Numbers 35
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan, [near] Jericho, saying,
Hahoi Jeriko teng Jordan palang teng vah Moab tanghling dawk BAWIPA ni Mosi hah a pato.
2 “Command the sons of Israel, and they have given to the Levites cities to inhabit from the inheritance of their possession; you also give [the] outskirt around them, of the cities, to the Levites.
Isarel canaw hah kâpoe leih. A ram thung dawk Levihnaw o nahanlah kho poe awh naseh. Saring a pâ nahanlah kho tengpam hah Levihnaw na poe awh han.
3 And the cities have been for them to inhabit, and their outskirts are for their livestock, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.
Kho a saknae kho tawn awh vaiteh, a tengpam pueng teh a maito hoi saringnaw a paca awh e a pâ nahanlah awm naseh.
4 And the outskirts of the cities which you give to the Levites [are], from the wall of the city and outside, one thousand cubits around.
Kho tengpam Levihnaw na poe awh hane teh, kho rapan petkâkalup lah dong 1000 touh akaw han.
5 And you have measured from the outside of the city: the east quarter—two thousand by the cubit, and the south quarter—two thousand by the cubit, and the west quarter—two thousand by the cubit, and the north quarter—two thousand by the cubit; and the city [is] in the midst; this is the outskirts of the cities to them.
Hahoi tumdumnae alawilah hoi na bangnue awh vaiteh, kanîtholah dong 2000, akalah dong 2000, kanîloumlah dong 2000, atunglah dong 2000, alungui kho ao han. Hetnaw heh a ham awh e khopuinaw rapan alawilah han.
6 And the cities which you give to the Levites [are] the six cities of refuge, which you give for the fleeing there of the manslayer, and besides them you give forty-two cities;
Levihnaw na poe awh hane khonaw thung dawkvah, tamikathetnaw a yawng nahane taruk touh na rawi awh han. Hothloilah kho 42 touh na thapsin han.
7 all the cities which you give to the Levites [are] forty-eight cities, them and their outskirts.
Levihnaw na poe hane khonaw pueng teh, a ram hoi kho 48 touh a pha han.
8 And the cities which you give [are] from the possession of the sons of Israel; from the many you multiply, and from the few you diminish; each, according to his inheritance which they inherit, gives to the Levites from his cities.”
Isarelnaw khosak nahan na poe e teh, kapap hah kapap na poe vaiteh, kayoun hah kayoun na poe han. Tami pueng ni a coe awh e ram apap e patetlah Levihnaw kho na poe awh han.
9 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
BAWIPA ni Mosi hah a pato teh,
10 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: When you are passing over the Jordan to the land of Canaan,
Isarel canaw hah pato nateh, ahnimouh koe Jordan na raka awh teh, Kanaan ram na kâen toteh,
11 and have prepared cities for yourselves—they are cities of refuge to you—then a manslayer, striking a person through ignorance, has fled there,
pouk laipalah tamikathet payon e teh a yawng vaiteh a kângue nahane kho na pouk pouh han.
12 and the cities have been for a refuge to you from the redeemer, and the manslayer does not die until his standing before the congregation for judgment.
Tamimaya hmalah lawkceng hanlah a kangdue hoehnahlan, tamikathet payon e teh, ama a due hoeh nahanelah, hote khonaw teh moipathungkung ni a tawng navah a kângue awh nahanelah ao han.
13 As for the cities which you give, six [are] cities of refuge to you;
Hottelah, nangmouh hanlah kângue nahane kho na pouk awh hane teh kho 6 touh a pha han.
14 three of the cities you give from beyond the Jordan, and three of the cities you give in the land of Canaan; they are cities of refuge.
Jordan namran lah kho kathum touh na pouk awh vaiteh, Kanaan ram lah kho kathum touh na pouk awh han. Kânguenae kho lah ao han.
15 For sons of Israel, and for a sojourner, and for a settler in their midst, are these six cities for a refuge, for the fleeing there of anyone striking a person through ignorance.
Isarel catounnaw hoi ahnimouh koe kaawm e imyinnaw hanlah kho 6 touh hah kânguenae kho lah ao han. Awi hawvah, tamikathet payonnaw ni a yawng awh han.
16 And if he has struck him with an instrument of iron, and he dies, he [is] a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.
Hatei, sum hoi tami hem boilah dout pawiteh, tamikathet e lah ao dawkvah, tamikathet e teh ama hai roup thei roeroe han.
17 And if he has struck him with a stone [in] the hand, with which he could die, and he dies, he [is] a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.
Hahoi talung hoi tami kadout lah dei pawiteh, ayâ ka thet e lah ao dawkvah, ayâ ka thet e teh ama hai thei roeroe han.
18 Or [if] he has struck him with a wooden instrument [in] the hand, with which he could die, and he dies, he [is] a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.
Hahoi tami ni thing hoi tami kadout lah hem pawiteh, ayâ ka thet e lah ao dawkvah, ayâ ka thet e teh ama hai thei roeroe han.
