Leviticus 25
1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses in mount Sinai, saying,
Nake Jehova akĩĩra Musa Kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩa Sinai atĩrĩ,
2 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, When ye shall come into the lande which I giue you, the lande shall keepe Sabbath vnto the Lord.
“Arĩria andũ a Isiraeli, ũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũgaatoonya bũrũri ũrĩa ngaamũhe-rĩ, bũrũri ũcio guo mwene no nginya ũkaagĩaga na Thabatũ ĩrĩa yamũrĩirwo Jehova.
3 Sixe yeeres thou shalt sowe thy field, and sixe yeeres thou shalt cut thy vineyarde, and gather the fruite thereof.
Mũkaahaandaga mĩgũnda yanyu mĩaka ĩtandatũ, na mũcehage mĩgũnda yanyu ya thabibũ mũkamĩcehaga mĩaka ĩtandatũ mũgĩcookanagĩrĩria maciaro mayo.
4 But the seuenth yeere shalbe a Sabbath of rest vnto the lande: it shall be the Lordes Sabbath: thou shalt neither sowe thy fielde, nor cut thy vineyarde.
No mwaka wa mũgwanja wakinya, bũrũri ũcio nĩũkagĩa na Thabatũ ya kũhurũka, Thabatũ yamũrĩirwo Jehova; mũtikanahaande kĩndũ mĩgũnda kana mũcehe mĩthabibũ yanyu.
5 That which groweth of it owne accorde of thy haruest, thou shalt not reape, neither gather the grapes that thou hast left vnlaboured: for it shalbe a yeere of rest vnto the land.

6 And the rest of the lande shall be meate for you, euen for thee, and for thy seruant, and for thy mayde, and for thy hired seruant, and for the stranger that soiourneth with thee:
Kĩrĩa gĩothe bũrũri ũcio ũgaaciara mwaka-inĩ ũcio wa Thabatũ gĩgaatuĩka irio cianyu, inyuĩ ene na cia ndungata cianyu cia arũme na cia andũ-a-nja, na cia aruti anyu a wĩra wa mũcaara, na mũraarĩrĩri ũrĩa mũikaranĩtie nake,
7 And for thy cattell, and for the beastes that are in thy lande shall all the encrease thereof be meate.

8 Also thou shalt number seuen Sabbaths of yeeres vnto thee, euen seuen times seuen yeere: and the space of the seuen Sabbaths of yeeres will be vnto thee nine and fourtie yeere.
“‘Tarai Thabatũ mũgwanja cia mĩaka, mĩaka mũgwanja maita mũgwanja, nĩguo Thabatũ icio mũgwanja cia mĩaka ihinge mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna na kenda.
9 Then thou shalt cause to blow the trumpet of the Iubile in the tenth day of the seuenth moneth: euen in the day of the reconciliation shall ye make the trumpet blowe, throughout all your lande.
Ningĩ mũcooke mũhuhe karumbeta kũndũ guothe mũthenya wa ikũmi wa mweri wa mũgwanja; Mũthenya wa Kũhoroherio Mehia, mũkaahuha karumbeta kũndũ guothe bũrũri-inĩ wanyu.
10 And ye shall halowe that yeere, euen the fiftieth yeere, and proclaime libertie in the lande to all the inhabitants thereof: it shalbe the Iubile vnto you, and ye shall returne euery man vnto his possession, and euery man shall returne vnto his familie.

11 This fiftieth yeere shalbe a yeere of Iubile vnto you: ye shall not sowe, neither reape that which groweth of it selfe, neither gather the grapes thereof, that are left vnlaboured.

12 For it is the Iubile, it shall be holy vnto you: ye shall eate of the encrease thereof out of the fielde.
Nĩgũkorwo ĩyo nĩ Jubilii, na nĩyo ĩgaatuĩka theru kũrĩ inyuĩ; rĩĩagai o kĩrĩa gĩĩkũrĩtie mĩgũnda-inĩ.

“‘Mwaka-inĩ ũyũ wa Jubilii, o mũndũ no nginya acooke gĩthaka-inĩ gĩake.
14 And when thou sellest ought to thy neighbour, or byest at thy neighbours hande, ye shall not oppresse one another:
“‘Mũngĩkenderia mũndũ wa bũrũri wanyu mũgũnda kana mũgũre mũgũnda kũrĩ we, mũtikanaheenanie mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ.
15 But according to the nomber of yeeres after the Iubile thou shalt bye of thy neighbour: also according to the nomber of the yeeres of the reuenues, he shall sell vnto thee.

16 According to the multitude of yeeres, thou shalt increase the price thereof, and according to the fewnesse of yeeres, thou shalt abate the price of it: for the nomber of fruites doeth he sell vnto thee.

