“Say to the people of Israel, ‘Appoint the cities of refuge, of which I spoke to you through Moses,
The cities which you give to the Levites shall be the six cities of refuge, where you shall permit the manslayer to flee, and in addition to them you shall give forty-two cities.
There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
Then the Lord said to Joshua,
that the manslayer who kills any person without intent or unwittingly may flee there; they shall be for you a refuge from the avenger of blood.
