And of these six free cities which ye shall give,

And these six free cities shall be for the children of Israel and for the stranger and for him that dwelleth among you, that all they which kill any person unawares, may flee thither.

if the blood avenger find him without the borders of his free town, he shall slay the murderer and be guiltless,

because he should have bidden in his free town until the death of the high priest, and after the death of the high priest, he shall return again unto the land of his possession.

Also ye shall take none atonement for him that is fled to a free city, that he should come again and dwell in the land before the death of the high priest.

And when the free year cometh unto the children of Israel, then shall their inheritance be put unto the inheritance of the tribe where they are in, and so shall their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers."
