7 They shall answer and say, “Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it.
8 Forgive, LORD, your people Israel, whom you have redeemed, and don’t allow innocent blood among your people Israel.” The blood shall be forgiven them.
9 So you shall put away the innocent blood from among you, when you shall do that which is right in the LORD’s eyes.
