4:42 Anyone who accidentally killed someone ¹  without hating him at the time of the accident ²  could flee to one of those cities and be safe.

Deuteronomy 13:7

13:7 the gods of the surrounding people (whether near you or far from you, from one end of the earth ³  to the other).

Deuteronomy 28:26

28:26 Your carcasses will be food for every bird of the sky and wild animal of the earth, and there will be no one to chase them off.

[4:42]  ¹ tn Heb “the slayer who slew his neighbor without knowledge.”

[4:42]  ² tn Heb “yesterday and a third (day).” The point is that there was no animosity between the two parties at the time of the accident and therefore no motive for the killing.

[13:7]  ³ tn Or “land” (so NIV, NCV); the same Hebrew word can be translated “land” or “earth.”
