Leviticus 25

1 LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sel Moses fin eol Sinai ac sap elan

And the Lord spoke to Moses in the mount Sina, saying,

2 sang oakwuk inge nu sin mwet Israel. “Pacl se kowos utyak nu in facl se su LEUM GOD El ac sot nu suwos, kowos fah akfulatye LEUM GOD ke kowos tia yoki facl sac ke yac akitkosr nukewa.

Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, Whenever you shall have entered into the land, which I give to you, then the land shall rest which I give to you, for its sabbaths to the Lord.

3 Kowos fah yukwi ima lowos, aknasnasye lah ke grape sunowos, ac kosrani fahko kac ke yac onkosr.

Six years you shall sow your field, and six years you shall prune your vine, and gather in its fruit.

4 Tusruktu yac se akitkosr ac fah yac in na mongla se nu ke facl sac, sie yac su kisayang nu sin LEUM GOD. Nimet kowos yukwi ima lowos ku aknasnasye lah in grape sunowos an.

But in the seventh year [shall be] a sabbath, it shall be a rest to the land, a sabbath to the Lord: you shall not sow your field, and you shall not prune your vine.

5 Kowos fah tia pacna kosrani wheat ma sifacna kapak, ac tia sifani fahko ke grape sunowos ma kowos tia aknasnasye ah. Yac in na mongla se lun acn nukewa in facl sac pa inge.

And you shall not gather the spontaneous produce of your field, and you shall not gather fully the grapes of your dedication: it shall be a year of rest to the land.

6 Acn uh finne tia imaiyuk ke pulan yac sacn, ac srakna ku in asot mwe mongo nowos ac nun mwet foko lowos, ac mwet kowos moli in orekma lowos, ac mwetsac su muta inmasrlowos,

And the sabbaths of the land shall be food for you, and for your man-servant, and for your maidservant, and your hireling, and the stranger that abides with you.

7 oayapa kosro muna nutuwos, ac kosro lemnak su muta inimae. Ma nukewa ma kap ke facl sac fah ku in mongo.

And for your cattle, and for the wild beats that are in your land, shall every fruit of it be for food.

8 “Oakla yac itkosr pacl itkosr, pa toeni orala yac angngaul eu.

And you shall reckon to yourself seven sabbaths of years, seven times seven years; and they shall be to you seven weeks of years, nine and forty years.

9 Na in len se aksingoul ke malem se akitkosr, su Len in Eela Ma Koluk, kowos supwala sie mwet in ukya sie mwe ukuk ke el fahsr sasla fin acn sac nufon.

In the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall make a proclamation with the sound of a trumpet in all your land; on the day of atonement you shall make a proclamation with a trumpet in all your land.

10 In ouiya se inge kowos fah srela yac se aklumngaul, ac sulkakin mu ac sie pacl in sukosok nu sin mwet nukewa su muta in fahl sac. Ke yac se inge acn nukewa su tuh kukakinyukla fah folokyang nu sin mwet su la acn inge meet, ku nu sin fwil natul, ac kutena mwet su tuh kukakinyukla in mwet kohs, fah folokla nu yurin sou lal.

And you shall sanctify the year, the fifties year, and you shall proclaim a release upon the land to all that inhabit it; it shall be given a year of release, a jubilee for you; and each one shall depart to his possession, and you shall go each to his family.

11 Kowos fah tia yukwi ima lowos, ku telani fahko ma sifacna kapak, ku sifani fahko ke ima in grape lowos ma tia kifwiyukla.

This is a jubilee of release, the year shall be to you the fifties year: you shall not sow, nor reap the produce that comes of itself from the land, neither shall you gather its dedicated fruits.

12 Yac nufon sac ac fah mutal nu suwos; kowos fah mongo na ke ma sifacna kapak in ima lowos.

For it is a jubilee of release; it shall be holy to you, you shall eat its fruits off the fields.

13 “Ke yac se inge acn nukewa ma kukakinyukla fah folokyang nu sin mwet la meet ah.

In the year of the release [even] the jubilee of it, shall [each] one return to his possession.

14 Ke ma inge, kowos fin kukakin acn lowos nu sin mwet Israel wiowos, ku moul acn selos, nik kowos orek inkanek kutasrik.

