Leviticus 25
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses in mount Sinai, saying,
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz sou mòn Sinayi a, li di l' konsa:
2 Speak unto the children of Israel and say unto them, When ye come into the land that I will give you, the land shall celebrate a sabbath to Jehovah.
-Pale ak moun pèp Izrayèl yo, w'a di yo pou mwen: Lè n'a antre nan peyi m'ap ban nou an, n'a bay tè a yon repo pou Seyè a.
3 Six years shalt thou sow thy field, and six years shalt thou prune thy vineyard, and gather in the produce thereof,
Pandan sizan n'a plante jaden nou, n'a taye pye rezen nou yo, epi n'a ranmase rekòt pandan sizan.
4 but in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest for the land, a sabbath to Jehovah. Thy field shalt thou not sow, and thy vineyard shalt thou not prune.
Men, setyèm lanne a n'a kite tè a poze nèt. Se va yon gwo lanne repo pou tè a. Se va yon lanne n'a kite tè a pran repo pou Seyè a. Nou p'ap simen anyen nan jaden nou, ni nou p'ap taye pye rezen nou yo.
5 That which springeth up from the scattered seed of thy harvest thou shalt not reap, and the grapes of thine undressed vines thou shalt not gather: a year of rest shall it be for the land.
Piga nou ranmase grenn ki pouse konsa nan jaden nou pou nou vann. Ni piga nou keyi rezen ki donnen nan pye rezen nou pa t' taye pou nou vann. Se va yon lanne repo nèt pou te a.
6 And the sabbath of the land shall be for food for you, for thee, and for thy bondman, and for thy handmaid, and for thy hired servant, and for him that dwelleth as a sojourner with thee, and for thy cattle,
Pandan tout lanne a tè a va rete san nou pa travay li. Men, sa l'a bay la va sèvi manje pou nou ak pou tout moun k'ap viv lakay nou, pou moun lòt nasyon ki fè ladesant lakay nou.
7 and for the beasts that are in thy land: all the produce thereof shall be for food.
Bèt domestik nou yo ak bèt bwa ki nan peyi a va manje nan sa tè a bay la tou.
8 And thou shalt count seven sabbaths of years, seven times seven years; so that the days of the seven sabbaths of years be unto thee forty-nine years.
N'a konte sèt lanne Repo, ki vle di sèt fwa sèt lanne, sa va ban nou karantnèf lanne.
9 Then shalt thou cause the loud sound of the trumpet to go forth in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month; on the day of atonement shall ye cause the trumpet to go forth throughout your land.
Sou dizyèm jou setyèm mwa a ki jou pou n' mande Bondye gras la, n'a fè kònen twonpèt nan tout peyi a.
10 And ye shall hallow the year of the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty in the land unto all the inhabitants thereof; a [year of] jubilee shall it be unto you, and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family;
N'a mete senkantyèm lanne sa a apa pou Bondye, epi n'a bay lòd pou yo bay tout moun ki esklav nan peyi a libète yo pou tout lanne a. Se va yon lanne rejwisans pou tout moun. Lanne sa a, tou sa yo te vann anvan ap tounen pou ansyen mèt yo ankò osinon pou eritye yo. Tout moun ki te esklav ap tounen lib lakay yo.
11 a year of jubilee shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow, neither reap its aftergrowth, nor gather [the fruit of] its undressed vines.
Senkantyèm lanne sa a va yon lanne rejwisans pou tout moun: Nou p'ap simen anyen nan jaden nou yo, ni nou p'ap ranmase grenn ki pouse konsa nan jaden nou yo pou nou vann, ni nou p'ap keyi rezen ki donnen nan pye rezen nou pa t' taye pou nou vann.
12 For it is the jubilee; it shall be holy unto you; out of the field shall ye eat its produce.
Paske se va yon lanne rejwisans, se va yon lanne n'a mete apa nèt pou Seyè a. Men n'a manje tou sa jaden nou pa t' plante yo bay.
13 In this year of the jubilee ye shall return every man unto his possession.
Nan lanne rejwisans sa a, tout tè ki te vann ap tounen pou ansyen mèt yo ankò.
