Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1When the LORD your God has cut off the nations whose land He is giving you, and when you have driven them out and settled in their cities and houses,
1A IA hoopau o Iehova kou Akua i na lahuikanaka, no lakou ka aina a Iehova kou Akua e haawi mai ai nou, a lilo ko lakou wahi nou, a e noho iho oe ma ko lakou kulanakauhale, a maloko hoi o ko lakou mau hale;
2then you are to set apart for yourselves three cities within the land that the LORD your God is giving you to possess.
2Alaila e hookaawale oe i na kulanakauhale ekolu nou iwaena o kou aina a Iehova kou Akua e haawi lilo mai ai nou.
3You are to build roads for yourselves and divide into three regions the land that the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, so that any manslayer can flee to these cities.
3E hoomakaukau i alanui nou, a o kou aina a Iehova kou Akua i hoolilo mai ai nou, o kau ia e mahele i na mokuna ekolu, i holo ai na pepehi kanaka a pau ilaila.
4Now this is the situation regarding the manslayer who flees to one of these cities to save his life, having killed his neighbor accidentally, without intending to harm him:
4Eia ke ano o ka pepehi kanaka e holo ai ilaila i ola ia: o ka mea pepehi i kona hoalauna me ka ike ole, aole ia i inaina aku ia ia mamua;
5If he goes into the forest with his neighbor to cut timber and swings his axe to chop down a tree, but the blade flies off the handle and strikes and kills his neighbor, he may flee to one of these cities to save his life.
5A o ka mea e hele aku i ka ululaau me kona hoalauna e kua laau, a hahau iho kona lima me ke koilipi e oki i ka laau, a hemo aku la ke koilipi mai ke au aku, a pa i kona hoalauna a make ia, e holo aku ia i kekahi o ia mau kulanakauhale, a ola;
6Otherwise, the avenger of blood might pursue the manslayer in a rage, overtake him if the distance is great, and strike him dead though he did not deserve to die, since he did not intend any harm.
6O hahai auanei ka hoopai koko mahope o ka pepehi kanaka i kona wa e ukiuki ai kona naau, no ka mea, ua loihi ke ala, a pepehi ia ia; aole nae ona hewa e make ai, no ka mea, aole ia i inaina aku ia ia mamua.
7This is why I am commanding you to set apart for yourselves three cities.
7No ia mea, ke kauoha aku nei au ia oe, i ka i ana'ku, E hookaawale nou i na kulanakauhale ekolu.
8And if the LORD your God enlarges your territory, as He swore to your fathers, and gives you all the land He promised them,
8Ina e hoopalahalaha o Iehova kou Akua i kou mokuna e like me kana i hoohiki ai i kou mau kupuna, a haawi ia oe i ka aina a pau ana i olelo ni e haawi i kou mau kupuna:
9and if you carefully keep all these commandments I am giving you today, loving the LORD your God and walking in His ways at all times, then you are to add three more cities to these three.
9Ina paha oe e malama i keia mau kauoha a pau e hana aku ia mea a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oe i keia la, e aloha aku in Iehova kou Akua, a e hele ma kona aoao i na la a pau, alaila e hookaawale oe nou i na kulanakauhale hou ekolu me kela mau mea ekolu:
10Thus innocent blood will not be shed in the land that the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, so that you will not be guilty of bloodshed.
10I ole e hookaheia ke koko hala ole iloko o kou aina a Iehova kou Akua i hoolilo mai ai nou, a maluna ou ke koko.
11If, however, a man hates his neighbor and lies in wait, attacks him and kills him, and then flees to one of these cities,
11Aka, ina e inaina aku kekahi kanaka i kona hoalauna, a halua ia ia, a popoi ia ia, a hahau ia ia a make ia, a holo aku ia iloko o kekahi o keia mau kulanakauhale:
12the elders of his city must send for him, bring him back, and hand him over to the avenger of blood to die.
12Alaila e hoouna aku na lunakahiko o kona kulanakauhale, a e lawe ia ia mai laila mai. a haawi aku ia ia iloko o ka lima o ka mea hoopai koko, i make ai oia.
13You must show him no pity. You are to purge from Israel the guilt of shedding innocent blood, that it may go well with you.
13Mai minamina kou maka ia ia; aka, e huikala aku oe i ke koko hala ole mai ka Iseraela aku, i pomaikai ai oe.
14You must not move your neighbor’s boundary marker, which was set up by your ancestors to mark the inheritance you shall receive in the land that the LORD your God is giving you to possess.
14Mai hoonee aku oe i ka palena aina o kou hoalauna a ka poe kahiko i hoonoho ai ma kou aina, au i loaa ai ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua e hoolilo mai ai nou.
15A lone witness is not sufficient to establish any wrongdoing or sin against a man, regardless of what offense he may have committed. A matter must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.
15Mai ku mai ka mea hoike hookahi i ke kanaka, no kekahi hala, a no kekahi hewa i na hewa a pau ana i hana hewa ai: ma ka waha o na mea hoike elua, a o na mea hoike ekolu paha, e hookupaaia'i ia mea.
16If a false witness testifies against someone, accusing him of a crime,
16Ina paha e ku mai ka mea hoike hewa i kekahi kanaka, a hoike wahahee ia ia;
17both parties to the dispute must stand in the presence of the LORD, before the priests and judges who are in office at that time.
17Alaila, o laua, na mea hoopaapaa, e ku imua o Iehova, imua o na kahuna a me na lunakanawai e noho ana ia manawa;
18The judges shall investigate thoroughly, and if the witness is proven to be a liar who has falsely accused his brother,
18A e imi pono na lunakanawai: aia hoi, he wahahee ka mea nana i hoike, a ua hoike wahahee i kona hoahanau:
19you must do to him as he intended to do to his brother. So you must purge the evil from among you.
19Alaila e hana aku oukou ia ia e like me kana i manao ai e hana aku i kona hoahanau: a e lawe aku oe i ka hewa mai ou aku la.
20Then the rest of the people will hear and be afraid, and they will never again do anything so evil among you.
20A e hoolohe ka poe i koe, a makau hoi, aole e hana hou lakou e like me keia hewa iwaena o oukou.
21You must show no pity: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, and foot for foot.
21Mai minamina kou maka; he ola no ke ola; he maka no ka maka; he niho no ka niho; he lima no ka lima; he wawae no ka wawae.