19 The redeemer of blood puts the murderer to death himself; in his coming against him he puts him to death.
Thiphu moipathungkung ni tami ka thet e teh tang a thei thai han. A hmu boum teh a thei han.
20 And if he pushes him in hatred, or has cast [anything] at him by lying in wait, and he dies,
Hahoi tami a hmuhma kecu dawk puenghoi dei tanawt nakunghai thoseh, sut pawp laihoi kadout lah a dêi nakunghai thoseh,
21 or he has struck him with his hand in enmity, and he dies, the striker is certainly put to death; he [is] a murderer; the redeemer of blood puts the murderer to death in his coming against him.
kâoun hoi kut hoi thaw lah koe dout pawiteh, kathetkung hah thei van hane roeroe lah ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, tamikathetkung doeh. Thipaling moipathungkung ni a hmu nah tangkuem koe a thei han.
22 And if, in an instant, without enmity, he has pushed him, or has cast any instrument at him without lying in wait,
Hatei, kâoun kâtai dawk laipalah, a tanawt payon dawk nakunghai thoseh, lam hoi a pawp dawk tho laipalah, tami awm hoeh ti hoi a panue hoehnahlan vah, taran lah hai kaawm hoeh e,
23 or with any stone with which he could die, without seeing, indeed, causes [it] to fall on him, and he dies, and he [is] not his enemy, nor seeking his evil,
pataw nahan poe hanlah hai kâcai hoeh eiteh, talung hoi koe dêi lah dout payon pawiteh,
24 then the congregation has judged between the striker and the redeemer of blood by these judgments.
tamimaya ni hete lawkcengnae kâlawk patetlah kathetkung hoi thipaling moipathungkung hanlah lawk a ceng awh han.
25 And the congregation has delivered the manslayer out of the hand of the redeemer of blood, and the congregation has caused him to return to the city of his refuge, to where he has fled, and he has dwelt in it until the death of the chief priest who has been anointed with the holy oil.
Hahoi tamimaya ni tamikathetkung hah thipaling moipathungkung koehoi a la ring awh vaiteh, tamimaya ni a yawng nahane kânguenae kho dawk ao sak awh han. Satui kathoung hoi awi e vaihma kacue ka tawk lahun e a due hoehroukrak haw vah ao han.
26 And if the manslayer indeed goes out [from] the border of the city of his refuge to where he flees,
Hatei, bangpatet e tueng pueng dawk hai tami ka thet e teh, a yawngnae kânguenae kho, khori hloilah cet pawiteh,
27 and the redeemer of blood has found him at the outside of the border of the city of his refuge, and the redeemer of blood has slain the manslayer, blood [is] not [reckoned] to him;
thipaling moipathungkung ni kânguenae kho hloilah hmawt boilah thet pawiteh, thipaling dawk yonpennae awm mahoeh.
28 for he dwells in the city of his refuge until the death of the chief priest; and after the death of the chief priest the manslayer turns back to the city of his possession.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, vaihma kacue a due hoehroukrak, kânguenae kho dawk pou o hanlah ao. Vaihma a due hnukkhu, hote tami ka thet e teh ama onae kho dawk a ban han.
29 And these things have been for a statute of judgment to you throughout your generations, in all your dwellings.
Hatei, hnonaw pueng hah na catounnaw totouh na o awh nah tangkuem koe lawkceng e lah ao han.
30 Whoever strikes a person, by the mouth of witnesses [one] slays the murderer; and one witness does not testify against a person to cause [him] to die.
Tami bangpatet ni nakunghai tami thet pawiteh, tamikathetkung teh kapanuekkhaikung e pahni dawk lawk a tâco sak e lawk lahoi thei lah ao han. Hatei, kapanuekkhaikung buet touh dueng e a pahni dawk e lawk pawiteh, thei khai nahanelah khout hoeh.
31 And you take no atonement for the life of a murderer who [is] condemned to die, for he is certainly put to death;
Tami kathetkung teh na ratang awh mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, due han kamcu totouh yonpen e lah ao toung dawkvah, na thei awh roeroe han.
32 and you take no atonement for him [who had] to flee to the city of his refuge, to return to dwell in the land, until the death of the priest.
Kânguenae kho dawk ka yawng e tami teh, hatnae tueng dawk vaihma kacue ka tawk e a due hoehroukrak a onae khoruem dawk bout ban thai nahan, ratang thai mahoeh.
33 And you do not profane the land which you [are] in, for blood profanes the land; as for the land, it is not pardoned for blood which is shed in it except by the blood of him who sheds it;
Hatdawkvah, na onae ram na khin sak mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, thipaling ni ram hah a khin sak teh, ram a dam nahanlah, thipalawngkung e thipaling hoi dueng doeh yontha thai lah ao.
34 and you do not defile the land in which you are dwelling, in the midst of which I dwell, for I, YHWH, dwell in the midst of the sons of Israel.”
Hatdawkvah, a lungui e khosaknae na coe awh e ram teh, na khinsak awh mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai Jehovah teh Isarel catounnaw koe ka o tet pouh telah ati.
