Numbers 35
1 Lórí pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ Moabu ní Jordani tí ó rékọjá láti Jeriko, Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, in the plains of Moab, by Jordan, [near] Jericho, saying,
2 “Pàṣẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli láti fún àwọn Lefi ní ilẹ̀ láti gbé lára ogún tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli yóò jogún. Kí ẹ sì fún wọn ní ilẹ̀ lára pápá oko tútù, káàkiri ìlú.
'Command the sons of Israel, and they have given to the Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to inhabit; also a suburb for the cities round about them ye do give to the Levites.
3 Nígbà náà, wọn yóò ní ìlú tí wọn yóò gbé àti ilẹ̀ pápá oko tútù fún ẹran ọ̀sìn, ọ̀wọ́ ẹran pẹ̀lú gbogbo ìní wọn.
And the cities have been to them to inhabit, and their suburbs are for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.
4 “Ilẹ̀ pápá oko tútù káàkiri ìlú tí ẹ ó fi fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi, wíwọ̀n rẹ̀ yóò jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀rún ìgbọ̀nwọ́ (1,500 ẹsẹ̀ bàtà) láti ògiri ìlú náà.
'And the suburbs of the cities which ye give to the Levites [are], from the wall of the city and without, a thousand cubits round about.
5 Lẹ́yìn ìlú náà, wọn ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì ìgbọ̀nwọ́ lápá ibi ìhà ìlà-oòrùn, ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì ẹsẹ̀ bàtà ní ìhà gúúsù, ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì ní ìhà ìwọ̀-oòrùn àti ẹgbẹ̀rún méjì ní ìhà àríwá, kí ìlú náà sì wà ní àárín. Wọn yóò ní agbègbè yìí gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilẹ̀ pápá oko tútù fún ìlú náà.
And ye 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 to them the suburbs of the cities.
6 “Mẹ́fà lára ìlú tí ẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi yóò jẹ́ ìlú ààbò, tí ẹni tí ó bá pa ènìyàn yóò sá sí. Ní àfikún, ẹ fún wọn ní méjìlélógójì ìlú sí i.
'And the cities which ye give to the Levites [are] the six cities of refuge, which ye give for the fleeing thither of the man-slayer, and besides them ye give forty and two cities;
7 Ní gbogbo rẹ̀, kí ẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi ní méjìdínláàádọ́ta ìlú lápapọ̀ pẹ̀lú ilẹ̀ pápá oko tútù wọn.
all the cities which ye give to the Levites [are] forty and eight cities, them and their suburbs.
8 Ìlú tí ẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi láti ara ilẹ̀ tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli jogún, olúkúlùkù kí ó fi nínú ìlú rẹ̀ fún àwọn ọmọ Lefi gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilẹ̀ ìní rẹ̀ tí ó ní. Gba púpọ̀ lọ́wọ́ ẹ̀yà tí ó ní púpọ̀ àti díẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ ẹ̀yà tí ó ní díẹ̀.”
And the cities which ye give [are] of the possession of the sons of Israel, from the many ye multiply, and from the few ye diminish; each, according to his inheritance which they inherit, doth give of his cities to the Levites.'
9 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
10 “Sọ̀rọ̀ sí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, kí o sì sọ fún wọn: ‘Nígbà tí ẹ bá rékọjá odò Jordani sí Kenaani,
'Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, When ye are passing over the Jordan to the land of Canaan,
11 yan àwọn ìlú kan láti jẹ́ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìlú ààbò fún yín, kí apani tó pa ènìyàn ní àìmọ̀ máa sálọ síbẹ̀.
and have prepared to yourselves cities — cities of refuge they are to you — then fled thither hath a man-slayer, smiting a person unawares,
12 Wọn yóò jẹ́ ibi ìsásí kúrò lọ́wọ́ olùgbẹ̀san, kí ẹni tí a fi ẹ̀sùn ìpànìyàn kàn má ba à kú kí ó tó dúró níwájú àwọn ìjọ àwọn ènìyàn ní ìdájọ́.
and the cities have been to you for a refuge from the redeemer, and the man-slayer doth not die till his standing before the company for judgment.
