Tim Jo-Lawi 25

1 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa ewi Got Sinai niya,

And the Lord spoke to Moses in the mount Sina, saying,

2 Wuo gi jo-Israel kendo inyisgi ni: Ka gichopo e piny mabiro miyogi, to pinyno nyaka rit Sabato mar Jehova Nyasaye.

Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, Whensoever ye shall have entered into the land, which I give to you, then the land shall rest which I give to you, for its sabbaths to the Lord.

3 Kuom higni auchiel oyienu pidho cham e puotheu, gi loso tiend yiendeu mag mzabibu kendo oyienu kayo chambu kendo pono olembeu.

Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years thou shall prune thy vine, and gather in its fruit.

4 To kochopo higa mar abiriyo to puodho nyaka yud yweyo mar Sabato, ma en Sabato mar Jehova Nyasaye. E higano lowo nyaka yud yweyo ma kik upidh gimoro amora e puotheu mag cham gi mag mzabibu.

But in the seventh year [shall be] a sabbath, it shall be a rest to the land, a sabbath to the Lord: thou shalt not sow thy field, and thou shalt not prune thy vine.

5 E higano kik uka orowe kata kik upon mzabibu monyak kendgi e yien mane ok uloso, nikech en higa ma piny yweyoe.

And thou shalt not gather the spontaneous produce of thy field, and thou shalt not gather fully the grapes of thy dedication: it shall be a year of rest to the land.

6 To gimoro amora ma piny nochiegnu e hik Sabato nobed mar chiembu, chiemb jotichu machwo gi mamon kaachiel gi jotichu mamoko, kod welo molimou kuma udakie kuom ndalo machwok,

And the sabbaths of the land shall be food for thee, and for thy man-servant, and for thy maid-servant, and thy hireling, and the stranger that abides with thee.

7 kendo nobed mar jambu gi le manie pinyu. Gimoro amora ma piny ochiego inyalo cham.

And for thy cattle, and for the wild beats that are in thy land, shall every fruit of it be for food.

8 Waluru Sabato abiriyo mag higni abiriyo nyadibiriyo, tiendeni higni piero angʼwen gochiko.

And thou shalt reckon to thyself seven sabbaths of years, seven times seven years; and they shall be to thee seven weeks of years, nine and forty years.

9 Eka gouru turumbete kamoro amora e odiechiengʼ mar apar mar dwe mar abiriyo, kendo Odiechieng Pwodhruokno gouru turumbete e gwengeu duto.

In the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall make a proclamation with the sound of a trumpet in all your land; on the day of atonement ye shall make a proclamation with a trumpet in all your land.

10 Waluru higa mar piero abich, kendo ugo milome e piny duto ni en higa ma joma otwe igonyo iweyogi gibedo thuolo. Enobed hiku mar mor; ngʼato ka ngʼato nodog thurgi ir joode kendo ir anywolane.

And ye shall sanctify the year, the fiftieth year, and ye shall proclaim a release upon the land to all that inhabit it; it shall be given a year of release, a jubilee for you; and each one shall depart to his possession, and ye shall go each to his family.

11 Higa mar piero abichno nobednu uduto hik mor, kik upidhe cham, kendo kik ukaye orowe, kata kik uponie mzabibu monyak kende e yien mane ok uloso.

This is a jubilee of release, the year shall be to you the fiftieth year: ye shall not sow, nor reap the produce that comes of itself from the land, neither shall ye gather its dedicated fruits.

12 Nimar en higa mar piero abich, kendo mosewalnu maler ni Jehova Nyasaye, nyaka ucham gik monyak e puothe.

For it is a jubilee of release; it shall be holy to you, ye shall eat its fruits off the fields.

13 E higani mar piero abich nyaka ngʼato ka ngʼato odog thurgi.

In the year of the release [even] the jubilee of it, shall [each] one return to his possession.

14 E higani ka ngʼato ongʼiewo lop wadgi to kik wuond moro bedie kindgi.

And if thou shouldest sell a possession to thy neighbour, or if thou shouldest buy of thy neighbour, let not a man oppress his neighbour.

15 Ka ingʼiewo lop wadu nyaka ikwan higni kochakore e higa mar piero abich mokadho. Nyaka oket nengo lopno mana maromre gi higni ma pod ibiro keyoe.

According to the number of years after the jubilee shalt thou buy of thy neighbour, according to the number of years of the fruits shall he sell to thee.

16 Ka hignigo ngʼeny to nyaka imed nengo, to ka higni nok, to nyaka idwok nengo piny, nikech gima ingʼiewo kuome en mana cham mibiro kayo.

According as [there may be] a greater number of years he shall increase [the value of] his possession, and according as [there may be] a less number of years he shall lessen [the value of] his possession; for according to the number of his crops, so shall he sell to thee.

17 Kik ngʼat maa nyawadgi, to luoruru Nyasachu. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.

Let not a man oppress his neighbour, and thou shalt fear the Lord thy God: I am the Lord thy God.

18 Rituru buchena kendo une ni uluwo chikena, eka mondo udag gi kwe e pinyno.

And ye shall keep all my ordinances, and all my judgments; and do ye observe them, and ye shall keep them, and dwell securely in the land.

