But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die;	Or in enmity smite him with his hand, that he die: he that smote [him] shall surely be put to death; [for] he [is] a murderer: the revenger of blood shall slay the murderer, when he meeteth him.	But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait,
