And, behold, the whole family is risen against thy handmaid, and they say, Deliver him that smote his brother, that we may kill him for the life of his brother whom he slew, and so destroy the heir also. Thus will they quench my coal which is left, and will leave to my husband neither name nor remainder upon the face of the earth.
The avenger of blood shall himself put the murderer to death: when he meeteth him, he shall put him to death.
then the elders of his city shall send and fetch him thence, and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die.
But the husbandmen, when they saw the son, said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and take his inheritance.
But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.
