Leviticus 25
1 And the Lord said to Moses on Mount Sinai,
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese ʻi he moʻunga ko Sainai, ʻo pehē,
2 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.
Lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, mo ke pehē kiate kinautolu, ʻOka mou ka hoko atu ki he fonua ʻaia ʻoku ou foaki kiate kimoutolu, ʻe toki fai ai ʻe he fonua ʻae Sāpate kia Sihova.
3 For six years put seed into your land, and for six years give care to your vines and get in the produce of them;
Ko e taʻu ʻe ono ke ke tō ai hoʻo ngoue, mo e taʻu ʻe ono ke ke ʻauhani hoʻo ngoue vaine, ʻo tānaki hono fua;
4 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.
Ka ko hono fitu ʻoe taʻu ko e Sāpate ia ke mālōlō ai ʻae fonua, ko e Sāpate ia kia Sihova: ʻoua naʻa ke tō ai hoʻo ngoue, pe ʻauhani hoʻo ngoue vaine.
5 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.
Ko ia ʻoku tupu ʻiate ia pe ʻi he ngaahi fua ʻo hoʻo taʻu ʻoua naʻa ke tuʻusi, pe toli ʻae ngaahi kālepi ʻoe vaine taʻeʻauhani he ko e taʻu mālōlō ia ki ho fonua.
6 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;
Pea ko e Sāpate ʻoe fonua ko e meʻakai ia maʻamoutolu; kiate koe, pea ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki, pea ki hoʻo kaunanga, pea ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki unga ngāue, pea ki he muli ʻoku ʻāunofo kiate koe,
7 And for your cattle and the beasts on the land; all the natural increase of the land will be for food.
Pea ki hoʻo fanga manu lahi, pea ki hoʻo fanga manu ʻi ho fonua kotoa pē, ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku tupu ko e meʻakai ia kiate kinautolu.
8 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;
Pea ke lau kiate koe ʻae Sāpate ʻe fitu ʻoe ngaahi taʻu; ko e taʻu ʻe fitu lau ʻe fitu; pea ko hono lau ʻoe Sāpate ʻe fitu ʻoe ngaahi taʻu ko e taʻu ʻe fāngofulu ma hiva.
9 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.
Pea te ke toki fekau ke ifi ʻae meʻa lea ʻoe siupeli ʻi hono hongofulu ʻoe [ʻaho ]ʻi hono fitu ʻoe māhina, ʻi he ʻaho ʻoe fakalelei ke mou fakaongo atu ʻae meʻa lea ʻi homou fonua kotoa pē.
10 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.
Pea ke mou fakatapui hono nimangofulu ʻoe taʻu, ʻo fakahā ʻae huhuʻi ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ki hono kakai kotoa pē; ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ia ko e siupeli: pea ʻe toe hoko ʻae tangata taki taha kotoa pē ki hono ʻapi, pea ʻe toe haʻu taki taha ʻae tangata ki hono fale.
11 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.
Ko e nimangofulu taʻu ko ia ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ia ko e siupeli: ʻoua naʻa mou tūtuuʻi, pe tuʻusi ʻaia ʻoku tupu ʻiate ia pe, pe tānaki mei he vaine ʻoku taʻeʻauhani.
12 For it is the Jubilee, and it is holy to you; your food will be the natural increase of the field.
He ko e siupeli ia; ʻe māʻoniʻoni ia kiate kimoutolu: te mou kai ʻa hono fua ʻo ia mei he ngoue pe.
13 In this year of Jubilee, let every man go back to his heritage.
Pea ʻi he taʻu ʻoe siupeli ni ʻe toe haʻu ʻae tangata taki taha kotoa pē ki hono tofiʻa,
14 And in the business of trading goods for money, do no wrong to one another.
Pea kapau ʻoku ke fakatau ha meʻa ki ho kaungāʻapi, pe fakatau ha meʻa meiate ia, ʻoua naʻa mou fefakamamahiʻaki ʻakimoutolu:
15 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.
