¹Zvino Jehovha wakataura naMozisi pagomo reSinai, akati,

¹Yahweh said to Moses in Mount Sinai,

²Taura navana vaIsiraeri uti kwavari: Kana muchisvika munyika yandichakupai, nyika inofanira kuitira Jehovha sabata.

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.

³Unofanira kudzvara munda wako makore matanhatu, nokugurira mizambiringa yako makore matanhatu, nokuunganidza michero yayo.

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

⁴Asi pagore rechinomwe nyika inofanira kuzorora kwazvo, rive sabata kuna Jehovha; usadzvara munda wako, kana kugurira mizambiringa yako.

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.

⁵Magoko ako usaakohwa, namazambiringa omuzambiringa wako usina kugurirwa usaatanha; rinofanira kuva gore rokuzorora kwazvo kwenyika.

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.

⁶Gohwo resabata renyika ndizvo zvinofanira kuva zvokudya zvenyu; zvako nezvomuranda wako, nezvomurandakadzi wako, nezvomubatiri wako, nezvomutorwa wako ugere newe;

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.

⁷nezvezvipfuwo zvako, nezvemhuka dziri munyika yako; zvibereko zvazvo zvose zvinofanira kuva zvokudya zvazvo.

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

⁸Unofanira kuverengawo masabata manomwe amakore, manomwe akaverengwa kanomwe; kuti mazuva amasabata manomwe amakore aite kwauri makore makumi mana namapfumbamwe.

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.

⁹Zvino pazuva regumi romwedzi wechinomwe unofanira kuraira kuti hwamanda iridzwe kwazvo; pazuva rokuyananisira munofanira kuraira kuti hwamanda iridzwe panyika yenyu yose.

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.

¹⁰Munofanira kutsaura gore ramakumi mashanu, mugoparidza sununguko panyika yose kuna vose vageremo; rinofanira kuva gore rejubheri kwamuri; munofanira .kudzokera mumwe nomumwe kune zvake, munofanira kudzokera mumwe nomumwe kuhama dzake.

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.

¹¹Gore irero ramakumi mashanu rinofanira kuva rejubheri kwamuri; kusadzvara, uye musakohwa naro magoko, uye musatanha naro pamizambiringa isina kugurirwa.

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.

¹²nekuti igore rejubheri; rinofanira kuva dzvene kwamuri; munofanira kudya zvibereko zvaro paminda.

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

¹³Negore iri rejubheri munofanira kudzokera mumwe nomumwe kune zvake.

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

¹⁴Zvino kana uchitengesera wokwako chinhu, kana kutenga chinhu kwaari, musamanikidzana.

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

¹⁵Utenge kuno wokwako uchienzanisa namakore kubva pagore rejubheri, naiye unofanira kukutengesera achienzanisa namakore akasara okukohwa.

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.

¹⁶Unofanira kuwedzera mutengo wazvo uchienzanisa nokuwanda kwamakore, uye unofanira kutapudza mutengo uchienzanisa noushoma hwamakore; nekuti iye unokutengesera nguva dzokukohwa.

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.

¹⁷Musamanikidzana, asi utye Mwari wako; nekuti ndini Jehovha Mwari wenyu.

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

¹⁸Naizvozvo munofanira kuita zvandakatema, nokuchengeta zvandakatonga, nokuzviita, kuti mugare munyika makachengeteka.

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

¹⁹Nyika ichabereka zvibereko zvayo, imwi muchadya mukaguta, mukagaramo makachengeteka.

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

²⁰Zvino kana mukati, Tichadyei negore rechinomwe? Tarirai, hatifaniri kudzvara, hatifaniri kuunganidza zvibereko zvedu ;

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

²¹ipapo ndicharaira kuti mukomborerwe neni pagore rechitanhatu, kuti rikuberekerei zvibereko zvicharingana makore matatu.

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

²²Negore rorusere muchadzvara, muchidya zvibereko zvisharu, kusvikira gore repfumbamwe, kusvikira zvibereko zvaro zvichisvika, muchadya zvisharu.

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.

²³Nyika haifaniri kutengeswa chose nokusingaperi, nekuti nyika ndeyangu; nekuti muri vaeni navatorwa kwandiri.

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

²⁴Panyika yenyu yose munofanira kutendera kuti nyika idzikunurwe.

