Deuteronomy 15
1 At the end of every seven years, you shall cancel debts.
I KA pau ana o na makahiki pahiku e kala aku oe i na mea.
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 Yahweh’s release has been proclaimed.
Penei ke ano o ke kala ana'ku: o ka mea nona ka aie, nana e haawi aie i kona hoalauna, oia ke kala aku; mai kii hou aku oia ia mea i kona hoalauna, aole hoi i kona hoahanau; no ka mea, ua oleloia mai, o ko ke Akua kala ana ia.
3 Of a foreigner you may require it; but whatever of yours is with your brother, your hand shall release.
He pono e kii hou aku oe i ke kanaka e, aka, o kau mea me kou hoahanau, na kou lima ia e kala aku;
4 However there will be no poor with you (for Yahweh will surely bless you in the land which Yahweh your God gives you for an inheritance to possess)
I mea e ilihune ole ai kekahi mea o oukou; no ka mea, na Iehova oe e hoopomaikai nui mai ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua e haawi mai ai ia oe i wahi e noho ai nou:
5 if only you diligently listen to Yahweh your God’s voice, to observe to do all this commandment which I command you today.
I kou manawa wale no e hoolohe pono ai i ka leo o Iehova kou Akua, i ka malama pono i neia mau kauoha a pau a'u e kauoha aku nei ia oe i keia la.
6 For Yahweh 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.
No ka mea, ke hoopomaikai nei o Iehova kou Akua ia oe, e like me kana olelo ana mai ia oe: e haawi lilo ole aku oe i na lahuikanaka he nui, aole oe e noi wale aku; e noho alii oe maluna o na lahuikanaka he nui, aole hoi lakou e noho alii maluna on.
7 If a poor man, one of your brothers, is with you within any of your gates in your land which Yahweh your God gives you, you shall not harden your heart, nor shut your hand from your poor brother;
Ina iwaena o oukou kekahi hoahanau ilihune ou maloko o kekahi o kou mau ipuka ma ka aina a Iehova kou Akua e haawi mai ai ia oe, mai hoopaakiki oe i kou naau, aole hoi e aua kou lima no kou hoahanau ilihune:
8 but you shall surely open your hand to him, and shall surely lend him sufficient for his need, which he lacks.
Aka, e wehe loa oe i kou lima ia ia, a e haawi io aku ia ia i ka mea e pono ai kona nele, ana i hemahema ai.
9 Beware that there not be a wicked 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 Yahweh against you, and it be sin to you.
E ao, o kupu mai ka manao iloko o kou naau ino, e i iho ana, Ua kokoke mai nei ka hiku o ka makahiki, ka makahiki e hookala aku ai; a nana ino aku kou maka i kou hoahanau ilihune, a haawi ole aku oe nana; a e kahea aku oia ia Iehova nou, a e lilo ia i hewa nou.
10 You shall surely give, and your heart shall not be grieved when you give to him, because it is for this thing Yahweh your God will bless you in all your work and in all that you put your hand to.
E oiaio no, e haawi aku oe nana, aole e minamina kou naau i kou haawi ana'ku nana: no ka mea, oia ka mea e hoopomaikai mai ai o Iehova kou Akua ia oe ma kau hana ana a pau, a ma na mea a pau a kou lima e lawe ai.
11 For the poor will never cease out of the land. Therefore I command you to surely open your hand to your brother, to your needy, and to your poor, in your land.
No ka mea, aole e pau ka poe ilihune ma ka honua; nolaila, ke kauoha aku nei au ia oe, i ka i ana'ku, E wehe loa oe i kou lima i kou hoahanau, i kou poe ilihune, a me kou poe nele ma kou aina.
12 If your brother, a Hebrew 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.
Ina paha e kuaiia mai nou kou hoahanau, he kanaka Hebera. he wahine Hebera paha, a e hookauwa mai oia nau i na makahiki eono; a o ka hiku o ka makahiki e hookuu aku oe ia ia mai ou aku la.
13 When you let him go free from you, you shall not let him go empty.
A i hookuu aku oe ia ia mai ou aku la, mai hookuu wale aku oe ia ia.
14 You shall furnish him liberally out of your flock, out of your threshing floor, and out of your wine press. As Yahweh your God has blessed you, you shall give to him.
E hoolako oe ia ia i kekahi o kau poe hipa, a me kau palaoa, a me kau waina: i ka mea a Iehova kou Akua, i hoopomaikai ai ia oe, e haawi aku ia ia.
15 You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and Yahweh your God redeemed you. Therefore I command you this thing today.
A e hoomanao hoi oe, he kauwa no oe ma ka aina o Aigupita, a na Iehova na kou Akua oe i hoopakele: nolaila e kauoha aku nei au ia oe ia mea i keia la.
16 It shall be, if he tells you, “I will not go out from you,” because he loves you and your house, because he is well with you,
Ina paha e olelo oia ia oe, Aole au makemake e hele mai ou aku la, no kona aloha ia oe a me kou ohua, a no kona pomaikai ia oe;
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.
Alaila e lalau oe i ke kui, a hou aku i kona pepeiao a ma ka puka, a e lilo ia i kauwa mau nau: a pela oe e hana aku ai i kau kauwawahine.
18 It shall not seem hard to you when you let him go free from you, for he has been double the value of a hired hand as he served you six years. Yahweh your God will bless you in all that you do.
Mai minamina oe i kou hookuu aku ia ia mai ou aku la; no ka mea, ua oi aku kona pono ia oe, i ko na kauwa hoolimalima elua, i kona malama ana ia oe i na makahiki eono: a e hoopomaikai o Iehova kou Akua ia oe i na mea a pau au e hana'i.
19 You shall dedicate all the firstborn males that are born of your herd and of your flock to Yahweh your God. You shall do no work with the firstborn of your herd, nor shear the firstborn of your flock.
O na hanau mua a pau o kau poe bipi, a me kau poe hipa e hoolaa oe no Iehova kou Akua; mai hoohana oe i ka hanau mua o kau bipi, aole hoi e ako i ka hulu o kau hipa hanau mua.
20 You shall eat it before Yahweh your God year by year in the place which Yahweh shall choose, you and your household.
Imua o Iehova kou Akua e ai ai oe ia mea ma kahi a Iehova e wae ai, o oe a me kou ohua.
21 If it has any defect—is lame or blind, or has any defect whatever, you shall not sacrifice it to Yahweh your God.
Ina paha he wahi kina o ia mea, he oopa paha, he makapo paha, a he wahi mea kina iki, mai kaumaha aku oe ia mea ia Iehova kou Akua.
22 You shall eat it within your gates. The unclean and the clean shall eat it alike, as the gazelle and as the deer.
E ai oe ia mea iloko o kou mau ipuka: o ke kanaka haumia, a me ke kanaka maemae e ai no, e like me ke gazela, a me ka dea hihiu.
23 Only you shall not eat its blood. You shall pour it out on the ground like water.
Aole nae oe e ai i ke koko o ia mea; e ninini oe ia mea ma ka honua e like me ka wai.
