Tim Jo-Lawi 25
1 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa ewi Got Sinai niya,
And Yahweh spake unto Moses in Mount Sinai, saying—
2 Wuo gi jo-Israel kendo inyisgi ni: Ka gichopo e piny mabiro miyogi, to pinyno nyaka rit Sabato mar Jehova Nyasaye.
Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say unto them: —When ye enter into the land which, I, am giving you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto Yahweh.
3 Kuom higni auchiel oyienu pidho cham e puotheu, gi loso tiend yiendeu mag mzabibu kendo oyienu kayo chambu kendo pono olembeu.
Six years, shalt thou sow thy field, and, six years, shalt thou prune thy vineyard, —and gather the increase thereof;
4 To kochopo higa mar abiriyo to puodho nyaka yud yweyo mar Sabato, ma en Sabato mar Jehova Nyasaye. E higano lowo nyaka yud yweyo ma kik upidh gimoro amora e puotheu mag cham gi mag mzabibu.
but, in the seventh year—a sabbath of sacred rest, shall there be unto the land, a sabbath unto Yahweh: thy field, shalt thou not sow, and, thy vineyard, shalt thou not prune;
5 E higano kik uka orowe kata kik upon mzabibu monyak kendgi e yien mane ok uloso, nikech en higa ma piny yweyoe.
that which groweth of itself of thy harvest, shalt thou not reap; and the grapes of thine unpruned vines, shalt thou not cut off: a year of sacred rest, shall there be to the land.
6 To gimoro amora ma piny nochiegnu e hik Sabato nobed mar chiembu, chiemb jotichu machwo gi mamon kaachiel gi jotichu mamoko, kod welo molimou kuma udakie kuom ndalo machwok,
So shall the sabbath of the land be unto you for food: unto thee, and unto thy servant and unto thy handmaid, —and unto thy hireling, and unto thy settlers that are sojourning with thee;
7 kendo nobed mar jambu gi le manie pinyu. Gimoro amora ma piny ochiego inyalo cham.
and unto thy tame-beasts, and unto the wild-beasts that are in thy land, shall belong all the increase thereof for food.
8 Waluru Sabato abiriyo mag higni abiriyo nyadibiriyo, tiendeni higni piero angʼwen gochiko.
And thou shalt count to thee seven weeks of years, seven years, seven times, —so shall the days of the seven weeks of years become to thee forty-nine years.
9 Eka gouru turumbete kamoro amora e odiechiengʼ mar apar mar dwe mar abiriyo, kendo Odiechieng Pwodhruokno gouru turumbete e gwengeu duto.
Then shalt thou cause a signal-horn to pass through in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month: on the Day of Propitiation, shall ye cause a horn to pass throughout all your land.
10 Waluru higa mar piero abich, kendo ugo milome e piny duto ni en higa ma joma otwe igonyo iweyogi gibedo thuolo. Enobed hiku mar mor; ngʼato ka ngʼato nodog thurgi ir joode kendo ir anywolane.
So shall ye hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim freedom throughout the land to all the dwellers thereof, —a jubilee, shall it be unto you, and ye shall return, every man unto his possession, and every man unto his family, shall ye return.
11 Higa mar piero abichno nobednu uduto hik mor, kik upidhe cham, kendo kik ukaye orowe, kata kik uponie mzabibu monyak kende e yien mane ok uloso.
A jubilee, shall that fiftieth year be unto you, —ye shall not sow, neither shall ye reap the self-grown corn thereof, nor cut off the grapes of the unpruned vines thereof.
12 Nimar en higa mar piero abich, kendo mosewalnu maler ni Jehova Nyasaye, nyaka ucham gik monyak e puothe.
For, a jubilee, it is, holy, shall it be unto you, —out of the field, shall ye eat her increase.
13 E higani mar piero abich nyaka ngʼato ka ngʼato odog thurgi.
In this same jubilee year, shall ye return every man unto his possession.
