Numbers 35

KJV

1  And the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ spoke¹⁶⁹⁶ unto⁴¹³ Moses⁴⁸⁷² in the plains⁶¹⁶⁰ of Moab⁴¹²⁴ by⁵⁹²¹ Jordan³³⁸³ near Jericho,³⁴⁰⁵ saying,⁵⁵⁹

2  Command^{6680 853} the children¹¹²¹ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ that they give⁵⁴¹⁴ unto the Levites³⁸⁸¹ of the inheritance^{4480 5159} of their possession²⁷² cities⁵⁸⁹² to dwell in;³⁴²⁷ and ye shall give⁵⁴¹⁴ also unto the Levites³⁸⁸¹ suburbs⁴⁰⁵⁴ for the cities⁵⁸⁹² round about⁵⁴³⁹ them.

3  And the cities⁵⁸⁹² shall they have¹⁹⁶¹ to dwell in;³⁴²⁷ and the suburbs⁴⁰⁵⁴ of them shall be¹⁹⁶¹ for their cattle,⁹²⁹ and for their goods,⁷³⁹⁹ and for all³⁶⁰⁵ their beasts.²⁴¹⁶

4  And the suburbs⁴⁰⁵⁴ of the cities,⁵⁸⁹² which⁸³⁴ ye shall give⁵⁴¹⁴ unto the Levites,³⁸⁸¹ shall reach from the wall^{4480 7023} of the city⁵⁸⁹² and outward²³⁵¹ a thousand⁵⁰⁵ cubits⁵²⁰ round about.⁵⁴³⁹

5  And ye shall measure⁴⁰⁵⁸ from without^{4480 2351} the city⁵⁸⁹² on ⁸⁵³ the east⁶⁹²⁴ side⁶²⁸⁵ two thousand⁵⁰⁵ cubits,⁵²⁰ and on the south⁵⁰⁴⁵ side⁶²⁸⁵ two thousand⁵⁰⁵ cubits,⁵²⁰ and on the west³²²⁰ side⁶²⁸⁵ two thousand⁵⁰⁵ cubits,⁵²⁰ and on the north⁶⁸²⁸ side⁶²⁸⁵ two thousand⁵⁰⁵ cubits;⁵²⁰ and the city⁵⁸⁹² shall be in the midst:⁸⁴³² this²⁰⁸⁸ shall be¹⁹⁶¹ to them the suburbs⁴⁰⁵⁴ of the cities.⁵⁸⁹²

6  And among⁸⁵⁴ the cities⁵⁸⁹² which⁸³⁴ ye shall give⁵⁴¹⁴ unto the Levites³⁸⁸¹ there shall be ⁸⁵³ six⁸³³⁷ cities⁵⁸⁹² for refuge,⁴⁷³³ which⁸³⁴ ye shall appoint⁵⁴¹⁴ for the manslayer,⁷⁵²³ that he may flee⁵¹²⁷ thither:⁸⁰³³ and to⁵⁹²¹ them ye shall add⁵⁴¹⁴ forty⁷⁰⁵ and two⁸¹⁴⁷ cities.⁵⁸⁹²

7  So all³⁶⁰⁵ the cities⁵⁸⁹² which⁸³⁴ ye shall give⁵⁴¹⁴ to the Levites³⁸⁸¹ shall be forty⁷⁰⁵ and eight⁸⁰⁸³ cities:⁵⁸⁹² them shall ye give with⁸⁵⁴ their suburbs.⁴⁰⁵⁴

8  And the cities⁵⁸⁹² which⁸³⁴ ye shall give⁵⁴¹⁴ shall be of the possession^{4480 272} of the children¹¹²¹ of Israel:³⁴⁷⁸ from^{4480 854} them that have many⁷²²⁷ ye shall give many;⁷²³⁵ but from^{4480 854} them that have few⁴⁵⁹² ye shall give few:⁴⁵⁹¹ every one³⁷⁶ shall give⁵⁴¹⁴ of his cities^{4480 5892} unto the Levites³⁸⁸¹ according to⁶³¹⁰ his inheritance⁵¹⁵⁹ which⁸³⁴ he inheriteth.⁵¹⁵⁷

