Deuteronomy 19:10

Context
19:10 You must not shed innocent blood 1  in your land that the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, for that would make you guilty. 2 

1 tn Heb “innocent blood must not be shed.” The Hebrew phrase דָּם נָקִי (dam naqiy) means the blood of a person to whom no culpability or responsibility adheres because what he did was without malice aforethought (HALOT 224 s.v דָּם 4.b).

2 tn Heb “and blood will be upon you” (cf. KJV, ASV); NRSV “thereby bringing bloodguilt upon you.”
