Levitikosy 25
1 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy teo an-tendrombohitra Sinay ka nanao hoe:
The LORD said to Moses on Mount Sinai,
2 Mitenena amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely hoe: Rehefa tonga any amin’ ny tany izay omeko anareo ianareo, aoka hisy fitsaharana ho an’ ny tany, dia sabata ho an’ i Jehovah.
“Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When you come into the land which I give you, then the land shall keep a Sabbath to the LORD.
3 Enin-taona no hamafazanao ny taninao, enin-taona no hanamboaranao ny sahanao sy hanangonanao ny vokatra;
You shall sow your field six years, and you shall prune your vineyard six years, and gather in its fruits;
4 fa ny taona fahafito kosa ho tena fitsaharana ho an’ ny tany, dia sabata ho an’ i Jehovah; aza mamafy amin’ ny taninao ianao, ary aza mamboatra ny sahanao.
but in the seventh year there shall be a Sabbath of solemn rest for the land, a Sabbath to the LORD. You shall not sow your field or prune your vineyard.
5 Aza mijinja izay maniry ho azy avy tamin’ ny voa nihintsana tamin’ ny fararano lasa, ary aza mioty ny voaloboka avy tamin’ izay tsy namboarinao; fa aoka ho taona fitsaharana ho an’ ny tany izany.
What grows of itself in your harvest you shall not reap, and you shall not gather the grapes of your undressed vine. It shall be a year of solemn rest for the land.
6 Ary izay maniry ho azy amin’ ny sabatan’ ny tany no ho hanina ho anao sy ny ankizilahinao sy ny ankizivavinao sy ny mpikarama sy ny vahiny eo aminao
The Sabbath of the land shall be for food for you; for yourself, for your servant, for your maid, for your hired servant, and for your stranger, who lives as a foreigner with you.
7 sy ny biby fiompinao ary ny bibidia izay eo amin’ ny taninao; izay vokatra rehetra eo no hohaniny.
For your livestock also, and for the animals that are in your land, shall all its increase be for food.
8 Ary manisà sabatan-taona fito ho anao, dia fito taona impito, ka ny hanisanao ny andron’ ireo sabatan-taona fito ireo dia sivy amby efa-polo taona.
“‘You shall count off seven Sabbaths of years, seven times seven years; and there shall be to you the days of seven Sabbaths of years, even forty-nine years.
9 Dia mitsofa anjomara avo feo amin’ ny andro fahafolo amin’ ny volana fahafito; dia amin’ ny andro fanavotana no hitsofanareo anjomara eran’ ny taninareo.
Then you shall sound the loud trumpet on the tenth day of the seventh month. On the Day of Atonement you shall sound the trumpet throughout all your land.
10 Ary hamasino ny taona fahadimam-polo, ka miantsoa fanafahana amin’ ny tany ho an’ ny mponina rehetra ao aminy; Jobily ho anareo izany, ka samia mody any amin’ ny taninareo avy ianareo sy any amin’ ny mpianakavinareo avy.
You shall make the fiftieth year holy, and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee to you; and each of you shall return to his own property, and each of you shall return to his family.
11 Jobily ho anareo izany taona fahadimam-polo izany; aza mamafy ianareo, ary aza mijinja izay maniry ho azy avy tamin’ ny voa nihintsana tamin’ ny fararano lasa, ary aza mioty ny avy tamin’ izay tsy namboarinareo;
That fiftieth year shall be a jubilee to you. In it you shall not sow, neither reap that which grows of itself, nor gather from the undressed vines.
12 fa Jobily izany ka ho masìna ho anareo. Izay vokatra alaina any an-tsaha no hohaninareo.
For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy to you. You shall eat of its increase out of the field.
13 Amin’ izany taona Jobily izany dia samy hody amin’ ny taninareo avy ianareo.
“‘In this Year of Jubilee each of you shall return to his property.
