Numbers 35:25-30
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 35
25
And the congregation shall save the one who committed manslaughter from the hand of the blood avenger, and the congregation shall return him to his city of refuge to which he fled; and he shall live in it until the death of the high priest who was anointed with the holy oil.
26
But if at any time he goes beyond the border of his city of refuge to which he flees,
27
and the blood avenger finds him outside the border of his city of refuge, and the blood avenger kills him, he will not be guilty of bloodshed,
28
because he should have remained in his city of refuge until the death of the high priest. But after the death of the high priest the one who committed manslaughter may return to the land of his property.
29
‘These things shall be a statutory ordinance for you throughout your generations in all your dwelling places.
30
‘
If
anyone kills a person, the murderer shall be put to death on the testimony of witnesses, but no person shall be put to death on the testimony of
only
one witness.
King James Version
Chapter 35
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.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 35
25
The assembly is to protect the one who kills someone from the avenger of blood. Then the assembly will return him to the city of refuge he fled to, and he must live there until the death of the high priest who was anointed with the holy oil.
26
"If the one who kills someone ever goes outside the border of the city of refuge he fled to,
27
and the avenger of blood finds him outside the border of his city of refuge and kills him, the avenger will not be guilty of bloodshed,
28
for the one who killed a person was supposed to live in his city of refuge until the death of the high priest. Only after the death of the high priest may the one who has killed a person return to the land he possesses.
29
These instructions will be a statutory ordinance for you throughout your generations wherever you live.
30
"If anyone kills a person, the murderer is to be put to death based on the word of witnesses. But no one is to be put to death based on the testimony of one witness.
New Living Translation
Chapter 35
25
The community must protect the slayer from the avenger and must escort the slayer back to live in the city of refuge to which he fled. There he must remain until the death of the high priest, who was anointed with the sacred oil.
26
But if the slayer ever leaves the limits of the city of refuge,
27
and the avenger finds him outside the city and kills him, it will not be considered murder.
28
The slayer should have stayed inside the city of refuge until the death of the high priest. But after the death of the high priest, the slayer may return to his own property.
29
These are legal requirements for you to observe from generation to generation, wherever you may live.
30
All murderers must be put to death, but only if evidence is presented by more than one witness. No one may be put to death on the testimony of only one witness.
English Standard Version
Chapter 35
25
And the congregation shall rescue the manslayer from the hand of the avenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore him to his city of refuge to which he had fled, and he shall live in it until the death of the high priest who was anointed with the holy oil.
26
But if the manslayer shall at any time go beyond the boundaries of his city of refuge to which he fled,
27
and the avenger of blood finds him outside the boundaries of his city of refuge, and the avenger of blood kills the manslayer, he shall not be guilty of blood.
28
For he must remain in his city of refuge until the death of the high priest, but after the death of the high priest the manslayer may return to the land of his possession.
29
And these things shall be for a statute and rule for you throughout your generations in all your dwelling places.
30
"If anyone kills a person, the murderer shall be put to death on the evidence of witnesses. But no person shall be put to death on the testimony of one witness.
New International Version
Chapter 35
25
The assembly must protect the one accused of murder from the avenger of blood and send the accused back to the city of refuge to which they fled. The accused must stay there until the death of the high priest, who was anointed with the holy oil.
26
" ‘But if the accused ever goes outside the limits of the city of refuge to which they fled
27
and the avenger of blood finds them outside the city, the avenger of blood may kill the accused without being guilty of murder.
28
The accused must stay in the city of refuge until the death of the high priest; only after the death of the high priest may they return to their own property.
29
" ‘This is to have the force of law for you throughout the generations to come, wherever you live.
30
" ‘Anyone who kills a person is to be put to death as a murderer only on the testimony of witnesses. But no one is to be put to death on the testimony of only one witness.
New King James Version
Chapter 35
25
So the congregation shall deliver the manslayer from the hand of the avenger of blood, and the congregation shall return him to the city of refuge where he had fled, and he shall remain there until the death of the high priest who was anointed with the holy oil.
26
But if the manslayer at any time goes outside the limits of the city of refuge where he fled,
27
and the avenger of blood finds him outside the limits of his city of refuge, and the avenger of blood kills the manslayer, he shall not be guilty of blood,
28
because he should have remained in his city of refuge until the death of the high priest. But after the death of the high priest the manslayer may return to the land of his possession.
29
‘And these
things
shall be a statute of judgment to you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
30
Whoever kills a person, the murderer shall be put to death on the testimony of witnesses; but one witness is not
sufficient
testimony against a person for the death
penalty.
