In context

20And if he should thrust him through enmity, or cast anything upon him from an ambuscade, and the man should die,

21or if he have smitten him with his hand through anger, and the man should die, let the man that smote him be put to death by all means, he is a murderer: let the murderer by all means be put to death: the avenger of blood shall slay the murderer when he meets him.

— Numbers 35:22 —

23or smite him with any stone, whereby a man may die, unawares, and it should fall upon him, and he should die, but he was not his enemy, nor sought to hurt him;

24then the assembly shall judge between the smiter and the avenger of blood, according to these judgments.
