If one be foundH4672 slainH2491 in the landH127 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee to possessH3423 it, lyingH5307 in the fieldH7704, and it be not knownH3045 who hath slainH5221 him:
Then thy eldersH2205 and thy judgesH8199 shall come forthH3318, and they shall measureH4058 unto the citiesH5892 which are round aboutH5439 him that is slainH2491:
And it shall be, that the cityH5892 which is nextH7138 unto the slain manH2491, even the eldersH2205 of that cityH5892 shall takeH3947 an heiferH1241+H5697, which hath not been wrought withH5647, and which hath not drawnH4900 in the yokeH5923;
And the eldersH2205 of that cityH5892 shall bring downH3381 the heiferH5697 unto a roughH386 valleyH5158, which is neither earedH5647 nor sownH2232, and shall strike offH6202 the heifer'sH5697 neckH6202 there in the valleyH5158:
And the priestsH3548 the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878 shall come nearH5066; for them the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath chosenH977 to ministerH8334 unto him, and to blessH1288 in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068; and by their wordH6310 shall every controversyH7379 and every strokeH5061 be tried: {word: Heb. mouth}
And all the eldersH2205 of that cityH5892, that are nextH7138 unto the slainH2491 man, shall washH7364 their handsH3027 over the heiferH5697 that is beheadedH6202 in the valleyH5158:
And they shall answerH6030 and sayH559, Our handsH3027 have not shedH8210 this bloodH1818, neither have our eyesH5869 seenH7200 it.
Be mercifulH3722, O LORDH3068, unto thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, whom thou hast redeemedH6299, and layH5414 not innocentH5355 bloodH1818 unto thy peopleH5971 of Israel'sH3478 chargeH7130. And the bloodH1818 shall be forgivenH3722 them. {unto thy people of: Heb. in the midst, etc}
So shalt thou put awayH1197 the guilt of innocentH5355 bloodH1818 from amongH7130 you, when thou shalt doH6213 that which is rightH3477 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068.
And CainH7014 talkedH559 withH413 AbelH1893 his brotherH251: and it came to pass, when they were in the fieldH7704, that CainH7014 rose upH6965 againstH413 AbelH1893 his brotherH251, and slew himH2026.
But the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 committedH4603 a trespassH4604 in the accursed thingH2764: for AchanH5912, the sonH1121 of CarmiH3756, the sonH1121 of ZabdiH2067, the sonH1121 of ZerahH2226, of the tribeH4294 of JudahH3063, tookH3947 of the accursed thingH2764: and the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was kindledH2734 against the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And JoshuaH3091 sentH7971 menH582 from JerichoH3405 to AiH5857, which is besideH5973 BethavenH1007, on the east sideH6924 of BethelH1008, and spakeH559 unto them, sayingH559, Go upH5927 and viewH7270 the countryH776. And the menH582 went upH5927 and viewedH7270 AiH5857.
And they returnedH7725 to JoshuaH3091, and saidH559 unto him, Let not all the peopleH5971 go upH5927; but let about two or threeH7969 thousandH505 menH376 go upH5927 and smiteH5221 AiH5857; and make not all the peopleH5971 to labourH3021 thither; for they are but fewH4592. {about…: Heb. about two thousand men, or, about three thousand men}
So there went upH5927 thither of the peopleH5971 about threeH7969 thousandH505 menH376: and they fledH5127 beforeH6440 the menH582 of AiH5857.
And the menH582 of AiH5857 smoteH5221 of them about thirtyH7970 and sixH8337 menH376: for they chasedH7291 them from beforeH6440 the gateH8179 even unto ShebarimH7671, and smoteH5221 them in the going downH4174: wherefore the heartsH3824 of the peopleH5971 meltedH4549, and became as waterH4325. {in…: or, in Morad}
And JoshuaH3091 rentH7167 his clothesH8071, and fellH5307 to the earthH776 upon his faceH6440 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 until the eventideH6153, he and the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, and putH5927 dustH6083 upon their headsH7218.
And JoshuaH3091 saidH559, Alas, OH162 LordH136 GODH3069, wherefore hast thou at allH5674 broughtH5674 this peopleH5971 overH5674 JordanH3383, to deliverH5414 us into the handH3027 of the AmoritesH567, to destroyH6 us? would to GodH3863 we had been contentH2974, and dweltH3427 on the other sideH5676 JordanH3383!
OH994 LordH136, what shall I sayH559, whenH310 IsraelH3478 turnethH2015 their backsH6203 beforeH6440 their enemiesH341! {backs: Heb. necks}
For the CanaanitesH3669 and all the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 shall hearH8085 of it, and shall environ us roundH5437, and cut offH3772 our nameH8034 from the earthH776: and what wilt thou doH6213 unto thy greatH1419 nameH8034?
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto JoshuaH3091, Get thee upH6965; wherefore liestH5307 thou thus upon thy faceH6440? {liest: Heb. fallest}
IsraelH3478 hath sinnedH2398, and they have also transgressedH5674 my covenantH1285 which I commandedH6680 them: for they have even takenH3947 of the accursed thingH2764, and have also stolenH1589, and dissembledH3584 also, and they have putH7760 it even among their own stuffH3627.
