Leviticus 25
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses in mount Sinai, saying:
Sinai mon dawk, BAWIPA ni Mosi koe, nang ni Isarel miphunnaw koe patuen bout na dei pouh hane teh,
2 Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: When you shall have entered into the land which I will give you, observe the rest of the sabbath to the Lord.
Kai ni na poe e ram dawk na pha awh toteh, Hote ram ni BAWIPA hanlah sabbath ayâ han.
3 Six years thou shalt sow thy field and six years thou shalt prune thy vineyard, and shalt gather the fruits thereof:
Kum taruk touh thung law hoi misur takha na sak awh vaiteh, apawhik na pâkhueng awh han.
4 But in the seventh year there shall be a sabbath to the land, of the resting of the Lord: thou shalt not sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard.
Kum sarinae kum teh BAWIPA hanlah sabbath kum, ram thung kaawm e pueng kâhat vaiteh, sabbath yanae kum lah ao. Law na sak mahoeh. Misur takha hai na rasoun mahoeh.
5 What the ground shall bring forth of itself, thou shalt not reap: neither shalt thou gather the grapes of the firstfruits as a vintage: for it is a year of rest to the land:
Law dawk ama pouk kapâw e apawhik hai na khi mahoeh. Na rasoun hoeh e misur hai na khi mahoeh. Ram pueng kâhatnae kum lah ao.
6 But they shall be unto you for meat, to thee and to thy manservant, to thy maidservant and thy hireling, and to the strangers that sojourn with thee:
Ram thung sabbath kum nah ka tâcawt e apawhik pueng teh namamouh, napui hoi tongpa, na thaw ka tawk e hoi, nang koe kaawm e imyinnaw hoi,
7 All things that grow shall be meat to thy beasts and to thy cattle.
ram thung kaawm e saring pueng ni ca hane kawi lah ao han.
8 Thou shalt also number to thee seven weeks of years, that is to say, seven times seven, which together make forty-nine years:
Sabbath kum, kum sari touh na parei vaiteh, kum sari vai sari touh tie kum 49 akuep hnukkhu,
9 And thou shalt sound the trumpet in the seventh month, the tenth day of the month, in the time of the expiation in all your land.
Tha sari, hnin 10, yonthanae hnin dawk mongka hah ram pueng dawk ueng sak han.
10 And thou shalt sanctify the fiftieth year, and shalt proclaim remission to all the inhabitants of thy land: for it is the year of jubilee. Every man shall return to his possession, and every one shall go back to his former family:
Aruipanganae kum hah thoung sak vaiteh, ram pueng dawk khoca pueng koe hloutnae pathang han. Jubili kum lah ao dawkvah tami pueng amae talai, amae phun koe a ban han.
11 Because it is the jubilee and the fiftieth year. You shall not sow, nor reap the things that grow in the field of their own accord, neither shall you gather the firstfruits of the vines,
Hote aruipanganae kum teh Jubili kum lah ao dawkvah law na sak mahoeh. ama pouk kapâw e hai na a mahoeh. Rasoun hoeh e misur takha dawk e a paw hai na khi awh mahoeh.
12 Because of the sanctification of the jubilee: but as they grow you shall presently eat them.
Jubili kum teh kathounge kum lah ao dawkvah law dawk e apawhik dueng ca han.
13 In the year of the jubilee all shall return to their possessions.
Jubili kum nateh tami pueng ni amae khoram lah a ban awh han.
14 When thou shalt sell any thing to thy neighbour, or shalt buy of him; grieve not thy brother: but thou shalt buy of him according to the number of years from the jubilee.
Nangmouh ni buet touh hoi buet touh yorannae na sak pawiteh buet touh hoi buet touh kâyue awh hanh.
15 And he shall sell to thee according to the computation of the fruits.
Jubili kum aloum teh a ngai rae kumnaw apawhik a paw nahan a kum parei vaiteh yorannae na sak han.
16 The more years remain after the jubilee, the more shall the price increase: and the less time is counted, so much the less shall the purchase cost. For he shall sell to thee the time of the fruits.
Hottelah, a paw paw na kum parei hoi yo e lah ao dawkvah, kum ayoun apap e patetlah aphu payoun, paluen lahoi yoran han.
17 Do not afflict your countrymen, but let every one fear his God: because I am the Lord your God.
Nangmouh teh buet touh hoi buet touh kâyue awh hanh. Na Cathut taket awh. Kai teh nangmae BAWIPA Cathut lah ka o.
18 Do my precepts, and keep my judgments, and fulfill them: that you may dwell in the land without any fear,
Nangmouh ni ka phunglam hah na tarawi pawiteh hote ram dawk lungmawng lahoi kho na sak awh han.
