< Leviticus 25 >
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses on mount Sinai, saying:
Alò, SENYÈ a te pale a Moïse. Li te di:
2 Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: When you will have entered into the land which I will give to you, rest on the Sabbath of the Lord.
“Pale a fis Israël yo pou di yo: ‘Lè nou vini nan peyi ke Mwen va bannou an, alò, tè a va gen yon Saba pou SENYÈ a.
3 For six years you shall sow your field, and for six years you shall care for your vineyard, and you shall gather its fruits.
Pandan sis ane, nou va plante chan nou yo, e pandan sis ane, nou va netwaye chan rezen an e rasanble pou fè rekòlt li,
4 But in the seventh year, there shall be a Sabbath of the land, a resting of the Lord. You shall not sow your field, and you shall not care for your vineyard.
men pandan setyèm ane a, tè a va gen yon repo Saba, yon Saba pou SENYÈ a. Nou p ap ni plante chan an ni netwaye chan rezen an.
5 What the soil shall spontaneously produce, you shall not harvest. And you shall not gather the grapes of the first-fruits as a crop. For it is a year of rest for the land.
Donn nan chan ki grandi pa aza konsa a, nou pa pou rekòlte li, e rezen nou yo ki parèt sou branch ki pa t taye yo, nou pa pou ranmase yo. Tè a va gen yon ane Saba.
6 But these shall be yours for food, for you and for your men and women servants, and for your hired hands, and for the newcomers who sojourn with you:
Konsa, nou tout va gen pwodwi Saba nan peyi a kòm manje nou; nou menm, esklav yo, ni mal ni femèl, anplwaye nou yo, etranje ki rezidan pami nou yo, sila ki viv tankou moun lòt nasyon pami nou yo.
7 all that grows on its own shall provide food for your beasts and cattle.
Menm bèf nou yo avèk bèt ki nan peyi a va gen tout pwodwi li kòm manje.
8 You shall also number for yourselves seven weeks of years, that is, seven times seven, which together makes forty-nine years.
“‘Nou dwe osi kontwole sèt Saba pa lane yo pou nou menm; sèt fwa sèt ane, jiskaske nou kontwole tan ke sèt Saba nan Saba ekoule yo; otreman, karant-nèf ane.
9 And you shall sound the trumpet in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, at the time of the atonement, throughout all your land.
Alò, lè lè sa a rive nou va sone kòn belye a toupatou nan dizyèm jou nan setyèm mwa a. Nan jou ekspiyasyon an, nou va sone yon kòn toupatou nan peyi a.
10 And you shall sanctify the fiftieth year, and you shall proclaim a remission for all the inhabitants of your land: for the same is the Jubilee. A man shall return to his possession, and each one shall go back to his original family,
Se konsa, nou va konsakre senkantyèm ane a e pwoklame remisyon toupatou nan peyi a, a tout abitan li yo. Li va yon jibile pou nou, e nou chak va retounen nan pwòp teren pa nou ak pwòp fanmi pa nou.
11 for it is the Jubilee and the fiftieth year. You shall not sow, and you shall not reap what grows in the field of its own accord, and you shall not gather the first-fruits of the crop,
Nou va gen senkantyèm ane a kòm yon ane jibile. Nou pa pou plante, ni rekòlte sa ki grandi konsa nan tè, ni ranmase fwi ki sòti nan branch ki pa t netwaye yo.
12 due to the sanctification of the Jubilee. But you shall eat them as they present themselves.
Paske se yon jibile; li va sen pou nou. Nou va manje pwodwi li ki sòti nan chan an.
13 In the year of the Jubilee, all shall return to their possessions.
“‘Nan ane jibile sila a, nou chak va retounen nan pwòp tè pa nou.
14 When you will sell anything to your fellow citizen, or buy anything from him, do not cause your brother grief, but buy from him according to the number of years from the Jubilee,
“‘Anplis, si nou fè lavant bay zanmi nou, oswa achte nan men zanmi nou, nou pa pou fè tò a youn lòt.
15 and he shall sell to you according to the computation of the produce.
Konsènan nonb ane apre jibile yo, konsa, nou va achte nan men zanmi nou. Li dwe vann nou selon nonb ane rekòlt yo ki rete.
16 The more years that will remain after the Jubilee, the more the price shall increase, and the less the time is numbered, so much less shall the purchase price be. For he will sell to you the time for the produce.
Nan menm fòs ane ki rete yo, nou va ogmante pri a, e nan menm fòs ane ki manke yo, nou va redwi pri a, paske li se fòs rekòlt ki rete ke l ap vann ou an.
17 Do not be willing to afflict your countrymen, but let each one fear his God. For I am the Lord your God.
Konsa, pinga nou fè tò a youn lòt, men nou va krent Bondye nou an; paske Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
18 Accomplish my precepts, and observe my judgments, and complete them, so that you may be able to live in the land without any fear,
“‘Se konsa ke nou va obsève règleman Mwen yo e kenbe jijman Mwen yo, pou akonpli yo, pou nou kapab viv an sekirite sou tè a.
19 and so that the soil may produce its fruits for you, from which you may eat, even to fullness, dreading violence by no one.
