[53] 10 Λελάληκε δ’ ἀκριβέστερον περὶ φυγῆς, ἡνίκα τὸν ἐπὶ τοῖς ἀνδροφόνοις ἐτίθει νόμον, ἐν ᾧ πάντ’ ἐπεξῆλθε τὰ εἴδη, τὸ ἑκουσίου φόνου, τὸ ἀκουσίου, τὸ ἐπιθέσεως, τὸ βουλεύσεως. λέγε τὸν νόμον· „ἐὰν πατάξῃ τίς τινα καὶ ἀποθάνῃ, θανάτῳ θανατούσθω· ὁ δὲ οὐχ ἑκών, ἀλλ’
ὁ θεὸς παρέδωκεν αὐτὸν εἰς τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ, δώσω σοι τόπον, οὗ ¹² φεύξεται ὁ φονεύσας. ἐὰν δέ τις ἐπιθῆται τῷ πλησίον ἀποκτεῖναι αὐτὸν δόλῳ καὶ καταφύγῃ, ἀπὸ τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου λήψῃ αὐτὸν θανατῶσαι“ (Exod. 21,12—14).

But Moses has spoken more accurately about flights when he was establishing the law with respect to homicides, in which he goes through every species of homicide, that of intentional murder, that of unintentional slaying, that of murder by deliberate attack, or by crafty treachery. Repeat the law: "If any man strike another and he die, the striker shall die the death." And if a man do it not intentionally, but if God delivers him into his hand, then I will give thee a place to which he who has slain another shall flee. And if any one set upon his neighbour to slay him by treachery, and flee away, thou shalt drag him even from the altar to put him to death." ¹
