6 Anyone shedding man’s blood, by man will his own blood be shed,+ for in God’s image he made man.

33 “‘And YOU must not pollute the land in which YOU are;* because it is blood that pollutes the land,+ and for the land there may be no atonement respecting the blood that has been spilled upon it except by the blood of the one spilling it.+

13 Your eye should not feel sorry for him,+ and you must clear away the guilt of innocent blood out of Israel,+ that you may have good.

9 And you—you will clear away the guilt of innocent blood from your midst,+ because you will do what is right in Jehovah’s eyes.+

26 ‘“Certainly the blood+ of Naʹboth and the blood of his sons+ I saw yesterday,” is the utterance of Jehovah, “and I shall certainly repay+ you in this tract of land,” is the utterance of Jehovah.’ So now, lift him up; throw him into the tract of land according to the word of Jehovah.”+

17 A man burdened with the bloodguilt for a soul will himself flee even to the pit.+ Let them not get hold of him.
