Deuteronomy 15
1 'At the end of seven years thou dost make a release,
Nʼọgwụgwụ afọ asaa ọbụla, ị ga-akagbu ụgwọ niile mmadụ ji gị.
2 and this [is] the matter of the release: Every owner of a loan [is] to release his hand which he doth lift up against his neighbour, he doth not exact of his neighbour and of his brother, but hath proclaimed a release to Jehovah;
Otu a ka a ga-esi mee ya: Onye ọbụla e ji ụgwọ ga-akagbu ụgwọ niile onye Izrel ibe ya ji ya. Ọ gaghị elekwa anya na onye agbataobi ya maọbụ nwanna ya ga-akwụ ya ụgwọ ahụ, nʼihi na oge a na-ekwusa mgbaghara ụgwọ Onyenwe anyị eruola.
3 of the stranger thou mayest exact, and that which is thine with thy brother doth thy hand release;
Mgbaghara a erughị nʼebe ndị ọbịa nọ, ma ị ghaghị ịkagbu ụgwọ ọbụla nwanna gị ji gị.
4 only when there is no needy one with thee, for Jehovah doth greatly bless thee in the land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee — an inheritance to possess it.
Otu ọ dị, o kwesighị ka ndị ogbenye dịrị nʼetiti gị, nʼihi nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị na-enye gị ka inweta dịka ihe nketa gị, ọ ga-agọzi gị nke ukwuu,
5 'Only, if thou dost diligently hearken to the voice of Jehovah thy God, to observe to do all this command which I am commanding thee to-day,
ma ọ bụrụ na i rube isi nye Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, ma lezie anya debe iwu ndị a niile m na-enye gị taa.
6 for Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee as He hath spoken to thee; and thou hast lent [to] many nations, and thou hast not borrowed; and thou hast ruled over many nations, and over thee they do not rule.
Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ga-agọzi gị dịka o kwere na nkwa. Ị ga-agbazinye ọtụtụ mba ego, ị gaghị anọ nʼụkọ! Ị ga-achị ọtụtụ mba, ma ha agaghị achị gị.
7 'When there is with thee any needy one of one of thy brethren, in one of thy cities, in thy land which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee, thou dost not harden thy heart, nor shut thy hand from thy needy brother;
Ma mgbe ị banyere nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị Chineke unu na-enye gị, a sị na e nwee onye ogbenye nʼetiti gị, nke bụ onye Izrel ibe gị, ị gaghị emechi obi gị maọbụ kechie aka gị megide ya,
8 for thou dost certainly open thy hand to him, and dost certainly lend him sufficient for his lack which he lacketh.
ị ghaghị ịgbazinye ya ihe dị ka o si chọọ.
9 'Take heed to thee lest there be a word in thy heart — worthless, saying, Near [is] the seventh year, the year of release; and thine eye is evil against thy needy brother, and thou dost not give to him, and he hath called concerning thee unto Jehovah, and it hath been in thee sin;
Lezie anya ka ị ghara inwe ụdị echiche ọjọọ a nʼobi gị sị, “Afọ mgbaghara ụgwọ na-abịa nso,” nʼihi ya, i kechie obi gị jụ ibinye nwanna gị nọ na mkpa ihe ọ chọrọ. Ọ bụrụ na onye ahụ nọ na mkpa akwaa akwa kpọkuo Onyenwe anyị, a ga-agụ gị dịka onye ikpe mmehie mara.
10 thou dost certainly give to him, and thy heart is not sad in thy giving to him, for because of this thing doth Jehovah thy God bless thee in all thy works, and in every putting forth of thy hand;
Ị ghaghị inye ha site nʼafọ ofufu, meekwa nke a na-enweghị obi ilu, mgbe ahụ, nʼihi nke a, Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị ga-agọzi gị nʼọrụ gị niile nakwa ihe niile nke ị tinyere aka na ya.
11 because the needy one doth not cease out of the land, therefore I am commanding thee, saying, Thou dost certainly open thy hand to thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy one, in thy land.
A ghaghị inwe ndị ogbenye nʼetiti unu, ọ bụ ya mere iwu a jiri dị mkpa. Gbasapụ aka nʼebe nwanna gị na nʼebe ndị ogbenye na ndị nọ na mkpa nọ.
12 'When thy brother is sold to thee, a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, and he hath served thee six years — then in the seventh year thou dost send him away free from thee.
