Lewwota 25
1 Waaqayyo Gaara Siinaa irratti Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And Yhwh spake unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying,
2 “Akkana jedhii Israaʼelootatti himi: ‘Yommuu biyya ani isinii kennutti galtan, biyyattiin mataan ishee sanbata Waaqayyoo haa kabajju.
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto Yhwh.
3 Waggaa jaʼa lafa qotiisaa kee facaafadhu; waggaa jaʼa immoo wayinii kee irraa qori; ija isaas walitti qabadhu.
Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years thou shalt prune thy vineyard, and gather in the fruit thereof;
4 Waggaa torbaffaatti garuu lafti sanbata boqonnaa haa qabaatu; kunis sanbata Waaqayyoof kabajamuu dha. Lafa qotiisaa kee hin facaafatin yookaan wayinii kee irraa hin qorin.
But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of rest unto the land, a sabbath for Yhwh: thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard.
5 Waan ofiin biqile hin haammatin yookaan wayinii hin qoramin irraa ija walitti hin qabatin. Lafti boqonnaa waggaa tokkoo haa argattu.
That which groweth of its own accord of thy harvest thou shalt not reap, neither gather the grapes of thy vine undressed: for it is a year of rest unto the land.
6 Wanni lafti waggaa sanbataatti kennitu nyaata kee haa taʼu jechuunis siʼi mataa keetiif, garboota kee dhiiraa fi dubartiidhaaf, warra qaxaramanii hojjetanii fi alagoota yeroodhaaf si wajjin jiraataniif nyaata haa taʼu;
And the sabbath of the land shall be meat for you; for thee, and for thy servant, and for thy maid, and for thy hired servant, and for thy stranger that sojourneth with thee,
7 akkasumas horii keetii fi bineensa daggalaa kanneen biyya kee keessa jiraataniif nyaata haa taʼu. Wanni lafti baaftu kam iyyuu haa nyaatamu.
And for thy cattle, and for the beast that are in thy land, shall all the increase thereof be meat.
8 “‘Waggoota sanbataa torba jechuunis waggoota torba yeroo torba lakkaaʼi; waggoonni sanbataa torban waggoota afurtamii sagal taʼu.
And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall be unto thee forty and nine years.
9 Guyyaa kurnaffaa jiʼa torbaffaatti immoo guutummaa biyya keessanii keessatti malakata dhageessisi; Guyyaa Araarri Buʼuttis guutummaa biyyaa keessatti malakata dhageessisaa.
Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land.
10 Waggaa shantamaffaa qulqulleessaatii guutummaa biyyattii keessatti jiraattota hundaaf bilisummaa labsaa. Kunis iyyoobeeliyyuu isinii taʼa; tokkoon tokkoon namaa deebiʼee gara qabeenya isaattii fi gara maatii isaatti haa galu.
And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.
11 Waggaan shantamaffaan iyyoobeeliyyuu isiniif haa taʼu; hin facaafatinaa; waan ofiin biqile hin haammatinaa; wayinii hin qoramin irraas ija isaa walitti hin qabatinaa.
A jubile shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow, neither reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of thy vine undressed.
12 Kun sababii iyyoobeeliyyuu taʼeef qulqulluu isiniif haa taʼu; waan lafa qotiisaa irraa galfamu nyaadhaa.
For it is the jubile; it shall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.
13 “‘Waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuu kana keessa tokkoon tokkoon namaa gara qabeenya isaatti haa deebiʼu.
In the year of this jubile ye shall return every man unto his possession.
14 “‘Yoo nama saba kee taʼetti lafa gurgurte yookaan waan tokko isa irraa bitte, wal hin gowwoomsinaa.
And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest ought of thy neighbour’s hand, ye shall not oppress one another:
15 Ati waggoota waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuu booddee jiran irratti hundooftee nama saba keetii irraa bitadhu. Innis baayʼina waggoota galchaa midhaanii lakkaaʼee sitti haa gurguru.
According to the number of years after the jubile thou shalt buy of thy neighbour, and according unto the number of years of the fruits he shall sell unto thee:
16 Yoo waggaan baayʼee taʼe gatii isaa dabaliif; yoo waggaan isaa gabaabaa taʼe immoo gatii isaa hirʼisi; sababiin isaa wanni inni sitti gurguru baayʼina midhaanii ti.
According to the multitude of years thou shalt increase the price thereof, and according to the fewness of years thou shalt diminish the price of it: for according to the number of the years of the fruits doth he sell unto thee.
17 Wal hin cunqursinaa; garuu Waaqa sodaadhaa. Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan.
Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy God: for I am Yhwh your God.
18 “‘Ajaja koo duukaa buʼaa; seera koo illee eegaa; isinis biyyattii keessa nagaan ni jiraattu.
Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.
19 Lafti ija ni kenniti; isinis hamma quuftanitti nyaattu; nagaadhaanis ni jiraattu.
And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.
