Numbers 35
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan [near] Jericho, saying,
Lórí pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ Moabu ní Jordani tí ó rékọjá láti Jeriko, Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé,
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.
“Pàṣẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli láti fún àwọn Lefi ní ilẹ̀ láti gbé lára ogún tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli yóò jogún. Kí ẹ sì fún wọn ní ilẹ̀ lára pápá oko tútù, káàkiri ìlú.
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.
Nígbà náà, wọn yóò ní ìlú tí wọn yóò gbé àti ilẹ̀ pápá oko tútù fún ẹran ọ̀sìn, ọ̀wọ́ ẹran pẹ̀lú gbogbo ìní wọn.
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.
“Ilẹ̀ pápá oko tútù káàkiri ìlú tí ẹ ó fi fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi, wíwọ̀n rẹ̀ yóò jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀rún ìgbọ̀nwọ́ (1,500 ẹsẹ̀ bàtà) láti ògiri ìlú náà.
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.
Lẹ́yìn ìlú náà, wọn ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì ìgbọ̀nwọ́ lápá ibi ìhà ìlà-oòrùn, ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì ẹsẹ̀ bàtà ní ìhà gúúsù, ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì ní ìhà ìwọ̀-oòrùn àti ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì ní ìhà àríwá, kí ìlú náà sì wà ní àárín. Wọn yóò ní agbègbè yìí gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilẹ̀ pápá oko tútù fún ìlú náà.
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.
“Mẹ́fà lára ìlú tí ẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi yóò jẹ́ ìlú ààbò, tí ẹni tí ó bá pa ènìyàn yóò sá sí. Ní àfikún, ẹ fún wọn ní méjìlélógójì ìlú sí i.
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.
Ní gbogbo rẹ̀, kí ẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi ní méjìdínláàádọ́ta ìlú lápapọ̀ pẹ̀lú ilẹ̀ pápá oko tútù wọn.
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.
Ìlú tí ẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi láti ara ilẹ̀ tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli jogún, olúkúlùkù kí ó fi nínú ìlú rẹ̀ fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilẹ̀ ìní rẹ̀ tí ó ní. Gba púpọ̀ lọ́wọ́ ẹ̀yà tí ó ní púpọ̀ àti díẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ ẹ̀yà tí ó ní díẹ̀.”
9 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé,
10 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come over Jordan into the land of Canaan;
“Sọ̀rọ̀ sí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, kí o sì sọ fún wọn: ‘Nígbà tí ẹ bá rékọjá odò Jordani sí Kenaani,
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.
yan àwọn ìlú kan láti jẹ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìlú ààbò fún yín, kí apani tó pa ènìyàn ní àìmọ̀ máa sálọ síbẹ̀.
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.
Wọn yóò jẹ́ ibi ìsásí kúrò lọ́wọ́ olùgbẹ̀san, kí ẹni tí a fi ẹ̀sùn ìpànìyàn kàn má ba à kú kí ó tó dúró níwájú àwọn ìjọ àwọn ènìyàn ní ìdájọ́.
13 And of these cities which ye shall give six cities shall ye have for refuge.
Mẹ́fà nínú ìlú tí ẹ ó fi fún wọn yóò jẹ́ ìlú ààbò fún yín.
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.
Yan ìlú mẹ́ta ní ìhà ti Jordani, kí ẹ sì yan ìlú mẹ́ta ní ìhà Kenaani tí yóò máa jẹ́ ìlú ìsásí.
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.
Ìlú mẹ́fà yìí yóò jẹ́ ìlú ìsásí fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, fún àjèjì àti ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ń gbé láàrín wọn, kí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá pa ènìyàn ní àìmọ̀ sálọ síbẹ̀.
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.
“‘Bí ọkùnrin kan bá fi ohun èlò irin lu ènìyàn tí ó kú, apànìyàn ni, pípa ni a ó pa, apànìyàn náà.
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.
Tàbí tí ènìyàn bá mú òkúta tí ó lè pa ènìyàn lọ́wọ́ tí ó sì fi lu ènìyàn, tí ó sì kú, apànìyàn ni, pípa ni a ó pa apànìyàn náà.
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.
Tàbí tí ènìyàn bá mú ohun èlò igi ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀ tí ó sì lẹ̀ ẹ́ pa ènìyàn, tí ó sì fi lu ènìyàn, tí ó sì kú, apànìyàn ni; pípa ní a ó pa apànìyàn náà.
