Leviticus 25
1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses in Mount Sinai, saying—
Mukama Katonda yagamba Musa ku lusozi Sinaayi nti,
2 Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say unto them: —When ye enter into the land which, I, am giving you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto Yahweh.
“Tegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri nti bwe mutuukanga mu nsi gye mbawa, ensi yennyini eneekuumiranga Mukama Katonda ssabbiiti.
3 Six years, shalt thou sow thy field, and, six years, shalt thou prune thy vineyard, —and gather the increase thereof;
Okumala emyaka mukaaga ennimiro zammwe munaazisigangamu emmere, era mu myaka egyo omukaaga munaasaliranga emizabbibu gyammwe n’ebibala ne mubikungula.
4 but, in the seventh year—a sabbath of sacred rest, shall there be unto the land, a sabbath unto Yahweh: thy field, shalt thou not sow, and, thy vineyard, shalt thou not prune;
Naye mu mwaka ogw’omusanvu ettaka ly’ensi eyo linaabanga ne ssabbiiti ey’okuwummula eri Mukama Katonda. Temusiganga mmere mu nnimiro zammwe wadde okusalira emizabbibu gyammwe.
5 that which groweth of itself of thy harvest, shalt thou not reap; and the grapes of thine unpruned vines, shalt thou not cut off: a year of sacred rest, shall there be to the land.
Ebimera ebyekuzizza byokka, ebimererezi, temubikungulanga wadde okunoga ebibala ku mizabbibu gyammwe egitaasalirwa. Omwaka ogwo ettaka ly’ensi linaaguwummulanga.
6 So shall the sabbath of the land be unto you for food: unto thee, and unto thy servant and unto thy handmaid, —and unto thy hireling, and unto thy settlers that are sojourning with thee;
Ebyo byonna ebyokulya ebinaavanga mu ttaka mu mwaka ogwa ssabbiiti yaalyo binaabanga mmere yammwe, mmwe bennyini, n’eri abaddu bammwe abasajja, n’abakazi, era n’abaweereza bammwe ab’empeera, n’abagenyi abanaabanga basula mu maka gammwe;
7 and unto thy tame-beasts, and unto the wild-beasts that are in thy land, shall belong all the increase thereof for food.
era n’ente zammwe n’ensolo ez’omu nsiko ezinaabanga ku ttaka lyammwe. Buli ekyokulya ekinaakuliranga ku ttaka eryo kinaabanga mmere.
8 And thou shalt count to thee seven weeks of years, seven years, seven times, —so shall the days of the seven weeks of years become to thee forty-nine years.
“Munaabaliriranga essabbiiti musanvu ez’omu myaka, kwe kugamba nti musanvu emirundi emyaka musanvu. Bwe kityo ekiseera kyonna ekya ssabbiiti ezo ne kiba emyaka amakumi ana mu mwenda.
9 Then shalt thou cause a signal-horn to pass through in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month: on the Day of Propitiation, shall ye cause a horn to pass throughout all your land.
Ekkondeere ery’okujaguza munaalifuuyiranga wonna wonna ku lunaku olw’ekkumi mu mwezi ogw’omusanvu ku Lunaku olw’Okutangiririrwa, ekkondeere munaalifuuyiranga mu nsi yammwe yonna.
10 So shall ye hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim freedom throughout the land to all the dwellers thereof, —a jubilee, shall it be unto you, and ye shall return, every man unto his possession, and every man unto his family, shall ye return.
Munaatukuzanga omwaka ogw’amakumi ataano, era munaalangiriranga ebiseera eby’eddembe eri abatuuze bonna mu ggwanga lyammwe. Omwaka ogwo gunaabanga gwa kujaguza gwa Jjubiri gye muli; buli omu anaddangayo mu kifo kye eky’obwannannyini, era buli omu anaddangayo mu kika kye.
11 A jubilee, shall that fiftieth year be unto you, —ye shall not sow, neither shall ye reap the self-grown corn thereof, nor cut off the grapes of the unpruned vines thereof.
Omwaka ogw’amakumi ataano gunaabanga gwa kujaguza gwa Jjubiri gye muli; mu mwaka ogwo temuusigenga era temuukungulenga bikuze ku bimererezi newaakubadde okukuŋŋaanya ebibala eby’oku mizabbibu egitali misalire.
12 For, a jubilee, it is, holy, shall it be unto you, —out of the field, shall ye eat her increase.
Kubanga ekiseera ekyo kya kujaguza kya Jjubiri era kinaabanga kitukuvu gye muli; mulyenga ebyo byokka bye munaggyanga mu nnimiro.
13 In this same jubilee year, shall ye return every man unto his possession.
“Mu mwaka ogwo ogw’okujaguza ogwa Jjubiri buli omu anaddangayo mu kifo kye eky’obwannannyini.
