5 You are also to measure two thousand cubits outside the city on the east, two thousand on the south, two thousand on the west, and two thousand on the north, with the city in the center. These areas will serve as larger pasturelands for the cities.

6 Six of the cities you give the Levites are to be appointed as cities of refuge, to which a manslayer may flee. In addition to these, give the Levites forty-two other cities.

8 The cities that you apportion from the territory of the Israelites should be given to the Levites in proportion to the inheritance of each tribe: more from a larger tribe and less from a smaller one.”

and [the] city which to give: give from possession son: descendant/people Israel from with [the] many to multiply and from with [the] little to diminish man: anyone like/as lip: according inheritance his which to inherit to give: give from city his to/for Levi

9 Then the LORD said to Moses,

and to speak: speak LORD to(wards) Moses to/for to say

10 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When you cross the Jordan into the land of Canaan,

to speak: speak to(wards) son: descendant/people Israel and to say to(wards) them for you(m. p.) to pass [obj] [the] Jordan land: country/planet [to] Canaan

11 designate cities to serve as your cities of refuge, so that a person who kills someone unintentionally may flee there.

and to meet to/for you city city refuge to be to/for you and to flee there [to] to murder to smite soul: person in/on/with unintentionally

12 You are to have these cities as a refuge from the avenger, so that the manslayer will not die until he stands trial before the assembly.

and to be to/for you [the] city to/for refuge from to redeem: avenge and not to die [the] to murder till to stand: stand he to/for face: before [the] congregation to/for justice: judgement

13 The cities you select will be your six cities of refuge.

and [the] city which to give: give six city refuge to be to/for you

14 Select three cities across the Jordan and three in the land of Canaan as cities of refuge.

[obj] three [the] city to give: give from side: beyond to/for Jordan and [obj] three [the] city to give: give in/on/with land: country/planet Canaan city refuge to be

15 These six cities will serve as a refuge for the Israelites and for the foreigner or stranger among them, so that anyone who kills a person unintentionally may flee there.

16 If, however, anyone strikes a person with an iron object and kills him, he is a murderer; the murderer must surely be put to death.

and if in/on/with article/utensil iron to smite him and to die to murder he/she/it to die to die [the] to murder

17 Or if anyone has in his hand a stone of deadly size, and he strikes and kills another, he is a murderer; the murderer must surely be put to death.

and if in/on/with stone hand: tool which to die in/on/with her to smite him and to die to murder he/she/it to die to die [the] to murder

18 If anyone has in his hand a deadly object of wood, and he strikes and kills another, he is a murderer; the murderer must surely be put to death.

or in/on/with article/utensil tree: stick hand: tool which to die in/on/with him to smite him and to die to murder he/she/it to die to die [the] to murder

19 The avenger of blood is to put the murderer to death; when he finds him, he is to kill him.

to redeem: avenge [the] blood he/she/it to die [obj] [the] to murder in/on/with to fall on he in/on/with him he/she/it to die him

20 Likewise, if anyone maliciously pushes another or intentionally throws an object at him and kills him,

and if in/on/with hating to thrust him or to throw upon him in/on/with ambush and to die

21 or if in hostility he strikes him with his hand and he dies, the one who struck him must surely be put to death; he is a murderer. When the avenger of blood finds the murderer, he is to kill him.

or in/on/with enmity to smite him in/on/with hand his and to die to die to die [the] to smite to murder he/she/it to redeem: avenge [the] blood to die [obj] [the] to murder in/on/with to fall on he in/on/with him

22 But if anyone pushes a person suddenly, without hostility, or throws an object at him unintentionally,

and if in/on/with suddenness in/on/with not enmity to thrust him or to throw upon him all article/utensil in/on/with not ambush

23 or without looking drops a heavy stone that kills him, but he was not an enemy and did not intend to harm him,

or in/on/with all stone which to die in/on/with her in/on/with not to see: see and to fall: fall upon him and to die and he/she/it not enemy to/for him and not to seek distress: harm his

24 then the congregation must judge between the slayer and the avenger of blood according to these ordinances.

and to judge [the] congregation between [the] to smite and between to redeem: avenge [the] blood upon [the] justice: judgement [the] these

25 The assembly is to protect the manslayer from the hand of the avenger of blood. Then the assembly will return him to the city of refuge to which he fled, and he must live there until the death of the high priest, who was anointed with the holy oil.

and to rescue [the] congregation [obj] [the] to murder from hand to redeem: avenge [the] blood and to return: rescue [obj] him [the] congregation to(wards) city refuge his which to flee there [to] and to dwell in/on/with her till death [the] priest [the] great: large which to anoint [obj] him in/on/with oil [the] holiness

26 But if the manslayer ever goes outside the limits of the city of refuge to which he fled

and if to come out: come to come out: extends [the] to murder [obj] border: boundary city refuge his which to flee there [to]

27 and the avenger of blood finds him outside of his city of refuge and kills him, then the avenger will not be guilty of bloodshed

and to find [obj] him to redeem: avenge [the] blood from outside to/for border: boundary city refuge his and to murder to redeem: avenge [the] blood [obj] [the] to murder nothing to/for him blood

28 because the manslayer must remain in his city of refuge until the death of the high priest. Only after the death of the high priest may he return to the land he owns.

for in/on/with city refuge his to dwell till death [the] priest [the] great: large and after death [the] priest [the] great: large to return: return [the] to murder to(wards) land: country/planet possession his

31 You are not to accept a ransom for the life of a murderer who deserves to die; he must surely be put to death.

and not to take: recieve ransom to/for soul: life to murder which he/she/it wicked to/for to die for to die to die

32 Nor should you accept a ransom for the person who flees to a city of refuge and allow him to return and live on his own land before the death of the high priest.

33 Do not pollute the land where you live, for bloodshed pollutes the land, and no atonement can be made for the land on which the blood is shed, except by the blood of the one who shed it.
