1 Y ahweh said to Moses in Mount Sinai,

وَقالَ اللهُ لِمُوسَى عَلَى جَبَلِ سِيناءَ:

2 “ Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When you come into the land which I give you, then the land shall keep a Sabbath to Yahweh.

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

3 Y ou shall sow your field six years, and you shall prune your vineyard six years, 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 Yahweh. You shall not sow your field or 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 you shall not gather the grapes of your undressed vine. It shall be a year of solemn rest for the land.

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

6 T he Sabbath of the land shall be for food for you; for yourself, for your servant, for your maid, for your hired servant, and for your stranger, who lives as a foreigner 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 livestock also, and for the animals that are in your land, shall all its increase be for food.

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

8 “ ‘You shall count off seven Sabbaths of years, seven times seven years; and there shall be to you the days of seven Sabbaths of years, even forty-nine years.

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

9 T hen you shall sound the loud trumpet on the tenth day of the seventh month. On the Day of Atonement you shall sound the trumpet throughout all your land.

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

10 Y ou shall make the fiftieth year holy, and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee to you; and each of you shall return to his own property, 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 to you. In it you shall not sow, neither reap that which grows of itself, nor gather from the undressed 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 of its increase out of the field.

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

13 “ ‘In this Year of Jubilee each of you shall return to his property.

فِي سَنَةِ اليُوبِيلِ سَيَعُودُ كُلُّ واحِدٍ مِنكُمْ إلَى مُلكِهِ.

14 “ ‘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. According to the number of years of the crops he shall sell to you.

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

16 A ccording to the length of the years you shall increase its price, and according to the shortness of the years you shall diminish its price; for he is selling the number of the crops 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 wrong one another; but you shall fear your God: for I am Yahweh your God.

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

18 “ ‘Therefore you shall do my statutes, and keep my ordinances and do them; and you shall 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, and you shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.

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

20 I f you said, “What shall we eat the seventh year? Behold, we shall not sow, nor 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 blessing on you in the sixth year, and it shall bear fruit for the three years.

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

22 Y ou shall sow the eighth year, and eat of the fruits, the old store; until the ninth year, until its fruits come in, you shall eat the old store.

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

23 “ ‘The land shall not be sold in perpetuity, for the land is mine; for you are strangers and live as foreigners with me.

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

24 I n all the land of your possession you shall grant a redemption for the land.

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

25 “ ‘If your brother becomes poor, and sells some of his possessions, then his kinsman who is next to him shall come, and redeem that which his brother has sold.

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

26 I f a man has no one to redeem it, and he becomes prosperous and finds sufficient means to redeem it;

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

27 t hen let him reckon the years since its sale, and restore the surplus to the man to whom he sold it; and he shall return to his property.

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

28 B ut if he isn’t able to get it back for himself, then what he has sold shall remain in the hand of him who has bought it until the Year of Jubilee: and in the Jubilee it shall be released, and he shall return to his property.

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 “ ‘If a man sells a dwelling house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it has been sold. For a full year he shall 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 I f it isn’t redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city shall be made sure in perpetuity to him who bought it, throughout his generations. It shall not be released in the 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 villages which have no wall around them shall be accounted for with the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall be released in the 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 “ ‘Nevertheless 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 T he Levites may redeem the house that was sold, and the city of his possession, and it shall be released in the Jubilee; for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.

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 the suburbs of their cities may not be sold; for it is their perpetual possession.

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

35 “ ‘If your brother has become poor, and his hand can’t support himself among you; then you shall uphold him. He shall live with you like an alien and a temporary resident.

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

36 T ake no interest from him or profit, but fear your God; that your brother may live among you.

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

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

لا تُقرِضْهُ مالَكَ بِفائِدَةٍ، وَلا تُعطِهِ طَعامَكَ مُقابِلَ رِبحٍ.

38 I am Yahweh your God, who brought you 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 “ ‘If your brother has grown poor among you, and sells himself to you; you shall not make him to serve as a slave.

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

40 A s a hired servant, and as a temporary resident, he shall be with you; he shall serve with you until the Year of Jubilee:

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

41 t hen he shall go out from you, he and his children with him, and shall return to his own family, and to the possession of his fathers.

ثُمَّ يَترُكُكَ هُوَ وَأولادُهُ وَيَعُودُونَ إلَى عَشِيرَتِهِمْ وَأرْضِ آبائِهِمْ،

42 F or they are my servants, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt. They shall not be sold as slaves.

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

43 Y ou shall not rule over him with harshness, but shall fear your God.

لا تَتَسَلَّطْ عَلَيهِ بِقَسوَةٍ، بَلِ اخشَ إلَهَكَ.

44 “ ‘As for your male and your female slaves, whom you may have; of the nations that are around you, from them you may buy male and female slaves.

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

45 M oreover of the children of the aliens who live among you, of them you may buy, and of their families who are with you, which they have conceived in your land; and they will be your property.

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

46 Y ou may make them an inheritance for your children after you, to hold for a possession; of them may you take your slaves forever; but over your brothers the children of Israel you shall not rule, one over another, with harshness.

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

47 “ ‘If an alien or temporary resident with you becomes rich, and your brother beside him has grown poor, and sells himself to the stranger or foreigner living among 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 brothers may redeem him;

فَإنَّهُ بَعدَ بَيعِهِ يَنبَغِي شِراؤُهُ ثانِيَةً. يَفتَدِيهِ أخُوهُ

49 o r his uncle, or his uncle’s son, may redeem him, or any who is a close relative to him of his family may redeem him; or if he has grown rich, he may redeem himself.

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

50 H e shall reckon with him who bought him from the year that he sold himself to him to the Year of Jubilee. The price of his sale shall be according to the number of years; he shall be with him according to the time 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 are yet many years, according to them he shall give back the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for.

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

52 I f there remain but a few years to the year of jubilee, then he shall reckon with him; according to his years of service he shall give back the price of his redemption.

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

53 A s a servant hired year by year shall he be with him. He shall not rule with harshness over him in your sight.

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

54 I f he isn’t redeemed by these means, then he shall be released 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 children of Israel are servants; they are my servants whom I brought out of the land of Egypt. I am Yahweh your God.
