申命記 19
1 當上主你天主消滅了那些異民，上主你的天主將他們的土地賜給了你，而你佔領了那地，住在他們的城鎮和房屋裏以後，
If he will cut off Yahweh God your the nations which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to you land their and you will dispossess them and you will dwell in cities their and in houses their.
2 應在上主你的天主賜給你作產業的地方，劃出三座城，
Three cities you will set apart for yourself in [the] midst of land your which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to you to take possession of it.
3 修好到那裏去的道路，將上主你的天主給你作產業的地方，分為三個區域，這樣使殺了人的，可逃到那裏去。
You will establish for yourself the journey and you will divide into three [the] territory of land your which he will give as an inheritance you Yahweh God your and it will be to flee there towards every killer.
4 殺人犯逃到那裏得保全性命的案件應是這樣：假使有人無意殺了鄰人，彼此又素無仇怨：
And this [will be] [the] case of the killer who he will flee there towards and he will live who he will strike companion his with not knowledge and he not [was] hating him from yesterday [the] third day.
5 比如他與鄰人同去林中伐樹，當他手揮斧子伐樹時，斧頭脫了柄，落在鄰人身上，以致斃命，他就可逃到這些城中的一座城去，為保全性命，
And who he will go with companion his in the forest to cut wood and it will be impelled hand his by the axe to cut down the tree and it will slip off the iron from the tree and it will find companion his and he will die he he will flee to one of the cities these and he will live.
6 以免報血仇者心中發火追趕殺人者，因路途遙遠，而能趕上他，將他殺死；其實他與那人素無仇怨，罪不該死。
Lest he should pursue [the] avenger of blood after the killer for it will be hot heart his and he will overtake him for it will be great the journey and he will strike him life and [belonged] to him not a sentence of death for not [was] hating he him from yesterday [the] third day.
7 為此我吩咐你：應劃出三座城。
There-fore I [am] commanding you saying three cities you will set apart for yourself.
8 當上主你的天主，照他向你的祖先誓許的，擴展了你的疆域，將許下要給你祖先的整個土地賜給你時，──
And if he will enlarge Yahweh God your territory your just as he swore to ancestors your and he will give to you all the land which he spoke to give to ancestors your.
9 倘若你謹守遵行我今日吩咐你的這一切誡命，愛上主你的天主，日日履行他的道路，──你應在這三座城以外，另設三座城，
If you will keep all the commandment this to do it which I [am] commanding you this day to love Yahweh God your and to walk in ways his all the days and you will add for yourself again three cities to the three [cities] these.
10 免得無罪者的血，流在上主你的天主賜給你作產業的土地上，血債歸在你身上。
And not it will be shed blood innocent in [the] midst of land your which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to you an inheritance and it will be on you blood.
11 但是，如果有人懷恨自己的鄰人，埋伏突擊他，而將他殺死，然後逃到這些城中的一座，
And if he will be anyone hating neighbor his and he will lie in wait for him and he will rise up on him and he will strike him life and he will die and he will flee to one of the cities these.
12 他本城的長老應派人去，將他從那裏逮回，交於報血仇者手中，將他處死；
And they will send [the] elders of city his and they will take him from there and they will give him in [the] hand of [the] avenger of blood and he will die.
13 你不可憐視他，而應由以色列中洗除無辜的血：如此你纔能平安無事。
Not it will look with pity eye your on him and you will remove [the] blood of the innocent [person] from Israel and it will be good to you.
14 在上主你的天主賜給你作產業所分得的土地上，不可移動你鄰人的地界，因為是先人所劃定的。
Not you will displace [the] boundary of neighbor your which they set bounds ancestors in inheritance your which you will inherit in the land which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to you to take possession of it.
15 人無論犯了什麼不義，什麼罪惡，或什麼過錯，只憑一個見證，罪名不得成立；須憑兩個或三個見證的口供，纔可定案。
Not he will stand a witness one in anyone to any iniquity and to any sin in any sin which he will sin on [the] mouth of - two witnesses or on [the] mouth of three witnesses it will stand a matter.
16 若有人懷有惡意，起來作證控告某人犯法，
That he will stand a witness of injustice in anyone to testify against him rebellion.
17 二人應一同站在上主面前，和值班的司祭及判官面前。
And they will stand [the] two the people whom [belongs] to them the dispute before Yahweh before the priests and the judges who they will be in the days those.
18 判官應仔細考問。若那作證的是一個假證人，誣告自己的兄弟，
And they will investigate the judges thoroughly and there! [is] a witness of falsehood the witness falsehood he has testified against countryman his.
19 你就應對付他，如同他想對付自己的兄弟一樣：這樣你便由你中間剷除了這邪惡，
And you will do to him just as he planned to do to countryman his and you will remove the evil from midst your.
20 其餘的人聽了，必然害怕，在你中間再不致有這樣的惡事發生。
And the remainder they will hear and they may fear and not they will repeat to do again like the thing evil this in midst your.
21 你不可發慈悲，要以命償命，以眼還眼，以牙還牙，以手還手，以腳還腳。
And not it will look with pity eye your life for life eye for eye tooth for tooth hand for hand foot for foot.
