Rewitikuha 25

1 Korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi i Maunga Hinai, i mea,

And the Lord spake vnto Moses in mount Sinai, saying,

2 Korero ki nga tama a Iharaira, mea atu ki a ratou, E tae koutou ki te whenua e hoatu e ahau ki a koutou, na ka whakahapati te whenua i tetahi hapati ki a Ihowa.

Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, When ye shall come into the lande which I giue you, the lande shall keepe Sabbath vnto the Lord.

3 E ono nga tau e whakatongia ai e koe tau mara, e ono hoki nga tau e tapatapahia ai e koe tau mara waina, e kohia ai hoki ona hua;

Sixe yeeres thou shalt sowe thy field, and sixe yeeres thou shalt cut thy vineyarde, and gather the fruite thereof.

4 Ko te whitu ia o nga tau hei hapati okiokinga mo te whenua, hei hapati ki a Ihowa: kaua e whakatongia tau mara, e tapatapahia ranei tau mara waina.

But the seuenth yeere shalbe a Sabbath of rest vnto the lande: it shall be the Lordes Sabbath: thou shalt neither sowe thy fielde, nor cut thy vineyarde.

5 Kaua e kotia te mea i tupu noa ake i tera kotinga au, kaua ano e whakiia nga karepe o tau waina kihai nei i mahia: he tau okiokinga hoki tena mo te whenua.

That which groweth of it owne accorde of thy haruest, thou shalt not reape, neither gather the grapes that thou hast left vnlaboured: for it shalbe a yeere of rest vnto the land.

6 A hei kai ma koutou te hapati o te whenua; mau, ma tau pononga tane, ma tau pononga wahine, ma tau kaimahi, ma tou manene hoki e noho ana i a koe;

And the rest of the lande shall be meate for you, euen for thee, and for thy seruant, and for thy mayde, and for thy hired seruant, and for the stranger that soiourneth with thee:

7 Ma au kararehe hoki, ma te kirehe hoki o tou whenua, ona hua katoa, hei kai.

And for thy cattell, and for the beastes that are in thy lande shall all the encrease thereof be meate.

8 A me tatau e koe kia whitu nga tau hapati, kia whitu nga whitu o nga tau; a ko taua takiwa, ko nga tau hapati e whitu, ka kiia e koe e wha tekau ma iwa tau.

Also thou shalt number seuen Sabbaths of yeeres vnto thee, euen seuen times seuen yeere: and the space of the seuen Sabbaths of yeeres will be vnto thee nine and fourtie yeere.

9 Katahi ka whakatangihia e koe te tetere tangi nui i te tekau o nga ra o te whitu o nga marama; ko a te ra whakamarietanga mea ai koutou kia paku atu te tangi o te tetere puta noa i to koutou whenua.

Then thou shalt cause to blow the trumpet of the Iubile in the tenth day of the seuenth moneth: euen in the day of the reconciliation shall ye make the trumpet blowe, throughout all your lande.

10 A me whakatapu te rima tekau o nga tau, ka karanga ai i te haere noa puta noa i te whenua ma nga tangata katoa o te whenua: hei tiupiri nui tena ma koutou; a me hoki koutou ki tona kainga, ki tona kainga, me hoki ano ki ona whanaunga, ki ona wha naunga.

And ye shall halowe that yeere, euen the fiftieth yeere, and proclaime libertie in the lande to all the inhabitants thereof: it shalbe the Iubile vnto you, and ye shall returne euery man vnto his possession, and euery man shall returne vnto his familie.

11 Ko tena tau, ko te rima tekau, hei tiupiri ma koutou: kaua e rui, kaua e kokoti i te mea tupu noa ake o tena tau, kaua hoki e whakiia nga waina kihai i mahia.

This fiftieth yeere shalbe a yeere of Iubile vnto you: ye shall not sowe, neither reape that which groweth of it selfe, neither gather the grapes thereof, that are left vnlaboured.

12 Ko te tiupiri hoki ia; kia tapu ki a koutou; ko ona hua o te mara hei kai ma koutou.

For it is the Iubile, it shall be holy vnto you: ye shall eate of the encrease thereof out of the fielde.

13 Me hoki koutou i tenei tau tiupiri, ki tona kainga, ki tona kainga,

In the yeere of this Iubile, ye shall returne euery man vnto his possession.

