< Leviticus 25 >

1 Olúwa sọ fún Mose ní orí òkè Sinai pé,
And the Lord said to Moses on Mount Sinai,
2 “Sọ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, kí o sì wí fún wọn pé, ‘Nígbà tí ẹ bá dé ilẹ̀ náà tí èmi ó fi fún yín, ilẹ̀ náà gbọdọ̀ sinmi fún Olúwa.
Say to the children of Israel, When you come into the land which I will give you, let the land keep a Sabbath to the Lord.
3 Ọdún mẹ́fà ni ìwọ ó fi gbin oko rẹ, ọdún mẹ́fà ni ìwọ ó fi tọ́jú ọgbà àjàrà rẹ, tí ìwọ ó sì fi kó èso wọn jọ.
For six years put seed into your land, and for six years give care to your vines and get in the produce of them;
4 Ṣùgbọ́n ní ọdún keje kí ilẹ̀ náà ní ìsinmi: ìsinmi fún Olúwa. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ tọ́jú ọgbà àjàrà rẹ.
But let the seventh year be a Sabbath of rest for the land, a Sabbath to the Lord; do not put seed into your land or have your vines cut.
5 Ẹ má ṣe kórè ohun tí ó tìkára rẹ̀ hù, ẹ má ṣe kórè èso àjàrà ọgbà tí ẹ ò tọ́jú. Ilẹ̀ náà gbọdọ̀ ní ìsinmi fún ọdún kan.
That which comes to growth of itself may not be cut, and the grapes of your uncared-for vines may not be taken off; let it be a year of rest for the land.
6 Ohunkóhun tí ilẹ̀ náà bá mú jáde ní ọdún ìsinmi ni yóò jẹ́ oúnjẹ fún yín àní fún ẹ̀yin tìkára yín, àwọn ìránṣẹ́kùnrin àti ìránṣẹ́bìnrin yín, àwọn alágbàṣe àti àwọn tí ń gbé pẹ̀lú yín fún ìgbà díẹ̀.
And the Sabbath of the land will give food for you and your man-servant and your woman-servant and those working for payment, and for those of another country who are living among you;
7 Fún àwọn ohun ọ̀sìn yín, àti àwọn ẹranko búburú ní ilẹ̀ yín. Ohunkóhun tí ilẹ̀ náà bá mú jáde ní ẹ lè jẹ.
And for your cattle and the beasts on the land; all the natural increase of the land will be for food.
8 “‘Ọdún ìsinmi méje èyí tí í ṣe ọdún mọ́kàndínláàádọ́ta ni kí ẹ kà.
And let seven Sabbaths of years be numbered to you, seven times seven years; even the days of seven Sabbaths of years, that is forty-nine years;
9 Lẹ́yìn náà, kí ẹ fọn fèrè ní gbogbo ibikíbi ní ọjọ́ kẹwàá oṣù keje ní ọjọ́ ìwẹ̀nùmọ́. Ní ọjọ́ ètùtù yìí, ẹ fọn fèrè yíká gbogbo ilẹ̀ yín.
Then let the loud horn be sounded far and wide on the tenth day of the seventh month; on the day of taking away sin let the horn be sounded through all your land.
10 Ẹ ya àádọ́ta ọdún náà sọ́tọ̀ kí ẹ sì kéde òmìnira fún gbogbo ẹni tí ń gbé ilẹ̀ náà. Yóò jẹ́ ọdún ìdásílẹ̀ fún yín. Kí olúkúlùkù padà sí ilẹ̀ ìní rẹ̀ àti sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn ẹbí rẹ̀.
And let this fiftieth year be kept holy, and say publicly that everyone in the land is free from debt: it is the Jubilee, and every man may go back to his heritage and to his family.
11 Àádọ́ta ọdún ni yóò jẹ́ ọdún ìdásílẹ̀ fún yín. Ẹ má ṣe gbin ohunkóhun, ẹ kò sì gbọdọ̀ kórè ohun tí ó hù fúnra rẹ̀ tàbí kí ẹ kórè ọgbà àjàrà tí ẹ kò dá.
Let this fiftieth year be the Jubilee: no seed may be planted, and that which comes to growth of itself may not be cut, and the grapes may not be taken from the uncared-for vines.
12 Torí pé ọdún ìdásílẹ̀ ni ó sì gbọdọ̀ jẹ́ mímọ́ fún yín. Ẹ jẹ ohun tí ẹ mú jáde nínú oko náà.
For it is the Jubilee, and it is holy to you; your food will be the natural increase of the field.
13 “‘Ní ọdún ìdásílẹ̀ yìí, kí olúkúlùkù gbà ohun ìní rẹ̀ padà.