Ke ke fakatau mei ho kaungāʻapi ʻo fakatatau ki hono lau ʻoe taʻu ʻi he hili ʻae siupeli, pea te ne fakatau kiate koe ʻo fakatatau ki hono lau ʻoe taʻu ʻo hono ngaahi fua:
16 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.
Te ke fakalahi ʻa hono totongi ʻo fakatatau mo hono lahi ʻoe taʻu, pea ke fakasiʻisiʻi hono totongi ʻo fakatatau ki hono siʻi ʻoe taʻu: he ʻoku ne fakatau ia kiate koe ʻo fakatatau ki hono lau ʻoe taʻu ʻo hono fua ʻo ia.
17 And do no wrong, one to another, but let the fear of your God be before you; for I am the Lord your God.
Ko ia ʻoua naʻa mou fefakamamahiʻaki ʻakimoutolu; ka ke manavahē ki ho ʻOtua; he ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.
18 So keep my rules and my decisions and do them, and you will be safe in your land.
Ko ia ke mou fai ʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea tauhi ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni, ʻo fai ki ai; pea te mou nofo malu pe ʻi he fonua.
19 And the land will give her fruit, and you will have food in full measure and be safe in the land.
Pea ʻe tupu ʻi he fonua hono fua, pea te mou kai ʻo mākona, ʻo nofo ʻi ai ʻi he fiemālie.
20 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
Pea kapau ʻoku mou pehē, Ko e hā te mau kai ʻi hono fitu ʻoe taʻu? Koeʻuhi ʻe ʻikai te mau tūtuuʻi, pe tānaki ʻemau fua:
21 Then I will send my blessing on you in the sixth year, and the land will give fruit enough for three years.
Teu toki fekau ʻeku tāpuaki kiate kimoutolu ʻi hono ono ʻoe taʻu, pea ʻe tupu ʻi ai ʻae fua ʻo feʻunga mo e taʻu ʻe tolu.
22 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.
Pea te mou tūtuuʻi ʻi hono valu ʻoe taʻu, kae kai ʻae fua motuʻa ʻo aʻu ki hono hiva ʻoe taʻu: te mou kai ʻae meʻakai motuʻa kaeʻoua ke hoko ʻa hono toʻukai.
23 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.
ʻE ʻikai fakatau ʻae fonua ʻo taʻengata: he ʻoku ʻoʻoku ʻae fonua; he ko e kau muli mo e ʻāunofo ʻakimoutolu kiate au.
24 Wherever there is property in land, the owner is to have the right of getting it back.
Pea ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻoku mou maʻu te mou tuku ke huhuʻi ʻae fonua.
25 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.
Kapau kuo fakaʻaʻau ʻo masiva ʻa ho kāinga, pea kuo ne fakatau ha potu ʻo hono ʻapi, pea kapau ʻe haʻu ha niʻihi ʻi hono kāinga ke huhuʻi ia, ke ne huhuʻi ai ʻaia naʻe fakatau ʻe hono kāinga.
26 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;
Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he tangata ha tokotaha ke huhuʻi ia, pea ʻoku faʻa huhuʻi ia ʻe ia pe;
27 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.
Tuku ai ke ne lau ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi taʻu ʻo hono fakatau ʻo ia, pea ʻatu hono toe ʻo ia ki he tangata naʻa ne fakatau ia ki ai; koeʻuhi ke toe haʻu ia ki hono ʻapi.
28 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.
Pea kapau ʻoku ʻikai mafai ʻe ia ke toe ʻomi ia kiate ia, pea ko e meʻa naʻe fakatau ʻe tuku pe ia ʻi he nima ʻo ia naʻa ne fakatau ia ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻoe siupeli: pea ʻi he siupeli ʻe tukuange ia, pea ʻe haʻu ia ki hono ʻapi.
29 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.
Pea kapau ʻoku fakatau ʻe ha tangata ha fale nofoʻanga ʻi loto kolo ʻoku ai hano ʻā maka, ʻe ngofua ʻa ʻene huhuʻi ia ʻi he ʻikai ʻosi ʻae taʻu kotoa hili hono fakatau: ʻi he taʻu kotoa ʻe ngofua ʻa ʻene huhuʻi ia.
