< Numbers 35 >
1 Yahweh told this to Moses/me [while the Israeli people were] on the plain in the Moab region near the Jordan [River], across from Jericho:
Nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Moises kadagiti patad ti Moab iti igid ti Jordan idiay Jerico ket kinunana,
2 “Tell the Israeli people that from the land that they will receive, they must give to the descendants of Levi some cities in which they can live. They must also give them some land around these cities.
“Bilinem dagiti tattao ti Israel a mangtedda kadagiti sumagmamano a bukod a bingayda a daga kadagiti Levita. Masapul a mangtedda kadakuada kadagiti siudad a pagnaedan ken daga a pagpaaraban iti aglawlaw kadagitoy a siudad.
3 Those will be for the descendants of Levi to live in, and around the cities will be land for their cattle and flocks of sheep and goats and other animals.
Awatento dagiti Levita dagitoy a siudad a pagnaedan. Maipaayto ti daga a pagpaaraban kadagiti bakada, arbanda, ken kadagiti amin nga ay-ayupda.
4 “The land that you give them for their animals must extend out for (1,500 feet/450 meters) from the walls of the cities.
Dagiti daga a pagpaaraban iti aglawlaw dagiti siudad nga itedyonto kadagiti Levita ket masapul nga aglayon manipud kadagiti pader ti siudad iti 1, 000 a kasiko iti tunggal pagturonganna.
5 Also measure (3,000 feet/900 meters) in each direction out from the walls of each city. That additional land will be land for their animals outside the walls of the cities.”
Masapul a mangrukodka ti 2, 000 a kasiko manipud iti ruar ti siudad iti daya a paset, ken 2, 000 a kasiko iti abagatan a paset, 2, 000 a kasiko iti laud a paset, ken 2, 000 a kasiko iti amianan a paset. Daytoyto ti daga a pagaraban a maipaay kadagiti siudadda. Dagiti siudad ket addanto iti tengnga.
6 “Six of the cities that you give to the descendants of Levi will be cities to which people [can run] to be safe. If someone [accidentally] kills someone else, the one who killed that person may run to one of those cities to be safe.
Dagiti innem kadagiti siudad nga itedyonto kadagiti Levita ket masapul nga agpaay a kas siudad a pagkamangan. Masapul nga ipaayyo dagitoy a kas lugar a pagkamangan dagiti naakusaran a mammapatay. Mangipaaykayo met iti 42 a dadduma a siudad.
7 You must also give to the descendants of Levi 42 other cities and the land around those cities, for their animals,
Agdagup iti 48 dagiti siudad nga itedyo kadagiti Levita. Masapul nga itedyo kadakuada dagiti pagaraban a dagada.
8 The Israeli tribes that have the most people must give them more cities than the tribes that have fewer people give. Each tribe must give some of its cities to the descendants of Levi, but the tribes that have more land must give more cities, and the tribes that have less land will give fewer cities.”
Dagiti dakdakkel a tribu dagiti tattao ti Israel, dagiti tribu a nalawlawa ti dagada, ket masapul a mangited iti ad-adu a siudad. Dagiti basbassit a tribu ket mangited ti basbassit a siudad. Masapul a manipaay ti tunggal tribu iti para kadagiti Levita segun iti bingay a naawat daytoy.”
9 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Ket nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Moises ket kinunana,
10 “Tell this to the Israeli people: When you cross the Jordan [River] and enter the Canaan [region],
“Agsaoka kadagiti tattao ti Israel ket ibagam kadakuada, 'Inton bumallasiwkayo iti Jordan a mapan iti daga ti Canaan,
11 you must choose some cities to which people can run to be safe/protected. If someone kills another person (accidentally/without planning to do that), the one who killed that person may run to one of those cities and be safe.
ket masapul a mangpilikayo kadagiti siudad nga agpaay a kas siudad a pagkamangan para kadakayo, tapno siasinoman a makapatay iti maysa a tao a saanna nga inggagara ket mabalinna a kumamang kadagitoy.
12 One of the relatives of the person who was killed may think he must avenge his relative’s death [by killing the murderer]. But in that city, the killer will be safe [because the people in that city would kill those relatives if they tried to get revenge there]. The man who killed someone accidentally [must] be put on trial in a court.
