Deuteronomy 21:5-7

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁵ And the priests the sons of Levi shall come near; for the LORD thy God has chosen them to minister unto him and to bless in the name of the LORD; and by their word shall every controversy and every stroke be determined.

⁶ And all the elders of that closest city next to the dead man shall wash their hands over the heifer that is beheaded in the valley.

⁷ And they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it.
