35 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage Biblia Hebraica

9And Yahweh said to Moses,Cities of refuge. Nu.35.9-34 | Dt.19.1-13 | Jos.20.1-9וַיְדַבֵּר יְהוָה אֶל־מֹשֶׁה לֵּאמֹר׃
10"Say to the people of Israel, When you cross the Jordan into the land of Canaan, דַּבֵּר אֶל־בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵהֶם כִּי אַתֶּם עֹבְרִים אֶת־הַיַּרְדֵּן אַרְצָה כְּנָעַן׃
11then you shall select cities to be cities of refuge for you, that the manslayer who kills any person without intent may flee there. וְהִקְרִיתֶם לָכֶם עָרִים עָרֵי מִקְלָט תִּהְיֶינָה לָכֶם וְנָס שָׁמָּה רֹצֵחַ מַכֵּה־נֶפֶשׁ בִּשְׁגָגָה׃
12The cities shall be for you a refuge from the avenger, that the manslayer may not die until he stands before the congregation for judgment. וְהָיוּ לָכֶם הֶעָרִים לְמִקְלָט מִגֹּאֵל וְלֹא יָמוּת הָרֹצֵחַ עַד־עָמְדֹו לִפְנֵי הָעֵדָה לַמִּשְׁפָּט׃
13And the cities which you give shall be your six cities of refuge. וְהֶעָרִים אֲשֶׁר תִּתֵּנוּ שֵׁשׁ־עָרֵי מִקְלָט תִּהְיֶינָה לָכֶם׃
14You shall give three cities beyond the Jordan, and three cities in the land of Canaan, to be cities of refuge. אֵת שְׁלֹשׁ הֶעָרִים תִּתְּנוּ מֵעֵבֶר לַיַּרְדֵּן וְאֵת שְׁלֹשׁ הֶעָרִים תִּתְּנוּ בְּאֶרֶץ כְּנָעַן עָרֵי מִקְלָט תִּהְיֶינָה׃
15These six cities shall be for refuge for the people of Israel, and for the stranger and for the sojourner among them, that any one who kills any person without intent may flee there. לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְלַגֵּר וְלַתֹּושָׁב בְּתֹוכָם תִּהְיֶינָה שֵׁשׁ־הֶעָרִים הָאֵלֶּה לְמִקְלָט לָנוּס שָׁמָּה כָּל־מַכֵּה־נֶפֶשׁ בִּשְׁגָגָה׃
16"But if he struck him down with an instrument of iron, so that he died, he is a murderer; the murderer shall be put to death. וְאִם־בִּכְלִי בַרְזֶל הִכָּהוּ וַיָּמֹת רֹצֵחַ הוּא מֹות יוּמַת הָרֹצֵחַ׃
17And if he struck him down with a stone in the hand, by which a man may die, and he died, he is a murderer; the murderer shall be put to death. וְאִם בְּאֶבֶן יָד אֲשֶׁר־יָמוּת בָּהּ הִכָּהוּ וַיָּמֹת רֹצֵחַ הוּא מֹות יוּמַת הָרֹצֵחַ׃
18Or if he struck him down with a weapon of wood in the hand, by which a man may die, and he died, he is a murderer; the murderer shall be put to death. אֹו בִּכְלִי עֵץ־יָד אֲשֶׁר־יָמוּת בֹּו הִכָּהוּ וַיָּמֹת רֹצֵחַ הוּא מֹות יוּמַת הָרֹצֵחַ׃
19The avenger of blood shall himself put the murderer to death; when he meets him, he shall put him to death. גֹּאֵל הַדָּם הוּא יָמִית אֶת־הָרֹצֵחַ בְּפִגְעֹו־בֹו הוּא יְמִיתֶנּוּ׃
20And if he stabbed him from hatred, or hurled at him, lying in wait, so that he died, וְאִם־בְּשִׂנְאָה יֶהְדָּפֶנּוּ אֹו־הִשְׁלִיךְ עָלָיו בִּצְדִיָּה וַיָּמֹת׃
21or in enmity struck him down with his hand, so that he died, then he who struck the blow shall be put to death; he is a murderer; the avenger of blood shall put the murderer to death, when he meets him. אֹו בְאֵיבָה הִכָּהוּ בְיָדֹו וַיָּמֹת מֹות־יוּמַת הַמַּכֶּה רֹצֵחַ הוּא גֹּאֵל הַדָּם יָמִית אֶת־הָרֹצֵחַ בְּפִגְעֹו־בֹו׃
22"But if he stabbed him suddenly without enmity, or hurled anything on him without lying in wait, וְאִם־בְּפֶתַע בְּלֹא־אֵיבָה הֲדָפֹו אֹו־הִשְׁלִיךְ עָלָיו כָּל־כְּלִי בְּלֹא צְדִיָּה׃
23or used a stone, by which a man may die, and without seeing him cast it upon him, so that he died, though he was not his enemy, and did not seek his harm; אֹו בְכָל־אֶבֶן אֲשֶׁר־יָמוּת בָּהּ בְּלֹא רְאֹות וַיַּפֵּל עָלָיו וַיָּמֹת וְהוּא לֹא־אֹויֵב לֹו וְלֹא מְבַקֵּשׁ רָעָתֹו׃
24then the congregation shall judge between the manslayer and the avenger of blood, in accordance with these ordinances; וְשָׁפְטוּ הָעֵדָה בֵּין הַמַּכֶּה וּבֵין גֹּאֵל הַדָּם עַל הַמִּשְׁפָּטִים הָאֵלֶּה׃
25and the congregation shall rescue the manslayer from the hand of the avenger of blood, and the congregation shall restore him to his city of refuge, to which he had fled, and he shall live in it until the death of the high priest who was anointed with the holy oil. וְהִצִּילוּ הָעֵדָה אֶת־הָרֹצֵחַ מִיַּד גֹּאֵל הַדָּם וְהֵשִׁיבוּ אֹתֹו הָעֵדָה אֶל־עִיר מִקְלָטֹו אֲשֶׁר־נָס שָׁמָּה וְיָשַׁב בָּהּ עַד־מֹות הַכֹּהֵן הַגָּדֹל אֲשֶׁר־מָשַׁח אֹתֹו בְּשֶׁמֶן הַקֹּדֶשׁ׃
26But if the manslayer shall at any time go beyond the bounds of his city of refuge to which he fled, וְאִם־יָצֹא יֵצֵא הָרֹצֵחַ אֶת־גְּבוּל עִיר מִקְלָטֹו אֲשֶׁר יָנוּס שָׁמָּה׃
27and the avenger of blood finds him outside the bounds of his city of refuge, and the avenger of blood slays the manslayer, he shall not be guilty of blood. וּמָצָא אֹתֹו גֹּאֵל הַדָּם מִחוּץ לִגְבוּל עִיר מִקְלָטֹו וְרָצַח גֹּאֵל הַדָּם אֶת־הָרֹצֵחַ אֵין לֹו דָּם׃
28For the man must remain in his city of refuge until the death of the high priest; but after the death of the high priest the manslayer may return to the land of his possession. כִּי בְעִיר מִקְלָטֹו יֵשֵׁב עַד־מֹות הַכֹּהֵן הַגָּדֹל וְאַחֲרֵי מֹות הַכֹּהֵן הַגָּדֹל יָשׁוּב הָרֹצֵחַ אֶל־אֶרֶץ אֲחֻזָּתֹו׃

Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.

The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
