1 tn Heb “and this is the word pertaining to the one who kills who flees there and lives.”
2 tn Heb “who strikes his neighbor without knowledge.”
3 tn Heb “yesterday and a third (day)” (likewise in v. 6). The point is that there was no animosity between the two parties at the time of the accident and therefore no motive for the killing. Cf. NAB “had previously borne no malice”; NRSV “had not been at enmity before.”
4 tn Heb “If you are not careful to do.”
5 tn Heb “set him apart.”
6 tn Heb “for evil”; NAB “for doom”; NASB “for adversity”; NIV “for disaster”; NRSV “for calamity.”
7 tn Heb “sons” (so NASB); KJV, ASV, NIV, NRSV “children.”
8 tn Heb “to the Lord your God.” See note on the second occurrence of the word “he” in v. 3.
9 tn The phrase “this law” is not in the Hebrew text, but English style requires an object for the verb here. Other translations also supply the object which is otherwise implicit (cf. NIV “who do not know this law”; TEV “who have never heard the Law of the Lord your God”).
