#1  "If someone rises up to kill you, kill him first,"

in Babylonia Talmud, tractate Berachos (much of which deals with how to do blessings), folio page 58.

it is a pretty famous sentence, sometimes the 'somebody rises up to kill you' is called the pursuer. It is derived from Ex XXII: 1 which specifies the condition of discovering a thief.