“‘Konsa, tè a va donnen pwodwi li pou nou kapab manje vant plen, e viv an sekirite sou tè a.’”
20 But if you will say: What shall we eat in the seventh year, if we do not sow and do not gather our produce?
“Men si nou ta di: ‘Kisa n ap manje nan setyèm ane a si nou pa ni plante ni rekòlte rekòlt nou yo? Gade byen, nou pa p semen, ni rasanble pwodwi nou;’
21 I will give my blessing to you in the sixth year, and it shall yield the produce of three years.
alò, Mwen va tèlman regle benediksyon Mwen yo pou nou nan sizyèm ane a, pou li kab pote yon rekòlt twazan.
22 And in the eighth year you shall sow, but you shall eat from the old produce, until the ninth year, until what is new matures, you shall eat what is old.
Lè nou ap plante nan uityèm ane a, nou kapab toujou manje ansyen bagay a rekòlt yo, e nou va kontinye manje vye a jis rive nan nevyèm ane a lè rekòlt pa li kòmanse antre a.
23 Also, the land shall not be sold in perpetuity, for it is mine, and you are newcomers and settlers to me.
“Tè a, anplis, pa pou vann nèt, paske tè a se pa M; paske nou se sèlman etranje k ap demere avè M.
24 Therefore, every region of your possession shall be sold under the condition of redemption.
Konsa, nan chak mòso tè ke nou posede, fòk nou fè pwovizyon pou peye ranson tè a.
25 If your brother, being in need, will have sold his little possession and his close relative is willing, he is able to redeem what he had sold.
“Si yon moun peyi parèy nou an vin tèlman pòv ke li oblije vann yon pati nan tè li a, alò, se fanmi pi pre li a ki dwe peye ranson ke manm fanmi li te vann nan.
26 But if he has no near relative, and he himself is able to find the price to redeem it,
Oswa nan ka a yon moun ki pa gen fanmi, men ki tèlman regle zafè li pou twouve ase mwayen pou peye ranson an,
27 the produce shall be calculated from that time when he sold it. And what is lacking, he shall repay to the buyer, and so he shall receive his possession.
alò, li va kalkile ane yo soti lè li te vann nan, e remèt fòs balans sa a moun ke li te vann li an. Konsa li va retounen vin pwòp teren pa l.
28 But if his hand will not have discovered a way to repay the price, the buyer shall have what he bought, until the year of the Jubilee. For in that year all that has been sold shall return to the owner, and to the original possessor.
Men si li poko twouve ase mwayen pou reprann li pou kont li, alò, sa ke li te vann nan, va rete nan men a sila ki achte li a jis rive nan ane jibile a. Men nan jibile a, li va libere, pou li kapab retounen kon pwòp tè pa li.
29 Whoever will have sold a house within the walls of a city shall have the freedom to redeem it, until one year has been completed.
“Menm jan an, si yon mesye vann yon kay nan yon vil ki antoure avèk miray, alò, dwa pou peye ranson pa l la va dire pou tout 1 nan.
30 If he has not redeemed it, and the year will have turned full circle, the buyer and his posterity shall possess it, in perpetuity, and it is not able to be redeemed, even in the Jubilee.
Men si li pa peye ranson li an nan 1 nan ki ekoule a, alò, kay ki nan vil antoure avèk miray la va pase nèt bay sila ki te achte li pou tout jenerasyon li yo. Li p ap remèt nan jibile a.
31 But if the house is in a village, which has no walls, it shall be sold by the law of the fields. If it has not been redeemed beforehand, then in the Jubilee it shall return to the owner.
Men kay nan vil ki pa antoure avèk miray yo va konsidere kòm chan ouvri; yo gen dwa peye ranson an e yo va remèt nan jibile a.
32 The buildings of the Levites, which are in the cities, are always able to be redeemed.
“Men nan vil ki pou Levit yo, Levit yo gen yon dwa pèmanan pou peye ranson nan vil ki se posesyon pa yo.
33 If they have not been redeemed, then in the Jubilee they shall return to the owners, for the houses of the cities of the Levites are for their possession among the sons of Israel.
Konsa, sa ki pou Levit yo kapab peye ranson e yon vant kay nan vil posesyon sila a va remèt nan jibile a. Paske vil Levit yo se posesyon pa yo pami fis Israël yo.
34 But let not their suburbs be sold, for it is an everlasting possession.
Men chan pou bèt nan vil pa yo pa pou vann, paske sa se posesyon pa yo pou tout tan.
35 If your brother has become impoverished, or infirm of hand, and you take him in, like a newcomer or a sojourner, and he lives with you,
“Alò, nan ka ke yon moun peyi nou an vin pòv e zafè li vin gate, alò, nou gen pou bay li soutyen. Li va viv tankou etranje, oswa yon moun k ap demere, pou li kapab toujou rete pami nou.
36 do not accept usury from him, nor anything more than what you gave. Fear your God, so that your brother may be able to live with you.
Pa pran enterè ni avantaj sou li, men onore Bondye ou a pou li kapab viv avèk ou.
