Deuteronomy 21:4-6

English Standard Version

⁴ And the elders of that city shall bring the heifer down to a valley with running water, which is neither plowed nor sown, and shall break the heifer's neck there in the valley. ⁵ Then the priests, the sons of Levi, shall come forward, for the Lord your God has chosen ^(A)them to minister to him and to bless in the name of the Lord, and ^(B)by their word every dispute and every assault shall be settled. ⁶ And all the elders of that city nearest to the slain man ^(C)shall wash their hands over the heifer whose neck was broken in the valley,