14 And when ye sell anything to thy neighbour, or buy aught at thy neighbour’s hand, do not overreach one another.
Era bwe munaatunzanga bannammwe ekintu kyonna oba bwe munaagulanga ku bannammwe ekintu kyonna, temuseeragananga.
15 By the number of years after the jubilee, shalt thou buy of thy neighbour, —by the number of the years of increase, shall he sell unto thee;
Munnansi munno onoomugulangako ng’osinziira ku myaka egyakayitawo okuva ku kujaguza ku Jjubiri. Era naye anaakutunzanga ng’asinziira ku myaka egibulayo okutuuka ku makungula g’ebibala.
16 according to the multitude of the years, shalt thou increase the price thereof, and, according to the fewness of the years, shalt thou diminish the price thereof, —because the sum of the increase, it is that he selleth thee.
Emyaka bwe ginaabanga emingi, omuwendo ogulamulwa munaagwongezanga, naye emyaka bwe ginaabanga emitono munaagukendeezanga, kubanga obungi bw’ebikungulwa, bw’ogula ku mutunzi.
17 So then ye shall not overreach one another; but thou shalt stand in awe of thy God, —for, I—Yahweh, am your God.
Temuseeragananga; mutyanga Katonda wammwe, kubanga Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe.
18 Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and my regulations, shall ye observe and do them, —so shall ye dwell upon the land with confidence;
“Mugonderenga ebiragiro byange, era mukwatenga amateeka gange, bwe mutyo munaatuulanga n’emirembe mu nsi yammwe.
19 and the land shall yield her fruit; and ye shall eat to the full, —and shall dwell with confidence thereupon.
Ensi eneebaleeteranga ebibala byayo, ne mulya ne mukkuta ne mutuulamu n’emirembe.
20 And since ye may say, What shall we eat in the seventh year? Lo! we are not to sow, neither are we to gather our increase!
Muyinza okubuuza nti, ‘Bwe tutaasigenga era ne tutakungulanga, kale mu mwaka ogw’omusanvu tunaalyanga ki?’
21 Therefore will I command my blessing upon you, in the sixth year, —and it shall make the increase of three years;
Mu mwaka ogw’omukaaga ndibayiwako omukisa gwange ogulireetera ensi yammwe ebibala ebirimala emyaka esatu.
22 and ye shall sow, the eighth year, and eat of old store, —until the ninth year until the coming in of the increase thereof, shall ye eat old store.
Bwe munaabanga musiga mu mwaka ogw’omunaana, munaabanga mulya ku bibala ebikadde bye mwatereka, okutuusa nga mukungudde ebibala eby’omwaka ogw’omwenda.
23 The land moreover shall not be sold beyond recovery, for, mine, is the land, —for, sojourners and settlers, ye are with me.
Ettaka teriitundibwenga kagenderere, kubanga ensi yange; mwe muli bayise era abasuze obusuze.
24 And, in all the land of your possession, a right of redemption, shall ye give to the land.
Buli kitundu kya nsi kye munaalyanga, bwe mutundanga ettaka mwerekerangawo omwagaanya ogw’okulinunulayo gye mulitunze.
25 When thy brother waxeth poor, and so selleth aught of his possession, then may his kinsman that is near unto him come in, and redeem that which was sold by his brother.
“Munnansi munnammwe bw’anaayavuwalanga, n’atunda ebimu ku bintu bye, muganda we ow’okumpi mu luganda anajjanga n’anunula ebyo munnansi munne by’atunze.
26 And, when, any man, hath no kinsman, —but his own hand getteth enough, so that he findeth what is needed to redeem it,
Omuntu bw’anaabanga talina anaabimununulira, naye ye ku bubwe ng’agaggawadde, era ng’afunye obusobozi obw’okubinunula,
27 then shall he reckon the years since he sold it, and restore the overplus to the man to whom he sold it, —and shall return to his possession.
anaabaliriranga omuwendo gw’ensimbi oguli mu myaka kasookedde abitunda, n’abala n’omuwendo ogugya mu myaka egisigaddeyo okutuuka ku Jjubiri, n’agusasula omuntu gwe yaguza ebintu ebyo, olwo eyatunda aneddirangayo mu bintu bye.
28 But, if his hand have not found enough to get it back unto him, then shall that which he sold remain in the hand of him that bought it, until the year of the jubilee, —and shall go out in the jubilee, and he shall return unto his possession.
Naye singa alemwa okufuna obusobozi okumusasula, kale ebyo bye yatunda binaasigalanga mu mukono gw’eyabigula nga ye nannyini byo okutuusa mu Mwaka gwa Jjubiri. Binamuddizibwanga mu Jjubiri, era anaayinzanga okweddirayo mu bintu bye.
