rsv@Deuteronomy:3:19 @ But your wives, your little ones, and your cattle (I know that you have many cattle) shall remain in the cities which I have given you,

rsv@Deuteronomy:4:41 @ Then Moses set apart three cities in the east beyond the Jordan,

rsv@Deuteronomy:4:42 @ that the manslayer might flee there, who kills his neighbor unintentionally, without being at enmity with him in time past, and that by fleeing to one of these cities he might save his life:

rsv@Deuteronomy:6:10 @ "And when the LORD your God brings you into the land which he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give you, with great and goodly cities, which you did not build,

rsv@Deuteronomy:9:1 @ "Hear, O Israel; you are to pass over the Jordan this day, to go in to dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves, cities great and fortified up to heaven,

rsv@Deuteronomy:19:1 @ "When the LORD your God cuts off the nations whose land the LORD your God gives you, and you dispossess them and dwell in their cities and in their houses,

rsv@Deuteronomy:19:2 @ you shall set apart three cities for you in the land which the LORD your God gives you to possess.

rsv@Deuteronomy:19:5 @ as when a man goes into the forest with his neighbor to cut wood, and his hand swings the axe to cut down a tree, and the head slips from the handle and strikes his neighbor so that he dies--he may flee to one of these cities and save his life;

rsv@Deuteronomy:19:7 @ Therefore I command you, You shall set apart three cities.

rsv@Deuteronomy:19:9 @ provided you are careful to keep all this commandment, which I command you this day, by loving the LORD your God and by walking ever in his ways--then you shall add three other cities to these three,

rsv@Deuteronomy:19:11 @ "But if any man hates his neighbor, and lies in wait for him, and attacks him, and wounds him mortally so that he dies, and the man flees into one of these cities,

rsv@Deuteronomy:20:15 @ Thus you shall do to all the cities which are very far from you, which are not cities of the nations here.

rsv@Deuteronomy:20:16 @ But in the cities of these peoples that the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance, you shall save alive nothing that breathes,

rsv@Deuteronomy:21:2 @ then your elders and your judges shall come forth, and they shall measure the distance to the cities which are around him that is slain;

rsv@Joshua:9:17 @ And the people of Israel set out and reached their cities on the third day. Now their cities were Gibeon, Chephi'rah, Be-er'oth, and Kir'iath-je'arim.

rsv@Joshua:10:19 @ but do not stay there yourselves, pursue your enemies, fall upon their rear, do not let them enter their cities; for the LORD your God has given them into your hand."

rsv@Joshua:10:20 @ When Joshua and the men of Israel had finished slaying them with a very great slaughter, until they were wiped out, and when the remnant which remained of them had entered into the fortified cities,

rsv@Joshua:11:12 @ And all the cities of those kings, and all their kings, Joshua took, and smote them with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them, as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded.

rsv@Joshua:11:13 @ But none of the cities that stood on mounds did Israel burn, except Hazor only; that Joshua burned.

rsv@Joshua:11:14 @ And all the spoil of these cities and the cattle, the people of Israel took for their booty; but every man they smote with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them, and they did not leave any that breathed.

rsv@Joshua:11:21 @ And Joshua came at that time, and wiped out the Anakim from the hill country, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the hill country of Judah, and from all the hill country of Israel; Joshua utterly destroyed them with their cities.

rsv@Joshua:14:12 @ So now give me this hill country of which the LORD spoke on that day; for you heard on that day how the Anakim were there, with great fortified cities: it may be that the LORD will be with me, and I shall drive them out as the LORD said."

rsv@Joshua:15:9 @ then the boundary extends from the top of the mountain to the spring of the Waters of Nephto'ah, and from there to the cities of Mount Ephron; then the boundary bends round to Ba'alah (that is, Kir'iath-je'arim);
