< Joshua 20 >
1 YHWH spoke to Joshua, saying,
И рече Господь ко Иисусу, глаголя:
2 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'Assign the cities of refuge, of which I spoke to you by Moses,
рцы сыном Израилевым, глаголя: дадите грады убежений, яже рекох к вам Моисеом:
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.
убежище убийце поразившему душу неволею: и будут вам грады убежище, и не умрет убийца от ужика крове, дондеже предстанет пред сонмом на суд.
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.
И (аще кто) убегнет во един от градов сих, и станет во вратех града, и исповесть во уши старцем града того словеса своя: и приимут его сонм к себе, и дадят ему место жити с ними:
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.
и егда поженет ужик крове вслед его, и не дадут убившаго в руце его: яко не ведый уби ближняго своего и не ненавидя той его от вчера и третияго дне:
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.'"
и да вселится в той град, дондеже станет пред лицем сонма на суд, и дондеже умрет жрец великий, иже будет в тыя дни: тогда да обратится убийца, и внидет во град свой и в дом свой, и во град, отнюдуже избеже.
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.
И отделиша Кедес в Галилеи, в горе Неффалимли, и Сихем в горе Ефремли, и Град Арво (сей есть Хеврон) в горе Иуде:
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.
и об ону страну Иордана ко Иерихону на восток, даша Восор в пустыни в поли от племене Рувимля, и Рамоф в Галааде от племене Гадова, и Голан в Васанитиде от племене Манассиина:
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.
сии грады избраны быша всем сыном Израилевым и пришелцу прилежащему в них, еже убежати тамо всякому убивающему душу неволею, да не умрет от руку ужика крове, дондеже станет пред сонмом на суд.
