3 Mosebog 25

1 Og Herren talede til Mose paa Sinai Bjerg og sagde:

And YHWH speaks to Moses, in Mount Sinai, saying,

2 Tal til Israels Børn, og du skal sige til dem: Naar I komme til det Land, som jeg vil give eder, da skal Jorden hvile, det skal være en Sabbat for Herren.

“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: When you come into the land which I am giving to you, then the land has kept a Sabbath to YHWH.

3 Seks Aar skal du besaa din Mark, og seks Aar skal du skære din Vingaard, og du skal samle dens Grøde.

[For] six years you sow your field, and [for] six years you prune your vineyard, and have gathered its increase,

4 Men i det syvende Aar skal være en Sabbats Hvile for Landet, det er en Sabbat for Herren; du skal ikke besaa din Mark og ej skære din Vingaard.

and in the seventh year is a Sabbath of rest for the land, a Sabbath to YHWH; you do not sow your field, and you do not prune your vineyard;

5 Hvad der vokser af din Høst af sig selv, skal du ikke høste, og ikke afplukke de Vindruer, som vokse uden dit Arbejde; det skal være et Hvileaar for Landet.

you do not reap the spontaneous growth of your harvest, and you do not gather the grapes of your separated thing; it is a year of rest for the land.

6 Og hvad Landets Hvileaar frembringer, skal være for eder til Spise, for dig og for din Tjener og for din Tjenestepige og for din Daglønner og for den, som bor hos dig, de fremmede hos dig,

And the Sabbath [increase] of the land has been for you for food, to you, and to your manservant, and to your handmaid, and to your hired worker, and to your settler, who are sojourning with you;

7 og for dit Kvæg og for de vilde Dyr, som ere i dit Land, skal al dets Grøde være til at æde.

and for your livestock, and for the beast which [is] in your land, is all its increase for [them] to eat.

8 Og du skal tælle dig syv Hvileaar, syv Aar syv Gange; og de syv Hvileaars Dage skulle være dig ni og fyrretyve Aar.

And you have numbered seven Sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years, and the days of the seven Sabbaths of years have been forty-nine years for you,

9 Og du skal lade en Basunklang lyde igennem Landet i den syvende Maaned paa den tiende Dag i Maaneden, paa Forligelsens Dag skulle I lade Basunen lyde igennem hele eders Land.

and you have caused a horn of shouting to pass over in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month; in the Day of Atonements you cause a horn to pass over through all your land;

10 Og I skulle holde det halvtredsindstyvende Aar helligt; og I skulle udraabe Frihed i Landet for alle dem, som bo deri; det skal være eder et Jubelaar, og I skulle komme tilbage, hver til sin Ejendom, og komme tilbage, hver til sin Slægt.

and you have hallowed the year, the fiftieth year; and you have proclaimed liberty in the land to all its inhabitants; it is a Jubilee for you; and you have turned back each to his possession; indeed, you return each to his family.

11 Det halvtredsindstyvende Aar skal være eder et Jubelaar; I skulle ikke saa og ej høste det, som vokser af sig selv deri, og ikke afplukke det, som vokser uden Arbejde deri.

It [is] a Jubilee, the fiftieth year, it is a year for you; you do not sow, nor reap its spontaneous growth, nor gather its separated things;

12 Thi det er et Jubelaar, det skal være eder en Hellighed; I skulle æde, hvad Marken bærer af sig selv.

for it [is] a Jubilee—it is holy to you; you eat its increase from the field;

13 I dette Jubelaar skulle I komme tilbage, hver til sin Ejendom.

you return each to his possession in this Year of the Jubilee.

14 Og naar du sælger din Næste noget eller køber af din Næstes Haand, skulle I ikke forfordele den ene den anden.

And when you sell anything to your fellow, or buy from the hand of your fellow, you do not oppress one another;

15 Efter Aarenes Tal, som ere efter Jubelaaret, skal du købe af din Næste; efter Antallet, af de Aar, i hvilke der er Afgrøde, skal han sælge dig.

you buy from your fellow by the number of years after the Jubilee; he sells to you by the number of the years of increase;

16 Efter som Aarene ere mange til, skal du lade Købesummen derpaa formeres, og efter som Aarene ere faa til, skal du lade Købesummen derpaa formindskes; thi han sælger dig Afgrødernes Tal.

you multiply its price according to the multitude of the years, and you diminish its price according to the fewness of the years; for [it is] a number of increases [that] he is selling to you;

17 Og I skulle ikke forfordele nogen sin Næste; men du skal frygte din Gud; thi jeg Herren er eders Gud.

and you do not oppress one another, and you have been afraid of your God; for I [am] your God YHWH.

18 Og I skulle gøre mine Skikke og holde mine Bud og gøre dem; saa skulle I bo tryggelig i Landet.

And you have done My statutes, and you keep My judgments, and have done them, and you have dwelt on the land confidently,

19 Og Landet skal give sin Frugt, at I skulle æde, til I mættes; og I skulle bo tryggelig deri.

and the land has given its fruit, and you have eaten to satiety, and have dwelt confidently on it.

