¹安息年（申15:1~11）耶和華在西奈山對摩西說：

¹Yahweh said to Moses in Mount Sinai,

²“你要告訴以色列人，對他們說：你們到了我賜給你們的那地以後，地要守耶和華的安息。

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.

³六年之內，你要耕種田地；六年之內，你要修剪葡萄園，收藏地的出產；

³Six years you shall sow your field, and six years you shall prune your vineyard, and gather in its fruits;

⁴但是第七年，地要完全休歇，享受耶和華的安息；你不可耕種田地，也不可修剪葡萄園。

⁴but 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.

⁵你收割以後自然生長的莊稼，你不可收割；沒有修剪的葡萄樹果子，你也不可採摘；這一年，地要完全休歇。

⁵What grows of itself in your harvest you shall not reap, and the grapes of your undressed vine you shall not gather. It shall be a year of solemn rest for the land.

⁶地在安息年的自然出產，是給你們作食物；就是給你，你的僕婢、雇工和寄居的，就是與你們一起居住的人；

⁶The 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.

⁷甚至你的牲畜，以及你那地的走獸，都以安息年的出產作食物。

⁷For your livestock also, and for the animals that are in your land, shall all its increase be for food.

⁸禧年“你又要為自己計算七個安息年，就是七個七年，你經過了七個安息年，四十九年的日子以後，

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.

⁹在七月初十，你要吹角，在贖罪日，角聲要響遍你的全地。

⁹Then 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.

¹⁰你們要把第五十年分別為聖，向全地所有居民宣布自由；這一年是你們的禧年，你們各人要歸回自己的地業，歸回自己的父家。

¹⁰You 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.

¹¹第五十年是你們的禧年；這一年你們不可耕種，也不可收割自然生長的，也不可採摘沒有修剪的葡萄樹果子。

¹¹That 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.

¹²因為這是禧年，你們要當作聖年；你們可以吃地裡的出產。

¹²For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy to you. You shall eat of its increase out of the field.

¹³“在這禧年中，你們各人要歸回自己的地業。

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

¹⁴如果你賣甚麼給鄰舍，或是從鄰舍的手裡買甚麼，你們不可欺負對方。

¹⁴“‘If you sell anything to your neighbor, or buy from your neighbor, you shall not wrong one another.

¹⁵你要按照下一個禧年以前還剩餘的年數向鄰舍買；他也要按照這年數可得的出產價值賣給你。

¹⁵According 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.

¹⁶年數多，你付的買價就要增多。年數少，你付的買價就要減少。因為他是按出產的數值賣給你。

¹⁶According 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.

¹⁷你們不可欺負對方，卻要敬畏你的　神，因為我是耶和華你們的　神。

¹⁷You shall not wrong one another; but you shall fear your God: for I am Yahweh your God.

¹⁸“所以你們要遵行我的律例，謹守我的典章，遵照奉行，就可以在那地安然居住。

¹⁸“‘Therefore you shall do my statutes, and keep my ordinances and do them; and you shall dwell in the land in safety.

¹⁹地必生產果實，你們就可以吃飽，在那地安然居住。

¹⁹The land shall yield its fruit, and you shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.

²⁰如果你們問：在第七年我們不耕種，也不收藏我們的出產，我們吃甚麼呢？

²⁰If you said, “What shall we eat the seventh year? Behold, we shall not sow, nor gather in our increase”;

²¹在第六年，我必命我的福臨到你們，地就會生產足夠三年食用的出產。

²¹then I will command my blessing on you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth fruit for the three years.

²²第八年你們耕種時，仍有舊糧吃；直到第九年，收成新糧的時候，你還有舊糧可吃。

²²You 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.

²³贖回地土的條例“地不可永遠賣掉，因為地是我的；你們在我面前不過是寄居的和客旅。

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

²⁴在你們所得為業的全地，你們應該讓人有贖地的權利。

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

²⁵如果你的兄弟貧窮，賣了部分地業，他的至親可以來，把兄弟所賣的贖回。

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.

²⁶如果沒有代贖人，而他自己的經濟能力改善，足夠把地贖回，

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

²⁷他就要計算賣地的年數，把餘剩年數的出產數值還給那買主，他就可以收回自己的地業。

²⁷then 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.

²⁸如果他沒有足夠的能力為自己收回賣了的地，他所賣的就要存在買主的手裡，直到禧年；到了禧年，買主必須把地歸還，賣地的人可以收回自己的地業。

²⁸But 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.

²⁹贖回房屋的條例“如果有人賣了一所城內的住宅，在賣了以後的一整年之內，他有贖回的權利；在這些日子以內，他隨時可贖回。

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.

