যিহোশূয়ের বই 20
1 পরে সদাপ্রভু যিহোশূয়কে বললেন:
౧యెహోవా యెహోషువతో ఇలా చెప్పాడు,
2 “তুমি ইস্রায়েলীদের বলো, আমি যেমন মোশির মাধ্যমে তোমাদের নির্দেশ দিয়েছিলাম, তারা যেন তেমনই আশ্রয়-নগরগুলি মনোনীত করে।
౨“నీవు ఇశ్రాయేలీయులతో ఈ విధంగా చెప్పాలి, తెలియక పొరపాటున ఎవరినైనా చంపిన హంతకుడు పారిపోడానికి నేను మోషే ద్వారా మీతో పలికించిన ఆశ్రయ పట్టణాలు మీరు ఏర్పరచుకోవాలి.
3 কেউ যদি দুর্ঘটনাবশত বা অনিচ্ছাকৃতভাবে কোনো মানুষকে হত্যা করে ফেলে, সে যেন সেখানে পালিয়ে যেতে পারে। এর ফলে রক্তপাতের প্রতিশোধদাতার হাত থেকে সে রক্ষা পাবে।
౩హత్య విషయమై ప్రతిహత్య చేసేవాడు రాకుండా అవి మీకు ఆశ్రయ పట్టణాలవుతాయి.
4 এসব নগরের কোনো একটিতে তারা যখন পালিয়ে যাবে, তখন তারা নগর-দুয়ারের সামনে গিয়ে দাঁড়াবে এবং সেই নগরের প্রাচীনদের কাছে নিজেদের বক্তব্য উপস্থাপন করবে। পরে তারা পলাতককে তাদের নগরে প্রবেশ করতে দেবে ও তাদের সঙ্গে বসবাস করার জন্য একটি স্থান নির্দিষ্ট করে দেবে।
౪ఒకడు ఆ పట్టణాల్లో ఒక దానికి పారిపోయి ఆ పట్టణ ద్వారం దగ్గర నిలబడి, ఆ పట్టణపు పెద్దలు వినేలా తన సంగతి చెప్పిన తరువాత, వారు పట్టణంలోకి అతనిని చేర్చుకుని తమ దగ్గర నివసించడానికి స్థలమివ్వాలి.
5 রক্তপাতের জন্য প্রতিশোধদাতা যদি তার পিছু ধাওয়া করে যায়, তবে প্রাচীনেরা যেন সেই পলাতককে তার হাতে সমর্পণ না করে, কারণ সে তার প্রতিবেশীকে অনিচ্ছাকৃতভাবে এবং পূর্বপরিকল্পিত কোনো বিদ্বেষ ছাড়াই মেরে ফেলেছিল।
౫హత్య విషయంలో ప్రతి హత్య చేసేవాడు అతనిని తరిమితే అతని చేతికి ఆ నరహంతకుని అప్పగించకూడదు. ఎందుకంటే అతడు పొరపాటున తన పొరుగువాని చంపాడు గాని అంతకు మునుపు వాని మీద పగపట్టలేదు.
6 যতক্ষণ না তারা বিচারের জন্য মণ্ডলীর সামনে গিয়ে দাঁড়ায় এবং যতদিন না সেই সময়কার মহাযাজকের মৃত্যু হয়, তাদের সেই নগরেই থেকে যেতে হবে। পরে তারা যেখান থেকে পালিয়েছিল, নিজের বাড়িতে, তাদের নিজস্ব নগরে ফিরে যেতে পারবে।”
౬అతడు సమాజం ముందు విచారణకు నిలబడే వరకూ, ఆ రోజుల్లో ఉన్న యాజకుడు చనిపోయే వరకూ ఆ పట్టణంలోనే నివసించాలి. తరువాత ఆ నరహంతకుడు ఏ పట్టణం నుండి పారిపోయాడో ఆ పట్టణంలోని తన ఇంటికి తిరిగి రావాలి.”
7 তাই তারা নপ্তালি গোষ্ঠীর এলাকায় পার্বত্য প্রদেশের অন্তর্ভুক্ত গালীলের কেদশ, ইফ্রয়িম গোষ্ঠীর পার্বত্য প্রদেশের শিখিম ও যিহূদা গোষ্ঠীর পার্বত্য প্রদেশের কিরিয়ৎ-অর্বকে (বা হিব্রোণকে) পৃথক করল।
౭అప్పుడు వాళ్ళు గలిలీలోని నఫ్తాలి కొండ ప్రదేశంలో ఉన్న కెదెషు, ఎఫ్రాయిం కొండ ప్రదేశంలోని షెకెం, యూదా కొండ ప్రదేశంలోని హెబ్రోను అనే కిర్యతర్బాను ప్రతిష్ఠించారు.
8 যিরীহোর জর্ডন নদীর পূর্বপারের এলাকায় তারা রূবেণ গোষ্ঠীর অন্তর্ভুক্ত মালভূমির মরু এলাকার বেৎসর, গাদ গোষ্ঠীর অন্তর্ভুক্ত গিলিয়দের রামোৎ এবং মনঃশি গোষ্ঠীর অন্তর্ভুক্ত বাশনের গোলন, আশ্রয়-নগররূপে পৃথক করল।
౮తూర్పు వైపున యొర్దాను అవతల యెరికో దగ్గర రూబేను గోత్రం నుండి మైదానం మీద ఉన్న అరణ్యంలోని బేసెరు, గాదు గోత్రం నుండి గిలాదు లోని రామోతు, మనష్షే గోత్రం నుండి బాషానులోని గోలానులను నియమించారు.
9 কোনো ইস্রায়েলী বা তাদের মধ্যে বসবাসকারী বিদেশি ব্যক্তি, যে দুর্ঘটনাবশত কাউকে হত্যা করেছে, সে এই নির্ধারিত নগরগুলির যে কোনো একটিতে পালিয়ে যেতে পারবে। তবে সে মণ্ডলীর সাক্ষাতে বিচারিত হওয়ার আগে রক্তপাতের জন্য প্রতিশোধদাতার হাতে নিহত হবে না।
౯పొరపాటున ఒకడి చంపినవాడు అక్కడికి పారిపోయి హత్యవిషయమై ప్రతిహత్య చేసేవాడు చంపకుండా ఉండేలా సమాజం ముందు నిలబడే వరకూ ఇశ్రాయేలీయులందరికీ వారిమధ్య నివసించే పరదేశులకూ నియమించిన పట్టణాలు ఇవి.
