ULevi 25
1 INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi entabeni yeSinayi isithi:
And he spoke Yahweh to Moses on [the] mountain of Sinai saying.
2 Tshono ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli uthi kubo: Nxa lifika elizweni engilinika lona, ilizwe lizaphumula, isabatha eNkosini.
Speak to [the] people of Israel and you will say to them if you will go into the land which I [am] about to give to you and it will cease the land a sabbath to Yahweh.
3 Iminyaka eyisithupha uzahlanyela insimu yakho, leminyaka eyisithupha uthene isivini sakho, ubuthe isithelo saso.
Six years you will sow field your and six years you will prune vineyard your and you will gather produce its.
4 Kodwa ngomnyaka wesikhombisa kuzakuba lesabatha lokuphumula kwelizwe, isabatha eNkosini. Kawuyikuhlanyela insimu yakho, ungatheni isivini sakho.
And in the year seventh a sabbath of sabbath observance it will belong to the land a sabbath to Yahweh field your not you will sow and vineyard your not you will prune.
5 Kawuyikuvuna umkhukhuzela wesivuno sakho, kaliyikukha izithelo zamavini akho angathenwanga. Uzakuba ngumnyaka wokuphumula welizwe.
[the] self-sown grain of Harvest your not you will harvest and [the] grapes untrimmed vines your not you will gather grapes a year of sabbath observance it will belong to the land.
6 Njalo isabatha lelizwe lizakuba yikudla kwenu, ngokwakho, lokwenceku yakho, lokwencekukazi yakho, lokoqhatshiweyo wakho, lokowemzini wakho ohlala lawe njengowezizwe,
And it will belong [the] sabbath of the land to you to food to you and to [male] slave your and to female slave your and to hired laborer your and to resident alien your who are sojourning with you.
7 lokwezifuyo zakho, lokwenyamazana eziselizweni lakho; konke elikuthelayo kuzakuba yikudla.
And to livestock your and to the animal[s] which [is] in land your it will be all produce its to eat.
8 Uzazibalela-ke amaviki ayisikhombisa eminyaka, iminyaka eyisikhombisa ephindwe kasikhombisa, ukuze insuku zamaviki ayisikhombisa eminyaka zibe yiminyaka engamatshumi amane lesificamunwemunye kuwe.
And you will count for yourself seven sabbaths of years seven years seven times and they will be to you [the] days of seven [the] sabbaths of years nine and forty year[s].
9 Khona uzadlulisa uphondo lomsindo omkhulu enyangeni yesikhombisa ngolwetshumi lwenyanga; ngosuku lwenhlawulo yokuthula lizadlulisa umsindo wophondo elizweni lonke lakini.
And you will cause to pass through a ram's horn of [the] sound of a loud blast in the month seventh on the ten of the month on [the] day of atonement you will cause to pass a ram's horn in all land your.
10 Njalo lizangcwelisa lumnyaka wamatshumi amahlanu, limemezele inkululeko elizweni kubo bonke abakhileyo balo. Kuzakuba lijubili kini; lizabuyela, ngulowo lalowo, elifeni lakhe; futhi lizabuyela, ngulowo lalowo, kusapho lwakhe.
And you will set apart as holy [the] year of the fifty year and you will proclaim liberty in the land for all inhabitants its a jubilee it it will be to you and you will return each one to possession his and each one to clan his you will return.
11 Umnyaka wamatshumi amahlanu uzakuba ngumnyaka wejubili kini; lingahlanyeli, lingavuni umkhukhuzela wawo, lingakhi ngawo kumavini angathenwanga.
A jubilee it [the] year of the fifty year it will be to you not you will sow and not you will harvest self-sown grain its and not you will gather grapes untrimmed vines its.
12 Ngoba ulijubili, uzakuba ngcwele kini; lizakudla ensimini okuthelwayo kwayo.
For [is] a jubilee it a holy thing it will be to you from the field you will eat produce its.
13 Ngomnyaka walelijubili lizabuyela, ngulowo lalowo elifeni lakhe.
In [the] year of the jubilee this you will return each one to possession his.