Therefore the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 couldH3201 not standH6965 beforeH6440 their enemiesH341, but turnedH6437 their backsH6203 beforeH6440 their enemiesH341, because they were accursedH2764: neither will I be with you any moreH3254, exceptH3808 ye destroyH8045 the accursedH2764 from amongH7130 you.
UpH6965, sanctifyH6942 the peopleH5971, and sayH559, SanctifyH6942 yourselves against to morrowH4279: for thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, There is an accursed thingH2764 in the midstH7130 of thee, O IsraelH3478: thou canstH3201 not standH6965 beforeH6440 thine enemiesH341, until ye take awayH5493 the accursed thingH2764 from amongH7130 you.
In the morningH1242 therefore ye shall be broughtH7126 according to your tribesH7626: and it shall be, that the tribeH7626 which the LORDH3068 takethH3920 shall comeH7126 according to the familiesH4940 thereof; and the familyH4940 which the LORDH3068 shall takeH3920 shall comeH7126 by householdsH1004; and the householdH1004 which the LORDH3068 shall takeH3920 shall comeH7126 manH1397 by manH1397.
And it shall be, that he that is takenH3920 with the accursed thingH2764 shall be burntH8313 with fireH784, he and all that he hath: because he hath transgressedH5674 the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068, and because he hath wroughtH6213 follyH5039 in IsraelH3478. {folly: or, wickedness}
So JoshuaH3091 rose up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and broughtH7126 IsraelH3478 by their tribesH7626; and the tribeH7626 of JudahH3063 was takenH3920:
And he broughtH7126 the familyH4940 of JudahH3063; and he tookH3920 the familyH4940 of the ZarhitesH2227: and he broughtH7126 the familyH4940 of the ZarhitesH2227 manH1397 by manH1397; and ZabdiH2067 was takenH3920:
And he broughtH7126 his householdH1004 manH1397 by manH1397; and AchanH5912, the sonH1121 of CarmiH3756, the sonH1121 of ZabdiH2067, the sonH1121 of ZerahH2226, of the tribeH4294 of JudahH3063, was takenH3920.
And JoshuaH3091 saidH559 unto AchanH5912, My sonH1121, giveH7760, I pray thee, gloryH3519 to the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and makeH5414 confessionH8426 unto him; and tellH5046 me now what thou hast doneH6213; hideH3582 it not from me.
And AchanH5912 answeredH6030 JoshuaH3091, and saidH559, IndeedH546 I have sinnedH2398 against the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and thus and thus have I doneH6213:
When I sawH7200 among the spoilsH7998 aH259 goodlyH2896 BabylonishH8152 garmentH155, and two hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701, and aH259 wedgeH3956 of goldH2091 of fiftyH2572 shekelsH8255 weightH4948, then I covetedH2530 them, and tookH3947 them; and, behold, they are hidH2934 in the earthH776 in the midstH8432 of my tentH168, and the silverH3701 under it. {wedge: Heb. tongue}
So JoshuaH3091 sentH7971 messengersH4397, and they ranH7323 unto the tentH168; and, behold, it was hidH2934 in his tentH168, and the silverH3701 under it.
And they tookH3947 them out of the midstH8432 of the tentH168, and broughtH935 them unto JoshuaH3091, and unto all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and laid them outH3332 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068. {laid: Heb. poured}
And JoshuaH3091, and all IsraelH3478 with him, tookH3947 AchanH5912 the sonH1121 of ZerahH2226, and the silverH3701, and the garmentH155, and the wedgeH3956 of goldH2091, and his sonsH1121, and his daughtersH1323, and his oxenH7794, and his assesH2543, and his sheepH6629, and his tentH168, and all that he had: and they broughtH5927 them unto the valleyH6010 of AchorH5911.
And JoshuaH3091 saidH559, WhyH4100 hast thou troubledH5916 us? the LORDH3068 shall troubleH5916 thee this dayH3117. And all IsraelH3478 stonedH7275 him with stonesH68, and burnedH8313 them with fireH784, after they had stonedH5619 them with stonesH68.
And they raisedH6965 over him a greatH1419 heapH1530 of stonesH68 unto this dayH3117. So the LORDH3068 turnedH7725 from the fiercenessH2740 of his angerH639. Wherefore the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 was calledH7121, The valleyH6010 of AchorH5911, unto this dayH3117. {Achor: that is, Trouble}
But the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 committedH4603 a trespassH4604 in the accursed thingH2764: for AchanH5912, the sonH1121 of CarmiH3756, the sonH1121 of ZabdiH2067, the sonH1121 of ZerahH2226, of the tribeH4294 of JudahH3063, tookH3947 of the accursed thingH2764: and the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 was kindledH2734 against the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
Then there was a famineH7458 in the daysH3117 of DavidH1732 threeH7969 yearsH8141, yearH8141 afterH310 yearH8141; and DavidH1732 enquiredH1245 ofH6440 the LORDH3068. And the LORDH3068 answeredH559, It is for SaulH7586, and for his bloodyH1818 houseH1004, because he slewH4191 the GibeonitesH1393. {enquired…: Heb. sought the face, etc}
And the kingH4428 calledH7121 the GibeonitesH1393, and saidH559 unto them; (now the GibeonitesH1393 were not of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, but of the remnantH3499 of the AmoritesH567; and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 had swornH7650 unto them: and SaulH7586 soughtH1245 to slayH5221 them in his zealH7065 to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063.)
