9 And Jehovah will speak to Moses, saying, 10 Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, When ye are passing over Jordan to the land of Canaan, 11 And build ye to you cities; cities of refuge shall they be to you; and the slayer to flee there smiting a soul in error. 12 And they to you the cities for refuge from the nearest relative; and the slayer shall not die till his standing before the assembly for judgment, 13 And the cities which ye shall give, six cities of refuge shall be to you. 14 Three cities shall ye give from beyond Jordan, and three cities shall ye give in the land of Canaan; cities of refuge shall they be. 15 For the sons of Israel and for the stranger, and for the sojourner in the midst of you shall be six cities: these for refuge to flee there all smiting a soul in error.
