< गन्ती 35 >

1 परमप्रभु यरीहोमा यर्दन नजिकको मोआबको मैदानमा मोशासँग बोल्नुभयो,
And the LORD spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,
2 “इस्राएलका मानिसहरूलाई तिनीहरूका आ-आफ्नो भूमिको हिस्साबाट लेवीहरूलाई केही दिन आज्ञा दे । तिनीहरूले उनीहरूलाई बस्‍नको निम्ति सहरहरू र त्यसको वरिपरि खर्क दिनुपर्छ ।
Command the children of Israel, that they give to the Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to dwell in; and you shall give also to the Levites suburbs for the cities round about them.
3 लेवीहरूले बस्‍नलाई यी सहरहरू पाउने छन् । तिनीहरूका गाईवस्तुहरू, भेडा-बाख्राहरू र तिनीहरूका सबै जनावरका निम्ति खर्क हुने छ ।
And the cities shall they have to dwell in; and the suburbs of them shall be for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.
4 तिमीहरूले लेवीहरूलाई दिने सहर वरिपरिका खर्कहरू सहरका पर्खालहरूदेखि बाहिर वरिपरि सबैतिर एक-एक हजार हातसम्म फैलिएको हुने छ ।
And the suburbs of the cities, which you shall give to the Levites, shall reach from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits round about.
5 तिमीहरूले सहरको बाहिरबाट पूर्वपट्टि दुई हजार हात, दक्षिणपट्टि दुई हजार हात, पश्‍चिमपट्टि दुई हजार हात र उत्तरपट्टि दुई हजार हात नाप्‍नुपर्छ । यो तिनीहरूका निम्ति खर्कहरू हुने छ । सहरचाहिँ बिचमा हुने छ ।
And you shall measure from without the city on the east side two thousand cubits, and on the south side two thousand cubits, and on the west side two thousand cubits, and on the north side two thousand cubits; and the city shall be in the middle: this shall be to them the suburbs of the cities.
6 तिमीहरूले लेवीहरूलाई दिने सहरहरूमध्ये छ वटाले शरण-नगरहरूको काम गर्नुपर्छ । तिमीहरूले दिएका यी ठाउँहरूले कुनै मानिसलाई मार्ने व्यक्‍ति भाग्‍न सक्‍ने ठाउँ हुनुपर्छ । बयालिसवटा सहर पनि दिनू ।
And among the cities which you shall give to the Levites there shall be six cities for refuge, which you shall appoint for the manslayer, that he may flee thither: and to them you shall add forty and two cities.
7 तिमीहरूले लेवीहरूलाई दिने सहरहरू जम्‍मा अठचालिसवटा हुने छ । तिमीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई तिनीहरूका खर्कहरूसहित दिनुपर्छ ।
So all the cities which you shall give to the Levites shall be forty and eight cities: them shall you give with their suburbs.
8 इस्राएलका मानिसहरूको ठुलो कुलसँग धैरै भूमि हुने भएकोले धेरै सहरहरू दिनुपर्छ । साना कुलहरूले कम सहरहरू दिनुपर्छ । हरेक कुलले आफूले प्राप्‍त गरेको हिस्साअनुसार लेवीहरूको निम्ति दिनुपर्छ ।
And the cities which you shall give shall be of the possession of the children of Israel: from them that have many you shall give many; but from them that have few you shall give few: every one shall give of his cities to the Levites according to his inheritance which he inherits.
9 त्यसपछि परमप्रभु मोशासँग बोल्नुभयो,
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
10 “इस्राएलका मानिसहरूसँग कुरा गर् र तिनीहरूलाई भन्, 'जब तिमीहरू यर्दन तरेर कनानको भूमिमा प्रवेश गर्छौ,
Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When you be come over Jordan into the land of Canaan;
11 तिमीहरूले तिमीहरूको निम्ति शरण-नगरको काम गर्ने सहरहरू चुन्‍नुपर्छ, जसमा कसैलाई अजानमा मारेको व्यक्‍ति त्यो ठाउँमा भागेर जान सक्छ ।
Then you shall appoint you cities to be cities of refuge for you; that the slayer may flee thither, which kills any person at unawares.
12 यी सहरहरू बदला लिने व्यक्‍तिबाट बाँच्‍ने तिमीहरूको शरण-नगर हुनुपर्छ, ताकि दोष लगाइएको व्यक्‍ति समुदायको सामु न्यायको लागि खडा हुनअगि नमारियोस् ।
And they shall be to you cities for refuge from the avenger; that the manslayer die not, until he stand before the congregation in judgment.
