*
That innocent blood be not shed in thy land ,
which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance ,
and so blood be upon thee .
*
But if any man hate his neighbour ,
and lie in wait for him ,
and rise up against him ,
and smite him mortally that he die ,
and fleeth into one of these cities :
*
Then the elders of his city shall send and fetch him thence ,
and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood ,
that he may die .
*
Thine eye shall not pity him ,
but thou shalt put away the guilt of innocent blood from Israel Yisra #
el #,
that it may go well with thee .
