Deteronòm 15
1 Chak sètan n'a annile dèt tout moun ki dwe nou, n'a kite lajan an pou yo.
At the end of every seven years you shall make a release.
2 Men ki jan n'a fè l': Tout moun ki te prete yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy li lajan va kite lajan an pou li. Depi lè a rive pou yo annile tout dèt pou Seyè a, li p'ap ka egzije pou lòt la renmèt li lajan an ankò.
And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that lends something to his neighbor shall release it; he shall not exact it of his neighbor, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD’s release.
3 N'a gen dwa egzije pou moun lòt nasyon yo peye nou sa yo dwe nou. Men, nenpòt kisa yon moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou dwe nou, n'a kite l' pou li.
Of a foreigner you may exact it again: but that which is your with your brother your hand shall release;
4 Konsa, p'ap gen moun pòv nan mitan nou, paske Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va beni nou nan peyi l'ap ban nou pou byen eritaj nou an, nan peyi nou pral pran pou nou an.
Save when there shall be no poor among you; for the LORD shall greatly bless you in the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it:
5 Men, se pou nou toujou obeyi Seyè a, se pou nou swiv pwen pa pwen tout kòmandman m'ap ban nou jòdi a.
Only if you carefully listen to the voice of the LORD your God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command you this day.
6 Wi, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va beni nou, jan li te pwomèt nou an, konsa n'a gen lajan pou prete anpil lòt nasyon. Men, nou menm nou p'ap janm bezwen prete nan men pesonn. N'a donminen sou anpil lòt pèp. Men, yo yonn p'ap gen pye sou kou nou.
For the LORD your God blesses you, as he promised you: and you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow; and you shall reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over you.
7 Si ta gen yon pòv nan mitan moun pèp Izrayèl parèy nou yo k'ap viv nan yonn nan lavil nan peyi Seyè a te ban nou an, pa fèmen kè nou, pa refize lonje men bay frè nou ki nan nesesite.
If there be among you a poor man of one of your brothers within any of your gates in your land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not harden your heart, nor shut your hand from your poor brother:
8 Okontrè, se pou nou lonje men ba li, n'a prete l' lajan pou l' achte tou sa li bezwen.
But you shall open your hand wide to him, and shall surely lend him sufficient for his need, in that which he wants.
9 Pa kite ankenn move lide pase nan tèt nou pou nou ta di: Nou toupre setyèm lanne a, lanne pou nou annile dèt tout moun ki dwe nou, epi pou nou fè move jan ak frè parèy nou ki nan nesesite, pou nou derefize prete l' anyen. Paske lè sa a, l'a rele Seyè a, l'a pale l' pou nou, epi n'a gen tò.
Beware that there be not a thought in your wicked heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and your eye be evil against your poor brother, and you give him nothing; and he cry to the LORD against you, and it be sin to you.
10 Non. Se pou nou prete l' epi lè n'ap prete l', se pou ou fè l' ak tout kè ou. Konsa, poutèt sa, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va beni nou nan tout travay nou, nan tou sa n'ap fè.
You shall surely give him, and your heart shall not be grieved when you give to him: because that for this thing the LORD your God shall bless you in all your works, and in all that you put your hand to.
11 Va toujou gen kèk moun nan pèp Izrayèl la k'ap nan nesesite. Se poutèt sa mwen mande nou pou nou aprann louvri men nou bay frè parèy nou ki pòv osinon ki nan nesesite nan peyi nou an.
For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command you, saying, You shall open your hand wide to your brother, to your poor, and to your needy, in your land.
12 Si yon moun menm ras ak nou, kit se gason, kit se fanm, vin vann tèt li ban nou pou li sèvi nou esklav, li va sèvi nou sizan. Lè setyèm lanne a va rive, se pou nou kite l' al fè wout li.
And if your brother, an Hebrew man, or an Hebrew woman, be sold to you, and serve you six years; then in the seventh year you shall let him go free from you.
13 Lè n'ap ranvwaye l' la, pa kite l' ale san nou pa ba li anyen.
And when you send him out free from you, you shall not let him go away empty:
14 Men, n'a fè l' kado nan bèt nou yo, nan rekòt jaden nou, nan diven nou ak lwil nou, ki vle di n'a separe avè l' byen Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te ban nou pou benediksyon.
You shall furnish him liberally out of your flock, and out of your floor, and out of your wine press: of that with which the LORD your God has blessed you you shall give to him.
15 Pa bliye se esklav nou te ye tou nan peyi Lejip la, epi se Seyè a, Bondye nou an, ki te delivre nou. Se poutèt sa mwen ban nou lòd sa a jòdi a.
And you shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God redeemed you: therefore I command you this thing to day.
16 Men, si yon esklav konsa di nou li p'ap kite nou, paske li renmen nou ansanm ak tout moun lakay nou, paske nou aji byen avè l',
And it shall be, if he say to you, I will not go away from you; because he loves you and your house, because he is well with you;
17 lè sa a, n'a pran yon bagay pwenti, n'a fè l' pwoche bò pòt devan lakay nou, n'a pèse zòrèy li. Konsa, l'a rete ap sèvi nou pou tout tan jouk li mouri. N'a fè menm bagay la tou pou fanm ki esklav lakay nou.
Then you shall take an awl, and thrust it through his ear to the door, and he shall be your servant for ever. And also to your maidservant you shall do likewise.
18 Piga nou janm wè sa twò rèd pou nou voye yon esklav tounen lakay li, paske li te sèvi nou pandan sizan pou mwatye pri nou ta peye yon moun k'ap travay pou lajan lakay nou. Se konsa, Seyè a, Bondye nou an, va beni nou nan tou sa n'ap fè.
It shall not seem hard to you, when you send him away free from you; for he has been worth a double hired servant to you, in serving you six years: and the LORD your God shall bless you in all that you do.
19 Tout premye pitit mal fenmèl bèf nou osinon fenmèl mouton nou va fè, n'a mete yo apa pou Bondye, Seyè a. Piga nou janm fè premye ti towo fenmèl bèf nou fè a travay pou nou. Ni nou pa dwe janm taye lenn ki sou premye ti belye mouton fenmèl mouton nou yo fè a.
All the firstling males that come of your herd and of your flock you shall sanctify to the LORD your God: you shall do no work with the firstling of your bullock, nor shear the firstling of your sheep.
20 Chak lanne, nou menm ak tout fanmi nou, n'a manje yo devan Seyè a, kote Seyè a, Bondye nou an, te chwazi a.
You shall eat it before the LORD your God year by year in the place which the LORD shall choose, you and your household.
21 Men, si l'ap bwete, osinon si li pèdi yon je, oswa si li gen nenpòt lòt enfimite ki konsekan, se pa pou nou touye l' pou Seyè a, Bondye nou an.
And if there be any blemish therein, as if it be lame, or blind, or have any ill blemish, you shall not sacrifice it to the LORD your God.
22 N'a manje l' lakay nou, tout moun va manje ladan l', kit yo nan kondisyon pou sèvi Bondye, kit yo pa nan kondisyon pou fè l', menm jan yo konn manje vyann gazèl ak vyann towo bèf.
You shall eat it within your gates: the unclean and the clean person shall eat it alike, as the roebuck, and as the hart.
23 Tansèlman, piga nou manje san l'. Se pou nou vide tout san an atè tankou dlo.
Only you shall not eat the blood thereof; you shall pour it on the ground as water.
