15 Estas seis cidades serão para refúgio aos filhos de Israel, e ao peregrino, e ao que morar entre eles, para que fuja ali qualquer um que ferir de morte a outro por acidente.

16 E se com instrumento de ferro o ferir e morrer, homicida é; o homicida morrerá:

17 E se com pedra da mão, de que podia morrer, o ferir, e morrer, homicida é; o homicida morrerá.

18 E se com instrumento de madeira da mão, de que podia morrer, o ferir, e morrer, homicida é; o homicida morrerá.

19 O parente do morto, ele matará ao homicida: quando o encontrar, ele lhe matará.