19 Mano eka lowo nochiegnu cham kendo nuchiem ma uyiengʼ mi unudagi gi kwe.

And the land shall yield her increase, and ye shall eat to fullness, and shall dwell securely in it.

20 Kapo upenjo niya, “Angʼo ma wabiro chamo e higa mar abiriyo ka ok wachwoyo, kata ka ok wakeyo?”

And if ye should say, What shall we eat in this seventh year, if we do not sow nor gather in our fruits?

21 To anadwoku kama: Anaolnu gweth mogundho e higa mar auchiel, kendo puotheu nochieg cham moromou chamo nyaka bangʼ higni adek.

Then will I send my blessing upon you in the sixth year, and the land shall produce its fruits for three years.

22 E kinde ma uchwoyo e higa mar aboro to unubed mana kapod uchamo cham machon nyaka chop ubed gi keyo e higa mar ochiko.

And ye shall sow in the eighth year, and eat old fruits till the ninth year: until its fruit come, ye shall eat old fruits of the old.

23 Kik ngʼato usne wadgi lowo chuth, nikech lowo en mara, un to un mana joma amiyo lowo kaka wenda kendo jodak.

And the land shall not be sold for a permanence; for the land is mine, because ye are strangers and sojourners before me.

24 E pinyu kamoro amora mudakie, nyaka uyie mondo puodho mane oseusi mondo owar.

And in every land of your possession, ye shall allow ransoms for the land.

25 Ka wadu moro dhier omako ma ouso lope, to nyaka wadgi moro tem matek kendo owarne lopeno.

And if thy brother who is with thee be poor, and should have sold [part] of his possession, and his kinsman who is nigh to him come, then he shall redeem the possession which his brother has sold.

26 To ka ngʼato onge gi watne manyalo warone lowo, to kata en owuon ndalo moyudo pesa onyalo ware,

And if one have no near kinsman, and he prosper with his hand, and he find sufficient money, [even] his ransom;

27 kendo enokwan chakre higni mane ouse lopeno, kendo chulo ngʼatno pesa moromo gi higni ma pod odongʼ nyaka chop higa mar mor, eka koro oyiene kawo lopno obed mare kendo.

then shall he calculate the years of his sale, and he shall give what is due to the man to whom he sold it, and he shall return to his possession.

28 To ka ok onyal waro lopeno, to lopno nosik e lwet ngʼat mane ongʼiewocha nyaka chop higa mar piero abich. To kochopo higa mar morno to nowe lowo odogni wuon mare machon, kendo wuon-gi nokawe.

But if his hand have not prospered sufficiently, so as that he should restore the money to him, then he that bought the possessions shall have them till the sixth year of the release; and it shall go out in the release, and the owner shall return to his possession.

29 Ka ngʼato oyie mi wadgi ongʼiewo ode mar dak manie dala mochiel motegno gi ohinga, to oyiene mana mar ware ka higa achiel pok orumo nyaka ne ngʼiewe. Higano mangima en gi thuolo mar ware.

And if any one should sell an inhabited house in a walled city, then there shall be the ransom of it, until [the time] is fulfilled: its time of ransom shall be a full year.

30 Ka ok oware ka higa pok orumo, to odno mantiere ei ohinga mochiel motegnono mar dala maduongʼ nosik mana kobedo mar ngʼat mane ongʼiewecha, kaachiel gi nyikwaye kod kothe duto nyaka chiengʼ. Kata kochopo higa mar piero abich to ok nodwoke e lwet wuon machon.

And if it be not ransomed until there be completed of its time a full year, the house which is in the walled city shall be surely confirmed to him that bought it, throughout his generations; and it shall not go out in the release.

31 To udi moger e mier ma ok ochiel gi ohinga nokwan mana kaka ikwano lowo. Ginto gin gik minyalo waro, maka ochopo higa mar piero abich to nyaka dwokgi e lwet wegi.

But the houses in the villages which have not a wall round about them, shall be reckoned as the fields of the country: they shall always be redeemable, and they shall go out in the release.

32 Jo-Lawi nigi thuolo kinde duto mar waro utegi manie miechgi.

And the cities of the Levites, the houses of the cities in their possession, shall be always redeemable to the Levites.

33 Ka ja-Lawi moro ok owaro ode manie dalagi, to odni nyaka duogne e higa mar piero abich, nikech udi manie miech joka Lawi e mwandu kende ma gin godo e piny Israel.

And if any one shall redeem a house of the Levites, then shall their sale of the houses of their possession go out in the release; because the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession in the midst of the children of Israel.

34 To puothe mag lek mag joka Lawi ok nyal usi, nikech mano en mwandugi nyaka chiengʼ.

And the lands set apart for their cities shall not be sold, because this is their perpetual possession.

35 Ka ja-Israel wadu moro obedo modhier e dieru, to nyaka ukonye mana kaka ukonyo jadak kata wendo molimou kuma udakie kuom ndalo machwok mondo omi osik kodak kodu.

