Joshua 20:5-9

And if the avenger
<01350> (8802)
of blood
<01818>
pursue
<07291> (8799)
after
<0310>
him, then they shall not deliver
<05462> (8686)
the slayer
<07523> (8802)
up into his hand
<03027>_;
because he smote
<05221> (8689)
his neighbour
<07453>
unwittingly
<01097> <01847>_,
and hated
<08130> (8802)
him not beforetime
<08543> <08032>_.
And he shall dwell
<03427> (8804)
in that city
<05892>_,
until he stand
<05975> (8800)
before
<06440>
the congregation
<05712>
for judgment
<04941>_,
[and] until the death
<04194>
of the high
<01419>
priest
<03548>
that
<0834>
shall be in those days
<03117>_:
then shall the slayer
<07523> (8802)
return
<07725> (8799)_,
and come
<0935> (8804)
unto his own city
<05892>_,
and unto his own house
<01004>_,
unto the city
<05892>
from whence he fled
<05127> (8804)_.
And they appointed
<06942> (8686)
Kedesh
<06943>
in Galilee
<01551>
in mount
<02022>
Naphtali
<05321>_,
and Shechem
<07927>
in mount
<02022>
Ephraim
<0669>_,
and Kirjatharba
<07153>_,
which [is] Hebron
<02275>_,
in the mountain
<02022>
of Judah
<03063>_.
{appointed: Heb. sanctified}
And on the other side
<05676>
Jordan
<03383>
by Jericho
<03405>
eastward
<04217>_,
they assigned
<05414> (8804)
Bezer
<01221>
in the wilderness
<04057>
upon the plain
<04334>
out of the tribe
<04294>
of Reuben
<07205>_,
and Ramoth
<07216>
in Gilead
<01568>
out of the tribe
<04294>
of Gad
<01410>_,
and Golan
<01474>
in Bashan
<01316>
out of the tribe
<04294>
of Manasseh
<04519>_.
These were the cities
<05892>
appointed
<04152>
for all the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and for the stranger
<01616>
that sojourneth
<01481> (8802)
among
<08432>
them, that whosoever killeth
<05221> (8688)
[any] person
<05315>
at unawares
<07684>
might flee
<05127> (8800)
thither, and not die
<04191> (8799)
by the hand
<03027>
of the avenger
<01350> (8802)
of blood
<01818>_,
until he stood
<05975> (8800)
before
<06440>
the congregation
<05712>_.
