Joshua 20:2-4
Lexham English Bible
2 “Speak to the Israelites,[a] saying, ‘Appoint for yourselves cities of refuge, of which I spoke to you through the hand of Moses. 3 Anyone who kills a person by accident or unintentionally[b] may flee there; they will be for yourselves a refuge from the avenger of blood. 4 The killer will flee to one of these cities, stand at the entrance of the gate of the city, and state his case to the elders of that city;[c] and they will take him[d] into the city and give him a place, and he will dwell among them.
