«فِي آخِرِ سَبْعِ سِنِينَ تَعْمَلُ إِبْرَاءً. ١ 1
At the end of every seven years, you shall cancel debts.
وَهَذَا هُوَ حُكْمُ ٱلْإِبْرَاءِ: يُبْرِئُ كُلُّ صَاحِبِ دَيْنٍ يَدَهُ مِمَّا أَقْرَضَ صَاحِبَهُ. لَا يُطَالِبُ صَاحِبَهُ وَلَا أَخَاهُ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ نُودِيَ بِإِبْرَاءٍ لِلرَّبِّ. ٢ 2
This is the way it shall be done: every creditor shall release that which he has lent to his neighbor. He shall not require payment from his neighbor and his brother; because Adonai’s release has been proclaimed.
ٱلْأَجْنَبِيَّ تُطَالِبُ، وَأَمَّا مَا كَانَ لَكَ عِنْدَ أَخِيكَ فَتُبْرِئُهُ يَدُكَ مِنْهُ. ٣ 3
Of a foreigner you may require it; but whatever of yours is with your brother, your hand shall release.
إِلَّا إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِيكَ فَقِيرٌ. لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِنَّمَا يُبَارِكُكَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ نَصِيبًا لِتَمْتَلِكَهَا. ٤ 4
However there shall be no poor with you (for Adonai will surely bless you in the land which Adonai your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it)
إِذَا سَمِعْتَ صَوْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ لِتَحْفَظَ وَتَعْمَلَ كُلَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْوَصَايَا ٱلَّتِي أَنَا أُوصِيكَ ٱلْيَوْمَ، ٥ 5
if only you sh'ma ·hear obey· sh'ma ·hear obey· Adonai your God’s voice, to observe to do all this mitzvot ·instructions· which I am enjoining to you today.
يُبَارِكُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ كَمَا قَالَ لَكَ. فَتُقْرِضُ أُمَمًا كَثِيرَةً وَأَنْتَ لَا تَقْتَرِضُ، وَتَتَسَلَّطُ عَلَى أُمَمٍ كَثِيرَةٍ وَهُمْ عَلَيْكَ لَا يَتَسَلَّطُونَ. ٦ 6
For Adonai your God will bless you, as he promised you. You will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow. You will rule over many nations, but they will not rule over you.
«إِنْ كَانَ فِيكَ فَقِيرٌ، أَحَدٌ مِنْ إِخْوَتِكَ فِي أَحَدِ أَبْوَابِكَ فِي أَرْضِكَ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ، فَلَا تُقَسِّ قَلْبَكَ، وَلَا تَقْبِضْ يَدَكَ عَنْ أَخِيكَ ٱلْفَقِيرِ، ٧ 7
If a poor man, one of your brothers, is with you within any of your gates in your land which Adonai your God gives you, you shall not harden your heart, nor shut your hand from your poor brother;
بَلِ ٱفْتَحْ يَدَكَ لَهُ وَأَقْرِضْهُ مِقْدَارَ مَا يَحْتَاجُ إِلَيْهِ. ٨ 8
but you shall surely open your hand to him, and shall surely lend him sufficient for his need, which he lacks.
ٱحْتَرِزْ مِنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ مَعَ قَلْبِكَ كَلَامٌ لَئِيمٌ قَائِلًا: قَدْ قَرُبَتِ ٱلسَّنَةُ ٱلسَّابِعَةُ، سَنَةُ ٱلْإِبْرَاءِ، وَتَسُوءُ عَيْنُكَ بِأَخِيكَ ٱلْفَقِيرِ وَلَا تُعْطِيهِ، فَيَصْرُخَ عَلَيْكَ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فَتَكُونُ عَلَيْكَ خَطِيَّةٌ. ٩ 9
Beware that there not be a base thought in your heart, saying, “The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand;” and your eye be evil against your poor brother, and you give him nothing; and he cry to Adonai against you, and it be sin to you.
أَعْطِهِ وَلَا يَسُوءْ قَلْبُكَ عِنْدَمَا تُعْطِيهِ، لِأَنَّهُ بِسَبَبِ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ يُبَارِكُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ فِي كُلِّ أَعْمَالِكَ وَجَمِيعِ مَا تَمْتَدُّ إِلَيْهِ يَدُكَ. ١٠ 10
You shall surely give, and your heart shall not be grieved when you give to him; because that for this thing Adonai your God will bless you in all your work, and in all that you put your hand to.
لِأَنَّهُ لَا تُفْقَدُ ٱلْفُقَرَاءُ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ. لِذَلِكَ أَنَا أُوصِيكَ قَائِلًا: ٱفْتَحْ يَدَكَ لِأَخِيكَ ٱلْمِسْكِينِ وَٱلْفَقِيرِ فِي أَرْضِكَ. ١١ 11
For the poor will never cease out of the land. Therefore I enjoin you to surely open your hand to your brother, to your needy, and to your poor, in your land.
