Numbers 35

Ary Jehovah niteny tamin'i Mosesy teo Arbota-moaba, amoron'i Jordana tandrifin'i Jeriko, ka nanao hoe:

And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,

Mandidia ny Zanak'Isiraely mba hanome tanàna ao amin'ny zara-taniny avy honenan'ny Levita; ary homenareo tany manodidina ny tanàna koa izy.

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.

Koa ny tanàna dia honenany; ary ny tany dia ho an'ny biby fiompiny sy ny fananany mbamin'ny bibiny rehetra.

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.

Ary ny tany manodidina ny tanàna izay homenareo ny Levita dia izao: Hatramin'ny màndan'ny tanàna ka hatramin'ny faritry ny taniny dia arivo hakiho amin'ny lafiny efatra avy.

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.

Dia handrefy roa arivo hakiho eo ivelan'ny tanàna ianareo amin'ny lafiny atsinanana, ary roa arivo hakiho amin'ny lafiny atsimo, ary roa arivo hakiho amin'ny lafiny andrefana, ary roa arivo hakiho amin'ny lafiny avaratra, ary ny tanàna dia ho eo afovoany; izany no ho taniny manodidina ny tanàna.

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.

Ary izao no tanàna izay homenareo ny Levita: dia tanàna enina, fandosirana, izay homenareo handosiran'izay nahafaty olona, sy tanàna roa amby efa-polo koa.

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.

Koa ny tanàna rehetra izay homenareo ny Levita dia valo amby efa-polo mbamin'ny tany manodidina azy.

So all the cities which ye shall give to the Levites shall be forty and eight cities: them shall ye give with their suburbs.

Ary ny amin'ny tanàna izay homenareo avy amin'ny zara-tanin'ny firenen'ny Zanak'Isiraely, dia izay be no hanalanareo be, ary izay kely no hanalanareo kely: samy hanome tanàna ho an'ny Levita izy rehetra araka ny zara-taniny avy.

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.

Ary Jehovah niteny tamin'i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

Mitenena amin'ny Zanak'Isiraely hoe: Rehefa tafita an'i Jordana ianareo ka tonga any amin'ny tany Kanana,

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come over Jordan into the land of Canaan;

dia hifidy tanàna ianareo, ho tanàna fandosirana ho anareo, mba handosiran'izay nahafaty olona tsy nahy.

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.

Dia ho fandosirana ho anareo mba tsy ho azon'ny mpamaly rà izany tanàna izany, mba tsy ho faty izay nahafaty olona mandra-pisehony hotsaraina eo anatrehan'ny fiangonana.

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.

Ary ireo tanàna homenareo ireo dia ho tanàna fandosirana enina ho anareo.

And of these cities which ye shall give six cities shall ye have for refuge.

Ny tanàna telo dia homenareo etỳ an-dafin'i Jordana etỳ, ary ny tanàna telo kosa homenareo ao amin'ny tany Kanana; ho tanàna fandosirana ireo.

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.

Ireo tanàna enina ireo dia ho fandosirana ho an'ny Zanak'Isiraely sy ny vahiny ary ny mpitoetra ao aminy, mba handosiran'izay rehetra nahafaty olona tsy nahy.

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.

Kanefa raha misy mamely vy olona ka mahafaty, dia nahafaty olona izy; hatao maty tokoa izay nahafaty olona.

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.

Ary raha misy mamely vato olona ka mahafaty, dia nahafaty olona izy; hatao maty tokoa izay nahafaty olona.

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.

Ary raha misy mamely hazo olona ka mahafaty, dia nahafaty olona izy; hatao maty tokoa izay nahafaty olona.

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.

Ny mpamaly rà no mahazo mamono azy; raha mihaona aminy izy, dia mahazo mamono azy.

The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he meeteth him, he shall slay him.

Ary raha misy mamely olona noho ny lolom-po, na mitoraka olona amin'ny fanotrehana, ka mahafaty,

But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die;

na mamely amin'ny tànany noho ny fandrafiana ka mahafaty, dia hatao maty tokoa ilay namely; nahafaty olona izy; ny mpamaly rà no mahazo mamono azy, raha mihaona aminy izy.

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.

Fa raha misy mamely olona tsy nahy, ka tsy noho ny fandrafiana, na mitoraka olona na amin'inona na amin'inona, nefa tsy amin'ny fanotrehana,

But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait,

na sendra manjera vato ka mahafaty olona, nefa tsy hitany, sady tsy fahavalony izy, na mitady handratra azy,

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:

dia hotsarain'ny fiangonana ilay namely sy ny mpamaly rà araka izany lalàna izany.

Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments:

Ary hovonjen'ny fiangonana ho afaka amin'ny mpamaly rà ilay nahafaty olona, ka hateriny indray ho ao amin'ny tanàna fandosirana izay nalehany tamin'izy nandositra; ary hitoetra ao izy mandra-pahafatin'ny mpisoronabe izay voahosotra tamin'ny diloilo masina.

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.

Fa raha mivoaka ho eo ivelan'ny tanàna fandosirana izay nalehany tamin'izy nandositra ilay nahafaty olona

But if the slayer shall at any time come without the border of the city of his refuge, whither he was fled;

ka hitan'ny mpamaly rà eo ivelan'ny tanàna, dia azony vonoina izy; ary tsy hisy valin-drà amin'izany,

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:

satria tokony ho nitoetra tao an-tanàna fandosirana izy mandra-pahafatin'ny mpisoronabe; fa rehefa maty ny mpisoronabe, dia mahazo mody any amin'ny zara-taniny ihany ilay nahafaty olona.

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.

Ary izany zavatra izany dia ho lalàna hitondrana anareo hatramin'ny taranakareo fara mandimby eny amin'izay rehetra onenanareo.

So these things shall be for a statute of judgment unto you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.

Ny amin'izay rehetra mahafaty olona, dia hatao maty izay mahafaty, araka ny tenin'ny vavolombelona; nefa raha vavolombelona iray monja, dia tsy ampy hanameloka hahafaty olona izany.

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.

Ary ianareo tsy handray avotry ny ain'ny nahafaty olona, izay meloka ka tokony ho faty; fa hatao maty tokoa izy.

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.

Ary ianareo tsy handray avotra ho an'izay mandositra ho ao an-tanàna fandosirana, mba hodiany indray hitoetra amin'ny taniny, raha mbola tsy maty ny mpisorona.

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.

Ary aza mametaveta ny tany izay onenanareo, fa ny rà dia fametavetana ny tany; ary ny tany tsy azo anaovana fanavotana ny amin'ny rà izay nalatsaka teo, afa-tsy amin'ny ran'izay nandatsaka azy ihany.

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.

Ary aza lotoinareo ny tany onenanareo, izay itoerako; fa Izaho Jehovah mitoetra eo amin'ny Zanak'Isiraely.

Defile not therefore the land which ye shall inhabit, wherein I dwell: for I the LORD dwell among the children of Israel.
