Numbers 35
1 And the Lord also spoke these things to Moses in the plains of Moab, above the Jordan, opposite Jericho:
A filayen Mowab, wajen Urdun, ɗaura da Yeriko, Ubangiji ya yi magana da Musa ya ce,
2 “Instruct the sons of Israel, so that they may give to the Levites, from their possessions,
“Ka umarci Isra’ilawa su ba wa Lawiyawa garuruwan da za su zauna a ciki daga cikin gādon da Isra’ilawa za su mallaka. A kuma ba su wurin kiwo kewaye da garuruwan.
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.
Sa’an nan za su kasance da garuruwan da za su zauna, su sami fili, da kuma za su yi kiwon garkensu na shanu da tumaki da kuma sauran dabbobinsu.
4 The suburbs shall extend from the outer walls of the cities, all around, for the space of one thousand steps.
“Wuraren kiwo a kewayen garuruwan da za a ba wa Lawiyawa, girmansu zai zama mai fāɗin kamu dubu ɗaya daga katangar garin.
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.
A bayan garin, ka auna kamu dubu biyu a wajen gabas, kamu dubu biyu a wajen yamma, kamu dubu biyu wajen kudu, da kuma kamu dubu uku wajen arewa, a bar garin a tsakiya. Za su kasance da wannan a matsayin wurin kiwo na garuruwan.
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,
“A cikin biranen da za a ba Lawiyawa, shida daga cikin garuruwan za su zama biranen mafaka, inda wanda ya kashe mutum zai gudu yă je. Ban da wannan, a ba su waɗansu garuruwa arba’in da biyu.
7 that is, all together forty-eight with their suburbs.
Duka-duka dai a ba Lawiyawa garuruwa arba’in da takwas, tare da wuraren kiwonsu.
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.”
Garuruwan da za ku ba wa Lawiyawa daga ƙasar da Isra’ilawa suka mallaka, za a ba da su bisa girman gādon kowace kabila. Ka karɓi garuruwa masu yawa daga kabilar da take da garuruwa masu yawa, amma kaɗan daga kabilar da ba ta da garuruwa masu yawa.”
9 The Lord said to Moses:
Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa,
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,
“Ka yi magana da Isra’ilawa, ka ce musu, ‘Sa’ad da kuka haye Urdun zuwa Kan’ana,
11 discern which cities ought to be for the protection of fugitives who have shed blood unwillingly.
ku zaɓi waɗansu garuruwan da za su zama biranen mafakarku, inda wanda ya kashe mutum cikin kuskure zai iya gudu zuwa.
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.
Za su zama wuraren mafaka daga hannun mai bin hakki, don kada a kashe mai kisankai, tun ba a kai shi gaban shari’a, a gaban taron jama’a ba.
13 Then, among those cities which are separated for relief to fugitives,
Waɗannan garuruwa shida da aka bayar za su zama biranen mafakarku.
14 three shall be across the Jordan, and three in the land of Canaan,
A ba da uku a wannan gefe na Urdun, a kuma ba da uku a Kan’ana, su zama biranen mafaka.
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.
Waɗannan garuruwa shida za su zama wurin mafaka wa Isra’ilawa, baƙi da duk sauran mutanen da suke zama a cikinsu, saboda duk wanda ya kashe mutum cikin kuskure yă iya gudu zuwa.
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.
“‘In wani ya bugi wani da makami na ƙarfe har ya mutu, to, shi mai kisankai ne; sai a kashe mai kisankan nan.
17 If he will have thrown a stone, and he who has been struck lies dead, then he shall be punished similarly.
Ko kuwa in wani yana riƙe da dutsen da ya isa yă kashe mutum a hannunsa, ya kuma harbi wani da dutsen har ya mutu, to, shi mai kisankai ne, sai a kashe mai kisankan nan.
18 If he who has been struck with wood passes away, he shall be avenged by the blood of the one who struck him.
Ko kuwa wani yana da makami na itace a hannunsa da ya isa yă kashe mutum, ya kuma bugi wani da shi har ya mutu, shi ma mai kisankai ne, sai a kashe mai kisankan nan.
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.
Sai mai bin hakkin jinin yă kashe mai kisankan, sa’ad da ya sadu da mai kisankan, sai yă kashe shi.
20 If, out of hatred, anyone assaults a man, or throws anything at him with ill intent,
In saboda ƙiyayya, mutum ya laɓe, ya soke wani, ko ya jefe shi da wani abu da gangan har ya mutu,
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.
ko kuwa saboda ƙiyayya ya naushe shi har ya mutu, sai a kashe wannan mutumin da ya yi haka; shi mai kisankai ne. Sai mai bin hakkin jini yă kashe mai kisankan in ya same shi.
22 But if by chance, and without hatred
“‘Amma in cikin tsautsayi ne ya soke shi, ba don ƙiyayya ba, ko kuma ya jefe shi, ba da gangan ba,
23 or animosity, he will have done any of these things,
ko kuwa bai gan shi ba, ya jefa dutsen da zai kashe shi a kansa, ya kuwa mutu, to, da yake shi ba abokin gābansa ba ne, bai kuma yi nufi yă ji masa ba,
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,
dole taro su yi hukunci tsakanin mai laifin, da mai bin hakkin jini bisa waɗannan ƙa’idodi.
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.
Dole taro su kāre wanda ake zargi da kisa, daga mai bin hakkin jini. Su mai da shi birnin mafaka inda ya gudu ya tafi. Dole yă kasance a can sai mutuwar babban firist, wanda aka shafe da mai mai tsarki.
26 If the one who has killed has been found beyond the limits of the cities which have been assigned to the exiled,
“‘Amma in wanda ake zargin ya kuskura ya fita, ya kai iyakar birnin mafaka wadda ya gudu ya je,
27 and he has been struck by him who is avenging blood, he who killed him shall not be harmed.
idan mai bin hakkin jinin ya same shi a bayan gari, mai bin hakkin jinin zai iya kashe mai kisankai ɗin ba tare da wani laifi ba.
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.
Dole wanda ake zargin, yă kasance a birninsa na mafaka sai bayan mutuwa babban firist; sai bayan mutuwar babban firist ne kawai zai iya komo ga mallakarsa.
29 These things shall be a perpetual ordinance in all your habitations.
“‘Waɗannan su ne za su zama ƙa’idodin da za ku kasance da su, a dukan tsararraki masu zuwa.
30 The punishment of a murderer shall be based upon testimony; but no one shall be condemned upon the testimony of only one person.
“‘Kowa da ya kashe wani, za a kashe shi a matsayin mai kisankai, bisa ga shaidar shaidu. Amma kada a kashe wani bisa ga shaidar mutum ɗaya.
31 You shall not accept money from him who is guilty of blood, and he shall be put to death promptly.
“‘Kada a karɓi fansa don ran wanda ya yi kisankai, wanda ya cancanci mutuwa. Lalle ne a kashe shi.
32 Exiles and fugitives, prior to the death of the high priest, are by no means able to be returned to their own cities.
“‘Kada a karɓi fansa saboda wanda ya tsere zuwa birnin mafaka don yă koma yă zauna gidansa tun babban firist bai rasu ba.
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.
“‘Kada ku ƙazantar da ƙasar da kuke zama a ciki. Zub da jini yakan ƙazantar da ƙasa, ba a kuma iya yin kafara saboda wannan ƙasa da aka zub da jini, sai dai ta wurin jinin mutumin da ya zub da jinin.
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.”
Kada ku ƙazantar da ƙasar da kuke zama, wadda ni kuma nake zama a ciki, gama Ni Ubangiji, ina zama a cikin Isra’ilawa.’”