Dagitoy a siudad ket agbalinto a pagkamanganyo manipud iti mangibales, tapno saanto a mapapatay ti tao a naakusaran a saan nga agtakder nga umuna iti pangukoman iti sangoanan dagiti tattao.
13 You must set apart six cities to be cities to which someone who killed another person accidentally may run and be safe.
Masapul a mangpilikayo iti innem a siudad nga agpaay a kas siudad a pagkamangan.
14 There must be three of those cities on the east side of the Jordan [River] and three that will be [on the west side], in the Canaan region.
Masapul a mangipaaykayo iti tallo a siudad iti labes ti Jordan ken tallo idiay daga ti Canaan. Agbalinto dagitoy a siudad a pagkamangan.
15 Those six cities will be cities where Israeli people may run to and be safe, and where foreigners and other people who are living among you can also run to and be safe. Any of those people who accidentally kills someone may run to one of those cities [and be safe/protected there].
Para kadagiti tattao ti Israel, kadagiti ganggannaet, kadagiti tunggal maysa nga agnanaed kadakayo, dagitoy nga innem a siudad ket agpaayto a kas pagkamangan dagiti siasinoman a makapatay ti maysa a tao.
16 “But [you must consider that] anyone who kills another person with an iron weapon or with a big rock or with a piece of wood, is a murderer, and the one who killed the other person must be executed.
Ngem no kinabil ti naakusaran a tao ti biktimana babaen iti alikamen a landok, ket no matay ti biktimana, pudno ngaru a mammapatay ti naakusaran. Awan dua-dua a mapapatay isuna.
No kinabil ti naakusaran a tao ti biktimana babaen iti maysa a bato iti imana a mabalin a makapatay iti biktima, ket no matay ti biktimana, pudno ngarud a mammapatay ti naakusaran. Awan dua-dua a mapapatay isuna.
No kinabil ti naakusaran a tao ti biktimana babaen iti kayo nga igam a mabalin a makapatay iti biktima, ket no matay ti dinangranna, pudno ngarud a mammapatay ti naakusaran. Awan dua-dua a mapapatay isuna.
19 A relative of the person who was murdered must be the one who executes the murderer as soon as he finds him.
Ti mangibales iti dara ket mabalin nga isuna mismo ti mangpatay iti mammapatay. Inton masabatna isuna, mabalinna a papatayen isuna.
20 If someone shoves another person [over a cliff] or throws something at another person
Ket no sigugura nga iduron ti naakusaran a tao ti siasinoman wenno barsakenna isuna, bayat nga aglemlemmeng a mangsaneb kenkuana, ket natay ti biktimana,
21 or hits that person with his hand/fist and causes that person to die, if he did it because he hated that person, then you must consider that he is a murderer, and must be executed. A relative of the person who was killed must be the one who executes the murderer as soon as he finds him.
wenno no sigugura a kinabilna isuna babaen iti imana a nakatayan ti biktimana, awan dua-dua ngarud a mapapatay ti naakusaran a tao a nangkabil kenkuana. Mammapatay isuna. Ti mangibales iti dara ket mabalin a papatayenna ti mammapatay inton masabatna isuna.
22 “But someone might accidentally shove someone else, or accidentally throw something at another person and hit him, not because he hates that person.
Ngem no kellaat a nadangran ti naakusaran a tao ti biktima nga awan ti gurana iti napalabas wenno nabarsakna ti biktima a saanna a sinaneb
23 Or he might drop a rock on someone that he did not see. If the one who does that does not plan to hurt anyone and does not hate the person that was killed,
wenno no nangipurwak iti bato a mabalin a makapatay iti biktima a saanna a nakita ti biktima, ti naakusaran ngarud ket saan a kabusor ti biktima; saanna a pinadas a dangran ti biktima. Ngem no natay latta ti bikitima,
24 the people of that city must decide whether the relative of the dead person [has the right to get revenge], or whether the one who killed the other person [truly did it (accidentally/without planning to do it)].
iti dayta a pasamak, masapul a mangngeddeng dagiti tattao iti nagbaetan ti naakusaran ken ti mangibales iti dara a maibasar kadagitoy a pagannurotan.