In this year of Jubilee, let every man go back to his heritage.
14 “‘Bí ẹ bá ta ilẹ̀ fún ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ènìyàn yín tàbí bí ẹ bá ra èyíkéyìí láti ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, ẹ má ṣe rẹ́ ara yín jẹ.
And in the business of trading goods for money, do no wrong to one another.
15 Kí ẹ ra ilẹ̀ lọ́wọ́ àwọn ènìyàn yín ní gẹ́gẹ́ bí iye owó tí ó kù kí ọdún ìdásílẹ̀ pé, kí òun náà sì ta ilẹ̀ fún yín gẹ́gẹ́ bí iye ọdún rẹ̀ tókù láti kórè.
Let your exchange of goods with your neighbours have relation to the number of years after the year of Jubilee, and the number of times the earth has given her produce.
16 Bí iye ọdún rẹ̀ bá gùn, kí iye owó rẹ̀ pọ̀, bí iye ọdún rẹ̀ bá kúrú, kí iye owó rẹ̀ kéré, torí pé ohun tí ó tà gan an ní iye èso rẹ̀.
If the number of years is great, the price will be increased, and if the number of years is small, the price will be less, for it is the produce of a certain number of years which the man is giving you.
17 Ẹ má ṣe rẹ́ ara yín jẹ, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run. Èmi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín.
And do no wrong, one to another, but let the fear of your God be before you; for I am the Lord your God.
18 “‘Ẹ tẹ̀lé àwọn ìlànà mi, kí ẹ sì kíyèsi láti pa òfin mi mọ́, kí ẹ ba à le máa gbé láìléwu ní ilẹ̀ náà.
So keep my rules and my decisions and do them, and you will be safe in your land.
19 Nígbà yìí ni ilẹ̀ náà yóò so èso rẹ̀, ẹ ó sì jẹ àjẹyó, ẹ ó sì máa gbé láìléwu.
And the land will give her fruit, and you will have food in full measure and be safe in the land.
20 Ẹ le béèrè pé, “Kí ni àwa ó jẹ ní ọdún keje, bí a kò bá gbin èso tí a kò sì kórè?”
And if you say, Where will our food come from in the seventh year, when we may not put in seed, or get in the increase
21 Èmi ó pèsè ìbùkún sórí yín tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ilẹ̀ yín yóò so èso tó tó fún ọdún mẹ́ta lẹ́yìn rẹ̀.
Then I will send my blessing on you in the sixth year, and the land will give fruit enough for three years.
22 Bí ẹ bá gbin èso yín ní ọdún kẹjọ, àwọn èso ti tẹ́lẹ̀ ní ẹ ó máa jẹ, títí tí ìkórè ti ọdún kẹsànán yóò fi dé.
And in the eighth year you will put in your seed, and get your food from the old stores, till the fruit of the ninth year is ready.
23 “‘Ẹ má ṣe ta ilẹ̀ yín ní àtàpa torí pé ẹ̀yin kọ́ lẹ ni ín, ti Ọlọ́run ni, ẹ̀yin jẹ́ àjèjì àti ayálégbé.
No exchange of land may be for ever, for the land is mine, and you are as my guests, living with me for a time.
24 Ní gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ìní yín, ẹ fi ààyè sílẹ̀ fún ìràpadà ilẹ̀ náà.
Wherever there is property in land, the owner is to have the right of getting it back.
25 “‘Bí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ènìyàn yín bá tálákà, dé bi pé ó ta ara àwọn ẹrù rẹ̀, kí ará ilé rẹ̀ tí ó súnmọ́ ọ ra ohun tí ó tà padà.
If your brother becomes poor, and has to give up some of his land for money, his nearest relation may come and get back that which his brother has given up.
26 Ẹni tí kò ní ẹni tó lè rà á padà fún un, tí òun fúnra rẹ̀ sì ti lọ́rọ̀, tí ó sì ní ànító láti rà á.
And if he has no one to get it back for him, and later he himself gets wealth and has enough money to get it back;
27 Kí ó mọ iye owó tí ó jẹ fún iye ọdún tí ó tà á, kí ó dá iye tí ó kù padà fún ẹni tí ó tà á fún, lẹ́yìn náà, ó lè padà sí ilẹ̀ ìní rẹ̀.
Then let him take into account the years from the time when he gave it up, and make up the loss for the rest of the years to him who took it, and so get back his property.
28 Ṣùgbọ́n bí kò bá rí ọ̀nà àti san án padà fún un. Ohun tí ó tà wà ní ìkáwọ́ ẹni tí ó rà á títí di ọdún ìdásílẹ̀. Kí ó dá a padà fún ẹni tí ó ni i ní ọdún ìdásílẹ̀, ẹni tí ó ni í tẹ́lẹ̀ lè tún padà gbà ohun ìní rẹ̀.
