1 T he Lord said to Moses on Mount Sinai,

وَقالَ اللهُ لِمُوسَى عَلَى جَبَلِ سِيناءَ:

2 S ay to the Israelites, When you come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath to the Lord.

«قُلْ لِبَنِي إسْرائِيلَ: حِينَ تَدخُلُونَ الأرْضَ الَّتِي سَأُعطِيها لَكُمْ، أرِيحُوا الأرْضَ منَ الزِّراعَةِ فِي كُلِّ سابِعِ سَنَةٍ لإكرامِ اللهِ.

3 F or six years you shall sow your field, and for six years you shall prune your vineyard and gather in its fruits.

لِسِتِّ سَنَواتٍ يُمكِنُكَ أنْ تَزرَعَ حَقلَكَ وَتُقَلِّمَ كَرمَكَ وَتَجمَعَ الغِلالَ.

4 B ut in the seventh year there shall be a sabbath of solemn rest for the land, a sabbath to the Lord; you shall neither sow your field nor prune your vineyard.

أمّا السَّنَةُ السّابِعَةُ فَتَكُونُ راحَةً تامَّةً لِلأرْضِ، سَبتاً لإكرامِ اللهِ. لا تَزرَعْ فِيها حَقلَكَ وَلا تُقَلِّمْ كَرْمَكَ.

5 W hat grows of itself in your harvest you shall not reap and the grapes on your uncultivated vine you shall not gather, for it is a year of rest to the land.

وَلا تَحصُدِ المَحاصِيلَ الَّتِي تَنمُو مِنْ ذاتِها، وَلا تَجمَعْ عِنَبَ الكُرُومِ غَيرِ المُقَلَّمَةِ. إنَّها سَنَةُ راحَةٍ تامَّةٍ لِلأرْضِ.

6 A nd the sabbath rest of the land shall furnish food for you, for your male and female slaves, your hired servant, and the temporary resident who lives with you,

«أمَّا ما تُخرِجُهُ الأرْضُ مِنْ ذاتِها فِي سَنَةِ راحَتِها سَيَكُونُ لَكُمْ طَعاماً لَكَ وَلِعَبدِكَ وَلِأمَتِكَ وَلِأجِيرِكَ وَلِلغَرِيبِ السّاكِنِ مَعَكُمْ،

7 F or your domestic animals also and for the beasts in your land; all its yield shall be for food.

وَلِماشِيَتِكَ وَلِلحَيواناتِ البَرِّيَّةِ الَّتِي فِي أرْضِكَ. كُلُّ ما تُنتِجُهُ الأرْضُ سَيَكُونُ لَكُمْ طَعاماً. سَنَةُ تَحرِيرِ العَبِيدِ: اليُوبِيل

8 A nd you shall number seven sabbaths or weeks of years for you, seven times seven years, so the total time of the seven weeks of years shall be forty-nine years.

«احسِبْ سَبعَ سِنِينَ سَبعَ مَرّاتٍ، فَيَكُونُ مَجمُوعُها تِسعاً وَأربَعِينَ سَنَةً.

9 T hen you shall sound abroad the loud trumpet on the tenth day of the seventh month; on the Day of Atonement blow the trumpet in all your land.

ثُمَّ تَنفُخُونَ بِالبُوقِ فِي اليَومِ العاشِرِ مِنَ الشَّهرِ السّابِعِ، أي فِي يَومِ الكَفّارَةِ، فِي كُلِّ الأرْضِ.

10 A nd you shall hallow the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty throughout all the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you; and each of you shall return to his ancestral possession, and each of you shall return to his family.

تَعْتَبِرُونَ السَّنَةَ الخَمسِينَ مُقَدَّسَةً وَمُمَيَّزَةً. فَتُعلِنُونَ فِيها العِتْقَ لِكُلِّ مَنْ يَعِيشُ فِي الأرْضِ. ادعُو هَذِهِ السَّنَةَ سَنَةَ اليُوبِيلِ. كُلُّ واحِدٍ فِيكُمْ سَيَعُودُ إلَى مُلكِهِ وَعَشِيرَتِهِ.

11 T hat fiftieth year shall be a jubilee for you; in it you shall not sow, or reap and store what grows of itself, or gather the grapes of the uncultivated vines.

سَتَكُونُ السَّنَةُ الخَمسُونَ يُوبِيلاً لَكُمْ. لا تَزرَعُوا فِيها وَلا تَحصُدُوا ما يَنبُتُ وَحْدَهُ، وَلا تَقطِفُوا العِنَبَ مِنَ الكُرُومِ غَيرِ المُقَلَّمَةِ.

