Kanawailua 15
1 I KA pau ana o na makahiki pahiku e kala aku oe i na mea.
At the end of [every] seven years shalt thou make a release.
2 Penei ke ano o ke kala ana'ku: o ka mea nona ka aie, nana e haawi aie i kona hoalauna, oia ke kala aku; mai kii hou aku oia ia mea i kona hoalauna, aole hoi i kona hoahanau; no ka mea, ua oleloia mai, o ko ke Akua kala ana ia.
And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor shall release the loan which he hath lent to his neighbor; he shall not exact it of his neighbor, or of his brother; because the release year in honor of the Lord hath been proclaimed.
3 He pono e kii hou aku oe i ke kanaka e, aka, o kau mea me kou hoahanau, na kou lima ia e kala aku;
Of a foreigner thou mayest exact [payment]; but that which is thine with thy brother shall thy hand release.
4 I mea e ilihune ole ai kekahi mea o oukou; no ka mea, na Iehova oe e hoopomaikai nui mai ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua e haawi mai ai ia oe i wahi e noho ai nou:
Although indeed there should be no needy man among thee; for the Lord will greatly bless thee in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it:
5 I kou manawa wale no e hoolohe pono ai i ka leo o Iehova kou Akua, i ka malama pono i neia mau kauoha a pau a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oe i keia la.
Yet only if thou wilt carefully hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all this commandment which I command thee this day.
6 No ka mea, ke hoopomaikai nei o Iehova kou Akua ia oe, e like me kana olelo ana mai ia oe: e haawi lilo ole aku oe i na lahuikanaka he nui, aole oe e noi wale aku; e noho alii oe maluna o na lahuikanaka he nui, aole hoi lakou e noho alii maluna on.
For the Lord thy God blesseth thee, as he hath spoken unto thee; and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt rule over many nations, but over thee shall they not rule.
7 Ina iwaena o oukou kekahi hoahanau ilihune ou maloko o kekahi o kou mau ipuka ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua e haawi mai ai ia oe, mai hoopaakiki oe i kou naau, aole hoi e aua kou lima no kou hoahanau ilihune:
If there be among thee a needy man, any one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which the Lord thy God giveth thee: thou shalt not harden thy heart, nor shut thy hand from thy needy brother.
8 Aka, e wehe loa oe i kou lima ia ia, a e haawi io aku ia ia i ka mea e pono ai kona nele, ana i hemahema ai.
But thou shalt open wide thy hand unto him, and thou shalt surely lend him sufficient for his need, which his want requireth.
9 E ao, o kupu mai ka manao iloko o kou naau ino, e i iho ana, Ua kokoke mai nei ka hiku o ka makahiki, ka makahiki e hookala aku ai; a nana ino aku kou maka i kou hoahanau ilihune, a haawi ole aku oe nana; a e kahea aku oia ia Iehova nou, a e lilo ia i hewa nou.
Beware that there be not a wicked thought in thy heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thy eye be thus evil against thy needy brother, so that thou wouldst give him nought; and if he cry concerning thee unto the Lord, it will be sin in thee:
10 E oiaio no, e haawi aku oe nana, aole e minamina kou naau i kou haawi ana'ku nana: no ka mea, oia ka mea e hoopomaikai mai ai o Iehova kou Akua ia oe ma kau hana ana a pau, a ma na mea a pau a kou lima e lawe ai.
Thou shalt surely give him, and thy heart shall not be grieved when thou givest unto him; for because of this thing the Lord thy God will bless thee in all thy work, and in all the acquisition of thy hand.
11 No ka mea, aole e pau ka poe ilihune ma ka honua; nolaila, ke kauoha aku nei au ia oe, i ka i ana'ku, E wehe loa oe i kou lima i kou hoahanau, i kou poe ilihune, a me kou poe nele ma kou aina.
For the needy will not cease out of the land; therefore do I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open wide thy hand unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.