29 And, when, any man, selleth a dwelling-house in a walled city, then shall his right of redemption remain until the completion of a year after he sold it, —for, [a year of] days, shall his right of redemption remain.
“Omuntu bw’anaatundanga ennyumba esulwamu eri mu kibuga ekyetooloddwa bbugwe, anaayinzanga okuginunula mu mwaka nga tegunaggwaako. Mu bbanga eryo ery’omwaka omulamba mw’anaabeereranga n’obuyinza obw’okuginunula.
30 But, if it be not redeemed before the end of a full year, then shall the house that is in the city that hath walls be confirmed, beyond recovery, to him who bought it, unto his generations, —it shall not go out in the jubilee.
Ennyumba eyo eri mu kibuga ekyetooloddwa bbugwe bw’eteenunulibwenga mu bbanga ery’omwaka ogumu, kale eneebeereranga ddala y’oyo eyagigula n’ezzadde lye. Eyagitunda teemuddizibwenga mu Jjubiri.
31 But as for the houses of villages which have no wall round about them, with the fields of land, shall it be reckoned, —a right of redemption, shall belong to it, and, in the jubilee, shall it go out.
Naye amayumba ag’omu bubuga obutono obw’omu byalo obuteetooloddwako bisenge, ganaabalirwanga mu ttuluba lye limu n’ery’ennimiro eziri mu byalo. Ganaanunulibwanga era ne gaddira bannyinigo mu Jjubiri.
32 And as for the cities of the Levites, the houses of the cities of their possession, an age-abiding right of redemption, shall pertain unto the Levites.
“Bulijjo Abaleevi banaabanga ba ddembe okununula amayumba gaabwe agali mu bibuga byabwe eby’Abaleevi bye balinako obwannannyini.
33 And, if one of the Levites should not redeem, then shall the sale of the house and the city of his possession go out in the jubilee; for, the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession, in the midst of the sons of Israel.
Era Omuleevi bw’anaabanga takozesezza ddembe lye ery’okununula, kale ennyumba eyatundirwa mu kibuga Abaleevi kye balinako obwannannyini, eneemuddiranga mu Jjubiri; kubanga mu bantu ba Isirayiri ennyumba eziri mu bibuga by’Abaleevi za Baleevi.
34 But the field of the pasture-land of their cities, shall not be sold, —for an age-abiding possession, it is unto them.
Naye ennimiro eziri ku ttaka lya wamu ery’ebibuga byabwe teziitundibwenga; kubanga ezo zaabwe za bwannannyini obw’olubeerera.
35 And, when thy brother waxeth poor, and his hand becometh feeble with thee, then shalt thou strengthen him, as a sojourner and a settler, so shall he live with thee.
“Munnansi munnammwe bw’anaayavuwalanga ng’ali wamu nammwe, nga takyasobola kwefunira buyambi, mubeerenga naye nga mumulabirira nga bwe mwandirabiridde omunnaggwanga oba omusuze obusuze ali mu mmwe.
36 Do not accept from him interest or profit, but stand thou in awe of thy God, —so shall thy brother live with thee.
Mutyenga Katonda wammwe. Munnammwe temumuggyangako magoba ku kintu kyonna kye munaabanga mumuwoze, bw’atyo munnammwe oyo alyoke abeerenga mu mmwe.
37 Thy silver, shalt thou not give him on interest, —neither, for profit, shalt thou give him thy food.
Bw’omuwolanga ensimbi azzengawo omuwendo gwennyini gw’omuwoze so tasukkirizangamu. Era bw’omuguzanga emmere tossangamu magoba.
38 I—Yahweh, am your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, —to give unto you the land of Canaan, to become your God,
Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe eyabaggya mu nsi ey’e Misiri okubawa ensi ya Kanani n’okubeera Katonda wammwe.
39 And when thy brother waxeth poor with thee, and so selleth himself unto thee, thou shalt not bind him with the bondage of a bondman:
“Era munnansi munnammwe bw’anaayavuwalanga ng’ali nammwe, ne yeetunda gye muli, temumukozesanga nga muddu.
40 as a hired servant, as a settler, shall he remain with thee, —until the year of the jubilee, shall he serve with thee:
Munaamukozesanga ng’omupakasi ow’empeera oba ng’omusuze obusuze, ng’ali nammwe. Anaabaweerezanga okutuusa mu Mwaka gwa Jjubiri.
41 then shall he go forth from thee, he and his sons with him, —and shall return unto his family, and unto the possession of his fathers, shall he return.
Kale nno, olwo anaalekebwanga n’addayo ewaabwe, ye n’abaana be, mu kika kye ku butaka bwa bakadde be.
42 For, my bondmen, they are, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt, —they shall not sell themselves with the sale of a bondman.
