约书亚记 20
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
World English Bible
1耶和华晓谕 约书亚 说：
1The LORD spoke to Joshua, saying,
2「你吩咐 以色列 人说：你们要照着我借 摩西 所晓谕你们的，为自己设立逃城，
2“Speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘Assign the cities of refuge, of which I spoke to you by Moses,
3使那无心而误杀人的，可以逃到那里。这些城可以作你们逃避报血仇人的地方。
3that the man slayer who kills any person accidentally or unintentionally may flee there. They shall be to you for a refuge from the avenger of blood.
4那杀人的要逃到这些城中的一座城，站在城门口，将他的事情说给城内的长老们听。他们就把他收进城里，给他地方，使他住在他们中间。
4He shall flee to one of those cities, and shall stand at the entrance of the gate of the city, and declare his case in the ears of the elders of that city. They shall take him into the city with them, and give him a place, that he may live among them.
5若是报血仇的追了他来，长老不可将他交在报血仇的手里；因为他是素无仇恨，无心杀了人的。
5If the avenger of blood pursues him, then they shall not deliver up the man slayer into his hand; because he struck his neighbor unintentionally, and didn’t hate him before.
6他要住在那城里，站在会众面前听审判，等到那时的大祭司死了，杀人的才可以回到本城本家，就是他所逃出来的那城。」
6He shall dwell in that city until he stands before the congregation for judgment, until the death of the high priest that shall be in those days. Then the man slayer shall return, and come to his own city, and to his own house, to the city he fled from.’”
7于是， 以色列 人在 拿弗他利 山地分定 加利利 的 基低斯 ；在 以法莲 山地分定 示剑 ；在 犹大 山地分定 基列·亚巴 （ 基列·亚巴 就是 希伯 ）；
7They set apart Kedesh in Galilee in the hill country of Naphtali, Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim, and Kiriath Arba (also called Hebron) in the hill country of Judah.
8又在 约旦河 外 耶利哥 东，从 吕便 支派中，在旷野的平原，设立 比悉 ；从 迦得 支派中设立 基列 的 拉末 ；从 玛拿西 支派中设立 巴珊 的 哥兰 。
8Beyond the Jordan at Jericho eastward, they assigned Bezer in the wilderness in the plain out of the tribe of Reuben, Ramoth in Gilead out of the tribe of Gad, and Golan in Bashan out of the tribe of Manasseh.
9这都是为 以色列 众人和在他们中间寄居的外人所分定的城邑，使误杀人的都可以逃到那里，不死在报血仇人的手中，等他站在会众面前 听审判 。
9These were the appointed cities for all the children of Israel, and for the alien who lives among them, that whoever kills any person unintentionally might flee there, and not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, until he stands trial before the congregation.
