< Numbers 35 >

1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, in the plains of Moab, by Jordan, [near] Jericho, saying,
BOEIPA loh Moses te Jerikho Jordan kah Moab kolken ah a voek tih,
2 'Command the sons of Israel, and they have given to the Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to inhabit; also a suburb for the cities round about them ye do give to the Levites.
Israel ca rhoek te uen lamtah amih kah khohut rho lamloh Levi te pae uh saeh. Khosa ham khopuei rhoek neh a kaepvai ah khopuei kah khocaak te Levi ham pae uh saeh.
3 And the cities have been to them to inhabit, and their suburbs are for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.
Te daengah ni amih khosa rhoek ham khaw khopuei om vetih a rhamsa ham neh a khuehtawn ham khaw, a mulhing cungkuem ham khaw a khocaak a om eh.
4 'And the suburbs of the cities which ye give to the Levites [are], from the wall of the city and without, a thousand cubits round about.
Khopuei kah khocaak te khopuei pangbueng lamloh vongvoel kaepvai dong thawngkhat hil tah Levi taengah pae uh.
5 And ye have measured from the outside of the city, the east quarter, two thousand by the cubit, and the south quarter, two thousand by the cubit, and the west quarter, two thousand by the cubit, and the north quarter, two thousand by the cubit; and the city [is] in the midst; this is to them the suburbs of the cities.
Te dongah khopuei kah vongvoel lamloh khothoeng ben te dong thawng hnih, tuithim ben te dong thawng hnih, khotlak ben te dong thawng hnih, tlangpuei ben te dong thawng hnih suem pah. A laklung kah khopuei tah amih ham khopuei kah khocaak la om saeh.
6 'And the cities which ye give to the Levites [are] the six cities of refuge, which ye give for the fleeing thither of the man-slayer, and besides them ye give forty and two cities;
Khopuei khuiah khaw hlipyingnah khopuei parhuk te Levi taengah pae uh. Te te hlang aka ngawn tah te la rhaelrham sak ham pae uh. Amih te khopuei sawmli panit pae uh.
7 all the cities which ye give to the Levites [are] forty and eight cities, them and their suburbs.
Levi taengah na paek uh khopuei boeih amih kah khocaak nen tah kho sawmli parhet lo saeh.
8 And the cities which ye give [are] of the possession of the sons of Israel, from the many ye multiply, and from the few ye diminish; each, according to his inheritance which they inherit, doth give of his cities to the Levites.'
Khopuei te Israel ca kah khohut khui lamloh pae uh. A yet taeng lamkah tah kum sak uh lamtah a sii taeng lamkah tah sih pauh. Hlang long he amah rho dongkah olka tarhing ah a pang vanbangla a khopuei khui lamkah te Levi taengah pae saeh,” a ti nah.
9 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
10 'Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye are passing over the Jordan to the land of Canaan,
“Israel ca rhoek te voek lamtah amih te thui pah. Nangmih te Kanaan kho khuila Jordan na kat uh vaengah,
11 and have prepared to yourselves cities — cities of refuge they are to you — then fled thither hath a man-slayer, smiting a person unawares,
Namamih ham khopuei kang uh lamtah nangmih ham hlipyingnah khopuei la om saeh. Te daengah ni tohtamaeh ah hinglu a boh tih aka ngawn loh te lam a rhaelrham eh.
12 and the cities have been to you for a refuge from the redeemer, and the man-slayer doth not die till his standing before the company for judgment.
Te vaengah khopuei rhoek te nangmih taengah hinglu aka suk taeng lamloh hlipyingnah la om saeh. Te daengah ni laitloeknah dongah rhaengpuei mikhmuh la a pai hlan hilah hlang aka ngawn te a duek pawt eh.
13 'As to the cities which ye give — six [are] cities of refuge to you;
Khopuei parhuk na paek uh te nangmih ham hlipyingnah khopuei la om saeh.
14 the three of the cities ye give beyond the Jordan, and the three of the cities ye give in the land of Canaan; cities of refuge they are.
Khopuei pathum te Jordan kah rhalvangan ah pae uh lamtah khopuei pathum te Kanaan khohmuen ah pae uh.
15 To sons of Israel, and to a sojourner, and to a settler in their midst, are these six cities for a refuge, for the fleeing thither of any one smiting a person unawares.
Israel ca rhoek ham neh yinlai ham khaw, amih lakli kah lampah ham khaw hlipyingnah khopuei la om saeh. Khopuei parhuk he tah tohtamaeh ah hinglu aka ngawn boeih loh a rhaelrham vaengah hlipyingnah la om saeh.
16 'And if with an instrument of iron he hath smitten him, and he dieth, he [is] a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.
Tedae aka ngawn long khaw anih te thi hnopai neh a boh tih a duek sak atah hlang aka ngawn te duek rhoe duek saeh.
17 'And if with a stone [in] the hand, wherewith he dieth, he hath smitten him, and he dieth, he [is] a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.
Aka ngawn loh a kut dongkah lungto neh a duek la a thuk tih a duek atah hlang aka ngawn amah te duek rhoe duek saeh.
18 'Or with a wooden instrument [in] the hand, wherewith he dieth, he hath smitten him, and he dieth, he [is] a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.
