Yosiua 20

1 Amalalu, Hina Gode da Yosiuama amane sia: i,

The LORD also spake unto Joshua, saying,

2 “Isala: ili dunuma amane sia: ma, ‘Dabe Fasa: besa: le Gaga: su Moilai bai bagade amo Na da Mousese e da dilima alofele olelema: ne sia: i, amo ilegema.

Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Appoint out for you cities of refuge, whereof I spake unto you by the hand of Moses:

3 Nowa dunu da mae ougili giadofale eno dunu fane legesea, e da maga: me dabe iasu dunu amoga medole legesa: besa: le, amo Dabe Fasa: besa: le Gaga: su Moilai bai bagadega hobeamu da defea.

That the slayer that killeth [any] person unawares [and] unwittingly may flee thither: and they shall be your refuge from the avenger of blood.

4 E da Dabe Fasa: besa: le Gaga: su Moilai bai bagade afae amoga hobeale asili, fofada: su sogebi amo moilai bai bagade ea logo holeiga asili, moilai bai bagade ouligisu dunu ilima hou da ema doaga: i olelemu. Amasea, ilia da ema logo doasili, e amo moilai bai bagade ganodini esaloma: ne, ea golasu hogomu.

And when he that doth flee unto one of those cities shall stand at the entering of the gate of the city, and shall declare his cause in the ears of the elders of that city, they shall take him into the city unto them, and give him a place, that he may dwell among them.

5 Be maga: me dabe lamu dunu da ema fa: no bobogele, amo moilai bai bagadega doaga: sea, Dabe Fasa: besa: le Gaga: su Moilai bai bagade fi dunu da gaga: i dunu amo dabe lamu dunuma hame imunu. Ilia da amo dunu gaga: mu. Bai e da mae ougili, hame dawa: iwane amo dunu mae ougili giadofale medole legei.

And if the avenger of blood pursue after him, then they shall not deliver the slayer up into his hand; because he smote his neighbour unwittingly, and hated him not beforetime.

6 E da amo Dabe Fasa: besa: le Gaga: su Moilai bai bagade ganodini esalu, dunu huluane ba: ma: ne fofada: sea amola Gobele salasu Ouligisu dunu da bogosea, e da hi moilai amoga e da hobea: i, amoga buhagimu da defea.’”

And he shall dwell in that city, until he stand before the congregation for judgment, [and] until the death of the high priest that shall be in those days: then shall the slayer return, and come unto his own city, and unto his own house, unto the city from whence he fled.

7 Amaiba: le, ilia da Yodane Hano eso dabe la: idi, Dabe Fasa: besa: le Gaga: su Moilai bai bagade udiana ilegei. Amo da Gidese (Ga: lili soge ganodini Na: fadalai agolo sogega galu), Siegeme (Ifala: ime agolo soge ganodini) amola Hibalone (Yuda agolo soge ganodini.)

And they appointed Kedesh in Galilee in mount Naphtali, and Shechem in mount Ephraim, and Kirjath-arba, which [is] Hebron, in the mountain of Judah.

8 Yodane Hano eso mabadi la: idi, ilia hafoga: i soge Yeligou eso mabadi la: idiga galu, amoga Dabe Fasa: besa: le Gaga: su Moilai bai bagade udiana ilegei. Amo da Bise (Liubene ea soge ganodini), La: imode (Gilia: de soge ganodini - amo da Ga: de fi ilia soge) amola Goula: ne (Ba: isa: ne sogebi ganodini - amo da Ma: na: se fi ilia soge).

And on the other side Jordan by Jericho eastward, they assigned Bezer in the wilderness upon the plain out of the tribe of Reuben, and Ramoth in Gilead out of the tribe of Gad, and Golan in Bashan out of the tribe of Manasseh.

9 Amo da Dabe Fasa: besa: le Gaga: su Moilai bai bagade ilegei, Isala: ili dunu o ga fi ilia fi ganodini esalu amo gaga: musa: Nowa dunu da mae hanaiwane, mae ougili dunu eno giadofale fane legesea, e da maga: me dabe iasu dunuma gaga: musa: amo moilaiga masa: mu. Amo dunu da maga: me dabe iasu dunu amoga medole legemu da hamedei. E da dunu huluane ba: ma: ne fofada: sea, hi da hi hanaiga medole legei amo ba: sea fawane hame gaga: mu.

These were the cities appointed for all the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them, that whosoever killeth [any] person at unawares might flee thither, and not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, until he stood before the congregation.
