25 Korero ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi i Maunga Hinai, i mea,
2 Korero ki nga tama a Iharaira, mea atu ki a ratou, E tae koutou ki te whenua e hoatu e ahau ki a koutou, na ka whakahapati te whenua i tetahi hapati ki a Ihowa.
3 E ono nga tau e whakatongia ai e koe tau mara, e ono hoki nga tau e tapatapahia ai e koe tau mara waina, e kohia ai hoki ona hua;
4 Ko te whitu ia o nga tau hei hapati okiokinga mo te whenua, hei hapati ki a Ihowa: kaua e whakatongia tau mara, e tapatapahia ranei tau mara waina.
5 Kaua e kotia te mea i tupu noa ake i tera kotinga au, kaua ano e whakiia nga karepe o tau waina kihai nei i mahia: he tau okiokinga hoki tena mo te whenua.
6 A hei kai ma koutou te hapati o te whenua; mau, ma tau pononga tane, ma tau pononga wahine, ma tau kaimahi, ma tou manene hoki e noho ana i a koe;
7 Ma au kararehe hoki, ma te kirehe hoki o tou whenua, ona hua katoa, hei kai.
8 A me tatau e koe kia whitu nga tau hapati, kia whitu nga whitu o nga tau; a ko taua takiwa, ko nga tau hapati e whitu, ka kiia e koe e wha tekau ma iwa tau.
9 Katahi ka whakatangihia e koe te tetere tangi nui i te tekau o nga ra o te whitu o nga marama; ko a te ra whakamarietanga mea ai koutou kia paku atu te tangi o te tetere puta noa i to koutou whenua.
10 A me whakatapu te rima tekau o nga tau, ka karanga ai i te haere noa puta noa i te whenua ma nga tangata katoa o te whenua: hei tiupiri nui tena ma koutou; a me hoki koutou ki tona kainga, ki tona kainga, me hoki ano ki ona whanaunga, ki ona wha naunga.
11 Ko tena tau, ko te rima tekau, hei tiupiri ma koutou: kaua e rui, kaua e kokoti i te mea tupu noa ake o tena tau, kaua hoki e whakiia nga waina kihai i mahia.
12 Ko te tiupiri hoki ia; kia tapu ki a koutou; ko ona hua o te mara hei kai ma koutou.
13 Me hoki koutou i tenei tau tiupiri, ki tona kainga, ki tona kainga,
14 Ki te hokona atu ano e koe tetahi mea ki tou hoa, ki te hokona mai ranei tetahi mea e te ringa o tou hoa, kaua e tukinotia tetahi e tetahi:
15 Kia rite au utu ki tou hoa ki te maha o nga tau i muri i te tiupiri; kia rite ano ki te maha o nga tau hua tana hoko ki a koe.
16 Kia rite tau whakanui i te utu o taua mea ki te maha o nga tau, kia rite hoki taua whakaiti i ona utu ki te torutoru o nga tau: e rite ana hoki ki te maha o nga tau hua tana hoko ki a koe:
17 A kaua e tukino tetahi ki tetahi, engari me wehi koe ki tou Atua: ko Ihowa hoki ahau, ko to koutou Atua.
18 Mo reira me mahi e koutou aku tikanga, me pupuru aku whakaritenga, me mahi hoki; a ka noho humarie koutou i runga i te whenua,
19 A ka tukua ona hua e te whenua, a ka kai koutou ka makona, ka noho humarie hoki ki reira.
20 A ki te mea koutou, He aha he kai ma tatou i te whitu o nga tau? titiro hoki, e kore tatou e rua, e kore hoki e kohi i a tatou hua:
21 Maku ra e whakahau iho taku manaaki ki a koutou i te ono o nga tau, a ka whai hua mo nga tau e toru.
22 A ka rui koutou i te waru o nga tau, ka kai ano i nga hua pakoko; a tae noa ki te iwa o nga tau, me kai nga mea pakoko, kia riro ra ano nga hua o tena tau.
