Numbers 35
1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,
Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu na moábskih ravninah, poleg Jordana, blizu Jerihe, rekoč:
2 Command the children of Israel, that they give unto the Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to dwell in; and all of you shall give also unto the Levites suburbs for the cities round about them.
»Zapovej Izraelovim otrokom, da dajo Lévijevcem dediščino njihovih posestnih mest, da prebivajo v njih. Lévijevcem boste dali tudi predmestja za mesta okoli njih.
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.
Mesta bodo imeli, da prebivajo v njih, njihova predmestja pa bodo za njihovo živino, za njihove dobrine in za vse njihove živali.
4 And the suburbs of the cities, which all of you shall give unto the Levites, shall reach from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits round about.
Predmestja mest, ki jih boste dali Lévijevcem, bodo segala od mestnega obzidja navzven, tisoč komolcev naokoli.
5 And all of you 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.
Izmerili boste mesto od zunaj, na vzhodni strani dva tisoč komolcev, na južni strani dva tisoč komolcev, na zahodni strani dva tisoč komolcev in na severni strani dva tisoč komolcev, in mesto bo v sredi. To jim bodo predmestja mest.
6 And among the cities which all of you shall give unto the Levites there shall be six cities for refuge, which all of you shall appoint for the murderer, that he may flee thither: and to them all of you shall add forty and two cities.
Med mesti, ki jih boste dali Lévijevcem, bo tam šest mest za zatočišče, ki jih boste določili za ubijalca, da bo lahko pobegnil tja. In tem boste dodali dvainštirideset mest.
7 So all the cities which all of you shall give to the Levites shall be forty and eight cities: them shall all of you give with their suburbs.
Tako bo vseh mest, ki jih boste dali Lévijevcem, oseminštirideset mest. Te boste dali z njihovimi predmestji.
8 And the cities which all of you shall give shall be of the possession of the children of Israel: from them that have many all of you shall give many; but from them that have few all of you shall give few: every one shall give of his cities unto the Levites according to his inheritance which he inherits.
Mesta, ki jih boste dali, bodo od posesti Izraelovih otrok, od tistih, ki imajo mnogo, boste dali mnogo, toda od tistih, ki imajo malo, boste dali malo. Vsak bo od svojih mest Lévijevcem dal glede na njegovo dediščino, ki jo deduje.«
9 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
Gospod je spregovoril Mojzesu, rekoč:
10 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When all of you be come over Jordan into the land of Canaan;
»Govori Izraelovim otrokom in jim reci: ›Ko boste čez Jordan prešli v kánaansko deželo,
11 Then all of you shall appoint you cities to be cities of refuge for you; that the slayer may flee thither, which kills any person at unexpectedly.
potem si boste določili mesta, da bodo za vas zavetna mesta, da tja lahko pobegne ubijalec, ki nenamerno ubije katerokoli osebo.
12 And they shall be unto you cities for refuge from the avenger; that the murderer die not, until he stand before the congregation in judgment.
Ta vam bodo mesta za zatočišče pred maščevalcem, da ubijalec ne umre, dokler stoji pred skupnostjo v sodbi.
13 And of these cities which all of you shall give six cities shall all of you have for refuge.
Od teh mest, ki jih boste dali, boste šest mest imeli za zatočišče.
14 All of you shall give three cities on this side Jordan, and three cities shall all of you give in the land of Canaan, which shall be cities of refuge.
Dali boste tri mesta na tej strani Jordana in tri mesta v kánaanski deželi, ki bodo zavetna mesta.
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 kills any person unexpectedly may flee thither.
Teh šest mest bo zatočišče, tako za Izraelove otroke in za tujca in za začasnega prebivalca med njimi, da vsak, kdor nenamerno ubije katerokoli osebo, lahko pobegne tja.
16 And if he strike him with an instrument of iron, so that he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
Če ga udari z železno pripravo, tako da ta umre, je morilec. Morilec bo zagotovo usmrčen.
