If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being matters of controversy within thy gates; then shalt thou arise, and get thee up unto the place which Jehovah thy God shall choose;

If you are not able to give a decision as to who is responsible for a death, or who is right in a cause, or who gave the first blow in a fight, and there is a division of opinion about it in your town: then go to the place marked out by the Lord your God;

Εαν τυχη εις σε υποθεσις τις πολυ δυσκολος να κρινης αυτην, αναμεσον αιματος και αιματος, αναμεσον δικης και δικης, και αναμεσον πληγης και πληγης, υποθεσεις αμφισβητησιμοι εντος των πολεων σου, τοτε θελεις σηκωθη και θελεις αναβη εις τον τοπον οντινα εκλεξη Κυριος ο Θεος σου·

If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being matters of controversy within thy gates: then shalt thou arise, and get thee up into the place which the Lord thy God shall choose;
