Deuteronomy 19:6

19:6 Otherwise the blood avenger will chase after the killer in the heat of his anger, eventually overtake him, ¹  and kill him, ²  though this is not a capital case ³  since he did not hate him at the time of the accident.

Deuteronomy 32:39

The Vindication of the Lord

32:39 “See now that I, indeed I, am he!” says the Lord, ⁴ 

“and there is no other god besides me.

I kill and give life,

I smash and I heal,

and none can resist ⁵  my power.

¹ tn Heb “and overtake him, for the road is long.”

² tn Heb “smite with respect to life,” that is, fatally.

³ tn Heb “no judgment of death.”

⁴ tn Verses 39-42 appear to be a quotation of the Lord and so the introductory phrase “says the Lord” is supplied in the translation for clarity.

⁵ tn Heb “deliver from” (so NRSV, NLT).
