7 and they shall answer and say, ‘Our hands did not shed this blood, nor did our eyes see it.

8 Atone for Your people Israel whom You have redeemed, O Yahweh, and do not place the guilt of innocent blood in the midst of Your people Israel.’ And the bloodguiltiness shall be atoned for them.

9 So you shall purge the guilt of innocent blood from your midst, when you do what is right in the eyes of Yahweh.