14 Uba-ke uthengisa ulutho kumakhelwane wakho loba uthenga esandleni sikamakhelwane wakho, lingacindezelani.
And if you will sell a thing sold to fellow citizen your or you will buy from [the] hand of fellow citizen your may not you maltreat each brother his.
15 Ngokwenani leminyaka emva kwejubili uzathenga kumakhelwane wakho; ngokwenani leminyaka yokuthelwayo uzakuthengisela.
By [the] number of years after the jubilee you will buy from with fellow citizen your by [the] number of [the] years of produce he will sell [it] to you.
16 Ngobunengi beminyaka uzakwandisa intengo yakho; njalo ngobulutshwana beminyaka uzanciphisa intengo yakho; ngoba ekuthengisela inani lezivuno.
To [the] mouth of - [the] abundance of the years you will increase purchase price its and to [the] mouth of [the] being small of the years you will make small purchase price its for [the] number of produce he [is] selling to you.
17 Ngakho lingacindezelani, kodwa wesabe uNkulunkulu wakho. Ngoba ngiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
And not you will maltreat anyone fellow citizen his and you will fear from God your for I [am] Yahweh God your.
18 Ngakho yenzani izimiso zami, ligcine izahlulelo zami, lizenze, ukuze lihlale elizweni livikelekile.
And you will do statutes my and judgments my you will keep and you will do them and you will dwell on the land to security.
19 Lelizwe lizathela izithelo zalo, lidle lize lisuthe, lihlale kulo livikelekile.
And it will give the land fruit its and you will eat to abundance and you will dwell to security on it.
20 Uba-ke lisithi: Sizakudlani ngomnyaka wesikhombisa? Khangela, kasihlanyeli, kasibuthi isivuno sethu.
And if you will say what? will we eat in the year seventh here! not we will sow and not we will gather produce our.
21 Khona ngizalaya isibusiso sami kini ngomnyaka wesithupha, ukuze uthele isivuno seminyaka emithathu.
And I will command blessing my for you in the year sixth and it will make the produce for [the] three the years.
22 Njalo lizahlanyela ngomnyaka wesificaminwembili lidle okwesivuno esidala kuze kufike umnyaka wesificamunwemunye; kuze kufike isivuno sawo lizakudla esidala.
And you will sow the year eighth and you will eat from the produce old harvest until - the year ninth until comes produce its you will eat old harvest.
23 Lelizwe kaliyikuthengiswa lanininini, ngoba ilizwe ngelami; ngoba lingabemzini labahlala njengabezizwe lami.
And the land not it will be sold to perpetuity for [belongs] to me the land for [are] sojourners and resident aliens you with me.
24 Lelizweni lonke lelifa lenu lizavumela uhlengo lwelizwe.
And in all [the] land of possession your [the] right of redemption you will give of the land.
25 Uba umfowenu esiba ngumyanga, athengise okwelifa lakhe, uzafika umhlengi wakhe eyisihlobo sakhe, ahlenge lokho umfowabo akuthengisileyo.
If he will become impoverished brother your and he will sell some of possession his and he will come kinsman-redeemer his near to him and he will redeem [the] thing sold of brother his.
26 Njalo umuntu, uba engelaye umhlengi, kodwa isandla sakhe sifinyelele, athole okwenele uhlengo lwakhe,
And anyone if not he will belong to him a kinsman-redeemer and it will reach hand his and he will find according to [the] sufficiency of redemption its.
27 kabale iminyaka yokuthengiswa kwalo, abuyisele okuseleyo kulowomuntu owamthengisela lona, abuyele elifeni lakhe.
And he will calculate [the] years of sale its and he will repay the surplus to the person whom he sold [it] to him and he will return to possession his.
28 Kodwa uba isandla sakhe singatholanga okwenele ukubuyisela kuye, okuthengisiweyo kuzakuba sesandleni sokuthengileyo kuze kufike umnyaka wejubili; kodwa ngejubili kuzaphuma, njalo uzabuyela elifeni lakhe.
And if not it has found hand his sufficiency to repay to him and it will be thing sold his in [the] hand of the [one who] bought it until [the] year of the jubilee and it will go out in the jubilee and he will return to possession his.