14 Ki te hokona atu ano e koe tetahi mea ki tou hoa, ki te hokona mai ranei tetahi mea e te ringa o tou hoa, kaua e tukinotia tetahi e tetahi:

And when thou sellest ought to thy neighbour, or byest at thy neighbours hande, ye shall not oppresse one another:

15 Kia rite au utu ki tou hoa ki te maha o nga tau i muri i te tiupiri; kia rite ano ki te maha o nga tau hua tana hoko ki a koe.

But according to the nomber of yeeres after the Iubile thou shalt bye of thy neighbour: also according to the nomber of the yeeres of the reuenues, he shall sell vnto thee.

16 Kia rite tau whakanui i te utu o taua mea ki te maha o nga tau, kia rite hoki taua whakaiti i ona utu ki te torutoru o nga tau: e rite ana hoki ki te maha o nga tau hua tana hoko ki a koe:

According to the multitude of yeeres, thou shalt increase the price thereof, and according to the fewnesse of yeeres, thou shalt abate the price of it: for the nomber of fruites doeth he sell vnto thee.

17 A kaua e tukino tetahi ki tetahi, engari me wehi koe ki tou Atua: ko Ihowa hoki ahau, ko to koutou Atua.

Oppresse not ye therefore any man his neighbour, but thou shalt feare thy God: for I am the Lord your God.

18 Mo reira me mahi e koutou aku tikanga, me pupuru aku whakaritenga, me mahi hoki; a ka noho humarie koutou i runga i te whenua,

Wherefore ye shall obey mine ordinances, and keepe my lawes, and do them, and ye shall dwell in the land in safetie.

19 A ka tukua ona hua e te whenua, a ka kai koutou ka makona, ka noho humarie hoki ki reira.

And the lande shall giue her fruite, and ye shall eate your fill, and dwell therein in safetie.

20 A ki te mea koutou, He aha he kai ma tatou i te whitu o nga tau? titiro hoki, e kore tatou e rua, e kore hoki e kohi i a tatou hua:

And if ye shall say, What shall we eate the seuenth yeere, for we shall not sowe, nor gather in our increase?

21 Maku ra e whakahau iho taku manaaki ki a koutou i te ono o nga tau, a ka whai hua mo nga tau e toru.

I will sende my blessing vpon you in the sixt yeere, and it shall bring foorth fruite for three yeeres.

22 A ka rui koutou i te waru o nga tau, ka kai ano i nga hua pakoko; a tae noa ki te iwa o nga tau, me kai nga mea pakoko, kia riro ra ano nga hua o tena tau.

And ye shall sowe the eight yeere, and eate of the olde fruite vntill the ninth yeere: vntill the fruite thereof come, ye shall eate the olde.

23 Kaua e hokona te whenua, he mea oti tonu atu; noku hoki te whenua; he manene hoki koutou, he noho noa ki ahau.

Also the lande shall not be solde to be cut off from the familie: for the land is mine, and ye be but strangers and soiourners with me.

24 Me whakaae hoki ki te utu e hoki ai te whenua, i to koutou whenua katoa.

Therefore in all the land of your possession ye shall graunt a redemption for the lande.

25 Ki te rawakoretia tou teina, a ka hokona e ia tetahi wahi o tona kainga, me haere mai tona whanaunga e tata rawa ana ki a ia, ka utu i te mea i hokona atu e tona teina kia hoki ai.

If thy brother be impouerished, and sell his possession, then his redeemer shall come, euen his neere kinsman, and bye out that which his brother solde.

26 A ki te kahore he kaiutu a tetahi tangata, a ka whiwhi taonga ia a ka taea ano e ia te utu;

And if he haue no redeemer, but hath gotten and founde to bye it out,

27 Na me tatau e ia nga tau i hokona ai, a ka whakahoki i te tuhene ki te tangata i hokona atu ai; a ka hoki ai ia ki tona kainga.

Then shall he count the yeeres of his sale, and restore the ouerplus to the man, to whome he solde it: so shall he returne to his possession.

28 Otiia ki te kahore e taea e ia te whakahoki mai ki a ia ano, na me waiho tana i hoko ai ki te ringa o te tangata nana i hoko, a tae noa ki te tau tiupiri: a i te tiupiri ka riro, a ka hoki ia ki tona kainga.

But if he can not get sufficient to restore to him, then that which is solde, shall remaine in the hande of him that hath bought it, vntill the yere of the Iubile: and in the Iubile it shall come out, and he shall returne vnto his possession.

