Levitik 25
1 Alò, SENYÈ a te pale a Moïse. Li te di:
And the LORD spoke to Moses in mount Sinai, saying,
2 “Pale a fis Israël yo pou di yo: ‘Lè nou vini nan peyi ke Mwen va bannou an, alò, tè a va gen yon Saba pou SENYÈ a.
Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, When you come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath to the LORD.
3 Pandan sis ane, nou va plante chan nou yo, e pandan sis ane, nou va netwaye chan rezen an e rasanble pou fè rekòlt li,
Six years you shall sow your field, and six years you shall prune your vineyard, and gather in the fruit thereof;
4 men pandan setyèm ane a, tè a va gen yon repo Saba, yon Saba pou SENYÈ a. Nou p ap ni plante chan an ni netwaye chan rezen an.
But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest to the land, a sabbath for the LORD: you shall neither sow your field, nor prune your vineyard.
5 Donn nan chan ki grandi pa aza konsa a, nou pa pou rekòlte li, e rezen nou yo ki parèt sou branch ki pa t taye yo, nou pa pou ranmase yo. Tè a va gen yon ane Saba.
That which grows of its own accord of your harvest you shall not reap, neither gather the grapes of your vine undressed: for it is a year of rest to the land.
6 Konsa, nou tout va gen pwodwi Saba nan peyi a kòm manje nou; nou menm, esklav yo, ni mal ni femèl, anplwaye nou yo, etranje ki rezidan pami nou yo, sila ki viv tankou moun lòt nasyon pami nou yo.
And the sabbath of the land shall be meat for you; for you, and for your servant, and for your maid, and for your hired servant, and for your stranger that sojourns with you.
7 Menm bèf nou yo avèk bèt ki nan peyi a va gen tout pwodwi li kòm manje.
And for your cattle, and for the beast that are in your land, shall all the increase thereof be meat.
8 “‘Nou dwe osi kontwole sèt Saba pa lane yo pou nou menm; sèt fwa sèt ane, jiskaske nou kontwole tan ke sèt Saba nan Saba ekoule yo; otreman, karant-nèf ane.
And you shall number seven sabbaths of years to you, seven times seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall be to you forty and nine years.
9 Alò, lè lè sa a rive nou va sone kòn belye a toupatou nan dizyèm jou nan setyèm mwa a. Nan jou ekspiyasyon an, nou va sone yon kòn toupatou nan peyi a.
Then shall you cause the trumpet of the jubilee to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall you make the trumpet sound throughout all your land.
10 Se konsa, nou va konsakre senkantyèm ane a e pwoklame remisyon toupatou nan peyi a, a tout abitan li yo. Li va yon jibile pou nou, e nou chak va retounen nan pwòp teren pa nou ak pwòp fanmi pa nou.
And you shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land to all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubilee to you; and you shall return every man to his possession, and you shall return every man to his family.
11 Nou va gen senkantyèm ane a kòm yon ane jibile. Nou pa pou plante, ni rekòlte sa ki grandi konsa nan tè, ni ranmase fwi ki sòti nan branch ki pa t netwaye yo.
A jubilee shall that fiftieth year be to you: you shall not sow, neither reap that which grows of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of your vine undressed.
12 Paske se yon jibile; li va sen pou nou. Nou va manje pwodwi li ki sòti nan chan an.
For it is the jubilee; it shall be holy to you: you shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.
13 “‘Nan ane jibile sila a, nou chak va retounen nan pwòp tè pa nou.
In the year of this jubilee you shall return every man to his possession.
14 “‘Anplis, si nou fè lavant bay zanmi nou, oswa achte nan men zanmi nou, nou pa pou fè tò a youn lòt.
And if you sell something to your neighbor, or buy something of your neighbor’s hand, you shall not oppress one another:
15 Konsènan nonb ane apre jibile yo, konsa, nou va achte nan men zanmi nou. Li dwe vann nou selon nonb ane rekòlt yo ki rete.
According to the number of years after the jubilee you shall buy of your neighbor, and according to the number of years of the fruits he shall sell to you:
16 Nan menm fòs ane ki rete yo, nou va ogmante pri a, e nan menm fòs ane ki manke yo, nou va redwi pri a, paske li se fòs rekòlt ki rete ke l ap vann ou an.
According to the multitude of years you shall increase the price thereof, and according to the fewness of years you shall diminish the price of it: for according to the number of the years of the fruits does he sell to you.
17 Konsa, pinga nou fè tò a youn lòt, men nou va krent Bondye nou an; paske Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an.
You shall not therefore oppress one another; but you shall fear your God: for I am the LORD your God.
18 “‘Se konsa ke nou va obsève règleman Mwen yo e kenbe jijman Mwen yo, pou akonpli yo, pou nou kapab viv an sekirite sou tè a.
Why you shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; and you shall dwell in the land in safety.
