Numbers 35:22-29

[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:  [25] And the congregation  shall deliver  the slayer  out of the hand  of the revenger  of blood,  and the congregation  shall restore  him to the city  of his refuge,  whither he was fled:  and he shall abide  in it unto the death  of the high  priest,  which was anointed  with the holy  oil.  [26] But if the slayer  shall at any time  without the border  of the city  of his refuge,  whither he was fled;  [27] And the revenger  of blood  find  him without  the borders  of the city  of his refuge,  and the revenger  of blood  kill  he shall not be guilty of blood:  [28] Because he should have remained  in the city  of his refuge  until the death  of the high  priest:  but after  the death  of the high  priest  the slayer  shall return  into the land  of his possession.  [29] So these things shall be for a statute  of judgment  unto you throughout your generations  in all your dwellings.