29 Ki te hokona e te tangata he whare nohoanga i te pa taiepa, e ahei ia te utu kia hoki mai ano i roto i te tau kotahi i muri i te rironga: kotahi tino tau hei whakahokinga mana.

Likewise if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled citie, he may bye it out againe within a whole yeere after it is solde: within a yeere may he bye it out.

30 A ki te kahore e utua, a tino taka noa te tau, katahi ka whakapumautia mo ake tonu atu te whare i te pa taiepa mo te tangata nana i hoki, puta noa i ona whakatupuranga: e kore e riro i te tiupiri.

But if it be not bought out within ye space of a ful yeere, then the house that is in the walled citie, shalbe stablished, as cut off from the familie, to him that bought it, throughout his generations: it shall not goe out in the Iubile.

31 Ko nga whare ia o nga kainga, kahore nei he taiepa a tawhio noa, ka kiia e rite ana ki nga parae o te whenua: ka hoki ano ena ina utua, ka riro ano i te tuipiri.

But the houses of villages, which haue no walles round about them, shalbe esteemed as the fielde of the countrey: they may be bought out againe, and shall goe out in the Iubile.

32 Ko nga pa ia o nga Riwaiti, me nga whare o nga pa e nohoia ana e ratou, e hoki ki nga Riwaiti, ahakoa utua i tehea wa.

Notwithstanding, the cities of the Leuites, and the houses of the cities of their possession, may the Leuites redeeme at all seasons.

33 A, mehemea na tetahi o nga Riwaiti i utu, na ka riro te whare i hokona ra me tona pa i te tiupiri; ko nga whare hoki o nga pa o nga Riwaiti to ratou kainga pumau i roto i nga tama a Iharaira.

And if a man purchase of the Leuites, the house that was solde, and the citie of their possession shall goe out in the Iubile: for the houses of the cities of the Leuites are their possession among the children of Israel.

34 Ko te mara ia i te taha o o ratou pa kaua e hokona; no te mea he wahi pumau tena no ratou.

But the fielde of the suburbes of their cities, shall not be solde: for it is their perpetuall possession.

35 A ki te rawakoretia tou teina, a ka wiri tona ringa i roto i a koe; me atawhai e koe; me noho manene ia, me noho noa ranei i a koe.

Moreouer, if thy brother be impouerished, and fallen in decay with thee, thou shalt relieue him, and as a stranger and soiourner, so shall he liue with thee.

36 Kaua e tangohia i a ia he moni whakatuputupu, he whakanuinga ranei; engari me wehi koe ki tou Atua; kia noho ai tou teina i a koe.

Thou shalt take no vsurie of him, nor vantage, but thou shalt feare thy God, that thy brother may liue with thee.

37 Kaua tau moni e hoatu ki a ia hei mea whakatuputupu, kaua ano hoki au kai e hoatu ki a ia, me te whakaaro ano ki tetahi whakanuinga ake.

Thou shalt not giue him thy money to vsurie, nor lende him thy vitailes for increase.

38 Ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua, i kawe mai nei i a koutou i te whenua o Ihipa, e mea nei kia hoatu te whenua o Kanaana ki a koutou kia waiho ano ahau hei Atua mo koutou.

I am the Lord your God, which haue brought you out of the lande of Egypt, to giue you the lande of Canaan, and to be your God.

39 A ki te rawakoretia tou teina e noho ana i roto i a koe, a ka hokona ki a koe; kaua ia e whakamahia e koe ki te mahi pononga;

If thy brother also that dwelleth by thee, be impouerished, and be sold vnto thee, thou shalt not compel him to serue as a bond seruant,

40 Kia rite ia i roto i a koe ki te kaimahi, ki te noho noa; ka mahi ano ia ki a koe, a tae noa ki te tau tiupiri:

But as an hired seruant, and as a soiourner he shalbe with thee: he shall serue thee vnto the yeere of the Iubile.

41 Ko reira ia mawehe ai i a koe, ratou ko ana tamariki, a ka hoki ki ona whanaunga, ka hoki ano ki te kainga o ona matua.

Then shall he depart from thee, both hee, and his children with him, and shall returne vnto his familie, and vnto the possession of his fathers shall he returne:

42 Ko ratou hoki aku pononga, i whakaputaina mai ai e ahau i te whenua o Ihipa; kaua ratou e hokona hei pononga.

For they are my seruants, whom I brought out of the lande of Egypt: they shall not be solde as bondmen are solde.