12 F or it is a jubilee; it shall be holy to you; you shall eat the increase of it out of the field.

لِأنَّ هَذِهِ سَنَةُ اليُوبِيلِ، وَهِيَ مُقَدَّسَةً لَكُمْ. يُمكِنُكُمْ أنْ تَأكُلُوا ما يَتَساقَطُ مِنَ الثَّمَرِ وَحدَهُ.

13 I n this Year of Jubilee each of you shall return to his ancestral property.

فِي سَنَةِ اليُوبِيلِ سَيَعُودُ كُلُّ واحِدٍ مِنكُمْ إلَى مُلكِهِ.

14 A nd if you sell anything to your neighbor or buy from your neighbor, you shall not wrong one another.

«حِينَ تَبِيعُ مُلْكَكَ لِجارِكَ، أوْ حِينَ تَشتَرِي مِنْ جارِكَ، لا يَغِشَّ بَعضُكُمْ بَعضاً.

15 A ccording to the number of years after the Jubilee, you shall buy from your neighbor. And he shall sell to you according to the number of years the crops.

اشْتَرِ مِنْ جارِكَ بِحَسَبِ عَدَدِ السِّنِينِ مِنْ سَنَةِ اليُوبِيلِ السّابِقَةِ. يَنبَغِي أنْ يَبِيعَكَ بِحَسَبِ عَدَدِ سِنِيِّ المَحاصِيلِ الباقِيَةِ حَتَّى اليُوبِيلِ التّالِي.

16 I f the years are many, you may increase the price, and if the years remaining are few, you shall diminish the price, for the number of the crops is what he is selling to you.

كُلَّما كانَتِ السَّنَواتُ الباقِيَةُ أكثَرَ يَرتَفِعُ سِعرُ الأرْضِ، وَكُلَّما قَلَّ عَدَدُ السَّنَواتِ يَنخَفِضُ سِعرُ الأرْضِ، لِأنَّهُ يَبِيعُ عَدَدَ المَحاصِيلِ لَكَ.

17 Y ou shall not oppress and wrong one another, but you shall fear your God. For I am the Lord your God.

لا يَغِشَّ بَعضُكُمْ بَعضاً، بَلِ اخشُوا اللهَ، لِأنِّي أنا إلَهُكُمْ.

18 T herefore you shall do and give effect to My statutes and keep My ordinances and perform them, and you will dwell in the land in safety.

«أطِيعُوا شَرائِعِي، وَاحْفَظُوا أحكامِي وَاعْمَلُوا بِها كَي تَعِيشُوا فِي الأرْضِ بِأمانٍ.

19 T he land shall yield its fruit; you shall eat your fill and dwell there in safety.

فَتُعْطِي الأرْضُ غَلَّتَها، وَيَكُونُ لَدَيكُمْ طَعامٌ كَثِيرٌ، وَتَسكُنُونَ فِي أمانٍ.

20 A nd if you say, What shall we eat in the seventh year if we are not to sow or gather in our increase?

«وَإنْ قُلْتُمْ: ‹ماذا سَنَأكُلُ فِي السَّنَةِ السّابِعَةِ إنْ لَمْ نَزرَعْ وَلَمْ نَجمَعْ غَلّاتِ الأرْضِ؟›

21 T hen I will command My blessings on you in the sixth year, so that it shall bring forth fruit for three years.

فَإنِّي سَآمُرُ بِأنْ تَأتِيَ بَرَكَتِي عَلَيكُمْ فِي السَّنَةِ السّادِسَةِ، فَتُنتِجُ الأرْضُ غَلّاتٍ تَكفِي لِثَلاثِ سِنِينَ.

22 A nd you shall sow in the eighth year, but eat of the old store of produce; until the crops of the ninth year come in you shall eat of the old supply.

فَتَأكُلُونَ مِنْ هَذِهِ الغَلّاتِ بَينَما تَزرَعُونَ فِي السَّنَةِ الثّامِنَةِ. فَتأكُلُونَ مِنَ الغَلَّةِ القَدِيمَةِ حَتَّى حَصادِ السَّنَةِ التّاسِعَةِ. شَرائِعُ خاصَّةٌ بِالمُلكِيَّة

23 T he land shall not be sold into perpetual ownership, for the land is Mine; you are strangers and temporary residents with Me.

«يُمْنَعُ أنْ تُباعَ الأرْضُ بِشَكلٍ دائِمٍ، لِأنَّ الأرْضَ لِي، وَأنتُمْ غُرَباءُ وَوُكَلاءُ يَسكُنُونَ أرْضِي.

