Numbers 35:32–34 · Berean Standard Bible

32 Nor should you accept a ransom for the person who flees to a city of refuge and allow him to return and live on his own land before the death of the high priest.

33 Do not pollute the land where you live, for bloodshed pollutes the land, and no atonement can be made for the land on which the blood is shed, except by the blood of the one who shed it.

34 Do not defile the land where you live and where I dwell. For I, the LORD, dwell among the Israelites.”