9  And the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ spoke¹⁶⁹⁶ unto⁴¹³ Moses,⁴⁸⁷² saying,⁵⁵⁹

10  Speak¹⁶⁹⁶ unto⁴¹³ the children¹¹²¹ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ and say⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ them, When³⁵⁸⁸ ye⁸⁵⁹ be come over^{5674 853} Jordan³³⁸³ into the land⁷⁷⁶ of Canaan;³⁶⁶⁷

11  Then ye shall appoint⁷¹³⁶ you cities⁵⁸⁹² to be¹⁹⁶¹ cities⁵⁸⁹² of refuge⁴⁷³³ for you; that the slayer⁷⁵²³ may flee⁵¹²⁷ thither,⁸⁰³³ which killeth⁵²²¹ any person⁵³¹⁵ at unawares.⁷⁶⁸⁴

12  And they shall be¹⁹⁶¹ unto you cities⁵⁸⁹² for refuge⁴⁷³³ from the avenger;^{4480 1350} that the manslayer⁷⁵²³ die⁴¹⁹¹ not,³⁸⁰⁸ until⁵⁷⁰⁴ he stand⁵⁹⁷⁵ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the congregation⁵⁷¹² in judgment.⁴⁹⁴¹

13  And of these cities⁵⁸⁹² which⁸³⁴ ye shall give⁵⁴¹⁴ six⁸³³⁷ cities⁵⁸⁹² shall ye have¹⁹⁶¹ for refuge.⁴⁷³³

14  Ye shall give^{5414 853} three⁷⁹⁶⁹ cities⁵⁸⁹² on this side^{4480 5676} Jordan,³³⁸³ and three⁷⁹⁶⁹ cities⁵⁸⁹² shall ye give⁵⁴¹⁴ in the land⁷⁷⁶ of Canaan,³⁶⁶⁷ which shall be¹⁹⁶¹ cities⁵⁸⁹² of refuge.⁴⁷³³

15  These⁴²⁸ six⁸³³⁷ cities⁵⁸⁹² shall be¹⁹⁶¹ a refuge,⁴⁷³³ both for the children¹¹²¹ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ and for the stranger,¹⁶¹⁶ and for the sojourner⁸⁴⁵³ among⁸⁴³² them: that every one³⁶⁰⁵ that killeth⁵²²¹ any person⁵³¹⁵ unawares⁷⁶⁸⁴ may flee⁵¹²⁷ thither.⁸⁰³³

16  And if⁵¹⁸ he smite⁵²²¹ him with an instrument³⁶²⁷ of iron,¹²⁷⁰ so that he die,⁴¹⁹¹ he¹⁹³¹ is a murderer:⁷⁵²³ the murderer⁷⁵²³ shall surely be put to death.^{4191 4191}

17  And if⁵¹⁸ he smite⁵²²¹ him with throwing³⁰²⁷ a stone,⁶⁸ wherewith⁸³⁴ he may die,⁴¹⁹¹ and he die,⁴¹⁹¹ he¹⁹³¹ is a murderer:⁷⁵²³ the murderer⁷⁵²³ shall surely be put to death.^{4191 4191}

18  Or¹⁷⁶ if he smite⁵²²¹ him with a hand³⁰²⁷ weapon³⁶²⁷ of wood,⁶⁰⁸⁶ wherewith⁸³⁴ he may die,⁴¹⁹¹ and he die,⁴¹⁹¹ he¹⁹³¹ is a murderer:⁷⁵²³ the murderer⁷⁵²³ shall surely be put to death.^{4191 4191}

19  The revenger¹³⁵⁰ of blood¹⁸¹⁸ himself¹⁹³¹ shall slay^{4191 853} the murderer:⁷⁵²³ when he meeteth⁶²⁹³ him, he¹⁹³¹ shall slay⁴¹⁹¹ him.