14 And if ye sell ought unto your neighbour, or buy of your neighbour's hand, ye shall not overreach one another.
Konsa, si n'ap vann yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou yon tè osinon si n'ap achte tè nan men l', piga nou fè koutay yonn sou do lòt.
15 According to the number of years since the jubilee, thou shalt buy of thy neighbour; according to the number of years of the produce, he shall sell unto thee.
Lè n'ap achte yon tè osinon lè w'ap vann yon tè, se pou nou kalkile pri a sou kantite lanne tè a ka travay anvan lanne rejwisans k'ap vini an rive.
16 According to the greater number of the years, thou shalt increase the price thereof; and according to the fewness of years, thou shalt diminish the price of it; for it is the number of crops that he selleth unto thee.
Plis gen lanne anvan lanne rejwisans lan rive, se plis pri a va pi wo. Mwens gen lanne, se plis pri a va pi ba, paske se kantite lanne rekòt tè a ka bay la n'ap vann osinon n'ap achte.
17 And ye shall not oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy God; for I am Jehovah your God.
Pa fè lajan sou do moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou. Men, se pou nou gen krentif pou Bondye nou, paske se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an.
18 And ye shall do my statutes, and observe mine ordinances and do them: thus shall ye dwell in your land securely.
Se pou nou swiv lòd mwen ban nou yo, se pou nou kenbe tout kòmandman m' yo. Se pou nou swiv yo, se konsa n'a kapab viv nan peyi a san nou pa bezwen pè anyen.
19 And the land shall yield its fruit, and ye shall eat and be satisfied, and dwell therein securely.
Tè a va bay rekòt li, n'a manje kont nou, epi n'a viv nan peyi a ak kè poze.
20 And if ye say, What shall we eat in the seventh year? behold, we may not sow, nor gather in our produce;
Men, gen moun ki va mande kisa y'a manje setyèm lanne a si yo pa plante, si yo pa ranmase rekòt.
21 then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, that it may bring forth produce for three years;
Mwen menm, Seyè a, m'a voye benediksyon m' sou tè a pandan sizyèm lanne a pou l' ka donnen rekòt kantite pou twazan.
22 and ye shall sow in the eighth year, and ye shall eat of the old fruit until the ninth year; until her produce come in, ye shall eat the old.
Konsa, lè wityèm lanne a va rive pou nou plante jaden nou yo, n'a jwenn manje toujou nan ansyen rekòt sizyèm lanne a. N'a gen kont pou nou manje jouk nevyèm lanne a rivè, lè n'a gen pou n' ranmase rekòt wityèm lanne sa a.
23 And the land shall not be sold for ever; for the land is mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.
Yon tè pa fèt pou vann pou tout tan, paske tè a pa pou nou, se pou mwen li ye. Nou menm, nou tankou moun lòt peyi ki rete lakay mwen: mwen ban nou dwa sèvi sou tè a.
24 And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.
Lè n'ap achte yon tè nan peyi nou an, se pou nou rekonèt dwa ansyen mèt tè a genyen pou l' reachte tè a ankò.
25 If thy brother grow poor, and sell of his possession, then shall his redeemer, his nearest relation, come and redeem that which his brother sold.
Lè yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou vin nan nesesite, epi li blije vann pòsyon tè ki pou li a, fanmi ki pi pre l' la va reachte tè li te vann lan, paske se li ki gen dwa fè sa.
26 And if the man have no one having right of redemption, and his hand have acquired and found what sufficeth for its redemption,
Men, si yon nonm pa gen fanmi pre pou reachte tè a, epi apre kèk tan zafè l' vin bon ankò, l'a reachte tè a lè l'a gen kont lajan pou sa.
27 then shall he reckon the years since the sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; and so return unto his possession.
L'a kalkile depi ki tan li te vann tè a, epi l'a renmèt moun ki te achte tè a nan men l' lan lajan ki koresponn ak kantite lanne ki rete anvan lanne rejwisans k'ap vini an, epi l'a reprann tè li.
28 And if his hand have not found what sufficeth for him to restore it to him, then that which is sold shall remain in the hand of the purchaser, until the year of jubilee; and in the jubilee it shall go out, and he shall return unto his possession.
Men, si li pa gen kont kòb pou reachte tè a, tè a va rete nan men moun ki te achte l' la jouk lanne rejwisans k'ap vini an. Lè sa a, tè a va tounen nan men ansyen mèt li ankò.