37 You shall not give him your money by usury, nor exact from him an overabundance of produce.
Ou pa pou bay li lajan ou avèk enterè, ni manje ou pou fè pwofi.
38 I am the Lord your God, who led you away from the land of Egypt, so that I might give to you the land of Canaan, and so that I may be your God.
Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an ki te fè nou sòti nan peyi Égypte la pou bannou peyi Canaan an pou M kapab Bondye nou.
39 If your brother, having been compelled by poverty, will have sold himself to you, you shall not oppress him with the servitude of indentured servants.
“Si yon moun peyi parèy nou vin tèlman pòv pami nou menm, e li vin vann tèt li bannou, nou pa pou desann li nan sèvis esklavaj.
40 But he shall be like a hired hand or a settler; he shall work with you, until the year of the Jubilee.
Li va rete avèk nou kòm yon jounalye, menm kòm yon demere. Li va sèvi avèk nou jis rive nan ane jibile a.
41 And after that, he shall depart with his children, and he shall return to his kindred, to the possession of his fathers.
Konsa li va sòti de nou menm, li menm avèk fis li yo avè l, e li va retounen vè fanmi li, pou li kapab retounen nan teren zansèt li yo.
42 For these are my servants, and I led them away from the land of Egypt; let them not be sold into the condition of servitude.
Paske yo se sèvitè Mwen ke Mwen te mennen sòti nan peyi Égypte la. Yo pa pou vann kon vant esklav la.
43 Do not afflict him by power, but be fearful of your God.
Nou pa pou domine li avèk severite, men onore Bondye nou an.
44 Let your male and female servants be from the nations which are all around you,
“Selon esklav, mal ak femèl ke petèt nou kapab gen, —-nou kapab jwenn esklav mal ak femèl nan nasyon payen ki antoure nou yo.
45 and from the newcomers who sojourn with you, or who have been born from them in your land. These you shall have as servants,
Alò, osi, se soti nan fis a demere k ap viv pami nou yo, ke nou kapab vin genyen yo, e ladann nan fanmi pa yo ki avèk nou, ke yo va gen tan pwodwi nan peyi nou; yo menm osi kapab devni posesyon pa nou.
46 and, by the right of inheritance, you shall transmit them to your posterity, and you shall possess them forever. But do not oppress your brothers, the sons of Israel, by power.
Nou kapab menm sede a fis apre nou yo, pou resevwa yo kòm yon posesyon. Nou kapab sèvi yo kòm esklav pou tout tan. Men pou moun peyi nou an, nou pa pou domine avèk severite youn sou lòt.
47 If the hand of a newcomer or a sojourner will have grown strong among you, and your brother, having become impoverished, will have sold himself to him, or to any of his stock,
“Alò, si mwayen a yon etranje, oswa yon demere avèk nou vin rich, e yon moun peyi parèy a nou an vin tèlman pòv ke li vin vann tèt li bay yon etranje ki demere pami nou, oswa desandan a yon fanmi etranje,
48 after the sale, he is able to be redeemed. Whoever is willing among his brothers shall redeem him:
alò, li va gen dwa peye ranson nan moman li fenk vann nan. Youn nan frè li yo kapab peye ranson li an,
49 either the paternal uncle, or the paternal uncle’s son, or his close relative, by blood or by affinity. But if he himself will be able also, he shall redeem himself,
oswa tonton li, oswa fis tonton li, kapab peye ranson li an, oswa si li vin pwospere, li kapab peye ranson an pou pwòp tèt li.
50 considering only the years from the time of his selling until the year of the Jubilee, and calculating the money for which he was sold, according to the number of years and the accounting of a hired hand.
Konsa, li menm avèk sila ki te achte li a, va kalkile ansanm soti nan ane ke li te vann tèt li bay li menm nan jis pou rive nan jibile a. Pri lavant li an va koresponn a nonb ane ke li te avèk li yo. Se tankou jou a yon jounalye ke li va avèk li.
51 If there will have been many years which remain until the Jubilee, according to these shall he also repay the price.
Si gen toujou anpil ane, li va remèt yon pati nan pri lavant lan pou kouvri yo pou peye pwòp ranson pa li.
52 If few, he shall determine the accounting with him according to the number of years, and he shall repay to the buyer by what is left remaining of the years;
Si se pa anpil ane ki rete pou rive nan ane jibile a, li va kalkile sa avèk li. Selon ane ki rete yo li va remèt menm fòs la pou pri ranson an.
53 his wages being charged by what served before. He shall not afflict him violently in your sight.
Menm tankou yon ouvriye ki anplwaye ane pa ane li va konsa avèk li. Li p ap domine sou li avèk severite devan zye nou.
54 But if, by these means, he will not be able to be redeemed, then in the year of the Jubilee he shall depart with his children.
“Menm si li pa peye ranson an pa mwayen sila yo, li va toujou sòti nan ane jibile a, li menm avèk fis li yo avè l.
55 For they are my servants, the sons of Israel, whom I led away from the land of Egypt.
Paske fis Israël yo se sèvitè Mwen; yo se sèvitè Mwen ke M te mennen fè sòti nan peyi Égypte yo. Mwen se Senyè a, Bondye nou an.