19 The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he meeteth him, he shall slay him.
Olùgbẹ̀san ẹ̀jẹ̀ yóò pa apànìyàn náà; tí ó bá bá a, yóò pa á.
20 But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die;
Tí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ń yan odì pẹ̀lú ìríra tí ẹlòmíràn tàbí ju nǹkan sí i pẹ̀lú èrò, tí ó sì kú.
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.
Tàbí pẹ̀lú ìjà gbangba lù ú pẹ̀lú ìkùùkuu tí ó sì kú, pípa ni a ó pa ẹni bẹ́ẹ̀; apànìyàn ni. Olùgbẹ̀san ẹ̀jẹ̀ yóò pa apànìyàn náà tí ó bá bá a.
22 But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait,
“‘Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó bá fi nǹkan gún un lójijì láìṣọ̀ta, tàbí tí ó sọ ohunkóhun lù ú láìmọ̀-ọ́n-mọ̀ ṣe
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:
tàbí, láìri, ju òkúta sí tí ó lè pa á, tí ó sì kú, nígbà tí kì í ṣe ọ̀tá rẹ̀, láti ṣe é léṣe.
24 Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments:
Àwọn àpéjọ gbọdọ̀ dájọ́ láàrín rẹ̀ àti olùgbẹ̀san ẹ̀jẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìlànà.
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.
Àpéjọ gbọdọ̀ dá ààbò bo ẹni tí a fi ẹ̀sùn ìpànìyàn kàn, kí a sì rán an padà lọ sí ìlú ìsásí tí ó ti wá. Ó gbọdọ̀ dúró níbẹ̀ títí di ìgbà tí olórí àlùfáà bá kú, ẹni tí a fi àmì òróró yàn.
26 But if the slayer shall at any time come without the border of the city of his refuge, whither he was fled;
“‘Ṣùgbọ́n ti ẹni tí a fi sùn kan bá jáde kọjá ààlà ìlú ìsásí tí ó sá sí.
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:
Tí olùgbẹ̀san ẹ̀jẹ̀ sì ri ní ìta ìlú náà, olùgbẹ̀san lè pa ẹni tí a fi ẹ̀sùn kàn láìjẹ̀bi ẹ̀sùn ìpànìyàn.
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.
Ẹni tí a fi ẹ̀sùn kàn gbọdọ̀ dúró nínú ìlú ìsásí títí di ìgbà tí olórí àlùfáà bá kú; lẹ́yìn ikú olórí àlùfáà, ni ó tó lè padà sí ibi tí dúkìá rẹ̀ wà.
29 So these [things] shall be for a statute of judgment unto you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
“‘Wọ̀nyí ni ó jẹ́ ìlànà ìdájọ́ fún yín ní ìran yín tó ń bọ̀, ní ibikíbi tí ẹ bá ń gbé.
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.
“‘Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá pa ènìyàn gbọdọ̀ kú gẹ́gẹ́ bí apànìyàn lórí ìjẹ́rìí àwọn ènìyàn. Ṣùgbọ́n ẹlẹ́rìí kan ṣoṣo. Kì yóò jẹ́rìí sí ẹnìkan láti pa.
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.
“‘Má ṣe gba ohun ìràpadà fún ẹ̀mí apànìyàn, tí ó jẹ̀bi kí ó kú. Ṣùgbọ́n pípa ni kí a pa á.
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.
“‘Má ṣe gba ìràsílẹ̀ fún ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá lọ sí ìlú ìsásí, pe kí ó padà máa gbé ní ilẹ̀ tirẹ̀ kí ó tó di ìgbà ikú olórí àlùfáà.
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.
“‘Má ṣe sọ ilẹ̀ tí ẹ wà di àìmọ́. Ìtàjẹ̀ sílẹ̀ sọ ilẹ̀ náà di àìmọ́. Àtúnṣe kì yóò sí fún ilẹ̀ tí a ti ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ lé lórí, àyàfi ẹ̀jẹ̀ ẹni tí ó ta á sílẹ̀.
34 Defile not therefore the land which ye shall inhabit, wherein I dwell: for I the LORD dwell among the children of Israel.
Má ṣe sọ di àìmọ́, ilẹ̀ tí ẹ ń gbé, àti èyí tí mo ń gbé, nítorí Èmi Olúwa ń gbé láàrín àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.’”
