Joshua 20:6-8

Common English Bible

⁶ The killer will live in that city until there can be a trial before the community or^[a] until the death of the one who is high priest at that time. Then the killer may return home, back to the city from which the flight began.’”

⁷ So they set apart Kedesh in Galilee in the highlands of Naphtali, Shechem in the highlands of Ephraim, and Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron) in the highlands of Judah. ⁸ On the other side of the Jordan east of Jericho, they set up Bezer in the wasteland on the plateau from the tribe of Reuben, Ramoth in Gilead from the tribe of Gad, and Golan in Bashan from the tribe of Manasseh.
