'Victim' in the Bible
“If a murder victim is found lying in a field in the land the Lord your God is giving you to possess, and it is not known who killed him,
your elders and judges must come out and measure the distance from the victim to the nearby cities.
The elders of the city nearest to the victim are to get a young cow that has not been yoked or used for work.
All the elders of the city nearest to the victim will wash their hands by the stream over the young cow whose neck has been broken.
Your hands were not bound,your feet not placed in bronze shackles.You fell like one who falls victim to criminals.And all the people wept over him even more.
House of David, this is what the Lord says:Administer justice every morning,and rescue the victim of robberyfrom the hand of his oppressor,or My anger will flare up like fireand burn unquenchablybecause of their evil deeds.
This is what the Lord says: Administer justice and righteousness. Rescue the victim of robbery from the hand of his oppressor. Don’t exploit or brutalize the foreigner, the fatherless, or the widow. Don’t shed innocent blood in this place.
