Deuteronomy 21:1-9

¹If someone is found slain in the land which the LORD your God gives you to possess, lying in the field, and it isn’t known who has struck him, ²then your elders and your judges shall come out, and they shall measure to the cities which are around him who is slain. ³It shall be that the elders of the city which is nearest to the slain man shall take a heifer of the herd, which hasn’t been worked with and which has not drawn in the yoke. ⁴The elders of that city shall bring the heifer down to a valley with running water, which is neither plowed nor sown, and shall break the heifer’s neck there in the valley. ⁵The priests the sons of Levi shall come near, for them the LORD your God has chosen to minister to him, and to bless in the LORD’s name; and according to their word shall every controversy and every assault be decided. ⁶All the elders of that city which is nearest to the slain man shall wash their hands over the heifer whose neck was broken in the valley. ⁷They shall answer and say, “Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it. ⁸Forgive, LORD, your people Israel, whom you have redeemed, and don’t allow innocent blood among your people Israel.” The blood shall be forgiven them. ⁹So you shall put away the innocent blood from among you, when you shall do that which is right in the LORD’s eyes.
