Numbers 35

²⁰ Likewise, if anyone maliciously pushes another or intentionally throws an object at him and kills him,

²¹ or if in hostility he strikes him with his hand and he dies, the one who struck him must surely be put to death; he is a murderer. When the avenger of blood finds the murderer, he is to kill him.

²² But if anyone pushes a person suddenly, without hostility, or throws an object at him unintentionally,

²³ or without looking drops a heavy stone that kills him, but he was not an enemy and did not intend to harm him,

²⁴ then the congregation must judge between the slayer and the avenger of blood according to these ordinances.
