And the children of Israel gave unto the Levites out of their inheritance, at the commandment of the LORD, these cities and their suburbs.

Thus they gave to the children of Aaron the priest Hebron with her suburbs, {to be} a city of refuge for the slayer; and Libnah with her suburbs,

And out of the tribe of Reuben, Bezer with her suburbs, and Jahazah with her suburbs,

And out of the tribe of Gad, Ramoth in Gilead with her suburbs, {to be} a city of refuge for the slayer; and Mahanaim with her suburbs,

The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. {a refuge: Heb. an high place}

And unto the children of Gershon, of the families of the Levites, out of the {other} half tribe of Manasseh {they gave} Golan in Bashan with her suburbs, {to be} a city of refuge for the slayer; and Beeshterah with her suburbs; two cities.

And out of the tribe of Naphtali, Kedesh in Galilee with her suburbs, {to be} a city of refuge for the slayer; and Hammothdor with her suburbs, and Kartan with her suburbs; three cities.

For they gave them Shechem with her suburbs in mount Ephraim, {to be} a city of refuge for the slayer; and Gezer with her suburbs,

And of these cities which ye shall give six cities shall ye have for refuge.

In God {is} my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, {and} my refuge, {is} in God.

Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Appoint out for you cities of refuge, whereof I spake unto you by the hand of Moses:

Then ye shall appoint you cities to be cities of refuge for you; that the slayer may flee thither, which killeth any person at unawares. {at...: Heb. by error}
