Deuteronomy 21:4 YLT

²  then have thine elders and thy judges gone out and measured unto the cities which 'are' round about the slain one,

³  and it hath been, the city which 'is' near unto the slain one, even the elders of that city have taken a heifer of the herd, which hath not been wrought with, which hath not drawn in the yoke,

⁴  and the elders of that city have brought down the heifer unto a hard valley, which is not tilled nor sown, and have beheaded there the heifer in the valley.

⁵  'And the priests, sons of Levi, have come nigh -- for on them hath Jehovah thy God fixed to serve Him, and to bless in the name of Jehovah, and by their mouth is every strife, and every stroke --

⁶  and all the elders of that city, who are near unto the slain one, do wash their hands over the heifer which is beheaded in the valley,