14 E higani ka ngʼato ongʼiewo lop wadgi to kik wuond moro bedie kindgi.
And when ye sell anything to thy neighbour, or buy aught at thy neighbour’s hand, do not overreach one another.
15 Ka ingʼiewo lop wadu nyaka ikwan higni kochakore e higa mar piero abich mokadho. Nyaka oket nengo lopno mana maromre gi higni ma pod ibiro keyoe.
By the number of years after the jubilee, shalt thou buy of thy neighbour, —by the number of the years of increase, shall he sell unto thee;
16 Ka hignigo ngʼeny to nyaka imed nengo, to ka higni nok, to nyaka idwok nengo piny, nikech gima ingʼiewo kuome en mana cham mibiro kayo.
according to the multitude of the years, shalt thou increase the price thereof, and, according to the fewness of the years, shalt thou diminish the price thereof, —because the sum of the increase, it is that he selleth thee.
17 Kik ngʼat maa nyawadgi, to luoruru Nyasachu. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
So then ye shall not overreach one another; but thou shalt stand in awe of thy God, —for, I—Yahweh, am your God.
18 Rituru buchena kendo une ni uluwo chikena, eka mondo udag gi kwe e pinyno.
Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and my regulations, shall ye observe and do them, —so shall ye dwell upon the land with confidence;
19 Mano eka lowo nochiegnu cham kendo nuchiem ma uyiengʼ mi unudagi gi kwe.
and the land shall yield her fruit; and ye shall eat to the full, —and shall dwell with confidence thereupon.
20 Kapo upenjo niya, “Angʼo ma wabiro chamo e higa mar abiriyo ka ok wachwoyo, kata ka ok wakeyo?”
And since ye may say, What shall we eat in the seventh year? Lo! we are not to sow, neither are we to gather our increase!
21 To anadwoku kama: Anaolnu gweth mogundho e higa mar auchiel, kendo puotheu nochieg cham moromou chamo nyaka bangʼ higni adek.
Therefore will I command my blessing upon you, in the sixth year, —and it shall make the increase of three years;
22 E kinde ma uchwoyo e higa mar aboro to unubed mana kapod uchamo cham machon nyaka chop ubed gi keyo e higa mar ochiko.
and ye shall sow, the eighth year, and eat of old store, —until the ninth year until the coming in of the increase thereof, shall ye eat old store.
23 Kik ngʼato usne wadgi lowo chuth, nikech lowo en mara, un to un mana joma amiyo lowo kaka wenda kendo jodak.
The land moreover shall not be sold beyond recovery, for, mine, is the land, —for, sojourners and settlers, ye are with me.
24 E pinyu kamoro amora mudakie, nyaka uyie mondo puodho mane oseusi mondo owar.
And, in all the land of your possession, a right of redemption, shall ye give to the land.
25 Ka wadu moro dhier omako ma ouso lope, to nyaka wadgi moro tem matek kendo owarne lopeno.
When thy brother waxeth poor, and so selleth aught of his possession, then may his kinsman that is near unto him come in, and redeem that which was sold by his brother.
26 To ka ngʼato onge gi watne manyalo warone lowo, to kata en owuon ndalo moyudo pesa onyalo ware,
And, when, any man, hath no kinsman, —but his own hand getteth enough, so that he findeth what is needed to redeem it,
27 kendo enokwan chakre higni mane ouse lopeno, kendo chulo ngʼatno pesa moromo gi higni ma pod odongʼ nyaka chop higa mar mor, eka koro oyiene kawo lopno obed mare kendo.
then shall he reckon the years since he sold it, and restore the overplus to the man to whom he sold it, —and shall return to his possession.
28 To ka ok onyal waro lopeno, to lopno nosik e lwet ngʼat mane ongʼiewocha nyaka chop higa mar piero abich. To kochopo higa mar morno to nowe lowo odogni wuon mare machon, kendo wuon-gi nokawe.
But, if his hand have not found enough to get it back unto him, then shall that which he sold remain in the hand of him that bought it, until the year of the jubilee, —and shall go out in the jubilee, and he shall return unto his possession.