13 Mẹ́fà nínú ìlú tí ẹ ó fi fún wọn yóò jẹ́ ìlú ààbò fún yín.
'As to the cities which ye give — six [are] cities of refuge to you;
14 Yan ìlú mẹ́ta ní ìhà ti Jordani, kí ẹ sì yan ìlú mẹ́ta ní ìhà Kenaani tí yóò máa jẹ́ ìlú ìsásí.
the three of the cities ye give beyond the Jordan, and the three of the cities ye give in the land of Canaan; cities of refuge they are.
15 Ìlú mẹ́fà yìí yóò jẹ́ ìlú ìsásí fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, fún àjèjì àti ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ń gbé láàrín wọn, kí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá pa ènìyàn ní àìmọ̀ sálọ síbẹ̀.
To sons of Israel, and to a sojourner, and to a settler in their midst, are these six cities for a refuge, for the fleeing thither of any one smiting a person unawares.
16 “‘Bí ọkùnrin kan bá fi ohun èlò irin lu ènìyàn tí ó kú, apànìyàn ni, pípa ni a ó pa, apànìyàn náà.
'And if with an instrument of iron he hath smitten him, and he dieth, he [is] a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.
17 Tàbí tí ènìyàn bá mú òkúta tí ó lè pa ènìyàn lọ́wọ́ tí ó sì fi lu ènìyàn, tí ó sì kú, apànìyàn ni, pípa ni a ó pa apànìyàn náà.
'And if with a stone [in] the hand, wherewith he dieth, he hath smitten him, and he dieth, he [is] a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.
18 Tàbí tí ènìyàn bá mú ohun èlò igi ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀ tí ó sì lẹ̀ ẹ́ pa ènìyàn, tí ó sì fi lu ènìyàn, tí ó sì kú, apànìyàn ni; pípa ní a ó pa apànìyàn náà.
'Or with a wooden instrument [in] the hand, wherewith he dieth, he hath smitten him, and he dieth, he [is] a murderer: the murderer is certainly put to death.
19 Olùgbẹ̀san ẹ̀jẹ̀ yóò pa apànìyàn náà; tí ó bá bá a, yóò pa á.
'The redeemer of blood himself doth put the murderer to death; in his coming against him he doth put him to death.
20 Tí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ń yan odì pẹ̀lú ìríra tí ẹlòmíràn tàbí ju nǹkan sí i pẹ̀lú èrò, tí ó sì kú.
'And if in hatred he thrust him through, or hath cast [anything] at him by lying in wait, and he dieth;
21 Tàbí pẹ̀lú ìjà gbangba lù ú pẹ̀lú ìkùùkuu tí ó sì kú, pípa ni a ó pa ẹni bẹ́ẹ̀; apànìyàn ni. Olùgbẹ̀san ẹ̀jẹ̀ yóò pa apànìyàn náà tí ó bá bá a.
or in enmity he hath smitten him with his hand, and he dieth; the smiter is certainly put to death; he [is] a murderer; the redeemer of blood doth put the murderer to death in his coming against him.
22 “‘Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó bá fi nǹkan gún un lójijì láìṣọ̀ta, tàbí tí ó sọ ohunkóhun lù ú láìmọ̀-ọ́n-mọ̀ ṣe
'And if, in an instant, without enmity, he hath thrust him through, or hath cast at him any instrument, without lying in wait;
23 tàbí, láìri, ju òkúta sí tí ó lè pa á, tí ó sì kú, nígbà tí kì í ṣe ọ̀tá rẹ̀, láti ṣe é léṣe.
or with any stone wherewith he dieth, without seeing, and causeth [it] to fall upon him, and he dieth, and he [is] not his enemy, nor seeking his evil;
24 Àwọn àpéjọ gbọdọ̀ dájọ́ láàrín rẹ̀ àti olùgbẹ̀san ẹ̀jẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìlànà.
then have the company judged between the smiter and the redeemer of blood, by these judgments.
