Na Helu 35
1 OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Mose ma na papu o Moaba, ma Ioredane o Ieriko, i mai la,
The LORD spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at 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 children of Israel to give to the Levites cities to dwell in out of their inheritance. You shall give pasture lands for the cities around them 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.
They shall have the cities to dwell in. Their pasture lands shall be for their livestock, and for their possessions, and for all their animals.
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.
“The pasture lands of the cities, which you shall give to the Levites, shall be from the wall of the city and outward one thousand cubits around it.
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.
You shall measure outside of the city for the east side two thousand cubits, and for the south side two thousand cubits, and for the west side two thousand cubits, and for the north side two thousand cubits, the city being in the middle. This shall be the pasture lands of their cities.
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.
“The cities which you shall give to the Levites, they shall be the six cities of refuge, which you shall give for the man slayer to flee to. Besides them you shall 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 shall give to the Levites shall be forty-eight cities together with their pasture lands.
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.
Concerning the cities which you shall give of the possession of the children of Israel, from the many you shall take many, and from the few you shall take few. Everyone according to his inheritance which he inherits shall give some of his cities to the Levites.”
9 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
The LORD spoke 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 children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When you pass over the Jordan into 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.
then you shall appoint for yourselves cities to be cities of refuge for you, that the man slayer who kills any person unwittingly may flee 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.
The cities shall be for your refuge from the avenger, that the man slayer not die until he stands 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.
The cities which you shall give shall be for you six cities of refuge.
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.
You shall give three cities beyond the Jordan, and you shall give three cities in the land of Canaan. They shall be 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.
These six cities shall be refuge for the children of Israel, for the stranger, and for the foreigner living among them, that everyone who kills any person unwittingly may flee there.
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.
“‘But if he struck him with an instrument of iron, so that he died, he is a murderer. The murderer shall surely be 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.
If he struck him with a stone in the hand, by which a man may die, and he died, he is a murderer. The murderer shall surely be 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 struck him with a weapon of wood in the hand, by which a man may die, and he died, he is a murderer. The murderer shall surely be 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 avenger of blood shall himself put the murderer to death. When he meets him, he shall put 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;
If he shoved him out of hatred, or hurled something at him while lying in wait, so that he died,
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 in hostility struck him with his hand, so that he died, he who struck him shall surely be put to death. He is a murderer. The avenger of blood shall put the murderer to death when he meets 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;
“‘But if he shoved him suddenly without hostility, or hurled on him anything 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, by which a man may die, not seeing him, and cast it on him so that he died, and he was not his enemy and not seeking his harm,
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 shall judge between the striker and the avenger of blood according to these ordinances.
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.
The congregation shall deliver the man slayer out of the hand of the avenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore him to his city of refuge, where he had fled. He shall dwell therein until the death of the high priest, who was 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;
“‘But if the man slayer shall at any time go beyond the border of his city of refuge 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 avenger of blood finds him outside of the border of his city of refuge, and the avenger of blood kills the man slayer, he shall not be guilty of blood,
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.
because he should have remained in his city of refuge until the death of the high priest. But after the death of the high priest, the man slayer shall return into the land 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.
“‘These things shall be for a statute and ordinance 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 kills any person, the murderer shall be slain based on the testimony of witnesses; but one witness shall not testify alone against any person so that he dies.
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.
“‘Moreover you shall take no ransom for the life of a murderer who is guilty of death. He shall surely be 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.
“‘You shall take no ransom for him who has fled to his city of refuge, that he may come again to dwell in the land before 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.
“‘So you shall not pollute the land where you live; for blood pollutes the land. No atonement can be made for the land for the blood that is shed in it, but by the blood of him who shed 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.
You shall not defile the land which you inhabit, where I dwell; for I, the LORD, dwell among the children of Israel.’”