24 A nd in all the country you possess you shall grant a redemption for the land.

فِي كُلِّ أرْضِكُمُ الَّتِي تَمتَلِكُونَها، تَسمَحُونَ لِمالِكِ الأرْضِ الأصلِيِّ أنْ يَرُدَّها بِدَفعِ ثَمَنِها.

25 I f your brother has become poor and has sold some of his property, if any of his kin comes to redeem it, he shall redeem what his brother has sold.

إذا افتَقَرَ قَرِيبُكَ وَباعَ جُزءاً مِنْ أرْضِهِ، فَعَلَى قَرِيبِهِ أنْ يَأتِيَ وَيَستَرِدَّ الأرْضَ الَّتِي باعَها قَرِيبُهُ.

26 A nd if the man has no one to redeem his property, and he himself has become more prosperous and has enough to redeem it,

فَإنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ قَرِيبٌ لِيَشتَرِيَها، لَكِنَّهُ استَطاعَ الحُصُولَ عَلَى ما يَكفِي مِنَ المالِ لِاستِعادَةِ أرْضِهِ،

27 T hen let him count the years since he sold it and restore the overpayment to the man to whom he sold it, and return to his ancestral possession.

فَحِينَئِذٍ، يَحسِبُ السَّنَواتِ مُنذُ باعَها، وَيَدفَعُ لِلمُشتَرِي مُقابِلَ ما تَبَقَّى مِنَ السَّنَواتِ، وَيَعُودُ إلَى أرْضِهِ.

28 B ut if he is unable to redeem it, it shall remain in the buyer’s possession until the Year of Jubilee, when it shall be set free and he may return to it.

لَكِنْ إنْ لَمْ يَكَنْ قادِراً عَلَى شِرائِها ثانِيَةً، فَإنَّها تَبقَى مُلكاً لِلَّذِي اشتَراها إلَى سَنَةِ اليُوبِيلِ. وَفِي سَنَةِ اليُوبِيلِ، تُعتَقُ الأرْضُ، وَتَعُودُ إلَى صاحِبِها الأصلِيِّ.

29 I f a man sells a dwelling house in a fortified city, he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; for a full year he may have the right of redemption.

«إنْ باعَ رَجُلٌ بَيتاً فِي مَدِينَةٍ مُحاطَةٍ بِأسوارٍ، فَيُمكِنُ أنْ يَشتَرِيَهُ ثانِيَةً خِلالَ سَنَةٍ مِنْ بَيعِهِ. فَحَقُّهُ بِاسْتِعادَتِهِ مَحصُورٌ فِي سَنَةٍ واحِدَةٍ.

30 A nd if it is not redeemed within a full year, then the house that is in the fortified city shall be made sure, permanently and without limitations, for him who bought it, throughout his generations. It shall not go free in the Year of Jubilee.

فَإنْ لَمْ يَشتَرِ البَيتَ قَبلَ اكتِمالِ السَّنَةِ، فَإنَّ البَيتَ فِي المَدِينَةِ المُحاطَةِ بِأسوارٍ يَصِيرُ مُلكاً دائِماً لِلَّذِي اشتَراهُ وَلِنَسلِهِ مِنْ بَعدِهِ، وَلَنْ يَتِمَّ تَحْرِيرُهُ فِي سَنَةِ اليُوبِيلِ.

31 B ut the houses of the unwalled villages shall be counted with the fields of the country. They may be redeemed, and they shall go free in the Year of Jubilee.

أمّا البُيُوتُ الَّتِيُ فِي القُرَى الَّتِي بِلا أسوارٍ فَإنَّها تُعامَلُ كَمُعامَلَةِ الأرْضِ، إذْ يُمكِنُ لِصاحِبِها أنْ يَشتَرِيَها ثانِيَةً، وَيَتِمُّ تَحْرِيرُها فِي سَنَةِ اليُوبِيلِ.

32 N evertheless, the cities of the Levites, the houses in the cities of their possession, the Levites may redeem at any time.

«أمّا بُيُوتُ اللّاوِيِّينَ الَّتِي فِي مُدُنِ اللّاوِيِّينَ المُحاطَةِ بِأسْوارٍ فَيُمكِنُ شِراؤُها ثانِيَةً فِي أيِّ وَقتٍ.

33 B ut if a house is not redeemed by a Levite, the sold house in the city they possess shall go free in the Year of Jubilee, for the houses in the Levite cities are their ancestral possession among the Israelites.

