LXX	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 και ελαλησεν κυριος προς μωυσην επι δυσμων μωαβ παρα τον ιορδανην κατα ιεριχω λεγων	1 And the Lord also spoke these things to Moses in the plains of Moab, above the Jordan, opposite Jericho:
2 συνταξον τοις υιοις ισραηλ και δωσουσιν τοις λευιταις απο των κληρων κατασχεσεως αυτων πολεις κατοικειν και τα προαστεια των πολεων κυκλω αυτων δωσουσιν τοις λευιταις	2 “Instruct the sons of Israel, so that they may give to the Levites, from their possessions,
3 και εσονται αυτοις αι πολεις κατοικειν και τα αφορισματα αυτων εσται τοις κτηνεσιν αυτων και πασι τοις τετραποσιν αυτων	3 cities as dwelling places, with their surrounding suburbs, so that they may lodge in the towns, and so that the suburbs may be for cattle and beasts of burden.
4 και τα συγκυρουντα των πολεων ας δωσετε τοις λευιταις απο τειχους της πολεως και εξω δισχιλιους πηχεις κυκλω	4 The suburbs shall extend from the outer walls of the cities, all around, for the space of one thousand steps.
5 και μετρησεις εξω της πολεως το κλιτος το προς ανατολας δισχιλιους πηχεις και το κλιτος το προς λιβα δισχιλιους πηχεις και το κλιτος το προς θαλασσαν δισχιλιους πηχεις και το κλιτος το προς βορραν δισχιλιους πηχεις και η πολις μεσον τουτου εσται υμιν και τα ομορα των πολεων	5 Facing the east, there shall be two thousand cubits, and facing the south, similarly, there shall be two thousand cubits. Toward the sea, also, which looks out toward the west, there shall be the same measure, and the northern region shall be bounded by equal limits. And the cities shall be in the center, and the suburbs shall be outside.
6 και τας πολεις δωσετε τοις λευιταις τας εξ πολεις των φυγαδευτηριων ας δωσετε φευγειν εκει τω φονευσαντι και προς ταυταις τεσσαρακοντα και δυο πολεις	6 Now, from the towns which you shall give to the Levites, six shall be separated for the assistance of fugitives, so that he who has shed blood may flee to them. And, aside from these, there shall be forty-two other towns,
7 πασας τας πολεις δωσετε τοις λευιταις τεσσαρακοντα και οκτω πολεις ταυτας και τα προαστεια αυτων	7 that is, all together forty-eight with their suburbs.
8 και τας πολεις ας δωσετε απο της κατασχεσεως υιων ισραηλ απο των τα πολλα πολλα και απο των ελαττονων ελαττω εκαστος κατα την κληρονομιαν αυτου ην κληρονομησουσιν δωσουσιν απο των πολεων τοις λευιταις	8 And concerning these cities, which shall be given from the possessions of the sons of Israel: from those who have more, more shall be taken, and from those who have less, less shall be taken. Each shall give towns to the Levites according to the measure of their inheritance.”
9 και ελαλησεν κυριος προς μωυσην λεγων	9 The Lord said to Moses:
10 λαλησον τοις υιοις ισραηλ και ερεις προς αυτους υμεις διαβαινετε τον ιορδανην εις γην χανααν	10 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: When you will have crossed the Jordan into the land of Canaan,
11 και διαστελειτε υμιν αυτοις πολεις φυγαδευτηρια εσται υμιν φυγειν εκει τον φονευτην πας ο παταξας ψυχην ακουσιως	11 discern which cities ought to be for the protection of fugitives who have shed blood unwillingly.
12 και εσονται αι πολεις υμιν φυγαδευτηρια απο αγχιστευοντος το αιμα και ου μη αποθανη ο φονευων εως αν στη εναντι της συναγωγης εις κρισιν	12 And when a fugitive is in these, the kinsman of the deceased shall not be able to kill him, until he stands in the sight of the multitude and his case is judged.
13 και αι πολεις ας δωσετε τας εξ πολεις φυγαδευτηρια εσονται υμιν	13 Then, among those cities which are separated for relief to fugitives,
14 τας τρεις πολεις δωσετε εν τω περαν του ιορδανου και τας τρεις πολεις δωσετε εν γη χανααν	14 three shall be across the Jordan, and three in the land of Canaan,
15 φυγαδιον εσται τοις υιοις ισραηλ και τω προσηλυτω και τω παροικω τω εν υμιν εσονται αι πολεις αυται εις φυγαδευτηριον φυγειν εκει παντι παταξαντι ψυχην ακουσιως	15 as much for the sons of Israel as for newcomers and sojourners, so that anyone who has shed blood unwillingly may flee to these places.
16 εαν δε εν σκευει σιδηρου παταξη αυτον και τελευτηση φονευτης εστιν θανατω θανατουσθω ο φονευτης	16 If anyone will have struck someone with iron, and he who was struck will have died, then he shall be guilty of homicide, and he himself shall die.
17 εαν δε εν λιθω εκ χειρος εν ω αποθανειται εν αυτω παταξη αυτον και αποθανη φονευτης εστιν θανατω θανατουσθω ο φονευτης	17 If he will have thrown a stone, and he who has been struck lies dead, then he shall be punished similarly.
