< Numbers 35 >
1 The LORD spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho, saying,
Israel te Moab phaicham Jordan vadung pang Jerecho mun aum un PakaiyinMose henga thu asei peh in ahi.
2 “Command the children of Israel to give to the Levites cities to dwell in out of their inheritance. You shall give pasture lands for the cities around them to the Levites.
Isreal chate chenna mun ahin Levite goulo jong apeh na diu vin ajah uva thu sei peh in, khopi jouse kimvel la Levi miten gancha anei sun’u avah na diuvin mun jong na peh diu ahi.
3 They shall have the cities to dwell in. Their pasture lands shall be for their livestock, and for their possessions, and for all their animals.
Levi mite chu khopi chengse cheng diu, hamhing kena gambeh chengse jong bonghon vah na a anei uva aman chah diu ahi tai.
4 “The pasture lands of the cities, which you shall give to the Levites, shall be from the wall of the city and outward one thousand cubits around it.
Chule Levi mite gancha hon vahna dinga na peh diu gambeh chu khopi pal kigen kimvel apat tong sangkhat a sao gambeh sung napeh teidiu ahi.
5 You shall measure outside of the city for the east side two thousand cubits, and for the south side two thousand cubits, and for the west side two thousand cubits, and for the north side two thousand cubits, the city being in the middle. This shall be the pasture lands of their cities.
Hichu khopi pam solam tong sangni a sao na tedoh diu, lhanglam jong tong sangni ma na tedoh diu, chunglam jong tongsani na tedoh diu khopi chu a lailung tah a na umsah diu, khopi vel Jousea a kitedohsa mun chengse chu Levi mite gancha ho hamhing neh na muna anei diu ahi tai.
6 “The cities which you shall give to the Levites, they shall be the six cities of refuge, which you shall give for the man slayer to flee to. Besides them you shall give forty-two cities.
Levi mite chenna dinga na peh’u khoppi chengse chu kiselna khopi tia na minsah sohkei diu, hichu khopi gup ahin, nalah uva koi tabang mithat na um khah ule hiche khopi sung hoa hi na jam lut sah uva na kihuhhing sah diu, khopi hi chengse chung’a jong hi khopi somli leni na peh be nah lai diu ahiye.
7 All the cities which you shall give to the Levites shall be forty-eight cities together with their pasture lands.
Khopi somli le get chu Levi mite chen mun ding’a na peh diu, khopi kimvella hamhing umna chengse toh jaona napeh diu ahi.
8 Concerning the cities which you shall give of the possession of the children of Israel, from the many you shall take many, and from the few you shall take few. Everyone according to his inheritance which he inherits shall give some of his cities to the Levites.”
Khopi hichengse hi Israel chate chenna gamsunga konna na kehdoh peh diu, phung sung mitam ho chunga gam alenjo na lah diu, phungsung milhomna ho agambeh neojo na lah diu, nangma phung sung cheh akonna gambeh jong alen aneo dungjui cheh a Levi mite chen mun na peh sohkei diu ahi.
9 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Pakaiyin Mose henga hiti hin a seipeh in ahi.
10 “Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When you pass over the Jordan into the land of Canaan,
Israel chate jah a hitihin seiyin, Jordan vadung nagalkai uva Canaan gamsung nalut teng u-leh.
11 then you shall appoint for yourselves cities to be cities of refuge for you, that the man slayer who kills any person unwittingly may flee there.
Na kisel na diuva khopi phabep na kilhen doh diu, hetman louva khat chun mikhat atha khah tah ahile ama chu koi pen hijong le hiche khopi sunga hi jamlut a ki huhhing ding ahi.
12 The cities shall be for your refuge from the avenger, that the man slayer not die until he stands before the congregation for judgment.
Khopi chengse hi nangho ding’a phula pa akon kiselna leh ki huhhing na muna pang ding ahi. Ajeh chu koi hileh mithat penpen chu athu kicheh tah a akikhol doh masangse a kithat lou hel ding ahi.
13 The cities which you shall give shall be for you six cities of refuge.
Na todoh diu khopi chu aboncha kiselna a naman chah diu ahin, hichu khopi gup hi ding ahi.
14 You shall give three cities beyond the Jordan, and you shall give three cities in the land of Canaan. They shall be cities of refuge.
Kiselna khopi lah achu Jordan vadung gal lamma khopi thum hi ding, agal lang khat a khopi thumna todoh diu, hiche khopi thum hochu Canaan gamsung hi ding ahiye.
15 These six cities shall be refuge for the children of Israel, for the stranger, and for the foreigner living among them, that everyone who kills any person unwittingly may flee there.
Israel mi ahin, kholgam khopem mi ahin, ahung kholjin mi hi jong leh kiselna a naman chah diu ahi. Na lah uva koi hileh mi that’a khutsoi a-umkhah tah a ahile hiche khopi gup ho’a hi jam lut a ki huhhing ding ahi.
16 “‘But if he struck him with an instrument of iron, so that he died, he is a murderer. The murderer shall surely be put to death.
Nalah uva koihile hem lamma mithat jeng’a chu tolthat a kisim ahi tan, hitabang a tolthat mihem chu thina chan gotna achung’a lhung ding ahi.
17 If he struck him with a stone in the hand, by which a man may die, and he died, he is a murderer. The murderer shall surely be put to death.
Chuleh song-tum ham khat a-manchah’a mi khattou chu asuh a amun’a chu athi den jeng tah ahile hiche jong chu tolthat a kisim ahi tan, tolthat mihem kiti phot chu achunga thina chan gotna kipie ding ahi.
