Deuteronomy 19:18 (YLT) Young's Literal Translation

1 `When Jehovah thy God doth cut off the nations, whose land Jehovah thy God is giving to thee, and thou hast succeeded them, and dwelt in their cities, and in their houses,
2 three cities thou dost separate for thee in the midst of thy land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee to possess it.
3 Thou dost prepare for thee the way, and hast divided into three parts the border of thy land which Jehovah thy God doth cause thee to inherit, and it hath been for the fleeing thither of every man-slayer.
4 `And this is the matter of the man-slayer who fleeth thither, and hath lived: He who smiteth his neighbour unknowingly, and is not hating him heretofore,
5 even he who cometh in with his neighbour into a forest to hew wood, and his hand hath driven with an axe to cut the tree, and the iron hath slipped from the wood, and hath met his neighbour, and he hath died -- he doth flee unto one of these cities, and hath lived,
6 lest the redeemer of blood pursue after the man-slayer when his heart is hot, and hath overtaken him (because the way is great), and hath smitten him -- the life, and he hath no sentence of death, for he is not hating him heretofore;
7 therefore I am commanding thee, saying, Three cities thou dost separate to thee.
8 `And if Jehovah thy God doth enlarge thy border, as He hath sworn to thy fathers, and hath given to thee all the land which He hath spoken to give to thy fathers --
9 when thou keepest all this command to do it, which I am commanding thee to-day, to love Jehovah thy God, and to walk in His ways all the days -- then thou hast added to thee yet three cities to these three;
10 and innocent blood is not shed in the midst of thy land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee -- an inheritance, and there hath been upon thee blood.
11 `And when a man is hating his neighbour, and hath lain in wait for him, and risen against him, and smitten him -- the life, and he hath died, and he hath fled unto one of these cities,
12 then the elders of his city have sent and taken him from thence, and given him into the hand of the redeemer of blood, and he hath died;
13 thine eye hath no pity on him, and thou hast put away the innocent blood from Israel, and it is well with thee.
14 `Thou dost not remove a border of thy neighbour, which they of former times have made, in thine inheritance, which thou dost inherit in the land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee to possess it.
15 `One witness doth not rise against a man for any iniquity, and for any sin, in any sin which he sinneth; by the mouth of two witnesses, or by the mouth of three witnesses, is a thing established.
16 `When a violent witness doth rise against a man, to testify against him apostacy,
17 then have both the men who have the strife stood before Jehovah, before the priests and the judges who are in those days,
18 and the judges have searched diligently, and lo, the witness is a false witness, a falsehood he hath testified against his brother:
19 `Then ye have done to him as he devised to do to his brother, and thou hast put away the evil thing out of thy midst,
20 and those who are left do hear and fear, and add not to do any more according to this evil thing in thy midst;
21 and thine eye doth not pity -- life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
1 When H3588 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hath cut off H3772 H853 the nations, H1471 whose H834 H853 land H776 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 giveth H5414 thee , and thou succeedest H3423 them , and dwellest H3427 in their cities, H5892 and in their houses; H1004
2 Thou shalt separate H914 three H7969 cities H5892 for thee in the midst H8432 of thy land, H776 which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 giveth H5414 thee to possess H3423 it.
3 Thou shalt prepare H3559 thee a way, H1870 and divide H8027 H853 the coasts H1366 of thy land, H776 which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 giveth thee to inherit, H5157 into three parts , that every H3605 slayer H7523 may H1961 flee H5127 thither. H8033
4 And this H2088 is the case H1697 of the slayer, H7523 which H834 shall flee H5127 thither, H8033 that he may live: H2425 Whoso H834 killeth H5221 H853 his neighbor H7453 ignorantly H1907 H1947 , whom he H1931 hated H8130 not H3808 in time H8032 past H4480 H8657 ;
5 As when a man H834 goeth H935 into the wood H3293 with H854 his neighbor H7453 to hew H2404 wood, H6086 and his hand H3027 fetcheth a stroke H5080 with the axe H1631 to cut down H3772 the tree, H6086 and the head H1270 slippeth H5394 from H4480 the helve, H6086 and lighteth upon H4672 H853 his neighbor, H7453 that he die; H4191 he H1931 shall flee H5127 unto H413 one H259 of those H428 cities, H5892 and live: H2425
6 Lest H6435 the avenger H1350 of the blood H1818 pursue H7291 H310 the slayer, H7523 while H3588 his heart H3824 is hot, H3179 and overtake H5381 him, because H3588 the way H1870 is long, H7235 and slay H5221 him; H5315 whereas he was not H369 worthy of death H4941 H4194 , inasmuch as H3588 he H1931 hated H8130 him not H3808 in time H8032 past H4480 H8543 .
