Deuteronomy 19
1 When the Lord thy God hath destroyed the nations, whose land he will deliver to thee, and thou shalt possess it, and shalt dwell in the cities and houses thereof:
Inton ikkaten ni Yahweh a Diosyo dagiti nasion, dagiti daga nga it-ited ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo, ken inton sublatanyo ida ket agnaedkayo kadagiti siudadda ken babbalayda,
2 Thou shalt separate to thee three cities in the midst of the land, which the Lord will give thee in possession,
masapul a mangpilikayo iti tallo a siudad a para kadakayo iti tengnga ti dagayo nga it-ited ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo a tagikuaenyo.
3 Paving diligently the way: and thou shalt divide the whole province of thy land equally into three parts: that he who is forced to flee for manslaughter, may have near at hand whither to escape.
Masapul a mangaramidkayo iti dalan ken bingayenyo dagiti beddeng dagiti dagayo iti tallo a paset, ti daga nga ipatpatawid ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo, tapno mabalin nga agkamang sadiay ti siasinoman a makapatay iti sabali a tao.
4 This shall be the law of the slayer that fleeth, whose life is to be saved: He that killeth his neighbour ignorantly, and who is proved to have had no hatred against him yesterday and the day before:
Daytoy ti linteg para iti tao a makapatay iti sabali ken agkamang sadiay tapno agbiag: siasinoman ti makapatay iti kaarrubana a saanna nga ingagara, ken saanna a ginura isuna iti napalabas—
5 But to have gone with him to the wood to hew wood, and in cutting down the tree the axe slipped out of his hand, and the iron slipping from the handle struck his friend, and killed him: he shall flee to one of the cities aforesaid, and live:
kas iti maysa a tao a mapan idiay bakir a kaduana ti kaarrubana tapno agpukan iti kayo, ket inlayat ti imana ti wasay tapno pukanenna ti kayo, ket nauksot ti ulo ti wasay manipud iti putanna ken natamaan ti kaarrubana isu a natay isuna—masapul ngarud nga agkamang dayta a tao iti maysa kadagitoy a siudad ket agbiag.
6 Lest perhaps the next kinsman of him whose blood was shed, pushed on by his grief should pursue, and apprehend him. if the way be too long, and take away the life of him who is not guilty of death, because he is proved to have had no hatred before against him that was slain.
Ta no saan, amangan no kamaten ti mangibales iti dara ti tao a nakapatay, ket iti bara ti ungetna makamakamna isuna gapu ta atiddog daytoy a panagdaliasat. Ket kabilen ken papatayenna isuna, uray no saan a maikari a matay dayta a tao; ket saan pay a maikari isuna iti pannakapapatay agsipud ta saanna met a kinagura ti kaarrubana sakbay a napasamak daytoy.
7 Therefore I command thee, that thou separate three cities at equal distance one from another.
Ngarud, bilinenkayo a mangpilikayo iti tallo a siudad para kadakayo.
8 And when the Lord thy God shall have enlarged thy borders, as he swore to thy fathers, and shall give thee all the land that he promised them,
No palawaen ni Yahweh a Diosyo dagiti beddengyo, kas insapatana kadagiti kapuonanyo nga aramidenna, ken itedna kadakayo dagiti amin a daga nga inkarina nga itedna kadagiti kapuonanyo;
9 (Yet so, if thou keep his commandments, and do the things which I command thee this day, that thou love the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways at all times) thou shalt add to thee other three cities, and shalt double the number of the three cities aforesaid:
no salimetmetanyo amin dagitoy a bilbilin tapno aramiden dagitoy, nga ibilbilinko kadakayo ita nga aldaw—dagiti bilbilin tapno ayaten ni Yahweh a Diosyo ken tapno kankanayon a magna kadagiti dalanna, masapul ngarud nga agnayonkayo iti tallo pay a siudad para kadakayo, malaksid kadagitoy a tallo.