20 Og naar I ville sige: Hvad skulle vi æde i det syvende Aar? se, vi skulle ikke saa og ej indsamle vor Grøde:

And when you say, What do we eat in the seventh year, behold, do we not sow, nor gather our increase?

21 Da vil jeg i give min Velsignelse Befaling over eder i det sjette Aar, og det skal bære Grøde for de tre Aar.

Then I have commanded My blessing on you in the sixth year, and it has made the increase for three years;

22 Og I skulle saa i det ottende Aar og æde af den gamle Afgrøde; indtil det niende Aar, indtil Afgrøden kommer deraf, skulle I æde det gamle.

and you have sown [in] the eighth year, and have eaten of the old increase; you eat the old until the ninth year, until the coming in of its increase.

23 Og Landet skal ikke sælges med fuld Afhændelse, thi Landet hører mig til; thi I ere fremmede og Gæster hos mig.

And the land is not sold—to extinction, for the land [is] Mine, for you [are] sojourners and settlers with Me;

24 Og i al eders Ejendoms Land skulle I tilstede Løsning for Jorden.

and in all the land of your possession you give a redemption for the land.

25 Naar din Broder bliver forarmet, at han sælger af sin Ejendom, saa skal hans Løser, som er ham næst paarørende, komme og løse det, hans Broder har solgt.

When your brother becomes poor, and has sold his possession, then his redeemer who is near to him has come, and he has redeemed the sold thing of his brother;

26 Og naar nogen ikke har en Løser, og hans Haand formaar og finder saa meget, som er nok til at løse det for,

and when a man has no redeemer, and his own hand has attained [means], and he has found [it] as sufficient [for] its redemption,

27 da skal han beregne de Aar, siden han solgte det, og tilbagebetale det, som staar tilbage, til Manden, hvem han solgte det; saa skal han komme til sin Ejendom igen.

then he has reckoned the years of its sale, and has given back that which is over to the man to whom he sold [it], and he has returned to his possession.

28 Men dersom hans Haand ikke finder saa meget, som er nok til at tilbagebetale ham, da skal det, han har solgt, være i dens Vold, som købte det, indtil Jubelaaret; og i Jubelaaret skal det gives frit, og han skal komme til sin Ejendom igen.

And if his hand has not found sufficiency to give back to him, then his sold thing has been in the hand of him who buys it until the Year of Jubilee; and it has gone out in the Jubilee, and he has returned to his possession.

29 Og naar nogen sælger et beboet Hus i en Stad, der har Mur, han har Ret til dets Løsning, indtil et helt Aar er forløbet, efter at han har solgt det; et Aar skal Løsningen deraf kunne ske.

And when a man sells a dwelling-house [in] a walled city, then his right of redemption has been until the completion of a year from its selling; his right of redemption is [during these] days;

30 Men dersom det ikke bliver løst, førend det hele Aar er forløbet for ham, da skal Huset, som er i en Stad, der har Mur, overdrages med en fuld Afhændelse til ham, som købte det, for hans Efterkommere; det skal ikke gives frit i Jubelaaret.

and if it is not redeemed to him until the fullness of a perfect year, then the house which [is] in a walled city has been established to extinction to him buying it, throughout his generations; it does not go out in the Jubilee.

31 Men Husene i Landsbyerne, som ikke have Mur omkring, de skulle regnes ligesom en Ager paa Landet; der skal være Løsning for dem, og de skulle gives fri i Jubelaaret.

And a house of the villages which have no surrounding wall is reckoned on the field of the country; there is redemption for it, and it goes out in the Jubilee.

32 Og hvad angaar Leviternes Stæder, Husene i deres Ejendoms Stæder, da maa der altid ske Løsning af Leviterne.

As for cities of the Levites—houses of the cities of their possession—continuous redemption is for the Levites;

33 Og naar nogen af Leviterne løser noget, da skal det gives frit, hvad enten det er et solgt Hus eller hans Ejendoms Stad, i Jubelaaret; thi Husene i Leviternes Stæder ere deres Ejendom midt iblandt Israels Børn.

as for him who redeems from the Levites, then the sale of a house (and [in] the city of his possession) has gone out in the Jubilee, for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession in the midst of the sons of Israel.

34 Men Markens Jord, som hører til deres Stæder, skal ikke Sælges; thi den er dem en evig Ejendom.

And a field, a outskirt of their cities, is not sold; for it [is] a continuous possession for them.

35 Og naar din Broder forarmes, og hans Formue tager af hos dig, da skal du styrke ham, var han endog en fremmed og en Gæst, at han kan leve hos dig.

And when your brother has become poor, and his hand has failed with you, then you have kept hold on him, sojourner and settler, and he has lived with you;

36 Du skal ikke tage Aager eller Overgift af ham, men du skal frygte din Gud, at din Broder kan leve hos dig.

you take no usury or increase from him; and you have been afraid of your God; and your brother has lived with you;

37 Du skal ikke fly ham dine Penge paa Aager, og du skal ikke fly ham din Mad paa Overgift.

you do not give your money to him in usury, and you do not give your food for increase.