19 And the ground may yield you its fruits, of which you may eat your fill, fearing no mall’s invasion.
Talai ni hai apawhik a tâco sak vaiteh, kaboumlah na ca awh vaiteh, lungmawng lah kho na sak awh han.
20 But if you say: What shall we eat the seventh year, if we sow not, nor gather our fruits?
Nangmouh ni hai asari kum nah, kaimouh ni bangtelamaw ka ca awh han. Law ka sak awh hoeh. Apawhik hai ka pâkhueng awh hoeh na tet awh pawiteh,
21 I will give you my blessing the sixth year, and it shall yield the fruits of three years:
A kum taruk nah, nangmouh yawhawinae na poe vaiteh, hote kum dawk kum thum touh hane apawhik ka tâco sak han.
22 And the eighth year you shall sow, and shall eat of the old fruits, until the ninth year: till new grow up, you shall eat the old store.
nangmouh ni a kum taroe nah law na sak teh a kum tako nah apawhik pâkhuengnae totouh a karuem e apawhik na ca awh han.
23 The land also shall not be sold for ever: because it is mine, and you are strangers and sojourners with me.
Talai hah ayâ pou tawn sak hanelah, yawt hanh. Talai teh Kaie doeh. Nangmouh teh Kai koe kârayen e imyin lah na o awh.
24 For which cause all the country of your possession shall be under the condition of redemption.
Nangmouh ni talai na tawn a e hmuen pueng bout ratangnae kâ na poe awh han.
25 If thy brother being impoverished sell his little possession, and his kinsman will, he may redeem what he had sold.
Na hmaunawnghanaw ni roedeng boilah a tawn e talai yawt pawiteh, kahnai e hmaunawngha ni a yo e talai hah bout ratangnae kâ ao han.
26 But if he have no kinsman, and he himself can find the price to redeem it:
Hote talai hah ka ratang hane buet touh hai awm hoehpawiteh, ka tawn karuem ni ama ni bout ratang thai pawiteh,
27 The value of the fruits shall be counted from that time when he sold it: and the overplus he shall restore to the buyer, and so shall receive his possession again.
A yonae kum hah a touk vaiteh, aphu yit touh bout poe naseh. Hote talai teh bout a coe han.
28 But if his hands find not the means to repay the price, the buyer shall have what he bought, until the year of the jubilee. For in that year all that is sold shall return to the owner, and to the ancient possessor.
Bout poe thai hoehpawiteh, a yo e hno hah Jubili kum totouh ka ran e kut dawk ao sak han. Jubili kum nah tha pawiteh, hmaloe e katawnkung e kut dawk bout a pha han.
29 He that selleth a house within the walls of a city, shall have the liberty to redeem it, until one year be expired:
Khopui dawk e im hah imkung ni yawt pawiteh, kum touh thung ratang thainae kâ ao sak han.
30 If he redeem it not, and the whole year be fully out, the buyer shall possess it, and his posterity for ever, and it cannot be redeemed, not even in the jubilee.
Kum touh thung ratang thai hoehpawiteh, hote im ka ran e catounnaw ni pou a tawn han. Jubili kum ka phat nakunghai tha pouh mahoeh toe.
31 But if the house be in a village, that hath no walls, it shall be sold according to the same law as the fields: if it be not redeemed before, in the jubilee it shall return to the owner.
Rapan ka tawn hoeh e kho dawk kaawm e im hah law patetlah a pouk vaiteh, ratang thainae kâ ao. Jubili kum pha toteh a tha pouh han.
32 The houses of Levites, which are in cities, may always be redeemed:
Hat navah, Levihnaw ni a tawn e khopui hoi khopui dawk e imnaw teh nâtuek hai thoseh, ratang thainae kâ ao.
33 If they be not redeemed, in the jubilee they shall all return to the owners, because the houses of the cities of the Levites are for their possessions among the children of Israel.
Levih ni a tawn e im hoi kho thoseh, ayâ ni ran pawiteh, Jubili kum a pha toteh a tha han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarel miphun dawk Levihnaw teh ama onae kho hoi im hloilah alouke hno tawn hoeh.
34 But let not their suburbs be sold, because it is a perpetual possession.
Hateiteh, Levih kho dawk kaawm e imlawnaw yawt mahoeh. Pou a tawn awh han.
35 If thy brother be impoverished, and weak of hand, and thou receive him as a stranger and sojourner, and he live with thee,
Nange na hmaunawngha ni a roedeng lawi, imyin patetlah tho pawiteh, nang koe o sak hanlah na kabawp han.
36 Take not usury of him nor more than thou gavest: fear thy God, that thy brother may live with thee.
Ahni koe apung na cat mahoeh. Na hmaunawngha hah, nang koe o sak hanelah, na Cathut taket loe.
37 Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor exact of him any increase of fruits.
Apung ngaihawi lahoi ahni koe tangka thoseh, canei thoseh na cawi mahoeh.