13 तिमीहरूले छवटा सहरलाई शरण-नगरको रूपमा छान्‍नुपर्छ ।
And of these cities which you shall give six cities shall you have for refuge.
14 तिमीहरूले यर्दनपारि तिनवटा सहर र कनानको भूमिमा तिनवटा सहर दिनुपर्छ । ती शरण-नगर हुने छन् ।
You shall give three cities on this side Jordan, and three cities shall you give in the land of Canaan, which shall be cities of refuge.
15 यी छवटा सहरले इस्राएलका मानिसहरूका निम्ति, परदेशीहरूका निम्ति र तिमीहरूमाझ बसोबास गर्ने जो कोहीको निम्ति एउटा शरणको काम गर्नेछ, जसमा कसैलाई अजानमा मार्ने व्यक्‍ति भागेर जान सक्छ ।
These six cities shall be a refuge, both for the children of Israel, and for the stranger, and for the sojourner among them: that every one that kills any person unawares may flee thither.
16 तर यदि दोष लगाइएको मानिसले पीडितलाई फलामको हतियारले प्रहार गरेको छ भने, र यदि त्यसले आक्रमण गरेको व्यक्‍ति मर्‍यो भने, दोष लगाइएको व्यक्‍ति हत्यारा नै हो । त्यसलाई मार्नुपर्छ ।
And if he smite him with an instrument of iron, so that he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
17 यदि दोष लगाइएको मानिसले कसैलाई आफ्नो हातमा भएको ढुङ्गाले कसैलाई मर्ने गरी प्रहार गरेको छ भने, र यदि त्यो व्यक्‍ति मर्‍यो भने, त्यो दोष लगाइएको व्यक्‍ति हत्यारा नै हो । त्यसलाई मार्नुपर्छ ।
And if he smite him with throwing a stone, with which he may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
18 यदि दोष लगाइएको व्यक्‍तिले कसैलाई काठको हतियारले प्रहार गरेको छ भने, र यदि त्यो व्यक्‍ति मर्‍यो भने, दोष लगाइएको व्यक्‍ति हत्यारा नै हो । त्यसलाई मार्नुपर्छ ।
Or if he smite him with an hand weapon of wood, with which he may die, and he die, he is a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
19 रगतको बदला लिने व्यक्‍तिले हत्यारालाई मार्न सक्छ । त्यसले त्यसलाई भेट्दा, रगतको बदला लिने व्यक्‍तिले त्यसलाई मार्नुपर्छ ।
The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he meets him, he shall slay him.
20 यदि त्यसले ढुकेर बसी कसैलाई प्रहार गर्छ वा घृणा गरेर केही कुराले आक्रमण गर्छ भने र आक्रमण गरिएको व्यक्‍ति मर्छ भने,
But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die;
21 वा यदि त्यसले घृणा गरेको व्यक्‍तिलाई आफ्नै हातले प्रहार गर्छ अनि त्यो आक्रमणमा परेको व्यक्‍ति मर्छ भने, त्यसलाई प्रहार गरेको दोष लगाइएको व्यक्‍तिलाई मार्नुपर्छ । त्यो हत्यारा हो । रगतको बदला लिने व्यक्‍तिले त्यसलाई भेट्दा मार्न सक्छ ।
Or in enmity smite him with his hand, that he die: he that smote him shall surely be put to death; for he is a murderer: the revenger of blood shall slay the murderer, when he meets him.
22 तर यदि दोष लगाइएको व्यक्‍तिले पूर्वघृणाविना अचानक कुनै कुरा फ्याँक्दा ढुकेर नबसी नै आक्रमणमा परेको व्यक्‍तिलाई लाग्यो भने,
But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast on him any thing without laying of wait,
23 वा यदि त्यसले आक्रमणमा परेका व्यक्‍तिलाई नदेखी ढुङ्गा फ्याँक्दा लाग्छ र मर्छ, अनि आक्रमणमा परेको व्यक्‍ति दोष लगाइएको व्यक्‍तिको शत्रु होइन भने; त्यसले त्यसलाई चोट पुर्‍याउन खोजिरहेको थिएन । तर आक्रमणमा परेको व्यक्‍ति मर्छ भने यसो गर्नुपर्छ ।
Or with any stone, with which a man may die, seeing him not, and cast it on him, that he die, and was not his enemy, neither sought his harm:
24 त्यस अवस्थामा समुदायले दोष लगाइएको व्यक्‍ति र रगतको बदला लिनेबिच यी नियमहरूको आधारमा न्याय गर्नुपर्छ ।
Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments:
25 समुदायले दोष लगाइएको व्यक्‍तिलाई रगतको बदला लिने व्यक्‍तिको शक्‍तिबाट छुटकारा दिनुपर्छ । समुदायले त्यो दोष लगाइएको व्यक्‍ति पहिले भागेर गएको शरण-नगरमा नै त्यसलाई फर्काउनुपर्छ । त्यो त्यस बेलाको प्रधान पुजारीको मृत्यु नभएसम्म त्यहीँ नै बस्‍नुपर्छ, जसलाई पवित्र तेलले अभिषेक गरिएको थियो ।
And the congregation shall deliver the slayer out of the hand of the revenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore him to the city of his refuge, where he was fled: and he shall abide in it to the death of the high priest, which was anointed with the holy oil.