23 Kaua e hokona te whenua, he mea oti tonu atu; noku hoki te whenua; he manene hoki koutou, he noho noa ki ahau.
24 Me whakaae hoki ki te utu e hoki ai te whenua, i to koutou whenua katoa.
25 Ki te rawakoretia tou teina, a ka hokona e ia tetahi wahi o tona kainga, me haere mai tona whanaunga e tata rawa ana ki a ia, ka utu i te mea i hokona atu e tona teina kia hoki ai.
26 A ki te kahore he kaiutu a tetahi tangata, a ka whiwhi taonga ia a ka taea ano e ia te utu;
27 Na me tatau e ia nga tau i hokona ai, a ka whakahoki i te tuhene ki te tangata i hokona atu ai; a ka hoki ai ia ki tona kainga.
28 Otiia ki te kahore e taea e ia te whakahoki mai ki a ia ano, na me waiho tana i hoko ai ki te ringa o te tangata nana i hoko, a tae noa ki te tau tiupiri: a i te tiupiri ka riro, a ka hoki ia ki tona kainga.
29 Ki te hokona e te tangata he whare nohoanga i te pa taiepa, e ahei ia te utu kia hoki mai ano i roto i te tau kotahi i muri i te rironga: kotahi tino tau hei whakahokinga mana.
30 A ki te kahore e utua, a tino taka noa te tau, katahi ka whakapumautia mo ake tonu atu te whare i te pa taiepa mo te tangata nana i hoki, puta noa i ona whakatupuranga: e kore e riro i te tiupiri.
31 Ko nga whare ia o nga kainga, kahore nei he taiepa a tawhio noa, ka kiia e rite ana ki nga parae o te whenua: ka hoki ano ena ina utua, ka riro ano i te tuipiri.
32 Ko nga pa ia o nga Riwaiti, me nga whare o nga pa e nohoia ana e ratou, e hoki ki nga Riwaiti, ahakoa utua i tehea wa.
33 A, mehemea na tetahi o nga Riwaiti i utu, na ka riro te whare i hokona ra me tona pa i te tiupiri; ko nga whare hoki o nga pa o nga Riwaiti to ratou kainga pumau i roto i nga tama a Iharaira.
34 Ko te mara ia i te taha o o ratou pa kaua e hokona; no te mea he wahi pumau tena no ratou.
35 A ki te rawakoretia tou teina, a ka wiri tona ringa i roto i a koe; me atawhai e koe; me noho manene ia, me noho noa ranei i a koe.
36 Kaua e tangohia i a ia he moni whakatuputupu, he whakanuinga ranei; engari me wehi koe ki tou Atua; kia noho ai tou teina i a koe.
37 Kaua tau moni e hoatu ki a ia hei mea whakatuputupu, kaua ano hoki au kai e hoatu ki a ia, me te whakaaro ano ki tetahi whakanuinga ake.
38 Ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua, i kawe mai nei i a koutou i te whenua o Ihipa, e mea nei kia hoatu te whenua o Kanaana ki a koutou kia waiho ano ahau hei Atua mo koutou.
39 A ki te rawakoretia tou teina e noho ana i roto i a koe, a ka hokona ki a koe; kaua ia e whakamahia e koe ki te mahi pononga;
40 Kia rite ia i roto i a koe ki te kaimahi, ki te noho noa; ka mahi ano ia ki a koe, a tae noa ki te tau tiupiri:
41 Ko reira ia mawehe ai i a koe, ratou ko ana tamariki, a ka hoki ki ona whanaunga, ka hoki ano ki te kainga o ona matua.
42 Ko ratou hoki aku pononga, i whakaputaina mai ai e ahau i te whenua o Ihipa; kaua ratou e hokona hei pononga.
43 Kaua e taikaha tau whakarangatira ki a ia; engari me wehi ki tou Atua.
44 Tena ko nga pononga tane me nga pononga wahine mau; me hoko e koe i nga iwi i tetahi taha ou, i tetahi taha, he pononga tane, he pononga wahine mau.
45 Ma koutou ano hoki e hoko etahi o nga tamariki a nga manene e noho ana i roto i a koutou, etahi hoki o roto o o ratou hapu i roto i a koutou, o nga mea i whanau i a ratou ki to koutou whenua: a puritia iho ma koutou.
