16 And if any man smyte another with an instrument of iron that he dye, then is he a murtherer, and the murtherer shall dye for it. 17 If he smyte hym with throwyng a stone, that a man may dye with, and if he dye, he that smote hym is a murtherer: let the same murtherer be slayne therefore. 18 Or if he smyte hym with a handweapon of wood that a man may dye with, then if he dye, he is a murtherer: let the same murtherer be slaine therfore. 19 The reuenger of blood him selfe shal slay the murtherer: when he meeteth hym, he shall slay hym. 20 But if he thrust hym of hate, or hurle at hym by laying of wayte, that he dye, 21 Or smyte hym with his hande of enmitie that he dye: he that smote hym shall dye the death, for he is a murtherer: the reuenger of the blood shall slay the murtherer when he meeteth hym.