وَإنْ لَمْ يَشْتَرِ اللّاوِي بَيتَهُ ثانِيَةً، فَإنَّ ذَلِكَ البَيتَ يَعُودُ إلَى مالِكِهِ فِي سَنَةِ اليُوبِيلِ، لِأنَّ بُيُوتَ الَّلاوِيِّينَ فِي المُدُنِ مُلكٌ دائِمٌ لَهُمْ وَسَطَ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ.

34 B ut the field of unenclosed or pasture lands of their cities may not be sold; it is their perpetual possession.

وَأمّا الأرْضُ الَّتِي حَولَ مُدُنِهِمْ فَلا يَجُوزُ بَيعُها لِأنَّها مُلْكٌ أبَدِيُّ لِجَمِيعِ اللّاوِيِّينَ. شَرائِعُ خاصَّةٌ بِالعِيد

35 A nd if your brother has become poor and his hand wavers, then you shall uphold (strengthen, relieve) him, a stranger or a temporary resident with you, so that he may live with you.

«إنِ افتَقَرَ واحِدٌ مِنْ إخْوَتِكَ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ، وَلَمْ يَستَطِعْ إعالَةَ نَفسِهِ، فَساعِدْهُ، حَتَّى وَإنْ كانَ غَرِيباً مُقِيماً فِي أرْضِكَ أوْ نَزيلاً.

36 C harge him no interest or increase, but fear your God, so your brother may live along with you.

اخشَ إلَهَكَ وَلا تَأخُذْ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الشَّخصِ رِباً، لِكَي يَتَمَكَّنَ مِنَ العَيشِ بَينَكُمْ.

37 Y ou shall not give him your money at interest nor lend him food at a profit.

لا تُقرِضْهُ مالَكَ بِفائِدَةٍ، وَلا تُعطِهِ طَعامَكَ مُقابِلَ رِبحٍ.

38 I am the Lord your God, Who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan and to be your God.

أنا إلَهُكُمْ الَّذِي أخرَجَكُمْ مِنْ أرْضِ مِصرَ لِأُعطِيَكُمْ أرْضَ كَنعانَ، وَلِأكُونَ إلَهَكُمْ.

39 A nd if your brother becomes poor beside you and sells himself to you, you shall not compel him to serve as a bondman (a slave not eligible for redemption),

«إنِ افتَقَرَ أحَدٌ مِنْ شَعبِكَ وَباعَ نَفْسَهُ لَكَ، فَلا تَسْتَعْبِدْهُ.

40 B ut as a hired servant and as a temporary resident he shall be with you; he shall serve you till the Year of Jubilee,

بَلْ يَعْمَلُ لَدَيكَ كَأجِيرٍ أوْ وَكِيلٍ، وَيَخدِمُكَ إلَى سَنَةِ اليُوبِيلِ.

41 A nd then he shall depart from you, he and his children with him, and shall go back to his own family and return to the possession of his fathers.

ثُمَّ يَترُكُكَ هُوَ وَأولادُهُ وَيَعُودُونَ إلَى عَشِيرَتِهِمْ وَأرْضِ آبائِهِمْ،

42 F or the Israelites are My servants; I brought them out of the land of Egypt; they shall not be sold as bondmen.

لِأنَّهُمْ عَبِيدِي الَّذِينَ أخرَجتُهُمْ مِنْ أرْضِ مِصرَ، فَلا يُباعُونَ كَعَبِيدٍ.

43 Y ou shall not rule over him with harshness (severity, oppression), but you shall fear your God.

لا تَتَسَلَّطْ عَلَيهِ بِقَسوَةٍ، بَلِ اخشَ إلَهَكَ.

44 A s for your bondmen and your bondmaids whom you may have, they shall be from the nations round about you, of whom you may buy bondmen and bondmaids.

«يَنبَغِي أنْ يَكُونَ عَبِيدُكَ وَجَوارِيكَ مِنَ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي حَولَكَ، فَتَشتَرِي العَبِيدَ وَالجَوارِيَ مِنهُمْ.

45 M oreover, of the children of the strangers who sojourn among you, of them you may buy and of their families that are with you which they have begotten in your land, and they shall be your possession.

وَيُمكِنُكَ أنْ تَشتَرِيَ عَبِيداً مِنْ أبناءِ الغُرَباءِ السّاكِنِينَ مَعَكُمْ، أوْ مِنْ عَشائِرِهِمِ السّاكِنَةِ مَعَكُمُ الَّذِينَ وُلِدُوا فِي أرْضِكَ. هَؤُلاءِ يَكُونُونَ مُلكاً لَكَ.

