Ekyamateeka Olwokubiri 15
1 Ku buli nkomerero y’omwaka ogw’omusanvu, amabanja gonna onoogasonyiwanga.
At the end of every seven years you shall make a release.
2 Okusonyiwa okwo kunaabeeranga bwe kuti: buli muntu eyawola munne ebbanja, anaasazangamu ebbanja eryo lye yamuwola. Temubanjanga Bayisirayiri bannammwe, kubanga ebiro Mukama by’anaabanga ataddewo eby’okusonyiwagana amabanja binaabanga bimaze okulangirirwa.
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 Onooyinzanga okubanja munnaggwanga akusasule, naye ebbanja muganda wo ly’akulinako onoolimusonyiwanga.
Of a foreigner you may exact it again: but that which is your with your brother your hand shall release;
4 Naye tewaabeerengawo mwavu mu mmwe kubanga ng’otuuse mu nsi Mukama Katonda wo gy’akuwa okugyefunira ng’obutaka bwo obw’enkalakkalira n’akuyiwangako emikisa gye emingi,
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 kasita onoogonderanga ddala Mukama Katonda wo, n’ogoberera n’obwegendereza ebiragiro bino byonna bye nkuwa leero.
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 Kubanga Mukama Katonda wo agenda kukuyiwako emikisa gye nga bwe yakusuubiza. Amawanga mangi onoogawolanga naye ggwe tojjanga kugeewolako. Onoofuganga amawanga mangi, naye go tegaakufugenga.
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 Bw’onoobanga oli mu bibuga by’omu nsi Mukama Katonda wo gy’akuwa, mu mmwe bwe munaabangamu munno omwavu ali mu kwetaaga tokakanyazanga mutima gwo wadde okukodowaliranga muganda wo oyo omwavu.
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 Omwanjululizanga engalo zo, n’omuwolanga n’okwagala kyonna ky’anaabanga yeetaaga okumuwewulako obuzibu bwe.
But you shall open your hand wide to him, and shall surely lend him sufficient for his need, in that which he wants.
9 Weekuumenga nnyo olemenga kubeeranga na ndowooza eno embi mu mutima gwo nti, “Omwaka ogw’omusanvu ogw’okusonyiwa amabanja gusembedde,” muganda wo n’omukwatirwa ettima n’otobaako ky’omuwa. Muganda wo ayinza okujulira eri Mukama n’osangibwanga ng’ogudde mu kibi.
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 Muwenga n’okwagala n’obutajuliriranga, kubanga olw’omwoyo ng’ogwo, Mukama Katonda wo ajjanga kukuwanga omukisa mu mirimu gyo gyonna, ne mu buli kintu ky’onootuusangako engalo zo.
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 Olwokubanga mu nsi temuubulengamu baavu abali mu kwetaaga, kyenva nkulagira nti muganda wo omwavu era ali mu kwetaaga omwanjululizanga engalo zo bulijjo mu nsi yo.
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 Omusajja Omwebbulaniya oba omukazi Omwebbulaniya gw’onoobanga oguze okukuweerezanga, bw’anaamalangako emyaka omukaaga, mu mwaka ogw’omusanvu onoomuddizanga eddembe lye.
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 Era bw’onoomutanga tomusiibulanga ngalo nsa.
And when you send him out free from you, you shall not let him go away empty:
14 Omuwangako, nga teweebalira, ku magana go, ne ku mmere yo ey’empeke, ne ku wayini wo. Omuwanga nga Mukama Katonda wo bw’anaabanga akuwadde omukisa.
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 Ojjukiranga nga wali muddu mu nsi y’e Misiri, Mukama Katonda wo n’akununulayo. Noolwekyo kyenva nkuwa ekiragiro kino leero.
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 Naye omuddu bw’anaakugambanga nti, “Sijja kuva wano,” kubanga akwagala nnyo ggwe n’abali mu maka go, era nga bw’abeera naawe aba bulungi;
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 kale nno, onoomulazanga awali oluggi, n’oddira olukato n’olufumitanga mu kutu kwe okw’ebweru ne luyingira ne mu luggi; olwo anaabanga afuuse muweereza wo ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwe bwonna. N’omuweereza wo omukazi naye onoomuyisanga bw’otyo.
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 Tolowoozanga nti omukwatiddwa ekisa kubanga akuweerezza okumala emyaka mukaaga, nga buli mulimu gw’akola gwandikoleddwanga abaweereza ab’empeera babiri balamba. Era mu byonna by’onookolanga, Mukama Katonda wo anaakuwanga omukisa.
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 Buli bibereberye ebisajja ebinaazaalibwanga mu ggana lyo ne mu kisibo kyo, onoobitukuzanga era binaabanga bya Mukama Katonda wo. Ente zo ennume embereberye tozikozesanga mirimu, n’endiga zo embereberye tozisalangako byoya.
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 Ebibereberye ebyo onoobiryanga buli mwaka, buli mwaka, ggwe n’ab’omu nju yo bonna, nga mubiriiranga mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo, mu kifo Mukama ky’anaabanga yeerondedde.
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 Ekisolo bwe kinaabeerangako akamogo, gamba nga kirema, oba nga kizibe kya maaso, oba nga kiriko ekikyamu kyonna ekinene, tokireetanga ng’ekiweebwayo eri Mukama Katonda wo.
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 Onookiriiranga mu bibuga byo. Omulongoofu n’atali mulongoofu mwenna munaabiryanga nga bwe munaalyanga empeewo oba enjaza.
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 Naye omusaayi togulyanga, oguyiwanga wansi ku ttaka ng’ayiwa amazzi.
Only you shall not eat the blood thereof; you shall pour it on the ground as water.