Ọ bụrụ na onye Hibru ibe gị, ndị nwoke maọbụ ndị nwanyị, eresi gị onwe ha, gbakwaara gị odibo afọ isii, nʼafọ nke asaa, ị ghaghị ịhapụ ha ka ha nwere onwe ha.
13 And when thou dost send him away free from thee, thou dost not send him away empty;
Mgbe ọ hapụrụ ụlọ gị, ezipụkwala ya nʼaka efu!
14 thou dost certainly encircle him out of thy flock, and out of thy threshing-floor, and out of thy wine-vat; [of] that which Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee thou dost give to him,
Ị ga-esite nʼigwe anụ ụlọ gị, na nʼebe ịzọcha ọka gị, na nʼebe ịzọcha vaịnị gị, nye ya onyinye pụrụ iche iji sị ya laa nʼudo. Nye ya onyinye a dịka Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị si gọzie gị.
15 and thou hast remembered that a servant thou hast been in the land of Egypt, and Jehovah thy God doth ransom thee; therefore I am commanding thee this thing to-day.
Cheta na ị bụrị ohu nʼala Ijipt ma Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị gbapụtara gị. Ọ bụ nʼihi ya ka m ji na-enye gị iwu a taa.
16 'And it hath been, when he saith unto thee, I go not out from thee — because he hath loved thee, and thy house, because [it is] good for him with thee —
Ma ọ bụrụ na ohu gị asị gị, “Achọghị m ịhapụ gị,” nʼihi na ọ hụrụ gị na ndị ụlọ gị nʼanya, hụkwa na ihe na-agara gị na ya nke ọma, mgbe gị na ya nọ.
17 then thou hast taken the awl, and hast put [it] through his ear, and through the door, and he hath been to thee a servant age-during; and also to thy handmaid thou dost do so.
Were agịga kpọpuo ntị ya nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ gị. Ọ ga-abụkwara gị ohu ogologo ndụ ya niile. Otu aka ahụ kwa ka ị ga-eme ohu gị nwanyị.
18 'It is not hard in thine eyes, in thy sending him away free from thee; for the double of the hire of an hireling he hath served thee six years, and Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee in all that thou dost.
Enwela obi mwute mgbe ọbụla ị na-ahapụ ohu gị ka o nwere onwe ya, nʼihi na ị ga-echeta na ọ rụụrụ gị ọrụ afọ isii, ihe i mefukwara erughị ọkara ihe ị gaara eji goo ndị ọrụ. Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị ga-agọzikwa gị nʼihe niile ị na-eme.
19 'Every firstling that is born in thy herd and in thy flock — the male thou dost sanctify to Jehovah thy God; thou dost not work with the firstling of thine ox, nor shear the firstling of thy flock;
Nwa oke ehi ọbụla maọbụ nwa atụrụ ọbụla maọbụ nwa ewu ọbụla e bụ ụzọ mụọ nʼime igwe anụ ụlọ gị ka ị ga-edo nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, ejila nwa mbụ nke ehi gị e buru ụzọ mụọ arụ ọrụ ubi, akpachakwala ajị nwa ewu maọbụ nwa atụrụ ọbụla e buru ụzọ mụọ dị nʼime igwe ewu na atụrụ gị.
20 before Jehovah thy God thou dost eat it year by year, in the place which Jehovah doth choose, thou and thy house.
Gị na ezinaụlọ gị ga-eri anụ ndị a nʼihu Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị afọ ọbụla nʼebe ọ họpụtara.
21 'And when there is in it a blemish, lame, or blind, any evil blemish, thou dost not sacrifice it to Jehovah thy God;
Ma ọ bụrụ na nwa anụ ọbụla e buru ụzọ mụọ nwere nkwarụ, dịka ngwụrọ maọbụ ìsì maọbụ nkwarụ ọbụla nke jọrọ njọ, ị gaghị eji ya achụ aja nye Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị.
22 within thy gates thou dost eat it, the unclean and the clean alike, as the roe, and as the hart.
Kama, ka ọ bụrụ ihe oriri nye ezinaụlọ gị nʼime ụlọ gị. Onye ọbụla, ma ndị dị ọcha ma onye rụrụ arụ nʼoge ahụ ga-eri ya, dịka onye ọbụla pụrụ iri anụ ele maọbụ anụ mgbada.
23 Only, its blood thou dost not eat; on the earth thou dost pour it as water.
Ma erila ọbara ya. Wụsa ya nʼala dịka mmiri.
