Ebyabaleevi 25

1 Mukama Katonda yagamba Musa ku lusozi Sinaayi nti,

And the LORD spoke unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying,

2 “Tegeeza abaana ba Isirayiri nti bwe mutuukanga mu nsi gye mbawa, ensi yennyini eneekuumiranga Mukama Katonda ssabbiiti.

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When all of you come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto the LORD.

3 Okumala emyaka mukaaga ennimiro zammwe munaazisigangamu emmere, era mu myaka egyo omukaaga munaasaliranga emizabbibu gyammwe n’ebibala ne mubikungula.

Six years you shall sow your field, and six years you shall prune your vineyard, and gather in the fruit thereof;

4 Naye mu mwaka ogw’omusanvu ettaka ly’ensi eyo linaabanga ne ssabbiiti ey’okuwummula eri Mukama Katonda. Temusiganga mmere mu nnimiro zammwe wadde okusalira emizabbibu gyammwe.

But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest unto the land, a sabbath for the LORD: you shall neither sow your field, nor prune your vineyard.

5 Ebimera ebyekuzizza byokka, ebimererezi, temubikungulanga wadde okunoga ebibala ku mizabbibu gyammwe egitaasalirwa. Omwaka ogwo ettaka ly’ensi linaaguwummulanga.

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 unto the land.

6 Ebyo byonna ebyokulya ebinaavanga mu ttaka mu mwaka ogwa ssabbiiti yaalyo binaabanga mmere yammwe, mmwe bennyini, n’eri abaddu bammwe abasajja, n’abakazi, era n’abaweereza bammwe ab’empeera, n’abagenyi abanaabanga basula mu maka gammwe;

And the sabbath of the land shall be food 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 era n’ente zammwe n’ensolo ez’omu nsiko ezinaabanga ku ttaka lyammwe. Buli ekyokulya ekinaakuliranga ku ttaka eryo kinaabanga mmere.

And for your cattle, and for the beast that are in your land, shall all the increase thereof be food.

8 “Munaabaliriranga essabbiiti musanvu ez’omu myaka, kwe kugamba nti musanvu emirundi emyaka musanvu. Bwe kityo ekiseera kyonna ekya ssabbiiti ezo ne kiba emyaka amakumi ana mu mwenda.

And you shall number seven sabbaths of years unto you, seven times seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall be unto you forty and nine years.

9 Ekkondeere ery’okujaguza munaalifuuyiranga wonna wonna ku lunaku olw’ekkumi mu mwezi ogw’omusanvu ku Lunaku olw’Okutangiririrwa, ekkondeere munaalifuuyiranga mu nsi yammwe yonna.

Then shall you cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall all of you make the trumpet sound throughout all your land.

10 Munaatukuzanga omwaka ogw’amakumi ataano, era munaalangiriranga ebiseera eby’eddembe eri abatuuze bonna mu ggwanga lyammwe. Omwaka ogwo gunaabanga gwa kujaguza gwa Jjubiri gye muli; buli omu anaddangayo mu kifo kye eky’obwannannyini, era buli omu anaddangayo mu kika kye.

And all of you shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and all of you shall return every man unto his possession, and all of you shall return every man unto his family.

11 Omwaka ogw’amakumi ataano gunaabanga gwa kujaguza gwa Jjubiri gye muli; mu mwaka ogwo temuusigenga era temuukungulenga bikuze ku bimererezi newaakubadde okukuŋŋaanya ebibala eby’oku mizabbibu egitali misalire.

A jubile shall that fiftieth year be unto you: all of you shall not sow, neither reap that which grows of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of your vine undressed.

12 Kubanga ekiseera ekyo kya kujaguza kya Jjubiri era kinaabanga kitukuvu gye muli; mulyenga ebyo byokka bye munaggyanga mu nnimiro.

For it is the jubile; it shall be holy unto you: all of you shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.

13 “Mu mwaka ogwo ogw’okujaguza ogwa Jjubiri buli omu anaddangayo mu kifo kye eky’obwannannyini.

