15 Ces six villes serviront de refuge aux enfants d’Israël, à l’étranger et à celui qui demeure au milieu de vous: là pourra s’enfuir tout homme qui aura tué quelqu’un involontairement.
16 Si un homme frappe son prochain avec un instrument de fer, et que la mort en soit la suite, c’est un meurtrier: le meurtrier sera puni de mort.
17 S’il le frappe, tenant à la main une pierre qui puisse causer la mort, et que la mort en soit la suite, c’est un meurtrier: le meurtrier sera puni de mort.
18 S’il le frappe, tenant à la main un instrument de bois qui puisse causer la mort, et que la mort en soit la suite, c’est un meurtrier: le meurtrier sera puni de mort.
