Joshua 20
1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Joshua, saying,
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Joshua,
2 'Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Give for you cities of refuge, as I have spoken unto you by the hand of Moses,
“Fahk nu sin mwet Israel elos in sulela siti in molela oana ke nga tuh fahk Moses elan fahkot nu sum.
3 for the fleeing thither of a man-slayer smiting life inadvertently, without knowledge; and they have been to you for a refuge from the redeemer of blood.
Fin oasr mwet se uniya sie mwet ke tia ma el akoo in orala a ma ke ongla ouiya, elan ku in kaingla nu we ac suk molela liki mwet se ma suk in foloksak nu sel an.
4 'When [one] hath fled unto one of these cities, and hath stood [at] the opening of the gate of the city, and hath spoken in the ears of the elders of that city his matter, then they have gathered him into the city unto them, and have given to him a place, and he hath dwelt with them.
El fin kaingla nu in sie siti inge, el enenu in tui ke acn in nununku ke acn in utyak an, ac fahkak ma se el orala an nu sin mwet kol in siti sacn. Na elos fah ku in eisal nu in siti sac ac sang sie acn elan muta we.
5 'And when the redeemer of blood doth pursue after him, then they do not shut up the man-slayer into his hand, for without knowledge he hath smitten his neighbour, and is not hating him hitherto;
Mwet sukok foloksak inge fin ukwal nu in acn sac, na mwet in siti sac elos tia ku in eisalang nu sel mweyen inkanek in ongla ouiya se pa el tuh eisla moul lun mwet sac kac ah, ac tia ma el akola sel in oru.
6 and he hath dwelt in that city till his standing before the company for judgment, till the death of the chief priest who is in those days — then doth the man-slayer turn back and hath come unto his city, and unto his house, unto the city whence he fled.'
Mwet sac enenu in mutana in siti sac nwe ke na orekla nununku nu sel sin mwet kol in acn sac, ac nwe ke na Mwet Tol Fulat se lun Israel in pacl sac el misa. Tukun pacl se inge, na mwet sacn fah ku in folokla nu in acn sel ma el kaingla we me.”
7 And they sanctify Kedesh in Galilee, in the hill-country of Naphtali, and Shechem in the hill-country of Ephraim, and Kirjath-Arba (it [is] Hebron), in the hill-country of Judah;
Ouinge elos sulela acn Kedesh in Galilee ke fineol in acn lal Naphtali, ac Shechem ke fineol in acn lal Ephraim, ac Hebron (Kiriath-arba) ke fineol in acn lal Judah. Siti inge kewa oan roto in Infacl Jordan.
8 and beyond the Jordan, [at] Jericho eastward, they have given Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain, out of the tribe of Reuben, and Ramoth in Gilead out of the tribe of Gad, and Golan in Bashan out of the tribe of Manasseh.
Elos sulela Bezer in acn mwesis lal Reuben, ac Ramoth in Gilead in acn lal Gad, ac Golan in Bashan in acn lal Manasseh. Siti inge kewa oan kutulap in Infacl Jordan ke acn tupasrpasr ke fineol kutulap in Jericho.
9 These have been cities of meeting for all the sons of Israel, and for a sojourner who is sojourning in their midst, for the fleeing thither of any one smiting life inadvertently, and he doth not die by the hand of the redeemer of blood till his standing before the company.
Kutena sin mwet Israel, ku mwetsac su muta inmasrlolos, fin eisla moul lun sie mwet ke ongla ouiya, el ku in kaingla nu in sie sin siti inge, na ac tia anwuki el sin mwet ma suk in foloksak nu sel meet liki nununkeyuk el yurin mwet kol in acn sac.
