Leviticus 25

NEW JERUSALEM	LXX
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai and said:	1 και ελαλησεν κυριος προς μωυσην εν τω ορει σινα λεγων
2 'Speak to the Israelites and say to them: "When you enter the country which I am giving you, the landmust keep a Sabbath's rest for Yahweh.	2 λαλησον τοις υιοις ισραηλ και ερεις προς αυτους εαν εισελθητε εις την γην ην εγω διδωμι υμιν και αναπαυσεται η γη ην εγω διδωμι υμιν σαββατα τω κυριω
3 For six years you wil sow your field, for six years you wil prune your vineyard and gather its produce.	3 εξ ετη σπερεις τον αγρον σου και εξ ετη τεμεις την αμπελον σου και συναξεις τον καρπον αυτης
4 But in the seventh year the land wil have a sabbatical rest, a Sabbath for Yahweh. You wil neithersow your field, nor prune your vineyard,	4 τω δε ετει τω εβδομω σαββατα αναπαυσις εσται τη γη σαββατα τω κυριω τον αγρον σου ου σπερεις και την αμπελον σου ου τεμεις
5 nor reap any grain which has grown of its own accord, nor gather the grapes from your untrimmedvine. It wil be a year of rest for the land.	5 και τα αυτοματα αναβαινοντα του αγρου σου ουκ εκθερισεις και την σταφυλην του αγιασματος σου ουκ εκτρυγησεις ενιαυτος αναπαυσεως εσται τη γη
6 But what the land produces in its Sabbath wil serve to feed you, your slave, male or female, youremployee and your guest residing with you;	6 και εσται τα σαββατα της γης βρωματα σοι και τω παιδι σου και τη παιδισκη σου και τω μισθωτω σου και τω παροικω τω προσκειμενω προς σε
7 for your cattle too, and the wild animals of your country, whatever it produces wil serve as food.	7 και τοις κτηνεσιν σου και τοις θηριοις τοις εν τη γη σου εσται παν το γενημα αυτου εις βρωσιν
8 "You wil count seven weeks of years -- seven times seven years, that is to say a period of sevenweeks of years, forty-nine years.	8 και εξαριθμησεις σεαυτω επτα αναπαυσεις ετων επτα ετη επτακις και εσονται σοι επτα εβδομαδες ετων εννεα και τεσσαρακοντα ετη
9 And on the tenth day of the seventh month you wil sound the trumpet; on the Day of Expiation you wilsound the trumpet throughout the land.	9 και διαγγελειτε σαλπιγγος φωνη εν παση τη γη υμων τω μηνι τω εβδομω τη δεκατη του μηνος τη ημερα του ιλασμου διαγγελειτε σαλπιγγι εν παση τη γη υμων
10 You wil declare this fiftieth year to be sacred and proclaim the liberation of al the country'sinhabitants. You will keep this as a jubilee: each of you wil return to his ancestral property, each to his own clan.	10 και αγιασετε το ετος το πεντηκοστον ενιαυτον και διαβοησετε αφεσιν επι της γης πασιν τοις κατοικουσιν αυτην ενιαυτος αφεσεως σημασια αυτη εσται υμιν και απελευσεται εις εκαστος εις την κτησιν αυτου και εκαστος εις την πατριδα αυτου απελευσεσθε
11 This fiftieth year wil be a jubilee year for you; in it you wil not sow, you wil not harvest the grain thathas come up on its own or in it gather grapes from your untrimmed vine.	11 αφεσεως σημασια αυτη το ετος το πεντηκοστον ενιαυτος εσται υμιν ου σπερειτε ουδε αμησετε τα αυτοματα αναβαινοντα αυτης και ου τρυγησετε τα ηγιασμενα αυτης
12 The jubilee wil be a holy thing for you; during it you wil eat whatever the fields produce.	12 οτι αφεσεως σημασια εστιν αγιον εσται υμιν απο των πεδιων φαγεσθε τα γενηματα αυτης
13 "In this year of jubilee, each of you wil return to his ancestral property.	13 εν τω ετει της αφεσεως σημασια αυτης επανελευσεται εκαστος εις την κτησιν αυτου
14 If you buy land from, or sell land to, your fel ow-countryman, neither of you may exploit the other.	14 εαν δε αποδω πρασιν τω πλησιον σου εαν και κτηση παρα του πλησιον σου μη θλιβετω ανθρωπος τον πλησιον
15 In buying from your fel ow-countryman, you will take account of the number of years since the jubilee;the sale-price he fixes for you will depend on the number of productive years still to run.	15 κατα αριθμον ετων μετα την σημασιαν κτηση παρα του πλησιον κατα αριθμον ενιαυτων γενηματων αποδωσεται σοι
16 The greater the number of years, the higher the price you wil ask for it; the fewer the number ofyears, the greater the reduction; for what he is sel ing you is a certain number of harvests.	16 καθοτι αν πλειον των ετων πληθυνη την εγκτησιν αυτου και καθοτι αν ελαττον των ετων ελαττονωση την κτησιν αυτου οτι αριθμον γενηματων αυτου ουτως αποδωσεται σοι
17 So you wil not exploit one another, but fear your God, for I am Yahweh your God.	17 μη θλιβετω ανθρωπος τον πλησιον και φοβηθηση κυριον τον θεον σου εγω ειμι κυριος ο θεος υμων
