< 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:
Hagi Jodani timofo mago kaziga Jeriko megeno kantu kaziga Moapu agupofi Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno Mosesena asami'ne,
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.
Israeli vahera huge'za erisanti haresaza mopafintira, Livae nagama mani'naza rankumatami'ne, tava'ozamire'ma me'nenia mopa sipisipine bulimakao afu'zamima kegava hanaza mopanena zamiho.
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.
Hagi Livae naga'mo'za ana ran kumatamimpi nemani'za, tava'ozamire'ma me'nesia mopafi sipisipine bulimakao afu'zamia kegava hugahaze.
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.
Hagi Livae nagama afu'zamima kegava hanaza mopama refko huzamisazana, rankuma keginaretira maka asoparega 450'a mita vuno eno hinkeno, ran kumamo'a amu'nompi megahie.
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.”
Hagi kuma keginamofo fegiati'ma nofi'ma avazu hanageno zage hanati kaziga vuno, zage fre kazigama vuno kazantamaga kaziga vuno, kaza hoga kazigama vaniana miko 900 mita hanigeno, e'i ana mopa sipisipine bulimakao afutami kegava hu mopa menkeno, rankumamo'a amu'nompi megahie.
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.
Hagi 6si'a kuma'ma Livae naga'ma zamisazana, mago vahe'mo'ma mago'azama hanirega hantagama huno vahe'ma ahefriteno, agu'vazinigu freno umanisia kuma nezamita, ana agofetura 42'a kuma'ene zamigahaze.
7 You must also give to the descendants of Levi 42 other cities and the land around those cities, for their animals,
Hagi Livae nagama zami'nazana maka 48'a rankumatamine, afu'zamima kegavama hanaza mopagi huta refko huzamigahaze.
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.”
Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'zama erisantima haresaza mopafintira Livae nagara mopa eri zamigahane. Hagi rama'a mopama eri'nesaza nagapintira, rama'a mopa eri'nezamita, osi'a mopama eri'nesaza nagapintira osi'a mopa eri zamigahaze.
9 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Anante Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno Mosesena asami'ne,
10 “Tell this to the Israeli people: When you cross the Jordan [River] and enter the Canaan [region],
Israeli vahera zamasmige'za Jodani tima takahe'za Kenani mopafima unefresu'za,
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.
mago vahe'mo'ma mago'azama haniregama hantaga huno mago vahe'ma ahe frisuno'ma freno vuno ome agu'ma vazisia kumatamina mago'a huhamprintesageno megahie.
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.
Hagi ana kumatamina tamagu'vazi kuma me'nena anama ahe frisaza vahe'mofo naga'mo'za nona hu'za ahe ofrisageno mani'neno keagarera otigahie.
13 You must set apart six cities to be cities to which someone who killed another person accidentally may run and be safe.
Hagi ana 6si'a kumatamina tamagu'vazi kuma megahie.
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.
Hagi tamagu'vazi kumara 3'a Jodani kaziga huhamprinteta, 3'a Kenani kaziga huhamprintegahaze.
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].
Hagi e'i ana 6si'a kumamo'a Israeli vaheki, emani vaheki, mago'a erizante vanoma nehania vahe'mo'ma mago'azama hanirega hantga huno vahe'ma ahe friteno, freno ome agu'mavazi'nia kuma megahie.
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.
Hianagi aeni kanonteti'ma vahe'ma ahesigeno frisia vahera, agri'enena ahe friho.
Hagi mago vahe'mo'ma have kanonuma vahe'ma ahefrisia vahera, hazenke hugahianki agri'enena ahefriho.
Hagi kanonteti'ma vahe'ma ahefrisia vahera, hazanke hugahianki agri'enena ahe friho.
19 A relative of the person who was murdered must be the one who executes the murderer as soon as he finds him.
Hagi vahe'ma ahefrisia nera anama frisia vahe'mofo korama'amo'za ana ne'ma kesu'za ahefriho.
20 If someone shoves another person [over a cliff] or throws something at another person
Hagi vahe'mo'ma magomofo arimpa ahenenteno retufetrege, agona zantetima matevuno ahesigeno frisiana, agra hazenke hugahie.
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.
Hagi mago vahe'mo'ma, mago'mofoma rimpa ahenenteno azankanonu'ma ahesigeno frisiana, agra hazenke hugahianki, ana zante'ma nona hu vahe'mo'za kesu'za ahe friho.
22 “But someone might accidentally shove someone else, or accidentally throw something at another person and hit him, not because he hates that person.
Hianagi mago'mofoma arimpa aheonte'neno amne retufetresio, mago'a agonazama mate vanirega hantaga huno ahenigeno frisiano,
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,
ha' vahe'a omani'neanagi avu onkeno have atresigeno ahefrisiana, agra antahino keno osu'neno anara hugahianki,
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)].
kumapi vahe'mo'zane anama ahenageno frisia ne'mofo avate korama'amo'za atruhu'za ana nanekea antahiza refko hugahaze.
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].
Hagi ana kumapi vahe'mo'za, anama fri'nea vahe'mofo naga'mo'zama ahefrizama nehanage'za, ana nera avre'za agu'vazi kumatega ome atregahaze. Hagi ana ne'mo'a ana kumapi mani'nesigeno, ruotage'ma hu'nea masavema anunte'ma frente'nesia ugota pristi ne'ma fritesigeno, ete kuma'arega vugahie
26 “But [while the Supreme Priest is still living], the person who is in that safe city must not leave that city.
Hianagi ana pristi ne'ma ofri'nenigeno, ana ne'mo'ma agu'vazi kumama atreno fegi'ama mani'nenigeno,
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.]
ahe fri'nesia ne'mofo avate korama'amo'ma tutagiha'ma hunteno ahefrisigeno'a keaga omanegosie.
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.
Hagi ana hazenke'ma hu'nenia vahe'mo'a agu'vazi kumapi mani'nenigeno ana pristi nera fritenigeno kuma'arega vugahie.
29 “You must always obey those regulations, wherever you live.
Hagi tamagrane henkama fore hu anante anante'ma huta vanaza vahe'mota, ama ana nanekea kasege me'nena avariri vava hugahaze.
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).
Hagi mago vahe'mo'ma vahe'ma ahe nefrisige'za tareo tagufamo'zama kene'za huama'ma huntesage'za ana vahera ahe frigahaze. Hianagi magoke vahe'mo'ma ke'neno'ma huamama hania zantera, ahe ofrigahaze.
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.
Ana hukna huno vahe'ma ahe fri'nenirera, fruma huno manizankura zagoretira mizaseno omanigahie. Anahukna huta vahe'ma ahe fri'nesirera, ana vahe ahefriho.
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.
Hagi pristi ne'ma ofri'nenkeno agu'vazi kumapintima atiramino fru huno mani'nakura, zago mizaseno kuma'arega ovugosie.
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.
Hagi e'inama hanageno'a mopatamimo'a havizana osugosie. Na'ankure vahe'ma ahefrigeno korama tagirami zamo'a, mopa eri haviza nehie. Hagi ana nona'a, anama vahe'ma ahe fri'nesia vahe'mofo koramoke'za mopa eri agru hugahie.
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.”
Hagi ana'ma umani'naza mopa eri havizana osugahaze. Na'ankure Nagra Ra Anumzamo'na Israeli vahe'mokizmi amu'nompina manigahue.