38 Jeg er Herren eders Gud, jeg som udførte eder af Ægyptens Land for at give eder Kanaans Land, for at være eders Gud.

I [am] your God YHWH, who has brought you out of the land of Egypt to give the land of Canaan to you, to become your God.

39 Og naar din Broder forarmes hos dig, og han sælges til dig, da skal du ikke lade ham tjene hos dig paa den Maade, som en Træl tjener.

And when your brother becomes poor with you, and he has been sold to you, you do not lay servile service on him;

40 Han skal være hos dig som en Daglønner, som en Gæst, han skal tjene hos dig indtil Jubelaaret.

he is as a hired worker [and] as a settler with you; he serves with you until the Year of the Jubilee—

41 Da skal han udgaa fra dig, han og hans Børn med ham, og han skal vende tilbage til sin Slægt, og vende tilbage til sine Fædres Ejendom.

then he has gone out from you, he and his sons with him, and has turned back to his family; and he turns back to the possession of his fathers.

42 Thi de ere mine Tjenere, som jeg udførte af Ægyptens Land; de skulle ikke sælges, som en Træl sælges.

For they [are] My servants, whom I have brought out from the land of Egypt: they are not sold [with] the sale of a servant;

43 Du skal ikke strengelig regere over ham, men frygte din Gud.

you do not rule over him with rigor, and you have been afraid of your God.

44 Og hvad angaar din Træl eller din Trælkvinde, saa skulle I af Hedningerne, som ere rundt omkring eder, købe Træl og Trælkvinde.

And your manservant and your handmaid whom you have [are] from the nations who [are] around you; you buy manservant and handmaid from them,

45 Ogsaa af deres Børn, som ere Gæster og fremmede iblandt eder, af dem skulle I købe, og af deres Slægt, som er hos eder, og som de have avlet i eders Land; og de skulle være eder til Ejendom.

and also from the sons of the settlers who are sojourning with you, you buy from them, and from their families who [are] with you, which they have begotten in your land, and they have been to you for a possession;

46 Og dem skulle I arvelig beholde for eders Børn efter eder, at de kunne eje dem til en Ejendom, de skulle tjene eder evindelig; men over eders Brødre af Israels Børn skal den ene ikke strengelig regere over den anden.

and you have taken them for an inheritance for your sons after you, to inherit [for] a possession; you lay service on them for all time, but on your brothers, the sons of Israel, each with his brother—you do not rule over him with rigor.

47 Og naar en fremmeds eller Gæsts Haand hos dig formaar meget, og din Broder forarmes hos ham, saa at han sælger sig til den fremmede, som er Gæst hos dig, eller til en af en fremmed Slægt,

And when the hand of a sojourner or settler with you attains [riches], and your brother with him has become poor, and he has been sold to a sojourner, a settler with you, or to the root of the family of a sojourner,

48 da skal der, efter at han er solgt, være Ret for ham til Løsning; en af hans Brødre maa løse ham.

after he has been sold, there is a right of redemption for him; one of his brothers redeems him,

49 Enten hans Farbroder eller hans Farbroders Søn maa løse ham, eller nogen af hans næste Slægt, af hans Slægtskab, maa løse ham; eller formaar hans Haand saa meget, da maa han løse sig selv.

or his uncle or a son of his uncle redeems him, or any of the relations of his flesh, of his family, redeems him, or [if] his own hand has attained [means] then he has been redeemed.

50 Og han skal regne med den, som købte ham, fra det Aar, i hvilket han solgtes til ham, indtil Jubelaaret; og Pengene, som han solgtes for, skulle bestemmes efter Aarenes Tal, som en Daglønners Dage skal Tiden, han var hos ham, agtes.

And he has reckoned with his buyer from the year of his being sold to him until the Year of Jubilee, and the money of his sale has been by the number of years; it is with him as the days of a hired worker.

51 Om der endnu er mange Aar tilbage, da skal han i Forhold til disse betale tilbage for sin Løsning af Pengene, han blev købt for.

If many years still [remain], he gives back his redemption [money] according to them, from the money of his purchase.

52 Men om der er faa Aar tilbage, indtil Jubelaaret, da skal han regne med ham, i Forhold til sine Aar skal han betale tilbage for sin Løsning.

And if few are left of the years until the Year of Jubilee, then he has reckoned with him [and] he gives back his redemption [money] according to his years;

53 Ligesom en Daglønner Aar for Aar skal han være hos ham; han skal ikke strengelig regere over ham for dine Øjne.

as a hired worker, year by year, he is with him, and he does not rule him with rigor before your eyes.

54 Men dersom han ikke kan løses paa disse Maader, da skal han gives fri i Jubelaaret, han og hans Børn med ham.

And if he is not redeemed in these [years], then he has gone out in the Year of Jubilee, he and his sons with him.

55 Thi Israels Børn ere mine Tjenere, ja de ere mine Tjenere, som jeg udførte af Ægyptens Land; jeg er Herren eders Gud.

For the sons of Israel [are] servants to Me; they [are] My servants whom I have brought out of the land of Egypt; I [am] your God YHWH.”