But if he is not able to get it back for himself, then it will be kept by him who gave a price for it, till the year of Jubilee; and in that year it will go back to its first owner and he will have his property again.
29 “‘Bí arákùnrin kan bá ta ilé gbígbé kan ní ìlú olódi, kí ó rà á padà ní ìwọ̀n ọdún kan sí àkókò tí ó tà á, ní ìwọ̀n ọdún kan ni kí ó rà á padà.
And if a man gives his house in a walled town for money, he has the right to get it back for the space of a full year after he has given it up.
30 Ṣùgbọ́n bí kò bá rà á padà láàrín ọdún náà ilé náà tí ó wà láàrín ìlú ni kí ó yọ̀ǹda pátápátá fún ẹni tí ó rà á, àti àwọn ìdílé rẹ̀. Kí wọ́n má da padà ní ọdún ìdásílẹ̀.
And if he does not get it back by the end of the year, then the house in the town will become the property of him who gave the money for it, and of his children for ever; it will not go from him in the year of Jubilee.
31 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ilé tí ó wà ní abúlé láìní odi ni kí a kà gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilẹ̀ oko, a lè rà wọ́n padà, kí wọ́n sì da padà ní ọdún ìdásílẹ̀.
But houses in small unwalled towns will be the same as property in the country; they may be got back, and they will go back to their owners in the year of Jubilee.
32 “‘Àwọn ọmọ Lefi ní ẹ̀tọ́, nígbàkígbà láti ra ilẹ̀ wọn, tí ó jẹ́ ohun ìní wọn ní àwọn ìlú tí ó jẹ́ ti ọmọ Lefi.
But the houses in the towns of the Levites may be got back by the Levites at any time.
33 Torí náà ohun ìní àwọn ọmọ Lefi ni wọ́n rà padà, fún àpẹẹrẹ, èyí ni pé ilẹ̀ tí a bá tà ní ìlúkílùú tí ó jẹ́ tiwọn, ó sì gbọdọ̀ di dídápadà ní ọdún ìdásílẹ̀, torí pé àwọn ilẹ̀ tí ó wà ní ìlú àwọn Lefi ni ìní wọn láàrín àwọn ará Israẹli.
And if a Levite does not give money to get back his property, his house in the town which was exchanged for money will come back to him in the year of Jubilee. For the houses of the towns of the Levites are their property among the children of Israel.
34 Ṣùgbọ́n ilẹ̀ tí wọ́n ti ń da ẹran tí ó jẹ́ ti ìlú wọn, wọn kò gbọdọ̀ tà wọ́n, ilẹ̀ ìní wọn láéláé ni.
But the land on the outskirts of their towns may not be exchanged for money, for it is their property for ever.
35 “‘Bí arákùnrin yín kan bá tálákà tí kò sì le è pèsè fún àìní ara rẹ̀, ẹ pèsè fún un bí ẹ ti ń ṣe fún àwọn àlejò tàbí àwọn tí ẹ gbà sílé: kí ó ba à le è máa gbé láàrín yín.
And if your brother becomes poor and is not able to make a living, then you are to keep him with you, helping him as you would a man from another country who is living among you.
36 Ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ gba èlé kankan lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, ẹ bẹ̀rù Olúwa kí arákùnrin yín le è máa gbé láàrín yín.
Take no interest from him, in money or in goods, but have the fear of your God before you, and let your brother make a living among you.
37 Ẹ má ṣe gba èlé lórí owó tí ẹ yá a bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ èrè lórí oúnjẹ tí ẹ tà fún un.
Do not take interest on the money which you let him have or on the food which you give him.
38 Èmi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín tí ó mú yín jáde láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti láti fún yín ní ilẹ̀ Kenaani àti láti jẹ́ Ọlọ́run yín.
I am the Lord your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan, that I might be your God.
39 “‘Bí arákùnrin yín kan bá tálákà dé bi pé ó ta ara rẹ̀ fún ọ bí ẹrú. Má ṣe lò ó bí ẹrú.
And if your brother becomes poor and gives himself to you for money, do not make use of him like a servant who is your property;
40 Jẹ́ kí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ bí alágbàṣe tàbí àlejò láàrín yín, kí ó máa ṣiṣẹ́ sìn ọ́ títí di ọdún ìdásílẹ̀.
But let him be with you as a servant working for payment, till the year of Jubilee;
41 Nígbà náà ni kí ó yọ̀ǹda òun àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, kí wọ́n padà sí ìdílé wọn àti sí ilẹ̀ ìní baba wọn.
