| 2 | your elders and judges must go out and measure how far it is to the cities in the vicinity of the corpse. | then your elders and your judges shall come out, and they shall measure the distance to the surrounding cities. | your elders and judges shall go out and measure the distance from the body to the neighboring towns. | |
| 3 | Then the elders of the city nearest to the corpse must take from the herd a heifer that has not been worked--that has never pulled with the yoke-- | And the elders of the city that is nearest to the slain man shall take a heifer that has never been worked and that has not pulled in a yoke. | Then the elders of the town nearest the body shall take a heifer that has never been worked and has never worn a yoke | |
| 4 | and bring the heifer down to a wadi with flowing water, to a valley that is neither plowed nor sown. There at the wadi they are to break the heifer's neck. | And the elders of that city shall bring the heifer down to a valley with running water, which is neither plowed nor sown, and shall break the heifer’s neck there in the valley. | and lead it down to a valley that has not been plowed or planted and where there is a flowing stream. There in the valley they are to break the heifer’s neck. | |