In the year of this jubile all of you shall return every man unto his possession.

14 Era bwe munaatunzanga bannammwe ekintu kyonna oba bwe munaagulanga ku bannammwe ekintu kyonna, temuseeragananga.

And if you sell ought unto your neighbour, or buy ought of your neighbour's hand, all of you shall not oppress one another:

15 Munnansi munno onoomugulangako ng’osinziira ku myaka egyakayitawo okuva ku kujaguza ku Jjubiri. Era naye anaakutunzanga ng’asinziira ku myaka egibulayo okutuuka ku makungula g’ebibala.

According to the number of years after the jubile you shall buy of your neighbour, and according unto the number of years of the fruits he shall sell unto you:

16 Emyaka bwe ginaabanga emingi, omuwendo ogulamulwa munaagwongezanga, naye emyaka bwe ginaabanga emitono munaagukendeezanga, kubanga obungi bw’ebikungulwa, bw’ogula ku mutunzi.

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 unto you.

17 Temuseeragananga; mutyanga Katonda wammwe, kubanga Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe.

All of you shall not therefore oppress one another; but you shall fear your God: for I am the LORD your God.

18 “Mugonderenga ebiragiro byange, era mukwatenga amateeka gange, bwe mutyo munaatuulanga n’emirembe mu nsi yammwe.

Wherefore all of you shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; and all of you shall dwell in the land in safety.

19 Ensi eneebaleeteranga ebibala byayo, ne mulya ne mukkuta ne mutuulamu n’emirembe.

And the land shall yield her fruit, and all of you shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.

20 Muyinza okubuuza nti, ‘Bwe tutaasigenga era ne tutakungulanga, kale mu mwaka ogw’omusanvu tunaalyanga ki?’

And if all of you shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase:

21 Mu mwaka ogw’omukaaga ndibayiwako omukisa gwange ogulireetera ensi yammwe ebibala ebirimala emyaka esatu.

Then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for three years.

22 Bwe munaabanga musiga mu mwaka ogw’omunaana, munaabanga mulya ku bibala ebikadde bye mwatereka, okutuusa nga mukungudde ebibala eby’omwaka ogw’omwenda.

And all of you shall sow the eighth year, and eat yet of old fruit until the ninth year; until her fruits come in all of you shall eat of the old store.

23 Ettaka teriitundibwenga kagenderere, kubanga ensi yange; mwe muli bayise era abasuze obusuze.

The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine, for all of you are strangers and sojourners with me.

24 Buli kitundu kya nsi kye munaalyanga, bwe mutundanga ettaka mwerekerangawo omwagaanya ogw’okulinunulayo gye mulitunze.

And in all the land of your possession all of you shall grant a redemption for the land.

25 “Munnansi munnammwe bw’anaayavuwalanga, n’atunda ebimu ku bintu bye, muganda we ow’okumpi mu luganda anajjanga n’anunula ebyo munnansi munne by’atunze.

If your brother be becoming 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 Omuntu bw’anaabanga talina anaabimununulira, naye ye ku bubwe ng’agaggawadde, era ng’afunye obusobozi obw’okubinunula,

And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be able to redeem it;

27 anaabaliriranga omuwendo gw’ensimbi oguli mu myaka kasookedde abitunda, n’abala n’omuwendo ogugya mu myaka egisigaddeyo okutuuka ku Jjubiri, n’agusasula omuntu gwe yaguza ebintu ebyo, olwo eyatunda aneddirangayo mu bintu bye.

Then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and restore the surplus unto the man to whom he sold it; that he may return unto his possession.

28 Naye singa alemwa okufuna obusobozi okumusasula, kale ebyo bye yatunda binaasigalanga mu mukono gw’eyabigula nga ye nannyini byo okutuusa mu Mwaka gwa Jjubiri. Binamuddizibwanga mu Jjubiri, era anaayinzanga okweddirayo mu bintu bye.

