< Deuteronomy 15 >
1 At the end of every seven years you must cancel debts.
Septītā gada galā tev būs turēt atlaišanu.
2 This is the manner of remission: Every creditor shall cancel what he has loaned to his neighbor. He is not to collect anything from his neighbor or brother, because the LORD’s time of release has been proclaimed.
Šāda nu ir tā atlaišana, ka ikvienam aizdevējam būs atlaist, ko tas savam tuvākam aizdevis; tam nebūs spiest savu tuvāko nedz savu brāli, jo Tam Kungam atlaišana ir izsaukta.
3 You may collect something from a foreigner, but you must forgive whatever your brother owes you.
No svešinieka atprasi, bet kas tev pie tava brāļa, to lai tava roka atlaiž.
4 There will be no poor among you, however, because the LORD will surely bless you in the land that the LORD your God is giving you to possess as an inheritance,
Lai jel nav nabagu tavā starpā; jo Tas Kungs svētīdams tevi svētīs tai zemē, ko Viņš, Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dos iemantot par īpašumu,
5 if only you obey the LORD your God and are careful to follow all these commandments I am giving you today.
Ja tu tikai Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, balsi klausīsi, turēdams visus šos baušļus, ko es tev šodien pavēlu.
6 When the LORD your God blesses you as He has promised, you will lend to many nations but borrow from none; you will rule over many nations but be ruled by none.
Jo Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tevi svētīs, tā kā Viņš tev runājis; tad tu aizdosi daudz tautām, bet tu neaizņemsies, un tu valdīsi pār daudz tautām, bet viņām pār tevi nebūs valdīt.
7 If there is a poor man among your brothers within any of the gates in the land that the LORD your God is giving you, then you are not to harden your heart or shut your hand from your poor brother.
Kad tavā starpā būs nabags, kāds no taviem brāļiem kādos vārtos tavā zemē, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dos, tad tev nebūs apcietināt savu sirdi, nedz aizslēgt savu roku priekš sava nabaga brāļa;
8 Instead, you are to open your hand to him and freely loan him whatever he needs.
Bet atvērdams atver viņam savu roku un aizdodams aizdod viņam, cik viņam vajag savā trūkumā, kas trūkst.
9 Be careful not to harbor this wicked thought in your heart: “The seventh year, the year of release, is near,” so that you look upon your poor brother begrudgingly and give him nothing. He will cry out to the LORD against you, and you will be guilty of sin.
Sargies, ka tavā sirdī nav blēdības, ka tu nesaki: septītais gads, tas atlaišanas gads, ir tuvu, un tava acs būtu ļauna pret savu brāli, kas nabags, un tu viņam nedod; tad viņš par tevi brēks uz To Kungu, un tas tev būs par grēku.
10 Give generously to him, and do not let your heart be grieved when you do so. And because of this the LORD your God will bless you in all your work and in everything to which you put your hand.
Dod viņam labprāt, lai tava sirds nav ļauna, kad tu viņam dod, jo tādēļ Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tevi svētīs visā tavā darbā un pie visa, kur tu savu roku pieliksi.
11 For there will never cease to be poor in the land; that is why I am commanding you to open wide your hand to your brother and to the poor and needy in your land.
Jo tur nabagu netrūks tai zemē, tādēļ es tev pavēlu un saku: atvērdams atver savu roku savam brālim, kas top spaidīts un ir nabags tavā zemē.
12 If a fellow Hebrew, a man or a woman, is sold to you and serves you six years, then in the seventh year you must set him free.
Kad tavs brālis tev būs pārdots, Ebrejs vai Ebrejiete, tad lai viņš tev kalpo sešus gadus, bet septītā gadā tev būs viņu svabadu atlaist no sevis.
13 And when you release him, do not send him away empty-handed.
Un kad tu viņu svabadu atlaidi, tad neatlaid viņu tukšu.
14 You are to furnish him liberally from your flock, your threshing floor, and your winepress. You shall give to him as the LORD your God has blessed you.
Apdāvinādams apdāvini to no sava ganāmā pulka, no savas klēts un no sava vīna spaida; ar ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tevi svētījis, no tā tev būs viņam dot.
15 Remember that you were slaves in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God redeemed you; that is why I am giving you this command today.
Un piemini, ka tu esi bijis kalps Ēģiptes zemē, un ka Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tevi atpestījis, tāpēc es tev šodien pavēlu šās lietas.
16 But if your servant says to you, ‘I do not want to leave you,’ because he loves you and your household and is well off with you,
Bet ja viņš uz tevi sacīs: es no tevis negribu aiziet, tāpēc ka viņš tevi un tavu namu mīl, ka tam labi klājās pie tevis.
17 then take an awl and pierce it through his ear into the door, and he will become your servant for life. And treat your maidservant the same way.
Tad ņem īlenu un piedur viņa ausi pie durvīm, tad tas tev būs par kalpu mūžīgi; tāpat dari savai kalponei.
18 Do not regard it as a hardship to set your servant free, because his six years of service were worth twice the wages of a hired hand. And the LORD your God will bless you in all you do.
Lai tev grūti nenākas viņu atlaist svabadu no sevis, jo sešus gadus viņš tev nokalpojis divkārtīgu algādža algu; tad tevi Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, svētīs pie visa, ko tu darīsi.
19 You must set apart to the LORD your God every firstborn male produced by your herds and flocks. You are not to put the firstborn of your oxen to work, nor are you to shear the firstborn of your flock.
Ikvienu pirmdzimto, kas dzimst no tavām govīm un avīm, to tēviņu tev būs svētīt Tam Kungam, savam Dievam; ar savas govs pirmdzimto tev nebūs strādāt, un savu avju pirmdzimto tev nebūs cirpt.
20 Each year you and your household are to eat it before the LORD your God in the place the LORD will choose.
Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, priekšā tev un tavam namam to būs ēst ikgadus tai vietā, ko Tas Kungs izredzēs.
21 But if an animal has a defect, is lame or blind, or has any serious flaw, you must not sacrifice it to the LORD your God.
Bet ja tam kāda vaina, ka ir vai klibs vai akls, jeb ja ir cita kāda ļauna vaina, tad tev to nebūs upurēt Tam Kungam, savam Dievam.
22 Eat it within your gates; both the ceremonially unclean and clean may eat it as they would a gazelle or a deer.
Savos vārtos to ēdat, nešķīstais un šķīstais kopā, itin kā stirnu un kā briedi.
23 But you must not eat the blood; pour it on the ground like water.
Tikai viņa asinis tev nebūs ēst, tās tev būs izliet zemē kā ūdeni.
