Joshua 20
1 YHWH spoke to Joshua, saying,
Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Yoshuwa,
2 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'Assign the cities of refuge, of which I spoke to you by Moses,
“Ka gaya wa Isra’ilawa su keɓe waɗansu birane su zama biranen mafaka kamar yadda na umarce ku ta wurin Musa,
3 that the manslayer who kills any person accidentally or unintentionally may flee there. They shall be for you a refuge from the avenger of blood.
domin idan wani ya kashe wani bisa kuskure ba da niyyar yin kisankai ba, mutumin zai iya gudu zuwa can yă fake don kada a kashe shi.
4 He shall flee to one of those cities, and shall stand at the entrance of the gate of the city, and declare his cause in the ears of the elders of that city. They shall take him into the city with them, and give him a place, that he may live among them.
Lokacin da ya gudu zuwa ɗaya daga cikin biranen nan, sai yă tsaya a ƙofar birnin yă gaya wa dattawan wannan birni damuwarsa. Sa’an nan su karɓe shi su ba shi wurin zama a cikin birninsu.
5 If the avenger of blood pursue after him, then they shall not deliver up the manslayer into his hand; because he struck his neighbor unintentionally, and did not hate him before.
In mai neman yă kashe shi don ramako ya bi shi zuwa can, ba za su miƙa shi ba domin ba da niyya ya kashe wani ba, kuma ba fushi ne ya sa ya yi kisan ba.
6 He shall dwell in that city until he stands before the congregation for judgment, until the death of the high priest that shall be in those days. Then the manslayer shall return, and come to his own city, and to his own house, to the city he fled from.'"
Zai zauna a wannan birni har sai taron jama’a sun yi masa shari’a, kuma har sai lokacin da babban firist wanda yake aiki a lokacin ya mutu, sa’an nan zai iya koma garinsa na dā.”
7 They set apart Kedesh in Galilee in the hill country of Naphtali, Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim, and Kiriath Arba (that is, Hebron) in the hill country of Judah.
Saboda haka suka keɓe Kedesh a Galili a ƙasar kan tudu ta Naftali, Shekem a ƙasar kan tudu ta Efraim, da Kiriyat Arba (wato, Hebron) a ƙasar kan tudu ta Yahuda.
8 Beyond the Jordan at Jericho eastward, they assigned Bezer on the wilderness plateau out of the tribe of Reuben, Ramoth in Gilead out of the tribe of Gad, and Golan in Bashan out of the tribe of Manasseh.
A hayin Urdun, gabas da Yeriko, suka keɓe Bezer ta jeji a kan tudu a cikin yankin kabilar Ruben, Ramot cikin Gileyad a kabilar Gad, da Golan cikin Bashan a kabilar Manasse.
9 These were the appointed cities for all the children of Israel, and for the stranger who sojourns among them, that whoever kills any person unintentionally might flee there, and not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, until he stands before the congregation.
In wani mutumin Isra’ila ko kuma wani baƙon da yake zama a cikinsu, ya yi kisankai cikin kuskure, zai iya gudu zuwa biranen da aka keɓe, ba za a bari mai neman ramako yă kashe shi kafin jama’a su yi masa shari’a ba.
