< Iosua 20 >

1 OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Iosua, i mai la,
And he spoke Yahweh to Joshua saying.
2 E olelo aku oe i na mamo a Iseraela, e i aku, E hookaawale oukou i kekahi mau kulanakauhale, i puuhonua no oukou, me a'u i olelo aku ai ia oukou, ma ka lima o Mose;
Speak to [the] people of Israel saying assign for yourselves [the] cities of refuge which I spoke to you by [the] hand of Moses.
3 I pee aku ilaila ka pepehi kanaka, ka mea nana i pepehi aku me ka manao ole, aole oia i ike: a no oukou keia mau wahi, i puuhonua, i pakele ai i ka mea hoopai koko.
To flee there towards a killer [who] strikes down a person by inadvertence with not knowledge and they will become for you a refuge from [the] avenger of blood.
4 Aia pee aku oia i kekahi o keia mau kulanakauhale, a e ku iluna oia ma ka ipuka o ua kulanakauhale la, a e olelo aku i na pepeiao o ka poe lunakahiko o ua kulanakauhale la i kona mea, e hoonoho lakou ia ia ma ke kulanakauhale me lakou, a e haawi lakou ia ia i wahi e noho pu ai oia me lakou.
And he will flee to one - of the cities these and he will stand [the] entrance of [the] gate of the city and he will speak in [the] ears of ([the] elders of the city *LA(bh)*) that words his and they will gather him the city towards to themselves and they will give to him a place and he will dwell with them.
5 A ina hahai ka mea hoopai koko ia ia, aole lakou e haawi i ka mea pepehi kanaka i kona lima; no ka mea, ua pepehi oia i kona hoanoho me ka ike ole; aole inaina oia ia ia mamua.
And if he will pursue [the] avenger of blood after him and not they will deliver up the killer in hand his for with not knowledge he struck neighbor his and not [was] hating he him from yesterday [the] third day.
6 A e noho oia ma na kulanakauhale la, a hiki i ka wa o kona ku ana imua o ke anaina no ka hookolokolo ana, a hiki i ka wa o ka make ana o ke kahuna nui o ia mau la; alaila, e hoi ua kanaka pepehi la, e hele oia i kona kulanakauhale, i kona hale iho, a i ke kulanakauhale ana i haalele ai.
And he will dwell - in the city that until stands he before the congregation for judgment until [the] death of the priest great who he will be in the days those then - he will return the killer and he will go to own city his and to own house his to the city where he fled from there.
7 A hookapu iho la lakou ia Kedesa, ma Galilaia ma ka mauna o Napetali, a me Sekema ma ka mauna o Eperaima, a me Kiriatareba, oia o Heberona ma ka mauna o Iuda.
And they set apart Kedesh in Galilee in [the] hill country of Naphtali and Shechem in [the] hill country of Ephraim and Kiriath Arba that [is] Hebron in [the] hill country of Judah.
8 A i kela kapa o Ioredane ma Ieriko, ma ka hikina, hookapu iho la lakou ia Bezera, ma ka waonahele ma ka papu, i ka aina o ka ohana a Reubena, a me Ramota, ma Gileada, i ka aina o ka ohana a Gada, a me Golana, ma Basana, i ka aina o ka ohana a Manase.
And from [the] other side of [the] Jordan of Jericho east-ward they assigned Bezer in the wilderness in the plain from [the] tribe of Reuben and Ramoth in Gilead from [the] tribe of Gad and (Golan *Q(K)*) in Bashan from [the] tribe of Manasseh.
9 E lilo no keia mau kulanakauhale i puuhonua no na mamo a Iseraela a pau, a me ka malihini e noho pu ana mawaena o lakou, i pee aku ai ilaila kela mea keia mea i pepehi kanaka me ka manao ole, i make ole oia i ka lima o ka mea hoopai koko, a hiki i ka wa o kona ku ana imua o ke anainakanaka.
These they were [the] cities of appointing for all - [the] people of Israel and for the sojourner who sojourns in midst of them to flee there towards any [one who] strikes down a person by inadvertence and not he will die by [the] hand of [the] avenger of blood until stands he before the congregation.