20 Isinis, “Nu yoo facaafachuu yookaan midhaan keenya walitti qabachuu baanne waggaa torbaffaatti maal nyaanna?” jettanii gaafattu taʼa.
And if ye shall say, What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase:
21 Akka lafti midhaan waggaa sadiif gaʼu isinii kennituuf ani waggaa jaʼaffaatti eebba koo isiniif nan erga.
Then I will command my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for three years.
22 Yeroo waggaa saddeettaffaatti facaafattanittis waanuma duraan galfattan irraa nyaattu; hamma midhaan waggaa saglaffaa walitti qabattanitti midhaanuma kana nyaattu.
And ye shall sow the eighth year, and eat yet of old fruit until the ninth year; until her fruits come in ye shall eat of the old store.
23 “‘Lafti sababii kanuma koo taateef bara baraan hin gurguramin; isin anaaf alagaa fi keessummoota.
The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine; for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.
24 Biyya akka dhaalaatti qabattan guutuu keessatti waan ittiin lafa furtan baasaa.
And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.
25 “‘Obboleessi kee tokko hiyyoomee lafa isaa yoo gurgure, namni fira isaa kan dhiʼoo taʼe dhufee waan firri isaa gurgure sana haa furuuf.
If thy brother be waxen poor, and hath sold away some of his possession, and if any of his kin come to redeem it, then shall he redeem that which his brother sold.
26 Garuu yoo namichi sun fira lafa isaa furuuf dhabee inni mataan isaa waan ittiin lafa isaa furatu argate,
And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be able to redeem it;
27 waggoota yeroo inni lafa isaa gurgure sanaa as jiran lakkaaʼee namicha itti gurgure sanaaf maallaqa isaa haa deebisu; innis gara lafa ofiitti haa deebiʼu.
Then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; that he may return unto his possession.
28 Garuu yoo waan namicha sanaaf deebisu dhabee, wanni inni gurgure sun hamma waggaa iyyoobeeliyyuutti harkuma namicha bite sanaa haa turu. Waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuu keessa ni deebiʼaaf; innis gara qabeenya isaatti ni deebiʼa.
But if he be not able to restore it to him, then that which is sold shall remain in the hand of him that hath bought it until the year of jubile: and in the jubile it shall go out, and he shall return unto his possession.
29 “‘Namni yoo magaalaa dallaa qabdu keessatti mana jireenyaa gurgurate, gaafa gurguratee jalqabee waggaa tokko keessatti furachuu dandaʼa. Mirgi furachuu isaas hamma waggaa tokkootti tura.
And if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; within a full year may he redeem it.
30 Yoo utuu waggaan tokko hin guutin furamuu baate manni magaalaa dallaa qabdu keessatti argamu sun qabeenya namicha biteetii fi kan sanyii isaa taʼee hafa. Waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuuttis hin deebiʼu.
And if it be not redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city shall be established for ever to him that bought it throughout his generations: it shall not go out in the jubile.
31 Manneen gandoota dallaan itti hin ijaaramin keessa jiran garuu waan akka lafa baadiyyaatti hedamaniif furamuu dandaʼu. Bara Iyyoobeeliyyuuttis ni deebifamu.
But the houses of the villages which have no wall round about them shall be counted as the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubile.
32 “‘Lewwonni garuu manneen isaanii kanneen magaalaawwan isaanii keessatti argaman furachuuf yeroo kam iyyuu mirga qabu.
Notwithstanding the cities of the Levites, and the houses of the cities of their possession, may the Levites redeem at any time.
33 Qabeenyi Lewwotaa furamuu ni dandaʼa; manneen magaalaa isaan qabatan keessatti gurguraman bara Iyyoobeeliyyuutti ni deebifamu; manneen magaalaa Lewwotaa keessatti argaman Israaʼeloota gidduutti qabeenya Lewwotaatii.
And if a man purchase of the Levites, then the house that was sold, and the city of his possession, shall go out in the year of jubile: for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.
34 Lafti dheedaa kan naannoo magaalaa isaaniitti argamu garuu sababii qabeenya isaanii kan bara baraa taʼeef hin gurguramin.
But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not be sold; for it is their perpetual possession.
35 “‘Yoo obboleessi kee tokko hiyyoomee isin gidduutti of gargaaruu dadhabe, akka inni isin gidduu jiraachuu dandaʼuuf akkuma alagaa yookaan keessummaa tokko gargaartutti isa gargaar.
And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay with thee; then thou shalt relieve him: yea, though he be a stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with thee.
36 Akka namni sun si wajjin jiraachuu dandaʼuuf Waaqa kee sodaadhu malee dhala tokko iyyuu isa irraa hin fudhatin.
Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy God; that thy brother may live with thee.
37 Maallaqa kee dhalaan hin liqeessiniif yookaan nyaata kee buʼaa itti herregattee hin kenniniif.
Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals for increase.