18 Or if he struck him with a weapon of wood in the hand, by which a man may die, and he died, he is a murderer. The murderer shall surely be put to death.
Khat touvin thingtum ham khat chu a manchah a mi khattou ajep a a jeppa jong chu amuna a thi den jeng tah a ahile ama jong chu tolthat a kisim ahi tan, hi tabanga tolthat chu thina chan gotna peh teitei ding ahi.
19 The avenger of blood shall himself put the murderer to death. When he meets him, he shall put him to death.
Thisan phulah ding’a alunga voppa chun tolthat pa chung’a chu thina a-chansah teitei ding ahi.
20 If he shoved him out of hatred, or hurled something at him while lying in wait, so that he died,
Mi khat touvin mihem khat chu achan lhih keija vetda jeh a atha jeng tah a ahile.
21 or in hostility struck him with his hand, so that he died, he who struck him shall surely be put to death. He is a murderer. The avenger of blood shall put the murderer to death when he meets him.
Chuleh kitomona a-nei jeh lhonna asuh lih jeng ahi jong leh hitabang’a khutsoi mihem pa chung’a chu thina chan gotna peh teitei ding, ajeh chu ama jong chu tolthat a pang ahitan, thisan phulah ding lungpu pachu a-kimupi teng thina achansah teitei ding ahi.
22 “‘But if he shoved him suddenly without hostility, or hurled on him anything without lying in wait,
Ki-tomona ima neipi hilou, aki changlhi le hilouva tohhai ja a selih jeng khah ham,
23 or with any stone, by which a man may die, not seeing him, and cast it on him so that he died, and he was not his enemy and not seeking his harm,
Chule songkhat alah a mikhat tou muchen louva ase khah jeng tah a mipa jong chu amun’a athi jeng tah leh, hichepa toh chun akah a boina ima nei lou ahinah leh.
24 then the congregation shall judge between the striker and the avenger of blood according to these ordinances.
Khopi a-chu mithatpa leh thisan phulah ding lunggel pa kikah’a thutanna dan tampi toh tho’a asem diu ahi.
25 The congregation shall deliver the man slayer out of the hand of the avenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore him to his city of refuge, where he had fled. He shall dwell therein until the death of the high priest, who was anointed with the holy oil.
Thisan-phu lah ding lunggel neipa akonna mithatpa chu khopi chun a-huhdoh ding, mithat pan jong khopi chu kiselna’a aman ding, mithatpa jam lutna in penpen a-chu achensah diu, ama jong hiche khopi sunga chu thaotui theng changsa thempupa adam sung’a cheng ding ahi.
26 “‘But if the man slayer shall at any time go beyond the border of his city of refuge where he flees,
Ama vang hiche mithatpa chu a deiphat phat in khopi akon chun avella ana chedoh ta hen lang,
27 and the avenger of blood finds him outside of the border of his city of refuge, and the avenger of blood kills the man slayer, he shall not be guilty of blood,
Hitia achedoh laitah chun gamning lah khat a thisan phu lah nompa chun hiche mithatpa chu ana that jeng taleh ama thisen jeh’a chu Thempu pa thepmona ima umlou ding ahi.
28 because he should have remained in his city of refuge until the death of the high priest. But after the death of the high priest, the man slayer shall return into the land of his possession.
Hijeh achu mithatpa jong thempulen pa adam sung’a hiche khopi sung’a chu umjing ding ahi.
29 “‘These things shall be for a statute and ordinance to you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
Hiche hi nakhang khang uva chonna dan a na nei jing diu ahiye.
30 “‘Whoever kills any person, the murderer shall be slain based on the testimony of witnesses; but one witness shall not testify alone against any person so that he dies.
Mi khattou vin mihem khat chung’a hem alap a atha jeng tah ahile, hiche mithatpa chu hettohsah ho thutan dungjuija che ding, ahin lah hettohsah khat jeng seh sei vanga mithatpa hinkho chu kimoh suh mang jeng thei lou ahi.
31 “‘Moreover you shall take no ransom for the life of a murderer who is guilty of death. He shall surely be put to death.
Chule thina changei ja gotna chang ding mihem khat chung’a chu thilong man kilahna nanei thei lou hel diu, tolthatpa vang chu thina na chansah teitei diu ahi.
32 “‘You shall take no ransom for him who has fled to his city of refuge, that he may come again to dwell in the land before the death of the priest.
Aki huhhing na dinga khopia jamlut tolthatpa jal'a longman jeng jong thempulen pa damsunga na kilah louhel diu ahiye.
33 “‘So you shall not pollute the land where you live; for blood pollutes the land. No atonement can be made for the land for the blood that is shed in it, but by the blood of him who shed it.
Hitia hi na gamsung’u na suhboh thei loudiu, ajeh chu thisan jal’a gamsung boh ji ahin, gamsung suh thengna ding’a thil dang ima aum pon, agam chu thisan kiso jeng ahi tan hichu thisen sopa chung’a bouchu suh theng theina lampi um ahi.
34 You shall not defile the land which you inhabit, where I dwell; for I, the LORD, dwell among the children of Israel.’”
Hijeh chun nachen nau gamsung hi thisan a na suhboh thei louhel diu, keima hiche gam lailungtah in kacheng in, Pakai, Pathen hi Israel mite lailunga acheng jing e, tia ajah uva naseipeh ding ahi.
