Leviticus 25
1 Olúwa sọ fún Mose ní orí òkè Sinai pé,
Yahweh spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai, saying,
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.
“Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, 'When you come into the land that I give you, then the land must be made to keep a Sabbath for Yahweh.
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.
You must plant your field for six years, and for six years you must prune your vineyard and gather the produce.
4 Ṣùgbọ́n ní ọdún keje kí ilẹ̀ náà ní ìsinmi: ìsinmi fún Olúwa. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ tọ́jú ọgbà àjàrà rẹ.
But in the seventh year, a Sabbath of solemn rest for the land must be observed, a Sabbath for Yahweh. You must not plant your field or prune your vineyard.
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.
You must not conduct an organized harvest of whatever grows by itself, and you must not conduct an organized harvest of whatever grapes grow on your unpruned vines. This will be a year of solemn 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.
Whatever the unworked land grows during the Sabbath year will be food for you. You, your male and female servants, your hired servants and the foreigners who live with you may gather food,
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 your livestock and also wild animals may eat whatever the land produces.
8 “‘Ọdún ìsinmi méje èyí tí í ṣe ọdún mọ́kàndínláàádọ́ta ni kí ẹ kà.
You must count off seven Sabbaths of years, that is, seven times seven years, so that there will be seven Sabbaths of years, totaling 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 you must blow a loud trumpet everywhere on the tenth day of the seventh month. On the Day of Atonement you must blow a trumpet throughout 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.
You must set apart the fiftieth year to Yahweh and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It will be a Jubilee for you, in which property and slaves must be returned to their families.
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.
The fiftieth year will be a Jubilee for you. You must not plant or conduct an organized harvest. Eat whatever grows by itself, and gather the grapes that grow on the unpruned 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 a Jubilee, which will be holy for you. You must eat the produce that grows by itself out of the fields.
13 “‘Ní ọdún ìdásílẹ̀ yìí, kí olúkúlùkù gbà ohun ìní rẹ̀ padà.
You must return everyone to his own property in this year of Jubilee.
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.
If you sell any land to your neighbor or buy any land from your neighbor, you must not cheat or wrong each other.
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.
If you buy land from your neighbor, consider the number of years and crops that can be harvested until the next Jubilee. Your neighbor selling the land must consider that also.
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.
A larger number of years until the next Jubilee will increase the value of land, and a smaller number of years until the next Jubilee will decrease the value, because the number of harvests the land will produce for the new owner is related to the number of years before the next Jubilee.
17 Ẹ má ṣe rẹ́ ara yín jẹ, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run. Èmi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín.
You must not cheat or wrong one another; instead, you must honor your God, for I am Yahweh 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.
Therefore you must obey my decrees, keep my laws, and carry them out. Then you will live in the land in safety.
19 Nígbà yìí ni ilẹ̀ náà yóò so èso rẹ̀, ẹ ó sì jẹ àjẹyó, ẹ ó sì máa gbé láìléwu.
The land will yield its produce, and you will eat your fill and live there in safety.
20 Ẹ le béèrè pé, “Kí ni àwa ó jẹ ní ọdún keje, bí a kò bá gbin èso tí a kò sì kórè?”
You might say, “What will we eat during the seventh year? Look, we cannot plant or gather our produce.”
21 Èmi ó pèsè ìbùkún sórí yín tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí ilẹ̀ yín yóò so èso tó tó fún ọdún mẹ́ta lẹ́yìn rẹ̀.
I will command my blessing to come upon you in the sixth year, and it will produce harvest 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.
You will plant in the eighth year and continue to eat from the previous years' produce and the stored food. Until the harvest of the ninth year comes in, you will be able to eat from the provisions stored in the previous years.
23 “‘Ẹ má ṣe ta ilẹ̀ yín ní àtàpa torí pé ẹ̀yin kọ́ lẹ ni ín, ti Ọlọ́run ni, ẹ̀yin jẹ́ àjèjì àti ayálégbé.
The land must not be sold to a new permanent owner, because the land is mine. You are all foreigners and temporary residents on my land.
24 Ní gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè ìní yín, ẹ fi ààyè sílẹ̀ fún ìràpadà ilẹ̀ náà.
You must observe the right of redemption for all the land that you acquire; you must allow the land to be bought back by the family from whom you bought it.
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 fellow Israelite became poor and for that reason sold some of his property, then his nearest relative may come and buy back the property that he sold to you.
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.
