Read in context

Numbers 35:8–12 · Berean Standard Bible

8 The cities that you apportion from the territory of the Israelites should be given to the Levites in proportion to the inheritance of each tribe: more from a larger tribe and less from a smaller one.”

9 Then the LORD said to Moses,

10 “Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When you cross the Jordan into the land of Canaan,

11 designate cities to serve as your cities of refuge, so that a person who kills someone unintentionally may flee there.

12 You are to have these cities as a refuge from the avenger, so that the manslayer will not die until he stands trial before the assembly.
