Deuteronomy 21:7 in Context — Deuteronomy 21

5 Entonces vendrán los sacerdotes hijos de Leví, porque á ellos escogió Jehová tu Dios para que le sirvan, y para bendecir en nombre de Jehová; y por el dicho de ellos se determinará todo pleito y toda llaga.

6 Y todos los ancianos de aquella ciudad más cercana al muerto lavarán sus manos sobre la becerra degollada en el valle.

7 Y protestarán, y dirán: Nuestras manos no han derramado esta sangre, ni nuestros ojos lo vieron.

8 Expía á tu pueblo Israel, al cual redimiste, oh Jehová; y no imputes la sangre inocente [derramada] en medio de tu pueblo Israel. Y la sangre les será perdonada.

9 Y tú quitarás la [culpa] de sangre inocente de en medio de ti, cuando hicieres lo que es recto en los ojos de Jehová.
