Deuteronomy 21:7-9 Laws of Worship and Justice

7 and they shall declare: “Our hands did not shed this blood, nor did our eyes see it done.

8 Accept this atonement for your people Israel, whom you have redeemed, O Lord, and do not hold your people guilty of the blood of an innocent man.” And the bloodshed will be atoned for.

9 So you will purge from yourselves the guilt of shedding innocent blood, since you have done what is right in the eyes of the Lord.
