Joshua 20:1-3

Revised Geneva Translation

20 The LORD also spoke to Joshua, saying:

² “Speak to the children of Israel, and say, ‘Appoint cities of refuge for yourself, of which I spoke to you by the hand of Moses,

³ “so that the killer who kills any person by ignorance, unwittingly, may flee from there. And they shall be your refuge from the avenger of blood.