30 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.
Pea kapau ʻe ʻikai huhuʻi ia ʻi he taʻu kātoa, pea ko e fale ko ia ʻoku ʻi he kolo ʻā maka ʻe ʻoʻona ia naʻa ne fakatau ia ʻo taʻengata ʻi hono ngaahi toʻutangata; ʻe ʻikai toe tukuange ia ʻi he siupeli.
31 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.
Ka ko e ngaahi fale ʻi he ngaahi potu kakai ʻoku ʻikai hanau ʻā, ʻe lau ia fakataha mo e ngaahi ngoue ʻoe fonua: ʻe ngofua ke huhuʻi ia, pea ʻe tukuange ia ʻi he siupeli.
32 But the houses in the towns of the Levites may be got back by the Levites at any time.
Ka ko e ngaahi potu nofoʻanga ʻoe kau Livai, mo e ngaahi fale ʻi he ngaahi potu nofoʻanga ʻo honau ʻapi, ʻe ngofua ki he kau Livai, ke huhuʻi ia ʻi he kuonga kotoa pē.
33 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.
Pea kapau ʻoku fakatau ʻe ha tangata mei he kau Livai, pea ko e fale naʻe fakatau, mo e potu kakai ʻo hono ʻapi, ʻe tukuange ia ʻi he siupeli: he ko e ngaahi fale ʻoe ngaahi potu kakai ʻoe kau Livai, ko honau ʻapi ia ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.
34 But the land on the outskirts of their towns may not be exchanged for money, for it is their property for ever.
Ka ko e ngoue ʻoku hoko ʻo ofi mo honau ngaahi potu kakai, ʻe ʻikai fakatau ia: he ko honau tofiʻa tuʻumaʻu ia.
35 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.
Pea kapau kuo hoko ʻo masiva ʻa ho kāinga, pea kuo vaivai ia; pea te ke tokoni ia; neongo pe ko e muli ia pe ko ha ʻāunofo kiate koe; koeʻuhi ke ne moʻui ai mo koe.
36 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.
ʻOua naʻa ke toʻo ha totongi ʻiate ia, pe hano tupu; ka ke manavahē ki he ʻOtua; koeʻuhi ke moʻui ho kāinga mo koe.
37 Do not take interest on the money which you let him have or on the food which you give him.
ʻOua naʻa ke ʻatu hoʻo koloa kiate ia ke maʻu ai ʻae totongi, pe nō hoʻo meʻakai ke maʻu ai hono tupu.
38 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.
Ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua, kuo u ʻomi ʻakimoutolu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ke foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻae fonua ko Kēnani, pea ke u hoko ko homou ʻOtua.
39 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;
Pea kapau kuo hoko ʻo masiva ho kāinga ʻoku nofo ofi kiate koe, pea fakatau ʻe ia ia kiate koe: ʻoua naʻa ke fakapōpulaʻi ia ke fai ʻo hangē ha hopoate;
40 But let him be with you as a servant working for payment, till the year of Jubilee;
Ka ʻe ʻiate koe ia ʻo hangē ha tamaioʻeiki ʻoku ngāue ki ha totongi, mo e ʻāunofo, pea te ne ʻiate koe ko e tauhi ʻo aʻu ki he taʻu ʻoe siupeli:
41 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.
Pea ʻe toki ʻalu ia ʻiate koe, ʻaia mo ʻene fānau mo ia, pea ʻe toe hoko atu ia ki hono kāinga, pea ʻe hoko ki he ʻapi ʻo ʻene ngaahi tamai.
42 For they are my servants whom I took out from the land of Egypt; they may not become the property of another.
He ko ʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki ʻakinautolu, ʻaia naʻaku ʻomi mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite: ʻoua naʻa fakatau ʻakinautolu ke fakapōpulaʻi.
