Deuteronomy 19:13 in context

  1. 11But if any man hates his neighbor, lies in wait for him, rises up against him, strikes him mortally so that he dies, and he flees into one of these cities;
  2. 12then the elders of his city shall send and bring him there, and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die.
  3. 13Your eye shall not pity him, but you shall purge the innocent blood from Israel that it may go well with you.
  4. 14You shall not remove your neighbor’s landmark, which they of old time have set, in your inheritance which you shall inherit, in the land that Yahweh your God gives you to possess.
  5. 15One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin that he sins. At the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall a matter be established.
