Deuteronomy 19

DOUAI-RHEIMS	LXX
1 When the Lord thy God hath destroyed the nations, whose land he will deliver to thee, and thou shalt possess it, and shalt dwell in the cities and houses thereof :	1 εαν δε αφανιση κυριος ο θεος σου τα εθνη α ο θεος σου διδωσιν σοι την γην αυτων και κατακληρονομησητε αυτους και κατοικησητε εν ταις πολεσιν αυτων και εν τοις οικοις αυτων
2 Thou shalt separate to thee three cities in the midst of the land, which the Lord will give thee in possession,	2 τρεις πολεις διαστελεις σεαυτω εν μεσω της γης σου ης κυριος ο θεος σου διδωσιν σοι
3 Paving diligently the way: and thou shalt divide the whole province of thy land equally into three parts: that he who is forced to flee for manslaughter, may have near at hand whither to escape.	3 στοχασαι σοι την οδον και τριμεριεις τα ορια της γης σου ην καταμεριζει σοι κυριος ο θεος σου και εσται καταφυγη εκει παντι φονευτη
4 This shall be the law of the slayer that fleeth, whose life is to be saved: He that killeth his neighbour ignorantly, and who is proved to have had no hatred against him yesterday and the day before:	4 τουτο δε εσται το προσταγμα του φονευτου ος αν φυγη εκει και ζησεται ος αν παταξη τον πλησιον αυτου ακουσιως και ουτος ου μισων αυτον προ της εχθες και προ της τριτης
5 But to have gone with him to the wood to hew wood, and in cutting down the tree the axe slipped out of his hand, and the iron slipping from the handle struck his friend, and killed him: he shall flee to one of the cities aforesaid, and live:	5 και ος αν εισελθη μετα του πλησιον εις τον δρυμον συναγαγειν ξυλα και εκκρουσθη η χειρ αυτου τη αξινη κοπτοντος το ξυλον και εκπεσον το σιδηριον απο του ξυλου τυχη του πλησιον και αποθανη ουτος καταφευξεται εις μιαν των πολεων τουτων και ζησεται
6 Lest perhaps the next kinsman of him whose blood was shed, pushed on by his grief should pursue, and apprehend him. if the way be too long, and take away the life of him who is not guilty of death, because he is proved to have had no hatred before against him that was slain.	6 ινα μη διωξας ο αγχιστευων του αιματος οπισω του φονευσαντος οτι παρατεθερμανται τη καρδια και καταλαβη αυτον εαν μακροτερα η η οδος και παταξη αυτου την ψυχην και αποθανη και τουτω ουκ εστιν κρισις θανατου οτι ου μισων ην αυτον προ της εχθες και προ της τριτης
7 Therefore I command thee, that thou separate three cities at equal distance one from another.	7 δια τουτο εγω σοι εντελλομαι το ρημα τουτο λεγων τρεις πολεις διαστελεις σεαυτω
8 And when the Lord thy God shall have enlarged thy borders, as he swore to thy fathers, and shall give thee all the land that he promised them,	8 εαν δε εμπλατυνη κυριος ο θεος σου τα ορια σου ον τροπον ωμοσεν τοις πατρασιν σου και δω σοι κυριος πασαν την γην ην ειπεν δουναι τοις πατρασιν σου
9 (Yet so, if thou keep his commandments, and do the things which I command thee this day, that thou love the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways at all times) thou shalt add to thee other three cities, and shalt double the number of the three cities aforesaid:	9 εαν ακουσης ποιειν πασας τας εντολας ταυτας ας εγω εντελλομαι σοι σημερον αγαπαν κυριον τον θεον σου πορευεσθαι εν πασαις ταις οδοις αυτου πασας τας ημερας και προσθησεις σεαυτω ετι τρεις πολεις προς τας τρεις ταυτας
10 That innocent blood may not be shed in the midst of the land which the Lord thy God will give thee to possess, lest thou be guilty of blood.	10 και ουκ εκχυθησεται αιμα αναιτιον εν τη γη σου η κυριος ο θεος σου διδωσιν σοι εν κληρω και ουκ εσται εν σοι αιματι ενοχος
11 But if any man hating his neighbour, lie in wait for his life, and rise and strike him, and he die, and he flee to one of the cities aforesaid,	11 εαν δε γενηται ανθρωπος μισων τον πλησιον και ενεδρευση αυτον και επαναστη επ' αυτον και παταξη αυτου ψυχην και απεθανη και φυγη εις μιαν των πολεων τουτων
12 The ancients of his city shall send, and take him out of the place of refuge, and shall deliver him into the hand of the kinsman of him whose blood was shed, and he shall die.	12 και αποστελουσιν η γερουσια της πολεως αυτου και λημψονται αυτον εκειθεν και παραδωσουσιν αυτον εις χειρας τω αγχιστευοντι του αιματος και αποθανειται
13 Thou shalt not pity him, and thou shalt take away the guilt of innocent blood out of Israel, that it may be well with thee.	13 ου φεισεται ο οφθαλμος σου επ' αυτω και καθαριεις το αιμα το αναιτιον εξ ισραηλ και ευ σοι εσται
14 Thou shalt not take nor remove thy neighbour's landmark, which thy predecessors have set in thy possession. which the Lord thy God will give thee in the land that thou shalt receive to possess.	14 ου μετακινησεις ορια του πλησιον σου α εστησαν οι πατερες σου εν τη κληρονομια σου η κατεκληρονομηθης εν τη γη η κυριος ο θεος σου διδωσιν σοι εν κληρω
15 One witness shall not rise up against any man, whatsoever the sin or wickedness be: but in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall stand.	15 ουκ εμμενει μαρτυς εις μαρτυρησαι κατα ανθρωπου κατα πασαν αδικιαν και κατα παν αμαρτημα και κατα πασαν αμαρτιαν ην αν αμαρτη επι στοματος δυο μαρτυρων και επι στοματος τριων μαρτυρων σταθησεται παν ρημα
16 If a lying witness stand against a man, accusing him of transgression,	16 εαν δε καταστη μαρτυς αδικος κατα ανθρωπου καταλεγων αυτου ασεβειαν
17 Both of them, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before the Lord in the sight of the priests and the judges that shall be in those days.	17 και στησονται οι δυο ανθρωποι οις εστιν αυτοις η αντιλογια εναντι κυριου και εναντι των ιερεων και εναντι των κριτων οι εαν ωσιν εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις
18 And when after most diligent inquisition, they shall find that the false witness hath told a lie against his brother:	18 και εξετασωσιν οι κριται ακριβως και ιδου μαρτυς αδικος εμαρτυρησεν αδικα αντεστη κατα του αδελφου αυτου
19 They shall render to him as he meant to do to his brother, and thou shalt take away the evil out of the midst of thee:	19 και ποιησετε αυτω ον τροπον επονηρευσατο ποιησαι κατα του αδελφου αυτου και εξαρεις τον πονηρον εξ υμων αυτων
20 That others hearing may fear, and may not dare to do such things.	20 και οι επιλοιποι ακουσαντες φοβηθησονται και ου προσθησουσιν ετι ποιησαι κατα το ρημα το πονηρον τουτο εν υμιν
21 ,21Thou shalt not pity him, but shalt require life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.	21 ου φεισεται ο οφθαλμος σου επ' αυτω ψυχην αντι ψυχης οφθαλμον αντι οφθαλμου οδοντα αντι οδοντος χειρα αντι χειρος ποδα αντι ποδος