12 Ina paha e kuaiia mai nou kou hoahanau, he kanaka Hebera. he wahine Hebera paha, a e hookauwa mai oia nau i na makahiki eono; a o ka hiku o ka makahiki e hookuu aku oe ia ia mai ou aku la.
If thy brother, the Hebrew, or a Hebrew woman, be sold unto thee, he shall serve thee six years; and in the seventh year shalt thou let him go free from thee.
13 A i hookuu aku oe ia ia mai ou aku la, mai hookuu wale aku oe ia ia.
And when thou lettest him go out free from thee, thou shalt not let him go away empty:
14 E hoolako oe ia ia i kekahi o kau poe hipa, a me kau palaoa, a me kau waina: i ka mea a Iehova kou Akua, i hoopomaikai ai ia oe, e haawi aku ia ia.
Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flocks, and out of thy threshing-floor, and out of thy wine-press; wherewith the Lord thy God hath blessed thee, that shalt thou give unto him.
15 A e hoomanao hoi oe, he kauwa no oe ma ka aina o Aigupita, a na Iehova na kou Akua oe i hoopakele: nolaila e kauoha aku nei au ia oe ia mea i keia la.
And thou shalt remember that thou hast been a bond-man in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord thy God hath redeemed thee; therefore do I command thee this thing today.
16 Ina paha e olelo oia ia oe, Aole au makemake e hele mai ou aku la, no kona aloha ia oe a me kou ohua, a no kona pomaikai ia oe;
And it shall be, if he say unto thee, I will not go away from thee; because he loveth thee and thy house, because he is well with thee:
17 Alaila e lalau oe i ke kui, a hou aku i kona pepeiao a ma ka puka, a e lilo ia i kauwa mau nau: a pela oe e hana aku ai i kau kauwawahine.
Then shalt thou take an awl, and thrust it through his ear unto the door, and he shall be unto thee a servant for ever; and also unto thy maid-servant shalt thou do likewise.
18 Mai minamina oe i kou hookuu aku ia ia mai ou aku la; no ka mea, ua oi aku kona pono ia oe, i ko na kauwa hoolimalima elua, i kona malama ana ia oe i na makahiki eono: a e hoopomaikai o Iehova kou Akua ia oe i na mea a pau au e hana'i.
It shall not seem hard unto thee, when thou sendest him away free from thee, that for double the wages of a hired laborer hath he served thee six years; and the Lord thy God will bless thee in all that thou doest.
19 O na hanau mua a pau o kau poe bipi, a me kau poe hipa e hoolaa oe no Iehova kou Akua; mai hoohana oe i ka hanau mua o kau bipi, aole hoi e ako i ka hulu o kau hipa hanau mua.
All the first-born males that come of thy herds and of thy flocks shalt thou sanctify unto the Lord thy God: thou shalt do no work with the first-born of thy bullock, and not shear the first-born of thy sheep.
20 Imua o Iehova kou Akua e ai ai oe ia mea ma kahi a Iehova e wae ai, o oe a me kou ohua.
Before the Lord thy God shalt thou eat it year by year, in the place which the Lord will choose, thou with thy household.
21 Ina paha he wahi kina o ia mea, he oopa paha, he makapo paha, a he wahi mea kina iki, mai kaumaha aku oe ia mea ia Iehova kou Akua.
And if there be any blemish thereon, if it be lame, or blind, or have any [other] ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto the Lord thy God.
22 E ai oe ia mea iloko o kou mau ipuka: o ke kanaka haumia, a me ke kanaka maemae e ai no, e like me ke gazela, a me ka dea hihiu.
Within thy gates shalt thou eat it, the unclean and the clean together, as the roebuck, and as the hart.
23 Aole nae oe e ai i ke koko o ia mea; e ninini oe ia mea ma ka honua e like me ka wai.
Only the blood thereof shalt thou not eat: upon the ground shalt thou pour it out as water.
