Chapter 35
And
the
Lord
spake
unto
Moses
in
the
plains
of
Moab
by
Jordan
near
Jericho,
saying,
2
Command
the
children
of
Israel,
that
they
give
unto
the
Levites
of
the
inheritance
of
their
possession
cities
to
dwell
in;
and
ye
shall
give
also
unto
the
Levites
suburbs
for
the
cities
round
about
them.
3
And
the
cities
shall
they
have
to
dwell
in;
and
the
suburbs
of
them
shall
be
for
their
cattle,
and
for
their
goods,
and
for
all
their
beasts.
4
And
the
suburbs
of
the
cities,
which
ye
shall
give
unto
the
Levites,
shall
reach
from
the
wall
of
the
city
and
outward
a
thousand
cubits
round
about.
5
And
ye
shall
measure
from
without
the
city
on
the
east
side
two
thousand
cubits,
and
on
the
south
side
two
thousand
cubits,
and
on
the
west
side
two
thousand
cubits,
and
on
the
north
side
two
thousand
cubits;
and
the
city
shall
be
in
the
midst:
this
shall
be
to
them
the
suburbs
of
the
cities.
6
And
among
the
cities
which
ye
shall
give
unto
the
Levites
there
shall
be
six
cities
for
refuge,
which
ye
shall
appoint
for
the
manslayer,
that
he
may
flee
thither:
and
to
them
ye
shall
add
forty
and
two
cities.
7
So
all
the
cities
which
ye
shall
give
to
the
Levites
shall
be
forty
and
eight
cities:
them
shall
ye
give
with
their
suburbs.
8
And
the
cities
which
ye
shall
give
shall
be
of
the
possession
of
the
children
of
Israel:
from
them
that
have
many
ye
shall
give
many;
but
from
them
that
have
few
ye
shall
give
few:
every
one
shall
give
of
his
cities
unto
the
Levites
according
to
his
inheritance
which
he
inheriteth.
9
And
the
Lord
spake
unto
Moses,
saying,
10
Speak
unto
the
children
of
Israel,
and
say
unto
them,
When
ye
be
come
over
Jordan
into
the
land
of
Canaan;
11
Then
ye
shall
appoint
you
cities
to
be
cities
of
refuge
for
you;
that
the
slayer
may
flee
thither,
which
killeth
any
person
at
unawares.
12
And
they
shall
be
unto
you
cities
for
refuge
from
the
avenger;
that
the
manslayer
die
not,
until
he
stand
before
the
congregation
in
judgment.
13
And
of
these
cities
which
ye
shall
give
six
cities
shall
ye
have
for
refuge.
14
Ye
shall
give
three
cities
on
this
side
Jordan,
and
three
cities
shall
ye
give
in
the
land
of
Canaan,
which
shall
be
cities
of
refuge.
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
killeth
any
person
unawares
may
flee
thither.
16
And
if
he
smite
him
with
an
instrument
of
iron,
so
that
he
die,
he
is
a
murderer:
the
murderer
shall
surely
be
put
to
death.
17
And
if
he
smite
him
with
throwing
a
stone,
wherewith
he
may
die,
and
he
die,
he
is
a
murderer:
the
murderer
shall
surely
be
put
to
death.
18
Or
if
he
smite
him
with
an
hand
weapon
of
wood,
wherewith
he
may
die,
and
he
die,
he
is
a
murderer:
the
murderer
shall
surely
be
put
to
death.
19
The
revenger
of
blood
himself
shall
slay
the
murderer:
when
he
meeteth
him,
he
shall
slay
him.
20
But
if
he
thrust
him
of
hatred,
or
hurl
at
him
by
laying
of
wait,
that
he
die;
21
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.
22
But
if
he
thrust
him
suddenly
without
enmity,
or
have
cast
upon
him
any
thing
without
laying
of
wait,
23
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:
24
Then
the
congregation
shall
judge
between
the
slayer
and
the
revenger
of
blood
according
to
these
judgments:
25
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.
26
But
if
the
slayer
shall
at
any
time
come
without
the
border
of
the
city
of
his
refuge,
whither
he
was
fled;
27
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:
28
Because
he
should
have
remained
in
the
city
of
his
refuge
until
the
death
of
the
high
priest:
but
after
the
death
of
the
high
priest
the
slayer
shall
return
into
the
land
of
his
possession.
29
So
these
things
shall
be
for
a
statute
of
judgment
unto
you
throughout
your
generations
in
all
your
dwellings.
30
Whoso
killeth
any
person,
the
murderer
shall
be
put
to
death
by
the
mouth
of
witnesses:
but
one
witness
shall
not
testify
against
any
person
to
cause
him
to
die.
31
Moreover
ye
shall
take
no
satisfaction
for
the
life
of
a
murderer,
which
is
guilty
of
death:
but
he
shall
be
surely
put
to
death.
32
And
ye
shall
take
no
satisfaction
for
him
that
is
fled
to
the
city
of
his
refuge,
that
he
should
come
again
to
dwell
in
the
land,
until
the
death
of
the
priest.
33
So
ye
shall
not
pollute
the
land
wherein
ye
are:
for
blood
it
defileth
the
land:
and
the
land
cannot
be
cleansed
of
the
blood
that
is
shed
therein,
but
by
the
blood
of
him
that
shed
it.
34
Defile
not
therefore
the
land
which
ye
shall
inhabit,
wherein
I
dwell:
for
I
the
Lord
dwell
among
the
children
of
Israel.