29 Ka ngʼato oyie mi wadgi ongʼiewo ode mar dak manie dala mochiel motegno gi ohinga, to oyiene mana mar ware ka higa achiel pok orumo nyaka ne ngʼiewe. Higano mangima en gi thuolo mar ware.
And, when, any man, selleth a dwelling-house in a walled city, then shall his right of redemption remain until the completion of a year after he sold it, —for, [a year of] days, shall his right of redemption remain.
30 Ka ok oware ka higa pok orumo, to odno mantiere ei ohinga mochiel motegnono mar dala maduongʼ nosik mana kobedo mar ngʼat mane ongʼiewecha, kaachiel gi nyikwaye kod kothe duto nyaka chiengʼ. Kata kochopo higa mar piero abich to ok nodwoke e lwet wuon machon.
But, if it be not redeemed before the end of a full year, then shall the house that is in the city that hath walls be confirmed, beyond recovery, to him who bought it, unto his generations, —it shall not go out in the jubilee.
31 To udi moger e mier ma ok ochiel gi ohinga nokwan mana kaka ikwano lowo. Ginto gin gik minyalo waro, maka ochopo higa mar piero abich to nyaka dwokgi e lwet wegi.
But as for the houses of villages which have no wall round about them, with the fields of land, shall it be reckoned, —a right of redemption, shall belong to it, and, in the jubilee, shall it go out.
32 Jo-Lawi nigi thuolo kinde duto mar waro utegi manie miechgi.
And as for the cities of the Levites, the houses of the cities of their possession, an age-abiding right of redemption, shall pertain unto the Levites.
33 Ka ja-Lawi moro ok owaro ode manie dalagi, to odni nyaka duogne e higa mar piero abich, nikech udi manie miech joka Lawi e mwandu kende ma gin godo e piny Israel.
And, if one of the Levites should not redeem, then shall the sale of the house and the city of his possession go 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 To puothe mag lek mag joka Lawi ok nyal usi, nikech mano en mwandugi nyaka chiengʼ.
But the field of the pasture-land of their cities, shall not be sold, —for an age-abiding possession, it is unto them.
35 Ka ja-Israel wadu moro obedo modhier e dieru, to nyaka ukonye mana kaka ukonyo jadak kata wendo molimou kuma udakie kuom ndalo machwok mondo omi osik kodak kodu.
And, when thy brother waxeth poor, and his hand becometh feeble with thee, then shalt thou strengthen him, as a sojourner and a settler, so shall he live with thee.
36 Kik ukaw ohala moro amora kuome, to daguru kode kuluoro Nyasachu.
Do not accept from him interest or profit, but stand thou in awe of thy God, —so shall thy brother live with thee.
37 Kik uhole pesa mondo uyudie ohala, kendo kik ukaw ohala kuom chiemo ma uhole.
Thy silver, shalt thou not give him on interest, —neither, for profit, shalt thou give him thy food.
38 An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, mane ogolou e piny Misri momiyou piny Kanaan kendo mondo abed Nyasachu.
I—Yahweh, am your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, —to give unto you the land of Canaan, to become your God,
39 Ka wadu odhier kendo ochiwore mondo ingʼiewe, to kik ikete otini ka misumba.
And when thy brother waxeth poor with thee, and so selleth himself unto thee, thou shalt not bind him with the bondage of a bondman:
40 To dag kode kaka jatich michulo kata kaka wendo modak kodi, kendo obiro tiyoni nyaka chop higa mar piero abich.
as a hired servant, as a settler, shall he remain with thee, —until the year of the jubilee, shall he serve with thee:
41 Eka bangʼe noa iri en kaachiel gi nyithinde, kendo odogi ir joodgi owuon kendo e lop kwerene.
then shall he go forth from thee, he and his sons with him, —and shall return unto his family, and unto the possession of his fathers, shall he return.
42 Nikech jo-Israel gin wasumbiniga mane agolo an awuon e piny Misri, ok onego ngʼiewgi kaka wasumbini.
For, my bondmen, they are, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt, —they shall not sell themselves with the sale of a bondman.