19 “‘Konsa, tè a va donnen pwodwi li pou nou kapab manje vant plen, e viv an sekirite sou tè a.’”
And the land shall yield her fruit, and you shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.
20 “Men si nou ta di: ‘Kisa n ap manje nan setyèm ane a si nou pa ni plante ni rekòlte rekòlt nou yo? Gade byen, nou pa p semen, ni rasanble pwodwi nou;’
And if you shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase:
21 alò, Mwen va tèlman regle benediksyon Mwen yo pou nou nan sizyèm ane a, pou li kab pote yon rekòlt twazan.
Then I will command my blessing on you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for three years.
22 Lè nou ap plante nan uityèm ane a, nou kapab toujou manje ansyen bagay a rekòlt yo, e nou va kontinye manje vye a jis rive nan nevyèm ane a lè rekòlt pa li kòmanse antre a.
And you shall sow the eighth year, and eat yet of old fruit until the ninth year; until her fruits come in you shall eat of the old store.
23 “Tè a, anplis, pa pou vann nèt, paske tè a se pa M; paske nou se sèlman etranje k ap demere avè M.
The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine, for you are strangers and sojourners with me.
24 Konsa, nan chak mòso tè ke nou posede, fòk nou fè pwovizyon pou peye ranson tè a.
And in all the land of your possession you shall grant a redemption for the land.
25 “Si yon moun peyi parèy nou an vin tèlman pòv ke li oblije vann yon pati nan tè li a, alò, se fanmi pi pre li a ki dwe peye ranson ke manm fanmi li te vann nan.
If your brother be waxen poor, and has sold away some of his possession, and if any of his kin come to redeem it, then shall he redeem that which his brother sold.
26 Oswa nan ka a yon moun ki pa gen fanmi, men ki tèlman regle zafè li pou twouve ase mwayen pou peye ranson an,
And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be able to redeem it;
27 alò, li va kalkile ane yo soti lè li te vann nan, e remèt fòs balans sa a moun ke li te vann li an. Konsa li va retounen vin pwòp teren pa l.
Then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and restore the remainder to the man to whom he sold it; that he may return to his possession.
28 Men si li poko twouve ase mwayen pou reprann li pou kont li, alò, sa ke li te vann nan, va rete nan men a sila ki achte li a jis rive nan ane jibile a. Men nan jibile a, li va libere, pou li kapab retounen kon pwòp tè pa li.
But if he be not able to restore it to him, then that which is sold shall remain in the hand of him that has bought it until the year of jubilee: and in the jubilee it shall go out, and he shall return to his possession.
29 “Menm jan an, si yon mesye vann yon kay nan yon vil ki antoure avèk miray, alò, dwa pou peye ranson pa l la va dire pou tout 1 nan.
And if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; within a full year may he redeem it.
30 Men si li pa peye ranson li an nan 1 nan ki ekoule a, alò, kay ki nan vil antoure avèk miray la va pase nèt bay sila ki te achte li pou tout jenerasyon li yo. Li p ap remèt nan jibile a.
And if it be not redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city shall be established for ever to him that bought it throughout his generations: it shall not go out in the jubilee.
31 Men kay nan vil ki pa antoure avèk miray yo va konsidere kòm chan ouvri; yo gen dwa peye ranson an e yo va remèt nan jibile a.
But the houses of the villages which have no wall round about them shall be counted as the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubilee.
32 “Men nan vil ki pou Levit yo, Levit yo gen yon dwa pèmanan pou peye ranson nan vil ki se posesyon pa yo.
Notwithstanding the cities of the Levites, and the houses of the cities of their possession, may the Levites redeem at any time.
33 Konsa, sa ki pou Levit yo kapab peye ranson e yon vant kay nan vil posesyon sila a va remèt nan jibile a. Paske vil Levit yo se posesyon pa yo pami fis Israël yo.
And if a man purchase of the Levites, then the house that was sold, and the city of his possession, shall go out in the year of jubilee: for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.
34 Men chan pou bèt nan vil pa yo pa pou vann, paske sa se posesyon pa yo pou tout tan.
But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not be sold; for it is their perpetual possession.
35 “Alò, nan ka ke yon moun peyi nou an vin pòv e zafè li vin gate, alò, nou gen pou bay li soutyen. Li va viv tankou etranje, oswa yon moun k ap demere, pou li kapab toujou rete pami nou.
And if your brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay with you; then you shall relieve him: yes, though he be a stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with you.
36 Pa pran enterè ni avantaj sou li, men onore Bondye ou a pou li kapab viv avèk ou.
Take you no usury of him, or increase: but fear your God; that your brother may live with you.
37 Ou pa pou bay li lajan ou avèk enterè, ni manje ou pou fè pwofi.
You shall not give him your money on usury, nor lend him your victuals for increase.
