< Levitski zakonik 25 >
1 Jahve reče Mojsiju na Sinajskom brdu:
And the Lord spoke to Moses in the mount Sina, saying,
2 “Govori Izraelcima i kaži im: Kad uđete u zemlju koju vam dajem, neka ta zemlja održava Jahvin subotni počinak.
Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, Whenever you shall have entered into the land, which I give to you, then the land shall rest which I give to you, for its sabbaths to the Lord.
3 Šest godina zasijavaj svoju njivu, šest godina svoj vinograd obrezuj i beri njegov plod.
Six years you shall sow your field, and six years you shall prune your vine, and gather in its fruit.
4 Ali sedme godine neka i zemlja uživa subotnji počinak, Jahvinu subotu: svoje njive ne zasijavaj niti obrezuj svoga vinograda.
But in the seventh year [shall be] a sabbath, it shall be a rest to the land, a sabbath to the Lord: you shall not sow your field, and you shall not prune your vine.
5 Što samo od sebe uzraste na tvojoj njivi nemoj žeti niti beri grožđe s neobrezane loze. Neka to bude zemlji godina počivanja.
And you shall not gather the spontaneous produce of your field, and you shall not gather fully the grapes of your dedication: it shall be a year of rest to the land.
6 Zemljišni počinak neka vam priskrbi prehranu: tebi, tvome sluzi, tvojoj sluškinji, tvome najamniku koji s tobom živi;
And the sabbaths of the land shall be food for you, and for your man-servant, and for your maidservant, and your hireling, and the stranger that abides with you.
7 a i tvojoj stoci i zvjeradi u tvojoj zemlji neka njezini plodovi služe za hranu.”
And for your cattle, and for the wild beats that are in your land, shall every fruit of it be for food.
8 “Nabroj sedam sedmica takvih godina, sedam puta sedam godina. Sedam sedmica godina iznosit će ti četrdeset devet godina.
And you shall reckon to yourself seven sabbaths of years, seven times seven years; and they shall be to you seven weeks of years, nine and forty years.
9 A onda zaori u trubu! U sedmome mjesecu, desetoga dana toga mjeseca, na Dan pomirenja, zatrubite u trubu širom svoje zemlje.
In the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall make a proclamation with the sound of a trumpet in all your land; on the day of atonement you shall make a proclamation with a trumpet in all your land.
10 Tu pedesetu godinu proglasite svetom! Zemljom proglasite oslobađanje svim njezinim stanovnicima. To neka vam bude jubilej, oprosna godina. Neka se svatko vaš vrati na svoju očevinu; neka se svatko vrati k svome rodu!
And you shall sanctify the year, the fifties year, and you shall proclaim a release upon the land to all that inhabit it; it shall be given a year of release, a jubilee for you; and each one shall depart to his possession, and you shall go each to his family.
11 Ta pedesetogodišnjica neka vam je jubilejska godina: nemojte sijati, nemojte žeti što samo od sebe uzraste niti berite grožđe s neobrezane loze.
This is a jubilee of release, the year shall be to you the fifties year: you shall not sow, nor reap the produce that comes of itself from the land, neither shall you gather its dedicated fruits.
12 Jer jubilej vam mora biti svet! Hranite se onim što njiva donese od sebe.
For it is a jubilee of release; it shall be holy to you, you shall eat its fruits off the fields.
13 Te jubilejske godine neka se svatko vrati na svoju očevinu.
In the year of the release [even] the jubilee of it, shall [each] one return to his possession.
14 Zato, kad prodajete imanje svome sunarodnjaku ili kupujete od svoga sunarodnjaka, nemojte nanositi štete svome bratu!
And if you should sell a possession to your neighbor, or if you should buy of your neighbor, let not a man oppress his neighbor.
15 Od svoga sunarodnjaka kupuj, odbivši samo broj godina poslije jubileja, a on neka ti proda prema broju proizvodnih godina.
According to the number of years after the jubilee shall you buy of your neighbor, according to the number of years of the fruits shall he sell to you.
16 Što više godina, više i cijenu povisi; što manje godina, neka je i cijena manja. Jer, ono što ti on prodaje jest broj ljetina.
According as [there may be] a greater number of years he shall increase [the value of] his possession, and according as [there may be] a less number of years he shall lessen [the value of] his possession; for according to the number of his crops, so shall he sell to you.
17 Neka nitko od vas ne nanosi štete svome sunarodnjaku, nego se boj Boga svoga! Jer ja sam Jahve, Bog vaš.
Let not a man oppress his neighbor, and you shall fear the Lord your God: I am the Lord your God.
18 Vršite moje zakone i moje naredbe; vjerno ih provodite u djelo pa ćete u sigurnosti živjeti na zemlji.
And you shall keep all my ordinances, and all my judgments; and do you observe them, and you shall keep them, and dwell securely in the land.
