Yosiua 20
1 Amalalu, Hina Gode da Yosiuama amane sia: i,
The LORD spoke to 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, ‘Assign the cities of refuge, of which I spoke to you by 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 man slayer who kills any person accidentally or unintentionally may flee there. They shall be to you for a 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.
He shall flee to one of those cities, and shall stand at the entrance of the gate of the city, and declare his case in the ears of the elders of that city. They shall take him into the city with them, and give him a place, that he may live 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.
If the avenger of blood pursues him, then they shall not deliver up the man slayer into his hand; because he struck his neighbor unintentionally, and didn’t hate him before.
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.’”
He shall dwell in that city until he stands before the congregation for judgment, until the death of the high priest that shall be in those days. Then the man slayer shall return, and come to his own city, and to his own house, to the city he fled from.’”
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.)
They set apart Kedesh in Galilee in the hill country of Naphtali, Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim, and Kiriath Arba (also called Hebron) in the hill country 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).
Beyond the Jordan at Jericho eastward, they assigned Bezer in the wilderness in the plain out of the tribe of Reuben, 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 appointed cities for all the children of Israel, and for the alien who lives among them, that whoever kills any person unintentionally might flee there, and not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, until he stands trial before the congregation.
