Deuteronomy 21:7-9

New King James Version

⁷ Then they shall answer and say, ‘Our hands have not shed this blood, nor have our eyes seen it. ⁸ Provide atonement, O Lord, for Your people Israel, whom You have redeemed, ^(A)and do not lay innocent blood to the charge of Your people Israel.’ And atonement shall be provided on their behalf for the blood. ⁹ So ^(B)you shall put away the guilt of innocent blood from among you when you do what is right in the sight of the Lord.
