You are to set aside three cities east of the Jordan and three cities in the land of Canaan. They will serve as cities of refuge. 15 These six cities will serve as a refuge for Israelites, for resident aliens, and for temporary residents living among them so that everyone who has taken someone’s life unintentionally may flee there.
16 But if a person strikes someone with an iron object so that he dies, that person is a murderer. The murderer must certainly be put to death.
