Numbers 35:25-27

Common English Bible

²⁵ The community will protect the killer from the hand of the close relative and return him to the refuge city where he fled. He will live there until the death of the high priest who was anointed with holy oil. ²⁶ But if the killer ever goes outside the boundaries of the refuge city where he fled ²⁷ and the close relative finds him outside the boundary of his refuge city and kills him, he will not be responsible for his blood.
