< Deuteronomy 15 >

1 At the end of [every] seven years shalt thou make a release.
Ku buli nkomerero y’omwaka ogw’omusanvu, amabanja gonna onoogasonyiwanga.
2 And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor shall release the loan which he hath lent to his neighbor; he shall not exact it of his neighbor, or of his brother; because the release year in honor of the Lord hath been proclaimed.
Okusonyiwa okwo kunaabeeranga bwe kuti: buli muntu eyawola munne ebbanja, anaasazangamu ebbanja eryo lye yamuwola. Temubanjanga Bayisirayiri bannammwe, kubanga ebiro Mukama by’anaabanga ataddewo eby’okusonyiwagana amabanja binaabanga bimaze okulangirirwa.
3 Of a foreigner thou mayest exact [payment]; but that which is thine with thy brother shall thy hand release.
Onooyinzanga okubanja munnaggwanga akusasule, naye ebbanja muganda wo ly’akulinako onoolimusonyiwanga.
4 Although indeed there should be no needy man among thee; for the Lord will greatly bless thee in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it:
Naye tewaabeerengawo mwavu mu mmwe kubanga ng’otuuse mu nsi Mukama Katonda wo gy’akuwa okugyefunira ng’obutaka bwo obw’enkalakkalira n’akuyiwangako emikisa gye emingi,
5 Yet only if thou wilt carefully hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all this commandment which I command thee this day.
kasita onoogonderanga ddala Mukama Katonda wo, n’ogoberera n’obwegendereza ebiragiro bino byonna bye nkuwa leero.
6 For the Lord thy God blesseth thee, as he hath spoken unto thee; and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt rule over many nations, but over thee shall they not rule.
Kubanga Mukama Katonda wo agenda kukuyiwako emikisa gye nga bwe yakusuubiza. Amawanga mangi onoogawolanga naye ggwe tojjanga kugeewolako. Onoofuganga amawanga mangi, naye go tegaakufugenga.
7 If there be among thee a needy man, any one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which the Lord thy God giveth thee: thou shalt not harden thy heart, nor shut thy hand from thy needy brother.
Bw’onoobanga oli mu bibuga by’omu nsi Mukama Katonda wo gy’akuwa, mu mmwe bwe munaabangamu munno omwavu ali mu kwetaaga tokakanyazanga mutima gwo wadde okukodowaliranga muganda wo oyo omwavu.
8 But thou shalt open wide thy hand unto him, and thou shalt surely lend him sufficient for his need, which his want requireth.
Omwanjululizanga engalo zo, n’omuwolanga n’okwagala kyonna ky’anaabanga yeetaaga okumuwewulako obuzibu bwe.
9 Beware that there be not a wicked thought in thy heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thy eye be thus evil against thy needy brother, so that thou wouldst give him nought; and if he cry concerning thee unto the Lord, it will be sin in thee:
Weekuumenga nnyo olemenga kubeeranga na ndowooza eno embi mu mutima gwo nti, “Omwaka ogw’omusanvu ogw’okusonyiwa amabanja gusembedde,” muganda wo n’omukwatirwa ettima n’otobaako ky’omuwa. Muganda wo ayinza okujulira eri Mukama n’osangibwanga ng’ogudde mu kibi.
10 Thou shalt surely give him, and thy heart shall not be grieved when thou givest unto him; for because of this thing the Lord thy God will bless thee in all thy work, and in all the acquisition of thy hand.
Muwenga n’okwagala n’obutajuliriranga, kubanga olw’omwoyo ng’ogwo, Mukama Katonda wo ajjanga kukuwanga omukisa mu mirimu gyo gyonna, ne mu buli kintu ky’onootuusangako engalo zo.
11 For the needy will not cease out of the land; therefore do I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open wide thy hand unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.
Olwokubanga mu nsi temuubulengamu baavu abali mu kwetaaga, kyenva nkulagira nti muganda wo omwavu era ali mu kwetaaga omwanjululizanga engalo zo bulijjo mu nsi yo.