26 तर यदि दोष लगाइएको व्यक्‍ति कुनै बखत त्यो भागेर गएको सहरको सिमानाबाहिर जान्छ,
But if the slayer shall at any time come without the border of the city of his refuge, where he was fled;
27 र यदि रगतको बदला लिनेले त्यसलाई शरण-नगरको सिमानाबाहिर फेला पार्छ, र यदि त्यसले त्यो दोष लगाइएको व्यक्‍तिलाई मार्छ भने, रगतको बदला लिने व्यक्‍ति हत्याको दोषी हुने छैन ।
And the revenger of blood find him without the borders of the city of his refuge, and the revenger of blood kill the slayer; he shall not be guilty of blood:
28 किनभने त्यो दोष लागेको व्यक्‍ति प्रधान पुजारीको मृत्यु नभएसम्म त्यसको शरण-नगरभित्र नै बस्‍नु पर्थ्यो । प्रधान पुजारीको मृत्युपछि त्यो दोष लागेको व्यक्‍ति आफ्नो सम्पत्ति भएको ठाउँमा फर्केर जान सक्छ ।
Because he should have remained in the city of his refuge until the death of the high priest: but after the death of the high priest the slayer shall return into the land of his possession.
29 यी नियमहरू तिमीहरू बसोबास गर्ने सबै ठाउँमा तिमीहरूका मानिसहरूका पुस्तौँ-पुस्तासम्मको विधिविधान हुनुपर्छ ।
So these things shall be for a statute of judgment to you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
30 कुनै मानिसलाई मार्ने हत्यारालाई साक्षीहरूले दिएको प्रमाणअनुसार मार्नुपर्छ । तर एक जना मात्र साक्षीको प्रमाणमा कुनै पनि व्यक्‍तिलाई मार्नु हुदैन ।
Whoever kills any person, the murderer shall be put to death by the mouth of witnesses: but one witness shall not testify against any person to cause him to die.
31 साथै हत्याराको दोषीको निम्ति तिमीहरूले कुनै किसिको छुटकाराको मूल्य स्वीकार गर्नुहुँदैन । त्यसलाई अवश्य नै मार्नुपर्छ ।
Moreover you shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, which is guilty of death: but he shall be surely put to death.
32 शरण-नगरमा भागेर गएको व्यक्‍तिको निम्ति तिमीहरूले छुटकाराको मूल्य स्वीकार गर्नुहुँदैन । यसरी प्रधान पुजारीको मृत्यु नभएसम्म तिमीहरूले त्यसलाई आफ्नो जायदाद भएको ठाउँमा बसोबास गर्न दिनुहुँदैन ।
And you shall take no satisfaction for him that is fled to the city of his refuge, that he should come again to dwell in the land, until the death of the priest.
33 तिमीहरू बसोबास गरेको भूमिलाई यसरी दूषित नपार, किनभने हत्याराबाटको रगतले भूमिलाई दूषित पार्छ । भूमिमा रगत बगाएपछि यसको निम्ति रगत बगाउने व्यक्‍तिको रगतले बाहेक कुनै किसिमको प्रायश्‍चित्त गर्न सकिँदैन ।
So you shall not pollute the land wherein you are: for blood it defiles the land: and the land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.
34 त्यसैले तिमीहरू बसोबास गर्ने भूमिलाई तिमीहरूले अशुद्ध पार्नुहुँदैन, किनभने म यसमा बास गर्छु । म परमप्रभु इस्राएलका मानिसहरूमाझ बास गर्छु ।
Defile not therefore the land which you shall inhabit, wherein I dwell: for I the LORD dwell among the children of Israel.
