and it shall be, that the city which is nearest unto the slain man, even the elders of that city shall take a heifer of the herd, which hath not been wrought with, and which hath not drawn in the yoke;

And whichever town is nearest to the body, the responsible men of that town are to take from the herd a young cow which has never been used for work or put under the yoke;

και της πολεως, ητις ειναι η πλησιεστερα εις τον πεφονευμενον, οι πρεσβυτεροι της πολεως εκεινης θελουσι λαβει δαμαλιν, ητις δεν υπεβληθη εις εργασιαν ουδε εσυρεν υπο τον ζυγον·

And it shall be, that the city which is next unto the slain man, even the elders of that city shall take an heifer, which hath not been wrought with, and which hath not drawn in the yoke;
