Numeri 35

NOVA VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Haec quoque locutus est Do minus ad Moysen in campe stribus Moab supra Iordanem contra Iericho:	1 And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,
2 “ Praecipe filiis Israel, ut dent Levitis de possessionibus suis urbes ad habitandum et suburbana earum per circuitum,	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.
3 ut ipsi in oppidis maneant, et suburbana sint pecoribus ac substantiae et omnibus animalibus eorum;	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.
4 quae a muris civitatum forinsecus per circuitum mille cubitos spatio tendentur.	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.
5 Et mensurabitis extra civitatem contra orientem duo milia cubitorum, et contra meridiem similiter duo milia, ad mare quoque, quod respicit ad occidentem, eadem mensura erit, et septentrionalis plaga aequali termino finietur; eruntque urbes in medio et foris suburbana.	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.
6 De ipsis autem oppidis, quae Levitis dabitis, sex erunt in fugitivorum auxilia separata, ut fugiat ad ea, qui nesciens fuderit sanguinem; et, exceptis his, alia quadraginta duo oppida dabitis,	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.
7 id est simul quadraginta octo cum suburbanis suis.	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.
8 Ipsaeque urbes, quas dabitis de possessionibus filiorum Israel, ab his, qui plus habent, plures auferetis, et, qui minus, pauciores; singuli iuxta mensuram hereditatis suae dabunt oppida Levitis ”.	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.
9 Ait Dominus ad Moysen:	9 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
10 “ Loquere filiis Israel et dices ad eos: Quando transgressi fueritis Iordanem in terram Chanaan,	10 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come over Jordan into the land of Canaan;
11 eligetis urbes, quae esse debeant in praesidia fugitivorum, qui nolentes sanguinem fuderint;	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.
12 erunt vobis urbes refugii contra ultorem, et occisor non morietur, donec stet in conspectu congregationis, et causa illius iudicetur.	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.
13 De ipsis autem sex urbibus, quae ad fugitivorum subsidia separantur,	13 And of these cities which ye shall give six cities shall ye have for refuge.
14 tres erunt trans Iordanem et tres in terra Chanaan,	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.
15 tam filiis Israel quam advenis atque peregrinis, ut confugiat ad eas sex, qui nolens sanguinem fuderit.	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.
16 Si quis ferro percusserit, et mortuus fuerit, qui percussus est, reus erit homicidii et ipse morietur.	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.
17 Si lapidem mortiferum iecerit, et ictus occiderit, similiter punietur.	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.
18 Si ligno mortifero percusserit eum et interfecerit, homicida est; ipse morte punietur.	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.
19 Ultor sanguinis homicidam interficiet: statim ut apprehenderit eum, interficiet.	19 The revenger of blood himself shall slay the murderer: when he meeteth him, he shall slay him.
20 Si per odium quis hominem impulerit vel iecerit quippiam in eum per insidias	20 But if he thrust him of hatred, or hurl at him by laying of wait, that he die;
21 aut, cum esset inimicus, manu percusserit, et ille mortuus fuerit, percussor homicidii reus erit: ultor sanguinis statim ut invenerit eum, iugulabit.	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.
22 Quod si fortuitu et absque odio eum percusserit vel quidpiam in eum iecerit absque insidiis,	22 But if he thrust him suddenly without enmity, or have cast upon him any thing without laying of wait,
23 vel quemlibet lapidem mortiferum in eum devolverit, cum eum non vidisset, et ille mortuus est, quamvis eum non oderit nec quaesierit ei malum,	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:
24 iudicabit congregatio inter percussorem et ultorem sanguinis secundum has regulas	24 Then the congregation shall judge between the slayer and the revenger of blood according to these judgments:
25 et liberabit occisorem de manu ultoris sanguinis et reducet in civitatem refugii, ad quam confugerat, manebitque ibi, donec sacerdos magnus, qui oleo sancto unctus est, moriatur.	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.
26 Si interfector extra fines civitatis refugii, in quam confugerat, exierit,	26 But if the slayer shall at any time come without the border of the city of his refuge, whither he was fled;
27 et invenerit eum ultor sanguinis ibi et interfecerit, absque noxa erit, qui eum occiderit;	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:
28 debuerat enim profugus usque ad mortem pontificis in civitate refugii residere. Postquam autem ille obierit, homicida revertetur in terram suam.	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.
29 Haec erunt vobis in legitima iudicii pro generationibus vestris, in cunctis habitationibus vestris.	29 So these things shall be for a statute of judgment unto you throughout your generations in all your dwellings.
30 Homicida sub testibus occidetur; ad unius testimonium nullus ad mortem condemnabitur.	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.
31 Non accipietis pretium pro eo, qui reus est sanguinis, sed morietur.	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.
32 Neque accipietis pretium, ut fugiat in civitatem refugii sui, ut revertatur et habitet in terra ante mortem sacerdotis.	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.
33 Non polluetis terram habitationis vestrae, quia sanguis polluit terram, nec aliter expiari potest nisi per eius sanguinem, qui alterius sanguinem fuderit.	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.
34 Non maculabitis terram habitationis vestrae, me commorante vobiscum. Ego enim sum Dominus, qui habito inter filios Israel ”.	34 Defile not therefore the land which ye shall inhabit, wherein I dwell: for I the LORD dwell among the children of Israel.
