Numbers 35
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan, [near] Jericho, saying,
परमप्रभु यरीहोमा यर्दन नजिकको मोआबको मैदानमा मोशासँग बोल्नुभयो,
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.
“इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूका आ-आफ्नो भूमिको हिस्साबाट लेवीहरूलाई केही दिन आज्ञा दे । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई बस्नको निम्ति सहरहरू र त्यसको वरिपरि खर्क दिनुपर्छ ।
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.
लेवीहरूले बस्नलाई यी सहरहरू पाउने छन् । तिनीहरूका गाईवस्तुहरू, भेडा-बाख्राहरू र तिनीहरूका सबै जनावरका निम्ति खर्क हुने छ ।
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.
तिमीहरूले लेवीहरूलाई दिने सहर वरिपरिका खर्कहरू सहरका पर्खालहरूदेखि बाहिर वरिपरि सबैतिर एक-एक हजार हातसम्म फैलिएको हुने छ ।
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.
तिमीहरूले सहरको बाहिरबाट पूर्वपट्टि दुई हजार हात, दक्षिणपट्टि दुई हजार हात, पश्चिमपट्टि दुई हजार हात र उत्तरपट्टि दुई हजार हात नाप्नुपर्छ । यो तिनीहरूका निम्ति खर्कहरू हुने छ । सहरचाहिँ बिचमा हुने छ ।
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;
तिमीहरूले लेवीहरूलाई दिने सहरहरूमध्ये छ वटाले शरण-नगरहरूको काम गर्नुपर्छ । तिमीहरूले दिएका यी ठाउँहरूले कुनै मानिसलाई मार्ने व्यक्ति भाग्न सक्ने ठाउँ हुनुपर्छ । बयालिसवटा सहर पनि दिनू ।
7 all the cities which you give to the Levites [are] forty-eight cities, them and their outskirts.
तिमीहरूले लेवीहरूलाई दिने सहरहरू जम्मा अठचालिसवटा हुने छ । तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका खर्कहरूसहित दिनुपर्छ ।
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.”
इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको ठुलो कुलसँग धैरै भूमि हुने भएकोले धेरै सहरहरू दिनुपर्छ । साना कुलहरूले कम सहरहरू दिनुपर्छ । हरेक कुलले आफूले प्राप्त गरेको हिस्साअनुसार लेवीहरूको निम्ति दिनुपर्छ ।
9 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
त्यसपछि परमप्रभु मोशासँग बोल्नुभयो,
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,
“इस्राएलका मानिसहरूसँग कुरा गर् र तिनीहरूलाई भन्, 'जब तिमीहरू यर्दन तरेर कनानको भूमिमा प्रवेश गर्छौ,
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,
तिमीहरूले तिमीहरूको निम्ति शरण-नगरको काम गर्ने सहरहरू चुन्नुपर्छ, जसमा कसैलाई अजानमा मारेको व्यक्ति त्यो ठाउँमा भागेर जान सक्छ ।
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.
यी सहरहरू बदला लिने व्यक्तिबाट बाँच्ने तिमीहरूको शरण-नगर हुनुपर्छ, ताकि दोष लगाइएको व्यक्ति समुदायको सामु न्यायको लागि खडा हुनअगि नमारियोस् ।
13 As for the cities which you give, six [are] cities of refuge to you;
तिमीहरूले छवटा सहरलाई शरण-नगरको रूपमा छान्नुपर्छ ।
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.
तिमीहरूले यर्दनपारि तिनवटा सहर र कनानको भूमिमा तिनवटा सहर दिनुपर्छ । ती शरण-नगर हुने छन् ।
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.
यी छवटा सहरले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका निम्ति, परदेशीहरूका निम्ति र तिमीहरूमाझ बसोबास गर्ने जो कोहीको निम्ति एउटा शरणको काम गर्नेछ, जसमा कसैलाई अजानमा मार्ने व्यक्ति भागेर जान सक्छ ।
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.
तर यदि दोष लगाइएको मानिसले पीडितलाई फलामको हतियारले प्रहार गरेको छ भने, र यदि त्यसले आक्रमण गरेको व्यक्ति मर्यो भने, दोष लगाइएको व्यक्ति हत्यारा नै हो । त्यसलाई मार्नुपर्छ ।
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.
यदि दोष लगाइएको मानिसले कसैलाई आफ्नो हातमा भएको ढुङ्गाले कसैलाई मर्ने गरी प्रहार गरेको छ भने, र यदि त्यो व्यक्ति मर्यो भने, त्यो दोष लगाइएको व्यक्ति हत्यारा नै हो । त्यसलाई मार्नुपर्छ ।
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.
यदि दोष लगाइएको व्यक्तिले कसैलाई काठको हतियारले प्रहार गरेको छ भने, र यदि त्यो व्यक्ति मर्यो भने, दोष लगाइएको व्यक्ति हत्यारा नै हो । त्यसलाई मार्नुपर्छ ।
19 The redeemer of blood puts the murderer to death himself; in his coming against him he puts him to death.
रगतको बदला लिने व्यक्तिले हत्यारालाई मार्न सक्छ । त्यसले त्यसलाई भेट्दा, रगतको बदला लिने व्यक्तिले त्यसलाई मार्नुपर्छ ।
20 And if he pushes him in hatred, or has cast [anything] at him by lying in wait, and he dies,
यदि त्यसले ढुकेर बसी कसैलाई प्रहार गर्छ वा घृणा गरेर केही कुराले आक्रमण गर्छ भने र आक्रमण गरिएको व्यक्ति मर्छ भने,
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.