29 And if any one sell a dwelling-house in a walled city, then he shall have the right of redemption up to the end of the year of the sale thereof; for a full year shall he have the right of redemption.
Si yon nonm vann yon kay ki nan yon bouk ki gen ranpa, li gen yon lanne delè, depi dat li te vann kay la, pou l' reachte l' ankò. Pase yon lanne, li pèdi dwa a.
30 But if it be not redeemed until a whole year is complete, then the house that is in the walled city shall be established for ever to him that bought it, throughout his generations: it shall not go out in the jubilee.
Si li kite tout lanne a pase san li pa reachte kay la, kay la ap rete pou moun ki te achte l' la ak pou pitit pitit li yo. Yo p'ap renmèt li kay la lè lanne rejwisans la rive.
31 But the houses in villages that have no wall round about them shall be reckoned as the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubilee.
Men, kay ki nan bouk kote ki pa gen ranpa, y'ap konsidere yo menm jan ak yon jaden. Ansyen mèt la gen dwa reachte l' ankò. Men, tout jan se pou yo renmèt li kay la, lè lanne rejwisans lan rive.
32 But as to the cities of the Levites, the houses in the cities of their possession, the Levites shall have a perpetual right of redemption.
Moun Levi yo menm ap gen lavil pa yo apa. Yon moun Levi ap toujou gen dwa reachte kay ki te pou li nenpòt kilè.
33 And if any one redeem from one of the Levites, then the house that was sold, in the city of his possession, shall go out in the jubilee; for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.
Si yon moun Levi rive vann yon kay ki nan lavil moun Levi yo, epi li pa reachte l', se pou yo renmèt li kay la lè lanne rejwisans lan rive, paske lè yon moun Levi gen yon kay nan mitan pèp la, kay la pou li nèt.
34 And the field of the suburbs of their cities shall not be sold; for it is their perpetual possession.
Konsa tou, pou jaden ki tout arebò lavil moun Levi yo, yo pa gen dwa vann li, paske se pou yo li ye pou tout tan.
35 And if thy brother grow poor, and he be fallen into decay beside thee, then thou shalt relieve him, [be he] stranger or sojourner, that he may live beside thee.
Si yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou k'ap viv toupre lakay nou vin nan nesesite, epi li tonbe nan malsite, se pou nou lonje men ba li tankou nou ta dwe fè l' pou yon moun lòt nasyon k'ap travay lakay nou osinon ki vin fè ladesant lakay nou. Konsa, l'a toujou ka viv bò kote nou.
36 Thou shalt take no usury nor increase of him; and thou shalt fear thy God; that thy brother may live beside thee.
Pa fè l' peye ankenn enterè, pa ba l' ponya. Gen krentif pou Bondye. Bay moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou an yon chans pou l' viv tou.
37 Thy money shalt thou not give him upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals for increase.
Piga nou mande l' enterè sou lajan nou prete l'. Piga nou ba l' ponya pou manje nou vann li.
38 I am Jehovah your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, to be your God.
Se mwen menm Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Se mwen menm ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip pou m' te ka ban nou peyi Kanaran an epitou pou m' te ka Bondye nou.
39 And if thy brother grow poor beside thee, and be sold unto thee, thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:
Si yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou k'ap viv toupre lakay nou vin nan nesesite, epi li vann tèt li ban nou pou li sèvi nou esklav, piga nou fè l' fè travay yon domestik.
40 as a hired servant, as a sojourner, shall he be with thee; until the year of jubilee shall he serve thee.
L'ap rete lakay nou tankou moun lòt nasyon yo k'ap travay pou lajan lakay nou. L'a sèvi nou jouk lanne rejwisans k'ap vini an.
41 Then shall he depart from thee, he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.
Lè sa a, li menm ak tout pitit li yo, y'a kite lakay nou, y'a tounen al jwenn fanmi yo, epi y'a renmèt yo tè zansèt yo te kite pou yo a.
42 For they are my bondmen, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as [men] sell bondmen.
Paske se esklav mwen nou ye, se mwen menm ki te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip. Yo pa gen dwa vann nou pou fè nou sèvi esklav lòt moun.