If a man has no relative to redeem his property, but if he has prospered and has the ability to redeem it,
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 he may calculate the years since the land was sold and repay the balance to the man to whom he sold it. Then he may return to his own 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 the land back for himself, then the land he has sold will remain in the ownership of the one who bought it until the year of Jubilee. At the year of Jubilee, the land will be returned to the man who sold it, and the original owner will return to his property.
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.
If a man sells a house in a walled city, then he may buy it back within a whole year after it was sold. For a full year he will have the right of redemption.
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.
If the house is not redeemed within a full year, then the house in the walled city will become the permanent property of the buyer and his descendants. It is not to be returned 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 the houses of the villages that have no wall around them will be considered as the field of the land. They may be redeemed, and they must be returned during 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.
However, the houses owned by the Levites in their cities may be redeemed 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.
If one of the Levites does not redeem a house he sold, then the house that was sold in the city where it is located must be returned in the year of Jubilee, for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their property among the people 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 fields around their cities may not be sold because they are the permanent property of the Levites.
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.
If your fellow countryman becomes poor, so that he can no longer provide for himself, then you must help him as you would help a foreigner or anyone else living as an outsider among you.
36 Ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ gba èlé kankan lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, ẹ bẹ̀rù Olúwa kí arákùnrin yín le è máa gbé láàrín yín.
Do not charge him interest or try to profit from him in any way, but honor your God so that your brother may keep living with 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.
You must not give him a loan of money and charge interest, nor sell him your food to earn a profit.
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 Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, in order that I might give you the land of Canaan, and 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.
If your fellow countryman has become poor and sells himself to you, you must not make him work like a slave.
40 Jẹ́ kí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ bí alágbàṣe tàbí àlejò láàrín yín, kí ó máa ṣiṣẹ́ sìn ọ́ títí di ọdún ìdásílẹ̀.
Treat him as a hired servant. He must be like someone living temporarily with you. He will serve with you until 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 away from you, he and his children with him, and he will return to his own family and to his fathers' property.
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 brought out of the land of Egypt. They will not be sold as slaves.
43 Ẹ má ṣe rorò mọ́ wọn: ṣùgbọ́n ẹ bẹ̀rù Ọlọ́run yín.
You must not rule over them harshly, but you must honor your God.
44 “‘Àwọn ẹrúkùnrin àti ẹrúbìnrin yín lè jẹ́ láti orílẹ̀-èdè tí ó yí yín ká, ẹ lè ra àwọn ẹrú wọ̀nyí lọ́wọ́ wọn.
As for your male and female slaves, whom you can obtain from the nations who live around you, you may buy slaves from them.
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.
You may also buy slaves from the foreigners who are living among you, that is, from their families who are with you, children who have been born in your land. They may become 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.
You may provide such slaves as an inheritance for your children after you, to hold as property, and make them slaves for life, but you must not rule over your brothers among the people of Israel with harshness.
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.
If a foreigner or someone living temporarily with you has become wealthy, and if one of your fellow Israelites has become poor and sells himself to that foreigner, or to someone in a foreigner's 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 your fellow Israelite has been bought, he may be bought back. Someone in his family may redeem him.

It might be the person's uncle, or his uncle's son, who redeems him, or anyone who is his close relative from his family. Or, if he has become prosperous, he may redeem himself.
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.
He must bargain with the man who bought him; they must count the years from the year he sold himself to his purchaser until the year of Jubilee. The price of his redemption must be figured in keeping with the rate paid to a hired servant, for the number of years he might continue to work for the one who bought him.
51 Bí iye ọdún rẹ̀ tí ó ṣẹ́kù bá pọ̀, kí iye owó fún ìràpadà rẹ̀ pọ̀.
If there are still many years until the year of Jubilee, he must pay back as the price for his redemption an amount of money that is in proportion to the number of those years.
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.
If there are only a few years to the year of Jubilee, then he must bargain with his purchaser to reflect the number of years left before the year of Jubilee, and he must pay for his redemption in keeping with the number of years.
53 Bí ẹ ti ń ṣe sí i lọ́dọọdún, ẹ rí i dájú pé olówó rẹ̀ kò korò mọ́ ọ.
He is to be treated like a man hired year by year. You must make sure he is not treated with harshness.
54 “‘Bí a kò bá rà á padà nínú gbogbo ọ̀nà wọ̀nyí, kí ẹ tú òun àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ ní ọdún ìdásílẹ̀.
If he is not redeemed by these means, then he must serve until 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.
To me the people of Israel are servants. They are my servants whom I brought out of the land of Egypt. I am Yahweh your God.'”
