15 These six cities shall be a refuge, both for the children of Israel, and for the stranger, and for the sojourner among them: that every one that kills any person unintentionally may flee there.
16 But if he strikes him with an instrument of iron, so that he dies, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
17 And if he strikes him with throwing a stone, by which he may die, and he dies, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
18 Or if he strikes him with a hand weapon of wood, by which he may die, and he dies, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
19 The avenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he meets him, he shall slay him.
20 But if he pushes him from hatred, or hurls at him by lying in wait, that he dies;
21 Or in enmity strikes him with his hand, that he dies: he that struck him shall surely be put to death; for he is a murderer: the avenger of blood shall slay the murderer, when he meets him.