12 If thy brother, the Hebrew, or a Hebrew woman, be sold unto thee, he shall serve thee six years; and in the seventh year shalt thou let him go free from thee.
Omusajja Omwebbulaniya oba omukazi Omwebbulaniya gw’onoobanga oguze okukuweerezanga, bw’anaamalangako emyaka omukaaga, mu mwaka ogw’omusanvu onoomuddizanga eddembe lye.
13 And when thou lettest him go out free from thee, thou shalt not let him go away empty:
Era bw’onoomutanga tomusiibulanga ngalo nsa.
14 Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flocks, and out of thy threshing-floor, and out of thy wine-press; wherewith the Lord thy God hath blessed thee, that shalt thou give unto him.
Omuwangako, nga teweebalira, ku magana go, ne ku mmere yo ey’empeke, ne ku wayini wo. Omuwanga nga Mukama Katonda wo bw’anaabanga akuwadde omukisa.
15 And thou shalt remember that thou hast been a bond-man in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord thy God hath redeemed thee; therefore do I command thee this thing today.
Ojjukiranga nga wali muddu mu nsi y’e Misiri, Mukama Katonda wo n’akununulayo. Noolwekyo kyenva nkuwa ekiragiro kino leero.
16 And it shall be, if he say unto thee, I will not go away from thee; because he loveth thee and thy house, because he is well with thee:
Naye omuddu bw’anaakugambanga nti, “Sijja kuva wano,” kubanga akwagala nnyo ggwe n’abali mu maka go, era nga bw’abeera naawe aba bulungi;
17 Then shalt thou take an awl, and thrust it through his ear unto the door, and he shall be unto thee a servant for ever; and also unto thy maid-servant shalt thou do likewise.
kale nno, onoomulazanga awali oluggi, n’oddira olukato n’olufumitanga mu kutu kwe okw’ebweru ne luyingira ne mu luggi; olwo anaabanga afuuse muweereza wo ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwe bwonna. N’omuweereza wo omukazi naye onoomuyisanga bw’otyo.
18 It shall not seem hard unto thee, when thou sendest him away free from thee, that for double the wages of a hired laborer hath he served thee six years; and the Lord thy God will bless thee in all that thou doest.
Tolowoozanga nti omukwatiddwa ekisa kubanga akuweerezza okumala emyaka mukaaga, nga buli mulimu gw’akola gwandikoleddwanga abaweereza ab’empeera babiri balamba. Era mu byonna by’onookolanga, Mukama Katonda wo anaakuwanga omukisa.
19 All the first-born males that come of thy herds and of thy flocks shalt thou sanctify unto the Lord thy God: thou shalt do no work with the first-born of thy bullock, and not shear the first-born of thy sheep.
Buli bibereberye ebisajja ebinaazaalibwanga mu ggana lyo ne mu kisibo kyo, onoobitukuzanga era binaabanga bya Mukama Katonda wo. Ente zo ennume embereberye tozikozesanga mirimu, n’endiga zo embereberye tozisalangako byoya.
20 Before the Lord thy God shalt thou eat it year by year, in the place which the Lord will choose, thou with thy household.
Ebibereberye ebyo onoobiryanga buli mwaka, buli mwaka, ggwe n’ab’omu nju yo bonna, nga mubiriiranga mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo, mu kifo Mukama ky’anaabanga yeerondedde.
21 And if there be any blemish thereon, if it be lame, or blind, or have any [other] ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto the Lord thy God.
Ekisolo bwe kinaabeerangako akamogo, gamba nga kirema, oba nga kizibe kya maaso, oba nga kiriko ekikyamu kyonna ekinene, tokireetanga ng’ekiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda wo.
22 Within thy gates shalt thou eat it, the unclean and the clean together, as the roebuck, and as the hart.
Onookiriiranga mu bibuga byo. Omulongoofu n’atali mulongoofu mwenna munaabiryanga nga bwe munaalyanga empeewo oba enjaza.
23 Only the blood thereof shalt thou not eat: upon the ground shalt thou pour it out as water.
Naye omusaayi togulyanga, oguyiwanga wansi ku ttaka ng’ayiwa amazzi.
