Numbers 35
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan [near] Jericho, saying,
Le nitsara amy Mosè t’Iehovà a montombei’ i Moabe añ’ olo’ Iardeney tandrife Ierikò eo, ami’ty hoe:
2 Command the children of Israel, that they give unto the Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to dwell in; and ye shall give [also] unto the Levites suburbs for the cities round about them.
Lilio o ana’ Israeleo ty hanolotse rova amo nte-Levio himoneña’e boak’ amo lova fanaña’ iareoo, vaho toloro tane mañohoke o rova’ iareoo ho fiandraza’ o nte-Levio.
3 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.
Ho fimoneña’ iareo o rovao naho ho fiandrazañe o añombe’eo naho o mpirai-lia’eo vaho o hare’ iareo iabio i tane mañohokey.
4 And the suburbs of the cities, which ye shall give unto the Levites, [shall reach] from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits round about.
Hifototse an-kijoli’ o rova’e eo vaho hitakatse arivo kiho añ’ areare i rovay o tane fiandraza’eo.
5 And ye 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 midst: this shall be to them the suburbs of the cities.
Le ho zehè’ areo alafe’ o rovao ty ro’arivo kiho ami’ty ila’e atiñanañe, le ro’arivo kiho ami’ty ila’e atimo, le ro’arivo kiho ami’ty lafe’e ahandrefañe, le ro’arivo kiho an-dafe’e avaratse. Añivo’e ao i rovay. Izay ty ho fanaña’ iareo ho fiandraza’ i rovay.
6 And among the cities which ye shall give unto the Levites [there shall be] six cities for refuge, which ye shall appoint for the manslayer, that he may flee thither: and to them ye shall add forty and two cities.
Le ho rovam-pitsolohañe o rova eneñe hatolo’ areo amo nte-Levioo, ie henga’ areo ho fitribahan-dai’ ze mamono ondaty, mandikoatse izay le ho tolora’ areo rova efapolo-ro’amby iereo.
7 [So] all the cities which ye shall give to the Levites [shall be] forty and eight cities: them [shall ye give] with their suburbs.
Aa le mitraoke ho rova efapolo-valo’ amby ty hatolo’ areo amo nte-Levio rekets’ o tane fiandraza’eo.
8 And the cities which ye shall give [shall be] of the possession of the children of Israel: from [them that have] many ye shall give many; but from [them that have] few ye shall give few: every one shall give of his cities unto the Levites according to his inheritance which he inheriteth.
Le boak’ ami’ty fanaña’ o ana’ Israeleo ty hanolora’o i rova rey, hanolotse maro ty fifokoañe bey, naho tsy ampeampe ka ty boak’ ami’ty kede. Songa hanolotse rova amo nte-Levio boak’ amo rova’eo ty amy habei’ i lova ho rambese’ey.
9 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Le hoe ty nitsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè:
10 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come over Jordan into the land of Canaan;
Misaontsia amo ana’Israeleo, le ano ty hoe: ie mitsake Iardeney mb’an-tane Kanàne mb’eo,
11 Then ye shall appoint you cities to be cities of refuge for you; that the slayer may flee thither, which killeth any person at unawares.
le mijoboña rova ho rovam-pitsolohañe, hivoratsaha’ ty namono ondaty tsy an-tsatri’e.
12 And they shall be unto you cities for refuge from the avenger; that the manslayer die not, until he stand before the congregation in judgment.
Rova ho fitsolohañe, hipalira’ areo ami’ty mpamale fate, soa tsy hohofan-doza ty namono ondaty ampara’ t’ie miatre-jaka añatrefa’ i valobohòkey.
13 And of these cities which ye shall give six cities shall ye have for refuge.
Aa le amo rova atolo’ areoo ty hanolora’ areo rovam-pitsolohañe eneñe.
14 Ye shall give three cities on this side Jordan, and three cities shall ye give in the land of Canaan, [which] shall be cities of refuge.
Ho tolora’ areo rova telo ty alafe’ Iardeney atoy naho ho tolora’ areo rova telo ty an-tane Kanàne ao ho rovam-pitsolohañe.
15 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 killeth any person unawares may flee thither.
Ho rovam-pitsoloha’ o ana’ Israeleo i rova eneñe rey, naho ho a o ambahinio naho o renetane añivo’ iereoo, soa t’ie ty hivongarita’ ze mamono ondaty tsy an-tsatri’e.
16 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.
Aa naho lafae’e ami’ty viñe t’indaty vaho mivetrake indatiy, le mpamono ondaty re, toe ho vonoeñe ty mpamono.
