Leviticus 25

1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying:

Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese ʻi he moʻunga ko Sainai, ʻo pehē,

2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: When ye come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto the LORD.

Lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, mo ke pehē kiate kinautolu, ʻOka mou ka hoko atu ki he fonua ʻaia ʻoku ou foaki kiate kimoutolu, ʻe toki fai ai ʻe he fonua ʻae Sāpate kia Sihova.

3 Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years thou shalt prune thy vineyard, and gather in the produce thereof.

Ko e taʻu ʻe ono ke ke tō ai hoʻo ngoue, mo e taʻu ʻe ono ke ke ʻauhani hoʻo ngoue vaine, ʻo tānaki hono fua;

4 But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of solemn rest for the land, a sabbath unto the LORD; thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard.

Ka ko hono fitu ʻoe taʻu ko e Sāpate ia ke mālōlō ai ʻae fonua, ko e Sāpate ia kia Sihova: ʻoua naʻa ke tō ai hoʻo ngoue, pe ʻauhani hoʻo ngoue vaine.

5 That which groweth of itself of thy harvest thou shalt not reap, and the grapes of thy undressed vine thou shalt not gather; it shall be a year of solemn rest for the land.

Ko ia ʻoku tupu ʻiate ia pe ʻi he ngaahi fua ʻo hoʻo taʻu ʻoua naʻa ke tuʻusi, pe toli ʻae ngaahi kālepi ʻoe vaine taʻeʻauhani he ko e taʻu mālōlō ia ki ho fonua.

6 And the sabbath-produce of the land shall be for food for you: for thee, and for thy servant and for thy maid, and for thy hired servant and for the settler by thy side that sojourn with thee;

Pea ko e Sāpate ʻoe fonua ko e meʻakai ia maʻamoutolu; kiate koe, pea ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, pea ki hoʻo kaunanga, pea ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki unga ngāue, pea ki he muli ʻoku ʻāunofo kiate koe,

7 and for thy cattle, and for the beasts that are in thy land, shall all the increase thereof be for food.

Pea ki hoʻo fanga manu lahi, pea ki hoʻo fanga manu ʻi ho fonua kotoa pē, ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku tupu ko e meʻakai ia kiate kinautolu.

8 And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times seven years; and there shall be unto thee the days of seven sabbaths of years, even forty and nine years.

Pea ke lau kiate koe ʻae Sāpate ʻe fitu ʻoe ngaahi taʻu; ko e taʻu ʻe fitu lau ʻe fitu; pea ko hono lau ʻoe Sāpate ʻe fitu ʻoe ngaahi taʻu ko e taʻu ʻe fāngofulu ma hiva.

9 Then shalt thou make proclamation with the blast of the horn on the tenth day of the seventh month; in the day of atonement shall ye make proclamation with the horn throughout all your land.

Pea te ke toki fekau ke ifi ʻae meʻa lea ʻoe siupeli ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe [ʻaho ]ʻi hono fitu ʻoe māhina, ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe fakalelei ke mou fakaongo atu ʻae meʻa lea ʻi homou fonua kotoa pē.

10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout the land unto all the inhabitants thereof; it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.

Pea ke mou fakatapui hono nimangofulu ʻoe taʻu, ʻo fakahā ʻae huhuʻi ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ki hono kakai kotoa pē; ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ia ko e siupeli: pea ʻe toe hoko ʻae tangata taki taha kotoa pē ki hono ʻapi, pea ʻe toe haʻu taki taha ʻae tangata ki hono fale.

11 A jubilee shall that fiftieth year be unto you; ye shall not sow, neither reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of the undressed vines.

Ko e nimangofulu taʻu ko ia ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ia ko e siupeli: ʻoua naʻa mou tūtuuʻi, pe tuʻusi ʻaia ʻoku tupu ʻiate ia pe, pe tānaki mei he vaine ʻoku taʻeʻauhani.

12 For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy unto you; ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.

He ko e siupeli ia; ʻe māʻoniʻoni ia kiate kimoutolu: te mou kai ʻa hono fua ʻo ia mei he ngoue pe.

13 In this year of jubilee ye shall return every man unto his possession.

Pea ʻi he taʻu ʻoe siupeli ni ʻe toe haʻu ʻae tangata taki taha kotoa pē ki hono tofiʻa,

14 And if thou sell aught unto thy neighbour, or buy of thy neighbour's hand, ye shall not wrong one another.

Pea kapau ʻoku ke fakatau ha meʻa ki ho kaungāʻapi, pe fakatau ha meʻa meiate ia, ʻoua naʻa mou fefakamamahiʻaki ʻakimoutolu:

15 According to the number of years after the jubilee thou shalt buy of thy neighbour, and according unto the number of years of the crops he shall sell unto thee.