46 Me waiho hoki ena e koutou hei taonga tupu e tukua iho kia puritia e a koutou tama i muri i a koutou; hei pononga ratou ma koutou ake ake: kaua ia e taikaha ta koutou whakarangatira ki a koutou ano, ki o koutou teina, ki nga tama a Iharaira.
47 Ki te whai rawa hoki te manene, noho noa ranei, i roto i a koe, a ka rawakoretia tou teina i tona taha, a ka hoko i a ia ki te manene, ki te noho noa ranei i roto i a koe, ki te toronga ranei o te hapu o te manene:
48 E whakahokia ano ia mo te utu i muri i tona hokonga; ma tetahi o ona teina ia e whakahoki.
49 Ma tona matua keke, ma te tamaiti ranei a tona matua keke ia e whakahoki, ma tetahi ranei o ona whanaunga tupu o tona hapu ia e whakahoki; mana ano ranei ia e whakahoki, ki te taea e ia.
50 Na ka tatau ia, raua ko te tangata nana ia i hoko, ka timata i te tau i hokona ai ia ki a ia, tae noa ki te tau tiupiri: a ka rite te utu e hokona ai ia ki te maha o nga tau; kia rite ki o te kaimahi ona ra ki a ia.
51 Ki te maha ake nga tau, kia rite ki ena te utu mo tona hokinga e whakahokia atu e ia i roto i te moni i hokona ai ia.
52 A ki te torutoru nga tau e toe ana ki te tau tiupiri, na ka tatau raua; a kia rite ki ona tau te utu e whakahokia e ia ki a ia.
53 Ko tona noho ki a ia kia rite ki ta te kaimahi e utua ana i te tau: kaua hoki tera e whakatupu rangatira nanakia ki a ia i tau tirohanga.
54 A ki te kahore ia e hokona i enei tikanga, na me haere atu ia i te tau tiupiri, ratou tahi ko ana tamariki.
55 He pononga hoki ki ahau nga tama a Iharaira; ko aku pononga ratou i whakaputaina mai e ahau i te whenua o Ihipa; ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua.

The Sabbath Year
25 The Lord said to Moses at Mount Sinai,(A) 2 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘When you enter the land I am going to give you, the land itself must observe a sabbath to the Lord. 3 For six years sow your fields, and for six years prune your vineyards and gather their crops.(B) 4 But in the seventh year the land is to have a year of sabbath rest,(C) a sabbath to the Lord. Do not sow your fields or prune your vineyards.(D) 5 Do not reap what grows of itself(E) or harvest the grapes(F) of your untended vines.(G) The land is to have a year of rest. 6 Whatever the land yields during the sabbath year(H) will be food for you—for yourself, your male and female servants, and the hired worker and temporary resident who live among you, 7 as well as for your livestock and the wild animals(I) in your land. Whatever the land produces may be eaten.
The Year of Jubilee(J)(K)
8 “‘Count off seven sabbath years—seven times seven years—so that the seven sabbath years amount to a period of forty-nine years. 9 Then have the trumpet(L) sounded everywhere on the tenth day of the seventh month;(M) on the Day of Atonement(N) sound the trumpet throughout your land. 10 Consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty(O) throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee(P) for you; each of you is to return to your family property(Q) and to your own clan. 11 The fiftieth year shall be a jubilee(R) for you; do not sow and do not reap what grows of itself or harvest the untended vines.(S) 12 For it is a jubilee and is to be holy for you; eat only what is taken directly from the fields.
13 “‘In this Year of Jubilee(T) everyone is to return to their own property.
