Numbers 35:16-24

[16] And if he smite  him with an instrument  of iron,  so that he die,  he is a murderer:  shall surely  [17] And if he smite  him with throwing  a stone,  wherewith he may die,  he is a murderer:  shall surely  [18] Or if he smite  him with an hand  weapon  of wood,  wherewith he may die,  he is a murderer:  shall surely  [19] The revenger  of blood  himself shall slay  the murderer:  when he meeteth  him, he  shall slay  him. [20] But if he thrust  him of hatred,  or hurl  at him by laying of wait,  that he die;  [21] Or in enmity  smite  him with his hand,  that he die:  he that smote  him shall surely  for he is a murderer:  the revenger  of blood  shall slay  the murderer,  when he meeteth  him. [22] But if he thrust  him suddenly  without  enmity,  or have cast  upon him any thing  without laying of wait,  [23] Or with any stone,  wherewith a man may die,  seeing  him not,  and cast  it upon him, that he die,  and was not his enemy,  neither sought  his harm:  [24] Then the congregation  shall judge  between the slayer  and the revenger  of blood  according to these judgments:
