13Six of the towns which you give will be such safe places;
14Three on the other side of Jordan and three in the land of Canaan, to be safe places for flight.
15For the children of Israel and for the man from another country who is living among them, these six towns are to be safe places, where anyone causing the death of another through error may go in flight.
16But if a man gives another man a blow with an iron instrument, causing his death, he is a taker of life and is certainly to be put to death.
17Or if he gives him a blow with a stone in his hand, causing his death, he is a taker of life and is certainly to be put to death.
18Or if he gave him blows with a wood instrument in his hands, causing his death, he is a taker of life and is certainly to be put to death.
19He whose right it is to give punishment for blood, may himself put to death the taker of life when he comes face to face with him.