When the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath cut offH3772 the nationsH1471, whose landH776 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee, and thou succeedestH3423 them, and dwellestH3427 in their citiesH5892, and in their housesH1004; {succeedest: Heb. inheritest, or, possessest}
Thou shalt separateH914 threeH7969 citiesH5892 for thee in the midstH8432 of thy landH776, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee to possessH3423 it.
Thou shalt prepareH3559 thee a wayH1870, and divide the coastsH1366 of thy landH776, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 giveth thee to inheritH5157, into three partsH8027, that every slayerH7523 may fleeH5127 thither.
And this is the caseH1697 of the slayerH7523, which shall fleeH5127 thither, that he may liveH2425: Whoso killethH5221 his neighbourH7453 ignorantlyH1097+H1847, whom he hatedH8130 not in timeH8543 pastH8032; {in…: Heb. from yesterday the third day}
As when a man goethH935 into the woodH3293 with his neighbourH7453 to hewH2404 woodH6086, and his handH3027 fetcheth a strokeH5080 with the axeH1631 to cut downH3772 the treeH6086, and the headH1270 slippethH5394 from the helveH6086, and lightethH4672 upon his neighbourH7453, that he dieH4191; he shall fleeH5127 unto oneH259 of those citiesH5892, and liveH2425: {head: Heb. iron} {helve: Heb. wood} {lighteth…: Heb. findeth}
Lest the avengerH1350 of the bloodH1818 pursueH7291 the slayerH310+H7523, whileH3588 his heartH3824 is hotH3179, and overtakeH5381 him, because the wayH1870 is longH7235, and slayH5221 himH5315; whereas he was not worthyH4941 of deathH4194, inasmuch asH3588 he hatedH8130 him not in timeH8543 pastH8032. {slay…: Heb. smite him in life} {in…: Heb. from yesterday the third day}
Wherefore I commandH6680 thee, sayingH559, Thou shalt separateH914 threeH7969 citiesH5892 for thee.
And if the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 enlargeH7337 thy coastH1366, as he hath swornH7650 unto thy fathersH1, and giveH5414 thee all the landH776 which he promisedH1696 to giveH5414 unto thy fathersH1;
If thou shalt keepH8104 all these commandmentsH4687 to doH6213 them, which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117, to loveH157 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and to walkH3212 everH3117 in his waysH1870; then shalt thou addH3254 threeH7969 citiesH5892 more for thee, beside these threeH7969:
That innocentH5355 bloodH1818 be not shedH8210 inH7130 thy landH776, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee for an inheritanceH5159, and so bloodH1818 be upon thee.
But if any manH376 hateH8130 his neighbourH7453, and lie in waitH693 for him, and rise upH6965 against him, and smiteH5221 him mortallyH5315 that he dieH4191, and fleethH5127 into oneH259 of theseH411 citiesH5892: {mortally: Heb. in life}
Then the eldersH2205 of his cityH5892 shall sendH7971 and fetchH3947 him thence, and deliverH5414 him into the handH3027 of the avengerH1350 of bloodH1818, that he may dieH4191.
Thine eyeH5869 shall not pityH2347 him, but thou shalt put awayH1197 the guilt of innocentH5355 bloodH1818 from IsraelH3478, that it may go wellH2895 with thee.
So ye shall not polluteH2610 the landH776 wherein ye are: for bloodH1818 it defilethH2610 the landH776: and the landH776 cannot be cleansedH3722 of the bloodH1818 that is shedH8210 therein, but by the bloodH1818 of him that shedH8210 it. {the land cannot…: Heb. there can be no expiation for the land}
And I will pourH8210 upon the houseH1004 of DavidH1732, and upon the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, the spiritH7307 of graceH2580 and of supplicationsH8469: and they shall lookH5027 upon me whom they have piercedH1856, and they shall mournH4553 for him, as one mournethH5594 for his onlyH3173 son, and shall be in bitternessH4843 for him, as one that is in bitternessH4843 for his firstbornH1060.
WhenG1161 PilateG4091 sawG1492 thatG3754 he could prevailG5623 nothingG3762, butG235 that ratherG3123 a tumultG2351 was madeG1096, he tookG2983 waterG5204, and washedG633 his handsG5495 beforeG561 the multitudeG3793, sayingG3004, I amG1510 innocentG121 ofG575 the bloodG129 of thisG5127 just personG1342: seeG3700 yeG5210 to it.
WhichG5101 of the prophetsG4396 haveG1377 notG3756 yourG5216 fathersG3962 persecutedG1377? andG2532 they have slainG615 them whichG3588 shewed beforeG4293 ofG4012 the comingG1660 of the Just OneG1342; of whomG3739 yeG5210 have beenG1096 nowG3568 the betrayersG4273 andG2532 murderersG5406:
