< Numbers 35 >
1 And YHWH spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,
ヱリコに對するヨルダンの邊なるモアブの平野においてヱホバ、モーセに告て言たまはく
2 Command the children of Israel, that they give unto the Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to dwell in; and ye shall give also unto the Levites suburbs for the cities round about them.
イスラエルの子孫に命じてその獲たる產業の中よりレビ人に住べき邑々を與へしめよ汝らまたその邑々の周圍に郊地をつけてレビ人に與ふべし
3 And the cities shall they have to dwell in; and the suburbs of them shall be for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.
その邑々は彼らの住べき所その郊地は彼らの家畜貨財および諸の獣をおくところたるべし
4 And the suburbs of the cities, which ye shall give unto the Levites, shall reach from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits round about.
汝らがレビ人に與ふる邑々の郊地は邑の石垣より外四周一千キユビトなるべし
5 And ye shall measure from without the city on the east side two thousand cubits, and on the south side two thousand cubits, and on the west side two thousand cubits, and on the north side two thousand cubits and the city shall be in the midst: this shall be to them the suburbs of the cities.
すなはち邑の外に於て東の方に二千キユビト南の方に二千キユビト西の方に二千キユビト北の方に二千キユビトを量り邑をその中にあらしむべし彼らの邑の郊地は是のごとくなるべし
6 And among the cities which ye shall give unto the Levites there shall be six cities for refuge, which ye shall appoint for the manslayer, that he may flee thither: and to them ye shall add forty and two cities.
汝らがレビ人に與ふる邑々は是のごとくなるべし即ち逃遁邑六を與ふべし是は人を殺せる者の其處に逃るべきための者なり此外にまた邑四十二を與ふべし
7 So all the cities which ye shall give to the Levites shall be forty and eight cities: them shall ye give with their suburbs.
汝らがレビ人に與ふる邑は都合四十八邑これを其郊地とともに與ふべし
8 And the cities which ye shall give shall be of the possession of the children of Israel: from them that have many ye shall give many; but from them that have few ye shall give few: every one shall give of his cities unto the Levites according to his inheritance which he inheriteth.
汝らイスラエルの子孫の產業の中よりレビ人に邑を與ふるには多く有る者は多く與へ少く有る者は少く與へ各人その獲たる產業にしたがひてその邑々を之に與ふべし
9 And YHWH spake unto Moses, saying,
ヱホバまたモーセに告て言たまはく
10 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come over Jordan into the land of Canaan;
イスラエルの子孫に告てこれに言へ汝らヨルダンを濟りてカナンの地に入ば
11 Then ye shall appoint you cities to be cities of refuge for you; that the slayer may flee thither, which killeth any person at unawares.
汝らのために邑を設けて逃遁邑と爲し誤りて人を殺せる者をして其處に逃るべからしむべし
12 And they shall be unto you cities for refuge from the avenger; that the manslayer die not, until he stand before the congregation in judgment.
其は汝らが仇打する者を避て逃るべき邑なり是あるは人を殺せる者が未だ會衆の前にたちて審判をうけざる先に殺さるること無らんためなり
13 And of these cities which ye shall give six cities shall ye have for refuge.
汝らが予ふる邑々の中六をもて逃遁邑とすべし
14 Ye shall give three cities on this side Jordan, and three cities shall ye give in the land of Canaan, which shall be cities of refuge.
すなはち汝らヨルダンの此旁において三の邑を予ヘカーナンの地において三の邑を予へて逃遁邑となすべし
15 These six cities shall be a refuge, both for the children of Israel, and for the stranger, and for the sojourner among them: that every one that killeth any person unawares may flee thither.
この六の邑はイスラエルの子孫と他國人およびその中に寄寓る者の逃遁場たるべし凡て誤りて人を殺せる者は其處に逃るることを得べし
16 And if he smite him with an instrument of iron, so that he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
もし鐵の器をもて人を撃て死しめなば是故殺なり故殺人はかならず殺さるべし
17 And if he smite him with throwing a stone, wherewith he may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
もし人を殺すほどの石を執て人を撃て死しめなば是故殺なり故殺人はかならず殺さるべし
18 Or if he smite him with an hand weapon of wood, wherewith he may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
また人を殺すほどの木の器をとりて人を撃て死しめなば是故殺なり故殺人はかならず殺さるべし
19 The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he meeteth him, he shall slay him.
仇を打つ者その故殺人を殺すことを得すなはち之に遭ふところにて之を殺すことを得るなり
20 But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die;
もしまた怨恨のために人を推しまたは意ありて人に物を投うちて死しめ
21 Or in enmity smite him with his hand, that he die: he that smote him shall surely be put to death; for he is a murderer: the revenger of blood shall slay the murderer, when he meeteth him.
または敵の心を挾さみ手をもて人を撃て死しめなばその人を撃たる者は必ず殺さるべし是故殺なればなり仇を打つ者これに遭ふところにて之を殺すことを得べし
22 But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait,
然どもし敵の心なくして思はず人を推しまたは意なくして人に物を擲ち
23 Or with any stone, wherewith a man may die, seeing him not, and cast it upon him, that he die, and was not his enemy, neither sought his harm:
または人あるを見ずして人を殺すほどの石を之に投つけて死しむること有んにその人これが敵にもあらずまた之を害せんとせしにもあらざる時は
24 Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments:
會衆この律法によりてその人を殺せる者と仇打する者とに審判を言わたすべし
25 And the congregation shall deliver the slayer out of the hand of the revenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore him to the city of his refuge, whither he was fled: and he shall abide in it unto the death of the high priest, which was anointed with the holy oil.
即ち會衆はその人を殺せる者を仇打する者の手より救ひ出してこれをその逃れゆきたる逃遁邑に還すべしその者は聖膏を灌れたる祭司の長の死るまで其處に居べし
26 But if the slayer shall at any time come without the border of the city of his refuge, whither he was fled;
然ど人を殺しし者その逃れし逃遁邑の境を出でたらんに
27 And the revenger of blood find him without the borders of the city of his refuge, and the revenger of blood kill the slayer; he shall not be guilty of blood:
仇打する者その逃遁邑の境の外にてこれに遭ことありて仇打する者すなはちその人を殺しし者を殺すことあるとも血をながせる罪あらじ
28 Because he should have remained in the city of his refuge until the death of the high priest: but after the death of the high priest the slayer shall return into the land of his possession.
其は彼は祭司の長の死るまでその逃遁邑に居べき者なればなり祭司の長の死たる後はその人を殺せし者おのれの產業の地にかへることを得べし
29 So these things shall be for a statute of judgment unto you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
汝ら代々その住所において之を審判の法度とすべし
30 Whoso killeth any person, the murderer shall be put to death by the mouth of witnesses: but one witness shall not testify against any person to cause him to die.
凡て人を殺せる者すなはち故殺人は證人の口にしたがひて殺さるべし然ど只一人の證人の言にしたがひて人を殺すことを爲べからず
31 Moreover ye shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, which is guilty of death: but he shall be surely put to death.
汝ら死に當る故殺人の生命を贖はしむべからず必ずこれを殺すべし
32 And ye shall take no satisfaction for him that is fled to the city of his refuge, that he should come again to dwell in the land, until the death of the priest.
また逃遁邑に逃れたる者の贖を容て祭司の死ざる前にこれを自己の地に歸り住しむる勿れ
33 So ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are: for blood it defileth the land: and the land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.
汝らその居ところの地を汚すべからず血は地を汚すなり地の上に流せる血は之を流せる者の血をもてするに非れば贖ふことを得ざるなり
34 Defile not therefore the land which ye shall inhabit, wherein I dwell: for I YHWH dwell among the children of Israel.
汝らその住ところの地すなはち我が居ところの地を汚すなかれ其は我ヱホバ、イスラエルの子孫の中に居ばなり
