Leviticus 25
1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses in Mount Sinai, saying—
耶和华在西奈山对摩西说：
2 Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou shalt say unto them: —When ye enter into the land which, I, am giving you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto Yahweh.
“你晓谕以色列人说：你们到了我所赐你们那地的时候，地就要向耶和华守安息。
3 Six years, shalt thou sow thy field, and, six years, shalt thou prune thy vineyard, —and gather the increase thereof;
六年要耕种田地，也要修理葡萄园，收藏地的出产。
4 but, in the seventh year—a sabbath of sacred rest, shall there be unto the land, a sabbath unto Yahweh: thy field, shalt thou not sow, and, thy vineyard, shalt thou not prune;
第七年，地要守圣安息，就是向耶和华守的安息，不可耕种田地，也不可修理葡萄园。
5 that which groweth of itself of thy harvest, shalt thou not reap; and the grapes of thine unpruned vines, shalt thou not cut off: a year of sacred rest, shall there be to the land.
遗落自长的庄稼不可收割；没有修理的葡萄树也不可摘取葡萄。这年，地要守圣安息。
6 So shall the sabbath of the land be unto you for food: unto thee, and unto thy servant and unto thy handmaid, —and unto thy hireling, and unto thy settlers that are sojourning with thee;
地在安息年所出的，要给你和你的仆人、婢女、雇工人，并寄居的外人当食物。
7 and unto thy tame-beasts, and unto the wild-beasts that are in thy land, shall belong all the increase thereof for food.
这年的土产也要给你的牲畜和你地上的走兽当食物。”
8 And thou shalt count to thee seven weeks of years, seven years, seven times, —so shall the days of the seven weeks of years become to thee forty-nine years.
“你要计算七个安息年，就是七七年。这便为你成了七个安息年，共是四十九年。
9 Then shalt thou cause a signal-horn to pass through in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month: on the Day of Propitiation, shall ye cause a horn to pass throughout all your land.
当年七月初十日，你要大发角声；这日就是赎罪日，要在遍地发出角声。
10 So shall ye hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim freedom throughout the land to all the dwellers thereof, —a jubilee, shall it be unto you, and ye shall return, every man unto his possession, and every man unto his family, shall ye return.
第五十年，你们要当作圣年，在遍地给一切的居民宣告自由。这年必为你们的禧年，各人要归自己的产业，各归本家。
11 A jubilee, shall that fiftieth year be unto you, —ye shall not sow, neither shall ye reap the self-grown corn thereof, nor cut off the grapes of the unpruned vines thereof.
第五十年要作为你们的禧年。这年不可耕种；地中自长的，不可收割；没有修理的葡萄树也不可摘取葡萄。
12 For, a jubilee, it is, holy, shall it be unto you, —out of the field, shall ye eat her increase.
因为这是禧年，你们要当作圣年，吃地中自出的土产。
13 In this same jubilee year, shall ye return every man unto his possession.
“这禧年，你们各人要归自己的地业。
14 And when ye sell anything to thy neighbour, or buy aught at thy neighbour’s hand, do not overreach one another.
你若卖什么给邻舍，或是从邻舍的手中买什么，彼此不可亏负。
15 By the number of years after the jubilee, shalt thou buy of thy neighbour, —by the number of the years of increase, shall he sell unto thee;
你要按禧年以后的年数向邻舍买；他也要按年数的收成卖给你。
16 according to the multitude of the years, shalt thou increase the price thereof, and, according to the fewness of the years, shalt thou diminish the price thereof, —because the sum of the increase, it is that he selleth thee.
年岁若多，要照数加添价值；年岁若少，要照数减去价值，因为他照收成的数目卖给你。
17 So then ye shall not overreach one another; but thou shalt stand in awe of thy God, —for, I—Yahweh, am your God.
你们彼此不可亏负，只要敬畏你们的 神，因为我是耶和华—你们的 神。”
18 Wherefore ye shall do my statutes, and my regulations, shall ye observe and do them, —so shall ye dwell upon the land with confidence;
“我的律例，你们要遵行，我的典章，你们要谨守，就可以在那地上安然居住。
19 and the land shall yield her fruit; and ye shall eat to the full, —and shall dwell with confidence thereupon.
