Numbers 35:27-29

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁷ ‘And the avenger of blood finds him outside the borders of the city of his refuge. And the avenger of blood kills the murderer, he shall be guiltless,

²⁸ ‘because he should have remained in the city of his refuge until the death of the High Priest. But after the death of the High Priest, the killer shall return to the land of his possession.

²⁹ ‘So these things shall be a Law of Judgment to you, throughout your generations, in all your dwellings.
