Leviticus 25
1 Then the LORD said to Moses on Mount Sinai,
Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy teo an-tendrombohitra Sinay ka nanao hoe:
2 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: When you enter the land that I am giving you, the land itself must observe a Sabbath to the LORD.
Mitenena amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely hoe: Rehefa tonga any amin’ ny tany izay omeko anareo ianareo, aoka hisy fitsaharana ho an’ ny tany, dia sabata ho an’ i Jehovah.
3 For six years you may sow your field and prune your vineyard and gather its crops.
Enin-taona no hamafazanao ny taninao, enin-taona no hanamboaranao ny sahanao sy hanangonanao ny vokatra;
4 But in the seventh year there shall be a Sabbath of complete rest for the land—a Sabbath to the LORD. You are not to sow your field or prune your vineyard.
fa ny taona fahafito kosa ho tena fitsaharana ho an’ ny tany, dia sabata ho an’ i Jehovah; aza mamafy amin’ ny taninao ianao, ary aza mamboatra ny sahanao.
5 You are not to reap the aftergrowth of your harvest or gather the grapes of your untended vines. The land must have a year of complete rest.
Aza mijinja izay maniry ho azy avy tamin’ ny voa nihintsana tamin’ ny fararano lasa, ary aza mioty ny voaloboka avy tamin’ izay tsy namboarinao; fa aoka ho taona fitsaharana ho an’ ny tany izany.
6 Whatever the land yields during the Sabbath year shall be food for you—for yourself, your manservant and maidservant, the hired hand or foreigner who stays with you,
Ary izay maniry ho azy amin’ ny sabatan’ ny tany no ho hanina ho anao sy ny ankizilahinao sy ny ankizivavinao sy ny mpikarama sy ny vahiny eo aminao
7 and for your livestock and the wild animals in your land. All its growth may serve as food.
sy ny biby fiompinao ary ny bibidia izay eo amin’ ny taninao; izay vokatra rehetra eo no hohaniny.
8 And you shall count off seven Sabbaths of years—seven times seven years—so that the seven Sabbaths of years amount to forty-nine years.
Ary manisà sabatan-taona fito ho anao, dia fito taona impito, ka ny hanisanao ny andron’ ireo sabatan-taona fito ireo dia sivy amby efa-polo taona.
9 Then you are to sound the horn far and wide on the tenth day of the seventh month, the Day of Atonement. You shall sound it throughout your land.
Dia mitsofa anjomara avo feo amin’ ny andro fahafolo amin’ ny volana fahafito; dia amin’ ny andro fanavotana no hitsofanareo anjomara eran’ ny taninareo.
10 So you are to consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty in the land for all its inhabitants. It shall be your Jubilee, when each of you is to return to his property and to his clan.
Ary hamasino ny taona fahadimam-polo, ka miantsoa fanafahana amin’ ny tany ho an’ ny mponina rehetra ao aminy; Jobily ho anareo izany, ka samia mody any amin’ ny taninareo avy ianareo sy any amin’ ny mpianakavinareo avy.
11 The fiftieth year will be a Jubilee for you; you are not to sow the land or reap its aftergrowth or harvest the untended vines.
Jobily ho anareo izany taona fahadimam-polo izany; aza mamafy ianareo, ary aza mijinja izay maniry ho azy avy tamin’ ny voa nihintsana tamin’ ny fararano lasa, ary aza mioty ny avy tamin’ izay tsy namboarinareo;
12 For it is a Jubilee; it shall be holy to you. You may eat only the crops taken directly from the field.
fa Jobily izany ka ho masìna ho anareo. Izay vokatra alaina any an-tsaha no hohaninareo.
13 In this Year of Jubilee, each of you shall return to his own property.
Amin’ izany taona Jobily izany dia samy hody amin’ ny taninareo avy ianareo.
14 If you make a sale to your neighbor or a purchase from him, you must not take advantage of each other.
Ary raha mivarotra na mividy zavatra amin’ ny namanao ianao, aza misy manao sarotra:
15 You are to buy from your neighbor according to the number of years since the last Jubilee; he is to sell to you according to the number of harvest years remaining.
araka ny isan’ ny taona aorian’ ny Jobily no hividiananao amin’ ny namanao; ary araka ny isan’ ny fararano no hivarotany aminao.
16 You shall increase the price in proportion to a greater number of years, or decrease it in proportion to a lesser number of years; for he is selling you a given number of harvests.
Araka ny hamaron’ ny taona no hampitomboanao ny vidiny, ary araka ny havitsin’ ny taona sisa no hampihenanao ny vidiny; fa araka ny isan’ ny fararano no hivarotany aminao.
17 Do not take advantage of each other, but fear your God; for I am the LORD your God.
Ary aza misy manao sarotra ianareo, fa matahora an’ Andriamanitrao; fa Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrareo.
18 You are to keep My statutes and carefully observe My judgments, so that you may dwell securely in the land.
Ary araho ny didiko, ary tandremo ny fitsipiko, ka araho izy; dia handry fahizay amin’ ny tany ianareo.
