Yosiua 20

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

And the Lord spoke 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 for yourselves the cities of refuge, whereof I have spoken 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 thither may flee the manslayer that killeth any person unawares, without knowledge; and they shall be unto you for a refuge from the avenger of the 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 he shall flee unto one of those cities, and he shall stand at the entrance of the gate of the city, and speak in the ears of the elders of that city his words; and 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 the blood should pursue after him, then shall they not deliver the manslayer up into his hand; because without knowledge did he smite his neighbor, and he was not an enemy to him in time past.

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 shall have stood before the congregation for judgment, [and] until the death of the high-priest that may be in those days: then shall the manslayer return, and come unto his own house, unto the city whence he hath 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 the mountain of Naphtali, and Shechem in the mountain of Ephraim, and Kiryath-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 of the Jordan by Jericho eastward, they appointed Bezer in the wilderness in the plain from the tribe of Reuben, and Ramoth in Gil'ad from the tribe of Gad, and Golan in Bashan from the tribe of Menasseh.

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 assigned for all the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them, that thither might flee whosoever killeth any person at unawares, and that he should not die by the hand of the avenger of the blood, until he have stood before the congregation.
