দ্বিতীয় বিবরণ 19:5

একটি উদাহরণ দেওয়া হল: একজন ব্যক্তি কাঠ কাটার জন্য আরেকজন ব্যক্তির সঙ্গে জঙ্গলে যায়| লোকটি একটি গাছ কাটার জন্য তার কুঠারটিকে দোলায, কিন্তু কুঠারের মাথাটি হাতলের থেকে আলাদা হয়ে অপর ব্যক্তিকে আঘাত করে এবং তাকে হত্যা করে| য়ে ব্যক্তি কুঠারটিকে দুলিযেছিল সে তখন ঐ তিনটি শহরের য়ে কোন একটিতে ছুটে য়েতে পারে এবং নিজেকে নিরাপদ করতে পারে|

KJV

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:

For example, suppose someone goes into the forest with a neighbor to cut wood. And suppose one of them swings an ax to chop down a tree, and the ax head flies off the handle, killing the other person. In such cases, the slayer may flee to one of the cities of refuge to live in safety.

Suppose he goes with someone else to the forest to cut wood and when he raises the ax to cut the tree, the ax head flies loose from the handle and strikes his fellow worker so hard that he dies. The person responsible may then flee to one of these cities to save himself.

Here is an example: A man goes into the forest with another person to cut wood. The man swings his ax to cut down a tree, but the head of the ax separates from the handle. The ax head hits the other person and kills him. The man who swung the ax may then run to one of these three cities and be safe.
