¹Yahweh said to Moses in Mount Sinai,

¹ Rabbi salaŋ Musa se koyne Sinayi tondo ra, ka ne:

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.

² «Ma salaŋ Israyla izey se ka ne: D'araŋ furo laabo kaŋ ay g'araŋ no din ra, kala laabo ma fulanzamay haggoy Rabbi se.

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

³ Jiiri iddu no ni ga ni faro duma. Jiiri iddu mo no ni ga ni reyzin* kalo hanse k'a izey kosu.

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.

⁴ Amma jiiri iyyanta ga ciya sududuyaŋ fulanzamay Rabbi se. Ma si ni faro duma, ma si ni reyzin kalo hanse mo.

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.

⁵ Jarawo kaŋ ga te heemaro waate, ni ma s'a wi. Reyzin izey kaŋ ni kalo kaŋ ni mana hanse din ga hay mo, ni ma s'i kosu. Fulanzamay hanno jiiro nooya laabo se.

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.

⁶ Haŋ kaŋ laabo ga hay nga boŋ se fulanzamay jiiro ra a ga te araŋ se ŋwaari, nin da ni bannya da ni koŋŋa, da ni goy-ize, da ni ce-yawo mo.

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

⁷ A ga te mo ni almaney se, da laabo ganjo ra ham kulu se -- i se no jaraw kulu ga te ŋwaari.

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.

⁸ Koyne, ni ga fulanzamay jiiri iyye lasaabu ni boŋ se, sanda jiiri iyye hala sorro iyye. Jirbey kulu hala fulanzamay jiiri iyya ma kubay ga to jiiri waygu afo si nooya.

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.

⁹ Waato din gaa ni ma kaakaaci kar da gaabi ka fe handu iyyanta ra, a jirbi waya hane. Sasabandiyaŋ zaaro nooya kaŋ araŋ ga kaakaaci kar ka fe araŋ laabo me-a-me ra.

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.

¹⁰ Araŋ ma jiiri wayguwanta ciya hanante. Araŋ ma burcinitaray fe laabo kulu ra, laab'izey kulu se. A ga goro Yubili* araŋ se. Boro fo kulu ga ye nga mayray haro do. Boro kulu mo ga ye nga fu borey do.

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.

¹¹ Jiiri waygo din ga ciya araŋ se Yubili. Araŋ ma si duma, araŋ ma si jaraw wi mo jiiro din ra. Reyzin nyaŋey kaŋ yaŋ araŋ mana hanse mo, wa s'i kosu.

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

¹² Zama Yubili no. A ma hanan araŋ se, araŋ m'a albarka kaŋ ga fun fari ra ŋwa.

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

¹³ Yubili jiiro din ra mo, boro kulu ga ye fu nga mayray haro do.

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

¹⁴ Da ni na hay fo neera ni gorokasin se, wala ni na hay fo day a gaa, araŋ ma si zamba te care se.

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.

¹⁵ Mate kaŋ cine Yubili banda jiirey baa nd'a, yaadin no ni ga day ni gorokasin gaa. Mate kaŋ jiirey baa kaŋ i ga farey wi no a g'a neera ni se.

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.

¹⁶ D'i na jiirey lasaabu kaŋ i baa, yaadin cine no i ga daymi nooro tonton. Da jiirey mana baa, yaadin cine no i ga daymi nooro zabu, zama heemar wiyaŋ lasaabu no a g'a neera ni se d'a.

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

¹⁷ Araŋ ma si care zamba mo, amma ni ma humburu ni Irikoyo, zama ay ya Rabbi araŋ Irikoyo no.

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

¹⁸ Woodin sabbay se, araŋ m'ay hin sanney te, ka haggoy d'ay farilley k'i te, araŋ ga goro laabo ra mo baani samay.

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

¹⁹ Laabo mo ga nga albarka hay. Araŋ ma ŋwa ka kungu, ka goro a ra baani samay.

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

²⁰ D'araŋ ga ne: ‹Ifo no iri ga ŋwa jiiri iyyanta ra? Zama guna, iri si duma, iri si daŋ barma ra mo.›

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

²¹ Kal ay m'ay albarka lordi araŋ boŋ jiiri iddanta ra a ma albarka hay kaŋ ga naŋ a ma wasa araŋ se jiiri hinza din se.

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.

²² Jiiri ahakkanta araŋ ga duma ka soobay ka barma zeeney ntaaso ŋwa. Hala jiiri yagganta heemaro ga furo, araŋ ga ŋwa barma zeeney gaa.

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

²³ I ma si laabo neera hal abada, zama laabo ya ay wane no. Araŋ mo yawyaŋ no kaŋ yaŋ zumbu ay gaa.

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

²⁴ Araŋ mayray laabo kulu ra mo, araŋ ma yadda i ma laabu fansa.

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.

²⁵ Da ni nya-ize te talka hal a na nga mayray haro jara neera, waato din gaa no a dumi kaŋ dumitara ga maan g'a kaa. Haŋ kaŋ a nya-izo neera din, a m'a fansa*.

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

²⁶ Da bora din sinda boro kulu kaŋ g'a fansa, nga bumbo ye ka te arzaka mo, kaŋ ga naŋ a ga du k'a fansa,

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.

²⁷ kal a ma jiirey lasaabu za alwaato kaŋ i n'a neera. Haŋ kaŋ cindi mo a ma bana bora din kaŋ se i n'a neera din se. Koyo ga ye ka furo nga mayray haro ra.

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.

²⁸ Amma d'a mana hin ka du a nga boŋ se, kala haya kaŋ a neera ma goro bora kaŋ n'a day din kambe ra kala Yubili jiiro waate. Yubili jiiro ra mo a ga fatta. Koyo ga ye nga mayra do.

