Numbers 35:13-15

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹³ The cities which you will set aside will serve as the six cities of refuge for you. ¹⁴ You are to set aside three cities east of the Jordan and three cities in the land of Canaan. They will serve as cities of refuge. ¹⁵ These six cities will serve as a refuge for Israelites, for resident aliens, and for temporary residents living among them so that everyone who has taken someone’s life unintentionally may flee there.
