Deuteronomy 21:1-9

If [one] be found
<04672> (8735)

slain
<02491>

in the land
<0127>

which the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

giveth
<05414> (8802)

thee to possess
<03423> (8800)

it, lying
<05307> (8802)

in the field
<07704>_,

[and] it be not known
<03045> (8738)

who hath slain
<05221> (8689)

him:

Then thy elders
<02205>

and thy judges
<08199> (8802)

shall come forth
<03318> (8804)_,

and they shall measure
<04058> (8804)

unto the cities
<05892>

which [are] round about
<05439>

him that is slain
<02491>_:

And it shall be, [that] the city
<05892>

[which is] next
<07138>

unto the slain man
<02491>_,

even the elders
<02205>

of that city
<05892>

shall take
<03947> (8804)

an heifer
<01241> <05697>_,

which hath not been wrought with
<05647> (8795)_,

[and] which hath not drawn
<04900> (8804)

in the yoke
<05923>_;

And the elders
<02205>

of that city
<05892>

shall bring down
<03381> (8689)

the heifer
<05697>

unto a rough
<0386>

valley
<05158>_,

which is neither eared
<05647> (8735)

nor sown
<02232> (8735)_,

and shall strike off
<06202> (0)

the heifer's
<05697>

neck
<06202> (8804)

there in the valley
<05158>_:

And the priests
<03548>

the sons
<01121>

of Levi
<03878>

shall come near
<05066> (8738)_;

for them the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

hath chosen
<0977> (8804)

to minister
<08334> (8763)

unto him, and to bless
<01288> (8763)

in the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_;

and by their word
<06310>

shall every controversy
<07379>

and every stroke
<05061>

be [tried]: {word: Heb. mouth}

And all the elders
<02205>

of that city
<05892>_,

[that are] next
<07138>

unto the slain
<02491>

[man], shall wash
<07364> (8799)

their hands
<03027>

over the heifer
<05697>

that is beheaded
<06202> (8803)

in the valley
<05158>_:

And they shall answer
<06030> (8804)

and say
<0559> (8804)_,

Our hands
<03027>

have not shed
<08210> (8804)

this blood
<01818>_,

neither have our eyes
<05869>

seen
<07200> (8804)

[it].

Be merciful
<03722> (8761)_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

unto thy people
<05971>

Israel
<03478>_,

whom thou hast redeemed
<06299> (8804)_,

and lay
<05414> (8799)

not innocent
<05355>

blood
<01818>

unto thy people
<05971>

of Israel's
<03478>

charge
<07130>_.

And the blood
<01818>

shall be forgiven
<03722> (8694)

them. {unto thy people of: Heb. in the midst, etc}

So shalt thou put away
<01197> (8762)

the [guilt of] innocent
<05355>

blood
<01818>

from among
<07130>

you, when thou shalt do
<06213> (8799)

[that which is] right
<03477>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_.
