Behold, You have driven me out this day from the face of the ground; I shall be hidden from Your face; I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond on the earth, and it will happen that anyone who finds me will kill me.

The kinsman avenger of blood himself shall put the murderer to death; when he meets him, he shall put him to death.

then the elders of his city shall send and bring him from there, and deliver him over to the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die.

until your brother's anger turns away from you, and he forgets what you have done to him; then I will send and bring you from there. Why should I be bereaved also of you both in one day?

And it shall be that the firstborn son which she bears shall succeed to the name of his dead brother, that his name not be blotted out of Israel.

And the elders of his house arose and went to him, to raise him up from the ground. But he would not, nor did he eat food with them.