वा यदि त्यसले घृणा गरेको व्यक्तिलाई आफ्नै हातले प्रहार गर्छ अनि त्यो आक्रमणमा परेको व्यक्ति मर्छ भने, त्यसलाई प्रहार गरेको दोष लगाइएको व्यक्तिलाई मार्नुपर्छ । त्यो हत्यारा हो । रगतको बदला लिने व्यक्तिले त्यसलाई भेट्दा मार्न सक्छ ।
22 And if, in an instant, without enmity, he has pushed him, or has cast any instrument at him without lying in wait,
तर यदि दोष लगाइएको व्यक्तिले पूर्वघृणाविना अचानक कुनै कुरा फ्याँक्दा ढुकेर नबसी नै आक्रमणमा परेको व्यक्तिलाई लाग्यो भने,
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,
वा यदि त्यसले आक्रमणमा परेका व्यक्तिलाई नदेखी ढुङ्गा फ्याँक्दा लाग्छ र मर्छ, अनि आक्रमणमा परेको व्यक्ति दोष लगाइएको व्यक्तिको शत्रु होइन भने; त्यसले त्यसलाई चोट पुर्याउन खोजिरहेको थिएन । तर आक्रमणमा परेको व्यक्ति मर्छ भने यसो गर्नुपर्छ ।
24 then the congregation has judged between the striker and the redeemer of blood by these judgments.
त्यस अवस्थामा समुदायले दोष लगाइएको व्यक्ति र रगतको बदला लिनेबिच यी नियमहरूको आधारमा न्याय गर्नुपर्छ ।
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.
समुदायले दोष लगाइएको व्यक्तिलाई रगतको बदला लिने व्यक्तिको शक्तिबाट छुटकारा दिनुपर्छ । समुदायले त्यो दोष लगाइएको व्यक्ति पहिले भागेर गएको शरण-नगरमा नै त्यसलाई फर्काउनुपर्छ । त्यो त्यस बेलाको प्रधान पुजारीको मृत्यु नभएसम्म त्यहीँ नै बस्नुपर्छ, जसलाई पवित्र तेलले अभिषेक गरिएको थियो ।
26 And if the manslayer indeed goes out [from] the border of the city of his refuge to where he flees,
तर यदि दोष लगाइएको व्यक्ति कुनै बखत त्यो भागेर गएको सहरको सिमानाबाहिर जान्छ,
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;
र यदि रगतको बदला लिनेले त्यसलाई शरण-नगरको सिमानाबाहिर फेला पार्छ, र यदि त्यसले त्यो दोष लगाइएको व्यक्तिलाई मार्छ भने, रगतको बदला लिने व्यक्ति हत्याको दोषी हुने छैन ।
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.
किनभने त्यो दोष लागेको व्यक्ति प्रधान पुजारीको मृत्यु नभएसम्म त्यसको शरण-नगरभित्र नै बस्नु पर्थ्यो । प्रधान पुजारीको मृत्युपछि त्यो दोष लागेको व्यक्ति आफ्नो सम्पत्ति भएको ठाउँमा फर्केर जान सक्छ ।
29 And these things have been for a statute of judgment to you throughout your generations, in all your dwellings.
यी नियमहरू तिमीहरू बसोबास गर्ने सबै ठाउँमा तिमीहरूका मानिसहरूका पुस्तौँ-पुस्तासम्मको विधिविधान हुनुपर्छ ।
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.
कुनै मानिसलाई मार्ने हत्यारालाई साक्षीहरूले दिएको प्रमाणअनुसार मार्नुपर्छ । तर एक जना मात्र साक्षीको प्रमाणमा कुनै पनि व्यक्तिलाई मार्नु हुदैन ।
31 And you take no atonement for the life of a murderer who [is] condemned to die, for he is certainly put to death;
साथै हत्याराको दोषीको निम्ति तिमीहरूले कुनै किसिको छुटकाराको मूल्य स्वीकार गर्नुहुँदैन । त्यसलाई अवश्य नै मार्नुपर्छ ।
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.
शरण-नगरमा भागेर गएको व्यक्तिको निम्ति तिमीहरूले छुटकाराको मूल्य स्वीकार गर्नुहुँदैन । यसरी प्रधान पुजारीको मृत्यु नभएसम्म तिमीहरूले त्यसलाई आफ्नो जायदाद भएको ठाउँमा बसोबास गर्न दिनुहुँदैन ।
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;
तिमीहरू बसोबास गरेको भूमिलाई यसरी दूषित नपार, किनभने हत्याराबाटको रगतले भूमिलाई दूषित पार्छ । भूमिमा रगत बगाएपछि यसको निम्ति रगत बगाउने व्यक्तिको रगतले बाहेक कुनै किसिमको प्रायश्चित्त गर्न सकिँदैन ।
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.”
त्यसैले तिमीहरू बसोबास गर्ने भूमिलाई तिमीहरूले अशुद्ध पार्नुहुँदैन, किनभने म यसमा बास गर्छु । म परमप्रभु इस्राएलका मानिसहरूमाझ बास गर्छु ।