14 Ary raha mivarotra na mividy zavatra amin’ ny namanao ianao, aza misy manao sarotra:
“‘If you sell anything to your neighbor, or buy from your neighbor, you shall not wrong one another.
15 araka ny isan’ ny taona aorian’ ny Jobily no hividiananao amin’ ny namanao; ary araka ny isan’ ny fararano no hivarotany aminao.
According to the number of years after the Jubilee you shall buy from your neighbor. According to the number of years of the crops he shall sell to you.
16 Araka ny hamaron’ ny taona no hampitomboanao ny vidiny, ary araka ny havitsin’ ny taona sisa no hampihenanao ny vidiny; fa araka ny isan’ ny fararano no hivarotany aminao.
According to the length of the years you shall increase its price, and according to the shortness of the years you shall diminish its price; for he is selling the number of the crops to you.
17 Ary aza misy manao sarotra ianareo, fa matahora an’ Andriamanitrao; fa Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrareo.
You shall not wrong one another, but you shall fear your God; for I am the LORD your God.
18 Ary araho ny didiko, ary tandremo ny fitsipiko, ka araho izy; dia handry fahizay amin’ ny tany ianareo.
“‘Therefore you shall do my statutes, and keep my ordinances and do them; and you shall dwell in the land in safety.
19 Ary ny tany hahavoka-javatra dia hihinana ianareo ka ho voky, ary handry fahizay.
The land shall yield its fruit, and you shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.
20 Ary andrao ianareo manao hoe: Inona no hohaninay amin’ ny taona fahafito? fa, indro, tsy mamafy izahay, na manangona ny vokatray;
If you said, “What shall we eat the seventh year? Behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase;”
21 dia hataoko aminareo ny fitahiako amin’ ny taona fahenina, ka hisy vokatra ampy ho anareo amin’ ny telo taona.
then I will command my blessing on you in the sixth year, and it shall bear fruit for the three years.
22 Ary hamafy amin’ ny taona fahavalo ianareo ka hihinana ny tranainy mandra-pahatongan’ ny taona fahasivy; mandra-pahatongan’ ny vao no hihinananareo ny tranainy.
You shall sow the eighth year, and eat of the fruits from the old store until the ninth year. Until its fruits come in, you shall eat the old store.
23 Ary ny tany tsy hatao varo-maty, satria Ahy ny tany; fa vahiny sy mpivahiny amiko ianareo.
“‘The land shall not be sold in perpetuity, for the land is mine; for you are strangers and live as foreigners with me.
24 Ary havelanareo ho azo avotana ny tany eo amin’ ny tany rehetra izay lovanareo.
In all the land of your possession you shall grant a redemption for the land.
25 Raha tàhiny mihamalahelo ny rahalahinao, ka nivarotany ny taniny, dia ho avy ny havany akaiky ka hanavotra izay namidin’ ny rahalahiny.
“‘If your brother becomes poor, and sells some of his possessions, then his kinsman who is next to him shall come, and redeem that which his brother has sold.
26 Ary raha tsy manan-kavana hanavotra ralehilahy, nefa nambinina izy ka nahazo izay ampy ho enti-manavotra azy,
If a man has no one to redeem it, and he becomes prosperous and finds sufficient means to redeem it,
27 dia aoka hanisa ny taona hatramin’ ny nivarotany azy izy ka handoa ny hevitry ny taona sisa ho an’ ny lehilahy izay nivarotany azy; ka dia hody amin’ ny taniny izy.
then let him reckon the years since its sale, and restore the surplus to the man to whom he sold it; and he shall return to his property.
28 Fa raha tsy nahazo izay ampy handoavana izany izy, izay namidiny dia mbola hitoetra eo an-tànan’ ilay nividy azy ihany mandra-pahatongan’ ny taona Jobily; ary ho afaka izany amin’ ny Jobily, ka hody amin’ ny taniny ralehilahy.
