Joshua 20:3-5
Christian Standard Bible
3 so that a person who kills someone unintentionally or accidentally may flee there. These will be your refuge from the avenger of blood.(A) 4 When someone flees to one of these cities, stands at the entrance of the city gate, and states his case before the elders of that city, they are to bring him into the city and give him a place to live among them.(B) 5 And if the avenger of blood pursues him, they must not hand the one who committed manslaughter over to him, for he killed his neighbor accidentally and did not hate him beforehand.