Hlang aka ngawn loh a kut kah thing hnopai nen khaw a duek la a boh tih a duek atah hlang aka ngawn amah te duek rhoe duek saeh.
19 'The redeemer of blood himself doth put the murderer to death; in his coming against him he doth put him to death.
Thii aka suk amah loh hlang aka ngawn te duek sak saeh. Anih te amah neh a hum uh vaengah amah loh anih te duek sak saeh.
20 'And if in hatred he thrust him through, or hath cast [anything] at him by lying in wait, and he dieth;
Hmuhuetnah neh a thaek, rhongngolnah neh anih te a dae tih a duek atah,
21 or in enmity he hath smitten him with his hand, and he dieth; the smiter is certainly put to death; he [is] a murderer; the redeemer of blood doth put the murderer to death in his coming against him.
thunkha thunhling la anih te a kut neh a thoek tih a duek atah aka thoek te duek rhoe duek saeh. Hlang aka ngawn thii aka suk amah neh a hum uh vaengah hlang aka ngawn te duek sak saeh.
22 'And if, in an instant, without enmity, he hath thrust him through, or hath cast at him any instrument, without lying in wait;
Tedae thunkha thunhling pawt ah buengrhuet la a thaek akhaw, rhongngolnah om pawt ah khaw, hnopai khat khat neh anih te a dae khaming,
23 or with any stone wherewith he dieth, without seeing, and causeth [it] to fall upon him, and he dieth, and he [is] not his enemy, nor seeking his evil;
lungto nen khaw a duek sak khaming. A hmuh pawt vaengah anih te a tlak thil tih a duek oeh atah anih te thunkha aih pawt tih a boethae a tlap aih moenih.
24 then have the company judged between the smiter and the redeemer of blood, by these judgments.
Te dongah rhaengpuei loh hlang aka ngawn neh thii phu aka suk laklo ah he kah laitloeknah bangla laitloek uh saeh.
25 'And the company have delivered the man-slayer out of the hand of the redeemer of blood, and the company have caused him to turn back unto the city of his refuge, whither he hath fled, and he hath dwelt in it till the death of the chief priest, who hath been anointed with the holy oil.
Te vaengah rhaengpuei loh hlang aka ngawn te thii phu aka suk kut lamloh huul saeh. Rhaengpuei loh anih te a hlipyingnah khopuei la thak uh saeh lamtah rhaelrham saeh. Tedae Hmuencim kah situi neh a koelh khosoih ham a dueknah rhi hil tah te ah te khosa saeh.
26 'And if the man-slayer at all go out [from] the border of the city of his refuge whither he fleeth,
Tedae hlang aka ngawn te a hlipyingnah khopuei la rhaelrham tih khorhi te a poe khaw a poe khaming.
27 and the redeemer of blood hath found him at the outside of the border of the city of his refuge, and the redeemer of blood hath slain the man-slayer, blood is not for him;
Te vaengah anih te thii aka suk loh a hlipyingnah khopuei rhi kah vongvoel ah a hmuh tih thii aka suk loh a ngawn atah aka ngawn te a taengah thii long boel saeh.
28 for in the city of his refuge he doth dwell till the death of the chief priest; and after the death of the chief priest doth the man-slayer turn back unto the city of his possession.
Khosoih ham a dueknah rhi hil tah a hlipyingnah khopuei ah khosa saeh. Tedae khosoih ham a dueknah hnukah tah hlang aka ngawn te amah kah khohut khohmuen la mael saeh.
29 'And these things have been to you for a statute of judgment to your generations, in all your dwellings:
He rhoek he nangmih ham neh na cadilcahma ham khaw na tolrhum boeih ah laitloeknah khosing la om saeh.
30 whoso smiteth a person, by the mouth of witnesses doth [one] slay the murderer; and one witness doth not testify against a person — to die.
Hinglu aka ngawn boeih tah laipai olka kah bangla hlang aka ngawn te ngawn saeh. Tedae laipai pakhat bueng neh hinglu te duek sak ham doo boel saeh.
31 'And ye take no atonement for the life of a murderer who [is] condemned — to die, for he is certainly put to death;
Hlang aka ngawn kah hinglu ham tlansum te doe uh boeh. Amah a duek hamla aka halang te tah duek rhoe duek saeh.
32 and ye take no atonement for him to flee unto the city of his refuge, to turn back to dwell in the land, until the death of the priest.
Khosoih a dueknah rhi hil tah a hlipyingnah khopuei la rhaelrham ham neh khohmuen kah khosa la mael sak ham tlansum te lo boeh.
33 'And ye profane not the land which ye [are] in, for blood profaneth the land; as to the land, it is not pardoned for blood which is shed in it except by the blood of him who sheddeth it;
Thii loh khohmuen te a poeih coeng dongah a khuiah nangmih loh khohmuen te poeih uh boeh. A soah thii te a long coeng dongah thii aka long sak kah thii nen pawt atah khohmuen ham a dawth thai moenih.
34 and ye defile not the land in which ye are dwelling, in the midst of which I do tabernacle, for I Jehovah do tabernacle in the midst of the sons of Israel.'
A khuiah kho aka sa nangmih loh te kah khohmuen te poeih uh boeh. Kai he a khui ah kho ka sak. Kai Yahweh he Israel ca rhoek a laklung ah kho ka sak.