38 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that I might give you the land of Chanaan, and might be your God.
Kai ni Kanaan ram na poe awh teh, nangmae Cathut lah ka o nahanlah nangmouh Izip ram hoi na ka tâcawtkhai e nangmae BAWIPA Cathut doeh.
39 If thy brother constrained by poverty, sell himself to thee, thou shalt not oppress him with the service of bondservants:
Na hmaunawngha ni a roedeng dawkvah nang koe kâyawt pawiteh, san patetlah na hno mahoeh.
40 But he shall be as a hireling, and a sojourner: he shall work with thee until the year of the jubilee,
Ahni teh hlai e patetlah thoseh, imyin patetlah thoseh, nang koe ao vaiteh, Jubili kum totouh na thaw a tawk han.
41 And afterwards he shall go out with his children, and shall return to his kindred and to the possession of his fathers,
Hat navah, ahni teh a canaw hoi a tâco vaiteh amae a hmaunawngha, a mintoenaw e talai koe lah bout a ban han.
42 For they are my servants, and I brought them out of the land of Egypt: let them not be sold as bondmen:
Bangkongtetpawiteh, ahnimouh teh Izip ram hoi ka tâcokhai e ka thaw ka tawk e lah ao dawkvah san lah o hanelah na yawt mahoeh.
43 Afflict him not by might, but fear thy God.
Ahni teh puenghoi na rektap mahoeh. Na Cathut hah taket.
44 Let your bondmen, and your bondwomen, be of the nations that are round about you.
Nang ni na tawn hane sannu sanpa teh na tengpam kaawm e Jentelnaw koe na ran han.
45 And of the strangers that sojourn among you, or that were born of them in your land, these you shall have for servants:
Hothloilah, nangmouh koe kho ka sak e alouk ram e taminaw thoseh, na ram dawk a khe e a canaw thoseh, na ran vaiteh na tawn han.
46 And by right of inheritance shall leave them to your posterity, and shall possess them for ever. But oppress not your brethren the children of Israel by might.
Ahnimanaw teh san dawk hoi ka khe e lah ao teh, nang hoi na canaw ni râw lah na tawn han. Na hmaunawngha, Isarel miphun dawk e tho pawiteh, buet touh hoi buet touh puenghoi na rektap mahoeh.
47 If the hand of a stranger or a sojourner grow strong among you, and thy brother being impoverished sell himself to him, or to any of his race:
Nangmouh koe kho ka sak e alouke tami ni a tawnta ei teh, ahnie teng kho ka sak e na hmaunawngha a roedeng teh, nang koe kho ka sak e alouke ram e taminaw koe thoseh, a ca catounnaw koehai thoseh, kâyawt awh pawiteh,
48 After the sale he may be redeemed. He that will of his brethren shall redeem him:
Yo hnukkhu, bout ratang thainae kâ ao han. A hmaunawngha lah kaawm e buetbuet touh ni a ratang han.
49 Either his uncle, or his uncle’s son, or his kinsman, by blood, or by affinity. But if he himself be able also, he shall redeem himself,
A na hma, a panga, a hmaunawngha koehoi rei ka tâcawt e imthung buetbuet touh ni a ratang han. Ama ni ratang thai pawiteh a ratang han.
50 Counting only the years from the time of his selling unto the year of the jubilee: and counting the money that he was sold for, according to the number of the years and the reckoning of a hired servant,
Bawi hoi sannaw teh yorannae kum dawk hoi kamtawng vaiteh, Jubili kum totouh kum a parei hnukkhu, a kum ayoun apap e patetlah thoseh, a hlainae tueng khet lahoi thoseh, aphu teh to han.
51 If there be many years that remain until the jubilee, according to them shall he also repay the price.
Jubili kum a pha hoehnahlan a thawtawknae kum ayoun apap e parei vaiteh,
52 If few, he shall make the reckoning with him according to the number of the years, and shall repay to the buyer of what remaineth of the years,
A ngai rae a kumtha ayoun apap e patetlah ratang nahane aphu hah rannae phu dawk hoi rayu vaiteh bout a pâban han.
53 His wages being allowed for which he served before: he shall not afflict him violently in thy sight.
Ahni teh kum touh hnukkhu, kum touh hlai e patetlah ao han. Na hmaitung vah rektap lah awm hanh naseh.
54 And if by these means he cannot be redeemed, in the year of the jubilee he shall go out with his children.
Hottelah hoi ratang thai hoehpawiteh, Jubili kum a pha toteh, ahni teh a canaw hoi bawi e kut dawk hoi a hlout han.
55 For the children of Israel are my servants, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarelnaw teh ka thaw ka tawk e lah ao awh. Izip ram hoi ka tâcokhai e ka thaw ka tawk e lah ao awh. Kai teh nangmae BAWIPA Cathut doeh.