And if thy brother who is with thee become poor, and he fail in resources with thee, thou shalt help him as a stranger and a sojourner, and thy brother shall live with thee.

36 Kik ukaw ohala moro amora kuome, to daguru kode kuluoro Nyasachu.

Thou shalt not receive from him interest, nor increase: and thou shalt fear thy God: I [am] the Lord: and thy brother shall live with thee.

37 Kik uhole pesa mondo uyudie ohala, kendo kik ukaw ohala kuom chiemo ma uhole.

Thou shalt not lend thy money to him at interest, and thou shalt not lend thy meat to him to be returned with increase.

38 An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu, mane ogolou e piny Misri momiyou piny Kanaan kendo mondo abed Nyasachu.

I [am] the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Chanaan, so as to be your God.

39 Ka wadu odhier kendo ochiwore mondo ingʼiewe, to kik ikete otini ka misumba.

And if thy brother by thee be lowered, and be sold to thee, he shall not serve thee with the servitude of a slave.

40 To dag kode kaka jatich michulo kata kaka wendo modak kodi, kendo obiro tiyoni nyaka chop higa mar piero abich.

He shall be with thee as a hireling or a sojourner, he shall work for thee till the year of release:

41 Eka bangʼe noa iri en kaachiel gi nyithinde, kendo odogi ir joodgi owuon kendo e lop kwerene.

and he shall go out in the release, and his children with him; and he shall go to his family, he shall hasten back to his patrimony.

42 Nikech jo-Israel gin wasumbiniga mane agolo an awuon e piny Misri, ok onego ngʼiewgi kaka wasumbini.

Because these are my servants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt; such an one shall not be sold as a [common] servant.

43 Kik isand ja-Israel wadu kata matin, to iluor Nyasachi.

Thou shalt not oppress him with labour, and shalt fear the Lord thy God.

44 Wasumbini magu machwo kata mamon, unyalo mana ngʼiewo koa ir ogendini mukiewogo.

And whatever number of men-servants and maid-servants thou shalt have, thou shalt purchase male and female servants from the nations that are round about thee.

45 To bende un gi thuolo mar ngʼiewo nyithind jodak manie dieru, kaachiel gi joma ginywolo e dieru, makoro ginibed mwandu magu uwegi,

And of the sons of the sojourners that are among you, of these ye shall buy and of their relations, all that shall be in your lands; let them be to you for a possession.

46 Bangʼ ka usetho to unuwegi ni yawuotu kaka girkeni kendo ginibed wasumbini mag-gi nyaka chiengʼ, makmana ni jo-Israel weteu to kik usandi.

And ye shall distribute them to your children after you, and they shall be to you permanent possessions for ever: but of your brethren the children of Israel, one shall not oppress his brother in labours.

47 Ka jadak moro manie dieru kata wendo oyudo mwandu mi obedo jamoko, to wadu moro to obedo modhier, mi ongʼiewe gi jadak modak e dieru kata anywola jadakno,

And if a stranger or sojourner with thee wax rich, and thy brother in distress be sold to the stranger or the sojourner that is with thee, or to a proselyte by extraction;

48 to en giratiro mondo oware bangʼ ka osengʼiewe. Achiel kuom wedene nyalo ware.

after he is sold to him there shall be redemption for him, one of his brethren shall redeem him.

49 Ngʼatni nyalo bedo owad gi wuon, kata wuod wuon kata mana watne moro amora e anywolane. To en bende kobedo ja-mwandu to onyalo warore owuon.

A brother of his father, or a son of his father's brother shall redeem him; or let one of his near kin of his tribe redeem him, and if he should be rich and redeem himself,

50 En kaachiel gi ngʼat mane ongʼieweno nyaka kwan kar romb higni chakre chiengʼ mane ongʼiewe nyaka chop higa mar piero abich. Pesa monego dwokne ngʼat mane ongʼieweno nyaka bed maromre gi pok ma dine ngʼatno ondikogo jatich kuom higni ma ngʼatno osetiyogo.

then shall he calculate with his purchaser from the year that he sold himself to him until the year of release: and the money of his purchase shall be as that of a hireling, he shall be with him from year to year.

51 To ka higni modongʼ ngʼeny, to noware gi chudo mamalo.

And if any have a greater number of years [than enough], according to these he shall pay his ransom out of his purchase-money.

52 To kodongʼ gi higni manok mondo ochop e higa mar piero abich, to noware gi chudo ma piny.

And if but a little time be left of the years to the year of release, then shall he reckon to him according to his years, and shall pay his ransom

53 Ngʼatni nyaka riti kaka jatich mondiki kendo ngʼat mane ongʼiewe ok oyiene mondo osande.

as a hireling; he shall be with him from year to year; thou shalt not oppress him with labour before thee.

54 Ka ngʼatno ok owar e achiel kuom yorego, to en kaachiel gi nyithinde noweye thuolo e higa mar piero abich,

And if he do not pay his ransom accordingly, he shall go out in the year of his release, he and his children with him.

55 nikech jo-Israel gin wasumbini maga. Gin wasumbini maga mane agolo e piny Misri. An e Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu.

For the children of Israel are my servants: they are my attendants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt.