17 And if he smite him with throwing a stone, wherewith he may die, and he die, he [is] a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
Aa naho fofohe’e ami’ty vato am-pità’eo, ze mahavetrak’ ondaty vaho mihomake indatiy le mpamono re; toe havetrake i mpamonoy.
18 Or [if] he smite him with an hand weapon of wood, wherewith he may die, and he die, he [is] a murderer: the murderer shall surely be put to death.
Aa ie vinango’e an-kataem-pialiañe am-pità’e ao, ze mahavetrak’ ondaty, naho mate indatiy, le mpamono re, vaho toe ho vonoeñe i mpamonoy.
19 The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he meeteth him, he shall slay him.
Toe i mpamale fatey ty hañoho-doza amy mpamonoy; ie mifanojo ama’e le ho vonoe’e.
20 But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die;
Aa ie maniotse aze mafe ami’ ty falai’e aze, ke mivoñoñe aze, he andretsaha’e raha, vaho mate,
21 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 meeteth him.
he ami’ty fandrafea’e ro mampitrabotrabok’ am-pità’e hampivetrak’ aze, le toe ho vonoeñe i nampitrabotrabokey. Mpamono re, ho vonoe’ ty mpamale fate te ifanojoa’e.
22 But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait,
F’ie mandronje am-pifanojeha’e fa tsy am-palaiñañe, ke mametsa-draha ama’e fa tsy am-pivoñonañe,
23 Or with any stone, wherewith a man may die, seeing [him] not, and cast [it] upon him, that he die, and [was] not his enemy, neither sought his harm:
hera am-bato mete mahafate ondaty, ie ahiriri’e mb’eo fe tsy nioni’e indatiy, le mate indatiy, ie tsy nirafelahi’e vaho tsy nikilily te hañe-doza ama’e,
24 Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments:
le ho zakae’ i valobohòkey añivo’ i namonoy naho i mpamale fatey amy fañè rezay.
25 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, whither he was fled: and he shall abide in it unto the death of the high priest, which was anointed with the holy oil.
Aa le havotso’ i valobohòkey boak’ am-pità’ i mpamale fatey i namono ondatiy, le hampolie’ i valobohòkey mb’ amy rova fitsolohañe nivoratsaha’ey, ao ty hipalira’e am-para’ te vilasy ty mpisorom-bei’ norizañe amy menake miavakey.
26 But if the slayer shall at any time come without the border of the city of his refuge, whither he was fled;
Aa naho eo ty andro añaveloa’ i namonoy alafe’ ty efe’ i rovam-pitsolohañe nivotitsiha’ey,
27 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:
le mahaisak’ aze alafe’ ty efe’ i rovam-pitsolohañey i mpamale fatey, vaho vonoe’ i mpamale fatey, le tsy hanan-tahiñe amy lio’ey re,
28 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.
amy t’ie tsy mete tsy midok’ am-po’ i rovam-pitsolohañey am-para’ te mihomake ty mpisorom-bey, le ie vilasy i mpisorom-beiy vaho mete mimpoly an-tanem-panaña’e añe i namonoy.
29 So these [things] shall be for a statute of judgment unto you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
Ho fañè naho fepètse ho anahareo izay amo hene tarira’ areo mifandimbeo ndra aia’aia ty imoneña’ areo.
30 Whoso killeth 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.
Ze mamono ondaty, le ho vonoeñe i mpamonoy ami’ty taro’ o nahaisakeo; fa tsy azo amonoañe ondaty ami’ty taro’ ondaty raike;
31 Moreover ye shall take no satisfaction for the life of a murderer, which [is] guilty of death: but he shall be surely put to death.
vaho tsy azo jebañeñe ty fiai’ ondaty namono, ie fa voa zaka ami’ ty vono-ondaty; toe tsy mahai-tsy vonoeñe ty mpamono ondaty.
32 And ye 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.
Le tsy azo vilieñ’ ay t’indaty nivoratsake mb’an-drovam-pitsolohañe mb’eo, hampipoliañe aze mb’an-tane’e añe aolo’ ty havilasi’ i Mpisorom-beiy.
33 So ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye [are: ] for blood it defileth the land: and the land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.
Ko mandeotse ty tanen’ akiba’ areo; fa mandeotse tane ty lio, vaho tsy mete mijeba i taney ami’ty lio nadoañe ama’e naho tsy ami’ ty lio’ i nampidoañe azey.
34 Defile not therefore the land which ye shall inhabit, wherein I dwell: for I the LORD dwell among the children of Israel.
Aa le ko maniva ty tane’ imoneña’ areo, fa fimoneñako, amy te mitoboke añivo’ o ana’ Israeleo ao, izaho Iehovà.
