Deuteronomy 15
1 At the end of every seven years you must cancel debts.
Ary isam-pito taona dia manaova fanafahana ianao.
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.
Ary izao no ho fomban’ ny fanafahana: Ny tompon-trosa rehetra izay nampanàna vola tamin’ ny namany dia hamoy izany; tsy hanery ny namany izay rahalahiny handoa izy, satria efa voantso ny fanafahan’ i Jehovah.
3 You may collect something from a foreigner, but you must forgive whatever your brother owes you.
Ny olona hafa firenena ihany no azonao terena handoa; fa izay anao amin’ ny rahalahinao kosa dia hafoinao;
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,
kanefa tsy dia hisy olo-malahelo eo aminao, fa hitahy anao tokoa Jehovah eo amin’ ny tany izay omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ho lovanao,
5 if only you obey the LORD your God and are careful to follow all these commandments I am giving you today.
raha mihaino tsara ny feon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao ka mitandrina hanaraka izao lalàna rehetra izao, izay andidiako anao anio.
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.
Fa Jehovah Andriamanitrao hitahy anao araka izay nolazainy taminao; ary hampisambotra ny firenena maro ianao, fa ianao kosa tsy hisambotra; ary hanapaka firenena maro ianao, fa izy kosa tsy mba hanapaka anao.
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.
Raha misy malahelo ny rahalahinao ao an-tanànanao anankiray amin’ ny taninao izay omen’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao, dia aza manamafy ny fonao, na manakombona ny tananao, amin’ ny rahalahinao malahelo;
8 Instead, you are to open your hand to him and freely loan him whatever he needs.
fa sokafy tsara aminy ny tananao, ka ampisambory izay ilainy, araka izay mahory azy.
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.
Mitandrema fandrao hisy hevi-dratsy ao am-ponao manao hoe: Antomotra ny taona fahafito, dia ny taom-panafahana; ary ho ratsy fijery ny rahalahinao malahelo ianao, ka tsy hanome azy akory ianao; ary hitaraina amin’ i Jehovah hiampanga anao Izy, ka dia ho fahotanao izany.
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.
Omeo tokoa izy, ary aoka tsy halahelo ny fonao raha manome azy, satria izany zavatra izany no hitahian’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao amin’ ny asanao rehetra sy amin’ izay rehetra ataon’ ny tananao.
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.
Fa ny tany tsy ilaozan’ olo-malahelo, koa izany no andidiako anao hoe: Sokafy tsara amin’ ny rahalahinao ny tananao, dia amin’ ny malahelo sy ny mahantra eo amin’ ny taninao.
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.
Raha hamidy aminao ny namanao, na lehilahy Hebreo, na vehivavy Hebreo, ka efa nanompo anao enin-taona, dia hovotsoranao ho afaka izy amin’ ny taona fahafito.
13 And when you release him, do not send him away empty-handed.
Ary raha hovotsoranao ho afaka izy, dia tsy havelanao handeha fotsiny;
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.
fa hisy hampitondrainao azy avy amin’ ny ondry aman’ osinao ary avy amin’ ny famoloanao sy ny famiazanao: araka izay efa nitahian’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao no hanomezanao azy.
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.
Ary tsarovy fa andevo tany amin’ ny tany Egypta ianao, nefa Jehovah Andriamanitrao efa nanavotra anao, koa izany no andidiako anao izao zavatra izao anio.
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,
Kanefa raha hoy izy aminao: Tsy hiala aminao aho, satria tsy foiny ianao sy ny ankohonanao, ka finaritra aminao izy,
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.
dia halainao ny haolo ka hotevehinao amin’ ny varavarana ny sofiny, dia ho mpanomponao mandrakizay izy. Ary toy izany koa no hataonao amin’ ny ankizivavinao.
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.
Aza ataonao ho sarotra ny hamotsotra azy ho afaka, fa indroa toraka ny karaman’ ny mpikarama no azonao tamin’ ny nanompoany anao enin-taona; dia hitahy anao Jehovah Andriamanitrao amin’ izay rehetra ataonao.
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.
Ny lahy rehetra amin’ ny voalohan-teraky ny ombinao sy ny ondry aman’ osinao dia hohamasininao ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao; aza mampiasa ny voalohan-teraky ny ombinao, na manety ny voalohan-teraky ny ondry aman’ osinao.
20 Each year you and your household are to eat it before the LORD your God in the place the LORD will choose.
Eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao no hihinananao sy ny ankohonanao azy isan-taona isan-taona eo amin’ ny fitoerana izay hofidin’ i Jehovah.
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.
Fa raha misy kilemany izy: na mandringa, na jamba, na izay kilema ratsy hafa akory, dia aza vonoinao hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ireny.
22 Eat it within your gates; both the ceremonially unclean and clean may eat it as they would a gazelle or a deer.
Ao an-tanànanao ihany no hihinananao ireny; na ny olona maloto na ny madio dia samy mahazo mihinana azy, tahaka ny ahazoany mihinana ny gazela sy ny diera.
23 But you must not eat the blood; pour it on the ground like water.
Kanefa ny ràny no aza hanina, fa aidino amin’ ny tany toy ny rano.
