'Save His Life' in the Bible

“Here is the law concerning a case of someone who kills a person and flees there to save his life, having killed his neighbor accidentally without previously hating him:

If I say to the wicked person, ‘You will surely die,’ but you do not warn him—you don’t speak out to warn him about his wicked way in order to save his life—that wicked person will die for his iniquity. Yet I will hold you responsible for his blood.

Because you have disheartened the righteous person with lies, even though I have not caused him grief, and because you have encouraged the wicked person not to turn from his evil way to save his life,

Escape will fail the swift,the strong one will not prevail by his strength,and the brave will not save his life.

The archer will not stand his ground,the one who is swift of footwill not save himself,and the one riding a horse will not save his life.

For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life because of Me will find it.