19 Zemlja će davati svoj rod, jest ćete do sitosti i živjet ćete u sigurnosti.
And the land shall yield her increase, and you shall eat to fullness, and shall dwell securely in it.
20 Ako biste rekli: 'Čime ćemo se hraniti te sedme godine kad ne budemo ni sijali ni brali plodova?'
And if you should say, What shall we eat in this seventh year, if we do not sow nor gather in our fruits?
21 evo, blagoslov ću svoj pustiti na vas: šesta godina rodom će roditi za tri godine.
Then will I send my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and the land shall produce its fruits for three years.
22 Kad budete sijali osme godine, hranit ćete se starim prihodom sve do devete godine; dok ne dođe njezin prihod, jest ćete stari.”
And you shall sow in the eighth year, and eat old fruits till the ninth year: until its fruit come, you shall eat old fruits of the old.
23 “Zemlja se ne smije prodati potpuno, jer zemlja pripada meni, dok ste vi samo stranci i gosti kod mene.
And the land shall not be sold for a permanence; for the land is mine, because you are strangers and sojourners before me.
24 Zato u svakome kraju gdje imate zemljišne posjede morate dopustiti otkupljivanje zemlje.
And in every land of your possession, you shall allow ransoms for the land.
25 Ako tvoj brat zapadne u škripac te moradne prodati dio svoje očevine, neka dođe njegov najbliži izbavitelj i otkupi što je njegov brat prodao.
And if your brother who is with you be poor, and should have sold [part] of his possession, and his kinsman who is near to him come, then he shall redeem the possession which his brother has sold.
26 Ako nema koga da mu ga otkupi, a poslije i sam postane imućan te stekne sredstva da je otkupi,
And if one have no near kinsman, and he prosper with his hand, and he find sufficient money, [even] his ransom;
27 neka prebroji godine od prodaje, isplati kupcu svotu za preostalo vrijeme i vrati se na svoju očevinu.
then shall he calculate the years of his sale, and he shall give what is due to the man to whom he sold it, and he shall return to his possession.
28 Ako nema sredstava da je vrati, onda prodano neka ostane u rukama kupca do jubilejske godine. A stupivši u jubilej, neka se vrati na svoju očevinu.
But if his hand have not prospered sufficiently, so as that he should restore the money to him, then he that bought the possessions shall have them till the sixth year of the release; and it shall go out in the release, and the owner shall return to his possession.
29 Ako tko proda stojnu kuću u gradu zidom obzidanu, može je otkupiti dokle se ne navrši godina poslije prodaje; otkupni rok neka je, dakle, jedna godina.
And if any one should sell an inhabited house in a walled city, then there shall be the ransom of it, until [the time] is fulfilled: its time of ransom shall be a full year.
30 Ako je ne otkupi u roku od godine, onda kuća u gradu zidom opasana prelazi potpuno kupcu i njegovim potomcima: ni za jubileja neka se ne vraća.
And if it be not ransomed until there be completed of its time a full year, the house which is in the walled city shall be surely confirmed to him that bought it, throughout his generations; and it shall not go out in the release.
31 Ali kuće po selima što nemaju zidova oko sebe neka se smatraju kao posjedi u polju; mogu se otkupljivati. U jubileju kupac mora iz njih izići.
But the houses in the villages which have not a wall round about them, shall be reckoned as the fields of the country: they shall always be redeemable, and they shall go out in the release.
32 Kuće koje u levitskim gradovima pripadaju levitima mogu leviti otkupiti u svako vrijeme.
And the cities of the Levites, the houses of the cities in their possession, shall be always redeemable to the Levites.
33 Ako se koji levit ne posluži svojim pravom otkupa, onda će kuća što bude prodana u gradu njegova vlasništva biti za jubileja vraćena. Jer kod Izraelaca kuće u gradovima levita njihovo su vlasništvo.
And if any one shall redeem a house of the Levites, then shall their sale of the houses of their possession go out in the release; because the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession in the midst of the children of Israel.
34 Neograđena zemlja oko njihovih gradova ne može se prodati, jer je ona njihovo vlasništvo za sva vremena.”
And the lands set apart for their cities shall not be sold, because this is their perpetual possession.
35 “Ako tvoj brat zapadne u škripac i ne mogne održavati svoje odnose s tobom, primi ga; i neka s tobom živi kao stranac ili gost.
And if your brother who is with you become poor, and he fail in resources with you, you shall help him as a stranger and a sojourner, and your brother shall live with you.
36 Ne uzimaj od njega ni lihve ni kamata. Boga se svoga boj, i neka tvoj brat živi s tobom!
You shall not receive from him interest, nor increase: and you shall fear your God: I [am] the Lord: and your brother shall live with you.
