Then it shall extend to Hazar addar and continue toward Azmon. 5The border then turns from Azmon to the stream of Egypt, and its ends shall be to the sea. 6The western border: it shall be for you the Great [Mediterranean] Sea and the border this shall be your western border. 7This shall be your northern border: From the Great [Mediterranean] Sea turn yourselves toward Mount Hor. 8From Mount Hor turn to the entrance of Hamath, and the ends of the border shall be toward Zedad. 9The border shall then extend to Ziphron, and its ends shall be Hazar enan; this shall be your northern border. 10You shall then turn yourselves toward the eastern border, from Hazar enan to Shepham. 11The border descends from Shepham toward Riblah, to the east of Ain.

In addition to them, you shall provide forty two cities. 7All the cities you shall give to the Levites shall number forty eight cities, them with their open spaces. 8And as for the cities that you shall give from the possession of the children of Israel, you shall take more from a larger [holding] and you shall take less from a smaller one. Each one, according to the inheritance allotted to him, shall give of his cities to the Levites. 9The Lord spoke to Moses saying: 10Speak to the children of Israel and say to them, When you cross the Jordan to the land of Canaan, 11you shall designate cities for yourselves; they shall be cities of refuge for you, and a murderer who killed a person unintentionally shall flee there. 12These cities shall serve you as a refuge from an avenger, so that the murderer shall not die until he stands in judgment before the congregation. 13The cities that you provide shall serve as six cities of refuge for you. 14You shall provide the three cities in trans Jordan and the three cities in the land of Canaan; they shall be cities of refuge. 15These six cities shall be a refuge for the children of Israel and for the proselyte and resident among them, so that anyone who unintentionally kills a person can flee there. 16If he struck him with an iron instrument and he dies, he is a murderer, and the murderer shall be put to death. 17If he struck him with a fist sized stone which is deadly, and he dies, he is a murderer, and the murderer shall be put to death. 18Or with a fist sized wooden instrument which is deadly, and he dies, he is a murderer, and the murderer shall be put to death. 19The blood avenger shall kill the murderer; he may kill him when he meets him. 20If, out of hatred, he pushed him, or threw something at him with premeditation, and he died, 21or if he maliciously struck him with his hand and he died, the assailant shall be put to death; he is a murderer; the blood avenger may kill the murderer when he meets him. 22But if he pushed him accidentally, without malice, or threw an object at him without premeditation, 23or, with any stone which is deadly, and without seeing [his victim] he threw it down at him and it killed him, but he was not his enemy and bore him no malice 24Then the congregation shall judge between the assailant and the blood avenger, on the basis of these judgments. 25The congregation shall protect the murderer from the hand of the blood avenger, and the congregation shall return him to the city of refuge to which he had fled, and he shall remain there until the Kohen Gadol, who anointed him with the sacred oil, dies. 26But if the murderer goes beyond the border of the city of refuge to which he had fled, 27and the blood avenger finds him outside the limits of his city of refuge, and the blood avenger slays the murderer, he has no blood. 28For he shall remain in his city of refuge until the Kohen Gadol dies, and only after the Kohen Gadol has died, may the murderer return to the land which is his possession. 29These shall be for you a statute of justice for all your generations, in all your dwelling places. 30Whoever [namely the blood avenger] kills a person, based on the testimony of witnesses, he shall slay the murderer. A single witness may not testify against a person so that he should die. 31You shall not accept ransom for the life of a murderer, who is guilty of death, for he shall be put to death. 32You shall not accept ransom for one who has fled to his city of refuge, to allow him to return to live in the Land, before the kohen has died. 33And you shall not corrupt the land in which you live, for the blood corrupts the land, and the blood which is shed in the land cannot be atoned for except through the blood of the one who shed it. 34And you shall not defile the land where you reside, in which I dwell, for I am the Lord Who dwells among the children of Israel. — NUMBERS 36:10 1The paternal heads of the family of the sons of Gilead the son of Machir the son of Manasseh of the families of the sons of Joseph approached and spoke before Moses and before the chieftains, the paternal heads of the children of Israel. 2They said, “The Lord commanded my master to give the Land as an inheritance through lot to the children of Israel, and our master was commanded by the Lord to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother to his daughters. 3Now, if they marry a member of another tribe of the children of Israel, their inheritance will be diminished from the inheritance of our father, and it will be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry, and thus, it will be diminished from the lot of our inheritance. 4Even if the children of Israel will have a Jubilee, their inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry, and their inheritance will be diminished from the inheritance of our father’s tribe.” 5Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of the Lord, saying, “The tribe of Joseph’s descendants speak justly. 6This is the word that the Lord has commanded regarding Zelophehad’s daughters. Let them marry whomever they please, but they shall marry only to the family of their father’s tribe. 7Thus, the inheritance of the children of Israel will not be transferred from tribe to tribe, for each person from the children of Israel will remain attached to the inheritance of his father’s tribe. 8Every daughter from the tribes of the children of Israel who inherits property, shall marry a member of her father’s tribe, so each one of the children of Israel shall inherit the property of his forefathers. 9And no inheritance will be transferred from one tribe to another tribe, for each person of the tribes of the children of Israel shall remain attached to his own inheritance.” 10As the Lord had commanded….