And if you should sell a possession to your neighbour, or if you should buy of your neighbour, let not a man oppress his neighbour.

15 Molin acn sacn ac fah oakwuk fal nu ke pisen yac ma acn sacn ac ku in oswe fahko meet liki Yac in Folokyang se tok ah.

According to the number of years after the jubilee shall you buy of your neighbour, according to the number of years of the fruits shall he sell to you.

16 Fin ac yac pus, molo an enenu in yohk, ac fin yac na pu, na molo an enenu in srik, mweyen ma ac kukakinyukla uh ac wiwi pisa ku lupan fahko ma ac tuku ke acn sac.

According as [there may be] a greater number of years he shall increase [the value of] his possession, and according as [there may be] a less number of years he shall lessen [the value of] his possession; for according to the number of his crops, so shall he sell to you.

17 Nimet orek kutasrik nu sin mwet Israel wiowos, a kowos in akos LEUM GOD lowos.

Let not a man oppress his neighbour, and you shall fear the Lord your God: I am the Lord your God.

18 “Akos ma sap ac ma oakwuk nukewa lun LEUM GOD, tuh kowos fah ku in muta in misla fin facl se inge.

And you shall keep all my ordinances, and all my judgements; and do you observe them, and you shall keep them, and dwell securely in the land.

19 Facl se inge ac fah isus fahko, ac kowos fah mutana in mut ac wangin fosrnga lowos.

And the land shall yield her increase, and you shall eat to fullness, and shall dwell securely in it.

20 “Tusruktu, sahp ac oasr mwet fah siyuk lah mea ac mongo ke yac se akitkosr, ke wangin ma ac yoki ac wangin fahko sifeyukyak.

And if you should say, What shall we eat in this seventh year, if we do not sow nor gather in our fruits?

21 LEUM GOD El ac fah akinsewowoye acn uh ke yac se akonkosr, tuh ima lowos fah oswe mwe mongo ma ac fal nu ke yac tolu.

Then will I send my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and the land shall produce its fruits for three years.

22 Ke kowos yukwi ima lowos ke yac se akoalkosr, kowos ac srakna kang mwe mongo ma lula ke ma kowos sifani ke yac se akonkosr ah, su ac fal nu suwos in mongo kac nwe ke kowos kosrani ma kowos yukwi ke yac sacn.

And you shall sow in the eighth year, and eat old fruits till the ninth year: until its fruit come, you shall eat old fruits of the old.

23 “Acn lowos fah tiana kukakinyukla in tuh lun sie mwet nwe tok, mweyen tia ma lowos — ma lun God, ac kowos oana mwetsac su ma filfilyang in orekmakin acn uh.

And the land shall not be sold for a permanence; for the land is mine, because you are strangers and sojourners before me.

24 “Ke pacl se kukakinyukla sie acn uh, enenu in akilenyuk lah oasr suwohs lun mwet se ma la acn sac meet in sifilpa molela.

And in every land of your possession, you shall allow ransoms for the land.

25 Fin sie mwet Israel sukasrupla tuh pwanang elan kukakunla acn lal uh, ac enenu in mwet se ma fototo oemeet nu sel in sou lal pa in molela uh.

And if your brother who is with you be poor, and should have sold [part] of his possession, and his kinsman who is near to him come, then he shall redeem the possession which his brother has sold.

26 Mwet se ma wangin sou lal in sifil moli acn sac, sahp ac tok oasri ma lal ac el ku in sifacna sifilpa molela.

And if one have no near kinsman, and he prosper with his hand, and he find sufficient money, [even] his ransom;

27 Fin ouinge, el enenu in moli nu sin mwet se ma tuh molela acn sac ke sie lupa ma ac fal nu ke lusen pacl lula nu ke Yac in Folokyang se tok uh, mweyen pa inge pacl se acn sac ac nuna folokyang nu sel.

then shall he calculate the years of his sale, and he shall give what is due to the man to whom he sold it, and he shall return to his possession.

28 Tusruktu fin tia fal lupan mani yorol in sifil molela acn sac, na ac oanna ye karinginyuk lun mwet se ma molela sel ah nwe ke sun Yac in Folokyang se tok uh. Ke pacl sacn ac fah folokyang nu sin mwet se la acn sac meet ah.