43 Kik isand ja-Israel wadu kata matin, to iluor Nyasachi.
Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour, —so shalt thou stand in awe of thy God.
44 Wasumbini magu machwo kata mamon, unyalo mana ngʼiewo koa ir ogendini mukiewogo.
And as for thy bondman and thy bond-maid which thou shalt have, of the nations that are round about you—from them, may ye buy bondman and bond-maid.
45 To bende un gi thuolo mar ngʼiewo nyithind jodak manie dieru, kaachiel gi joma ginywolo e dieru, makoro ginibed mwandu magu uwegi,
Moreover also, of the sons of the settlers who are sojourning with you—of them, may ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they have begotten in your land, —so shall they become yours, as a possession;
46 Bangʼ ka usetho to unuwegi ni yawuotu kaka girkeni kendo ginibed wasumbini mag-gi nyaka chiengʼ, makmana ni jo-Israel weteu to kik usandi.
and ye may take them as an inheritance for your sons after you to inherit as a possession, unto times age-abiding, of them, may ye take to be bondmen, —but, over your brethren the sons of Israel—a man over his brother, ye shall not rule, over him with rigour.
47 Ka jadak moro manie dieru kata wendo oyudo mwandu mi obedo jamoko, to wadu moro to obedo modhier, mi ongʼiewe gi jadak modak e dieru kata anywola jadakno,
And, when the hand of the sojourner and settler with thee getteth possessions, and thy brother with him, waxeth poor, —and so he selleth himself to the sojourner [who is] a settler with thee, or to one who hath taken root, of the family of the sojourner,
48 to en giratiro mondo oware bangʼ ka osengʼiewe. Achiel kuom wedene nyalo ware.
after that he hath sold himself, a right of redemption, pertaineth to him, —one of his brethren, may redeem him;
49 Ngʼatni nyalo bedo owad gi wuon, kata wuod wuon kata mana watne moro amora e anywolane. To en bende kobedo ja-mwandu to onyalo warore owuon.
or, his uncle or his uncle’s son, may redeem him, or, a near flesh-relation of his, of his family, may redeem him, or, his own hand may have gotten enough, and, so he may redeem himself.
50 En kaachiel gi ngʼat mane ongʼieweno nyaka kwan kar romb higni chakre chiengʼ mane ongʼiewe nyaka chop higa mar piero abich. Pesa monego dwokne ngʼat mane ongʼieweno nyaka bed maromre gi pok ma dine ngʼatno ondikogo jatich kuom higni ma ngʼatno osetiyogo.
Then shall he reckon with him that bought him, from the year that he was sold to him, unto the year of the jubilee, —and the silver for which he was sold shall be by the number of years, according to the days of a hired servant, shall he be with him.
51 To ka higni modongʼ ngʼeny, to noware gi chudo mamalo.
If there is yet a multitude of years, according to them, shall he return, as his redemption price, of the silver of him that bought him.
52 To kodongʼ gi higni manok mondo ochop e higa mar piero abich, to noware gi chudo ma piny.
Or, if [there is] but a small remainder of years, until the year of the jubilee, then shall he reckon to himself, according to the years thereof, shall he return his price of redemption.
53 Ngʼatni nyaka riti kaka jatich mondiki kendo ngʼat mane ongʼiewe ok oyiene mondo osande.
As a servant hired year by year, shall he be with him, he shall not rule over him with rigour, before thine eyes.
54 Ka ngʼatno ok owar e achiel kuom yorego, to en kaachiel gi nyithinde noweye thuolo e higa mar piero abich,
But if he be not redeemed in any of these ways, then shall he go out in the jubilee year, he, and his sons with him.
55 nikech jo-Israel gin wasumbini maga. Gin wasumbini maga mane agolo e piny Misri. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.
For, unto me, are the sons of Israel, bondmen, my bondmen, they are, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt. I, Yahweh, am your God.
