Numbers 35
1 And the Lord also spoke these things to Moses in the plains of Moab, above the Jordan, opposite Jericho:
Još reèe Gospod Mojsiju u polju Moavskom na Jordanu prema Jerihonu govoreæi:
2 “Instruct the sons of Israel, so that they may give to the Levites, from their possessions,
Zapovjedi sinovima Izrailjevijem neka dadu od našljedstva svojega Levitima gradove, gdje æe živjeti; i podgraða oko gradova podajte im,
3 cities as dwelling places, with their surrounding suburbs, so that they may lodge in the towns, and so that the suburbs may be for cattle and beasts of burden.
Da u gradovima žive, a u podgraðima njihovijem da im stoji stoka i imanje njihovo i sve životinje njihove.
4 The suburbs shall extend from the outer walls of the cities, all around, for the space of one thousand steps.
A podgraða koja date Levitima neka budu na tisuæu lakata daleko od zidova gradskih unaokolo.
5 Facing the east, there shall be two thousand cubits, and facing the south, similarly, there shall be two thousand cubits. Toward the sea, also, which looks out toward the west, there shall be the same measure, and the northern region shall be bounded by equal limits. And the cities shall be in the center, and the suburbs shall be outside.
Zato izmjerite iza svakoga grada na istok dvije tisuæe lakata, i na jug dvije tisuæe lakata, i na zapad dvije tisuæe lakata, i na sjever dvije tisuæe lakata, tako da grad bude u srijedi. Tolika neka budu podgraða njihova.
6 Now, from the towns which you shall give to the Levites, six shall be separated for the assistance of fugitives, so that he who has shed blood may flee to them. And, aside from these, there shall be forty-two other towns,
A od gradova koje date Levitima odvojte šest gradova za utoèište, da onamo uteèe ko bi koga ubio; i osim njih podajte im èetrdeset i dva grada.
7 that is, all together forty-eight with their suburbs.
Svega gradova, koje æete dati Levitima da bude èetrdeset i osam gradova, svaki sa svojim podgraðem.
8 And concerning these cities, which shall be given from the possessions of the sons of Israel: from those who have more, more shall be taken, and from those who have less, less shall be taken. Each shall give towns to the Levites according to the measure of their inheritance.”
A tijeh gradova što æete dati od našljedstva sinova Izrailjevijeh, od onijeh koji imaju više podajte više, a od onijeh koji imaju manje podajte manje; svaki prema našljedstvu koje æe imati neka da od svojih gradova Levitima.
9 The Lord said to Moses:
Još reèe Gospod Mojsiju govoreæi:
10 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: When you will have crossed the Jordan into the land of Canaan,
Reci sinovima Izrailjevijem i kaži im: kad prijeðete preko Jordana u zemlju Hanansku,
11 discern which cities ought to be for the protection of fugitives who have shed blood unwillingly.
Od gradova koji vam dopadnu odvojte gradove za utoèište da u njih uteèe krvnik koji ubije koga nehotice.
12 And when a fugitive is in these, the kinsman of the deceased shall not be able to kill him, until he stands in the sight of the multitude and his case is judged.
I ti æe vam gradovi biti utoèišta od osvetnika, da ne pogine krvnik dokle ne stane na sud pred zbor.
13 Then, among those cities which are separated for relief to fugitives,
I tako od tijeh gradova koje date šest gradova biæe vam utoèišta.
14 three shall be across the Jordan, and three in the land of Canaan,
Tri taka grada podajte s ovu stranu Jordana, a tri grada podajte u zemlji Hananskoj, ti gradovi neka budu utoèišta.
15 as much for the sons of Israel as for newcomers and sojourners, so that anyone who has shed blood unwillingly may flee to these places.
Sinovima Izrailjevijem i došljaku i strancu, koji se bavi meðu njima, neka tijeh šest gradova budu utoèišta, da uteèe u njih ko god ubije koga nehotice.
16 If anyone will have struck someone with iron, and he who was struck will have died, then he shall be guilty of homicide, and he himself shall die.
Ali ako gvožðem udari koga, te onaj umre, krvnik je, neka se pogubi taki krvnik.
17 If he will have thrown a stone, and he who has been struck lies dead, then he shall be punished similarly.
I ako kamenom iz ruke, od kojega može èovjek poginuti, udari koga, te onaj umre, krvnik je, neka se pogubi taki krvnik.