But if he isn’t able to get it back for himself, then what he has sold shall remain in the hand of him who has bought it until the Year of Jubilee. In the Jubilee it shall be released, and he shall return to his property.
29 Ary raha misy olona mivarotra trano itoerana ao amin’ ny tanàna mimanda, dia hahazo manavotra azy izy mandra-pahatapitry ny herintaona nivarotany azy; fa ao anatin’ izany no hahazoany manavotra azy.
“‘If a man sells a dwelling house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it has been sold. For a full year he shall have the right of redemption.
30 Fa raha tsy voavotra mandra-pahatapitry ny herintaona kosa ilay trano ao amin’ ny tanàna mimanda, dia tapaka ho varo-maty ho an’ izay nividy azy sy ho an’ ny taranany izany; tsy ho afaka izany na dia amin’ ny Jobily aza.
If it isn’t redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city shall be made sure in perpetuity to him who bought it, throughout his generations. It shall not be released in the Jubilee.
31 Fa ny trano ao amin’ ny vohitra izay tsy misy manda manodidina kosa dia hatao taha, ka ny tany ihany; ho azo avotana ihany izany, na ho afaka amin’ ny Jobily.
But the houses of the villages which have no wall around them shall be accounted for with the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall be released in the Jubilee.
32 Kanefa ny amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Levita, ny trano ao amin’ ny tanàna izay ho anjarany dia ho azon’ ny Levita avotana ihany na oviana na oviana.
“‘Nevertheless, in the cities of the Levites, the Levites may redeem the houses in the cities of their possession at any time.
33 Ary raha misy Levita manavotra azy, dia ho afaka amin’ ny Jobily ny trano izay namidy sy ny tanàna izay anjarany; fa ny trano ao an-tanànan’ ny Levita dia lovany ao amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
The Levites may redeem the house that was sold, and the city of his possession, and it shall be released in the Jubilee; for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.
34 Fa ny tany manodidina ny tanànany kosa dia tsy azo hamidy; fa ho lovany mandrakizay izany.
But the field of the pasture lands of their cities may not be sold, for it is their perpetual possession.
35 Ary raha mihamalahelo ny rahalahinao izay miara-monina aminao ka reraka, dia vonjeo izy, ka aoka mba ho velona eo aminao tahaka ny vahiny sy ny mpivahiny izy.
“‘If your brother has become poor, and his hand can’t support himself among you, then you shall uphold him. He shall live with you like an alien and a temporary resident.
36 Aza maka zana-bola na tombony aminy; fa matahora an’ Andriamanitrao, mba ho velona eo aminao ny rahalahinao.
Take no interest from him or profit; but fear your God, that your brother may live among you.
37 Aza mampanàna vola aminy, ary aza mampisambotra hanina hahazoana tombony:
You shall not lend him your money at interest, nor give him your food for profit.
38 Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrareo, Izay nitondra anareo nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, hanome anareo ny tany Kanana, mba ho Andriamanitrareo.
I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.
39 Ary raha mihamalahelo ny rahalahinao ka mivaro-tena aminao, aza ampanompoinao toy ny andevo izy;
“‘If your brother has grown poor among you, and sells himself to you, you shall not make him to serve as a slave.
40 fà aoka hitoetra eo aminao tahaka ny mpikarama sy tahaka ny vahiny izy; mandra-pahatongan’ ny taona Jobily no hanompoany anao.
As a hired servant, and as a temporary resident, he shall be with you; he shall serve with you until the Year of Jubilee.
41 Dia ho afaka izy sy ny zanany ka hody amin’ ny mpianakaviny sy amin’ ny tanin-drazany koa.
Then he shall go out from you, he and his children with him, and shall return to his own family, and to the possession of his fathers.
42 Fa mpanompoko izay nentiko nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta izy ka tsy hamidy tahaka ny andevo.
For they are my servants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt. They shall not be sold as slaves.