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 jubile: and in the jubile it shall go out, and he shall return unto his possession.

29 “Omuntu bw’anaatundanga ennyumba esulwamu eri mu kibuga ekyetooloddwa bbugwe, anaayinzanga okuginunula mu mwaka nga tegunaggwaako. Mu bbanga eryo ery’omwaka omulamba mw’anaabeereranga n’obuyinza obw’okuginunula.

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 Ennyumba eyo eri mu kibuga ekyetooloddwa bbugwe bw’eteenunulibwenga mu bbanga ery’omwaka ogumu, kale eneebeereranga ddala y’oyo eyagigula n’ezzadde lye. Eyagitunda teemuddizibwenga mu Jjubiri.

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 jubile.

31 Naye amayumba ag’omu bubuga obutono obw’omu byalo obuteetooloddwako bisenge, ganaabalirwanga mu ttuluba lye limu n’ery’ennimiro eziri mu byalo. Ganaanunulibwanga era ne gaddira bannyinigo mu Jjubiri.

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 jubile.

32 “Bulijjo Abaleevi banaabanga ba ddembe okununula amayumba gaabwe agali mu bibuga byabwe eby’Abaleevi bye balinako obwannannyini.

Notwithstanding the cities of the Levites, and the houses of the cities of their possession, may the Levites redeem at any time.

33 Era Omuleevi bw’anaabanga takozesezza ddembe lye ery’okununula, kale ennyumba eyatundirwa mu kibuga Abaleevi kye balinako obwannannyini, eneemuddiranga mu Jjubiri; kubanga mu bantu ba Isirayiri ennyumba eziri mu bibuga by’Abaleevi za Baleevi.

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 jubile: for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.

34 Naye ennimiro eziri ku ttaka lya wamu ery’ebibuga byabwe teziitundibwenga; kubanga ezo zaabwe za bwannannyini obw’olubeerera.

But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not be sold; for it is their perpetual possession.

35 “Munnansi munnammwe bw’anaayavuwalanga ng’ali wamu nammwe, nga takyasobola kwefunira buyambi, mubeerenga naye nga mumulabirira nga bwe mwandirabiridde omunnaggwanga oba omusuze obusuze ali mu mmwe.

And if your brother be becoming poor, and fallen in decay with you; then you shall relieve him: yea, though he be a stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with you.

36 Mutyenga Katonda wammwe. Munnammwe temumuggyangako magoba ku kintu kyonna kye munaabanga mumuwoze, bw’atyo munnammwe oyo alyoke abeerenga mu mmwe.

Take you no interest of him, or increase: but fear your God; that your brother may live with you.

37 Bw’omuwolanga ensimbi azzengawo omuwendo gwennyini gw’omuwoze so tasukkirizangamu. Era bw’omuguzanga emmere tossangamu magoba.

You shall not give him your money upon interest, nor lend him your victuals for increase.

38 Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe eyabaggya mu nsi ey’e Misiri okubawa ensi ya Kanani n’okubeera Katonda wammwe.

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 “Era munnansi munnammwe bw’anaayavuwalanga ng’ali nammwe, ne yeetunda gye muli, temumukozesanga nga muddu.

And if your brother that dwells by you be becoming poor, and be sold unto you; you shall not compel him to serve as a bondservant:

40 Munaamukozesanga ng’omupakasi ow’empeera oba ng’omusuze obusuze, ng’ali nammwe. Anaabaweerezanga okutuusa mu Mwaka gwa Jjubiri.

But as an hired servant, and as a sojourner, he shall be with you, and shall serve you unto the year of jubile.

41 Kale nno, olwo anaalekebwanga n’addayo ewaabwe, ye n’abaana be, mu kika kye ku butaka bwa bakadde be.

And then shall he depart from you, both he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.

42 Kubanga baweereza bange be naggya mu nsi y’e Misiri; tebaatundibwenga ng’abaddu.

For they are my servants, which I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondmen.

43 Temubafugisanga bukambwe, naye mutyenga Katonda wammwe.

You shall not rule over him with rigour; but shall fear your God.

