Josh.20.1

Then GOD spoke to Joshua:

Josh.20.1

Then the LORD said to Joshua:

Josh.20.1

The LORD also spoke to Joshua, saying,

Josh.20.1

The LORD said to Joshua,

Josh.20.2

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

Josh.20.2

"Tell the People of Israel: Designate the asylum-cities, as I instructed you through Moses,

Josh.20.2

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

Josh.20.2

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

Josh.20.2

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

Josh.20.3

That the slayer that killeth any person unawares and unwittingly may flee thither: and they shall be your refuge from the avenger of blood.

Josh.20.3

so that anyone who kills a person accidentally--that is, unintentionally--may flee there as a safe place of asylum from the avenger of blood.

Josh.20.3

so that anyone who kills a person accidentally and unintentionally may flee there and find protection from the avenger of blood.

Josh.20.3

that the slayer who kills a person accidentally or unintentionally may flee there; and they shall be your refuge from the avenger of blood.

Josh.20.3

Anyone who kills another person unintentionally can run to one of these cities and be protected from the relatives of the one who was killed, for the relatives may seek to avenge the killing.

Josh.20.4

And when he that doth flee unto one of those cities shall stand at the entering of the gate of the city, and shall declare his cause in the ears of the elders of that city, they shall take him into the city unto them, and give him a place, that he may dwell among them.

Josh.20.4

"A person shall escape for refuge to one of these cities, stand at the entrance to the city gate, and lay out his case before the city's leaders. The leaders must then take him into the city among them and give him a place to live with them.

Josh.20.4

"When he flees to one of these cities, he is to stand in the entrance of the city gate and state his case before the elders of that city. Then they are to admit him into their city and give him a place to live with them.

Josh.20.4

And when he flees to one of those cities, and stands at the entrance of the gate of the city, and declares his case in the hearing of the elders of that city, they shall take him into the city as one of them, and give him a place, that he may dwell among them.

Josh.20.4

"Upon reaching one of these cities, the one who caused the accidental death will appear before the leaders at the city gate and explain what happened. They must allow the accused to enter the city and live there among them.

Josh.20.5

And if the avenger of blood pursue after him, then they shall not deliver the slayer up into his hand; because he smote his neighbour unwittingly, and hated him not beforetime.

Josh.20.5

"If the avenger of blood chases after him, they must not give him up--he didn't intend to kill the person; there was no history of ill-feeling.

Josh.20.5

If the avenger of blood pursues him, they must not surrender the one accused, because he killed his neighbor unintentionally and without malice aforethought.

Josh.20.5

Then if the avenger of blood pursues him, they shall not deliver the slayer into his hand, because he struck his neighbor unintentionally, but did not hate him beforehand.

Josh.20.5

If the relatives of the victim come to avenge the killing, the leaders must not release the accused to them, for the death was accidental.

Josh.20.6

And he shall dwell in that city, until he stand before the congregation for judgment, and until the death of the high priest that shall be in those days: then shall the slayer return, and come unto his own city, and unto his own house, unto the city from whence he fled.

Josh.20.6

He may stay in that city until he has stood trial before the congregation and until the death of the current high priest. Then he may go back to his own home in his hometown from which he fled."

Josh.20.6

He is to stay in that city until he has stood trial before the assembly and until the death of the high priest who is serving at that time. Then he may go back to his own home in the town from which he fled."

Josh.20.6

And he shall dwell in that city until he stands before the congregation for judgment, and until the death of the one who is high priest in those days. Then the slayer may return and come to his own city and his own house, to the city from which he fled."'

Josh.20.6

But the person who caused the death must stay in that city and be tried by the community and found innocent. Then the one declared innocent because the death was accidental must continue to live in that city until the death of the high priest who was in office at the time of the accident. After that, the one found innocent is free to return home."

Josh.20.7

These were the cities appointed for all the children of Israel, and for the stranger that sojourneth among them, that whosoever killeth any person at unawares might flee thither, and not die by the hand of the avenger of blood, until he stood before the congregation.

Josh.20.9

These were the designated cities for the People of Israel and any resident foreigner living among them, so that anyone who killed someone unintentionally could flee there and not die by the hand of the avenger of blood without a fair trial before the congregation.

John.2.3

When the wine was gone, Jesus' mother said to him, "They have no more wine."

John.2.3

And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, "They have no wine."

John.2.3

The wine supply ran out during the festivities, so Jesus' mother spoke to him about the problem. "They have no more wine," she told him.

John.2.4

Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.

John.2.4

Jesus said, "Is that any of our business, Mother--yours or mine? This isn't my time. Don't push me."

John.2.4

"Dear woman, why do you involve me?" Jesus replied, "My time has not yet come."

John.2.4

Jesus said to her, "Woman, what does your concern have to do with Me? My hour has not yet come."

John.2.4

"How does that concern you and me?" Jesus asked. "My time has not yet come."

John.2.5

His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.

John.2.5

She went ahead anyway, telling the servants, "Whatever he tells you, do it."

John.2.5

His mother said to the servants, "Do whatever he tells you."

And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.

John.2.8

And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.

John.2.8

"Now fill your pitchers and take them to the host," Jesus said, and they did.

John.2.8

Then he told them, "Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet."

John.2.8

And He said to them, "Draw some out now, and take it to the master of the feast." And they took it.

John.2.8

he said, "Dip some out and take it to the master of ceremonies." So they followed his instructions.

John.2.9

When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,

John.2.9

When the host tasted the water that had become wine (he didn't know what had just happened but the servants, of course, knew), he called out to the bridegroom,

John.2.9

They did so, and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside

John.2.9

When the master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom.

John.2.9

When the master of ceremonies tasted the water that was now wine, not knowing where it had come from (though, of course, the servants knew), he called the bridegroom over.

John.2.10

And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.

John.2.10

"Everybody I know begins with their finest wines and after the guests have had their fill brings in the cheap stuff. But you've saved the best till now!"

John.2.10

and said, "Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now."

John.2.10

And he said to him, "Every man at the beginning sets out the good wine, and when the guests have well drunk, then the inferior. You have kept the good wine until now!"

John.2.10

"Usually a host serves the best wine first," he said. "Then, when everyone is full and doesn't care, he brings out the less expensive wines. But you have kept the best until now!"
