Numbers 35
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho, saying,
Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy teo Arbota-moaba, amoron’ i Jordana tandrifin’ i Jeriko, ka nanao hoe:
2 Command the children of Israel, that they give unto the Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to dwell in; and suburbs for the cities round about them shall ye give unto the Levites.
Mandidia ny Zanak’ Isiraely mba hanome tanàna ao amin’ ny zara-taniny avy honenan’ ny Levita; ary homenareo tany manodidina ny tanàna koa izy.
3 And the cities shall they have to dwell in; and their suburbs shall be for their cattle, and for their substance, and for all their beasts.
Koa ny tanàna dia honenany; ary ny tany dia ho an’ ny biby fiompiny sy ny fananany mbamin’ ny bibiny rehetra.
4 And the suburbs of the cities, which ye shall give unto the Levites, shall be from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits round about.
Ary ny tany manodidina ny tanàna izay homenareo ny Levita dia izao: Hatramin’ ny màndan’ ny tanàna ka hatramin’ ny faritry ny taniny dia arivo hakiho amin’ ny lafiny efatra avy.
5 And ye shall measure without the city for the east side two thousand cubits, and for the south side two thousand cubits, and for the west side two thousand cubits, and for the north side two thousand cubits, the city being in the midst. This shall be to them the suburbs of the cities.
Dia handrefy roa arivo hakiho eo ivelan’ ny tanàna ianareo amin’ ny lafiny atsinanana, ary roa arivo hakiho amin’ ny lafiny atsimo, ary roa arivo hakiho amin’ ny lafiny andrefana, ary roa arivo hakiho amin’ ny lafiny avaratra, ary ny tanàna dia ho eo afovoany; izany no ho taniny manodidina ny tanàna.
6 And the cities which ye shall give unto the Levites, they shall be the six cities of refuge, which ye shall give for the manslayer to flee thither: and beside them ye shall give forty and two cities.
Ary izao no tanàna izay homenareo ny Levita: dia tanàna enina, fandosirana, izay homenareo handosiran’ izay nahafaty olona, sy tanàna roa amby efa-polo koa.
7 All the cities which ye shall give to the Levites shall be forty and eight cities: them [shall ye give] with their suburbs.
Koa ny tanàna rehetra izay homenareo ny Levita dia valo amby efa-polo mbamin’ ny tany manodidina azy.
8 And concerning the cities which ye shall give of the possession of the children of Israel, from the many ye shall take many; and from the few ye shall take few: every one according to his inheritance which he inheriteth shall give of his cities unto the Levites.
Ary ny amin’ ny tanàna izay homenareo avy amin’ ny zara-tanin’ ny firenen’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely, dia izay be no hanalanareo be, ary izay kely no hanalanareo kely: samy hanome tanàna ho an’ ny Levita izy rehetra araka ny zara-taniny avy.
9 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:
10 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye pass over Jordan into the land of Canaan,
Mitenena amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely hoe: Rehefa tafita an’ i Jordana ianareo ka tonga any amin’ ny tany Kanana,
11 then ye shall appoint you cities to be cities of refuge for you; that the manslayer which killeth any person unwittingly may flee thither.
dia hifidy tanàna ianareo, ho tanàna fandosirana ho anareo, mba handosiran’ izay nahafaty olona tsy nahy.
12 And the cities shall be unto you for refuge from the avenger; that the manslayer die not, until he stand before the congregation for judgment.
Dia ho fandosirana ho anareo mba tsy ho azon’ ny mpamaly rà izany tanàna izany, mba tsy ho faty izay nahafaty olona mandra-pisehony hotsaraina eo anatrehan’ ny fiangonana.
13 And the cities which ye shall give shall be for you six cities of refuge.
Ary ireo tanàna homenareo ireo dia ho tanàna fandosirana enina ho anareo.
14 Ye shall give three cities beyond Jordan, and three cities shall ye give in the land of Canaan; they shall be cities of refuge.
Ny tanàna telo dia homenareo etỳ an-dafin’ i Jordana etỳ, ary ny tanàna telo kosa homenareo ao amin’ ny tany Kanana; ho tanàna fandosirana ireo.
15 For the children of Israel, and for the stranger and for the sojourner among them, shall these six cities be for refuge: that every one that killeth any person unwittingly may flee thither.
Ireo tanàna enina ireo dia ho fandosirana ho an’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely sy ny vahiny ary ny mpitoetra ao aminy, mba handosiran’ izay rehetra nahafaty olona tsy nahy.
16 But if he smote him with an instrument of iron, so that he died, he is a manslayer: the manslayer shall surely be put to death.
Kanefa raha misy mamely vy olona ka mahafaty, dia nahafaty olona izy; hatao maty tokoa izay nahafaty olona.
17 And if he smote him with a stone in the hand, whereby a man may die, and he died, he is a manslayer: the manslayer shall surely be put to death.
Ary raha misy mamely vato olona ka mahafaty, dia nahafaty olona izy; hatao maty tokoa izay nahafaty olona.
