Cities of Refuge

(Num 35:9–28; Jos 20:1–9 )
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:1 - When Jehovah thy God hath cut off the nations whose land Jehovah thy God giveth thee, and thou hast dispossessed them, and dwellest in their cities and in their houses,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:2 - thou shalt separate three cities for thyself in the midst of thy land, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee to possess.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:3 - Thou shalt prepare thee the way, and divide the territory of thy land, which Jehovah thy God giveth thee to inherit, into three parts, so that every slayer may flee thither.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:4 - And this is the case of the slayer who shall flee thither that he may live: he that smiteth his neighbour unwittingly, whom he hated not previously;
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:5 - as when he goeth into the wood with his neighbour to hew wood, and his hand fetcheth a stroke with the axe to cut down the tree, and the iron slippeth from the handle, and lighteth upon his neighbour, that he die; such an one shall flee unto one of these cities, and live;
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:6 - lest the avenger of blood pursue the manslayer, while his heart is hot, and overtake him, because the way is long, and smite him mortally; whereas he was not worthy of death, since he hated him not previously.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:7 - Therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt separate three cities for thyself.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:8 - And if Jehovah thy God enlarge thy border, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers, and give thee all the land which he promised to give unto thy fathers
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:9 - (if thou keep all this commandment to do it, which I command thee this day, to love Jehovah thy God, and to walk in his ways continually), then shalt thou add three cities more for thyself to these three,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:10 - that innocent blood be not shed in the midst of thy land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance, and blood come not upon thee.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:11 - But if a man hate his neighbour, and lie in wait for him, and rise up against him, and smite him mortally that he die, and he flee into one of these cities,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:12 - then the elders of his city shall send and fetch him thence, and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:13 - Thine eye shall not spare him; and thou shalt put away innocent blood from Israel, that it may be well with thee.

Laws of Landmark and Testimony

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:14 - Thou shalt not remove thy neighbour's landmark, which they of old time have fixed in thine inheritance, which thou shalt inherit in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee to possess.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:15 - One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, and for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall a matter be established.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:16 - If an unrighteous witness rise up against any man to testify against him of an offence;
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:17 - then both the men between whom the controversy is shall stand before Jehovah, before the priests and the judges that shall be in those days;
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:18 - and the judges shall make thorough inquiry; and if the witness be a false witness, and he have testified falsely against his brother,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:19 - then shall ye do unto him as he had thought to have done unto his brother; and thou shalt put evil away from thy midst.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:20 - And those that remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth commit no more any such evil in thy midst.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 19:21 - And thine eye shall not spare: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
DBY

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
