Deotoronomia 15
1 Ie amy ze fipeaha’ ty taom-paha-fito, le mañahà irehe.
You are to cancel debts the end of every seven years.
2 Intoy ty satam-pañahàñe: havotso’ ze kila mpampisongo am’ondatio ty nampisongoe’e; tsy ho paiae’e am’indatiy ndra aman-drahalahi’e, amy te kinoike ty fañahà’ Iehovà.
This is the way the it will work: If you provided a loan to someone you must cancel it. You are not allowed to collect anything from another Israelite, because the Lord's time of debt cancelation has been announced.
3 Aa naho ty renetane, le azo’o ampañavahañe, fe havotsom-pità’o ze azo aman-dongo’o;
You are allowed to collect payments from a foreigner, but you must cancel whatever your fellow Israelite owes you.
4 ie amy zao, tsy ho ama’ areo ao ty rarake; amy te vata’e hampibodobodoe’ Iehovà an-tane atolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o azo ho tavaneñe ho lova;
However, you shouldn't have poor people among you, for the Lord will really bless you in the country that the Lord your God is giving you to own.
5 naho toe haoñe’o horiheñe ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o hambena’o hanoeñe ze hene lily lilieko azo androany.
You just need to make sure you obey the Lord your God, and that you're careful to follow all these commandments I'm giving you today.
6 Amy te hitahy azo t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, amy nitsarae’e ama’oy, naho hampisongo foko maro irehe fa ihe tsy hisongo, vaho hifehe foko maro irehe f’ie tsy hamelek’ azo.
The Lord your God is going to bless you as he promised. You will lend money to many nations but you won't need to borrow from any of them; you will rule over many nations but you won't be ruled by them.
7 Aa naho ama’o ao ty longo’o rarake ndra an-tanàñe aia’aia an-tane atolo’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o azo, le ko azì’o ty arofo’o ndra mamore-pitañe amy longo’o rarakey.
If there are Israelites who are poor in any of your towns in the country the Lord your God is giving you, then you must not be unfeeling or miserly towards them.
8 Fe adañadañao ama’e ty fità’o le ampisongò aze ze hahaatsake i paia’e tsy ama’ey.
On the contrary. You should be generous to them, and lend them whatever they need.
9 Asoao tsy ho añ’arofo’o ao ty fikiniàn-draty manao ty hoe, Fa an-titotse ty taom-pahafito, i taom-pañahàñey; le tsy hihevea’o maso i longo’o rarakey, hitolora’o, vaho ie mitoreo azo am’ Iehovà le hakeo ama’o.
Make sure you don't think evil thoughts like, “The seventh year is coming up when debts will be canceled,” so that you look down on the poor with a sneer and refuse to give them anything. They will complain to the Lord about you, and you will be found guilty of sin.
10 Toe ho tolora’o, naho tsy hiore ty arofo’o amy natolo’o ama’ey amy t’ie ro hampiraoraòa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o azo amy ze hene tolon-draha’o, ze fitoloñam-pità’o iaby.
Give and give again to them, and don't feel irritated when you give. When you give generously the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you decide to do.
11 Aa kanao le lia’e tsy himiañe an-tane ao o rarakeo, le hoe ty andiliako azo, Ampidañadañao amy longo’o rarakey naho amy mpitavañ’ay an-tane’oy ty fità’o.
You will always have those who are poor and in need among you, so that's why I'm telling you to give generously to them.
12 Aa naho aletak’ ama’o ty longo’o lahilahy nte-Evre ndra ty ampela nte-Evre vaho mitoroñe azo enen-taon-dre, le avotsoro amy taom-pahafito.
If a Hebrew, one of your own people, whether man or woman, sells themselves to you as a slave and works for you for six years, you have to free them in the seventh year.
13 Le ie haha’o ama’o, ko ado’o hienga azo an-tañam-polo.
And when you free them, don't send them away with nothing.
14 Ho fahana’o am-patarihañe boak’ amy lia-rai’oy naho boak’ an-driha’o ao, vaho boak’ am-pipiritan-divai’o ao; amo nitahia’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o azoo ty handiva’o ama’e.
Give them plenty of gifts: animals from your flocks, grain from your threshing floor, and wine from your winepress. Give to them as generously as the Lord your God has blessed you.
15 Tiahio t’ie niondevo an-tane Mitsraime añe, vaho nijebañ’ azo t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o; izay ty andiliako ama’o androany.
Don't forget that you were once slaves in Egypt, and the Lord your God set you free. That's why I'm giving you this command today.
16 F’ie manao ty hoe ama’o, Tsy hienga azo iraho; amy te ikokoa’e naho i hasavereña’oy vaho mierañerañe ao.
However, if your male slave tells you, “I don't want to leave you,” because he loves you and your family and is better off staying with you,
17 Le andrambeso fitsindrike le trofaho an-dalambei’o eo ty ravembia’e vaho ho fetrek’oro’o nainai’e re, le ano izay ka ty ondevo’o ampela;
then use a metal tool to pierce his ear against the door, and he will be your slave for life. Do the same for your female slave.
18 vaho tsy hañembets’ azo ty hañaha aze ama’o hidada mb’eo amy t’ie nanahake ty mpieke roe ama’o amy nitoroña’e azo enen-taoñey: le hitahy azo amy ze hene fitoloña’o t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o.
Don't see it as a problem to free your slave, because your slave's six years of service to you was worth twice what you would have paid to hire someone. The Lord your God will bless you in everything you do for acting in this way.
19 Havahe’o ho am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o ze hene valohan’ anake lahi’e natera’ o añombe’oo naho o lia-rai’oo, naho tsy hampitoloñe’o ty valohan’ anak’ añombe’o, vaho tsy ho kitsihe’o ty valohan’ anak’ añondri’o.
You are to separate out to give the Lord your God all the firstborn males of your herds and flocks. You must not have the firstborn of your cattle work, and don't shear the firstborn of your sheep.
20 Ho kamae’o añatrefa’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o boa-taoñe izay amy toetse ho joboñe’ Iehovày, ihe naho o añ’anjomba’oo.
Every year you and your family are to eat these animals that have been sacrificed in the presence of the Lord your God in the place that the Lord will choose.
21 Aa ihe aman-kandra, ke mbiko ke goa he aman-kila, le tsy hisoroñe am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o.
However, if an animal has some defect or is lame or blind, in fact if it has any serious defect at all, you are not to sacrifice it to the Lord your God.
22 Hikama’o an-drova’o ao: songa hitrao-pikama ama’e ty tsy malio naho ty malio, manahake t’ie tsebý ndra aiàle.
Eat it at home. All of you, whether you're ceremonially clean or not, can it eat it just like you would eat a gazelle or a deer,
23 Fe tsy ho kamae’o ka ty lio’e fa hadoa’o hoe rano an-tane eo.
but you are not to eat the blood—pour that out on the ground.