18 Or if he smote him with a weapon of wood in the hand, whereby a man may die, and he died, he is a manslayer: the manslayer shall surely be put to death.
Ary raha misy mamely hazo olona ka mahafaty, dia nahafaty olona izy; hatao maty tokoa izay nahafaty olona.
19 The avenger of blood shall himself put the manslayer to death: when he meeteth him, he shall put him to death.
Ny mpamaly rà no mahazo mamono azy; raha mihaona aminy izy, dia mahazo mamono azy.
20 And if he thrust him of hatred, or hurled at him, lying in wait, so that he died;
Ary raha misy mamely olona noho ny lolom-po, na mitoraka olona amin’ ny fanotrehana, ka mahafaty,
21 or in enmity smote him with his hand, that he died: he that smote him shall surely be put to death; he is a manslayer: the avenger of blood shall put the manslayer to death, when he meeteth him.
na mamely amin’ ny tànany noho ny fandrafiana ka mahafaty, dia hatao maty tokoa ilay namely; nahafaty olona izy; ny mpamaly rà no mahazo mamono azy, raha mihaona aminy izy.
22 But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or hurled upon him any thing without lying in wait,
Fa raha misy mamely olona tsy nahy, ka tsy noho ny fandrafiana, na mitoraka olona na amin’ inona na amin’ inona, nefa tsy amin’ ny fanotrehana,
23 or with any stone, whereby a man may die, seeing him not, and cast it upon him, so that he died, and he was not his enemy, neither sought his harm:
na sendra manjera vato ka mahafaty olona, nefa tsy hitany, sady tsy fahavalony izy, na mitady handratra azy,
24 then the congregation shall judge between the smiter and the avenger of blood according to these judgments:
dia hotsarain’ ny fiangonana ilay namely sy ny mpamaly rà araka izany lalàna izany.
25 and the congregation shall deliver the manslayer out of the hand of the avenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore him to his city of refuge, whither he was fled: and he shall dwell therein until the death of the high priest, which was anointed with the holy oil.
Ary hovonjen’ ny fiangonana ho afaka amin’ ny mpamaly rà ilay nahafaty olona, ka hateriny indray ho ao amin’ ny tanàna fandosirana izay nalehany tamin’ izy nandositra; ary hitoetra ao izy mandra-pahafatin’ ny mpisoronabe izay voahosotra tamin’ ny diloilo masìna.
26 But if the manslayer shall at any time go beyond the border of his city of refuge, whither he fleeth;
Fa raha mivoaka ho eo ivelan’ ny tanàna fandosirana izay nalehany tamin’ izy nandositra ilay nahafaty olona
27 and the avenger of blood find him without the border of his city of refuge, and the avenger of blood slay the manslayer; he shall not be guilty of blood:
ka hitan’ ny mpamaly rà eo ivelan’ ny tanàna, dia azony vonoina izy; ary tsy hisy valin-drà amin’ izany,
28 because he should have remained in his city of refuge until the death of the high priest: but after the death of the high priest the manslayer shall return into the land of his possession.
satria tokony ho nitoetra tao an-tanàna fandosirana izy mandra-pahafatin’ ny mpisoronabe; fa rehefa maty ny mpisoronabe, dia mahazo mody any amin’ ny zara-taniny ihany ilay nahafaty olona.
29 And these things shall be for a statute of judgment unto you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
Ary izany zavatra izany dia ho lalàna hitondrana anareo hatramin’ ny taranakareo fara mandimby eny amin’ izay rehetra onenanareo.
30 Whoso killeth any person, the manslayer shall be slain at the mouth of witnesses: but one witness shall not testify against any person that he die.
Ny amin’ izay rehetra mahafaty olona, dia hatao maty izay mahafaty, araka ny tenin’ ny vavolombelona; nefa raha vavolombelona iray monja, dia tsy ampy hanameloka hahafaty olona izany.
31 Moreover ye shall take no ransom for the life of a manslayer, which is guilty of death: but he shall surely be put to death.
Ary ianareo tsy handray avotry ny ain’ ny nahafaty olona, izay meloka ka tokony ho faty; fa hatao maty tokoa izy.
32 And ye shall take no ransom for him that is fled to his city of refuge, that he should come again to dwell in the land, until the death of the priest.
Ary ianareo tsy handray avotra ho an’ izay mandositra ho ao an-tanàna fandosirana, mba hodiany indray hitoetra amin’ ny taniny, raha mbola tsy maty ny mpisorona.
33 So ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are: for blood, it polluteth the land: and no expiation can be made for the land for the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.
Ary aza mametaveta ny tany izay onenanareo, fa ny rà dia fametavetana ny tany; ary ny tany tsy azo anaovana fanavotana ny amin’ ny rà izay nalatsaka teo, afa-tsy amin’ ny ran’ izay nandatsaka azy ihany.
34 And thou shalt not defile the land which ye inhabit, in the midst of which I dwell: for I the LORD dwell in the midst of the children of Israel.
Ary aza lotoinareo ny tany onenanareo, izay itoerako; fa Izaho Jehovah mitoetra eo amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