46 A nd you shall make them an inheritance for your children after you, to hold for a possession; of them shall you take your bondmen always, but over your brethren the Israelites you shall not rule one over another with harshness (severity, oppression).

يُمْكِنُكُمْ أنْ تُورِّثُوهُ لأولادِكُمْ كَمُلكٍ دائِمٍ. يُمكِنُكُمْ أنْ تَستَعبِدُوا هَؤُلاءِ، وَأمّا الَّذِينَ مِنْ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ فَلا تَتَسَلَّطُوا عَلَيهِمْ بِقَسوَةٍ.

47 A nd if a sojourner or stranger with you becomes rich and your brother becomes poor beside him and sells himself to the stranger or sojourner with you or to a member of the stranger’s family,

«إنِ اغتَنَى غَرِيبٌ أوْ زائِرٌ بَينَكُمْ، وَافتَقَرَ واحِدٌ مِنْ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ فَباعَ نَفسَهُ لِلغَرِيبِ أوِ الزّائِرِ، أوْ لِشَخصٍ مِنْ عَشِيرَةِ الغَرِيبِ،

48 A fter he is sold he may be redeemed. One of his brethren may redeem him:

فَإنَّهُ بَعدَ بَيعِهِ يَنبَغِي شِراؤُهُ ثانِيَةً. يَفتَدِيهِ أخُوهُ

49 E ither his uncle or his uncle’s son may redeem him, or a near kinsman may redeem him; or if he has enough and is able, he may redeem himself.

أوْ عَمُّهُ أوِ ابْنُ عَمِّهِ أوْ قَرِيبٌ آخَرُ مِنْ عائِلَتِهِ. وَإنِ اغتَنَى هُوَ نَفسُهُ، فَيُمكِنُهُ أنْ يَفتَدِي نَفسَهُ.

50 A nd shall reckon with the purchaser of the servant from the year when he sold himself to the purchaser to the Year of Jubilee, and the price of his release shall be adjusted according to the number of years. The time he was with his owner shall be counted as that of a hired servant.

«فَيَحسِبُ العَبدُ وَمُشتَرِيهِ عَدَدَ السَّنَواتِ مِنْ سَنَةِ بَيعِهِ لِنَفسِهِ إلَى سَنَةِ اليُوبِيلِ، وَيُحَدَّدُ سِعْرُهُ بِحَسَبِ عَدَدِ السَّنَواتِ. وَتَكُونُ فَترَةُ عُبُودِيَّتِهِ كَفَترَةِ عَمَلِ أجِيرٍ لَدَيهِ.

51 I f there remain many years, in proportion to them he must refund for his release for his acquisition.

فَإنْ بَقِيَتْ سَنَواتٌ كَثِيرَةٌ إلَى سَنَةِ اليُوبِيلِ، يَدفَعُ ثَمَنَ تَحْرِيرِ نَفسِهِ حَسَبَ عَدَدِها.

52 A nd if little time remains until the Year of Jubilee, he shall count it over with him and he shall refund the proportionate amount for his release.

وَإنْ بَقِيَتْ سَنَواتٌ قَلِيلَةٌ إلَى سَنَةِ اليُوبِيلِ، يَدفَعُ ثَمَنَ تَحْرِيرِ نَفسِهِ حَسَبَ عَدَدِها.

53 A nd as a servant hired year by year shall he deal with him; he shall not rule over him with harshness (severity, oppression) in your sight.

وَيَعِيشُ الإسْرائِيلِيُّ عِندَ الغَرِيبِ كَأجِيرٍ مِنْ سَنَةٍ لِأُخرَى، فَلا يَتَسَلَّطْ عَلَيهِ بِقَسوَةٍ أمامَكُمْ.

54 A nd if he is not redeemed during these years and by these means, then he shall go free in the Year of Jubilee, he and his children with him.

«وَإنْ لَمْ يَتِمَّ شِراؤُهُ ثانِيَةً بِأيَّةِ طَريقَةٍ، فَإنَّهُ سَيُعتَقُ هُوَ وَأولادُهُ فِي سَنَةِ اليُوبِيلِ.

55 F or to Me the Israelites are servants, My servants, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt. I am the Lord your God.

لِأنَّ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ خُدّامِي أنا. إنَّهُمْ خُدّامِي الَّذِينَ أخرَجتُهُمْ مِنْ أرْضِ مِصرَ. أنا إلَهُكُمْ.