43 Aza mampanompo azy fatratra, fa matahora an’ Andriamanitrao.
You shall not rule over him with harshness, but shall fear your God.
44 Ary ny amin’ izay ho andevolahinao sy andevovavinao, dia amin’ ny jentilisa izay manodidina anareo no hividiananareo azy.
“‘As for your male and your female slaves, whom you may have from the nations that are around you, from them you may buy male and female slaves.
45 Ary amin’ ny zanaky ny vahiny eo aminareo sy amin’ ny taranany izay haterany eo amin’ ny taninareo no hividiananareo koa; ary dia ho fanananareo izany.
Moreover, of the children of the aliens who live among you, of them you may buy, and of their families who are with you, which they have conceived in your land; and they will be your property.
46 Ary hataonareo lovan’ ny zanakareo mandimby anareo izany ho fananana holovany ka hampanompoinareo mandrakizay fa ny Zanak’ Isiraely rahalahinareo dia aza mba ampanompoina fatratra.
You may make them an inheritance for your children after you, to hold for a possession. Of them you may take your slaves forever, but over your brothers the children of Israel you shall not rule, one over another, with harshness.
47 Ary raha tonga manan-karena ny vahiny izay monina eo aminao na ny mpivahiny, ary ny rahalahinao eo aminy mihamalahelo kosa ka mivaro-tena amin’ ny vahiny eo aminao, na amin’ ny taranaky ny vahiny;
“‘If an alien or temporary resident with you becomes rich, and your brother beside him has grown poor, and sells himself to the stranger or foreigner living among you, or to a member of the stranger’s family,
48 na dia nivaro-tena aza izy, dia azo avotana indray; ny anankiray amin’ ny rahalahiny no mahazo manavotra azy:
after he is sold he may be redeemed. One of his brothers may redeem him;
49 na ny rahalahin-drainy, na ny zanak’ olo-mirahalahy aminy, na izay havany akaiky azy amin’ ny mpianakaviny no mahazo manavotra azy; kanefa raha tratry ny ananany, dia hanavo-tena izy.
or his uncle, or his uncle’s son, may redeem him, or any who is a close relative to him of his family may redeem him; or if he has grown rich, he may redeem himself.
50 Ary dia hisainy amin’ izay nividy azy hatramin’ ny taona nivarotana azy ka hatramin’ ny taona Jobily; ary ny vola nivarotany ny tenany dia hoheverina araka ny isan’ ny taona; dia ara-kevitry ny andron’ ny mpikarama no hiheverana azy.
He shall reckon with him who bought him from the year that he sold himself to him to the Year of Jubilee. The price of his sale shall be according to the number of years; he shall be with him according to the time of a hired servant.
51 Raha mbola maro ny taona sisa, dia ara-keviny ihany no handoavany ny avony avy amin’ ny vola vidiny teo aloha.
If there are yet many years, according to them he shall give back the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for.
52 Any raha vitsy kosa ny taona sisa mandra-pahatongan’ ny taona Jobily, dia hanisa izany aminy izy, ka ara-kevitry ny taona ihany no handoavany ny vola avony.
If there remain but a few years to the year of jubilee, then he shall reckon with him; according to his years of service he shall give back the price of his redemption.
53 Tahaka izay karamaina isan-taona no hitoerany eo aminy; fa aoka tsy hampanompoina fatratra eo imasonao izy.
As a servant hired year by year shall he be with him. He shall not rule with harshness over him in your sight.
54 Ary raha tsy voavotra amin’ izay izy, dia ho afaka amin’ ny taona Jobily izy sy ny zanany koa.
If he isn’t redeemed by these means, then he shall be released in the Year of Jubilee: he and his children with him.
55 Fa mpanompoko ny Zanak’ Isiraely, dia mpanompoko izay nentiko nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta: Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrareo.
For to me the children of Israel are servants; they are my servants whom I brought out of the land of Egypt. I am the LORD your God.
