< Joshua 20 >

1 YHWH also spake unto Joshua, saying,
Potom reèe Gospod Isusu govoreæi:
2 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Appoint out for you cities of refuge, whereof I spake unto you by the hand of Moses:
Kaži sinovima Izrailjevijem i reci: Odredite gradove za utoèišta, za koje sam vam govorio preko Mojsija,
3 That the slayer that killeth [any] person unawares [and] unwittingly may flee thither: and they shall be your refuge from the avenger of blood.
Da onamo uteèe krvnik koji ubije koga nehotice, ne misleæi, da vam budu utoèišta od osvetnika.
4 And when he that doth flee unto one of those cities shall stand at the entering of the gate of the city, and shall declare his cause in the ears of the elders of that city, they shall take him into the city unto them, and give him a place, that he may dwell among them.
Pa kad ko uteèe u koji od tijeh gradova, neka stane pred vratima gradskim i neka kaže starješinama onoga grada stvar svoju, pa neka ga prime k sebi, i dadu mu mjesto da sjedi kod njih.
5 And if the avenger of blood pursue after him, then they shall not deliver the slayer up into his hand; because he smote his neighbour unwittingly, and hated him not beforetime.
I ako doðe za njim osvetnik, neka mu ne dadu krvnika u ruke, jer je nehotice ubio bližnjega niti je prije mrzio na nj.
6 And he shall dwell in that city, until he stand before the congregation for judgment, [and] until the death of the high priest that shall be in those days: then shall the slayer return, and come unto his own city, and unto his own house, unto the city from whence he fled.
Nego neka sjedi u gradu onom dokle ne stane pred zbor na sud, do smrti poglavara sveštenièkoga koji bude onda, tada neka se krvnik vrati i ide u svoj grad i svojoj kuæi, u grad iz kojega je utekao.
7 And they appointed Kedesh in Galilee in mount Naphtali, and Shechem in mount Ephraim, and Kirjatharba, which [is] Hebron, in the mountain of Judah. (appointed: Heb. sanctified)
I odijeliše Kedes u Galileji u gori Neftalimovoj i Sihem u gori Jefremovoj i Kirijat-Arvu, to je Hevron, u gori Judinoj.
8 And on the other side Jordan by Jericho eastward, they assigned Bezer in the wilderness upon the plain out of the tribe of Reuben, and Ramoth in Gilead out of the tribe of Gad, and Golan in Bashan out of the tribe of Manasseh.
A preko Jordana od Jerihona na istok odrediše Vosor u pustinji, u ravni, od plemena Ruvimova, i Ramot u Galadu od plemena Gadova, i Golan u Vasanu od plemena Manasijina.
9 These were the cities appointed for all the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them, that whosoever killeth [any] person at unawares might flee thither, and not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, until he stood before the congregation.
To su gradovi odreðeni svijem sinovima Izrailjevijem i došljaku koji se bavi meðu njima, da uteèe u njih ko god ubije koga nehotice i da ne pogine od ruke osvetnikove dokle ne stane pred zbor.