20  But if⁵¹⁸ he thrust¹⁹²⁰ him of hatred,⁸¹³⁵ or¹⁷⁶ hurl⁷⁹⁹³ at⁵⁹²¹ him by laying of wait,⁶⁶⁶⁰ that he die;⁴¹⁹¹

21  Or¹⁷⁶ in enmity³⁴² smite⁵²²¹ him with his hand,³⁰²⁷ that he die:⁴¹⁹¹ he that smote⁵²²¹ him shall surely be put to death;^{4191 4191} for he¹⁹³¹ is a murderer:⁷⁵²³ the revenger¹³⁵⁰ of blood¹⁸¹⁸ shall slay^{4191 853} the murderer,⁷⁵²³ when he meeteth⁶²⁹³ him.

22  But if⁵¹⁸ he thrust¹⁹²⁰ him suddenly⁶⁶²¹ without³⁸⁰⁸ enmity,³⁴² or¹⁷⁶ have cast⁷⁹⁹³ upon⁵⁹²¹ him any thing^{3605 3627} without³⁸⁰⁸ laying of wait,⁶⁶⁶⁰

23  Or¹⁷⁶ with any³⁶⁰⁵ stone,⁶⁸ wherewith⁸³⁴ a man may die,⁴¹⁹¹ seeing⁷²⁰⁰ him not,³⁸⁰⁸ and cast⁵³⁰⁷ it upon⁵⁹²¹ him, that he die,⁴¹⁹¹ and was not³⁸⁰⁸ his enemy,³⁴¹ neither³⁸⁰⁸ sought¹²⁴⁵ his harm:⁷⁴⁵¹

24  Then the congregation⁵⁷¹² shall judge⁸¹⁹⁹ between⁹⁹⁶ the slayer⁵²²¹ and the revenger¹³⁵⁰ of blood¹⁸¹⁸ according to⁵⁹²¹ these⁴²⁸ judgments:⁴⁹⁴¹

25  And the congregation⁵⁷¹² shall deliver^{5337 853} the slayer⁷⁵²³ out of the hand^{4480 3027} of the revenger¹³⁵⁰ of blood,¹⁸¹⁸ and the congregation⁵⁷¹² shall restore⁷⁷²⁵ him to⁴¹³ the city⁵⁸⁹² of his refuge,⁴⁷³³ whither^{834 8033} he was fled:⁵¹²⁷ and he shall abide³⁴²⁷ in it unto⁵⁷⁰⁴ the death⁴¹⁹⁴ of the high¹⁴¹⁹ priest,³⁵⁴⁸ which⁸³⁴ was anointed⁴⁸⁸⁶ with the holy⁶⁹⁴⁴ oil.⁸⁰⁸¹

26  But if⁵¹⁸ the slayer⁷⁵²³ shall at any time come without^{3318 3318 853} the border¹³⁶⁶ of the city⁵⁸⁹² of his refuge,⁴⁷³³ whither^{834 8033} he was fled;⁵¹²⁷

27  And the revenger¹³⁵⁰ of blood¹⁸¹⁸ find⁴⁶⁷² him without^{4480 2351} the borders¹³⁶⁶ of the city⁵⁸⁹² of his refuge,⁴⁷³³ and the revenger¹³⁵⁰ of blood¹⁸¹⁸ kill^{7523 853} the slayer;⁷⁵²³ he shall not³⁶⁹ be guilty of blood:¹⁸¹⁸

28  Because³⁵⁸⁸ he should have remained³⁴²⁷ in the city⁵⁸⁹² of his refuge⁴⁷³³ until⁵⁷⁰⁴ the death⁴¹⁹⁴ of the high¹⁴¹⁹ priest:³⁵⁴⁸ but after³¹⁰ the death⁴¹⁹⁴ of the high¹⁴¹⁹ priest³⁵⁴⁸ the slayer⁷⁵²³ shall return⁷⁷²⁵ into⁴¹³ the land⁷⁷⁶ of his possession.²⁷²

29  So these⁴²⁸ things shall be¹⁹⁶¹ for a statute²⁷⁰⁸ of judgment⁴⁹⁴¹ unto you throughout your generations¹⁷⁵⁵ in all³⁶⁰⁵ your dwellings.⁴¹⁸⁶

