Zosua 20

1 Ana hutageno Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno Josuana asami'ne,

And Jehovah spoke to Joshua, saying,

2 Israeli vahe'mokizmia zamasamige'za vahe'mo'zama koro fre'za zamagu'ma ome vazi'naza rankumatamina Mosesema asamugeno tamasami'nea kante ante'za mago'a huhamprinteho.

Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Appoint for yourselves the cities of refuge, whereof I spoke unto you through Moses,

3 Hanki mago'mo'ma, vahe ahefri antahintahi omne'nena hantagama huno vahe'ma ahe frisuno'a, agra koro freno ana aguvazi kumatamimpi vuno umanisige'za, anama ahe fri'nesia vahe'mofo naga'mo'zama ahenaku'ma hanazana ohegahaze.

that the slayer who unwittingly without intent smiteth any one mortally may flee thither: and they shall be your refuge from the avenger of blood.

4 Hagi ana ne'mo'ma koro'ma freno mago kuma'mofo ufre kahante'ma vanuno'a, agra ana kumamofo ufre kahante umani'neno, ana kumate ugota vahe'ene, agrama hu'nea zankura keaga eri fatgo hino. Anama hutesige'za atresageno ufreno ana kumapina zamagrane umanigahie.

And he shall flee unto one of those cities and stand at the entrance of the city-gate, and shall declare his matter in the ears of the elders of that city; and they shall take him into the city unto them, and give him a place, that he may dwell among them.

5 Hanki agrama hu'nea hazenkere'ma nona hunaku mago vahe'mo'ma rotagoma huno ana kumate'ma esige'za, ana kumate'ma ugota hu'naza kva vahe'mo'za anama hazenkema hu'nea nera avre omigahaze. Na'ankure agri ha' vahera omani'ne. Hianagi ahe frisue huno oheneanki, amne hantaga huno ahe fri'negu, ana kumapi vahe'mo'za ana nera kegava hunteho.

And if the avenger of blood pursue after him, they shall not deliver the slayer up into his hand; for he smote his neighbour unwittingly, and hated him not previously.

6 Hanki agra ana kumapinke'za mani'nesige'za, ana kumapima nemaniza maka vahe zamavure keaga'a refko hugahaze. Hanki keaga'ama refko'ma hanageno'ma hazenkema omane'nesigeno'a, agra ana kumapinke mani'nesigeno, ana knafima ugagotama hu'nesia pristi nera fritesigeno, mopa agafa'arera ete vugahie.

And he shall dwell in that city, until he have stood before the assembly in judgment, until the death of the high-priest that shall be in those days; then shall the slayer return, and come unto his own city, and unto his own house, unto the city from whence he fled.

7 Hanki Ra Anumzamo'ma anankema hiana antahite'za, Naftali naga'mokizmi mopamofo agona asoparega, Galili kaziga me'nea kuma Kadesima, Efraemi naga mopamofo agonamofo asoparega me'nea kuma Sekemine, Juda nagamokizmi mopamofo agona asoparega me'nea kuma Kiriat-Arba (mago agi'a menina Hebronie nehaze) ana kumatami hu hampri'naze.

And they hallowed Kedesh in Galilee in the hill-country of Naphtali, and Shechem in the hill-country of Ephraim, and Kirjath-Arba, that is, Hebron, in the hill-country of Judah.

8 Hanki Jeriko kumamofo zage hanatitega, Jodani timofo kantu kaziga, ka'ma mopama me'nerega Rubeni naga'mofo agupo moparega me'nea kumara Bezerima, Gileati kaziga Gati naga'mofo mopa me'nea kuma Ramotima, Basani kazigama Golani mopa Manase naga'mofo mopafima me'nea rankuma huhampri'naze.

And beyond the Jordan from Jericho eastward, they assigned Bezer in the wilderness, in the plateau, out of the tribe of Reuben, and Ramoth in Gilead out of the tribe of Gad, and Golan in Bashan of the tribe of Manasseh.

9 Hanki Israeli vahepinti mago'mo'o, ru vahe'ma tamagranema emani'nesaza vahepinti, mago'mo'ma, vahe ahefri antahintahima omne'ne'nigeno hantaga huno mago vahe'ma ahe frisuno'a, anama huhamprinte kumatamimpi koro freno umani'nesigeno, nona huno ahe frisue huno rotago huno'ma esimo'a, ahe ofrigahie. Na'ankure agra maka vahe zamavurera keagafina oraoti'ne.

These were the cities appointed for all the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them, that whosoever smiteth any one mortally without intent might flee thither, and not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, until he stood before the assembly.
