< Deuteronomy 19 >

1 for to cut: eliminate LORD God your [obj] [the] nation which LORD God your to give: give to/for you [obj] land: country/planet their and to possess: take them and to dwell in/on/with city their and in/on/with house: home their
When Yahweh your God cuts off the nations, those whose land Yahweh your God is giving you, and when you come after them and live in their cities and houses,
2 three city to separate to/for you in/on/with midst land: country/planet your which LORD God your to give: give to/for you to/for to possess: take her
you must select three cities for yourself in the middle of your land that Yahweh your God is giving you to possess.
3 to establish: right to/for you [the] way: road and to do three [obj] border: area land: country/planet your which to inherit you LORD God your and to be to/for to flee there [to] all to murder
You must build a road and divide the borders of your land into three parts, the land that Yahweh your God is causing you to inherit, so that everyone who kills another person may flee there.
4 and this word: case [the] to murder which to flee there [to] and to live which to smite [obj] neighbor his in/on/with without knowledge and he/she/it not to hate to/for him from yesterday three days ago
This is the law for the one who kills another and who flees there to live—anyone who kills his neighbor unintentionally, and did not previously hate him.
5 and which to come (in): come with neighbor his in/on/with wood to/for to chop tree: wood and to banish hand his in/on/with axe to/for to cut: cut [the] tree and to slip [the] iron from [the] tree: stake and to find [obj] neighbor his and to die he/she/it to flee to(wards) one [the] city [the] these and to live
For example, if a man goes into the forest with his neighbor to cut wood, and his chops with the ax to cut down a tree, and the ax head slips off of the handle and strikes his neighbor and kills him—then that man must flee to one of these cities and save his life.
6 lest to pursue to redeem: avenge [the] blood after [the] to murder for to warm heart his and to overtake him for to multiply [the] way: journey and to smite him soul: myself and to/for him nothing justice: judgement death for not to hate he/she/it to/for him from yesterday three days ago
Otherwise the avenger of blood might go after the one who took a life, and in the heat of his anger overtake him, if the distance is too great, strike him and kill him, even though that man did not deserve to die, since he had not hated his neighbor in the past.
7 upon so I to command you to/for to say three city to separate to/for you
Therefore I command you to select three cities for yourself.
8 and if to enlarge LORD God your [obj] border: area your like/as as which to swear to/for father your and to give: give to/for you [obj] all [the] land: country/planet which to speak: promise to/for to give: give to/for father your
If Yahweh your God enlarges your borders, as he has sworn to your ancestors to do, and gives you all the land that he promised to give to your ancestors;
9 for to keep: careful [obj] all [the] commandment [the] this to/for to make: do her which I to command you [the] day to/for to love: lover [obj] LORD God your and to/for to go: walk in/on/with way: conduct his all [the] day: today and to add to/for you still three city upon [the] three [the] these
if you keep all these commandments to do them, which I am commanding you today—commandments to love Yahweh your God and to always walk in his ways, then you must add three more cities for yourself, besides these three.
10 and not to pour: kill blood innocent in/on/with entrails: among land: country/planet your which LORD God your to give: give to/for you inheritance and to be upon you blood
Do this so that innocent blood is not shed in the midst of the land that Yahweh your God is giving you for as an inheritance, so that no bloodguilt may be on you.
11 and for to be man: anyone to hate to/for neighbor his and to ambush to/for him and to arise: attack upon him and to smite him soul: life and to die and to flee to(wards) one [the] city [the] these
But if anyone hates his neighbor, lies in wait for him, rises up against him, and mortally wounds him so that he dies, and if he then flees into one of these cities—
12 and to send: depart old: elder city his and to take: take [obj] him from there and to give: give [obj] him in/on/with hand: to to redeem: avenge [the] blood and to die
then the elders of his city must send and bring him back from there, and turn him over into the hand of the responsible relative, so that he may die.
13 not to pity eye your upon him and to burn: purge blood [the] innocent from Israel and be pleasing to/for you
Your eye must not pity him; instead, you must eradicate the bloodguilt from Israel, that it may go well with you.
14 not to remove border: boundary neighbor your which to border first: previous in/on/with inheritance your which to inherit in/on/with land: country/planet which LORD God your to give: give to/for you to/for to possess: take her
You must not remove your neighbor's landmark that they set in place a long time ago, in your inheritance that you will inherit, in the land that Yahweh your God is giving you to possess.
15 not to arise: establish witness one in/on/with man: anyone to/for all iniquity: crime and to/for all sin in/on/with all sin which to sin upon lip: word two witness or upon lip: word three witness to arise: establish word
One sole witness must not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any matter that he sins; at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, must any matter be confirmed.
16 for to arise: rise witness violence in/on/with man: anyone to/for to answer in/on/with him revolt
Suppose that an unrighteous witness rises up against any man to testify against him of wrongdoing.
17 and to stand: stand two [the] human which to/for them [the] strife to/for face: before LORD to/for face: before [the] priest and [the] to judge which to be in/on/with day [the] they(masc.)
Then both men, the ones between whom the controversy exists, must stand before Yahweh, before the priests and the judges who serve in those days.
18 and to seek [the] to judge be good and behold witness deception [the] witness deception to answer in/on/with brother: compatriot his
The judges must make diligent inquiries; see, if the witness is a false witness and has testified falsely against his brother,
19 and to make: do to/for him like/as as which to plan to/for to make: do to/for brother: compatriot his and to burn: purge [the] bad: evil from entrails: among your
then must you do to him, as he had wished to do to his brother; and you will remove the evil from among you.
20 and [the] to remain to hear: hear and to fear and not to add: again to/for to make still like/as word: thing [the] bad: evil [the] this in/on/with entrails: among your
Then those who remain will hear and fear, and will from then on commit no longer any such evil among you.
21 and not to pity eye your soul: life in/on/with soul: life eye in/on/with eye tooth in/on/with tooth hand in/on/with hand foot in/on/with foot
Your eyes must not pity; life will pay for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