37 Ne uzajmljuj mu novac na kamate niti mu lihvarski davaj svoju hranu.
You shall not lend your money to him at interest, and you shall not lend your meat to him to be returned with increase.
38 Ja, Jahve, Bog vaš, izbavio sam vas iz zemlje egipatske da vam dadem zemlju kanaansku i budem vaš Bog.
I [am] the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Chanaan, so as to be your God.
39 Ako li tvoj brat padne u škripac dok je s tobom u urednim odnosima te se moradne tebi prodati, nemoj ga prisiliti da služi kao rob; neka bude kod tebe kao najamnik ili nadničar.
And if your brother by you be lowered, and be sold to you, he shall not serve you with the servitude of a slave.
40 Neka služi kod tebe do jubilejske godine.
He shall be with you as a hireling or a sojourner, he shall work for you till the year of release:
41 Onda neka bude slobodan da ode od tebe - i on i njegova djeca s njim; neka ide natrag svome rodu i opet zaposjedne svoju djedovinu.
and he shall go out in the release, and his children with him; and he shall go to his family, he shall hasten back to his patrimony.
42 TÓa oni su moji službenici, ja sam ih izbavio iz zemlje egipatske; oni se ne smiju prodavati kao robovi.
Because these are my servants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt; such an one shall not be sold as a [common] servant.
43 Nemoj s njim grubo postupati! Boga se svoga boj!
You shall not oppress him with labor, and shall fear the Lord your God.
44 A robove i ropkinje, budeš li ih htio imati, možete kupiti, i muške i ženske, od naroda koji su oko vas.
And whatever number of menservants and maidservants you shall have, you shall purchase male and female servants from the nations that are round about you.
45 Možete ih kupovati i od pridošlica koji s vama borave; od njihovih obitelji što žive s vama i rođeni su u vašoj zemlji. Takvi mogu postati vašim vlasništvom.
And of the sons of the sojourners that are among you, of these you shall buy and of their relations, all that shall be in your lands; let them be to you for a possession.
46 Njih možete predati u nasljedstvo svojoj djeci da ih zavazda naslijede u baštinu. Prema njima možete postupati kao prema robovima. Ali prema svojoj braći, Izraelcima, nitko ne smije grubo postupati.
And you shall distribute them to your children after you, and they shall be to you permanent possessions for ever: but of your brethren the children of Israel, one shall not oppress his brother in labors.
47 Ako se stranac s tobom nastanjen obogati, a tvoj brat, u svojim odnosima prema njemu, zapadne u škripac te se proda strancu koji je s tobom nastanjen ili kojemu god potomku strančeve obitelji,
And if a stranger or sojourner with you wax rich, and your brother in distress be sold to the stranger or the sojourner that is with you, or to a proselyte by extraction;
48 on ima pravo i nakon prodaje biti otkupljen. Neka ga otkupi netko od njegove braće;
after he is sold to him there shall be redemption for him, one of his brethren shall redeem him.
49 ili neka ga otkupi njegov stric, njegov rođak ili bilo tko od njegove obitelji koji bude od njegove krvi. Ili, ako ima sredstava, neka se sam otkupi.
A brother of his father, or a son of his father's brother shall redeem him; or let one of his near kin of his tribe redeem him, and if he should be rich and redeem himself,
50 Sa svojim kupcem neka proračuna vrijeme od godine kad mu se prodao do jubilejske godine. Cijena za njegovo oslobođenje neka bude prema broju godina. Vrijeme što ga je proveo sa svojim vlasnikom neka se procijeni kao vrijeme jednog najamnika.
then shall he calculate with his purchaser from the year that he sold himself to him until the year of release: and the money of his purchase shall be as that of a hireling, he shall be with him from year to year.
51 Ako ostaje još mnogo godina, neka isplati za svoju otkupninu u omjeru svoje prodajne svote.
And if any have a greater number of years [than enough], according to these he shall pay his ransom out of his purchase-money.
52 A ako ostaje samo nekoliko godina do jubilejske godine, neka izračuna pa isplati za svoj otkup prema godinama službe.
And if but a little time be left of the years to the year of release, then shall he reckon to him according to his years, and shall pay his ransom
53 Prema njemu neka bude kao prema najamniku koji se iznajmljuje od godine na godinu. Neka se na tvoje oči s njim ne postupa grubo.
as a hireling; he shall be with him from year to year; you shall not oppress him with labor before you.
54 Ne bude li iskupljen ovako, onda i on i njegova djeca s njim neka odu u jubilejskoj godini.
And if he do not pay his ransom accordingly, he shall go out in the year of his release, he and his children with him.
55 Jer Izraelci su moji službenici; oni su moji službenici koje sam ja izveo iz zemlje egipatske, ja, Jahve, Bog vaš.”
For the children of Israel are my servants: they are my attendants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt.