38 Mwen se SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an ki te fè nou sòti nan peyi Égypte la pou bannou peyi Canaan an pou M kapab Bondye nou.
I am the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.
39 “Si yon moun peyi parèy nou vin tèlman pòv pami nou menm, e li vin vann tèt li bannou, nou pa pou desann li nan sèvis esklavaj.
And if your brother that dwells by you be waxen poor, and be sold to you; you shall not compel him to serve as a bondservant:
40 Li va rete avèk nou kòm yon jounalye, menm kòm yon demere. Li va sèvi avèk nou jis rive nan ane jibile a.
But as an hired servant, and as a sojourner, he shall be with you, and shall serve you to the year of jubilee.
41 Konsa li va sòti de nou menm, li menm avèk fis li yo avè l, e li va retounen vè fanmi li, pou li kapab retounen nan teren zansèt li yo.
And then shall he depart from you, both he and his children with him, and shall return to his own family, and to the possession of his fathers shall he return.
42 Paske yo se sèvitè Mwen ke Mwen te mennen sòti nan peyi Égypte la. Yo pa pou vann kon vant esklav la.
For they are my servants, which I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as slaves.
43 Nou pa pou domine li avèk severite, men onore Bondye nou an.
You shall not rule over him with rigor; but shall fear your God.
44 “Selon esklav, mal ak femèl ke petèt nou kapab gen, —-nou kapab jwenn esklav mal ak femèl nan nasyon payen ki antoure nou yo.
Both your slaves, and your bondmaids, which you shall have, shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall you buy slaves and bondmaids.
45 Alò, osi, se soti nan fis a demere k ap viv pami nou yo, ke nou kapab vin genyen yo, e ladann nan fanmi pa yo ki avèk nou, ke yo va gen tan pwodwi nan peyi nou; yo menm osi kapab devni posesyon pa nou.
Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall you buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.
46 Nou kapab menm sede a fis apre nou yo, pou resevwa yo kòm yon posesyon. Nou kapab sèvi yo kòm esklav pou tout tan. Men pou moun peyi nou an, nou pa pou domine avèk severite youn sou lòt.
And you shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your slaves for ever: but over your brothers the children of Israel, you shall not rule one over another with rigor.
47 “Alò, si mwayen a yon etranje, oswa yon demere avèk nou vin rich, e yon moun peyi parèy a nou an vin tèlman pòv ke li vin vann tèt li bay yon etranje ki demere pami nou, oswa desandan a yon fanmi etranje,
And if a sojourner or stranger wax rich by you, and your brother that dwells by him wax poor, and sell himself to the stranger or sojourner by you, or to the stock of the stranger’s family:
48 alò, li va gen dwa peye ranson nan moman li fenk vann nan. Youn nan frè li yo kapab peye ranson li an,
After that he is sold he may be redeemed again; one of his brothers may redeem him:
49 oswa tonton li, oswa fis tonton li, kapab peye ranson li an, oswa si li vin pwospere, li kapab peye ranson an pou pwòp tèt li.
Either his uncle, or his uncle’s son, may redeem him, or any that is near of kin to him of his family may redeem him; or if he be able, he may redeem himself.
50 Konsa, li menm avèk sila ki te achte li a, va kalkile ansanm soti nan ane ke li te vann tèt li bay li menm nan jis pou rive nan jibile a. Pri lavant li an va koresponn a nonb ane ke li te avèk li yo. Se tankou jou a yon jounalye ke li va avèk li.
And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he was sold to him to the year of jubilee: and the price of his sale shall be according to the number of years, according to the time of an hired servant shall it be with him.
51 Si gen toujou anpil ane, li va remèt yon pati nan pri lavant lan pou kouvri yo pou peye pwòp ranson pa li.
If there be yet many years behind, according to them he shall give again the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for.
52 Si se pa anpil ane ki rete pou rive nan ane jibile a, li va kalkile sa avèk li. Selon ane ki rete yo li va remèt menm fòs la pou pri ranson an.
And if there remain but few years to the year of jubilee, then he shall count with him, and according to his years shall he give him again the price of his redemption.
53 Menm tankou yon ouvriye ki anplwaye ane pa ane li va konsa avèk li. Li p ap domine sou li avèk severite devan zye nou.
And as a yearly hired servant shall he be with him: and the other shall not rule with rigor over him in your sight.
54 “Menm si li pa peye ranson an pa mwayen sila yo, li va toujou sòti nan ane jibile a, li menm avèk fis li yo avè l.
And if he be not redeemed in these years, then he shall go out in the year of jubilee, both he, and his children with him.
55 Paske fis Israël yo se sèvitè Mwen; yo se sèvitè Mwen ke M te mennen fè sòti nan peyi Égypte yo. Mwen se Senyè a, Bondye nou an.
For to me the children of Israel are servants; they are my servants whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