«إِذَا بِيعَ لَكَ أَخُوكَ ٱلْعِبْرَانِيُّ أَوْ أُخْتُكَ ٱلْعِبْرَانِيَّةُ وَخَدَمَكَ سِتَّ سِنِينَ، فَفِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلسَّابِعَةِ تُطْلِقُهُ حُرًّا مِنْ عِنْدِكَ. ١٢ 12
If your brother, a Hebrew [Immigrant] man, or a Hebrew woman, is sold to you, and serves you six years; then in the seventh year you shall let him go free from you.
وَحِينَ تُطْلِقُهُ حُرًّا مِنْ عِنْدِكَ لَا تُطْلِقُهُ فَارِغًا. ١٣ 13
When you let him go free from you, you shall not let him go empty.
تُزَوِّدُهُ مِنْ غَنَمِكَ وَمِنْ بَيْدَرِكَ وَمِنْ مَعْصَرَتِكَ. كَمَا بَارَكَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ تُعْطِيهِ. ١٤ 14
You shall furnish him liberally out of your flock, out of your threshing floor, and out of your wine press. As Adonai your God has blessed you, you shall give to him.
وَٱذْكُرْ أَنَّكَ كُنْتَ عَبْدًا فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، فَفَدَاكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ. لِذَلِكَ أَنَا أُوصِيكَ بِهَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ ٱلْيَوْمَ. ١٥ 15
You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], and Adonai your God redeemed you. Therefore I enjoin you this thing today.
وَلَكِنْ إِذَا قَالَ لَكَ: لَا أَخْرُجُ مِنْ عِنْدِكَ. لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ أَحَبَّكَ وَبَيْتَكَ، إِذْ كَانَ لَهُ خَيْرٌ عِنْدَكَ، ١٦ 16
It shall be, if he tells you, “I will not go out from you,” because he 'ahav ·affectionately loves· you and your house, because he is well with you;
فَخُذِ ٱلْمِخْرَزَ وَٱجْعَلْهُ فِي أُذُنِهِ وَفِي ٱلْبَابِ، فَيَكُونَ لَكَ عَبْدًا مُؤَبَّدًا. وَهَكَذَا تَفْعَلُ لِأَمَتِكَ أَيْضًا. ١٧ 17
then you shall take an awl, and thrust it through his ear to the door, and he shall be your servant forever. Also to your female servant you shall do likewise.
لَا يَصْعُبْ عَلَيْكَ أَنْ تُطْلِقَهُ حُرًّا مِنْ عِنْدِكَ، لِأَنَّهُ ضِعْفَيْ أُجْرَةِ ٱلْأَجِيرِ خَدَمَكَ سِتَّ سِنِينَ. فَيُبَارِكُكَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ فِي كُلِّ مَا تَعْمَلُ. ١٨ 18
It shall not seem hard to you, when you let him go free from you; for he has been double value of a hired hand as he served you six years. Adonai your God will bless you in all that you do.
«كُلُّ بِكْرٍ ذَكَرٍ يُولَدُ مِنْ بَقَرِكَ وَمِنْ غَنَمِكَ تُقَدِّسُهُ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. لَا تَشْتَغِلْ عَلَى بِكْرِ بَقَرِكَ وَلَا تَجُزَّ بِكْرَ غَنَمِكَ. ١٩ 19
You shall dedicate all the firstborn males that are born of your herd and of your flock to Adonai your God. You shall do no work with the firstborn of your herd, nor shear the firstborn of your flock.
أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ تَأْكُلُهُ سَنَةً بِسَنَةٍ، فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي يَخْتَارُهُ ٱلرَّبُّ، أَنْتَ وَبَيْتُكَ. ٢٠ 20
You shall eat it before Adonai your God year by year in the place which Adonai shall choose, you and your household.
وَلَكِنْ إِذَا كَانَ فِيهِ عَيْبٌ، عَرَجٌ أَوْ عَمًى، عَيْبٌ مَّا رَدِيءٌ، فَلَا تَذْبَحْهُ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ. ٢١ 21
If it has any defect, is lame or blind, or has any defect whatever, you shall not sacrifice it to Adonai your God.
فِي أَبْوَابِكَ تَأْكُلُهُ. ٱلنَّجِسُ وَٱلطَّاهِرُ سَوَاءً كَٱلظَّبْيِ وَٱلْأُيَّلِ. ٢٢ 22
You shall eat it within your gates. The unclean and the clean shall eat it alike, as the gazelle, and as the deer.
وَأَمَّا دَمُهُ فَلَا تَأْكُلُهُ. عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ تَسْفِكُهُ كَٱلْمَاءِ. ٢٣ 23
Only you shall not eat its blood. You shall pour it out on the ground like water.