43 Do not be a hard master to him, but have the fear of God before you.
ʻE ʻikai te ke puleʻi ʻakinautolu ʻi he mālohi lahi; ka ke manavahē ki ho ʻOtua.
44 But you may get servants as property from among the nations round about; from them you may take men-servants and women-servants.
Ko hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki mo hoʻo kau kaunanga ʻaia te ke maʻu, ʻe maʻu ia mei he kakai taʻelotu ʻoku nofo takatakai ʻiate koe; ke mou fakatau ʻiate kinautolu ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki mo e kau kaunanga.
45 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.
Pea koeʻuhi ko e fānau ʻae kau muli ʻoku ʻāunofo ʻiate kimoutolu, te mou fakatau ʻiate kinautolu, pea ʻi honau ngaahi faʻahinga ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu, ʻaia naʻa nau fakatupu ʻi homou fonua: pea ko homou kakai ʻakinautolu.
46 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.
Pea ke mou maʻu ʻakinautolu ko e kakai ki hoʻomou fānau ʻoku muimui ʻiate kimoutolu, kenau maʻu ʻakinautolu ko honau kakai; ko hoʻomou kau tamaioʻeiki ʻo taʻengata; ka ʻe ʻikai te mou pule mālohi ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ko homou kāinga, ko e taha ki he taha.
47 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;
Pea kapau ʻe fakaʻaʻau ʻo koloaʻia ha ʻāunofo, pe ha muli ʻoku nofo ofi kiate koe, pea fakaʻaʻau ʻo masiva ho kāinga ʻoku nofo ofi kiate ia, ʻo ne fakatau ia ki he muli pe ko e ʻāunofo ʻoku nofo ʻāunofo ofi kiate ia, pe ki ha tokotaha ʻi he hako ʻoe muli:
48 After he has given himself he has the right to be made free, for a price, by one of his brothers,
Hili hono fakatau ia ʻoku ngofua ke huhuʻi ia: ʻoku ngofua ke huhuʻi ia ʻe ha tokotaha ʻi hono kāinga.
49 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.
ʻE ngofua ke huhuʻi ia ʻe he tokoua ʻo ʻene tamai, pe ko e foha ʻoʻona, pe huhuʻi ia ʻe ha tokotaha ʻoku kāinga ofi kiate ia ʻi hono kāinga; pea kapau ʻoku ne mafai, ke huhuʻi ia ʻe ia pe.
50 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.
Pea te ne lau kiate ia naʻa ne fakatau ia ʻo fai mei he taʻu naʻe fakatau ai ia kiate ia ʻo hoko ki he taʻu ʻoe siupeli: pea ko e totongi ʻoe fakatau ʻe fakatatau ki hono lau ʻoe taʻu, ʻe fakatatau ia kiate ia mo e ngāue ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻoku totongi.
51 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.
Kapau ʻoku toe lahi ʻae taʻu kimui, ʻe toe ʻatu ʻe ia ʻo fakatatau ki ai ʻae koloa ʻo hono huhuʻi mei he koloa naʻe fakatauʻaki ia.
52 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.
Pea kapau ʻoku toe siʻi pe ʻae taʻu ki he siupeli, pea ʻe lau ia ki ai mo ia, pea ʻe toe ʻatu kiate ia ʻo fakatatau ki hono taʻu ʻae totongi ʻo hono huhuʻi.
53 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.
Pea ʻe ʻiate ia ia ʻo hangē ha tamaioʻeiki ngāue ʻoku totongi ʻi he taʻu taki taha; pea ʻe ʻikai puleʻi mālohi ia kiate ia ʻi ho ʻao.
54 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.
Pea kapau ʻe ʻikai huhuʻi ia ʻi he ngaahi taʻu ko ia, pea ʻe toki tukuange ia ʻi he taʻu ʻoe siupeli, ʻa ia, mo ʻene fānau mo ia.
55 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.
He ko e kau tamaioʻeiki kiate au ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli; ko ʻeku kau tamaioʻeiki ʻakinautolu, ʻaia kuo u ʻomi mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite: Ko au ko Sihova ko homou ʻOtua.
