Deuteronomy 15
1 Every seven years thou shalt make a release.
Ary isam-pito taona dia manaova fanafahana ianao.
2 And this [is] the ordinance of the release: thou shalt remit every private debt which thy neighbour owes thee, and thou shalt not ask payment of it from thy brother; for it has been called a release to the Lord thy God.
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 Of a stranger thou shalt ask again whatsoever he has of thine, but to thy brother thou shalt remit his debt to thee.
Ny olona hafa firenena ihany no azonao terena handoa; fa izay anao amin’ ny rahalahinao kosa dia hafoinao;
4 For [thus] there shall not be a poor person in the midst of thee, for the Lord thy God will surely bless thee in the land which the Lord thy God gives thee by inheritance, that thou shouldest inherit it.
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 And if ye shall indeed hearken to the voice of the Lord your God, to keep and do all these commandments, as many as I charge thee this day,
raha mihaino tsara ny feon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao ianao ka mitandrina hanaraka izao lalàna rehetra izao, izay andidiako anao anio.
6 (for the Lord thy God has blessed thee in the way of which he spoke to thee, ) then thou shalt lend to many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt rule over many nations, but they shall not rule over thee.
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 And if there shall be in the midst of thee a poor [man] of thy brethren in one of thy cities in the land, which the Lord thy God gives thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, neither shalt thou by any means close up thine hand from thy brother who is in want.
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 Thou shalt surely open thine hands to him, and shalt lend to him as much as he wants according to his need.
fa sokafy tsara aminy ny tananao, ka ampisambory izay ilainy, araka izay mahory azy.
9 Take heed to thyself that there be not a secret thing in thine heart, an iniquity, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, draws nigh; and thine eye shall be evil to thy brother that is in want, and thou shalt not give to him, and he shall cry against thee to the Lord, and there shall be great sin in thee.
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 Thou shalt surely give to him, and thou shalt lend him as much as he wants, according as he is in need; and thou shalt not grudge in thine heart as thou givest to him, because on this account the Lord thy God will bless thee in all thy works, and in all things on which thou shalt lay thine 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 the poor shall not fail off thy land, therefore I charge thee to do this thing, saying, Thou shalt surely open thine hands to thy poor brother, and to him that is distressed upon thy 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 And if thy brother [or sister], a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman, be sold to thee, he shall serve thee six years, and in the seventh year thou shalt send him out free from thee.
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 thou shalt send him out free from thee, thou shalt not send him out empty.
Ary raha hovotsoranao ho afaka izy, dia tsy havelanao handeha fotsiny;
14 Thou shalt give him provision for the way from thy flock, and from thy corn, and from thy wine; as the Lord thy God has blessed thee, thou shalt give to him.
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 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and the Lord thy God redeemed thee from thence; therefore I charge thee to do this thing.
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 And if he should say to thee, I will not go out from thee, because he continues to love thee and thy house, because he is well with thee;
Kanefa raha hoy izy aminao: Tsy hiala aminao aho, satria tsy foiny ianao sy ny ankohonanao, ka finaritra aminao izy,
17 then thou shalt take an awl, and bore his ear through to the door, and he shall be thy servant for ever; and in like manner shalt thou do to thy maid-servant.
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 It shall not seem hard to thee when they are sent out free from thee, because [thy servant] has served thee six years according to the annual hire of a hireling; so the Lord thy God shall bless thee in all things whatsoever thou mayest 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 Every first-born that shall be born among thy kine and thy sheep, thou shalt sanctify the males to the Lord thy God; thou shalt not work with thy first-born calf, and thou shalt not shear the first-born of thy sheep.
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 Thou shalt eat it before the Lord year by year in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, thou and thy house.
Eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao no hihinananao sy ny ankohonanao azy isan-taona isan-taona eo amin’ ny fitoerana izay hofidin’ i Jehovah.
21 And if there be in it a blemish, if it be lame or blind, an evil blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it to the Lord thy 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 Thou shalt eat it in thy cities; the unclean in thee and the clean shall eat it in like manner, as the doe or the stag.
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 Only ye shall not eat the blood; thou shalt pour it out on the earth as water.
Kanefa ny ràny no aza hanina, fa aidino amin’ ny tany toy ny rano.