30  Whoso³⁶⁰⁵ killeth⁵²²¹ any person,^{5315 853} the murderer⁷⁵²³ shall be put to death⁷⁵²³ by the mouth⁶³¹⁰ of witnesses:⁵⁷⁰⁷ but one²⁵⁹ witness⁵⁷⁰⁷ shall not³⁸⁰⁸ testify⁶⁰³⁰ against any person⁵³¹⁵ to cause him to die.⁴¹⁹¹

31  Moreover ye shall take³⁹⁴⁷ no³⁸⁰⁸ satisfaction³⁷²⁴ for the life⁵³¹⁵ of a murderer,⁷⁵²³ which⁸³⁴ is guilty⁷⁵⁶³ of death:⁴¹⁹¹ but³⁵⁸⁸ he shall be surely put to death.^{4191 4191}

32  And ye shall take³⁹⁴⁷ no³⁸⁰⁸ satisfaction³⁷²⁴ for him that is fled⁵¹²⁷ to⁴¹³ the city⁵⁸⁹² of his refuge,⁴⁷³³ that he should come again⁷⁷²⁵ to dwell³⁴²⁷ in the land,⁷⁷⁶ until⁵⁷⁰⁴ the death⁴¹⁹⁴ of the priest.³⁵⁴⁸

33  So ye shall not³⁸⁰⁸ pollute^{2610 853} the land⁷⁷⁶ wherein⁸³⁴ ye⁸⁵⁹ are: for³⁵⁸⁸ blood¹⁸¹⁸ it¹⁹³¹ defileth^{2610 853} the land:⁷⁷⁶ and the land⁷⁷⁶ cannot³⁸⁰⁸ be cleansed³⁷²² of the blood¹⁸¹⁸ that⁸³⁴ is shed⁸²¹⁰ therein, but^{3588 518} by the blood¹⁸¹⁸ of him that shed⁸²¹⁰ it.

34  Defile²⁹³⁰ not³⁸⁰⁸ therefore ⁸⁵³ the land⁷⁷⁶ which⁸³⁴ ye⁸⁵⁹ shall inhabit,³⁴²⁷ wherein^{834 8432} I⁵⁸⁹ dwell:⁷⁹³¹ for³⁵⁸⁸ I⁵⁸⁹ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ dwell⁷⁹³¹ among⁸⁴³² the children¹¹²¹ of Israel.³⁴⁷⁸

1 καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν ἐπὶ δυσμῶν Μωαβ παρὰ τὸν Ιορδάνην κατὰ Ιεριχω λέγων

2 σύνταξον τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ καὶ δώσουσιν τοῖς Λευίταις ἀπὸ τῶν κλήρων κατασχέσεως αὐτῶν πόλεις κατοικεῖν καὶ τὰ προάστεια τῶν πόλεων κύκλῳ αὐτῶν δώσουσιν τοῖς Λευίταις

3 καὶ ἔσονται αὐτοῖς αἱ πόλεις κατοικεῖν καὶ τὰ ἀφορίσματα αὐτῶν ἔσται τοῖς κτήνεσιν αὐτῶν καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς τετράποσιν αὐτῶν

4 καὶ τὰ συγκυροῦντα τῶν πόλεων ἃς δώσετε τοῖς Λευίταις ἀπὸ τείχους τῆς πόλεως καὶ ἔξω δισχιλίους πήχεις κύκλῳ

5 καὶ μετρήσεις ἔξω τῆς πόλεως τὸ κλίτος τὸ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς δισχιλίους πήχεις καὶ τὸ κλίτος τὸ πρὸς λίβα δισχιλίους πήχεις καὶ τὸ κλίτος τὸ πρὸς θάλασσαν δισχιλίους πήχεις καὶ τὸ κλίτος τὸ πρὸς βορρᾶν δισχιλίους πήχεις καὶ ἡ πόλις μέσον τούτου ἔσται ὑμῖν καὶ τὰ ὅμορα τῶν πόλεων

6 καὶ τὰς πόλεις δώσετε τοῖς Λευίταις τὰς ἓξ πόλεις τῶν φυγαδευτηρίων ἃς δώσετε φεύγειν ἐκεῖ τῷ φονεύσαντι καὶ πρὸς ταύταις τεσσαράκοντα καὶ δύο πόλεις

