14 And in case a man becomes heated against his fellow to the point of killing him with craftiness,+ you are to take him even from being at my altar to die.+

11 “But in case there should happen to be a man hating+ his fellowman, and he has lain in wait for him and has risen up against him and struck his soul fatally and he has died,+ and the man has fled to one of these cities,

18 Consequently they themselves lie in ambush for the very blood of these;+ they lie in concealment for their souls.*+

19 But He·roʹdi·as was nursing a grudge+ against him and was wanting to kill him, but could not.+

21 Above all things, do not let them persuade you, for more than forty men of theirs are lying in wait+ for him, and they have bound themselves with a curse neither to eat nor to drink until they have done away with him;+ and they are now ready, waiting for the promise from you.”
