Establishing the Cities of Refuge

9

And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

10

Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, When ye be come ouer Iorden into the land of Canaan,

11

Ye shall appoint you cities, to bee cities of refuge for you, that the slayer, which slayeth any person vnwares, may flee thither.

12

And these cities shalbe for you a refuge from the auenger, that he which killeth, die not, vntill he stand before the Congregation in iudgement.

13

And of the cities which ye shall giue, sixe cities shall ye haue for refuge.

14

Ye shall appoint three on this side Iorden, and ye shall appoint three cities in the lande of Canaan which shalbe cities of refuge.

15

These six cities shalbe a refuge for the children of Israel, and for the stranger, and for him that dwelleth among you, that euery one which killeth any person vnwares, may flee thither.
