King James Version with Apocrypha
"Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments:"
— Numbers 35:24, King James Version with Apocrypha
“Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments:”
“then the congregation shall judge between the smiter and the avenger of blood according to these ordinances; ”
“then the congregation shall judge between the striker and the avenger of blood according to these ordinances;”
“then the community must judge between the slayer and the avenger of blood according to these decisions.”
“And this be proved in the hearing of the people, and the cause be debated between him that struck, and the next of kin:”
“Then let the meeting of the people be judge between the man responsible for the death and him who has the right of punishment for blood, acting by these rules:”
Or in enmity smite him with his hand, that he die: he that smote him shall surely be put to death; for he is a murderer: the revenger of blood shall slay the murderer, when he meeteth him.
But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait,
Or with any stone, wherewith a man may die, seeing him not, and cast it upon him, that he die, and was not his enemy, neither sought his harm:
Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments:
And the congregation shall deliver the slayer out of the hand of the revenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore him to the city of his refuge, whither he was fled: and he shall abide in it unto the death of the high priest, which was anointed with the holy oil.
But if the slayer shall at any time come without the border of the city of his refuge, whither he was fled;
And the revenger of blood find him without the borders of the city of his refuge, and the revenger of blood kill the slayer; he shall not be guilty of blood:
