"But if by chance, and without hatred "
— Numbers 35:22, Catholic Public Domain Version
“But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait,”
“But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or hurled upon him anything without lying in wait, ”
“"'But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or hurled on him anything without lying in wait,”
““But if he strikes him suddenly, without enmity, or throws anything at him unintentionally,”
“But if by chance medley, and without hatred,”
“But if a man has given a wound to another suddenly and not in hate, or without design has sent something against him,”
“But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait,”
The close relative of the deceased shall put to death the murderer; as soon as he apprehends him, he shall put him to death.
If, out of hatred, anyone assaults a man, or throws anything at him with ill intent,
or, while being his enemy, strikes him with his hand, and so he has died, the attacker shall be guilty of murder. The kinsman of the deceased, as soon as he finds him, shall cut his throat.
But if by chance, and without hatred
or animosity, he will have done any of these things,
and this has been proven in the hearing of the people, and the questions have been aired, between the one who struck and the close relative,
then the innocent one shall be freed from the hand of the revenger, and he shall be returned by this judgment into the city to which he had fled, and he shall stay there until the high priest, who has been anointed with the holy oil, dies.