Ke ke fakatau mei ho kaungāʻapi ʻo fakatatau ki hono lau ʻoe taʻu ʻi he hili ʻae siupeli, pea te ne fakatau kiate koe ʻo fakatatau ki hono lau ʻoe taʻu ʻo hono ngaahi fua:

16 According to the multitude of the years thou shalt increase the price thereof, and according to the fewness of the years thou shalt diminish the price of it; for the number of crops doth he sell unto thee.

Te ke fakalahi ʻa hono totongi ʻo fakatatau mo hono lahi ʻoe taʻu, pea ke fakasiʻisiʻi hono totongi ʻo fakatatau ki hono siʻi ʻoe taʻu: he ʻoku ne fakatau ia kiate koe ʻo fakatatau ki hono lau ʻoe taʻu ʻo hono fua ʻo ia.

17 And ye shall not wrong one another; but thou shalt fear thy God; for I am the LORD your God.

Ko ia ʻoua naʻa mou fefakamamahiʻaki ʻakimoutolu; ka ke manavahē ki ho ʻOtua; he ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.

18 Wherefore ye shall do My statutes, and keep Mine ordinances and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.

Ko ia ke mou fai ʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea tauhi ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, ʻo fai ki ai; pea te mou nofo malu pe ʻi he fonua.

19 And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat until ye have enough, and dwell therein in safety.

Pea ʻe tupu ʻi he fonua hono fua, pea te mou kai ʻo mākona, ʻo nofo ʻi ai ʻi he fiemālie.

20 And if ye shall say: 'What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we may not sow, nor gather in our increase';

Pea kapau ʻoku mou pehē, Ko e hā te mau kai ʻi hono fitu ʻoe taʻu? Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te mau tūtuuʻi, pe tānaki ʻemau fua:

21 then I will command My blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth produce for the three years.

Teu toki fekau ʻeku tāpuaki kiate kimoutolu ʻi hono ono ʻoe taʻu, pea ʻe tupu ʻi ai ʻae fua ʻo feʻunga mo e taʻu ʻe tolu.

22 And ye shall sow the eighth year, and eat of the produce, the old store; until the ninth year, until her produce come in, ye shall eat the old store.

Pea te mou tūtuuʻi ʻi hono valu ʻoe taʻu, kae kai ʻae fua motuʻa ʻo aʻu ki hono hiva ʻoe taʻu: te mou kai ʻae meʻakai motuʻa kaeʻoua ke hoko ʻa hono toʻukai.

23 And the land shall not be sold in perpetuity; for the land is Mine; for ye are strangers and settlers with Me.

ʻE ʻikai fakatau ʻae fonua ʻo taʻengata: he ʻoku ʻoʻoku ʻae fonua; he ko e kau muli mo e ʻāunofo ʻakimoutolu kiate au.

24 And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.

Pea ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻoku mou maʻu te mou tuku ke huhuʻi ʻae fonua.

25 If thy brother be waxen poor, and sell some of his possession, then shall his kinsman that is next unto him come, and shall redeem that which his brother hath sold.

Kapau kuo fakaʻaʻau ʻo masiva ʻa ho kāinga, pea kuo ne fakatau ha potu ʻo hono ʻapi, pea kapau ʻe haʻu ha niʻihi ʻi hono kāinga ke huhuʻi ia, ke ne huhuʻi ai ʻaia naʻe fakatau ʻe hono kāinga.

26 And if a man have no one to redeem it, and he be waxen rich and find sufficient means to redeem it;

Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he tangata ha tokotaha ke huhuʻi ia, pea ʻoku faʻa huhuʻi ia ʻe ia pe;

27 then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; and he shall return unto his possession.

Tuku ai ke ne lau ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi taʻu ʻo hono fakatau ʻo ia, pea ʻatu hono toe ʻo ia ki he tangata naʻa ne fakatau ia ki ai; koeʻuhi ke toe haʻu ia ki hono ʻapi.

28 But if he have not sufficient means to get it back for himself, then that which he hath sold shall remain in the hand of him that hath bought it until the year of jubilee; and in the jubilee it shall go out, and he shall return unto his possession.

Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai mafai ʻe ia ke toe ʻomi ia kiate ia, pea ko e meʻa naʻe fakatau ʻe tuku pe ia ʻi he nima ʻo ia naʻa ne fakatau ia ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻoe siupeli: pea ʻi he siupeli ʻe tukuange ia, pea ʻe haʻu ia ki hono ʻapi.

29 And if a man sell a dwelling-house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; for a full year shall he have the right of redemption.