17 And if he strike him with throwing a stone, wherewith he may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
Če ga udari z metom kamna, s katerim lahko umre in ta umre, je morilec. Morilec bo zagotovo usmrčen.
18 Or if he strike 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.
Ali če ga udari z ročnim orožjem iz lesa, s katerim ta lahko umre in ta umre, je morilec. Morilec bo zagotovo usmrčen.
19 The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he meet him, he shall slay him.
Sam krvni maščevalec naj ubije morilca. Ko ga sreča, ga bo ubil.
20 But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die;
Toda če ga sune iz sovraštva ali se nanj zažene s prežanjem iz zasede, da ta umre,
21 Or in enmity strike him with his hand, that he die: he that stroke him shall surely be put to death; for he is a murderer: the revenger of blood shall slay the murderer, when he meet him.
ali ga v mržnji udari s svojo roko, da ta umre; kdor ga je udaril, bo zagotovo usmrčen, kajti morilec je. Krvni maščevalec naj morilca ubije, ko ga sreča.
22 But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait,
Toda če ga je nenadoma sunil brez mržnje ali je brez prežanja v zasedi nanj vrgel kakršnokoli stvar
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:
ali s kakršnimkoli kamnom, s katerim lahko človek umre, pa ga ni videl in ga je vrgel nanj, da umre in ni bil njegov sovražnik niti ni iskal njegove škode,
24 Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments:
potem bo glede teh sodb skupnost sodila med ubijalcem in krvnim maščevalcem
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, where he was fled: and he shall abide in it unto the death of the high priest, which was anointed with the holy oil.
in skupnost bo ubijalca osvobodila iz roke krvnega maščevalca in skupnost ga bo vrnila v mesto njegovega zatočišča, kamor je pobegnil in ta bo ostal v njem do smrti vélikega duhovnika, ki je bil maziljen s svetim oljem.
26 But if the slayer shall at any time come without the border of the city of his refuge, where he was fled;
Toda če bo ubijalec kadarkoli prišel izven meje mesta svojega zatočišča, kamor je pobegnil
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:
in ga krvni maščevalec najde zunaj meje mesta njegovega zatočišča in krvni maščevalec ubije ubijalca, ne bo kriv krvi,
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.
ker bi do smrti vélikega duhovnika moral ostati v mestu svojega zatočišča. Toda po smrti vélikega duhovnika se bo ubijalec lahko vrnil v deželo svoje posesti.
29 So these things shall be for a statute of judgment unto you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
Torej te stvari vam bodo za zakon sodbe skozi vaše rodove v vseh vaših prebivališčih.
30 Whoso kills 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.
Kdorkoli ubije katerokoli osebo, bo morilec usmrčen po ustih prič. Toda ena priča ne bo pričevala zoper katerokoli osebo, da bi ji povzročila, da ta umre.
31 Moreover all of you shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, which is guilty of death: but he shall be surely put to death.
Poleg tega ne boste sprejeli nobene odkupnine za življenje morilca, ki je kriv smrti, temveč bo ta zagotovo usmrčen.
32 And all of you 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.
Nobene odkupnine ne boste jemali za tistega, ki je pobegnil k mestu svojega zatočišča, da bi ta lahko ponovno prišel, da prebiva v deželi, do smrti duhovnika.
33 So all of you shall not pollute the land wherein all of you are: for blood it defiles the land: and the land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.
Tako ne boste oskrunili dežele, v kateri ste, kajti kri omadežuje deželo in dežela ne more biti očiščena krvi, ki je v njej prelita, razen po krvi tistega, ki jo je prelil.
34 Defile not therefore the land which all of you shall inhabit, wherein I dwell: for I the LORD dwell among the children of Israel.
Ne omadežujte torej dežele, ki jo boste poselili, v kateri prebivam, kajti jaz, Gospod, prebivam med Izraelovimi otroki.‹«