14 “‘If you sell land to any of your own people or buy land from them, do not take advantage of each other.(U) 15 You are to buy from your own people on the basis of the number of years(V) since the Jubilee. And they are to sell to you on the basis of the number of years left for harvesting crops. 16 When the years are many, you are to increase the price, and when the years are few, you are to decrease the price,(W) because what is really being sold to you is the number of crops. 17 Do not take advantage of each other,(X) but fear your God.(Y) I am the Lord your God.(Z)
18 “‘Follow my decrees and be careful to obey my laws,(AA) and you will live safely in the land.(AB) 19 Then the land will yield its fruit,(AC) and you will eat your fill and live there in safety.(AD) 20 You may ask, “What will we eat in the seventh year(AE) if we do not plant or harvest our crops?” 21 I will send you such a blessing(AF) in the sixth year that the land will yield enough for three years.(AG) 22 While you plant during the eighth year, you will eat from the old crop and will continue to eat from it until the harvest of the ninth year comes in.(AH)
23 “‘The land(AI) must not be sold permanently, because the land is mine(AJ) and you reside in my land as foreigners(AK) and strangers. 24 Throughout the land that you hold as a possession, you must provide for the redemption(AL) of the land.
25 “‘If one of your fellow Israelites becomes poor and sells some of their property, their nearest relative(AM) is to come and redeem(AN) what they have sold. 26 If, however, there is no one to redeem it for them but later on they prosper(AO) and acquire sufficient means to redeem it themselves, 27 they are to determine the value for the years(AP) since they sold it and refund the balance to the one to whom they sold it; they can then go back to their own property.(AQ) 28 But if they do not acquire the means to repay, what was sold will remain in the possession of the buyer until the Year of Jubilee. It will be returned(AR) in the Jubilee, and they can then go back to their property.(AS)
29 “‘Anyone who sells a house in a walled city retains the right of redemption a full year after its sale. During that time the seller may redeem it. 30 If it is not redeemed before a full year has passed, the house in the walled city shall belong permanently to the buyer and the buyer’s descendants. It is not to be returned in the Jubilee. 31 But houses in villages without walls around them are to be considered as belonging to the open country. They can be redeemed, and they are to be returned in the Jubilee.
32 “‘The Levites always have the right to redeem their houses in the Levitical towns,(AT) which they possess. 33 So the property of the Levites is redeemable—that is, a house sold in any town they hold—and is to be returned in the Jubilee, because the houses in the towns of the Levites are their property among the Israelites. 34 But the pastureland belonging to their towns must not be sold; it is their permanent possession.(AU)
35 “‘If any of your fellow Israelites become poor(AV) and are unable to support themselves among you, help them(AW) as you would a foreigner and stranger, so they can continue to live among you. 36 Do not take interest(AX) or any profit from them, but fear your God,(AY) so that they may continue to live among you. 37 You must not lend them money at interest(AZ) or sell them food at a profit. 38 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan(BA) and to be your God.(BB)
39 “‘If any of your fellow Israelites become poor and sell themselves to you, do not make them work as slaves.(BC) 40 They are to be treated as hired workers(BD) or temporary residents among you; they are to work for you until the Year of Jubilee. 41 Then they and their children are to be released, and they will go back to their own clans and to the property(BE) of their ancestors.(BF) 42 Because the Israelites are my servants, whom I brought out of Egypt,(BG) they must not be sold as slaves. 43 Do not rule over them ruthlessly,(BH) but fear your God.(BI)
44 “‘Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves. 45 You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property. 46 You can bequeath them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life, but you must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly.
47 “‘If a foreigner residing among you becomes rich and any of your fellow Israelites become poor and sell themselves(BJ) to the foreigner or to a member of the foreigner’s clan, 48 they retain the right of redemption(BK) after they have sold themselves. One of their relatives(BL) may redeem them: 49 An uncle or a cousin or any blood relative in their clan may redeem them. Or if they prosper,(BM) they may redeem themselves. 50 They and their buyer are to count the time from the year they sold themselves up to the Year of Jubilee.(BN) The price for their release is to be based on the rate paid to a hired worker(BO) for that number of years. 51 If many years remain, they must pay for their redemption a larger share of the price paid for them. 52 If only a few years remain until the Year of Jubilee, they are to compute that and pay for their redemption accordingly.(BP) 53 They are to be treated as workers hired from year to year; you must see to it that those to whom they owe service do not rule over them ruthlessly.(BQ)
54 “‘Even if someone is not redeemed in any of these ways, they and their children are to be released in the Year of Jubilee, 55 for the Israelites belong to me as servants. They are my servants, whom I brought out of Egypt.(BR) I am the Lord your God.(BS)
