< Leviticus 25 >

1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, in Mount Sinai, saying,
Seyè a pale ak Moyiz sou mòn Sinayi a, li di l' konsa:
2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: When you come into the land which I am giving to you, then the land has kept a Sabbath to YHWH.
-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 [For] six years you sow your field, and [for] six years you prune your vineyard, and have gathered its increase,
Pandan sizan n'a plante jaden nou, n'a taye pye rezen nou yo, epi n'a ranmase rekòt pandan sizan.
4 and in the seventh year is a Sabbath of rest for the land, a Sabbath to YHWH; you do not sow your field, and you do not prune your vineyard;
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 you do not reap the spontaneous growth of your harvest, and you do not gather the grapes of your separated thing; it is a year of rest 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 [increase] of the land has been for you for food, to you, and to your manservant, and to your handmaid, and to your hired worker, and to your settler, who are sojourning with you;
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 your livestock, and for the beast which [is] in your land, is all its increase for [them] to eat.
Bèt domestik nou yo ak bèt bwa ki nan peyi a va manje nan sa tè a bay la tou.
8 And you have numbered seven Sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years, and the days of the seven Sabbaths of years have been forty-nine years for you,
N'a konte sèt lanne Repo, ki vle di sèt fwa sèt lanne, sa va ban nou karantnèf lanne.
9 and you have caused a horn of shouting to pass over in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month; in the Day of Atonements you cause a horn to pass over through all 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 you have hallowed the year, the fiftieth year; and you have proclaimed liberty in the land to all its inhabitants; it is a Jubilee for you; and you have turned back each to his possession; indeed, you return each to 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 It [is] a Jubilee, the fiftieth year, it is a year for you; you do not sow, nor reap its spontaneous growth, nor gather its separated things;
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] a Jubilee—it is holy to you; you eat its increase from the field;
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 you return each to his possession in this Year of the Jubilee.
Nan lanne rejwisans sa a, tout tè ki te vann ap tounen pou ansyen mèt yo ankò.
14 And when you sell anything to your fellow, or buy from the hand of your fellow, you do not oppress 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 you buy from your fellow by the number of years after the Jubilee; he sells to you by the number of the years of increase;
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 you multiply its price according to the multitude of the years, and you diminish its price according to the fewness of the years; for [it is] a number of increases [that] he is selling to you;
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 you do not oppress one another, and you have been afraid of your God; for I [am] your God YHWH.
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 you have done My statutes, and you keep My judgments, and have done them, and you have dwelt on the land confidently,
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 has given its fruit, and you have eaten to satiety, and have dwelt confidently on it.
Tè a va bay rekòt li, n'a manje kont nou, epi n'a viv nan peyi a ak kè poze.
20 And when you say, What do we eat in the seventh year, behold, do we not sow, nor gather our increase?
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 have commanded My blessing on you in the sixth year, and it has made the increase 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 you have sown [in] the eighth year, and have eaten of the old increase; you eat the old until the ninth year, until the coming in of its increase.
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 is not sold—to extinction, for the land [is] Mine, for you [are] sojourners and settlers 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 you give 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 When your brother becomes poor, and has sold his possession, then his redeemer who is near to him has come, and he has redeemed the sold thing of his brother;
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 when a man has no redeemer, and his own hand has attained [means], and he has found [it] as sufficient [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 he has reckoned the years of its sale, and has given back that which is over to the man to whom he sold [it], and he has returned to 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 has not found sufficiency to give back to him, then his sold thing has been in the hand of him who buys it until the Year of Jubilee; and it has gone out in the Jubilee, and he has returned to 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 when a man sells a dwelling-house [in] a walled city, then his right of redemption has been until the completion of a year from its selling; his right of redemption is [during these] days;
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 and if it is not redeemed to him until the fullness of a perfect year, then the house which [is] in a walled city has been established to extinction to him buying it, throughout his generations; it does 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 And a house of the villages which have no surrounding wall is reckoned on the field of the country; there is redemption for it, and it goes 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 As for cities of the Levites—houses of the cities of their possession—continuous redemption is for the Levites;
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 as for him who redeems from the Levites, then the sale of a house (and [in] the city of his possession) has gone out in the Jubilee, for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession in the midst of the sons 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 a field, a outskirt of their cities, is not sold; for it [is] a continuous possession for them.
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 when your brother has become poor, and his hand has failed with you, then you have kept hold on him, sojourner and settler, and he has lived with you;
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 you take no usury or increase from him; and you have been afraid of your God; and your brother has lived with you;
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 you do not give your money to him in usury, and you do not give your food 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] your God YHWH, who has brought you out of the land of Egypt to give the land of Canaan to you, to become 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 when your brother becomes poor with you, and he has been sold to you, you do not lay servile service on him;
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 he is as a hired worker [and] as a settler with you; he serves with you until the Year of the Jubilee—
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 he has gone out from you, he and his sons with him, and has turned back to his family; and he turns back to the possession of his fathers.
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 servants, whom I have brought out from the land of Egypt: they are not sold [with] the sale of a servant;
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 you do not rule over him with rigor, and you have been afraid of your God.
Piga nou aji mal ak moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou yo. Se pou nou gen krentif pou Bondye nou an.
44 And your manservant and your handmaid whom you have [are] from the nations who [are] around you; you buy manservant and handmaid from them,
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 and also from the sons of the settlers who are sojourning with you, you buy from them, and from their families who [are] with you, which they have begotten in your land, and they have been to you for a 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 you have taken them for an inheritance for your sons after you, to inherit [for] a possession; you lay service on them for all time, but on your brothers, the sons of Israel, each with his brother—you do not rule over him with rigor.
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 when the hand of a sojourner or settler with you attains [riches], and your brother with him has become poor, and he has been sold to a sojourner, a settler with you, or to the root of the family of a sojourner,
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 he has been sold, there is a right of redemption for him; one of his brothers redeems 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 or his uncle or a son of his uncle redeems him, or any of the relations of his flesh, of his family, redeems him, or [if] his own hand has attained [means] then he has been redeemed.
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 has reckoned with his buyer from the year of his being sold to him until the Year of Jubilee, and the money of his sale has been by the number of years; it is with him as the days of a hired worker.
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 many years still [remain], he gives back his redemption [money] according to them, from the money of his purchase.
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 few are left of the years until the Year of Jubilee, then he has reckoned with him [and] he gives back his redemption [money] according to his years;
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 worker, year by year, he is with him, and he does not rule him with rigor before your 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 is not redeemed in these [years], then he has gone out in the Year of Jubilee, he and his sons 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 sons of Israel [are] servants to Me; they [are] My servants whom I have brought out of the land of Egypt; I [am] your God YHWH.”
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.
