Deuteronomy 21:6-8
Lexham English Bible
6 And all of the elders of that city nearest to the slain person shall wash their hands over the heifer with the broken neck in the wadi.[a] 7 And they shall declare, and they shall say, ‘Our hands did not shed this blood, and our eyes did not see what was done. 8 Forgive your people, Israel, whom you redeemed, Yahweh, and do not allow[b] the guilt of innocent blood in the midst of your people Israel, and let them be forgiven with regard to blood.’