43 Kaua e taikaha tau whakarangatira ki a ia; engari me wehi ki tou Atua.

Thou shalt not rule ouer him cruelly, but shalt feare thy God.

44 Tena ko nga pononga tane me nga pononga wahine mau; me hoko e koe i nga iwi i tetahi taha ou, i tetahi taha, he pononga tane, he pononga wahine mau.

Thy bond seruant also, and thy bond maid, which thou shalt haue, shalbe of the heathen that are rounde about you: of them shall ye bye seruants and maydes.

45 Ma koutou ano hoki e hoko etahi o nga tamariki a nga manene e noho ana i roto i a koutou, etahi hoki o roto o o ratou hapu i roto i a koutou, o nga mea i whanau i a ratou ki to koutou whenua: a puritia iho ma koutou.

And moreouer of the children of the stragers, that are soiourners among you, of them shall ye bye, and of their families that are with you, which they begate in your lande: these shall be your possession.

46 Me waiho hoki ena e koutou hei taonga tupu e tukua iho kia puritia e a koutou tama i muri i a koutou; hei pononga ratou ma koutou ake ake: kaua ia e taikaha ta koutou whakarangatira ki a koutou ano, ki o koutou teina, ki nga tama a Iharaira.

So ye shall take them as inheritance for your children after you, to possesse them by inheritance, ye shall vse their labours for euer: but ouer your brethren the children of Israel ye shall not rule one ouer another with crueltie.

47 Ki te whai rawa hoki te manene, noho noa ranei, i roto i a koe, a ka rawakoretia tou teina i tona taha, a ka hoko i a ia ki te manene, ki te noho noa ranei i roto i a koe, ki te toronga ranei o te hapu o te manene:

If a soiourner or a stranger dwelling by thee get riches, and thy brother by him be impouerished, and sell him selfe vnto the stranger or soiourner dwelling by thee, or to the stocke of the strangers familie,

48 E whakahokia ano ia mo te utu i muri i tona hokonga; ma tetahi o ona teina ia e whakahoki.

After that he is solde, he may be bought out: one of his brethren may bye him out,

49 Ma tona matua keke, ma te tamaiti ranei a tona matua keke ia e whakahoki, ma tetahi ranei o ona whanaunga tupu o tona hapu ia e whakahoki; mana ano ranei ia e whakahoki, ki te taea e ia.

Or his vncle, or his vncles sonne may bye him out, or any of the kindred of his flesh among his familie, may redeeme him: either if he can get so much, he may bye him selfe out.

50 Na ka tatau ia, raua ko te tangata nana ia i hoko, ka timata i te tau i hokona ai ia ki a ia, tae noa ki te tau tiupiri: a ka rite te utu e hokona ai ia ki te maha o nga tau; kia rite ki o te kaimahi ona ra ki a ia.

Then he shall recken with his byer from the yeere that he was solde to him, vnto the yere of Iubile: and the money of his sale shalbe according to the number of yeeres: according to the time of an hyred seruant shall he be with him.

51 Ki te maha ake nga tau, kia rite ki ena te utu mo tona hokinga e whakahokia atu e ia i roto i te moni i hokona ai ia.

If there be many yeeres behind, according to them he shall giue againe for his deliuerance, of the money that he was bought for.

52 A ki te torutoru nga tau e toe ana ki te tau tiupiri, na ka tatau raua; a kia rite ki ona tau te utu e whakahokia e ia ki a ia.

If there remaine but fewe yeeres vnto the yeere of Iubile, then he shall count with him, and according to his yeeres giue againe for his redemption.

53 Ko tona noho ki a ia kia rite ki ta te kaimahi e utua ana i te tau: kaua hoki tera e whakatupu rangatira nanakia ki a ia i tau tirohanga.

He shalbe with him yeere by yeere as an hired seruant: he shall not rule cruelly ouer him in thy sight.

54 A ki te kahore ia e hokona i enei tikanga, na me haere atu ia i te tau tiupiri, ratou tahi ko ana tamariki.

And if he be not redeemed thus, he shall go out in the yeere of Iubile, he, and his children with him.

55 He pononga hoki ki ahau nga tama a Iharaira; ko aku pononga ratou i whakaputaina mai e ahau i te whenua o Ihipa; ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua.

For vnto me the children of Israel are seruants: they are my seruants, who I haue brought out of the land of Egypt: I am ye Lord your God.