43 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; and thou shalt fear thy God.
Piga nou aji mal ak moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou yo. Se pou nou gen krentif pou Bondye nou an.
44 And as for thy bondman and thy handmaid whom thou shalt have — of the nations that are round about you, of them shall ye buy bondmen and handmaids.
Lè n'a bezwen gason osinon fi pou sèvi esklav lakay nou, nou ka achte yo nan moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv lòt bò fwontyè peyi nou an.
45 Moreover of the children of them that dwell as sojourners with you, of them may ye buy, and of their family that is with you, which they beget in your land, and they shall be your possession.
Nou ka achte pitit moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou tou. Konsa tou, lè yo rete lakay nou, si yo fè pitit sou tè ki pou nou, pitit yo va pou nou tou.
46 And ye shall leave them as an inheritance to your children after you, to inherit them as a possession: these may ye make your bondmen for ever; but as for your brethren, the children of Israel, ye shall not rule over one another with rigour.
N'a kite yo tankou byen pou pitit nou yo. Y'a sèvi yo jouk yo mouri. Nou pa dwe maltrete moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou. Men, se pou nou aji avèk yo tankou frè ak frè.
47 And if a stranger or sojourner become wealthy beside thee, and thy brother beside him grow poor, and sell himself unto the stranger, who is settled by thee, or to a scion of the stranger's family,
Sipoze yon moun lòt nasyon k'ap viv nan mitan nou nan peyi a vin gen anpil mwayen epi yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou k'ap viv lakay nou, osinon pre kay moun lòt nasyon an, vin nan nesesite epi l al vann tèt li bay moun lòt nasyon an, osinon bay yonn nan fanmi moun lòt nasyon an pou li sèvi l' esklav.
48 after that he is sold there shall be right of redemption for him; one of his brethren may redeem him.
Apre li vann tèt li a, l'a toujou gen avantaj moun ka reachte l' pou ba li libète l'. Se bagay yonn nan frè li yo,
49 Either his uncle or his uncle's son may redeem him, or one of his next relations of his family may redeem him; or if his means be sufficient, he may redeem himself.
osinon tonton l', osinon pitit gason tonton l' yo, osinon yonn nan fanmi pre li yo ka fè pou li. Si li menm li vin gen mwayen, li ka reachte tèt li tou.
50 And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he was sold to him unto the year of jubilee; and the price of his sale shall be according to the number of the years, according to the days of a hired servant shall he be with him.
Dakò ak moun ki te achte l' la, se pou l' konte konbe lanne ki gen depi lanne li te vann tèt li bay moun lan jouk lanne rejwisans k'ap vini an. Lè sa a, l'a kalkile lajan pou l' bay la sou kantite lanne l'a jwenn lan, epi sou pri yo peye lè konsa pou yon moun k'ap travay pou lajan lakay moun.
51 If there are yet many years, according unto them shall he return his redemption [money] out of the money that he was bought for;
Lè gen anpil lanne ki rete, l'a kalkile sou yo pou l' konnen valè lajan pou l' renmèt pou l' ka reachte tèt li.
52 and if there remain but few years unto the year of jubilee, then he shall reckon with him; according unto his [remaining] years [of service] shall he give him back his redemption [money].
Men, si pa gen lanne ki rete anvan lanne rejwisans lan, y'a kalkile ansanm, epi l'a renmèt li lajan dapre kantite lanne ki rete a pou l' ka reachte tèt li.
53 As a hired servant shall he be with him year by year; [his master] shall not rule with rigour over him before thine eyes.
Paske l'ap travay ak moun lan tankou domestik k'ap travay pou lajan pa an, ou pa fèt pou kite moun lan maltrete li.
54 And if he be not redeemed in this manner, then he shall go out in the year of jubilee, he and his children with him.
Si li pa reachte tèt li konsa, lè lanne rejwisans lan rive, ni li menm, ni pitit gason l' yo va lib ankò. Epi y'a kite kay moun lan.
55 For the children of Israel are servants unto me; they are my servants whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: I am Jehovah your God.
Se pou nou swiv regleman sa yo, paske se esklav pa m' moun pèp Izrayèl yo ye. Yo se esklav mwen te fè soti kite peyi Lejip. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a, Bondye nou an.