25 [If they decide that the killer planned to kill the other person, they must not allow him to stay in their city. But if they decide that it was done accidentally], they must protect the killer from being killed by the dead person’s relative. They must send the killer to one of the cities where he will be safe/protected, and allow him to stay there until the Supreme Priest dies. [After that, the killer may go back to his home, because the dead person’s relative no longer has the right to get revenge].
Masapul nga ispalen dagiti tattao ti naakusaran manipud iti pannakabalin ti mangibales iti dara. Masapul nga isubli dagiti tattao ti naakusaran iti siudad a pagkamangan a sigud a nagkamanganna. Masapul nga agnaed isuna sadiay agingga iti ipapatay iti agdama a kangatoan a padi, ti napulotan ti nasantoan a lana.
26 “But [while the Supreme Priest is still living], the person who is in that safe city must not leave that city.
Ngem no lummabes ti naakusaran a tao iti aniaman a tiempo iti beddeng ti siudad a pagkamangan a nagkamanganna,
27 If he goes outside the city, and if a relative of the dead person finds him, that relative is permitted to kill that person, [and people will not consider that the relative is guilty of murder.]
ket no nasarakan isuna ti mangibales iti dara iti ruar ti beddeng iti siudad a nagkamanganna, ket no pinapatayna ti naakusaran a tao, saanto a nakabasol ti mangibales iti dara iti panangpapatay.
28 The killer must stay in that city where he will be safe/protected until the Supreme Priest dies. [He will be safe from revenge after that, because the death of the Supreme Priest will be considered to be a sacrifice to atone for that murder]. After that, the killer may return to his home.
Daytoy ket gapu ta masapul a nagtalinaed koma ti naakusaran a tao iti siudad a nagkamanganna agingga iti ipapatay ti kangatoan a padi. Kalpasan ti ipapatay ti kangatoan a padi, mabalinton nga agsubli ti naakusaran iti daga nga ayan ti bukodna a sanikua.
29 “You must always obey those regulations, wherever you live.
Dagitoy a linteg ket masapul nga agbalin nga alagaden nga agpaay kadakayo iti amin a tattao ti henerasionyo iti amin a lugar a pagnaedanyo.
30 “If someone [is accused of] killing another person, the one who is accused may be executed only if there are people who saw him do it. There must be more than one witness; no one is permitted to be executed if there was only one (witness/person who saw him do it).
Siasinoman a pumatay iti maysa a tao, masapul a mapapatay ti mammapatay, a mapaneknekan babaen kadagiti sao dagiti saksi. Ngem ti maysa a sao laeng ti saksi ket saan nga umanay a mapapatay ti siasinoman a tao.
31 “If there is a murderer who truly should be executed, do not [spare his life by] accepting (a ransom/money for him not to be killed). He must be executed.
Masapul a saankayo pay nga umawat ti pangsubbot para iti biag ti mammapatay a nakabasol iti panangpapatay. Awan dua-dua a mapapatay isuna.
32 “If someone has run to a city where he will be safe/protected, do not allow him to give you money in order that you will permit him to return to his home before the Supreme Priest dies.
Ken masapul a saankayo nga umawat ti pangsubbot para iti tao a nagkamang iti siudad a pagkamangan. Masapul a saanyo nga ipalubos nga agnaed isuna iti bukodna a sanikua iti kastoy a wagas agingga a matay ti kangatoan a padi.
33 “You must execute people who truly murder others. If you did not do that, you would be causing the people who live in the land to become unacceptable to me. Anyone who deliberately kills an innocent person must be executed.
Saanyo a rugitan ti daga a pagnanaedanyo iti kastoy a wagas, gapu ta ti dara a nagtaud iti panangpapatay ket rugitanna ti daga. Awan ti maaramid a pannakadalus nga agpaay iti daga inton naisayasay ti dara iti daytoy, malaksid iti dara ti nangpasayasay daytoy.
34 I am Yahweh, and I live among you Israelis, so do not spoil/pollute the land by allowing people to murder others without being punished.”
Isu a saanyo tulawan ti daga a pagnanaedanyo gapu ta agnanaedak iti daytoy. Siak ni Yahweh, agnanaedak kadagiti tattao ti Israel.'”