Kubanga baweereza bange be naggya mu nsi y’e Misiri; tebaatundibwenga ng’abaddu.
43 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour, —so shalt thou stand in awe of thy God.
Temubafugisanga bukambwe, naye mutyenga Katonda wammwe.
44 And as for thy bondman and thy bond-maid which thou shalt have, of the nations that are round about you—from them, may ye buy bondman and bond-maid.
Abaddu bammwe abasajja n’abaddu bammwe abakazi munaabaggyanga mu mawanga agabeetoolodde, mu mawanga ago mwe muneeguliranga abaddu abasajja n’abaddu abakazi.
45 Moreover also, of the sons of the settlers who are sojourning with you—of them, may ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they have begotten in your land, —so shall they become yours, as a possession;
Era munaayinzanga okwegulira ku bannamawanga abali nammwe abasuze obusuze, ne ku baana baabwe abanaazaalirwanga mu nsi yammwe; abo banaabanga nvuma zammwe.
46 and ye may take them as an inheritance for your sons after you to inherit as a possession, unto times age-abiding, of them, may ye take to be bondmen, —but, over your brethren the sons of Israel—a man over his brother, ye shall not rule, over him with rigour.
Munaayinzanga okulaamira batabani bammwe abalibagoberera envuma ezo ng’obusika bwabwe obw’emirembe gyonna. Naye Bayisirayiri bannammwe temubafugisanga bukambwe.
47 And, when the hand of the sojourner and settler with thee getteth possessions, and thy brother with him, waxeth poor, —and so he selleth himself to the sojourner [who is] a settler with thee, or to one who hath taken root, of the family of the sojourner,
“Omunnaggwanga oba omusuze obusuze ali nammwe bw’anaagaggawalanga, naye munnansi munnammwe bwe babeera n’ayavuwala, ne yeetunda eri munnaggwanga oba eri omusuze obusuze ali nammwe, oba eri omu ku b’omu luggya lwa munnaggwanga,
48 after that he hath sold himself, a right of redemption, pertaineth to him, —one of his brethren, may redeem him;
anaayinzanga okununulibwa, ng’amaze okwetunda. Omu ku baganda be anayinzanga okumununula:
49 or, his uncle or his uncle’s son, may redeem him, or, a near flesh-relation of his, of his family, may redeem him, or, his own hand may have gotten enough, and, so he may redeem himself.
Taata we oba mutabani wa taata we, oba owooluganda omulala ow’okumpi mu buzaale ow’omu kika kye anaayinzanga okumununula. Oba ye bw’anaagaggawalanga anaayinzanga okwenunula.
50 Then shall he reckon with him that bought him, from the year that he was sold to him, unto the year of the jubilee, —and the silver for which he was sold shall be by the number of years, according to the days of a hired servant, shall he be with him.
Ye n’oli eyamugula bajjanga kubalirira ebbanga okuva mu mwaka gwe yeetundiramu okutuuka ku Mwaka gwa Jjubiri. Omuwendo ogw’okununulibwa guneesigamizibwanga ku muwendo gw’emyaka egibaliriddwa; ebbanga lye yamala n’eyamugula linaageraageranyizibwanga n’ebbanga ery’omupakasi asasulwa empeera.
51 If there is yet a multitude of years, according to them, shall he return, as his redemption price, of the silver of him that bought him.
Mu kubalirira kwabwe bwe kinaazuukanga ng’ekyasigaddeyo emyaka mingi okutuuka ku Jjubiri, ku muwendo gwe yeetunda anaasasulangako omuwendo munene olw’okwenunula.
52 Or, if [there is] but a small remainder of years, until the year of the jubilee, then shall he reckon to himself, according to the years thereof, shall he return his price of redemption.
Naye bw’eneebanga esigaddeyo emyaka mitono, egyo gy’anaabalirirangamu ensimbi zaamu n’asasula ezo nga bwe kyetaagisa olw’okwenunula.
53 As a servant hired year by year, shall he be with him, he shall not rule over him with rigour, before thine eyes.
Oyo eyagula munne anaamuyisanga ng’omupakasi amukolera mu kupatana okwa buli mwaka. Temulekanga oyo eyagula munne okumutuntuzanga nga nammwe mulaba.
54 But if he be not redeemed in any of these ways, then shall he go out in the jubilee year, he, and his sons with him.
“Bw’anaabanga tanunulibbwa mu zimu ku ngeri ezo, ye n’abaana be banaanunulibwanga mu Mwaka gwa Jjubiri.
55 For, unto me, are the sons of Israel, bondmen, my bondmen, they are, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt. I, Yahweh, am your God.
Kubanga abaana ba Isirayiri bantu bange, abaweereza bange be naggya mu nsi ey’e Misiri. Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe.
