Второзаконие 15
1 В седмое лето да сотвориши отпущение.
“At the end of every seven years, you must (cancel all debts/tell people who owe you money that they do not need to pay it back).
2 И сице заповедь отпущения: да оставивши весь долг твой, имже должен ближний тебе, и от брата своего не истяжеши, яко наречеся отпущение Господу Богу твоему.
Do it like this: Each of you who has lent money to a fellow Israeli must cancel that debt. You must not insist that he pay it back. You must do that because Yahweh has declared that the debts must be canceled [every seven years].
3 От чуждаго да истяжеши, елика суть твоя у него: брату же твоему отпущение да сотвориши долга твоего.
[During that year] you may require foreigners [who live among you] to pay what they owe you, but you must not try to require that any fellow Israeli pay you what he owes you.
4 Яко не будет у тебе недостаточен: сего ради словесе благословением благословит тя Господь Бог твои в земли, юже тебе Господь Бог дает во жребий прияти ю.
Yahweh our God will bless you in the land that he is giving to you. If you obey Yahweh our God and obey all the commandments that I am giving to you today, there will not be any poor people among you.
5 Аще же слухом послушаете гласа Господа Бога вашего хранити и творити вся заповеди сия, яже аз заповедаю тебе днесь, яко Господь Бог твой благословил тя есть, якоже глагола тебе,
6 и взаим даси языком многим, ты же не займеши, и обладати будеши ты языки многими, тобою же не возобладают.
Yahweh our God will bless you like he has promised to do, and you will [be able to] lend money to people of other people-groups, but you will not [need to] borrow from any of them. You will control [the finances of] many people-groups, but they will not control your [finances].
7 Аще же брат от братии твоея будет тебе недостаточен во единем от градов твоих в земли, юже Господь Бог твои дает тебе, да не отвратиши сердца твоего, ниже сожмеши руки твоея пред братом твоим требующим:
“In the towns that Yahweh our God is giving to you, if there are any Israelis who are poor, do not be selfish [IDM] and refuse [IDM] to help them.
8 отверзая да отверзеши руку твою ему, и взаим да даси ему, елико просит, и елико ему не достанет.
Instead, be generous [IDM] and lend to them the money that they need.
9 Внемли себе: да не будет слово тайно в сердцы твоем беззакония, глаголя: близ есть седмое лето, лето отпущения, и возлукавнует око твое брату твоему требующему, и не даси ему, и возопиет на тя ко Господу, и будет тебе грех велик:
Be sure that you do not say to yourself, ‘The year when debts will be canceled is near, [so I do not want to lend anyone any money now, because he will not need to pay it back when that year comes].’ It would be evil to even think that. If you act in an unfriendly way toward a needy fellow Israeli, and give him nothing, he will cry out to Yahweh about you, and [Yahweh will say that] you have sinned [by not helping that person].
10 даянием да даси ему, и взаим да даси ему, елико воспросит, якоже требует: и не опечалися в сердцы своем, дающу ти ему, яко сего ради слова благословит тя Господь Бог твой во всех делех твоих, и во всем, на неже возложиши руку твою:
Give freely to poor people and give generously [IDM].
11 ибо не оскудеет недостаточный от земли твоея, сего ради аз заповедаю тебе творити слово сие, глаголя: отверзая отверзи руце твои брату твоему нищему и просящему на земли твоей.
If you do that, Yahweh will bless you in everything that you do. There will always be some poor people in your land, so I command you to give generously to poor [DOU] people.”
12 Аще же продастся тебе брат твой Евреанин, или Евреаныня, да поработает тебе шесть лет, и в седмое да отпустиши его свободна от себе:
“If any of your fellow Israeli men or women sell themselves to one of you [to become your slave], you must free them after they have worked for you for six years. When the seventh year comes, you must free them.
13 егда же пустиши его свободна от себе, да не отпустиши его тща:
When you free them, do not allow them to go (empty-handed/without giving them anything).
14 напутное ему да уготовиши от овец твоих и от пшеницы твоея и от вина твоего: якоже благослови тя Господь Бог твой, да даси ему,
Give to them generously from the things with which Yahweh has blessed you—sheep, grain, and wine.
15 и помяни, яко раб и ты был еси в земли Египетстей, и свободи тя Господь Бог твой оттуду: сего ради аз заповедаю тебе творити слово сие.
Do not forget that your ancestors were once slaves in Egypt, and Yahweh our God freed them. That is the reason that I am now commanding you to do this.
16 Аще же речет к тебе: не отиду от тебе, яко возлюбих тя и дом твой, яко добро есть есть у тебе:
“But one of your slaves may say, ‘I do not want to leave you.’ He loves you and your family, because you have treated him well.
17 да возмеши шило, и провертиши ему ухо пред дверми у степени, и будет ти раб во веки: и рабе твоей сотвориши такожде.
If he says that, take him to the door of your house and, [while he stands against the doorway], pierce one of his earlobes with (an awl/a sharp pointed tool). That will indicate that he will be your slave for the rest of his life. Do the same thing to any female slave [who does not want to leave you].
18 Да не будет жестоко пред тобою, отпущаемым им от тебе свободным, понеже годовую мзду наемничу работа тебе шесть лет: и благословит тя Господь Бог твой во всем, еже твориши.
“Do not complain when you are required to free your slaves. [Keep in mind that] they served you for six years, and you paid them only half as much as you pay the servants that you hire. [If you free them, ] Yahweh our God will bless you in everything that you do.”
19 Всяко первородное, еже родится от волов твоих и от овец твоих, мужеск пол да освятиши Господеви Богу твоему: да не делаеши первородным телцем твоим и да не стрижеши первенца во овцах твоих.
“(Set aside for/Dedicate to) Yahweh our God the firstborn male animals from your cattle and sheep. Do not force them to do any work for you, and do not (shear/cut off) the wool [of the firstborn animals to sell the wool].
20 Пред Господем Богом твоим да яси я от лета до лета, на месте, идеже изберет Господь Бог твои, ты и дом твой.
You and your family may [kill them and] eat their meat in the presence of Yahweh at the place that Yahweh chooses [for you to worship him].
21 Аще же будет на нем порок, хромота, или слепота, и всякий порок зол, да не пожреши его Господу Богу твоему.
But if the animals have any defects, if they are lame or blind, or if they have any other serious defect, you must not sacrifice them to Yahweh our God.
22 Во градех твоих да снеси я: нечистый и чистый у тебе такожде да яст, яко серну или еленя.
You may [kill and] eat [the meat of those animals] at your homes. Those who have done things that cause them to become unacceptable to God and those who have not done such things are permitted to eat that meat, just like anyone is permitted to eat the meat of a deer or an antelope.
23 Токмо крове да не снесте: на землю проливай ю аки воду.
But you must not eat any of the blood; you must drain all the blood on the ground [when you kill those animals].”
