GOD’S WORD Translation

Criminal Laws

19 The Lord your God will destroy all the nations that are living in the land that he’s giving you. You will force them out and live in their cities and houses. ² When all this is done, set aside three cities in the land that the Lord your God is giving you. ³ Provide a route to each of these cities and divide the land that the Lord your God is giving you into three regions. Whoever kills someone may run to one of these cities.
