But if the manslayer shall at any time go beyond the border of his city of refuge, whither he fleeth;
But if the manslayer shall at any time go beyond the boundaries of his city of refuge to which he fled,
"But don't go outside the city of refuge you fled to.
If the one who kills someone ever goes outside the border of the city of refuge he fled to,
But if the inadvertent killer leaves the town of refuge where he had fled
But if the slayer at any time goes outside the boundary of the town to which he had fled,
'But if the manslayer at any time goes beyond the border of his city of refuge to which he may flee,

Sometimes it happens, though, that a person pushes his friend or acquaintance, throws an object, or happens to drop a heavy stone on someone else without any intention of hurting (much less killing) the person, but the other person happens to die from it. The guilty person should be able to take refuge in one of the six designated cities, safe from the one who would avenge the death he caused. Then people from among the greater community shall judge whether it was indeed an accident or not. When the congregation determines it was an accident, the person who accidentally killed shall be saved from the blood avenger. He must live within the city of refuge, though. If he leaves it, the blood avenger is allowed to kill him with impunity because the man knew not to leave his sanctuary city. However, once the anointed high priest of Israel dies, that restriction shall be lifted, and the person who unintentionally killed another may return home, free and clear.
“If the slayer leaves the city,
“ ‘But if the killer at any time crosses over the boundary of the city of refuge to which he has fled,
But if the manslayer at any time goes beyond the border of his city of refuge to which he may flee,
But if the manslayer shall at any time come outside the border of the city of his refuge where he has fled,
“If the one who kills someone ever goes outside the border of the city of refuge he fled to,
But if the slayer shall at any time come outside the limits of his city of refuge to which he had fled

“If, however, he impulsively pushes someone and there is no history of hard feelings, or he impetuously picks up something and throws it, or he accidentally drops a stone tool—a maul or hammer, say—and it hits and kills someone he didn’t even know was there, and there’s no suspicion that there was bad blood between them, the community is to judge between the killer and the avenger following these guidelines. It’s the task of the community to save the killer from the hand of the avenger—the community is to return him to his asylum-city to which he fled. He must stay there until the death of the High Priest who was anointed with the holy oil. But if the murderer leaves the asylum-city to which he has fled, and the avenger finds him outside the borders of his asylum-city, the avenger has a right to kill the murderer. And he’s not considered guilty of murder.