44 Abaddu bammwe abasajja n’abaddu bammwe abakazi munaabaggyanga mu mawanga agabeetoolodde, mu mawanga ago mwe muneeguliranga abaddu abasajja n’abaddu abakazi.

Both your bondmen, and your bondmaids, which you shall have, shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall all of you buy bondmen and bondmaids.

45 Era munaayinzanga okwegulira ku bannamawanga abali nammwe abasuze obusuze, ne ku baana baabwe abanaazaalirwanga mu nsi yammwe; abo banaabanga nvuma zammwe.

Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall all of you buy, and of their families that are with you, which they brings forth in your land: and they shall be your possession.

46 Munaayinzanga okulaamira batabani bammwe abalibagoberera envuma ezo ng’obusika bwabwe obw’emirembe gyonna. Naye Bayisirayiri bannammwe temubafugisanga bukambwe.

And all of you shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever: but over your brethren the children of Israel, all of you shall not rule one over another with rigour.

47 “Omunnaggwanga oba omusuze obusuze ali nammwe bw’anaagaggawalanga, naye munnansi munnammwe bwe babeera n’ayavuwala, ne yeetunda eri munnaggwanga oba eri omusuze obusuze ali nammwe, oba eri omu ku b’omu luggya lwa munnaggwanga,

And if a sojourner or stranger wax rich by you, and your brother that dwells by him wax poor, and sell himself unto the stranger or sojourner by you, or to the stock of the stranger's family:

48 anaayinzanga okununulibwa, ng’amaze okwetunda. Omu ku baganda be anayinzanga okumununula:

After that he is sold he may be redeemed again; one of his brethren may redeem him:

49 Taata we oba mutabani wa taata we, oba owooluganda omulala ow’okumpi mu buzaale ow’omu kika kye anaayinzanga okumununula. Oba ye bw’anaagaggawalanga anaayinzanga okwenunula.

Either his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him, or any that is nigh of kin unto him of his family may redeem him; or if he be able, he may redeem himself.

50 Ye n’oli eyamugula bajjanga kubalirira ebbanga okuva mu mwaka gwe yeetundiramu okutuuka ku Mwaka gwa Jjubiri. Omuwendo ogw’okununulibwa guneesigamizibwanga ku muwendo gw’emyaka egibaliriddwa; ebbanga lye yamala n’eyamugula linaageraageranyizibwanga n’ebbanga ery’omupakasi asasulwa empeera.

And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he was sold to him unto the year of jubile: and the price of his sale shall be according unto the number of years, according to the time of an hired servant shall it be with him.

51 Mu kubalirira kwabwe bwe kinaazuukanga ng’ekyasigaddeyo emyaka mingi okutuuka ku Jjubiri, ku muwendo gwe yeetunda anaasasulangako omuwendo munene olw’okwenunula.

If there be yet many years behind, according unto them he shall give again the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for.

52 Naye bw’eneebanga esigaddeyo emyaka mitono, egyo gy’anaabalirirangamu ensimbi zaamu n’asasula ezo nga bwe kyetaagisa olw’okwenunula.

And if there remain but few years unto the year of jubile, then he shall count with him, and according unto his years shall he give him again the price of his redemption.

53 Oyo eyagula munne anaamuyisanga ng’omupakasi amukolera mu kupatana okwa buli mwaka. Temulekanga oyo eyagula munne okumutuntuzanga nga nammwe mulaba.

And as a yearly hired servant shall he be with him: and the other shall not rule with rigour over him in your sight.

54 “Bw’anaabanga tanunulibbwa mu zimu ku ngeri ezo, ye n’abaana be banaanunulibwanga mu Mwaka gwa Jjubiri.

And if he be not redeemed in these years, then he shall go out in the year of jubile, both he, and his children with him.

55 Kubanga abaana ba Isirayiri bantu bange, abaweereza bange be naggya mu nsi ey’e Misiri. Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe.

For unto 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.
