Numbers 35:6-8

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁶ And among the cities which ye shall give unto the Levites, there shall be six cities for refuge, which ye shall appoint so that the manslayer may flee there; and in addition to them ye shall give them forty-two cities.

⁷ So all the cities which ye shall give to the Levites shall be forty-eight cities, the cities with their suburbs.

⁸ And the cities which ye shall give shall be of the possession of the sons of Israel; from those that have much ye shall give many; but from those that have few ye shall give few, each one shall give of his cities unto the Levites according to his possession which he inherited.
