Deuteronomy 19:12 in Context — Deuteronomy 19
10 afin que le sang innocent ne soit pas répandu au milieu du pays que l’Éternel, ton Dieu, te donne pour héritage, et que tu ne sois pas coupable de meurtre.
11 Mais si un homme s’enfuit dans une de ces villes, après avoir dressé des embûches à son prochain par inimitié contre lui, après l’avoir attaqué et frappé de manière à causer sa mort,
12 les anciens de sa ville l’enverront saisir et le livreront entre les mains du vengeur du sang, afin qu’il meure.
13 Tu ne jetteras pas sur lui un regard de pitié, tu feras disparaître d’Israël le sang innocent, et tu seras heureux.
14 Tu ne reculeras point les bornes de ton prochain, posées par tes ancêtres, dans l’héritage que tu auras au pays dont l’Éternel, ton Dieu, te donne la possession.
