Na Helu 35

1 OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Mose ma na papu o Moaba, ma Ioredane o Ieriko, i mai la,

And YHWH speaks to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan, [near] Jericho, saying,

2 E kauoha aku oe i na mamo a Iseraela, e haawi aku lakou i kekahi aina o lakou e ili ana, no na Levi, i na kulanakauhale e noho ai; a e haawi hoi no na Levi i na kula o na kulanakauhale a puni.

“Command the sons of Israel, and they have given to the Levites cities to inhabit from the inheritance of their possession; you also give [the] outskirt around them, of the cities, to the Levites.

3 A no lakou na kulanakauhale e noho ai iloko; a o na kula a puni, no ka lakou holoholona ia, no ko lakou waiwai, a no ko lakou mau mea ola a pau.

And the cities have been for them to inhabit, and their outskirts are for their livestock, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.

4 A o na kula o na kulanakauhale a oukou e haawi aku ai no na Levi, mai ka papohaku o ke kulanakauhale mawaho aku, i hookahi tausani na kubita.

And the outskirts of the cities which you give to the Levites [are], from the wall of the city and outside, one thousand cubits around.

5 A e ana oukou mai waho aku o ke kulanakauhale ma ka aoao hikina, i elua tausani kubita, a ma ka aoao hema i elua tausani kubita, a ma ka aoao komohana i elua tausani kubita, a ma ka aoao akau i elua tausani kubita; a mawaena konu ko kulanakauhale: oia no ia lakou na kela o na kulanakauhale.

And you 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 the outskirts of the cities to them.

6 A no na kulanakauhale a oukou e haawi aku ai no na Levi, he aono mau kulanakauhale e lilo i mau puuhonua, kahi a oukou e haawi ai no ka pepehi kanaka, e holo ai ia ilaila; a e haawi hou aku oukou i na kulanakauhale keu he kanaha kumamalua.

And the cities which you give to the Levites [are] the six cities of refuge, which you give for the fleeing there of the manslayer, and besides them you give forty-two cities;

7 O na kulanakauhale a pau a oukou e haawi aku ai no na Levi, he kanahakumamawalu: o lakou a me na kula o lakou.

all the cities which you give to the Levites [are] forty-eight cities, them and their outskirts.

8 A o na kulanakauhale a oukou e haawi aku ai, noloko mai ia o ka aina o na mamo a Iseraela; noloko mai o ka mea nui, e hoonui aku oukou, a noloko mai o ka mea uuku, e houuku iho no oukou: o kela mea keia mea ke haawi i kekahi mau kulanakauhale ona no na Levi, e like me ka aina e ili mai ana nona.

And the cities which you give [are] from the possession of the sons of Israel; from the many you multiply, and from the few you diminish; each, according to his inheritance which they inherit, gives to the Levites from his cities.”

9 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,

And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

10 E olelo aku oe i na mamo a Iseraela, e i aku ia lakou, Aia hiki aku oukou ma kela aoao o Ioredane iloko o ka aina o Kanaana;

“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: When you are passing over the Jordan to the land of Canaan,

11 Alaila, e hoolilo oukou i na kulanakauhalo, i kulanakauhale puuhonua no oukou, i holo aku ai ka mea pepehi kanaka ilaila, ka mea pepehi naaupo i ke kanaka.

and have prepared cities for yourselves—they are cities of refuge to you—then a manslayer, striking a person through ignorance, has fled there,

12 A e lilo lakou i mau kulanakauhale puuhonua no oukou, mai ka mea hoopai aku; i make ole ai ka mea pepehi kanaka, a ku ia imua o ke anainakauaka no ka hookolokolo ana.

and the cities have been for a refuge to you from the redeemer, and the manslayer does not die until his standing before the congregation for judgment.

13 No keia mau kulanakauhale a oukou o haawi aku ai, e lilo na mea eono i mau puuhonua no oukou.

As for the cities which you give, six [are] cities of refuge to you;

14 E haawi aku oukou i ekolu mau kulanakauhale ma keia aoao o Ioredane, a me na kulanakauhale ekolu ka oukou e haawi aku ai ma ka aina o Kanaana, i mau kulanakauhale puuhonua.

three of the cities you give from beyond the Jordan, and three of the cities you give in the land of Canaan; they are cities of refuge.

15 O keia mau kulanakauhale eono, he mau puuhonua ia no na mamo a Iseraela, a no ke kanaka e, a no ka malihini iwaena o lakou; i holo aku ai ilaila ka mea pepehi naaupo i kekahi kanaka.

For sons of Israel, and for a sojourner, and for a settler in their midst, are these six cities for a refuge, for the fleeing there of anyone striking a person through ignorance.

16 Ina e pepehi aku oia ia ia me ka mea hao, a make ia, he pepehi kanaka oia; he oiaio no, e make ka pepehi kanaka.

And if he has struck him with an instrument of iron, and he dies, he [is] a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.

17 Ina hoi e pepehi aku oia ia ia me ka pohaku nouia, ka mea e make ai ia, a ua make no kela, he pepehi kanaka oia; he oiaio no, e make ka pepehi kanaka.

And if he has struck him with a stone [in] the hand, with which he could die, and he dies, he [is] a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.

18 Ina hoi o pepehi kela ia ia me ka laau ma ka lima, i mea e make ai oia, a ua make no ia, hepepehi kanaka no kela: he oiaio no, e make ka pepehi kanaka.