7 πάσας τὰς πόλεις δώσετε τοῖς Λευίταις τεσσαράκοντα καὶ ὀκτὼ πόλεις ταύτας καὶ τὰ προάστεια αὐτῶν

8 καὶ τὰς πόλεις ἃς δώσετε ἀπὸ τῆς κατασχέσεως υἱῶν Ισραηλ ἀπὸ τῶν τὰ πολλὰ πολλὰ καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ἐλαττόνων ἐλάττω ἕκαστος κατὰ τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ ἣν κληρονομήσουσιν δώσουσιν ἀπὸ τῶν πόλεων τοῖς Λευίταις

9 καὶ ἐλάλησεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων

10 λάλησον τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτούς ὑμεῖς διαβαίνετε τὸν Ιορδάνην εἰς γῆν Χανααν

11 καὶ διαστελεῖτε ὑμῖν αὐτοῖς πόλεις φυγαδευτήρια ἔσται ὑμῖν φυγεῖν ἐκεῖ τὸν φονευτήν πᾶς ὁ πατάξας ψυχὴν ἀκουσίως

12 καὶ ἔσονται αἱ πόλεις ὑμῖν φυγαδευτήρια ἀπὸ ἀγχιστεύοντος τὸ αἷμα καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀποθάνῃ ὁ φονεύων ἕως ἂν στῇ ἔναντι τῆς συναγωγῆς εἰς κρίσιν

13 καὶ αἱ πόλεις ἃς δώσετε τὰς ἓξ πόλεις φυγαδευτήρια ἔσονται ὑμῖν

14 τὰς τρεῖς πόλεις δώσετε ἐν τῷ πέραν τοῦ Ιορδάνου καὶ τὰς τρεῖς πόλεις δώσετε ἐν γῇ Χανααν

15 φυγάδιον ἔσται τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ καὶ τῷ προσηλύτῳ καὶ τῷ παροίκῳ τῷ ἐν ὑμῖν ἔσονται αἱ πόλεις αὗται εἰς φυγαδευτήριον φυγεῖν ἐκεῖ παντὶ πατάξαντι ψυχὴν ἀκουσίως

16 ἐὰν δὲ ἐν σκεύει σιδήρου πατάξῃ αὐτόν καὶ τελευτήσῃ φονευτής ἐστιν θανάτῳ θανατούσθω ὁ φονευτής

17 ἐὰν δὲ ἐν λίθῳ ἐκ χειρός ἐν ᾧ ἀποθανεῖται ἐν αὐτῷ πατάξῃ αὐτόν καὶ ἀποθάνῃ φονευτής ἐστιν θανάτῳ θανατούσθω ὁ φονευτής

18 ἐὰν δὲ ἐν σκεύει ξυλίνῳ ἐκ χειρός ἐξ οὗ ἀποθανεῖται ἐν αὐτῷ πατάξῃ αὐτόν καὶ ἀποθάνῃ φονευτής ἐστιν θανάτῳ θανατούσθω ὁ φονευτής

19 ὁ ἀγχιστεύων τὸ αἷμα οὗτος ἀποκτενεῖ τὸν φονεύσαντα ὅταν συναντήσῃ αὐτῷ οὗτος ἀποκτενεῖ αὐτόν

20 ἐὰν δὲ δι᾽ ἔχθραν ὤσῃ αὐτὸν καὶ ἐπιρρίψῃ ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν πᾶν σκεῦος ἐξ ἐνέδρου καὶ ἀποθάνῃ

21 ἢ διὰ μῆνιν ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν τῇ χειρί καὶ ἀποθάνῃ θανάτῳ θανατούσθω ὁ πατάξας φονευτής ἐστιν θανάτῳ θανατούσθω ὁ φονεύων ὁ ἀγχιστεύων τὸ αἷμα ἀποκτενεῖ τὸν φονεύσαντα ἐν τῷ συναντῆσαι αὐτῷ

22 ἐὰν δὲ ἐξάπινα οὐ δι᾽ ἔχθραν ὤσῃ αὐτὸν ἢ ἐπιρρίψῃ ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν πᾶν σκεῦος οὐκ ἐξ ἐνέδρου