地必出土产，你们就要吃饱，在那地上安然居住。
20 And since ye may say, What shall we eat in the seventh year? Lo! we are not to sow, neither are we to gather our increase!
你们若说：‘这第七年我们不耕种，也不收藏土产，吃什么呢？’
21 Therefore will I command my blessing upon you, in the sixth year, —and it shall make the increase of three years;
我必在第六年将我所命的福赐给你们，地便生三年的土产。
22 and ye shall sow, the eighth year, and eat of old store, —until the ninth year until the coming in of the increase thereof, shall ye eat old store.
第八年，你们要耕种，也要吃陈粮，等到第九年出产收来的时候，你们还吃陈粮。”
23 The land moreover shall not be sold beyond recovery, for, mine, is the land, —for, sojourners and settlers, ye are with me.
“地不可永卖，因为地是我的；你们在我面前是客旅，是寄居的。
24 And, in all the land of your possession, a right of redemption, shall ye give to the land.
在你们所得为业的全地，也要准人将地赎回。
25 When thy brother waxeth poor, and so selleth aught of his possession, then may his kinsman that is near unto him come in, and redeem that which was sold by his brother.
你的弟兄若渐渐穷乏，卖了几分地业，他至近的亲属就要来把弟兄所卖的赎回。
26 And, when, any man, hath no kinsman, —but his own hand getteth enough, so that he findeth what is needed to redeem it,
若没有能给他赎回的，他自己渐渐富足，能够赎回，
27 then shall he reckon the years since he sold it, and restore the overplus to the man to whom he sold it, —and shall return to his possession.
就要算出卖地的年数，把余剩年数的价值还那买主，自己便归回自己的地业。
28 But, if his hand have not found enough to get it back unto him, then shall that which he sold remain in the hand of him that bought it, until the year of the jubilee, —and shall go out in the jubilee, and he shall return unto his possession.
倘若不能为自己得回所卖的，仍要存在买主的手里直到禧年；到了禧年，地业要出买主的手，自己便归回自己的地业。
29 And, when, any man, selleth a dwelling-house in a walled city, then shall his right of redemption remain until the completion of a year after he sold it, —for, [a year of] days, shall his right of redemption remain.
“人若卖城内的住宅，卖了以后，一年之内可以赎回；在一整年，必有赎回的权柄。
30 But, if it be not redeemed before the end of a full year, then shall the house that is in the city that hath walls be confirmed, beyond recovery, to him who bought it, unto his generations, —it shall not go out in the jubilee.
若在一整年之内不赎回，这城内的房屋就定准永归买主，世世代代为业；在禧年也不得出买主的手。
31 But as for the houses of villages which have no wall round about them, with the fields of land, shall it be reckoned, —a right of redemption, shall belong to it, and, in the jubilee, shall it go out.
但房屋在无城墙的村庄里，要看如乡下的田地一样，可以赎回；到了禧年，都要出买主的手。
32 And as for the cities of the Levites, the houses of the cities of their possession, an age-abiding right of redemption, shall pertain unto the Levites.
然而利未人所得为业的城邑，其中的房屋，利未人可以随时赎回。
33 And, if one of the Levites should not redeem, then shall the sale of the house and the city of his possession go out in the jubilee; for, the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession, in the midst of the sons of Israel.
若是一个利未人不将所卖的房屋赎回，是在所得为业的城内，到了禧年就要出买主的手，因为利未人城邑的房屋是他们在以色列人中的产业。
34 But the field of the pasture-land of their cities, shall not be sold, —for an age-abiding possession, it is unto them.
只是他们各城郊野之地不可卖，因为是他们永远的产业。”
35 And, when thy brother waxeth poor, and his hand becometh feeble with thee, then shalt thou strengthen him, as a sojourner and a settler, so shall he live with thee.
