And the Lord spoke to Joshua, saying,
Joshua 20 : 2 (LXXEN)
Speak to the children of Israel, saying, *Gr. give Assign the cities Gr. refugees of refuge, of which I spoke to you by Moses.
Joshua 20 : 3 (LXXEN)
Even a refuge to the slayer who has smitten a *Gr. life or soul man unintentionally; and the cities shall be to you a refuge, and the slayer shall not be put to death by the avenger of blood, until he have stood before the congregation for judgement.
Joshua 20 : 4 (LXXEN)
And *Gr. he Joshua separated Cades in Galilee in the mount Or, of Nephthali Nephthali, and Sychem in the mount Ephraim, and the city of Arboc; this is Chebron, in the mountain of Juda.
Joshua 20 : 5 (LXXEN)
And beyond Jordan he *Gr. gave appointed Bosor in the wilderness in the plain out of the tribe of Ruben, and Aremoth in Galaad out of the tribe of Gad, and Gaulon in the country of Basan out of the tribe of Manasse.
Joshua 20 : 6 (LXXEN)
These were the cities selected for the sons of Israel, and for the stranger *Or, attached to them abiding among them, that every one who smites a soul unintentionally should flee thither, that he should not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, until he should stand before the congregation for judgement.