Then he will go out from you, he and his children with him, and go back to his family and to the property of his fathers.
42 Torí pé ìránṣẹ́ mi ni àwọn ará Israẹli jẹ́. Ẹni tí mo mú jáde láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá, torí èyí ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ tà wọ́n lẹ́rú.
For they are my servants whom I took out from the land of Egypt; they may not become the property of another.
43 Ẹ má ṣe rorò mọ́ wọn: ṣùgbọ́n ẹ bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run yín.
Do not be a hard master to him, but have the fear of God before you.
44 “‘Àwọn ẹrúkùnrin àti ẹrúbìnrin yín lè jẹ́ láti orílẹ̀-èdè tí ó yí yín ká, ẹ lè ra àwọn ẹrú wọ̀nyí lọ́wọ́ wọn.
But you may get servants as property from among the nations round about; from them you may take men-servants and women-servants.
45 Bákan náà, ẹ sì le è ra àwọn àlejò tí ń gbé láàrín yín, àti àwọn ìdílé wọn tí a bí sáàrín yín. Wọn yóò sì di ohun ìní yín.
And in addition, you may get, for money, servants from among the children of other nations who are living with you, and from their families which have come to birth in your land; and these will be your property.
46 Ẹ lè fi wọ́n sílẹ̀ bí ogún fún àwọn ọmọ yín, wọ́n sì lè sọ wọ́n di ẹrú títí láé. Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ rorò mọ́ ọmọ Israẹli kankan.
And they will be your children's heritage after you, to keep as their property; they will be your servants for ever; but you may not be hard masters to your countrymen, the children of Israel.
47 “‘Bí àlejò kan láàrín yín tàbí ẹni tí ń gbé àárín yín fún ìgbà díẹ̀ bá lọ́rọ̀ tí ọmọ Israẹli sì tálákà dé bi pé ó ta ara rẹ̀ lẹ́rú fún àlejò tàbí ìdílé àlejò náà.
And if one from another nation living among you gets wealth, and your countryman, at his side, becomes poor and gives himself for money to the man from another nation or to one of his family;
48 Ó lẹ́tọ̀ọ́ si ki a rà á padà lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó ti ta ara rẹ̀. Ọ̀kan nínú ìbátan rẹ̀ le è rà á padà.
After he has given himself he has the right to be made free, for a price, by one of his brothers,
49 Àbúrò baba rẹ̀ ọkùnrin tàbí àbúrò rẹ̀ obìnrin tàbí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá tan nínú ìdílé rẹ̀ le è rà wọ̀n padà. Bí ó bá sì ti lọ́rọ̀, ó lè ra ara rẹ̀ padà.
Or his father's brother, or the son of his father's brother, or any near relation; or if he gets money, he may make himself free.
50 Kí òun àti olówó rẹ̀ ka iye ọdún tí ó ta ara rẹ̀ títí dé ọdún ìdásílẹ̀ kí iye owó ìdásílẹ̀ rẹ̀ jẹ́ iye tí wọ́n ń san lórí alágbàṣe fún iye ọdún náà.
And let the years be numbered from the time when he gave himself to his owner till the year of Jubilee, and the price given for him will be in relation to the number of years, on the scale of the payment of a servant.
51 Bí iye ọdún rẹ̀ tí ó ṣẹ́kù bá pọ̀, kí iye owó fún ìràpadà rẹ̀ pọ̀.
If there is still a long time, he will give back, on account of it, a part of the price which was given for him.
52 Bí ó bá sì ṣe pé kìkì ọdún díẹ̀ ni ó kù títí di ọdún jubili, kí ó ṣe ìṣirò rẹ̀, kí ó sì san owó náà bí iye ìṣirò rẹ̀ padà.
And if there is only a short time, he will take account of it with his master, and in relation to the number of years he will give back the price of making him free.
53 Bí ẹ ti ń ṣe sí i lọ́dọọdún, ẹ rí i dájú pé olówó rẹ̀ kò korò mọ́ ọ.
And he will be with him as a servant working for payment year by year; his master is not to be cruel to him before your eyes.
54 “‘Bí a kò bá rà á padà nínú gbogbo ọ̀nà wọ̀nyí, kí ẹ tú òun àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ ní ọdún ìdásílẹ̀.
And if he is not made free in this way, he will go out in the year of Jubilee, he and his children with him.
55 Nítorí pé ìránṣẹ́ ni àwọn ọmọ Israẹli jẹ́ fún mi. Ìránṣẹ́ mi ni wọ́n, tí mo mú jáde láti Ejibiti wá. Èmi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín.
For the children of Israel are servants to me; they are my servants whom I took out of the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.