³⁰如果滿了一年期不贖回，那所城內的房屋，就要確定歸買主世世代代為業；就算到了禧年，買主也不必交出退還。

³⁰If 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.

³¹但房屋在四圍沒有城牆的村莊裡，就要算為鄉下的田地一樣，是可以贖回的；到了禧年，買主要交出退還。

³¹But the houses of the villages which have no wall around them shall be reckoned with the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall be released in the Jubilee.

³²至於利未人的城，就是他們所得為業的城，其中的房屋，利未人有隨時可以贖回的權利。

³²“‘Nevertheless the cities of the Levites, the houses in the cities of their possession, the Levites may redeem at any time.

³³如果一個利未人在他所得為業的城裡，沒有贖回已經賣了的房屋，到了禧年，買主仍要交出退還；因為利未人城裡的房屋，是他們在以色列人中的產業。

³³The 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.

³⁴只是他們城郊之地不可出賣，因為是他們永遠的地業。

³⁴But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not be sold; for it is their perpetual possession.

³⁵借錢給窮人的條例“如果你的兄弟貧窮，在你那裡手頭拮据，你要資助他，使他可以與你一同生活，像旅客寄居的一樣。

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

³⁶你不可向他收取高利，卻要敬畏你的　神，使你的兄弟可以與你一同生活。

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

³⁷你借錢給他，不可向他取利息；借糧給他，也不可要他多還。

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

³⁸我是耶和華你們的　神，曾經把你們從埃及地領出來，要把迦南地賜給你們，而且要作你們的　神。

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

³⁹買賣奴婢的條例“你的兄弟在你那裡若是貧窮了，賣身給你，你不可逼他作奴僕的工作。

³⁹“‘If your brother has grown poor among you, and sells himself to you; you shall not make him to serve as a slave.

⁴⁰他在你那裡要像雇工和寄居的一樣；他要服事你直到禧年。

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

⁴¹到了禧年，他和他的兒女要離開你，歸回他本家，歸回自己祖宗的地業。

⁴¹then 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.

⁴²因為他們是我的僕人，是我從埃及地領出來的，他們不可以賣作奴僕。

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

⁴³你不可嚴嚴地轄制他，卻要敬畏你的　神。

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

⁴⁴至於你需要的僕婢，可以來自你們四圍的列國，你們可以從他們中間購買奴婢。

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.

⁴⁵你們也可以從那些與你們住在一起的外人的兒女中，或是從他們的家族中，就是那些與你們在一起，在你們境內所生的，購買奴婢；他們要作你們的產業。

⁴⁵Moreover 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.

⁴⁶你們要把他們留給你們的子孫作永遠的產業，你們要從他們中間取奴僕；只是你們的兄弟以色列人，你們卻不可苛刻管轄。

⁴⁶You 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.

⁴⁷寄居者自賣為奴的條例“在你中間寄居的外人或是客旅若是富足起來，你的兄弟在他那裡卻漸漸窮乏，把自己賣給住在你那裡寄居的外人或客旅的家族，

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;

⁴⁸賣了自己以後，他仍有贖回的權利；他兄弟中的任何一個都可以贖他；

⁴⁸after he is sold he may be redeemed. One of his brothers may redeem him;

⁴⁹他的叔伯或是他叔伯的兒子可以贖他，他家族中的骨肉至親也可以贖他；如果他自己的經濟能力改善，也可以自贖。

⁴⁹or 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.

⁵⁰他要與買主計算，從賣身那一年起，直到禧年為止；照著年數的多少，按雇工的工價計算贖銀。

⁵⁰He shall reckon with him who bought him from the year that he sold himself to him to the Year of Jubilee: and the price of his sale shall be according to the number of years; according to the time of a hired servant shall he be with him.

⁵¹如果賣身時還有很多年才到禧年，他就要按著年數，照他賣身的價銀按比例償還他的贖價。

⁵¹If 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.

⁵²如果距離禧年只有幾年，他就按著年數，與買主計算，按雇工的工價，償還他的贖價。

⁵²If 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.

⁵³買主要像每年雇用的工人那樣待他。不可在你眼前苛刻地管轄他。

⁵³As a servant hired year by year shall he be with him: he shall not rule with harshness over him in your sight.

⁵⁴如果他不在這些年間把自己贖回，到了禧年，也可以和他的兒女一同離去。

⁵⁴If he isn’t redeemed by these means, then he shall be released in the Year of Jubilee, he, and his children with him.

⁵⁵因為以色列人都是屬我的僕人；他們是我的僕人，是我把他們從埃及地領了出來的；我是耶和華你們的　神。”

⁵⁵For 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.