29 Umuntu, uba ethengisa-ke indlu yokuhlala emzini olomthangala, ilungelo lohlengo lwayo lizakuba kuze kuphele umnyaka wokuthengiswa kwayo; ilungelo lohlengo lwayo lizakuba ngumnyaka wonke.
And anyone if he will sell a house of dwelling of a city of a wall and it will be right of redemption its until is finished [the] year of sale its days it will be right of redemption its.
30 Kodwa uba ingahlengwanga uze umnyaka wayo wonke ugcwale, leyondlu esemzini olomthangala izamiselwa lowo owayithengayo njalonjalo, ezizukulwaneni zakhe; kayiyikuphuma ngejubili.
And if not it will be redeemed until is completed to it a year complete and it will stand the house which [is] in the city which ([belongs] to it *Q(K)*) a wall to perpetuity to the [one who] bought it to generations his not it will go out in the jubilee.
31 Kodwa izindlu zemizi engabiyelwanga ngomthangala zizabalwa njengensimu yelizwe; kulohlengo lwayo, njalo izaphuma ngejubili.
And [the] houses of the villages which not [belongs] to them a wall round about to [the] field of the land it will be reckoned a right of redemption it will belong to it and in the jubilee it will go out.
32 Mayelana lemizi yamaLevi, izindlu zemizi yelifa lawo, amaLevi azakuba lohlengo lwaphakade.
And [the] cities of the Levites [the] houses of [the] cities of possession their a right of redemption of perpetuity it will belong to the Levites.
33 Uba kungohlenga kumaLevi, kuzaphuma ukuthengiswa kwendlu lokomuzi welifa lakhe ngejubili; ngoba izindlu zemizi yamaLevi ziyilifa lawo phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
And that he will redeem one of the Levites and it will go out [the] sale of [the] house and [the] city of possession his in the jubilee for [the] houses of [the] cities of the Levites it [is] possession their in among [the] people of Israel.
34 Kodwa insimu yamaphethelo emizi yawo kayiyikuthengiswa, ngoba iyilifa lawo kuze kube nininini.
And [the] field of [the] pasture land of cities their not it will be sold for [is] a possession of perpetuity it to them.
35 Uba-ke umfowenu esiba ngumyanga, lesandla sakhe sixega kuwe, uzamsekela: Owemzini lohlezi njengowezizwe, ukuze aphile lawe.
And if he will become impoverished brother your and it will slip hand his with you and you will strengthen him a sojourner and a resident alien and he will live with you.
36 Ungathathi kuye umvuzo lenzuzo, kodwa wesabe uNkulunkulu wakho, ukuze umfowenu aphile lawe.
May not you take from with him interest and profit and you will fear from God your and he will live brother your with you.
37 Ungamuphi imali yakho ngenzalo, futhi ungaphi ukudla kwakho ngenzuzo.
Silver your not you will give to him for interest and for profit not you will give food your.
38 NgiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu owalikhupha elizweni leGibhithe ukulinika ilizwe leKhanani, ukuze ngibe nguNkulunkulu wenu.
I [am] Yahweh God your who I brought out you from [the] land of Egypt to give to you [the] land of Canaan to become for you God.
39 Uba-ke umfowenu olawe esiba ngumyanga, azithengise kuwe, ungamenzi asebenze njengesigqili;
And if he will become impoverished brother your with you and he will sell himself to you not you will labor by him [the] labor of a slave.
40 uzakuba lawe njengoqhatshiweyo, njengohlala njengowezizwe, asebenze kuwe kuze kufike umnyaka wejubili.
Like a hired laborer like a resident alien he will be with you until [the] year of the jubilee he will serve with you.
41 Khona ezaphuma kuwe, yena labantwana bakhe laye, abuyele kwabomdeni wakhe, abuyele elifeni laboyise.
And he will go out from with you he and sons his with him and he will return to clan his and to [the] possession of ancestors his he will return.
42 Ngoba ziyizinceku zami engazikhupha elizweni leGibhithe; kaziyikuthengiswa ngokuthengiswa kwesigqili.
For [are] servants my they whom I brought out them from [the] land of Egypt not they will be sold a sale of a slave.
