1 “ When the Lord your God cuts off the nations, whose land the Lord your God gives you, and you dispossess them and settle in their cities and in their houses,

Oo markii Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu wada gooyo quruumaha Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu dalkooda idin siinayo oo aad meeshooda gashaan ee aad degtaan magaalooyinkooda iyo guryahooda,

2 y ou shall set aside three cities for yourself in the midst of your land, which the Lord your God gives you to possess.

markaas waa inaad saddex magaalo gaar kaga dhex dhigataan dalkiinna uu Rabbiga Ilaahiina ahu idiin siinayo inaad hantidaan.

3 Y ou shall prepare the roads for yourself, and divide into three parts the territory of your land which the Lord your God will give you as a possession, so that any manslayer may flee there.

Oo waa inaad jidka hagaagsataan oo dalka Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu idin dhaxalsiinayona soohdimihiisa waxaad u qaybisaan saddex meelood in gacankudhiigle kastaaba halkaas ku cararo.

4 “ Now this is the case of the manslayer who may flee there and live: when he kills his friend unintentionally, not hating him previously—

Oo gacankudhiiglaha halkaas ku cararayo oo noolaanayo waa caynkan: oo waa kii deriskiisa kama' ku dilay isagoo aan hore u necbayn,

5 a s when a man goes into the forest with his friend to cut wood, and his hand swings the axe to cut down the tree, and the iron head slips off the handle and strikes his friend so that he dies—he may flee to one of these cities and live;

sida markii nin deriskiis duurka ugu raaco inay qoryo soo jaraan, oo gacantiisu ay faaska qaadato inuu geedka ku jaro, oo markaas birtu intay daabka ka siibato ku dhacdo kii deriskiisa ahaa ee uu saas ku dhinto, markaas isagu waa inuu ku cararaa magaalooyinkaas middood si uu ku noolaado,

6 o therwise the avenger of blood might pursue the manslayer in the heat of his anger, and overtake him, because the way is long, and take his life, though he was not deserving of death, since he had not hated him previously.

waaba intaasoo ka aardoonka ahu uu gacankudhiiglaha raacdaystaa intuu qalbigiisu kulul yahay, oo uu gaadhaa jidka fog aawadiis, oo uu markaas dilaa isagoo aan dhimasho istaahilin, maxaa yeelay, isagu hore uma uu necbayn.

7 T herefore, I command you, saying, ‘You shall set aside three cities for yourself.’

Oo sidaas daraaddeed waxaan idinku amrayaa oo idinku leeyahay, Waa inaad saddex magaalo gaar ka dhigataan.

8 “ If the Lord your God enlarges your territory, just as He has sworn to your fathers, and gives you all the land which He promised to give your fathers—

Haddii Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu u ballaadhiyo soohdimihiinna, siduu awowayaashiin ugu dhaartay, oo uu idin wada siiyo dalkii uu awowayaashiin u ballanqaaday inuu iyaga siinayo oo dhan,

9 i f you carefully observe all this commandment which I command you today, to love the Lord your God, and to walk in His ways always— then you shall add three more cities for yourself, besides these three.

oo haddaad xajisaan oo wada yeeshaan amarkan aan maanta idinku amrayo oo dhan, inaad Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ah jeclaataan oo aad weligiin jidadkiisa ku socotaan, kolkaas saddex magaalo oo kale oo aan saddexdan ahayn waa inaad ku darsataan,

10 S o innocent blood will not be shed in the midst of your land which the Lord your God gives you as an inheritance, and bloodguiltiness be on you.

si aan dhiig aan xaq qabinu loogu dhex daadin dalkii Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu idin siinayo, waaba intaasoo dhiig idin saarnaadaa.

11 “ But if there is a man who hates his neighbor and lies in wait for him and rises up against him and strikes him so that he dies, and he flees to one of these cities,

Laakiinse haddii nin deriskiisa neceb yahay ee uu isaga meel ugu gabbado oo uu markaas ku soo boodo oo uu ku dhufto nabar uu u dhinto, kolkaas hadduu u cararo magaalooyinkaas middood,

12 t hen the elders of his city shall send and take him from there and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood, that he may die.

waayeellada magaaladiisu waa inay cid u soo diraan, oo halkaas ka soo wadaan, oo waa inay kii aardoonka ahaa gacantiisa ku ridaan isagu ha dhintee.

13 Y ou shall not pity him, but you shall purge the blood of the innocent from Israel, that it may go well with you. Laws of Landmark and Testimony

Oo isaga ishiinnu yaanay u nixin, laakiinse dhiigga aan xaqa qabin reer binu Israa'iil dhexdooda waa inaad ka fogaysaan, si aad u nabdoonaataan.

14 “ You shall not move your neighbor’s boundary mark, which the ancestors have set, in your inheritance which you will inherit in the land that the Lord your God gives you to possess.

Midkiinna waa inuusan innaba durkin soohdinta deriskiisa oo hore loo dhex qotomiyey dhaxalkiinna aad dhaxli doontaan ee dalka Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu uu idiin siinayo inaad hantidaan. Markhaatiyaal

15 “ A single witness shall not rise up against a man on account of any iniquity or any sin which he has committed; on the evidence of two or three witnesses a matter shall be confirmed.

Qof keliyahu yuusan nin ugu marag furin xumaan ama dembi uu dembaabay toona, laakiinse wax kastaba ha lagu adkeeyo afka laba markhaati ama saddex markhaati.

16 I f a malicious witness rises up against a man to accuse him of wrongdoing,

Haddii markhaati aan xaq ahaynu uu nin ku kaco oo uu ku marag furo inuu xumaan sameeyey,

17 t hen both the men who have the dispute shall stand before the Lord, before the priests and the judges who will be in office in those days.

markaas labada nin oo muranku ka dhexeeyaa waa inay soo istaagaan Rabbiga hortiisa iyo wadaaddada iyo xaakinnada waagaas jiri doono hortooda,

18 T he judges shall investigate thoroughly, and if the witness is a false witness and he has accused his brother falsely,

oo xaakinnadu waa inay xaalkaas aad u baadhaan, oo bal eeg, haddii markhaatigu yahay markhaati been ah, oo uu walaalkiis si been ah ugu marag furay,

19 t hen you shall do to him just as he had intended to do to his brother. Thus you shall purge the evil from among you.

markaas waa inaad ku samaysaan siduu damcay inuu walaalkiis ku sameeyo, oo sidaas waa inaad dhexdiinna sharka uga saartaan.

20 T he rest will hear and be afraid, and will never again do such an evil thing among you.

Oo kuwa hadhay xaalkaas way maqli doonaan oo cabsan doonaan, oo markaas ka dibna innaba dhexdiinna shar dambe oo caynkaas ah kuma samayn doonaan.

21 T hus you shall not show pity: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.

Oo ishiinnu yaanay ninna u nixin, nafu naf ha u baxdo, ilna il ha loo rido, iligna ilig, gacanna gacan ha loo gooyo, cagna cag.