7 Wherefore H5921 H3651 I H595 command H6680 thee, saying, H559 Thou shalt separate H914 three H7969 cities H5892 for thee.
8 And if H518 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 enlarge H7337 H853 thy coast, H1366 as H834 he hath sworn H7650 unto thy fathers, H1 and give H5414 thee H853 all H3605 the land H776 which H834 he promised H1696 to give H5414 unto thy fathers; H1
9 If H3588 thou shalt keep H8104 H853 all H3605 these H2063 commandments H4687 to do H6213 them, which H834 I H595 command H6680 thee this day, H3117 to love H157 H853 the LORD H3068 thy God, H430 and to walk H1980 ever H3605 H3117 in his ways; H1870 then shalt thou add H3254 three H7969 cities H5892 more H5750 for thee, beside H5921 these H428 three: H7969
10 That innocent H5355 blood H1818 be not H3808 shed H8210 in H7130 thy land, H776 which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 giveth H5414 thee for an inheritance, H5159 and so blood H1818 be H1961 upon H5921 thee.
11 But if H3588 any man H376 hate H1961 H8130 his neighbor, H7453 and lie in wait H693 for him , and rise up H6965 against H5921 him , and smite H5221 him mortally H5315 that he die, H4191 and fleeth H5127 into H413 one H259 of these H411 cities: H5892
12 Then the elders H2205 of his city H5892 shall send H7971 and fetch H3947 him thence H4480 H8033 , and deliver H5414 him into the hand H3027 of the avenger H1350 of blood, H1818 that he may die. H4191
13 Thine eye H5869 shall not H3808 pity H2347 H5921 him , but thou shalt put away H1197 the guilt of innocent H5355 blood H1818 from Israel H4480 H3478 , that it may go well H2895 with thee.
14 Thou shalt not H3808 remove H5253 thy neighbor's H7453 landmark, H1366 which H834 they of old time H7223 have set H1379 in thine inheritance, H5159 which H834 thou shalt inherit H5157 in the land H776 that H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 giveth H5414 thee to possess H3423 it.
15 One H259 witness H5707 shall not H3808 rise up H6965 against a man H376 for any H3605 iniquity, H5771 or for any H3605 sin, H2403 in any H3605 sin H2399 that H834 he sinneth: H2398 at H5921 the mouth H6310 of two H8147 witnesses, H5707 or H176 at H5921 the mouth H6310 of three H7969 witnesses, H5707 shall the matter H1697 be established. H6965
16 If H3588 a false H2555 witness H5707 rise up H6965 against any man H376 to testify H6030 against him that which is wrong; H5627
17 Then both H8147 the men, H376 between whom H834 the controversy H7379 is , shall stand H5975 before H6440 the LORD, H3068 before H6440 the priests H3548 and the judges, H8199 which H834 shall be H1961 in those H1992 days; H3117
18 And the judges H8199 shall make diligent inquisition H1875 H3190 : and, behold, H2009 if the witness H5707 be a false H8267 witness, H5707 and hath testified H6030 falsely H8267 against his brother; H251
19 Then shall ye do H6213 unto him, as H834 he had thought H2161 to have done H6213 unto his brother: H251 so shalt thou put the evil away H1197 H7451 from among H4480 H7130 you.
20 And those which remain H7604 shall hear, H8085 and fear, H3372 and shall henceforth H3254 commit H6213 no H3808 more H5750 any H1697 such H2088 evil H7451 among H7130 you.
21 And thine eye H5869 shall not H3808 pity; H2347 but life H5315 shall go for life, H5315 eye H5869 for eye, H5869 tooth H8127 for tooth, H8127 hand H3027 for hand, H3027 foot H7272 for foot. H7272