23 ἢ παντὶ λίθῳ ἐν ᾧ ἀποθανεῖται ἐν αὐτῷ οὐκ εἰδώς καὶ ἐπιπέσῃ ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν καὶ ἀποθάνῃ αὐτὸς δὲ οὐκ ἐχθρὸς αὐτοῦ ἦν οὐδὲ ζητῶν κακοποιῆσαι αὐτόν

24 καὶ κρινεῖ ἡ συναγωγὴ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ πατάξαντος καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ ἀγχιστεύοντος τὸ αἷμα κατὰ τὰ κρίματα ταῦτα

25 καὶ ἐξελεῖται ἡ συναγωγὴ τὸν φονεύσαντα ἀπὸ τοῦ ἀγχιστεύοντος τὸ αἷμα καὶ ἀποκαταστήσουσιν αὐτὸν ἡ συναγωγὴ εἰς τὴν πόλιν τοῦ φυγαδευτηρίου αὐτοῦ οὗ κατέφυγεν καὶ κατοικήσει ἐκεῖ ἕως ἂν ἀποθάνῃ ὁ ἱερεὺς ὁ μέγας ὃν ἔχρισαν αὐτὸν τῷ ἐλαίῳ τῷ ἁγίῳ

26 ἐὰν δὲ ἐξόδῳ ἐξέλθῃ ὁ φονεύσας τὰ ὅρια τῆς πόλεως εἰς ἣν κατέφυγεν ἐκεῖ

27 καὶ εὕρῃ αὐτὸν ὁ ἀγχιστεύων τὸ αἷμα ἔξω τῶν ὁρίων τῆς πόλεως καταφυγῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ φονεύσῃ ὁ ἀγχιστεύων τὸ αἷμα τὸν φονεύσαντα οὐκ ἔνοχός ἐστιν

28 ἐν γὰρ τῇ πόλει τῆς καταφυγῆς κατοικείτω ἕως ἂν ἀποθάνῃ ὁ ἱερεὺς ὁ μέγας καὶ μετὰ τὸ ἀποθανεῖν τὸν ἱερέα τὸν μέγαν ἐπαναστραφήσεται ὁ φονεύσας εἰς τὴν γῆν τῆς κατασχέσεως αὐτοῦ

29 καὶ ἔσται ταῦτα ὑμῖν εἰς δικαίωμα κρίματος εἰς τὰς γενεὰς ὑμῶν ἐν πάσαις ταῖς κατοικίαις ὑμῶν

30 πᾶς πατάξας ψυχήν διὰ μαρτύρων φονεύσεις τὸν φονεύσαντα καὶ μάρτυς εἷς οὐ μαρτυρήσει ἐπὶ ψυχὴν ἀποθανεῖν

31 καὶ οὐ λήμψεσθε λύτρα περὶ ψυχῆς παρὰ τοῦ φονεύσαντος τοῦ ἐνόχου ὄντος ἀναιρεθῆναι θανάτῳ γὰρ θανατωθήσεται

32 οὐ λήμψεσθε λύτρα τοῦ φυγεῖν εἰς πόλιν τῶν φυγαδευτηρίων τοῦ πάλιν κατοικεῖν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἕως ἂν ἀποθάνῃ ὁ ἱερεὺς ὁ μέγας

33 καὶ οὐ μὴ φονοκτονήσητε τὴν γῆν εἰς ἣν ὑμεῖς κατοικεῖτε τὸ γὰρ αἷμα τοῦτο φονοκτονεῖ τὴν γῆν καὶ οὐκ ἐξιλασθήσεται ἡ γῆ ἀπὸ τοῦ αἵματος τοῦ ἐκχυθέντος ἐπ᾽ αὐτῆς ἀλλ᾽ ἐπὶ τοῦ αἵματος τοῦ ἐκχέοντος

34 καὶ οὐ μιανεῖτε τὴν γῆν ἐφ᾽ ἧς κατοικεῖτε ἐπ᾽ αὐτῆς ἐφ᾽ ἧς ἐγὼ κατασκηνώσω ἐν ὑμῖν ἐγὼ γάρ εἰμι κύριος κατασκηνῶν ἐν μέσῳ τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ

1 Hæc quoque locutus est Dominus ad Moysen in campes tribus Moab supra Jordanem, contra Jericho:

2 Præcipe filiis Israël ut dent Levitis de possessionibus suis

3 urbes ad habitandum, et suburbana earum per circuitum: ut ipsi in oppidis maneant, et suburbana sint pecoribus ac jumentis:

4 quæ a muris civitatum forinsecus, per circuitum, mille passuum spatio tendentur.