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

²⁵Kana hama yako ikava murombo, ikatengesa zvimwe zvayo, ipapo hama yake yomumba inofanira kuuya kuzodzikunura izvo zvakatengeswa nehama yako.

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.

²⁶Kana munhu akashaiwa unozvidzikunura, akazova mufumi, akawana zvinoringana kuzvidzikunura;

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

²⁷unofanira kuverenga makore kubva pakutengeswa kwazvo, agodzosera kuna iye waakatengana naye zvakasara, iye ndokudzokera kune zvake;

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.

²⁸asi kana asingagoni kuzvidzikunura, izvo zvaakatengesa zvinofanira kugara kuna iye wakazvitenga kusvikira pagore rejubheri; zvino pagore rejubheri zvinofanira kusunungurwa, iye agodzokera kune zvake.

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.

²⁹Kana munhu akatengesa imba iri muguta rakakombwa namasvingo, ungaidzikunura gore rose raakatenga naro risati rapera; unofanira kuva nesimba rokuidzikunura gore rose.

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.

³⁰Kana isingadzikunurwi gore rose rikapera, zvino imba iyo iri muguta rakakombwa namasvingo inofanira kusimbiswa kuti ndeyaiye wakaitenga nokusingaperi, nokumarudzi ake; haingasunungurwi negore rejubheri.

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.

³¹Asi dzimba dzemisha isina kukombwa namasvingo dzinofanira kuverengwa pamwechete neminda yenyika; dzingadzikunurwa, dzichasunungurwa pagore rejubheri.

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.

³²Asi pamaguta avaRevhi, idzo dzimba pamaguta avo, vaRevhi vangadzidzikunura nguva ipi neipi.

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

³³Kana munhu akadzikunura kuva Revhi, imba yakatengeswa neguta rake zvinofanira kusunungurwa pagore rejubheri; nekuti dzimba mumaguta avaRevhi ndedzavo pakati pavana vaIsiraeri.

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.

³⁴Asi minda yokuruwa rwamaguta avo haingatengeswi, nekuti ndeyavo nokusingaperi.

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

³⁵Kana hama yako ikava murombo, akapera simba anewe, unofanira kumubatsira, agare newe somweni kana mutorwa.

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.

³⁶Usatora mhindu yemari kwaari kana yezvibereko kwaari, asi unofanira kutya Mwari wako, kuti hama yako igare newe.

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

³⁷Usamupa mari yako uchireva mhindu, kana zvokudya zvako uchireva kuwedzerwa.

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

³⁸Ndini Jehovha Mwari wenyu, wakakubudisai munyika yeEgipita, kuti ndikupei nyika yeKanani, ndive Mwari wenyu.

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.

³⁹Kana hama yako ikava murombo, agere newe, akazvitengesa kwauri, usamubatisa somusungwa;

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

⁴⁰ngaave somubatiri unopiwa mubayiro, kana somutorwa kwauri; ngaakubatire kusvikira pagore rejubheri.

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

⁴¹Ipapo ngaabude hake kwauri, iye pamwechete navana vake, adzokere kuhama dzake, adzokere kuna madzibaba ake.

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.

⁴²nekuti ivo varanda vangu vandakabudisa munyika yeEgipita; ngavarege kutengeswa, sezvinoitwa vasungwa.

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

⁴³Usamubata nehasha, asi utye Mwari wako.

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

⁴⁴Kana vari vasungwa vako, varume kana vakadzi, vauchazova navo mungazvitengera vasungwa, varume navakadzi, kumarudzi anokupoteredzai.

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.

⁴⁵Mungatengawo kuvana vavatorwa vagere pakati penyu nokuvana vavo vari pakati penyu, vavakabereka panyika yenyu; ivo vangava venyu.

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.

⁴⁶Muvaite nhaka yavana venyu vanokuteverai, kuti vave vavo; munofanira kutora vasungwa venyu kwavari nokuvana vaIsiraeri, mumwe ngaarege kubata mumwe nehasha.

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.

⁴⁷Kana mweni kana mutorwa akafuma agere newe, asi hama yako igere naye ikava murombo, akazvitengesa kumweni kana mutorwa uyo ugere newe, kana kumwana worudzi rwomweni uyo,

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;

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.