43 Ungambusi nzima, kodwa wesabe uNkulunkulu wakho.
Not you will rule over him with harshness and you will fear from God your.
44 Lesigqili sakho lesigqilikazi sakho ozakuba lazo, zizavela ezizweni ezilizingelezeleyo; kuzo lizathenga isigqili kumbe isigqilikazi.
And [male] slave your and female slave your who they will belong to you from with the nations which [are] around you from them you will buy a [male] slave and a female slave.
45 Futhi-ke ebantwaneni balabo abahlala njengabemzini abahlala njengabezizwe lani, kubo lingazithenga lakuzizukulwana zabo ezilani, abazizalela elizweni lakini, njalo bazakuba yimfuyo yenu.
And also some of [the] children of the resident aliens who sojourn with you from them you will buy and from clan their which [is] with you which they have fathered in land your and they will belong to you to a possession.
46 Njalo lizazenza abafuyi bazo lisenzela abantwana benu emva kwenu ukuze badle ilifa lemfuyo; lizabasebenzisa kuze kube nininini. Kodwa phakathi kwabafowenu, abantwana bakoIsrayeli, kaliyikubusa nzima, omunye phezu komunye.
And you will give as an inheritance them to sons your after you to take possession of a possession for ever by them you will labor and over brothers your [the] people of Israel each over brother his not you will rule over him with harshness.
47 Uba-ke isandla sowezizweni loba sowemzini ohlala lawe sesifinyelele enothweni, lomfowenu olaye abe ngumyanga, azithengise kowemzini, owezizweni ohlala lawe, kumbe kusendo lwesizukulwana sowemzini,
And if it will reach [the] hand of a sojourner and a resident alien with you and he will become impoverished brother your with him and he will sell himself to a sojourner a resident alien with you or to a member of [the] clan of a sojourner.
48 esezithengisile kungaba lokuhlengwa kwakhe; omunye wabafowabo angamhlenga,
After he has sold himself a right of redemption it will belong to him one of brothers his he will redeem him.
49 loba umfowabo kayise, loba umtanomfowabo kayise angamhlenga, kumbe isihlobo sakhe segazi emdeni wakhe singamhlenga; uba isandla sakhe sesifinyelele enothweni, angazihlenga.
Or uncle his or [the] son of uncle his he will redeem him or any of [the] relative[s] of flesh his from clan his he will redeem him or it has reached hand his and he will redeem himself.
50 Uzabalisana lowamthengayo, kusukela emnyakeni owazithengisa kuye ngawo kuze kufike umnyaka wejubili; ukuze imali yentengiso yakhe izakuba njengenani leminyaka, njengensuku zoqhatshiweyo kuzakuba njalo ngaye.
And he will calculate with [the] [one who] bought him from [the] year he sold himself to him until [the] year of the jubilee and it will be [the] silver of sale his by [the] number of years according to [the] days of a hired laborer he will be with him.
51 Uba kuseleminyaka eminengi, ngokungayo uzabuyisela uhlengo lwakhe, emalini yokuthengwa kwakhe.
If still many in the years to mouth their he will repay redemption his some of [the] silver of purchase his.
52 Uba-ke kusele iminyaka emilutshwana kuze kufike umnyaka wejubili, uzabalisana laye; njengokweminyaka yakhe uzabuyisela uhlengo lwakhe.
And if few it remains in the years until [the] year of the jubilee and he will calculate for himself according to [the] mouth of years his he will repay redemption his.
53 Uzakuba laye njengoqhatshiweyo iminyaka ngeminyaka; kayikumbusa nzima phambi kwamehlo akho.
Like a hired laborer of a year in a year he will be with him not he will rule over him with harshness to eyes your.
54 Kodwa uba engahlengwanga ngalokhu, uzaphuma ngomnyaka wejubili, yena labantwana bakhe kanye laye.
And if not he will be redeemed in these [ways] and he will go out in [the] year of the jubilee he and sons his with him.
55 Ngoba kimi abantwana bakoIsrayeli bazinceku, bazinceku zami engazikhupha elizweni leGibhithe. NgiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wenu.
For of me [the] people of Israel [are] servants [are] servants my they whom I brought out them from [the] land of Egypt I [am] Yahweh God your.
