10That innocent blood be not shed in thy land which the Lord thy God giueth thee for an inheritance, and so blood be vpon thee. 11¶ But if any man hate his neighbour and lie in wait for him, and rise vp against him, and smite him mortally that hee die, and fleeth into one of these Cities: 12Then the Elders of his citie shall send and fetch him thence, and deliuer him into the hand of the auenger of blood, that he may die. 13Thine eye shall not pittie him, but thou shalt put away the guilt of innocent blood from Israel, that it may goe wel with thee. 14¶ Thou shalt not remooue thy neighbours land-marke, which they of old time haue set in thine inheritance, which thou shalt inherite, in the land that the Lord thy God giueth thee to possesse it.
