Ƙidaya 35
1 A filayen Mowab, wajen Urdun, ɗaura da Yeriko, Ubangiji ya yi magana da Musa ya ce,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan of Jericho, saying,
2 “Ka umarci Isra’ilawa su ba wa Lawiyawa garuruwan da za su zauna a ciki daga cikin gādon da Isra’ilawa za su mallaka. A kuma ba su wurin kiwo kewaye da garuruwan.
Command the children of Israel, that of the inheritance of their possession they give unto the Levites cities to dwell in; and a suburb for the cities round about them shall ye give unto the Levites.
3 Sa’an nan za su kasance da garuruwan da za su zauna, su sami fili, da kuma za su yi kiwon garkensu na shanu da tumaki da kuma sauran dabbobinsu.
And the cities shall they have to dwell in, and their suburbs shall be for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.
4 “Wuraren kiwo a kewayen garuruwan da za a ba wa Lawiyawa, girmansu zai zama mai fāɗin kamu dubu ɗaya daga katangar garin.
And the suburbs of the cities that ye shall give unto the Levites shall be from the walls of the city outward, a thousand cubits round about.
5 A bayan garin, ka auna kamu dubu biyu a wajen gabas, kamu dubu biyu a wajen yamma, kamu dubu biyu wajen kudu, da kuma kamu dubu uku wajen arewa, a bar garin a tsakiya. Za su kasance da wannan a matsayin wurin kiwo na garuruwan.
And ye shall measure, without the city, the east side two thousand cubits, and the south side two thousand cubits, and the west side two thousand cubits, and the north side two thousand cubits, and the city shall be in the midst: they shall have this as suburbs of the cities.
6 “A cikin biranen da za a ba Lawiyawa, shida daga cikin garuruwan za su zama biranen mafaka, inda wanda ya kashe mutum zai gudu yă je. Ban da wannan, a ba su waɗansu garuruwa arba’in da biyu.
And [among] the cities that ye shall give unto the Levites [shall be] the six cities of refuge, which ye shall appoint for the manslayer, that he may flee thither, — and besides them ye shall give forty-two cities:
7 Duka-duka dai a ba Lawiyawa garuruwa arba’in da takwas, tare da wuraren kiwonsu.
all the cities that ye shall give to the Levites shall be forty-eight cities, they and their suburbs.
8 Garuruwan da za ku ba wa Lawiyawa daga ƙasar da Isra’ilawa suka mallaka, za a ba da su bisa girman gādon kowace kabila. Ka karɓi garuruwa masu yawa daga kabilar da take da garuruwa masu yawa, amma kaɗan daga kabilar da ba ta da garuruwa masu yawa.”
And the cities which ye shall give shall be of the possession of the children of Israel: from them that have much ye shall take much, and from them that have little ye shall take little; each one according to his inheritance which he will inherit shall give of his cities to the Levites.
9 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
10 “Ka yi magana da Isra’ilawa, ka ce musu, ‘Sa’ad da kuka haye Urdun zuwa Kan’ana,
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye pass over the Jordan into the land of Canaan,
11 ku zaɓi waɗansu garuruwan da za su zama biranen mafakarku, inda wanda ya kashe mutum cikin kuskure zai iya gudu zuwa.
then ye shall appoint for yourselves cities: cities of refuge shall they be for you; that a manslayer may flee thither, who without intent smiteth a person mortally.
12 Za su zama wuraren mafaka daga hannun mai bin hakki, don kada a kashe mai kisankai, tun ba a kai shi gaban shari’a, a gaban taron jama’a ba.
And ye shall have these cities for refuge from the avenger; that the manslayer die not, until he have stood before the assembly in judgment.
13 Waɗannan garuruwa shida da aka bayar za su zama biranen mafakarku.
And the cities that ye shall give shall be six cities of refuge for you.
14 A ba da uku a wannan gefe na Urdun, a kuma ba da uku a Kan’ana, su zama biranen mafaka.
Three cities shall ye give on this side of the Jordan, and three cities shall ye give in the land of Canaan; they shall be cities of refuge.
15 Waɗannan garuruwa shida za su zama wurin mafaka wa Isra’ilawa, baƙi da duk sauran mutanen da suke zama a cikinsu, saboda duk wanda ya kashe mutum cikin kuskure yă iya gudu zuwa.
For the children of Israel, and for the stranger, and for the sojourner among them shall these six cities be a refuge, that one who smiteth a person mortally without intent may flee thither.
16 “‘In wani ya bugi wani da makami na ƙarfe har ya mutu, to, shi mai kisankai ne; sai a kashe mai kisankan nan.
And if he have smitten him with an instrument of iron, so that he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall certainly be put to death.
17 Ko kuwa in wani yana riƙe da dutsen da ya isa yă kashe mutum a hannunsa, ya kuma harbi wani da dutsen har ya mutu, to, shi mai kisankai ne, sai a kashe mai kisankan nan.
And if he have smitten him with a stone from the hand, wherewith one may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall certainly be put to death.