5 Contra orientem duo millia erunt cubiti, et contra meridiem similiter erunt duo millia: ad mare quoque, quod respicit ad occidentem, eadem mensura erit, et septentrionalis plaga æquali termino finietur, eruntque urbes in medio, et foris suburbana.

6 De ipsis autem oppidis, quæ Levitis dabitis, sex erunt in fugitivorum auxilia separata, ut fugiat ad ea qui fuderit sanguinem: et exceptis his, alia quadraginta duo oppida,

7 id est, simul quadraginta octo cum suburbanis suis.

8 Ipsæque urbes, quæ dabuntur de possessionibus filiorum Israël, ab his qui plus habent, plures auferentur: et qui minus, pauciores: singuli juxta mensuram hæreditatis suæ dabunt oppida Levitis.

9 Ait Dominus ad Moysen:

10 Loquere filiis Israël, et dices ad eos: Quando transgressi fueritis Jordanem in terram Chanaan,

11 decernite quæ urbes esse debeant in præsidia fugitivorum, qui nolentes sanguinem fuderint:

12 in quibus cum fuerit profugus, cognatus occisi non poterit eum occidere, donec stet in conspectu multitudinis, et causa illius judicetur.

13 De ipsis autem urbibus, quæ ad fugitivorum subsidia separantur,

14 tres erunt trans Jordanem, et tres in terra Chanaan,

15 tam filiis Israël quam advenis atque peregrinis, ut confugiat ad eas qui nolens sanguinem fuderit.

16 Si quis ferro percusserit, et mortuus fuerit qui percussus est, reus erit homicidii, et ipse morietur.

17 Si lapidem jecerit, et ictus occubuerit, similiter punietur.

18 Si ligno percussus interierit, percussoris sanguine vindicabitur.

19 Propinquus occisi, homicidam interficiet: statim ut apprehenderit eum, interficiet.

20 Si per odium quis hominem impulerit, vel jecerit quippiam in eum per insidias:

21 aut cum esset inimicus, manu percusserit, et ille mortuus fuerit: percussor homicidii reus erit: cognatus occisi statim ut invenerit eum, jugulabit.

22 Quod si fortuitu, et absque odio

23 et inimicitiis quidquam horum fecerit,

24 et hoc audiente populo fuerit comprobatum, atque inter percussorem et propinquum sanguinis quæstio ventilata:

25 liberabitur innocens de ultoris manu, et reducetur per sententiam in urbem, ad quam confugerat, manebitque ibi, donec sacerdos magnus, qui oleo sancto unctus est, moriatur.

26 Si interfector extra fines urbium, quæ exulibus deputatæ sunt,

27 fuerit inventus, et percussus ab eo qui ultor est sanguinis: absque noxa erit qui eum occiderit.

28 Debuerat enim profugus usque ad mortem pontificis in urbe residere. Postquam autem ille obierit, homicida revertetur in terram suam.

29 Hæc sempiterna erunt, et legitima in cunctis habitationibus vestris.

30 Homicida sub testibus punietur: ad unius testimonium nullus condemnabitur.

31 Non accipietis pretium ab eo qui reus est sanguinis, statim et ipse morietur.

32 Exules et profugi ante mortem pontificis nullo modo in urbes suas reverti poterunt,

33 ne polluatis terram habitationis vestræ, quæ insontium cruore maculatur: nec aliter expiari potest, nisi per ejus sanguinem, qui alterius sanguinem fuderit.

34 Atque ita emundabitur vestra possessio me commorante vobiscum. Ego enim sum Dominus qui habito inter filios Israël.
