9. And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying,
10. “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘When you pass over the Yardĕn into the land of Kena‛an,
11. then you shall choose cities to be cities of refuge for you, that the one who accidentally killed someone shall flee there.
12. ‘And they shall be cities of refuge for you from the revenger, and the one who killed someone is not to die until he stands before the congregation in right-ruling.
13. ‘And of the cities which you give, six are to be cities of refuge.
14. ‘Give three cities beyond the Yardĕn, and give three cities in the land of Kena‛an, as cities of refuge.