18 Ko kuwa wani yana da makami na itace a hannunsa da ya isa yă kashe mutum, ya kuma bugi wani da shi har ya mutu, shi ma mai kisankai ne, sai a kashe mai kisankan nan.
Or if he have smitten him with an instrument of wood, in the hand, wherewith one may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall certainly be put to death;
19 Sai mai bin hakkin jinin yă kashe mai kisankan, sa’ad da ya sadu da mai kisankan, sai yă kashe shi.
the avenger of blood, he shall put the murderer to death; when he meeteth him, he shall put him to death.
20 In saboda ƙiyayya, mutum ya laɓe, ya soke wani, ko ya jefe shi da wani abu da gangan har ya mutu,
And if he thrust at him out of hatred, or hurl at him intentionally, so that he die,
21 ko kuwa saboda ƙiyayya ya naushe shi har ya mutu, sai a kashe wannan mutumin da ya yi haka; shi mai kisankai ne. Sai mai bin hakkin jini yă kashe mai kisankan in ya same shi.
or from enmity smite him with his hand, so that he die, he that smote him shall certainly be put to death; he is a murderer: the avenger of blood shall put the murderer to death, when he meeteth him. —
22 “‘Amma in cikin tsautsayi ne ya soke shi, ba don ƙiyayya ba, ko kuma ya jefe shi, ba da gangan ba,
But if he have thrust at him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him anything unintentionally,
23 ko kuwa bai gan shi ba, ya jefa dutsen da zai kashe shi a kansa, ya kuwa mutu, to, da yake shi ba abokin gābansa ba ne, bai kuma yi nufi yă ji masa ba,
or [have smitten him] with any stone wherewith one may die, without seeing him, and have cast it upon him so that he die, and he was not his enemy, neither sought his harm:
24 dole taro su yi hukunci tsakanin mai laifin, da mai bin hakkin jini bisa waɗannan ƙa’idodi.
then the assembly shall judge between the smiter and the avenger of blood according to these judgments;
25 Dole taro su kāre wanda ake zargi da kisa, daga mai bin hakkin jini. Su mai da shi birnin mafaka inda ya gudu ya tafi. Dole yă kasance a can sai mutuwar babban firist, wanda aka shafe da mai mai tsarki.
and the assembly shall rescue the manslayer out of the hand of the avenger of blood, and the assembly shall restore him to the city of his refuge, whither he had fled; and he shall abide in it until the death of the high-priest, who was anointed with the holy oil.
26 “‘Amma in wanda ake zargin ya kuskura ya fita, ya kai iyakar birnin mafaka wadda ya gudu ya je,
But if the manslayer shall in any way come outside the limits of the city of his refuge whither he hath fled,
27 idan mai bin hakkin jinin ya same shi a bayan gari, mai bin hakkin jinin zai iya kashe mai kisankai ɗin ba tare da wani laifi ba.
and the avenger of blood find him outside the limits of his city of refuge, and the avenger of blood kill the manslayer, there shall be no blood-guiltiness upon him;
28 Dole wanda ake zargin, yă kasance a birninsa na mafaka sai bayan mutuwa babban firist; sai bayan mutuwar babban firist ne kawai zai iya komo ga mallakarsa.
for the manslayer should have remained in the city of his refuge until the death of the high-priest; but after the death of the high-priest he may return into the land of his possession.
29 “‘Waɗannan su ne za su zama ƙa’idodin da za ku kasance da su, a dukan tsararraki masu zuwa.
And this shall be unto you a statute of right throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
30 “‘Kowa da ya kashe wani, za a kashe shi a matsayin mai kisankai, bisa ga shaidar shaidu. Amma kada a kashe wani bisa ga shaidar mutum ɗaya.
Whoever shall smite a person mortally, at the mouth of witnesses shall the murderer be put to death; but one witness shall not testify against a person to cause him to die.
31 “‘Kada a karɓi fansa don ran wanda ya yi kisankai, wanda ya cancanci mutuwa. Lalle ne a kashe shi.
And ye shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, who is guilty of death, but he shall certainly be put to death.
32 “‘Kada a karɓi fansa saboda wanda ya tsere zuwa birnin mafaka don yă koma yă zauna gidansa tun babban firist bai rasu ba.
And ye shall take no satisfaction for him that hath fled to the city of his refuge, that he should come again to dwell in the land, until the death of the priest.
33 “‘Kada ku ƙazantar da ƙasar da kuke zama a ciki. Zub da jini yakan ƙazantar da ƙasa, ba a kuma iya yin kafara saboda wannan ƙasa da aka zub da jini, sai dai ta wurin jinin mutumin da ya zub da jinin.
And ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are; for blood, it polluteth the land; and there can be no atonement made for the land, for the blood that hath been shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.
34 Kada ku ƙazantar da ƙasar da kuke zama, wadda ni kuma nake zama a ciki, gama Ni Ubangiji, ina zama a cikin Isra’ilawa.’”
And ye shall not defile the land that ye inhabit, in the midst whereof I dwell; for I am Jehovah who dwell in the midst of the children of Israel.
