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.
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,
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.
13
Thine eye shall not spare him; and thou shalt put away innocent blood from Israel, that it may be well with thee.
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.
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.
16
If an unrighteous witness rise up against any man to testify against him of an offence;
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;
18
and the judges shall make thorough inquiry; and if the witness be a false witness, and he have testified falsely against his brother,
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.
20
And those that remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth commit no more any such evil in thy midst.
