7 So all the cities you will give to the Levites shall be aforty-eight; these you shall give with their common-land.
8 And the cities which you will give shall be afrom the possession of the children of Israel; bfrom the larger tribe you shall give many, from the smaller you shall give few. Each shall give some of its cities to the Levites, in proportion to the inheritance that each receives.”
Cities of Refuge

10 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: a‘When you cross the Jordan into the land of Canaan,
11 then ayou shall appoint cities to be cities of refuge for you, that the manslayer who kills any person accidentally may flee there.