But if his hand have not prospered sufficiently, so as that he should restore the money to him, then he that bought the possessions shall have them till the sixth year of the release; and it shall go out in the release, and the owner shall return to his possession.

29 “Sie mwet fin kukakin lohm sel in sie siti ma kalkalak, oasr suwohs lal in sifilpa molela ke yac fon se tukun len se kukala uh.

And if any one should sell an inhabited house in a walled city, then there shall be the ransom of it, until [the time] is fulfilled: its time of ransom shall be a full year.

30 Tusruktu el fin tia sifilpa molela ke yac sac, ac wanginla suwohs lal in sifil moli, na lohm sac ac ma lac sin mwet se ma molela uh, ku fwil natul nwe tok. Na ac fah tia folokyang nu sin mwet se meet ah ke Yac in Folokyang sac.

And if it be not ransomed until there be completed of its time a full year, the house which is in the walled city shall be surely confirmed to him that bought it, throughout his generations; and it shall not go out in the release.

31 Tusruktu lohm ma oan ke inkul ma tia kalkalak uh ac fah orek oana ima uh — mwet se ma la na pwaye meet ah, oasr suwohs lal in sifil molela, ac enenu in folokyang nu sel ke Yac in Folokyang.

But the houses in the villages which have not a wall round about them, shall be reckoned as the fields of the country: they shall always be redeemable, and they shall go out in the release.

32 Tusruktu, oasr suwohs lun mwet Levi in sifil molela lohm selos ke siti ma srisrngiyuki elos in muta we, ke kutena pacl.

And the cities of the Levites, the houses of the cities in their possession, shall be always redeemable to the Levites.

33 Fin sie lohm in siti inge tuh kukakinyukla sin sie mwet Levi ac el tia sifil molela, na ac enenu in folokyang nu sel ke Yac in Folokyang sac, mweyen lohm sin mwet Levi ma oan in siti selos uh ac ma na selos nwe tok.

And if any one shall redeem a house of the Levites, then shall their sale of the houses of their possession go out in the release; because the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession in the midst of the children of Israel.

34 Tusruktu acn in ima ma oan raunla siti lun mwet Levi, ac fah tiana kukakinyuk. Acn inge ma na selos nwe tok.

And the lands set apart for their cities shall not be sold, because this is their perpetual possession.

35 “Sie mwet Israel wiom su muta apkuran nu yurum fin sukasrupla ac tia ku in konauk inkanek in kasru nu sel, kom fah sang kasru nu sel oana ke kom oru nu sin mwet su kom moli in orekma lom, tuh el fah ku in mutana apkuran nu yurum.

And if your brother who is with you become poor, and he fail in resources with you, you shall help him as a stranger and a sojourner, and your brother shall live with you.

36 Nik kom eis kutena ma laesla sel, a akos God, ac lela mwet Israel wiom in mutana apkuran nu yurum.

You shall not receive from him interest, nor increase: and you shall fear your God: I [am] the Lord: and your brother shall live with you.

37 Nimet kom oru elan moli ma ac laesla lupan mani ma kom kasrel kac, ac nimet orek kapak ke mwe mongo ma kom kukakin nu sel.

You shall not lend your money to him at interest, and you shall not lend your meat to him to be returned with increase.

38 Pa inge ma LEUM GOD lowos El sapkin, El su uskowosme liki facl Egypt in tuh sot facl Canaan lowos, ac in tuh God lowos.

I [am] the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Chanaan, so as to be your God.

39 “Sie sin mwet Israel wiom su muta apkuran nu yurum fin sukasrupla ac sifacna kukakunulot nu sum oana sie mwet foko, kom fah tia sang elan oru orekma lun sie mwet kohs.

And if your brother by you be lowered, and be sold to you, he shall not serve you with the servitude of a slave.

40 El fah muta yurum oana sie mwet kom moli nu se, ac kulansap nu sum nwe ke sun Yac in Folokyang se tok uh.

He shall be with you as a hireling or a sojourner, he shall work for you till the year of release:

41 In pacl sac, el ac tulik natul fah som liki kom, ac folokla nu yurin sou lal ac nu ke acn sin mwet matu lal su somla.

and he shall go out in the release, and his children with him; and he shall go to his family, he shall hasten back to his patrimony.