18 εαν δε εν σκευει ξυλινω εκ χειρος εξ ου αποθανειται εν αυτω παταξη αυτον και αποθανη φονευτης εστιν θανατω θανατουσθω ο φονευτης	18 If he who has been struck with wood passes away, he shall be avenged by the blood of the one who struck him.
19 ο αγχιστευων το αιμα ουτος αποκτενει τον φονευσαντα οταν συναντηση αυτω ουτος αποκτενει αυτον	19 The close relative of the deceased shall put to death the murderer; as soon as he apprehends him, he shall put him to death.
20 εαν δε δι' εχθραν ωση αυτον και επιρριψη επ' αυτον παν σκευος εξ ενεδρου και αποθανη	20 If, out of hatred, anyone assaults a man, or throws anything at him with ill intent,
21 η δια μηνιν επαταξεν αυτον τη χειρι και αποθανη θανατω θανατουσθω ο παταξας φονευτης εστιν θανατω θανατουσθω ο φονευων ο αγχιστευων το αιμα αποκτενει τον φονευσαντα εν τω συναντησαι αυτω	21 or, while being his enemy, strikes him with his hand, and so he has died, the attacker shall be guilty of murder. The kinsman of the deceased, as soon as he finds him, shall cut his throat.
22 εαν δε εξαπινα ου δι' εχθραν ωση αυτον η επιρριψη επ' αυτον παν σκευος ουκ εξ ενεδρου	22 But if by chance, and without hatred
23 η παντι λιθω εν ω αποθανειται εν αυτω ουκ ειδως και επιπεση επ' αυτον και αποθανη αυτος δε ουκ εχθρος αυτου ην ουδε ζητων κακοποιησαι αυτον	23 or animosity, he will have done any of these things,
24 και κρινει η συναγωγη ανα μεσον του παταξαντος και ανα μεσον του αγχιστευοντος το αιμα κατα τα κριματα ταυτα	24 and this has been proven in the hearing of the people, and the questions have been aired, between the one who struck and the close relative,
25 και εξελειται η συναγωγη τον φονευσαντα απο του αγχιστευοντος το αιμα και αποκαταστησουσιν αυτον η συναγωγη εις την πολιν του φυγαδευτηριου αυτου ου κατεφυγεν και κατοικησει εκει εως αν αποθανη ο ιερευς ο μεγας ον εχρισαν αυτον τω ελαιω τω αγιω	25 then the innocent one shall be freed from the hand of the revenger, and he shall be returned by this judgment into the city to which he had fled, and he shall stay there until the high priest, who has been anointed with the holy oil, dies.
26 εαν δε εξοδω εξελθη ο φονευσας τα ορια της πολεως εις ην κατεφυγεν εκει	26 If the one who has killed has been found beyond the limits of the cities which have been assigned to the exiled,
27 και ευρη αυτον ο αγχιστευων το αιμα εξω των οριων της πολεως καταφυγης αυτου και φονευση ο αγχιστευων το αιμα τον φονευσαντα ουκ ενοχος εστιν	27 and he has been struck by him who is avenging blood, he who killed him shall not be harmed.
28 εν γαρ τη πολει της καταφυγης κατοικειτω εως αν αποθανη ο ιερευς ο μεγας και μετα το αποθανειν τον ιερεα τον μεγαν επαναστραφησεται ο φονευσας εις την γην της κατασχεσεως αυτου	28 For the fugitive ought to have resided in the city, until the death of the high priest. Then, after he is dead, the one who has killed shall be returned to his own land.
29 και εσται ταυτα υμιν εις δικαιωμα κριματος εις τας γενεας υμων εν πασαις ταις κατοικιαις υμων	29 These things shall be a perpetual ordinance in all your habitations.
30 πας παταξας ψυχην δια μαρτυρων φονευσεις τον φονευσαντα και μαρτυς εις ου μαρτυρησει επι ψυχην αποθανειν	30 The punishment of a murderer shall be based upon testimony; but no one shall be condemned upon the testimony of only one person.
31 και ου λημψεσθε λυτρα περι ψυχης παρα του φονευσαντος του ενοχου οντος αναιρεθηναι θανατω γαρ θανατωθησεται	31 You shall not accept money from him who is guilty of blood, and he shall be put to death promptly.
32 ου λημψεσθε λυτρα του φυγειν εις πολιν των φυγαδευτηριων του παλιν κατοικειν επι της γης εως αν αποθανη ο ιερευς ο μεγας	32 Exiles and fugitives, prior to the death of the high priest, are by no means able to be returned to their own cities.
33 και ου μη φονοκτονησητε την γην εις ην υμεις κατοικειτε το γαρ αιμα τουτο φονοκτονει την γην και ουκ εξιλασθησεται η γη απο του αιματος του εκχυθεντος επ' αυτης αλλ' επι του αιματος του εκχεοντος	33 Do not pollute the land of your habitation, so as to stain it with the blood of the innocent; neither is it able to be expiated in any way other than by the blood of him who has shed the blood of another.
34 και ου μιανειτε την γην εφ' ης κατοικειτε επ' αυτης εφ' ης εγω κατασκηνωσω εν υμιν εγω γαρ ειμι κυριος κατασκηνων εν μεσω των υιων ισραηλ	34 And so shall your possession be cleansed, while I myself am abiding with you. For I am the Lord, who lives among the sons of Israel.”