“你的弟兄在你那里若渐渐贫穷，手中缺乏，你就要帮补他，使他与你同住，像外人和寄居的一样。
36 Do not accept from him interest or profit, but stand thou in awe of thy God, —so shall thy brother live with thee.
不可向他取利，也不可向他多要；只要敬畏你的 神，使你的弟兄与你同住。
37 Thy silver, shalt thou not give him on interest, —neither, for profit, shalt thou give him thy food.
你借钱给他，不可向他取利；借粮给他，也不可向他多要。
38 I—Yahweh, am your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, —to give unto you the land of Canaan, to become your God,
我是耶和华—你们的 神，曾领你们从埃及地出来，为要把迦南地赐给你们，要作你们的 神。”
39 And when thy brother waxeth poor with thee, and so selleth himself unto thee, thou shalt not bind him with the bondage of a bondman:
“你的弟兄若在你那里渐渐穷乏，将自己卖给你，不可叫他像奴仆服事你。
40 as a hired servant, as a settler, shall he remain with thee, —until the year of the jubilee, shall he serve with thee:
他要在你那里像雇工人和寄居的一样，要服事你直到禧年。
41 then shall he go forth from thee, he and his sons with him, —and shall return unto his family, and unto the possession of his fathers, shall he return.
到了禧年，他和他儿女要离开你，一同出去归回本家，到他祖宗的地业那里去。
42 For, my bondmen, they are, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt, —they shall not sell themselves with the sale of a bondman.
因为他们是我的仆人，是我从埃及地领出来的，不可卖为奴仆。
43 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour, —so shalt thou stand in awe of thy God.
不可严严地辖管他，只要敬畏你的 神。
44 And as for thy bondman and thy bond-maid which thou shalt have, of the nations that are round about you—from them, may ye buy bondman and bond-maid.
至于你的奴仆、婢女，可以从你四围的国中买。
45 Moreover also, of the sons of the settlers who are sojourning with you—of them, may ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they have begotten in your land, —so shall they become yours, as a possession;
并且那寄居在你们中间的外人和他们的家属，在你们地上所生的，你们也可以从其中买人；他们要作你们的产业。
46 and ye may take them as an inheritance for your sons after you to inherit as a possession, unto times age-abiding, of them, may ye take to be bondmen, —but, over your brethren the sons of Israel—a man over his brother, ye shall not rule, over him with rigour.
你们要将他们遗留给你们的子孙为产业，要永远从他们中间拣出奴仆；只是你们的弟兄以色列人，你们不可严严地辖管。
47 And, when the hand of the sojourner and settler with thee getteth possessions, and thy brother with him, waxeth poor, —and so he selleth himself to the sojourner [who is] a settler with thee, or to one who hath taken root, of the family of the sojourner,
“住在你那里的外人，或是寄居的，若渐渐富足，你的弟兄却渐渐穷乏，将自己卖给那外人，或是寄居的，或是外人的宗族，
48 after that he hath sold himself, a right of redemption, pertaineth to him, —one of his brethren, may redeem him;
卖了以后，可以将他赎回。无论是他的弟兄，
49 or, his uncle or his uncle’s son, may redeem him, or, a near flesh-relation of his, of his family, may redeem him, or, his own hand may have gotten enough, and, so he may redeem himself.
或伯叔、伯叔的儿子，本家的近支，都可以赎他。他自己若渐渐富足，也可以自赎。
50 Then shall he reckon with him that bought him, from the year that he was sold to him, unto the year of the jubilee, —and the silver for which he was sold shall be by the number of years, according to the days of a hired servant, shall he be with him.
他要和买主计算，从卖自己的那年起，算到禧年；所卖的价值照着年数多少，好像工人每年的工价。
51 If there is yet a multitude of years, according to them, shall he return, as his redemption price, of the silver of him that bought him.
若缺少的年数多，就要按着年数从买价中偿还他的赎价。
52 Or, if [there is] but a small remainder of years, until the year of the jubilee, then shall he reckon to himself, according to the years thereof, shall he return his price of redemption.
若到禧年只缺少几年，就要按着年数和买主计算，偿还他的赎价。
53 As a servant hired year by year, shall he be with him, he shall not rule over him with rigour, before thine eyes.
他和买主同住，要像每年雇的工人，买主不可严严地辖管他。
54 But if he be not redeemed in any of these ways, then shall he go out in the jubilee year, he, and his sons with him.
他若不这样被赎，到了禧年，要和他的儿女一同出去。
55 For, unto me, are the sons of Israel, bondmen, my bondmen, they are, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt. I, Yahweh, am your God.
因为以色列人都是我的仆人，是我从埃及地领出来的。我是耶和华—你们的 神。”