42 Mwet Israel elos mwet kohs nu sin LEUM GOD, ac El usalosme liki facl Egypt. Elos fah tia kukakinyuk nu ke mwet kohs.

Because these are my servants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt; such an one shall not be sold as a [common] servant.

43 Nimet kom oru upa nu selos, a kom in akos God lom.

You shall not oppress him with labour, and shall fear the Lord your God.

44 Kom fin enenu mwet foko, kom ku in moli sin mutanfahl ma raunikomla.

And whatever number of menservants and maidservants you shall have, you shall purchase male and female servants from the nations that are round about you.

45 Kom ku pac in moli tulik nutin mwetsac su muta inmasrlowos. Tulik inge ma isusla in facl suwos elos ku in ma lowosla,

And of the sons of the sojourners that are amongst you, of these you shall buy and of their relations, all that shall be in your lands; let them be to you for a possession.

46 ac kom ku in eisalosyang in mwe usru nu sin tulik mukul nutum, su elos ac kulansupu ke lusen moul lalos nufon. A kom fah tiana oru in upa nu sin kutena mwet Israel wiom.

And you shall distribute them to your children after you, and they shall be to you permanent possessions for ever: but of your brethren the children of Israel, one shall not oppress his brother in labours.

47 “Fin fahsr nwe sie mwetsac su muta yurum el ekla sie mwet kasrup, ac sie mwet Israel wiom el sukasrupla ac sifacna kukakunulang tuh elan mwet foko nu sin mwetsac sac, ku nu sin sou lun mwetsac sac,

And if a stranger or sojourner with you wax rich, and your brother in distress be sold to the stranger or the sojourner that is with you, or to a proselyte by extraction;

48 srakna oasr suwohs lun mwet Israel sac in sifilpa moliyukla el tukun kukala el uh. Sie sin tamulel lal,

after he is sold to him there shall be redemption for him, one of his brethren shall redeem him.

49 ku mukul wien papa ku nina kial, ku mwet nutin tamulel ku tamtael lun papa ku nina kial, ku sie pacna su sou fototo lal, ku in sifil molella. Ku el sifacna, fin oasri mani lal ma ac fal in molella, el ku in sifacna molella elan sukosokla.

A brother of his father, or a son of his father's brother shall redeem him; or let one of his near kin of his tribe redeem him, and if he should be rich and redeem himself,

50 El enenu in aetuila nu sin mwet se ma molella ah, ac eltal fah oakla pisen yac ma el kukakunulla sifacna kac me nu ke Yac in Folokyang se tok uh, ac oaki molin sukosokla lal fal nu ke lupan moul ma orekmakinyuk nu sin mwet ma orekma ac moul nu se.

then shall he calculate with his purchaser from the year that he sold himself to him until the year of release: and the money of his purchase shall be as that of a hireling, he shall be with him from year to year.

51 “Fin srakna pus yac lula uh, molin sukosokla lal uh ac fah oekyuk fal nu ke pisen yac lula, na pisa se inge ac fah folokinyuk nu sin mwet se ma molella ah.

And if any have a greater number of years [than enough], according to these he shall pay his ransom out of his purchase-money.

52 A fin yac na pu pa lula nu ke Yac in Folokyang se tok uh, el fah akfalye molin sukosokla lal uh fal nu ke molin yac lula inge,

And if but a little time be left of the years to the year of release, then shall he reckon to him according to his years, and shall pay his ransom

53 oana ke el fin orekma ac moul nu sel ke oakwuk lun molin yac. Leum se ma el orekma nu se uh fah tia oru in upala nu sel.

as a hireling; he shall be with him from year to year; you shall not oppress him with labour before you.

54 El fin tiana aksukosokyeyukla ke kutena sin ouiya inge, na el, ac tulik natul, fah aksukosokyeyukla ke Yac in Folokyang se tok uh.

And if he do not pay his ransom accordingly, he shall go out in the year of his release, he and his children with him.

55 Sie mwet Israel tia ku in orekma in mwet kohs nwe tok, mweyen mwet Israel elos mwet kulansap nu sin LEUM GOD. El usalosme liki facl Egypt. El pa LEUM GOD lalos.”

For the children of Israel are my servants: they are my attendants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt.
