< Joshua 20 >
1 And the Lord spoke to Joshua, saying,
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Joshua,
2 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Assign the cities of refuge, [of] which I spoke to you by Moses.
“Fahk nu sin mwet Israel elos in sulela siti in molela oana ke nga tuh fahk Moses elan fahkot nu sum.
3 [Even] a refuge to the slayer who has smitten a man unintentionally; and the cities shall be to you a refuge, and the slayer shall not be put to death by the avenger of blood, until he have stood before the congregation for judgment.
Fin oasr mwet se uniya sie mwet ke tia ma el akoo in orala a ma ke ongla ouiya, elan ku in kaingla nu we ac suk molela liki mwet se ma suk in foloksak nu sel an.
4 And Joshua separated Cades in Galilee in the mount Nephthali, and Sychem in the mount Ephraim, and the city of Arboc; this is Chebron, in the mountain of Juda.
El fin kaingla nu in sie siti inge, el enenu in tui ke acn in nununku ke acn in utyak an, ac fahkak ma se el orala an nu sin mwet kol in siti sacn. Na elos fah ku in eisal nu in siti sac ac sang sie acn elan muta we.
5 And beyond Jordan he appointed Bosor in the wilderness in the plain out of the tribe of Ruben, and Aremoth in Galaad out of the tribe of Gad, and Gaulon in the country of Basan out of the tribe of Manasse.
Mwet sukok foloksak inge fin ukwal nu in acn sac, na mwet in siti sac elos tia ku in eisalang nu sel mweyen inkanek in ongla ouiya se pa el tuh eisla moul lun mwet sac kac ah, ac tia ma el akola sel in oru.
6 These [were] the cities selected for the sons of Israel, and for the stranger abiding among them, that every one who smites a soul unintentionally should flee thither, that he should not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, until he should stand before the congregation for judgment.
Mwet sac enenu in mutana in siti sac nwe ke na orekla nununku nu sel sin mwet kol in acn sac, ac nwe ke na Mwet Tol Fulat se lun Israel in pacl sac el misa. Tukun pacl se inge, na mwet sacn fah ku in folokla nu in acn sel ma el kaingla we me.”