25 Àpéjọ gbọdọ̀ dá ààbò bo ẹni tí a fi ẹ̀sùn ìpànìyàn kàn, kí a sì rán an padà lọ sí ìlú ìsásí tí ó ti wá. Ó gbọdọ̀ dúró níbẹ̀ títí di ìgbà tí olórí àlùfáà bá kú, ẹni tí a fi àmì òróró yàn.
'And the company have delivered the man-slayer out of the hand of the redeemer of blood, and the company have caused him to turn back unto the city of his refuge, whither he hath fled, and he hath dwelt in it till the death of the chief priest, who hath been anointed with the holy oil.
26 “‘Ṣùgbọ́n ti ẹni tí a fi sùn kan bá jáde kọjá ààlà ìlú ìsásí tí ó sá sí.
'And if the man-slayer at all go out [from] the border of the city of his refuge whither he fleeth,

and the redeemer of blood hath found him at the outside of the border of the city of his refuge, and the redeemer of blood hath slain the man-slayer, blood is not for him;
28 Ẹni tí a fi ẹ̀sùn kàn gbọdọ̀ dúró nínú ìlú ìsásí títí di ìgbà tí olórí àlùfáà bá kú; lẹ́yìn ikú olórí àlùfáà, ni ó tó lè padà sí ibi tí dúkìá rẹ̀ wà.
for in the city of his refuge he doth dwell till the death of the chief priest; and after the death of the chief priest doth the man-slayer turn back unto the city of his possession.
29 “‘Wọ̀nyí ni ó jẹ́ ìlànà ìdájọ́ fún yín ní ìran yín tó ń bọ̀, ní ibikíbi tí ẹ bá ń gbé.
'And these things have been to you for a statute of judgment to your generations, in all your dwellings:
30 “‘Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá pa ènìyàn gbọdọ̀ kú gẹ́gẹ́ bí apànìyàn lórí ìjẹ́rìí àwọn ènìyàn. Ṣùgbọ́n ẹlẹ́rìí kan ṣoṣo. Kì yóò jẹ́rìí sí ẹnìkan láti pa.
whoso smiteth a person, by the mouth of witnesses doth [one] slay the murderer; and one witness doth not testify against a person — to die.
31 “‘Má ṣe gba ohun ìràpadà fún ẹ̀mí apànìyàn, tí ó jẹ̀bi kí ó kú. Ṣùgbọ́n pípa ni kí a pa á.
'And ye take no atonement for the life of a murderer who [is] condemned — to die, for he is certainly put to death;
32 “‘Má ṣe gba ìràsílẹ̀ fún ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá lọ sí ìlú ìsásí, pe kí ó padà máa gbé ní ilẹ̀ tirẹ̀ kí ó tó di ìgbà ikú olórí àlùfáà.
and ye take no atonement for him to flee unto the city of his refuge, to turn back to dwell in the land, until the death of the priest.
33 “‘Má ṣe sọ ilẹ̀ tí ẹ wà di àìmọ́. Ìtàjẹ̀ sílẹ̀ sọ ilẹ̀ náà di àìmọ́. Àtúnṣe kì yóò sí fún ilẹ̀ tí a ti ta ẹ̀jẹ̀ lé lórí, àyàfi ẹ̀jẹ̀ ẹni tí ó ta á sílẹ̀.
'And ye profane not the land which ye [are] in, for blood profaneth the land; as to the land, it is not pardoned for blood which is shed in it except by the blood of him who sheddeth it;
34 Má ṣe sọ di àìmọ́, ilẹ̀ tí ẹ ń gbé, àti èyí tí mo ń gbé, nítorí Èmi Olúwa ń gbé láàrín àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.’”
and ye defile not the land in which ye are dwelling, in the midst of which I do tabernacle, for I Jehovah do tabernacle in the midst of the sons of Israel.'