Or [if] he has struck him with a wooden instrument [in] the hand, with which he could die, and he dies, he [is] a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.

19 Na ka mea hoopai koko, nana no e pepehi aku i ka mea pepehi kanaka: i kona wa e halawai aku ai me ia, nana no ia o pepehi.

The redeemer of blood puts the murderer to death himself; in his coming against him he puts him to death.

20 Ina paha e hookulai iho kekahi ia ia me ka inaina, a e hoolei aku paha i kekahi mea maluna ona me ka hoohalua nona, a make no ia;

And if he pushes him in hatred, or has cast [anything] at him by lying in wait, and he dies,

21 A ina e pepehi aku kona lima ia ia me ka inaina, a make ia; o ka mea pepehi aku, he oiaio no, e make no ia: no ka mea, he pepehi kanaka oia: na ka mea hoopai koko, nana no e pepehi i ua pepehi kanaka la, i kona halawai ana me ia.

or he has struck him with his hand in enmity, and he dies, the striker is certainly put to death; he [is] a murderer; the redeemer of blood puts the murderer to death in his coming against him.

22 Aka, ina e pepehi wale aku ia me ka inaina ole, a ua hoolei aku paha i kekahi mea maluna ona, me ka hoohalua ole;

And if, in an instant, without enmity, he has pushed him, or has cast any instrument at him without lying in wait,

23 A i ka pohaku paha e make ai ke kanaka, me ka ike ole aku, hoolei aku maluna ona, a make ia; aole no ia o kona enemi, aole hoi ia i manao e hana ino aku ia ia:

or with any stone with which he could die, without seeing, indeed, causes [it] to fall on him, and he dies, and he [is] not his enemy, nor seeking his evil,

24 Alaila, e hookolokolo ke anainakanaka mawaena o ka mea pepohi a me ka mea hoopai koko, e like me keia mau kanawai:

then the congregation has judged between the striker and the redeemer of blood by these judgments.

25 A na ke anainakanaka no e hoopakele i ka pepehi kanaka mailoko ae o ka lima o ka mea hoopai koko, a na ke anainakanaka ia e hoihoi aku i ka puuhonua i kahi e holo aku ai oia: a malaila ia e noho ai a make ke kahuna nui, ka mea i poniia i ka aila laa.

And the congregation has delivered the manslayer out of the hand of the redeemer of blood, and the congregation has caused him to return to the city of his refuge, to where he has fled, and he has dwelt in it until the death of the chief priest who has been anointed with the holy oil.

26 Aka, ina e puka aku ka pepehi kanaka i kekahi manawa mawaho o na palena o ke kulanakauhalo o kona puuhonua, kahi ana i holo ai;

And if the manslayer indeed goes out [from] the border of the city of his refuge to where he flees,

27 A loaa oia i ka hoopai koko mawaho o ka palena o ke kulanakauhale o kona puuhonua, a pepehi ka hoopai koko i ua pepehi kanaka la, aole e pili kona koko ia ia;

and the redeemer of blood has found him at the outside of the border of the city of his refuge, and the redeemer of blood has slain the manslayer, blood [is] not [reckoned] to him;

28 No ka mea, o kona pono no e noho iloko o ke kulanakauhale o kona puuhonua, a hiki i ka make ana o ke kahuna nui: aka, mahope iho o ka make ana o ke kahuna nui, e hoi hou no ka pepehi kanaka i ka aina o kona noho ana.

for he dwells in the city of his refuge until the death of the chief priest; and after the death of the chief priest the manslayer turns back to the city of his possession.

29 A e lilo keia mau mea no oukou i kanawai hoopono no ko oukou mau hanauna ma na wahi a pau a oukou e noho ai.

And these things have been for a statute of judgment to you throughout your generations, in all your dwellings.

30 O ka mea pepehi i kekahi kanaka, e make no ia ma ka waha o na mea hoike: aole no e make ke kanaka ma ka mea hoike hookahi wale no.

Whoever strikes a person, by the mouth of witnesses [one] slays the murderer; and one witness does not testify against a person to cause [him] to die.

31 Eia hoi kekahi, aole oukou e lawe i uku panai no ke ola o ka mea pepehi kanaka, o ka mea i hewa e make ai: aka, e oiaio no, e make ua kanaka la.

And you take no atonement for the life of a murderer who [is] condemned to die, for he is certainly put to death;

32 Aole hoi oukou e lawe i uku panai, no ka mea i holo aku i ke kulanakauhale o kona puuhonua, i hoi hou aku ai ia e noho i ka aina, a hiki i ka make ana o ke kahuna.

and you take no atonement for him [who had] to flee to the city of his refuge, to return to dwell in the land, until the death of the priest.

33 Pela oukou e hoohaumia ole ai i ka aina a oukou e noho ai: no ka mea, o ke koko, oia ke hoohaumia i ka aina; aole e hiki ke huikalaia ka aina i ke koko i hookaheia maloko, aia wale no ma ke koko o ka mea nana ia i hookahe.

And you do not profane the land which you [are] in, for blood profanes the land; as for the land, it is not pardoned for blood which is shed in it except by the blood of him who sheds it;

34 Nolaila, mai hoohaumia oukou i ka aina a oukou e noho ai, kahi hoi a'u e noho ai; no ka mea, owau o Iehova e noho nei iwaena o ka poe mamo a Iseraela.

and you do not defile the land in which you are dwelling, in the midst of which I dwell, for I, YHWH, dwell in the midst of the sons of Israel.”