38 Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan kan biyya Kanaʼaan isiniif kennuu fi Waaqa keessan taʼuuf biyya Gibxii isin baasee dha.
I am Yhwh your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.
39 “‘Yoo obboleessi kee tokko hiyyoomee sitti of gurgure akka garbichaatti isa hin hojjechiifatin.
And if thy brother that dwelleth by thee be waxen poor, and be sold unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:
40 Inni akka hojjetaa qaxaramaa yookaan nama yeroodhaaf isin wajjin jiraatuu haa taʼu; inni hamma Waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuutti siif haa hojjetu.
But as an hired servant, and as a sojourner, he shall be with thee, and shall serve thee unto the year of jubile:
41 Ergasii inni ijoollee isaa wajjin gad haa lakkifamu; inni gara maatii isaatii fi qabeenya abbootii isaatti haa deebiʼu.
And then shall he depart from thee, both he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.
42 Israaʼeloonni sababii garboota koo warra ani biyya Gibxiitii baasee fide taʼaniif akka garbootaatti hin gurguramin.
For they are my servants, which I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondmen.
43 Waaqa kee sodaadhu malee gara jabinaan isaan hin bulchin.
Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt fear thy God.
44 “‘Garboonni kee dhiironnii fi dubartoonni saboota naannoo kee jiraatan gidduudhaa haa dhufan; isin isaan keessaa garboota bitachuu dandeessu.
Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have, shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids.
45 Akkasumas keessummoota isin gidduu jiraatanii fi maatii isaanii warra biyya keessanitti dhalatan keessaa garboota bitachuu dandeessu; isaanis qabeenya keessan haa taʼan.
Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.
46 Akka qabeenya dhaalamuutti ijoollee keessanitti dabarsuu dandeessu; bara jireenya isaanii guutuus isaan garboomfachuu dandeessu; Israaʼeloota obboloota keessan taʼan garuu gara jabinaan hin bulchinaa.
And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever: but over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not rule one over another with rigour.
47 “‘Yoo alagaan yookaan keessummaan si wajjin jiraatu tokko sooromee obboleessi kee immoo hiyyoomee alagaa si wajjin jiraatutti yookaan maatii alagaa sanaatti of gurgure,
And if a sojourner or stranger wax rich by thee, and thy brother that dwelleth by him wax poor, and sell himself unto the stranger or sojourner by thee, or to the stock of the stranger’s family:
48 inni erga of gurguree booddee furamuuf mirga qaba. Firoota isaa keessaas namni tokko isa furuu dandaʼa.
After that he is sold he may be redeemed again; one of his brethren may redeem him:
49 Obboleessi abbaa isaa yookaan ilmi obboleessa abbaa isaa yookaan aantee isaa keessaa firri dhiigaa isa furuu dandaʼa. Yookaan inni iyyuu yoo soorome of furuu dandaʼa.
Either his uncle, or his uncle’s son, may redeem him, or any that is nigh of kin unto him of his family may redeem him; or if he be able, he may redeem himself.
50 Innii fi namichi isa bite sun waggaa inni itti of gurguree jalqabee hamma waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuutti haa lakkaaʼan. Gatiin furii isaas baayʼina waggoota sanaa irratti hundaaʼa; yeroon inni namicha isa bitate sana bira ture immoo akka nama qacaramee hojjete tokkootti herregama.
And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he was sold to him unto the year of jubile: and the price of his sale shall be according unto the number of years, according to the time of an hired servant shall it be with him.
51 Yoo akka herrega isaaniitti waggoonni baayʼeen hafan inni gatii ittiin bitame sana keessaa harka baayʼee namicha sanaaf deebisuu qaba.
If there be yet many years behind, according unto them he shall give again the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for.
52 Yoo waggoonni hamma Waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuutti hafan muraasa taʼan inni waggoota hafan sana herregatee gatii furama isaa haa kaffalu.
And if there remain but few years unto the year of jubile, then he shall count with him, and according unto his years shall he give him again the price of his redemption.
53 Inni akkuma nama waggaa waggaatti qaxaramu tokkootti isa wajjin haa jiraatu; fuula kee durattis inni gara jabinaan isa hin bulchin.
And as a yearly hired servant shall he be with him: and the other shall not rule with rigour over him in thy sight.
54 “‘Yoo inni karaa kanneeniin furamuu baates innii fi ijoolleen isaa Waggaa Iyyoobeeliyyuutti furamuu qabu;
And if he be not redeemed in these years, then he shall go out in the year of jubile, both he, and his children with him.
55 Israaʼeloonni garboota kootii. Isaan garboota koo kanneen ani biyya Gibxii baasee fidee dha. Ani Waaqayyo Waaqa keessan.
For unto me the children of Israel are servants; they are my servants whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: I am Yhwh your God.
