21 Or being his enemy, strike him with his hand, and he die: the striker shall be guilty of murder: the kinsman of him that was slain as soon as he findeth him, shall kill him.
22 But if by chance medley, and without hatred,
23 And enmity, he do any of these things,
24 And this be proved in the hearing of the people, and the cause be debated between him that struck, and the next of kin:
25 The innocent shall be delivered from the hand of the revenger, and shall be brought back by sentence into the city, to which he had fled, and he shall abide there until the death of the high priest, that is anointed with the holy oil.
26 If the murderer be found without the limits of the cities that are appointed for the banished,
27 And be struck by him that is the avenger of blood: he shall not be guilty that killed him.
