< Numbers 35 >

1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan of Jericho, saying,
Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse nan plèn Moab yo akote Jourdain an anfas Jéricho. Li te di:
2 Command the children of Israel, that of the inheritance of their possession they give unto the Levites cities to dwell in; and a suburb for the cities round about them shall ye give unto the Levites.
Kòmande fis a Israël yo pou yo bay a Levit yo soti nan eritaj a posesyon pa yo vil pou Levit yo rete ladan. Konsa, nou va bay a Levit yo teren patiraj ki antoure vil yo.
3 And the cities shall they have to dwell in, and their suburbs shall be for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.
Vil yo va pou yo, pou yo viv ladann. Teren pa yo va pou bèf pa yo, pou twoupo pa yo ak pou tout bèt pa yo.
4 And the suburbs of the cities that ye shall give unto the Levites shall be from the walls of the city outward, a thousand cubits round about.
Teren patiraj lavil ke nou te bay a Levit yo va rive soti nan miray lavil yo, pou lonje rive jis a mil koude.
5 And ye shall measure, without the city, the east side two thousand cubits, and the south side two thousand cubits, and the west side two thousand cubits, and the north side two thousand cubits, and the city shall be in the midst: they shall have this as suburbs of the cities.
Nou va, osi, mezire deyò lavil la nan kote lès, de-mil koude, nan kote sid, de-mil koude, nan kote lwès, de-mil koude, ak nan kote nò, de-mil koude, avèk vil nan mitan li an. Sa va devni pou yo kòm teren pa yo pou vil yo.
6 And [among] the cities that ye shall give unto the Levites [shall be] the six cities of refuge, which ye shall appoint for the manslayer, that he may flee thither, — and besides them ye shall give forty-two cities:
Vil ke nou va bay a Levit yo va sis vil azil kote moun ki touye moun kapab sove ale. Anplis de sa yo, nou va bay karann-de vil.
7 all the cities that ye shall give to the Levites shall be forty-eight cities, they and their suburbs.
Tout vil ke nou va bay a Levit yo va karanntuit vil ansanm avèk teren patiraj pa yo.
8 And the cities which ye shall give shall be of the possession of the children of Israel: from them that have much ye shall take much, and from them that have little ye shall take little; each one according to his inheritance which he will inherit shall give of his cities to the Levites.
Selon vil ke nou va bay soti nan posesyon a fis Israël yo, nou va pran plis nan men pi gran yo, e nou va pran mwens nan men pi piti yo. A tout selon eritaj li ke li resevwa va bay kèk nan vil pa li yo a Levit yo.
9 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
Alò, SENYÈ a te pale avèk Moïse. Li te di:
10 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye pass over the Jordan into the land of Canaan,
“Pale avèk fis Israël yo pou di yo: ‘Lè nou fin travèse Jourdain an pou lantre nan peyi Canaran an,
11 then ye shall appoint for yourselves cities: cities of refuge shall they be for you; that a manslayer may flee thither, who without intent smiteth a person mortally.
alò, nou va apwente pou nou menm vil azil nou, pou sila ki touye moun yo, san entansyon eksprè, kapab sove ale.
12 And ye shall have these cities for refuge from the avenger; that the manslayer die not, until he have stood before the assembly in judgment.
Vil yo va pou nou yon refij kont vanjè yo, pou sila ki touye moun nan pa mouri jiskaske li ta vin kanpe devan kongregasyon an pou jije.
13 And the cities that ye shall give shall be six cities of refuge for you.
Vil ke nou bay yo va sis vil nou yo pou azil.
14 Three cities shall ye give on this side of the Jordan, and three cities shall ye give in the land of Canaan; they shall be cities of refuge.
Nou va bay twa vil lòtbò Jourdain an ak twa vil nan peyi Canaran an. Yo va sèvi kòm vil azil.
15 For the children of Israel, and for the stranger, and for the sojourner among them shall these six cities be a refuge, that one who smiteth a person mortally without intent may flee thither.
Sis vil sila yo va tankou refij pou fis Israël yo, pou etranje a ak pou sila ki demere pami yo, pou nenpòt moun ki touye yon moun san entansyon eksprè kapab sove ale pou rive la.
16 And if he have smitten him with an instrument of iron, so that he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall certainly be put to death.
“‘Men si li te frape detwi li avèk yon objè an fè, pou l ta vin mouri, li se yon asasen. Yon asasen va, anverite, vin mete a lanmò.
17 And if he have smitten him with a stone from the hand, wherewith one may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall certainly be put to death.
Si li te frape li avèk yon wòch nan men l, pou l ta vin mouri, epi li mouri, li se yon asasen. Asasen an va vrèman, vin mete a lanmò.