18 Wherefore ye shall obey mine ordinances, and keepe my lawes, and do them, and ye shall dwell in the land in safetie.
“‘Rũmagĩrĩrai kĩrĩra kĩa watho wakwa na mwĩmenyagĩrĩre nĩguo mwathĩkagĩre mawatho makwa, na inyuĩ nĩ mũgaatũũra bũrũri ũcio mũrĩ na thayũ.

20 And if ye shall say, What shall we eate the seuenth yeere, for we shall not sowe, nor gather in our increase?

23 Also the lande shall not be solde to be cut off from the familie: for the land is mine, and ye be but strangers and soiourners with me.
“‘Mĩgũnda ndĩkanendio biũ, tondũ bũrũri nĩ wakwa na inyuĩ mũrĩ o ageni kuo, na nĩ niĩ ndĩmũkomborithĩtie.
24 Therefore in all the land of your possession ye shall graunt a redemption for the lande.

25 If thy brother be impouerished, and sell his possession, then his redeemer shall come, euen his neere kinsman, and bye out that which his brother solde.
“‘Mũndũ wa bũrũri wanyu angĩthĩĩna na endie gĩcunjĩ kĩa mũgũnda wake, mũndũ ũrĩa wa hakuhĩ mũno wa nyũmba yake nĩagooka na akũũre mũgũnda ũcio mũndũ wao eendetie.

28 But if he can not get sufficient to restore to him, then that which is solde, shall remaine in the hande of him that hath bought it, vntill the yere of the Iubile: and in the Iubile it shall come out, and he shall returne vnto his possession.
No angĩaga kũgĩa na indo cia kũmũrĩha-rĩ, gĩcunjĩ kĩrĩa eendirie gĩgũtũũra kĩrĩ kĩa mũgũri nginya Mwaka wa Jubilii. Gĩgaacookio hĩndĩ ya Jubilii, na hĩndĩ ĩyo no acooke gĩthaka-inĩ gĩake.
29 Likewise if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled citie, he may bye it out againe within a whole yeere after it is solde: within a yeere may he bye it out.
“‘Mũndũ angĩkeendia nyũmba ĩrĩ itũũra-inĩ inene rĩirigĩre, nĩarĩkoragwo arĩ na kĩhooto gĩa kũmĩkũũra ihinda rĩa mwaka mũgima kuuma amĩendia. Thĩinĩ wa ihinda rĩu no amĩkũũre.
30 But if it be not bought out within ye space of a ful yeere, then the house that is in the walled citie, shalbe stablished, as cut off from the familie, to him that bought it, throughout his generations: it shall not goe out in the Iubile.

31 But the houses of villages, which haue no walles round about them, shalbe esteemed as the fielde of the countrey: they may be bought out againe, and shall goe out in the Iubile.

32 Notwithstanding, the cities of the Leuites, and the houses of the cities of their possession, may the Leuites redeeme at all seasons.
“‘Alawii hĩndĩ ciothe nĩ marĩ na kĩhooto gĩa gũkũũraga nyũmba ciao iria irĩ matũũra-inĩ ma Alawii, marĩa megwatĩire.
33 And if a man purchase of the Leuites, the house that was solde, and the citie of their possession shall goe out in the Iubile: for the houses of the cities of the Leuites are their possession among the children of Israel.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio indo cia Alawii no ikũũrwo, ũguo nĩ ta kuuga atĩ, nyũmba nyendie itũũra-inĩ o rĩothe rĩao, nĩĩgacookio Mwaka wa Jubilii, tondũ nyũmba iria irĩ matũũra-inĩ ma Alawii nĩcio igai rĩao thĩinĩ wa andũ a Isiraeli.
34 But the fielde of the suburbes of their cities, shall not be solde: for it is their perpetuall possession.
No ithaka cia ũrĩithio cia matũũra mao itikanendio; icio nĩ ciao nginya tene.
35 Moreouer, if thy brother be impouerished, and fallen in decay with thee, thou shalt relieue him, and as a stranger and soiourner, so shall he liue with thee.
“‘Mũndũ wa bũrũri wanyu angĩthĩĩna nginya aremwo nĩ kwĩrũgamĩrĩra gatagatĩ kanyu, mũteithagiei o ta ũrĩa mũngĩteithia mũgeni kana mũndũ ũrarĩrĩire kwanyu, nĩgeetha ahote gũtũũrania na inyuĩ.

39 If thy brother also that dwelleth by thee, be impouerished, and be sold vnto thee, thou shalt not compel him to serue as a bond seruant,
“‘Mũndũ wa bũrũri wanyu angĩthĩĩna arĩ gatagatĩ kanyu, nake eyendie harĩ inyuĩ, mũtikanamũrutithie wĩra ta ngombo.

41 Then shall he depart from thee, both hee, and his children with him, and shall returne vnto his familie, and vnto the possession of his fathers shall he returne:
