व्यवस्था 15
1 हरेक सात वर्षको अन्त्यमा कर्जाहरू रद्द गरिदिनू ।
Every seven years you shall make a release.
2 त्यो काम यसरी गरिने छः हरेक ऋणदाताले आफ्नो छिमेकीलाई दिएको ऋण रद्द गरिदिने छ । त्यसले आफ्नो छिमेकी वा भाइबाट ऋणको माग गर्दैन किनकि परमप्रभुको कर्जामाफीको घोषणा गरिएको छ ।
And this [is] the ordinance of the release: you shall remit every private debt which your neighbour owes you, and you shall not ask payment of it from your brother; for it has been called a release to the Lord your God.
3 तिमीहरूले परदेशीबाट चाहिँ यसको माग गर्न सक्छौ, तर तिम्रो भाइको ऋणचाहिँ फुक्का गरिदेओ ।
Of a stranger you shall ask again whatever he has of your, but to your brother you shall remit his debt to you.
4 तथापि, तिमीहरूका बिचमा कोही गरिब हुनुहुँदैन (किनकि परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूलाई सम्पत्तिको रूपमा अधिकार गर्न दिनुहुने देशमा तिमीहरूलाई निश्चय नै आशिष् दिनुहुने छ) ।
For [thus] there shall not be a poor person in the midst of you, for the Lord your God will surely bless you in the land which the Lord your God gives you by inheritance, that you should inherit it.
5 तर यसको लागि तिमीहरूले आज मैले तिमीहरूलाई दिएका यी सबै आज्ञा पालन गर्न परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको आवाज होसियारीसाथ सुन्नुपर्छ ।
And if you shall indeed listen to the voice of the Lord your God, to keep and do all these commandments, as many as I charge you this day,
6 किनकि परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूसित प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ उहाँले तिमीहरूलाई आशिष् दिनुहुने छ । तिमीहरूले धेरै जातिहरूलाई ऋण दिने छौ, तर तिमीहरूले ऋण लिने छैनौ । तिमीहरूले धेरै जातिहरूमाथि शासन गर्ने छौ, तर तिनीहरूले तिमीहरूमाथि शासन गर्ने छैनन् ।
(for the Lord your God has blessed you in the way of which he spoke to you, ) then you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow; and you shall rule over many nations, but they shall not rule over you.
7 परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई दिन लाग्नुभएको देशको कुनै पनि सहरभित्र तिमीहरूका बिचमा कुनै पनि भाइ गरिब भयो भने तिमीहरूको गरिब भाइप्रति तिमीहरूले आफ्नो हृदय कठोर पार्नुहुँदैन न त मुट्ठी बाँध्नुहुन्छ ।
And if there shall be in the midst of you a poor [man] of your brethren in one of your cities in the land, which the Lord your God gives you, you shall not harden your heart, neither shall you by any means close up your hand from your brother who is in lack.
8 तर तिमीहरूले उसलाई निश्चय नै आफ्नो हात खुला गर्नू, र उसको खाँचोको लागि पर्याप्त मात्रामा ऋण दिनू ।
You shall surely open your hands to him, and shall lend to him as much as he wants according to his need.
9 'सातौँ वर्ष अर्थात् छुटकाराको वर्ष नजिकै छ' भनी आफ्नो मनमा दुष्ट विचार ननिम्त्याउन होसियार होओ ताकि तिमीहरूका बिचमा भएको गरिब भाइप्रति लोभी नभएर तिमीहरूले उसलाई दिन सक । तिमीहरू लोभी भयौ भने त्यो पाप हुन्छ ।
Take heed to yourself that there be not a secret thing in your heart, an iniquity, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, draws near; and your eye shall be evil to your brother that is in lack, and you shall not give to him, and he shall cry against you to the Lord, and there shall be great sin in you.
10 निश्चय नै तिमीहरूले उसलाई दिनू, र तिमीहरूले उसलाई दिँदा हृदयमा दुःख नमान्नू किनकि यसको साटो परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूका सबै काम र तिमीहरूले हात हाल्ने सबै थोकमा आशिष् दिनुहुने छ ।
You shall surely give to him, and you shall lend him as much as he wants, according as he is in need; and you shall not grudge in your heart as you give to him, because on this account the Lord your God will bless you in all your works, and in all things on which you shall lay your hand.
11 किनकि देशमा गरिबहरूको कहिल्यै अन्त्य हुने छैन । त्यसकारण म तिमीहरूलाई आज्ञा दिन्छु, 'तिमीहरूको देशमा खाँचोमा परेको तिमीहरूका भाइ र गरिबको लागि तिमीहरूले आफ्नो हात खुला राख्नू ।'
For the poor shall not fail off your land, therefore I charge you to do this thing, saying, You shall surely open your hands to your poor brother, and to him that is distressed upon your land.
12 तिमीहरूका हिब्रू भाइ या बहिनी तिमीकहाँ बेचिएको छ र त्यसले छ वर्षसम्म सेवा गरेको छ भने सातौँ वर्षमा तिमीहरूले त्यसलाई स्वतन्त्र भएर जान दिनू ।
And if your brother [or sister], a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman, be sold to you, he shall serve you six years, and in the seventh year you shall send him out free from you.
13 तिमीहरूले त्यसलाई स्वतन्त्र भएर जान दिँदा त्यसलाई रित्तो हात नपठाओ ।
And when you shall send him out free from you, you shall not send him out empty.
14 तिमीहरूका भेडा-बाख्रा, खला र दाखको कोलबाट त्यसलाई प्रशस्त मात्रामा लिएर जान देओ । परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई आशिष् दिनुभएमुताबिक त्यसलाई दिनू ।
You shall give him provision for the way from your flock, and from your corn, and from your wine; as the Lord your God has blessed you, you shall give to him.
15 तिमीहरू मिश्र देशमा कमारा थियौ र परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई छुटकारा दिनुभएको थियो भनी तिमीहरूले याद गर्नू । त्यसकारण आज मैले तिमीहरूलाई यो आज्ञा दिँदै छु ।
And you shall remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God redeemed you from thence; therefore I charge you to do this thing.
16 त्यसले तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूको घरलाई माया गरेकोले र तिमीहरूसित राम्ररी बसेकोले 'म तपाईंहरूकहाँबाट जान्नँ' भन्यो भने
And if he should say to you, I will not go out from you, because he continues to love you and your house, because he is well with you;
17 एउटा सुतारो लिएर त्यसको कानको लोती ढोकामा लगाएर छेड्नू, र त्यो जीवनभरि तिमीहरूको कमारो हुने छ । तिमीहरूका कमारीलाई पनि यसै गर्नू ।
then you shall take an awl, and bore his ear through to the door, and he shall be your servant for ever; and in like manner shall you do to your maidservant.
18 त्यसलाई फुक्का भएर जान दिन अप्ठ्यारो नमान्नू किनकि त्यसले छ वर्षसम्म तिमीहरूको सेवा गरेको छ र ज्यालादारी व्यक्तिले गर्ने दोब्बर काम गरेको छ । तिमीहरूले गर्ने सबै काममा परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई आशिष् दिनुहुने छ ।
It shall not seem hard to you when they are sent out free from you, because [your servant] has served you six years according to the annual hire of a hireling; so the Lord your God shall bless you in all things whatever you may do.
19 तिमीहरूका गाईवस्तु र भेडा-बाख्राका सबै पहिले जन्मेकाहरूलाई परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको लागि अलग गर्नू । गाईवस्तुबाट पहिले जन्मेकाहरूलाई कुनै काम नगराउनू न त भेडा-बाख्राबाट पहिले जन्मेकाहरूबाट ऊन कत्रनू ।
Every firstborn that shall be born amongst your kine and your sheep, you shall sanctify the males to the Lord your God; you shall not work with your firstborn calf, and you shall not shear the firstborn of your sheep.
20 परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरले छान्नुहुने ठाउँमा वर्षैपिच्छे उहाँको सामु तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूको घरानाले पहिले जन्मेकोलाई खानू ।
You shall eat it before the Lord year by year in the place which the Lord your God shall choose, you and your house.
21 त्यो लङ्गडा वा अन्धा वा त्यसमा कुनै किसिमको खोट छ भने तिमीहरूले त्यो परमप्रभु तिमीहरूका परमेश्वरको सामु नचढाउनू ।
And if there be in it a blemish, if it be lame or blind, an evil blemish, you shall not sacrifice it to the Lord your God.
22 त्यसलाई तिमीहरूकै सहरभित्र खानू । हरिण वा मृगको मासु खाएझैँ शुद्ध र अशुद्ध व्यक्तिहरूले समान रूपमा खानू ।
You shall eat it in your cities; the unclean in you and the clean shall eat it in like manner, as the doe or the stag.
23 केवल तिमीहरूले यसको रगतचाहिँ नखानू। पानीझैँ गरी यसलाई भुइँमा पोखाइदिनू ।
Only you shall not eat the blood; you shall pour it out on the earth as water.