Pea kapau ʻoku fakatau ʻe ha tangata ha fale nofoʻanga ʻi loto kolo ʻoku ai hano ʻā maka, ʻe ngofua ʻa ʻene huhuʻi ia ʻi he ʻikai ʻosi ʻae taʻu kotoa hili hono fakatau: ʻi he taʻu kotoa ʻe ngofua ʻa ʻene huhuʻi ia.

30 And if it be not redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city shall be made sure in perpetuity to him that bought it, throughout his generations; it shall not go out in the jubilee.

Pea kapau ʻe ʻikai huhuʻi ia ʻi he taʻu kātoa, pea ko e fale ko ia ʻoku ʻi he kolo ʻā maka ʻe ʻoʻona ia naʻa ne fakatau ia ʻo taʻengata ʻi hono ngaahi toʻutangata; ʻe ʻikai toe tukuange ia ʻi he siupeli.

31 But the houses of the villages which have no wall round about them shall be reckoned with the fields of the country; they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubilee.

Ka ko e ngaahi fale ʻi he ngaahi potu kakai ʻoku ʻikai hanau ʻā, ʻe lau ia fakataha mo e ngaahi ngoue ʻoe fonua: ʻe ngofua ke huhuʻi ia, pea ʻe tukuange ia ʻi he siupeli.

32 But as for the cities of the Levites, the houses of the cities of their possession, the Levites shall have a perpetual right of redemption.

Ka ko e ngaahi potu nofoʻanga ʻoe kau Livai, mo e ngaahi fale ʻi he ngaahi potu nofoʻanga ʻo honau ʻapi, ʻe ngofua ki he kau Livai, ke huhuʻi ia ʻi he kuonga kotoa pē.

33 And if a man purchase 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.

Pea kapau ʻoku fakatau ʻe ha tangata mei he kau Livai, pea ko e fale naʻe fakatau, mo e potu kakai ʻo hono ʻapi, ʻe tukuange ia ʻi he siupeli: he ko e ngaahi fale ʻoe ngaahi potu kakai ʻoe kau Livai, ko honau ʻapi ia ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.

34 But the fields of the open land about their cities may not be sold; for that is their perpetual possession.

Ka ko e ngoue ʻoku hoko ʻo ofi mo honau ngaahi potu kakai, ʻe ʻikai fakatau ia: he ko honau tofiʻa tuʻumaʻu ia.

35 And if thy brother be waxen poor, and his means fail with thee; then thou shalt uphold him: as a stranger and a settler shall he live with thee.

Pea kapau kuo hoko ʻo masiva ʻa ho kāinga, pea kuo vaivai ia; pea te ke tokoni ia; neongo pe ko e muli ia pe ko ha ʻāunofo kiate koe; koeʻuhi ke ne moʻui ai mo koe.

36 Take thou no interest of him or increase; but fear thy God; that thy brother may live with thee.

‌ʻOua naʻa ke toʻo ha totongi ʻiate ia, pe hano tupu; ka ke manavahē ki he ʻOtua; koeʻuhi ke moʻui ho kāinga mo koe.

37 Thou shalt not give him thy money upon interest, nor give him thy victuals for increase.

‌ʻOua naʻa ke ʻatu hoʻo koloa kiate ia ke maʻu ai ʻae totongi, pe nō hoʻo meʻakai ke maʻu ai hono tupu.

38 I am the LORD your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, to be your God.

Ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, kuo u ʻomi ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ke foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae fonua ko Kēnani, pea ke u hoko ko homou ʻOtua.

39 And if thy brother be waxen poor with thee, and sell himself unto thee, thou shalt not make him to serve as a bondservant.

Pea kapau kuo hoko ʻo masiva ho kāinga ʻoku nofo ofi kiate koe, pea fakatau ʻe ia ia kiate koe: ʻoua naʻa ke fakapōpulaʻi ia ke fai ʻo hangē ha hopoate;

40 As a hired servant, and as a settler, he shall be with thee; he shall serve with thee unto the year of jubilee.

Ka ʻe ʻiate koe ia ʻo hangē ha tamaioʻeiki ʻoku ngāue ki ha totongi, mo e ʻāunofo, pea te ne ʻiate koe ko e tauhi ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻoe siupeli:

41 Then shall he go out 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.

Pea ʻe toki ʻalu ia ʻiate koe, ʻaia mo ʻene fānau mo ia, pea ʻe toe hoko atu ia ki hono kāinga, pea ʻe hoko ki he ʻapi ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai.

42 For they are My servants, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt; they shall not be sold as bondmen.

He ko ʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki ʻakinautolu, ʻaia naʻaku ʻomi mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite: ʻoua naʻa fakatau ʻakinautolu ke fakapōpulaʻi.

43 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt fear thy God.

‌ʻE ʻikai te ke puleʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he mālohi lahi; ka ke manavahē ki ho ʻOtua.

44 And as for thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, whom thou mayest have: of the nations that are round about you, of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids.

Ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki mo hoʻo kau kaunanga ʻaia te ke maʻu, ʻe maʻu ia mei he kakai taʻelotu ʻoku nofo takatakai ʻiate koe; ke mou fakatau ʻiate kinautolu ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki mo e kau kaunanga.

45 Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them may ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they have begotten in your land; and they may be your possession.

Pea koeʻuhi ko e fānau ʻae kau muli ʻoku ʻāunofo ʻiate kimoutolu, te mou fakatau ʻiate kinautolu, pea ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻaia naʻa nau fakatupu ʻi homou fonua: pea ko homou kakai ʻakinautolu.

46 And ye may make them an inheritance for your children after you, to hold for a possession: of them may ye take your bondmen for ever; but over your brethren the children of Israel ye shall not rule, one over another, with rigour.

Pea ke mou maʻu ʻakinautolu ko e kakai ki hoʻomou fānau ʻoku muimui ʻiate kimoutolu, kenau maʻu ʻakinautolu ko honau kakai; ko hoʻomou kau tamaioʻeiki ʻo taʻengata; ka ʻe ʻikai te mou pule mālohi ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ko homou kāinga, ko e taha ki he taha.

47 And if a stranger who is a settler with thee be waxen rich, and thy brother be waxen poor beside him, and sell himself unto the stranger who is a settler with thee, or to the offshoot of a stranger's family,

Pea kapau ʻe fakaʻaʻau ʻo koloaʻia ha ʻāunofo, pe ha muli ʻoku nofo ofi kiate koe, pea fakaʻaʻau ʻo masiva ho kāinga ʻoku nofo ofi kiate ia, ʻo ne fakatau ia ki he muli pe ko e ʻāunofo ʻoku nofo ʻāunofo ofi kiate ia, pe ki ha tokotaha ʻi he hako ʻoe muli:

48 after that he is sold he may be redeemed; one of his brethren may redeem him;

Hili hono fakatau ia ʻoku ngofua ke huhuʻi ia: ʻoku ngofua ke huhuʻi ia ʻe ha tokotaha ʻi hono kāinga.

49 or his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him, or any that is nigh of kin unto him of his family may redeem him; or if he be waxen rich, he may redeem himself.

‌ʻE ngofua ke huhuʻi ia ʻe he tokoua ʻo ʻene tamai, pe ko e foha ʻoʻona, pe huhuʻi ia ʻe ha tokotaha ʻoku kāinga ofi kiate ia ʻi hono kāinga; pea kapau ʻoku ne mafai, ke huhuʻi ia ʻe ia pe.

50 And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he sold himself to him unto the year of jubilee; and the price of his sale shall be according unto the number of years; according to the time of a hired servant shall he be with him.

Pea te ne lau kiate ia naʻa ne fakatau ia ʻo fai mei he taʻu naʻe fakatau ai ia kiate ia ʻo hoko ki he taʻu ʻoe siupeli: pea ko e totongi ʻoe fakatau ʻe fakatatau ki hono lau ʻoe taʻu, ʻe fakatatau ia kiate ia mo e ngāue ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻoku totongi.

51 If there be yet many years, according unto them he shall give back the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for.

Kapau ʻoku toe lahi ʻae taʻu kimui, ʻe toe ʻatu ʻe ia ʻo fakatatau ki ai ʻae koloa ʻo hono huhuʻi mei he koloa naʻe fakatauʻaki ia.

52 And if there remain but few years unto the year of jubilee, then he shall reckon with him; according unto his years shall he give back the price of his redemption.

Pea kapau ʻoku toe siʻi pe ʻae taʻu ki he siupeli, pea ʻe lau ia ki ai mo ia, pea ʻe toe ʻatu kiate ia ʻo fakatatau ki hono taʻu ʻae totongi ʻo hono huhuʻi.

53 As a servant hired year by year shall he be with him; he shall not rule with rigour over him in thy sight.

Pea ʻe ʻiate ia ia ʻo hangē ha tamaioʻeiki ngāue ʻoku totongi ʻi he taʻu taki taha; pea ʻe ʻikai puleʻi mālohi ia kiate ia ʻi ho ʻao.

54 And if he be not redeemed by any of these means, then he shall go out in the year of jubilee, he, and his children with him.

Pea kapau ʻe ʻikai huhuʻi ia ʻi he ngaahi taʻu ko ia, pea ʻe toki tukuange ia ʻi he taʻu ʻoe siupeli, ʻa ia, mo ʻene fānau mo ia.

55 For unto Me the children of Israel are servants; they are My servants whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.

He ko e kau tamaioʻeiki kiate au ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli; ko ʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki ʻakinautolu, ʻaia kuo u ʻomi mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite: Ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.