18 If he who has been struck with wood passes away, he shall be avenged by the blood of the one who struck him.
Ili ako drvetom iz ruke, od kojega može èovjek poginuti, udari koga, te onaj umre, krvnik je, neka se pogubi taki krvnik.
19 The close relative of the deceased shall put to death the murderer; as soon as he apprehends him, he shall put him to death.
Osvetnik neka pogubi krvnika; kad ga udesi, neka ga pogubi.
20 If, out of hatred, anyone assaults a man, or throws anything at him with ill intent,
Ako ga iz mržnje turi, ili se baci èim na nj navalice, te onaj umre,
21 or, while being his enemy, strikes him with his hand, and so he has died, the attacker shall be guilty of murder. The kinsman of the deceased, as soon as he finds him, shall cut his throat.
Ili ako ga iz neprijateljstva udari rukom, te onaj umre, neka se pogubi taki ubojica, krvnik je; osvetnik neka pogubi toga krvnika kad ga udesi.
22 But if by chance, and without hatred
Ako li ga nehotice turi bez neprijateljstva, ili se baci na nj èim nehotice,
23 or animosity, he will have done any of these things,
Ili kamenom od kojega može èovjek poginuti, ako se baci na nj nehotice, te onaj umre, a nije mu neprijatelj, niti mu traži zla,
24 and this has been proven in the hearing of the people, and the questions have been aired, between the one who struck and the close relative,
Tada da sudi zbor izmeðu ubojice i osvetnika po ovom zakonu.
25 then the innocent one shall be freed from the hand of the revenger, and he shall be returned by this judgment into the city to which he had fled, and he shall stay there until the high priest, who has been anointed with the holy oil, dies.
I zbor neka izbavi krvnika iz ruke osvetnikove i vrati ga u utoèište njegovo, kuda je utekao, i ondje neka ostane dokle ne umre poglavar sveštenièki, koji je pomazan svetim uljem.
26 If the one who has killed has been found beyond the limits of the cities which have been assigned to the exiled,
Ako krvnik kako god izide preko meðe svojega utoèišta, u koje je utekao,
27 and he has been struck by him who is avenging blood, he who killed him shall not be harmed.
I naðe ga osvetnik preko meðe utoèišta njegova, ako krvnika ubije osvetnik, neæe biti kriv za krv.
28 For the fugitive ought to have resided in the city, until the death of the high priest. Then, after he is dead, the one who has killed shall be returned to his own land.
Jer u utoèištu svojem valja da stoji dokle ne umre poglavar sveštenièki; pa kad umre poglavar sveštenièki, onda treba da se vrati krvnik u zemlju našljedstva svojega.
29 These things shall be a perpetual ordinance in all your habitations.
Ovo da vam je uredba za suðenje od koljena do koljena po svijem stanovima vašim.
30 The punishment of a murderer shall be based upon testimony; but no one shall be condemned upon the testimony of only one person.
Ko bi htio pogubiti èovjeka, po svjedocima neka pogubi krvnika; ali jedan svjedok ne može svjedoèiti da se ko pogubi.
31 You shall not accept money from him who is guilty of blood, and he shall be put to death promptly.
Ne uzimajte otkupa za krvnika, koji zasluži smrt, nego neka se pogubi.
32 Exiles and fugitives, prior to the death of the high priest, are by no means able to be returned to their own cities.
Ni od onoga ne uzimajte otkupa koji uteèe u utoèište, da bi se vratio da živi u svojoj zemlji prije nego umre sveštenik;
33 Do not pollute the land of your habitation, so as to stain it with the blood of the innocent; neither is it able to be expiated in any way other than by the blood of him who has shed the blood of another.
Da ne biste skvrnili zemlju u kojoj ste, jer krv ona skvrni zemlju, a zemlja se ne može oèistiti od krvi koja se prolije na njoj drukèije nego krvlju onoga koji je prolije.
34 And so shall your possession be cleansed, while I myself am abiding with you. For I am the Lord, who lives among the sons of Israel.”
Zato ne skvrnite zemlje u kojoj nastavate i u kojoj ja nastavam, jer ja Gospod nastavam usred sinova Izrailjevijeh.
