@
Speak
to the
children
of
Israel
,
saying
, Appoint
out
for you
cities
of
refuge
, whereof I
spake
unto you by the
hand
of
Moses
:
strkjv@Joshua:20:3
@ That the
slayer
that
killeth
any
person
unawares
and
unwittingly
may
flee
thither: and they shall be your
refuge
from the
avenger
of
blood
.
strkjv@Joshua:20:4
@ And when he that doth
flee
unto
one
of those
cities
shall
stand
at the
entering
of the
gate
of the
city
, and shall
declare
his
cause
in the
ears
of the
elders
of that
city
, they shall
take
him into the
city
unto them, and
give
him a
place
, that he may
dwell
among them.
strkjv@Joshua:20:5
@ And if the
avenger
of
blood
pursue
after
him, then they shall not
deliver
the
slayer
up into his
hand
; because he
smote
his
neighbour
unwittingly
b@
, and
hated
him not
beforetime
t@
.
strkjv@Joshua:20:6
@ And he shall
dwell
in that
city
, until he
stand
before
the
congregation
for
judgment
, and until the
death
of the
high
priest
that
shall be in those
days
: then shall the
slayer
return
, and
come
unto his own
city
, and unto his own
house
, unto the
city
from whence he
fled
.
strkjv@Joshua:20:7
@ And they
appointed
Kedesh
in
Galilee
in
mount
Naphtali
, and
Shechem
in
mount
Ephraim
, and
Kirjatharba
Qiryath, which is
Hebron