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.

²⁹ Da boro fo na fu neera kwaara birni cinarikoy ra, a ga hin k'a fansa hala jiiri fo ga kubay a neerayaŋo banda. Hala jiiri fo ga kubay a gonda fondo a m'a fansa.

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.

³⁰ Amma d'i man'a fansa hala jiiri fo ga kubay, kala fuwo kaŋ go birno ra, i m'a tabbatandi duumi bora kaŋ n'a day din se, hala nga zamaney me. A si fatta Yubili waate.

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.

³¹ Amma kawyey ra fuwey, naŋ kaŋ sinda birni cinari kwaara windanta, i g'i lasaabu farey banda laabo ra, i gonda fansa. I ga fatta mo Yubili waate.

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

³² Kulu nda yaadin, Lawitey kwaarey ciine ra, da fuwey kaŋ yaŋ go i mayra kwaarey ra, Lawitey gonda fondo i m'i fansa waati kulu.

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.

³³ Amma da Lawi boro fo mana nga fuwo fansa, kulu fuwo kaŋ i neera kwaara ra kaŋ ga ti mayray haro ga fatta Yubili waate. Zama fuwey kaŋ yaŋ go Lawitey kwaarey ra, ngey no ga ti i mayray haro Israyla izey game ra.

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

³⁴ Amma i kwaarey kurey nangey si neera, zama ngey wo i wane no duumi.

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.

³⁵ Da ni nya-izo kaŋ ga maan nin te talka hal a gaze, ni m'a kambu za. A ma goro ni do sanda yaw wala boro kaŋ kaa ka zumbu ni do.

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

³⁶ Ma si nooru nda hari wala tontoni daŋ a gaa. Amma ni ma humburu ni Irikoyo ka naŋ ni nya-izo ma goro ni do.

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

³⁷ Ni ma si ni nooro garaw a se da hari; hala hõ, ni ma si ŋwaari no a se ka riiba ta.

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.

³⁸ Ay ya Rabbi no, araŋ Irikoyo, kaŋ n'araŋ fattandi araŋ ma fun Misira laabo ra, ay m'araŋ no Kanaana laabo; ay ma ciya araŋ Irikoyo.

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

³⁹ Da ni nya-ize kaŋ ga ti ni gorokasin te talka hal a na nga boŋ neera ni se, kulu ni ma s'a daŋ tamtaray danga bannya.

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

⁴⁰ A ga goro ni do danga goy-ize, danga yaw kaŋ zumbu. A ga may ni se kala Yubili jiiro.

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.

⁴¹ Gaa no a ga fun ni do, nga nda nga izey a banda. A ga ye nga bumbo fu borey do. A ga ye nga kaayey mayray haro ra.

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

⁴² Zama ay tamyaŋ no, ngey kaŋ yaŋ ay fattandi i ma fun Misira laabo ra. I ma si i neera danga bannyayaŋ.

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

⁴³ Ni ma s'a may da laala, amma ni ma humburu ni Irikoyo.

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.

⁴⁴ Ni bannyey da ni koŋŋey kaŋ yaŋ ni ga du ciine ra binde, kal araŋ m'i day dumey kaŋ yaŋ go araŋ windanta gaa, bannyayaŋ nda koŋŋayaŋ.

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.

⁴⁵ Woodin banda, yawey kaŋ kaa ka goro araŋ game ra, i izey d'i dumi kaŋ i ga hay araŋ laabo ra gaa no araŋ ga day. Ngey no ga ciya araŋ waney.

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.

⁴⁶ Araŋ m'i ciya tubu hari araŋ izey se araŋ banda. I m'i gaay mayray hari. Araŋ m'araŋ tamey suuban i ra hala abada. Amma araŋ nya-ize Israyla izey, araŋ ma si care may da laala.

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;

⁴⁷ Da yaw fo wala boro kaŋ goro araŋ do te arzaka, a jarga mo ni nya-ize fo te talka, ka nga boŋ neera yawo kaŋ goro din se, wala a ma nga boŋ neera yawo dumi fo se,

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

⁴⁸ a neerayaŋo banda a gonda fansayaŋ. A nya-ize fo m'a fansa,

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.

⁴⁹ wala a baaba fo, wala a baaba fo ize, wala boro kulu kaŋ ga ti a dumi kaŋ ga maan a, i ga hin k'a fansa. Wala mo, da bora din te arzaka a ma nga boŋ fansa.

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.

⁵⁰ A ma lasaabuyaŋ te da bora kaŋ na nga day, za jiiro kaŋ a na nga boŋ neera a se din hala Yubili jiiro. A daymi nooro ga ciya jiirey baa yaŋ boŋ kaŋ a goro a do, mate kaŋ i ga goy-ize alwaati bana.

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.

⁵¹ D'a cindi jiiri boobo, kal i lasaabo boŋ a ma nga fansa nooro bana ka nooro kaŋ i n'a day d'a ye koyo se.

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.

⁵² D'a cindi jiiri kayna fooyaŋ hala Yubili jiiro ga to mo, kal a ma lasaabo te d'a. A jiirey boŋ no i ga fansa nooro yeti a se.

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

⁵³ Mate kaŋ i goy-izey go, kaŋ i zinga nd'a jiiri fo goy, yaadin no a ga goro koyo do. A ma s'a may da laala ni jine.

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

⁵⁴ Amma d'i man'a fansa jiirey din kulu ra, a ga fatta Yubili jiiro ra, nga nda nga izey a banda.

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.

⁵⁵ Zama Israyla izey ga te ay se tamyaŋ. Ay tamyaŋ no kaŋ yaŋ ay fattandi i ma fun Misira laabo ra. Ay ya Rabbi no, araŋ Irikoyo.»