18 Or if he have smitten him with an instrument of wood, in the hand, wherewith one may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall certainly be put to death;
Oswa, si li te frape li avèk yon bout bwa nan men l pou li ta mouri, e li vin mouri, li se yon asasen. Asasen an va vrèman, vin mete a lanmò.
19 the avenger of blood, he shall put the murderer to death; when he meeteth him, he shall put him to death.
Vanjè san an va, li menm, mete asasen an a lanmò. Li va mete li a lanmò depi li rankontre li.
20 And if he thrust at him out of hatred, or hurl at him intentionally, so that he die,
Si li t ap pouse li akoz rayisman, oswa jete yon bagay sou li lè li kouche pou fè pèlen, e kòm rezilta, li te vin mouri,
21 or from enmity smite him with his hand, so that he die, he that smote him shall certainly be put to death; he is a murderer: the avenger of blood shall put the murderer to death, when he meeteth him. —
oswa, si li te frape li avèk men l an rayisman, e li vin mouri, sila ki te frape li a va, vrèman, vin mete a lanmò. Li se yon asasen. Vanjè san an va mete asasen an a lanmò lè li rankontre li.
22 But if he have thrust at him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him anything unintentionally,
“‘Men si li vin pouse li sibitman san rayisman, oswa li te jete yon bagay sou li san entansyon,
23 or [have smitten him] with any stone wherewith one may die, without seeing him, and have cast it upon him so that he die, and he was not his enemy, neither sought his harm:
oswa, avèk nenpòt objè mòtèl an wòch, men san wè, li vin tonbe sou li e li vin mouri, pandan li pa t lènmi li, ni li pa t ap chache pou fè li mal,
24 then the assembly shall judge between the smiter and the avenger of blood according to these judgments;
alò, kongregasyon an va jije antre moun ki touye moun nan avèk vanjè san an, selon òdonans sa yo.
25 and the assembly shall rescue the manslayer out of the hand of the avenger of blood, and the assembly shall restore him to the city of his refuge, whither he had fled; and he shall abide in it until the death of the high-priest, who was anointed with the holy oil.
Kongregasyon an dwe pwoteje moun ki touye moun nan de men a vanjè san an, e kongregasyon an va voye li retounen nan vil azil kote li te sove ale a. Epi konsa, li va viv ladann jiskaske lanmò wo prèt ki te onksyone avèk lwil sen an.
26 But if the manslayer shall in any way come outside the limits of the city of his refuge whither he hath fled,
“‘Men si moun ki touye moun nan sòti pi lwen ke lizyè pwòp vil azil pa li a, kote li te gen dwa sove ale a,
27 and the avenger of blood find him outside the limits of his city of refuge, and the avenger of blood kill the manslayer, there shall be no blood-guiltiness upon him;
epi vanjè san an vin jwenn li deyò lizyè vil azil li a; epi vanjè san an touye moun ki te touye moun nan, li p ap koupab de san an,
28 for the manslayer should have remained in the city of his refuge until the death of the high-priest; but after the death of the high-priest he may return into the land of his possession.
akoz li te dwe rete nan vil azil pa li a jiskaske wo prèt la vin mouri. Men apre lanmò wo prèt la, moun ki te touye moun nan va retounen vè peyi posesyon pa li a.
29 And this shall be unto you a statute of right throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
“‘Bagay sa yo va yon òdonans lalwa pou tout jenerasyon nou yo nan tout abitasyon nou yo.
30 Whoever shall smite a person mortally, at the mouth of witnesses shall the murderer be put to death; but one witness shall not testify against a person to cause him to die.
“‘Si, yon moun touye yon moun, asasen an va vin mete a lanmò sou temwayaj temwen yo, men pèsòn pa pou mete a lanmò sou temwayaj a yon sèl temwen.
31 And ye shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, who is guilty of death, but he shall certainly be put to death.
“‘Anplis, nou pa pou pran ranson pou lavi a yon asasen ki koupab jiska lanmò. Li va, vrèman, vin mete a lanmò.
32 And ye shall take no satisfaction for him that hath fled to the city of his refuge, that he should come again to dwell in the land, until the death of the priest.
Nou pa pou pran ranson pou sila ki te sove ale nan vil azil la, pou l kab retounen viv nan peyi a avan lanmò a wo prèt la.
33 And ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are; for blood, it polluteth the land; and there can be no atonement made for the land, for the blood that hath been shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.
“‘Alò, nou pa pou kontamine peyi kote nou rete a; paske san an va kontamine peyi a e nanpwen ekspiyasyon pou peyi pou san ki koule ladann, sof pa san a sila ki te fè vèse san an.
34 And ye shall not defile the land that ye inhabit, in the midst whereof I dwell; for I am Jehovah who dwell in the midst of the children of Israel.
Nou pa pou konwonpi peyi kote nou rete a, kote Mwen menm rete a. Paske Mwen, SENYÈ a, Mwen ap viv pami fis Israël yo.’”
