פֶּן יִרְדֹּף֩ גֹּאֵ֨ל הַ/דָּ֜ם אַחֲרֵ֣י הָ/רֹצֵ֗חַ כִּי יֵחַם֮ לְבָב/וֹ֒ וְ/הִשִּׂיג֛/וֹ כִּֽי יִרְבֶּ֥ה הַ/דֶּ֖רֶךְ וְ/הִכָּ֣ה/וּ נָ֑פֶשׁ וְ/ל/וֹ֙ אֵ֣ין מִשְׁפַּט מָ֔וֶת כִּ֠י לֹ֣א שֹׂנֵ֥א ה֛וּא ל֖/וֹ מִ/תְּמ֥וֹל שִׁלְשֽׁוֹם
English Translation
Lest the avenger of blood pursue the murderer, for his heart will be hot, and he will overtake him, because the way is long, and he will strike down his soul, and there is no judgment of death for him, for he is not hated for him since yesterday or the day before.
