CHAP. XXXV.
1 Eight and fourtie Cities for the Leuites with their suburbs, and measure thereof. 6 Sixe of them are to be cities of refuge. 9 The lawes of murder. 31 No satisfaction for murder.
1And the Lord spake vnto Moses in the plaines of Moab by Iordane, neere Iericho, saying,
2Command the children of Israel, that they giue vnto the Leuites of the inheritance of their possession, cities to dwell in: and yee shall giue also vnto the Leuites suburbs for the cities round about them.2
6And among the cities which yee shal giue vnto the Leuites, there shalbe sixe cities for refuge, which ye shall appoint for the manslayer, that hee may flee thither: And to them ye shall adde fourty and two cities.6
8And the cities which ye shal giue, shalbe of the possession of the children of Israel: from them that haue many ye shall giue many; but from them that haue few, ye shall giue few. Euery one shal giue of his cities vnto the Leuites, according to his inheritance which he inheriteth.8
9ΒΆ And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
10Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, When ye bee come ouer Iordane, into the land of Canaan:10
11Then ye shall appoint you cities, to be cities of refuge for you; that the slayer may flee thither which killeth any person at vnawares.11
13And of these cities which ye shall giue, sixe cities shall ye haue for refuge.
16And if he smite him with an instrument of Iron, (so that he die,) hee is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.16
17And if he smite him with throwing a stone, (wherewith hee may die) and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.17
19The reuenger of blood himselfe shall slay the murtherer: when he meeteth him, he shall slay him.
20But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurle at him by laying of waite that he die,20
22But if hee thrust him suddenly without enmitie, or haue cast vpon him any thing without laying of wait,22
27And the reuenger of blood finde him without the borders of the citie of his refuge, and the reuenger of blood kill the slayer, he shall not be guiltie of blood:27
30Who so killeth any person, the murderer shall be put to death, by the mouth of witnesses: but one witnesse shall not testifie against any person, to cause him to die.30
31Moreouer, yee shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, which is guiltie of death, but he shalbe surely put to death.31
33So ye shall not pollute the lande wherein ye are: for blood, it defileth the land: and the land cannot bee cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.33
