26

'But if the manslayer at any time goes beyond the border of his city of refuge to which he may flee,

27

and the blood avenger finds him outside the border of his city of refuge, and the blood avenger kills the manslayer, he will not be guilty of blood

'Moreover, you shall not take ransom for the life of a murderer who is guilty of death, but he shall surely be put to death.

32