19 Then the land will yield its fruit, so that you can eat your fill and dwell in safety in the land.
Ary ny tany hahavoka-javatra dia hihinana ianareo ka ho voky, ary handry fahizay.
20 Now you may wonder, ‘What will we eat in the seventh year if we do not sow or gather our produce?’
Ary andrao ianareo manao hoe: Inona no hohaninay amin’ ny taona fahafito? fa, indro, tsy mamafy izahay, na manangona ny vokatray;
21 But I will send My blessing upon you in the sixth year, so that the land will yield a crop sufficient for three years.
dia hataoko aminareo ny fitahiako amin’ ny taona fahenina, ka hisy vokatra ampy ho anareo amin’ ny telo taona.
22 While you are sowing in the eighth year, you will be eating from the previous harvest, until the ninth year’s harvest comes in.
Ary hamafy amin’ ny taona fahavalo ianareo ka hihinana ny tranainy mandra-pahatongan’ ny taona fahasivy; mandra-pahatongan’ ny vao no hihinananareo ny tranainy.
23 The land must not be sold permanently, because it is Mine, and you are but foreigners and residents with Me.
Ary ny tany tsy hatao varo-maty, satria Ahy ny tany; fa vahiny sy mpivahiny amiko ianareo.
24 Thus for every piece of property you possess, you must provide for the redemption of the land.
Ary havelanareo ho azo avotana ny tany eo amin’ ny tany rehetra izay lovanareo.
25 If your brother becomes impoverished and sells some of his property, his nearest of kin may come and redeem what his brother has sold.
Raha tàhiny mihamalahelo ny rahalahinao, ka nivarotany ny taniny, dia ho avy ny havany akaiky ka hanavotra izay namidin’ ny rahalahiny.
26 Or if a man has no one to redeem it for him, but he prospers and acquires enough to redeem his land,
Ary raha tsy manan-kavana hanavotra ralehilahy, nefa nambinina izy ka nahazo izay ampy ho enti-manavotra azy,
27 he shall calculate the years since its sale, repay the balance to the man to whom he sold it, and return to his property.
dia aoka hanisa ny taona hatramin’ ny nivarotany azy izy ka handoa ny hevitry ny taona sisa ho an’ ny lehilahy izay nivarotany azy; ka dia hody amin’ ny taniny izy.
28 But if he cannot obtain enough to repay him, what he sold will remain in possession of the buyer until the Year of Jubilee. In the Jubilee, however, it is to be released, so that he may return to his property.
Fa raha tsy nahazo izay ampy handoavana izany izy, izay namidiny dia mbola hitoetra eo an-tànan’ ilay nividy azy ihany mandra-pahatongan’ ny taona Jobily; ary ho afaka izany amin’ ny Jobily, ka hody amin’ ny taniny ralehilahy.
29 If a man sells a house in a walled city, he retains his right of redemption until a full year after its sale; during that year it may be redeemed.
Ary raha misy olona mivarotra trano itoerana ao amin’ ny tanàna mimanda, dia hahazo manavotra azy izy mandra-pahatapitry ny herintaona nivarotany azy; fa ao anatin’ izany no hahazoany manavotra azy.
30 If it is not redeemed by the end of a full year, then the house in the walled city is permanently transferred to its buyer and his descendants. It is not to be released in the Jubilee.
Fa raha tsy voavotra mandra-pahatapitry ny herintaona kosa ilay trano ao amin’ ny tanàna mimanda, dia tapaka ho varo-maty ho an’ izay nividy azy sy ho an’ ny taranany izany; tsy ho afaka izany na dia amin’ ny Jobily aza.
31 But houses in villages with no walls around them are to be considered as open fields. They may be redeemed, and they shall be released in the Jubilee.
Fa ny trano ao amin’ ny vohitra izay tsy misy manda manodidina kosa dia hatao taha, ka ny tany ihany; ho azo avotana ihany izany, na ho afaka amin’ ny Jobily.
32 As for the cities of the Levites, the Levites always have the right to redeem their houses in the cities they possess.
Kanefa ny amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Levita, ny trano ao amin’ ny tanàna izay ho anjarany dia ho azon’ ny Levita avotana ihany na oviana na oviana.
33 So whatever belongs to the Levites may be redeemed—a house sold in a city they possess—and must be released in the Jubilee, because the houses in the cities of the Levites are their possession among the Israelites.
Ary raha misy Levita manavotra azy, dia ho afaka amin’ ny Jobily ny trano izay namidy sy ny tanàna izay anjarany; fa ny trano ao an-tanànan’ ny Levita dia lovany ao amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
34 But the open pastureland around their cities may not be sold, for this is their permanent possession.
Fa ny tany manodidina ny tanànany kosa dia tsy azo hamidy; fa ho lovany mandrakizay izany.
35 Now if your countryman becomes destitute and cannot support himself among you, then you are to help him as you would a foreigner or stranger, so that he can continue to live among you.
Ary raha mihamalahelo ny rahalahinao izay miara-monina aminao ka reraka, dia vonjeo izy, ka aoka mba ho velona eo aminao tahaka ny vahiny sy ny mpivahiny izy.
