Deuteronomy 15
1 “At the end of every seven years, you must (cancel all debts/tell people who owe you money that they do not need to pay it back).
Septītā gada galā tev būs turēt atlaišanu.
2 Do it like this: Each of you who has lent money to a fellow Israeli must cancel that debt. You must not insist that he pay it back. You must do that because Yahweh has declared that the debts must be canceled [every seven years].
Šāda nu ir tā atlaišana, ka ikvienam aizdevējam būs atlaist, ko tas savam tuvākam aizdevis; tam nebūs spiest savu tuvāko nedz savu brāli, jo Tam Kungam atlaišana ir izsaukta.
3 [During that year] you may require foreigners [who live among you] to pay what they owe you, but you must not try to require that any fellow Israeli pay you what he owes you.
No svešinieka atprasi, bet kas tev pie tava brāļa, to lai tava roka atlaiž.
4 Yahweh our God will bless you in the land that he is giving to you. If you obey Yahweh our God and obey all the commandments that I am giving to you today, there will not be any poor people among you.
Lai jel nav nabagu tavā starpā; jo Tas Kungs svētīdams tevi svētīs tai zemē, ko Viņš, Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dos iemantot par īpašumu,
Ja tu tikai Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, balsi klausīsi, turēdams visus šos baušļus, ko es tev šodien pavēlu.
6 Yahweh our God will bless you like he has promised to do, and you will [be able to] lend money to people of other people-groups, but you will not [need to] borrow from any of them. You will control [the finances of] many people-groups, but they will not control your [finances].
Jo Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tevi svētīs, tā kā Viņš tev runājis; tad tu aizdosi daudz tautām, bet tu neaizņemsies, un tu valdīsi pār daudz tautām, bet viņām pār tevi nebūs valdīt.
7 “In the towns that Yahweh our God is giving to you, if there are any Israelis who are poor, do not be selfish [IDM] and refuse [IDM] to help them.
Kad tavā starpā būs nabags, kāds no taviem brāļiem kādos vārtos tavā zemē, ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tev dos, tad tev nebūs apcietināt savu sirdi, nedz aizslēgt savu roku priekš sava nabaga brāļa;
8 Instead, be generous [IDM] and lend to them the money that they need.
Bet atvērdams atver viņam savu roku un aizdodams aizdod viņam, cik viņam vajag savā trūkumā, kas trūkst.
9 Be sure that you do not say to yourself, ‘The year when debts will be canceled is near, [so I do not want to lend anyone any money now, because he will not need to pay it back when that year comes].’ It would be evil to even think that. If you act in an unfriendly way toward a needy fellow Israeli, and give him nothing, he will cry out to Yahweh about you, and [Yahweh will say that] you have sinned [by not helping that person].
Sargies, ka tavā sirdī nav blēdības, ka tu nesaki: septītais gads, tas atlaišanas gads, ir tuvu, un tava acs būtu ļauna pret savu brāli, kas nabags, un tu viņam nedod; tad viņš par tevi brēks uz To Kungu, un tas tev būs par grēku.
10 Give freely to poor people and give generously [IDM].
Dod viņam labprāt, lai tava sirds nav ļauna, kad tu viņam dod, jo tādēļ Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tevi svētīs visā tavā darbā un pie visa, kur tu savu roku pieliksi.
11 If you do that, Yahweh will bless you in everything that you do. There will always be some poor people in your land, so I command you to give generously to poor [DOU] people.”
Jo tur nabagu netrūks tai zemē, tādēļ es tev pavēlu un saku: atvērdams atver savu roku savam brālim, kas top spaidīts un ir nabags tavā zemē.
12 “If any of your fellow Israeli men or women sell themselves to one of you [to become your slave], you must free them after they have worked for you for six years. When the seventh year comes, you must free them.
Kad tavs brālis tev būs pārdots, Ebrejs vai Ebrejiete, tad lai viņš tev kalpo sešus gadus, bet septītā gadā tev būs viņu svabadu atlaist no sevis.
13 When you free them, do not allow them to go (empty-handed/without giving them anything).
Un kad tu viņu svabadu atlaidi, tad neatlaid viņu tukšu.
14 Give to them generously from the things with which Yahweh has blessed you—sheep, grain, and wine.
Apdāvinādams apdāvini to no sava ganāmā pulka, no savas klēts un no sava vīna spaida; ar ko Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tevi svētījis, no tā tev būs viņam dot.
15 Do not forget that your ancestors were once slaves in Egypt, and Yahweh our God freed them. That is the reason that I am now commanding you to do this.
Un piemini, ka tu esi bijis kalps Ēģiptes zemē, un ka Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, tevi atpestījis, tāpēc es tev šodien pavēlu šās lietas.
16 “But one of your slaves may say, ‘I do not want to leave you.’ He loves you and your family, because you have treated him well.
Bet ja viņš uz tevi sacīs: es no tevis negribu aiziet, tāpēc ka viņš tevi un tavu namu mīl, ka tam labi klājās pie tevis.
17 If he says that, take him to the door of your house and, [while he stands against the doorway], pierce one of his earlobes with (an awl/a sharp pointed tool). That will indicate that he will be your slave for the rest of his life. Do the same thing to any female slave [who does not want to leave you].
Tad ņem īlenu un piedur viņa ausi pie durvīm, tad tas tev būs par kalpu mūžīgi; tāpat dari savai kalponei.
18 “Do not complain when you are required to free your slaves. [Keep in mind that] they served you for six years, and you paid them only half as much as you pay the servants that you hire. [If you free them, ] Yahweh our God will bless you in everything that you do.”
Lai tev grūti nenākas viņu atlaist svabadu no sevis, jo sešus gadus viņš tev nokalpojis divkārtīgu algādža algu; tad tevi Tas Kungs, tavs Dievs, svētīs pie visa, ko tu darīsi.
19 “(Set aside for/Dedicate to) Yahweh our God the firstborn male animals from your cattle and sheep. Do not force them to do any work for you, and do not (shear/cut off) the wool [of the firstborn animals to sell the wool].
Ikvienu pirmdzimto, kas dzimst no tavām govīm un avīm, to tēviņu tev būs svētīt Tam Kungam, savam Dievam; ar savas govs pirmdzimto tev nebūs strādāt, un savu avju pirmdzimto tev nebūs cirpt.
20 You and your family may [kill them and] eat their meat in the presence of Yahweh at the place that Yahweh chooses [for you to worship him].
Tā Kunga, sava Dieva, priekšā tev un tavam namam to būs ēst ikgadus tai vietā, ko Tas Kungs izredzēs.
21 But if the animals have any defects, if they are lame or blind, or if they have any other serious defect, you must not sacrifice them to Yahweh our God.
Bet ja tam kāda vaina, ka ir vai klibs vai akls, jeb ja ir cita kāda ļauna vaina, tad tev to nebūs upurēt Tam Kungam, savam Dievam.
22 You may [kill and] eat [the meat of those animals] at your homes. Those who have done things that cause them to become unacceptable to God and those who have not done such things are permitted to eat that meat, just like anyone is permitted to eat the meat of a deer or an antelope.
Savos vārtos to ēdat, nešķīstais un šķīstais kopā, itin kā stirnu un kā briedi.
23 But you must not eat any of the blood; you must drain all the blood on the ground [when you kill those animals].”
Tikai viņa asinis tev nebūs ēst, tās tev būs izliet zemē kā ūdeni.