10 That innocent blood may not be shed in the midst of the land which the Lord thy God will give thee to possess, lest thou be guilty of blood.
Aramidenyo daytoy tapno saan nga agsayasay ti dara nga awan basolna iti tengnga ti daga nga it-ited ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo a kas pannakatawidyo, tapno awan pakabasolanyo iti panagpapatay.
11 But if any man hating his neighbour, lie in wait for his life, and rise and strike him, and he die, and he flee to one of the cities aforesaid,
Ngem no kagura ti siasinoman ti kaarrubana, padpadaananna isuna, tumakder a maibusor kenkuana, ket sinugatanna isuna iti nakaro nga isu ti nakatayanna, ket no agkamang isuna iti maysa kadagitoy a siudad—
12 The ancients of his city shall send, and take him out of the place of refuge, and shall deliver him into the hand of the kinsman of him whose blood was shed, and he shall die.
masapul ngarud a mangibaon dagiti panglakayen iti siudadna ken isublida isuna manipud sadiay, ket iyawatda isuna iti ima dagiti kabagian nga akinrebbeng, tapno matay isuna.
13 Thou shalt not pity him, and thou shalt take away the guilt of innocent blood out of Israel, that it may be well with thee.
Masapul a saan a maasi dagiti matayo kenkuana; ngem ketdi, masapul nga ikkatenyo ti basol iti panagpatay manipud Israel, tapno sumayaatkayonto.
14 Thou shalt not take nor remove thy neighbour’s landmark, which thy predecessors have set in thy possession. which the Lord thy God will give thee in the land that thou shalt receive to possess.
Masapul a saanyo nga ikkaten ti mohon ti kaarrubayo nga inkabilda iti nabayagen a panawen, iti tawid a tawidenyonto, iti daga nga it-ited ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo a tagikuaenyo.
15 One witness shall not rise up against any man, whatsoever the sin or wickedness be: but in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall stand.
Masapul a saan a tumakder ti maymaysa a saksi a maibusor iti maysa a tao gapu iti aniaman a kinadakes, wenno gapu iti aniaman a basol, iti aniaman a banag a nagbasolanna; manipud iti ngiwat iti dua a saksi, wenno manipud iti ngiwat iti tallo a saksi, masapul a mapatalgedan ti aniaman a banag.
16 If a lying witness stand against a man, accusing him of transgression,
No bilang ta tumakder ti saan a nalinteg a saksi a maibusor iti siasinoman tapno mangpaneknek iti maibusor kenkuana iti panagaramidna iti dakes,
17 Both of them, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before the Lord in the sight of the priests and the judges that shall be in those days.
Ket ti dua a tattao a nagtaudan daytoy a riri, masapul a tumakder iti sangoanan ni Yahweh, iti sangoanan dagiti papadi ken dagiti uk-ukom nga agserserbi kadagitoy nga al-aldaw.
18 And when after most diligent inquisition, they shall find that the false witness hath told a lie against his brother:
Masapul a sukimaten a nasayaat dagiti ukom; kitaenyo, no ulbod ti saksi ket siuulbod a nangpaneknek maibusor iti kabsatna,
19 They shall render to him as he meant to do to his brother, and thou shalt take away the evil out of the midst of thee:
masapul ngarud nga aramidenyo kenkuana, a kas iti tinarigagayanna nga aramiden iti kabsatna; ket ikkatenyonto ti kinadakes manipud kadakayo.
20 That others hearing may fear, and may not dare to do such things.
Ket mangngeg ken agbutengto dagiti nabati, ket manipud iti dayta a tiempo, saandanton nga agaramid kadagiti kasta a kinadakes kadakayo.
21 Thou shalt not pity him, but shalt require life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
Masapul a saan a maasi dagiti matayo; biagto ti mangbayad iti biag, mata para iti mata, ngipen para iti ngipen, ima para iti ima, ken saka para iti saka.