36 Do not take any interest or profit from him, but fear your God, that your countryman may live among you.
Aza maka zana-bola na tombony aminy; fa matahora an’ Andriamanitrao, mba ho velona eo aminao ny rahalahinao.
37 You must not lend him your silver at interest or sell him your food for profit.
Aza mampanàna vola aminy, ary aza mampisambotra hanina hahazoana tombony:
38 I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan and to be your God.
Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrareo, Izay nitondra anareo nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, hanome anareo ny tany Kanana, mba ho Andriamanitrareo.
39 If a countryman among you becomes destitute and sells himself to you, then you must not force him into slave labor.
Ary raha mihamalahelo ny rahalahinao ka mivaro-tena aminao, aza ampanompoinao toy ny andevo izy;
40 Let him stay with you as a hired worker or temporary resident; he is to work for you until the Year of Jubilee.
fà aoka hitoetra eo aminao tahaka ny mpikarama sy tahaka ny vahiny izy; mandra-pahatongan’ ny taona Jobily no hanompoany anao.
41 Then he and his children are to be released, and he may return to his clan and to the property of his fathers.
Dia ho afaka izy sy ny zanany ka hody amin’ ny mpianakaviny sy amin’ ny tanin-drazany koa.
42 Because the Israelites are My servants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt, they are not to be sold as slaves.
Fa mpanompoko izay nentiko nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta izy ka tsy hamidy tahaka ny andevo.
43 You are not to rule over them harshly, but you shall fear your God.
Aza mampanompo azy fatratra, fa matahora an’ Andriamanitrao.
44 Your menservants and maidservants shall come from the nations around you, from whom you may purchase them.
Ary ny amin’ izay ho andevolahinao sy andevovavinao, dia amin’ ny jentilisa izay manodidina anareo no hividiananareo azy.
45 You may also purchase them from the foreigners residing among you or their clans living among you who are born in your land. These may become your property.
Ary amin’ ny zanaky ny vahiny eo aminareo sy amin’ ny taranany izay haterany eo amin’ ny taninareo no hividiananareo koa; ary dia ho fanananareo izany.
46 You may leave them to your sons after you to inherit as property; you can make them slaves for life. But as for your brothers, the Israelites, no man may rule harshly over his brother.
Ary hataonareo lovan’ ny zanakareo mandimby anareo izany ho fananana holovany ka hampanompoinareo mandrakizay fa ny Zanak’ Isiraely rahalahinareo dia aza mba ampanompoina fatratra.
47 If a foreigner residing among you prospers, but your countryman dwelling near him becomes destitute and sells himself to the foreigner or to a member of his clan,
Ary raha tonga manan-karena ny vahiny izay monina eo aminao na ny mpivahiny, ary ny rahalahinao eo aminy mihamalahelo kosa ka mivaro-tena amin’ ny vahiny eo aminao, na amin’ ny taranaky ny vahiny;
48 he retains the right of redemption after he has sold himself. One of his brothers may redeem him:
na dia nivaro-tena aza izy, dia azo avotana indray; ny anankiray amin’ ny rahalahiny no mahazo manavotra azy:
49 either his uncle or cousin or any close relative from his clan may redeem him. Or if he prospers, he may redeem himself.
na ny rahalahin-drainy, na ny zanak’ olo-mirahalahy aminy, na izay havany akaiky azy amin’ ny mpianakaviny no mahazo manavotra azy; kanefa raha tratry ny ananany, dia hanavo-tena izy.
50 He and his purchaser will then count the time from the year he sold himself up to the Year of Jubilee. The price of his sale will be determined by the number of years, based on the daily wages of a hired hand.
Ary dia hisainy amin’ izay nividy azy hatramin’ ny taona nivarotana azy ka hatramin’ ny taona Jobily; ary ny vola nivarotany ny tenany dia hoheverina araka ny isan’ ny taona; dia ara-kevitry ny andron’ ny mpikarama no hiheverana azy.
51 If many years remain, he must pay for his redemption in proportion to his purchase price.
Raha mbola maro ny taona sisa, dia ara-keviny ihany no handoavany ny avony avy amin’ ny vola vidiny teo aloha.
52 If only a few years remain until the Year of Jubilee, he is to calculate and pay his redemption according to his remaining years.
Any raha vitsy kosa ny taona sisa mandra-pahatongan’ ny taona Jobily, dia hanisa izany aminy izy, ka ara-kevitry ny taona ihany no handoavany ny vola avony.
53 He shall be treated like a man hired from year to year, but a foreign owner must not rule over him harshly in your sight.
Tahaka izay karamaina isan-taona no hitoerany eo aminy; fa aoka tsy hampanompoina fatratra eo imasonao izy.
54 Even if he is not redeemed in any of these ways, he and his children shall be released in the Year of Jubilee.
Ary raha tsy voavotra amin’ izay izy, dia ho afaka amin’ ny taona Jobily izy sy ny zanany koa.
55 For the Israelites are My servants. They are My servants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt. I am the LORD your God.
Fa mpanompoko ny Zanak’ Isiraely, dia mpanompoko izay nentiko nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta: Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrareo.
