Kanawailua 19

1 A IA hoopau o Iehova kou Akua i na lahuikanaka, no lakou ka aina a Iehova kou Akua e haawi mai ai nou, a lilo ko lakou wahi nou, a e noho iho oe ma ko lakou kulanakauhale, a maloko hoi o ko lakou mau hale;

When the LORD thy God shall cut off the nations, whose land the LORD thy God giveth thee, and thou dost succeed them, and dwell in their cities, and in their houses;

2 Alaila e hookaawale oe i na kulanakauhale ekolu nou iwaena o kou aina a Iehova kou Akua e haawi lilo mai ai nou.

thou shalt separate three cities for thee in the midst of thy land, which the LORD thy GOD giveth thee to possess it.

3 E hoomakaukau i alanui nou, a o kou aina a Iehova kou Akua i hoolilo mai ai nou, o kau ia e mahele i na mokuna ekolu, i holo ai na pepehi kanaka a pau ilaila.

Thou shalt prepare thee the way, and divide the borders of thy land, which the LORD thy God causeth thee to inherit, into three parts, that every manslayer may flee thither.

4 Eia ke ano o ka pepehi kanaka e holo ai ilaila i ola ia: o ka mea pepehi i kona hoalauna me ka ike ole, aole ia i inaina aku ia ia mamua;

And this is the case of the manslayer, that shall flee thither and live: whoso killeth his neighbour unawares, and hated him not in time past;

5 A o ka mea e hele aku i ka ululaau me kona hoalauna e kua laau, a hahau iho kona lima me ke koilipi e oki i ka laau, a hemo aku la ke koilipi mai ke au aku, a pa i kona hoalauna a make ia, e holo aku ia i kekahi o ia mau kulanakauhale, a ola;

as when a man goeth into the forest with his neighbour to hew wood, and his hand fetcheth a stroke with the axe to cut down the tree, and the head slippeth from the helve, and lighteth upon his neighbour, that he die; he shall flee unto one of these cities and live;

6 O hahai auanei ka hoopai koko mahope o ka pepehi kanaka i kona wa e ukiuki ai kona naau, no ka mea, ua loihi ke ala, a pepehi ia ia; aole nae ona hewa e make ai, no ka mea, aole ia i inaina aku ia ia mamua.

lest the avenger of blood pursue the manslayer, while his heart is hot, and overtake him, because the way is long, and smite him mortally; whereas he was not deserving of death, inasmuch as he hated him not in time past.

7 No ia mea, ke kauoha aku nei au ia oe, i ka i ana'ku, E hookaawale nou i na kulanakauhale ekolu.

Wherefore I command thee, saying: 'Thou shalt separate three cities for thee.'

8 Ina e hoopalahalaha o Iehova kou Akua i kou mokuna e like me kana i hoohiki ai i kou mau kupuna, a haawi ia oe i ka aina a pau ana i olelo ni e haawi i kou mau kupuna:

And if the LORD thy God enlarge thy border, as He hath sworn unto thy fathers, and give thee all the land which He promised to give unto thy fathers —

9 Ina paha oe e malama i keia mau kauoha a pau e hana aku ia mea a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oe i keia la, e aloha aku in Iehova kou Akua, a e hele ma kona aoao i na la a pau, alaila e hookaawale oe nou i na kulanakauhale hou ekolu me kela mau mea ekolu:

if thou shalt keep all this commandment to do it, which I command thee this day, to love the LORD thy God, and to walk ever in His ways — then shalt thou add three cities more for thee, beside these three;

10 I ole e hookaheia ke koko hala ole iloko o kou aina a Iehova kou Akua i hoolilo mai ai nou, a maluna ou ke koko.

that innocent blood be not shed in the midst of thy land, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance, and so blood be upon thee.

11 Aka, ina e inaina aku kekahi kanaka i kona hoalauna, a halua ia ia, a popoi ia ia, a hahau ia ia a make ia, a holo aku ia iloko o kekahi o keia mau kulanakauhale:

But if any man hate his neighbour, and lie in wait for him, and rise up against him, and smite him mortally that he die; and he flee into one of these cities;

12 Alaila e hoouna aku na lunakahiko o kona kulanakauhale, a e lawe ia ia mai laila mai. a haawi aku ia ia iloko o ka lima o ka mea hoopai koko, i make ai oia.

then the elders of his city shall send and fetch him thence, and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die.

13 Mai minamina kou maka ia ia; aka, e huikala aku oe i ke koko hala ole mai ka Iseraela aku, i pomaikai ai oe.

Thine eye shall not pity him, but thou shalt put away the blood of the innocent from Israel, that it may go well with thee.

14 Mai hoonee aku oe i ka palena aina o kou hoalauna a ka poe kahiko i hoonoho ai ma kou aina, au i loaa ai ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua e hoolilo mai ai nou.

Thou shalt not remove thy neighbour's landmark, which they of old time have set, in thine inheritance which thou shalt inherit, in the land that the LORD thy God giveth thee to possess it.

15 Mai ku mai ka mea hoike hookahi i ke kanaka, no kekahi hala, a no kekahi hewa i na hewa a pau ana i hana hewa ai: ma ka waha o na mea hoike elua, a o na mea hoike ekolu paha, e hookupaaia'i ia mea.

One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth; at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall a matter be establishment

16 Ina paha e ku mai ka mea hoike hewa i kekahi kanaka, a hoike wahahee ia ia;

If an unrighteous witness rise up against any man to bear perverted witness against him;

17 Alaila, o laua, na mea hoopaapaa, e ku imua o Iehova, imua o na kahuna a me na lunakanawai e noho ana ia manawa;

then both the men, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before the LORD, before the priests and the judges that shall be in those days.

18 A e imi pono na lunakanawai: aia hoi, he wahahee ka mea nana i hoike, a ua hoike wahahee i kona hoahanau:

And the judges shall inquire diligently; and, behold, if the witness be a false witness, and hath testified falsely against his brother;

19 Alaila e hana aku oukou ia ia e like me kana i manao ai e hana aku i kona hoahanau: a e lawe aku oe i ka hewa mai ou aku la.

then shall ye do unto him, as he had purposed to do unto his brother; so shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.

20 A e hoolohe ka poe i koe, a makau hoi, aole e hana hou lakou e like me keia hewa iwaena o oukou.

And those that remain shall hear, and fear, and shall henceforth commit no more any such evil in the midst of thee.

21 Mai minamina kou maka; he ola no ke ola; he maka no ka maka; he niho no ka niho; he lima no ka lima; he wawae no ka wawae.

And thine eye shall not pity: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
