告以色列人云、當遵我藉摩西所命爾者、簡立逃城、

“ Tell the Israelites to designate the cities of refuge, as I instructed you through Moses,

“ Tell the Israelites to choose the cities to go to for safety, just as I directed you through Moses.

“ Say to the people of Israel,‘ Appoint the cities of refuge, of which I spoke to you through Moses,

“ Now tell the Israelites to designate the cities of refuge, as I instructed Moses.

“ Tell the Israelites: Select your cities of refuge, as I instructed you through Moses,

“ Speak to the sons of Israel, saying,‘ Designate the cities of refuge, of which I spoke to you through Moses,

“ Speak to the children of Israel, saying:‘ Appoint for yourselves cities of refuge, of which I spoke to you through Moses,

Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Assign you the cities of refuge, whereof I spake unto you by Moses,

“ Tell the Israelites: Select your cities of refuge, as I instructed you through Moses,

Speak to the children of Israel, saying, Appoint out for you cities of refuge, whereof I spake unto you by the hand of Moses:

“ Have the Israelites select the cities of refuge that I told you about through Moses.

“ Speak to the children of Israel, saying,‘ Assign the cities of refuge, of which I spoke to you by Moses,

當時摩西在約但東、區別三邑、使素與人無仇而誤殺之者、可逃於彼、逃入其邑、即可保全生命、一為比悉、在平原之野、屬流便支派、一為基列之拉末、屬迦得支派、一為巴珊之歌蘭、屬瑪拿西支派、○

所給利未人之諸邑、其中必有六邑、為逃避之邑、爾所當備者、使誤殺人者可逃於彼、此外更給之四十二邑、

必擇數邑、定為逃避之邑、使誤殺人者可逃於彼、誤殺人者逃於斯邑、可避復仇者、不至死亡、待立於會眾前見鞫、爾所備逃避之邑、當有六、在約但東備三、在迦南地備三、俱為逃避之邑、凡以色列人與寄居其中之外邦客旅、若誤殺人、可逃避於此六邑、若以鐵器擊人致死、是為故殺人者、必治之死、若以能害人之石、擊人致死、是為故殺人者、必治之死、若以能害人之木器、擊人致死、是為故殺人者、必治之死、復仇者、必殺殺人之人、遇即殺之、若恨人而推之下、或特意以物擲其身致死、或因仇以手擊人致死、俱為故殺人者、必治之死、復仇者遇即殺之、若無仇偶然推人下、或無心擲物於人身、或在不見之時、以能斃人之石、擲於人身致死、彼原與之無仇、亦非欲害之、則會眾必於殺人者與復仇者間、循例而審鞫、

則當在爾地中、主爾之天主所賜爾為業者、區別三邑、以主爾天主所賜爾之地、分而為三、亦必修道、使殺人者可遁於彼、殺人者遁於彼、保全生命、有其定例、素與人無仇怨、誤中殺人、即如與友入林伐木、手舉斧斫木、鐵偶離柯、飛中於友擊之死、其人必遁於斯邑、保全其生、恐報仇者心內如焚追殺人者、如道遙遠、必及而殺之、然彼不當死、蓋與被殺者本無仇怨、故我諭爾曰、必區別三邑、如爾謹守遵行我今日所諭爾一切誡命、愛主爾之天主、恆行其道、蒙主爾之天主、循其所誓爾祖之言、廣闊爾境、以所許爾祖之全地賜爾、則必於此三邑之外、更設三邑、

誰能訟天主所選者乎、天主稱之為義、誰能罪之乎、基督已死、且已復活、今在天主右、恆為我儕祈禱、

是故凡屬基督耶穌、不從肉體而從聖神者、有原文抄本無不從肉體而從聖神句不定罪、

我儕避難堅心希望所許之福、既有此永不可易之二事、天主於此事、不能誑言、我儕即大有勉勵、我儕有此望、猶心之錨、堅定不移、入於幔內、

若非有心殺人、乃天主偶付於其手、我必設一處、使可逃避、人若因仇用奸計殺人、雖逃至我祭臺、亦當執之而殺、○
