Bible. Deuteronomy
05:018:016 According to all that thou desiredst of the LORD thy God in
Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear
again the voice of the LORD my God, neither let me see this
great fire any more, that I die not.
05:018:017 And the LORD said unto me, They have well spoken that which
they have spoken.
05:018:018 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like
unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall
speak unto them all that I shall command him.
05:018:019 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken
unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require
it of him.
05:018:020 But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my
name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall
speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.
05:018:021 And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word
which the LORD hath not spoken?
05:018:022 When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing
follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD
hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it
presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.
05:019:001 When the LORD thy God hath cut off the nations, whose land the
LORD thy God giveth thee, and thou succeedest them, and
dwellest in their cities, and in their houses;
05:019:002 Thou shalt separate three cities for thee in the midst of thy
land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee to possess it.
05:019:003 Thou shalt prepare thee a way, and divide the coasts of thy
land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee to inherit, into
three parts, that every slayer may flee thither.
05:019:004 And this is the case of the slayer, which shall flee thither,
that he may live: Whoso killeth his neighbour ignorantly, whom
he hated not in time past;
05:019:005 As when a man goeth into the wood with his neighbour to hew
wood, and his hand fetcheth a stroke with the axe to cut down
the tree, and the head slippeth from the helve, and lighteth
upon his neighbour, that he die; he shall flee unto one of
those cities, and live:
05:019:006 Lest the avenger of the blood pursue the slayer, while his
heart is hot, and overtake him, because the way is long, and
slay him; whereas he was not worthy of death, inasmuch as he
hated him not in time past.
05:019:007 Wherefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt separate three
cities for thee.
05:019:008 And if the LORD thy God enlarge thy coast, as he hath sworn
unto thy fathers, and give thee all the land which he promised
to give unto thy fathers;