18 "Hence, you wil put my laws and customs into practice; you will keep them and put them intopractice, and you wil live securely in the country.	18 και ποιησετε παντα τα δικαιωματα μου και πασας τας κρισεις μου και φυλαξασθε και ποιησετε αυτα και κατοικησετε επι της γης πεποιθοτες
19 The land wil give its fruit, and you will eat your fill and live in security.	19 και δωσει η γη τα εκφορια αυτης και φαγεσθε εις πλησμονην και κατοικησετε πεποιθοτες επ' αυτης
20 "In case you should ask: What shal we eat in this seventh year if we do not sow or harvest ourproduce?	20 εαν δε λεγητε τι φαγομεθα εν τω ετει τω εβδομω τουτω εαν μη σπειρωμεν μηδε συναγαγωμεν τα γενηματα ημων
21 I shall order my blessing to be on you in the sixth year, which wil yield you enough produce for threeyears.	21 και αποστελω την ευλογιαν μου υμιν εν τω ετει τω εκτω και ποιησει τα γενηματα αυτης εις τα τρια ετη
22 You wil have the old produce to eat while you are sowing in the eighth year, and even in the ninthyear, you wil be eating the old produce, while waiting for the harvest of that year.	22 και σπερειτε το ετος το ογδοον και φαγεσθε απο των γενηματων παλαια εως του ετους του ενατου εως αν ελθη το γενημα αυτης φαγεσθε παλαια παλαιων
23 "Land wil not be sold absolutely, for the land belongs to me, and you are only strangers and guestsof mine.	23 και η γη ου πραθησεται εις βεβαιωσιν εμη γαρ εστιν η γη διοτι προσηλυτοι και παροικοι υμεις εστε εναντιον μου
24 You wil al ow a right of redemption over any ancestral property.	24 και κατα πασαν γην κατασχεσεως υμων λυτρα δωσετε της γης
25 If your brother becomes impoverished and sel s off part of his ancestral property, his nearest malerelative wil come and exercise his family rights over what his brother has sold.	25 εαν δε πενηται ο αδελφος σου ο μετα σου και αποδωται απο της κατασχεσεως αυτου και ελθη ο αγχιστευων εγγιζων εγγιστα αυτου και λυτρωσεται την πρασιν του αδελφου αυτου
26 The man who has no one to exercise this right may, once he has found the means to effect theredemption,	26 εαν δε μη η τινι ο αγχιστευων και ευπορηθη τη χειρι και ευρεθη αυτω το ικανον λυτρα αυτου
27 calculate the number of years that the alienation would have lasted, repay to the purchaser the sumdue for the time stil to run, and so recover his ancestral property.	27 και συλλογιειται τα ετη της πρασεως αυτου και αποδωσει ο υπερεχει τω ανθρωπω ω απεδοτο εαυτον αυτω και απελευσεται εις την κατασχεσιν αυτου
28 If he cannot find the sum in compensation, the property sold will remain in the possession of thepurchaser until the jubilee year. In the jubilee year, the latter wil vacate it and return to his own ancestralproperty.	28 εαν δε μη ευπορηθη η χειρ αυτου το ικανον ωστε αποδουναι αυτω και εσται η πρασις τω κτησαμενω αυτα εως του εκτου ετους της αφεσεως και εξελευσεται τη αφεσει και απελευσεται εις την κατασχεσιν αυτου
29 "If anyone sel s a dwel ing house inside a wal ed town, he wil have the right of redemption until theexpiry of the year fol owing the sale. His right of redemption is limited to the year;	29 εαν δε τις αποδωται οικιαν οικητην εν πολει τετειχισμενη και εσται η λυτρωσις αυτης εως πληρωθη ενιαυτος ημερων εσται η λυτρωσις αυτης
30 and if the redemption has not been effected by the end of the year, the house in the wal ed town wilbecome the property of the purchaser and his descendants in perpetuity; he need not vacate it at the jubilee.	30 εαν δε μη λυτρωθη εως αν πληρωθη αυτης ενιαυτος ολος κυρωθησεται η οικια η ουσα εν πολει τη εχουση τειχος βεβαιως τω κτησαμενω αυτην εις τας γενεας αυτου και ουκ εξελευσεται εν τη αφεσει
31 But houses in villages not enclosed by wal s wil be considered as situated in the open country; theycarry the right of redemption, and the purchaser wil vacate them at the jubilee.	31 αι δε οικιαι αι εν επαυλεσιν αις ουκ εστιν εν αυταις τειχος κυκλω προς τον αγρον της γης λογισθητωσαν λυτρωται δια παντος εσονται και εν τη αφεσει εξελευσονται
32 "As regards the towns of the Levites, town houses forming part of their ancestral property wil carry aperpetual right of redemption in their favour.	32 και αι πολεις των λευιτων οικιαι των πολεων αυτων κατασχεσεως λυτρωται δια παντος εσονται τοις λευιταις
33 If a Levite is the one to be affected by the right of redemption, at the jubilee he will vacate thepurchased property and return to his own home, to the town in which he has a title to property. The houses in theLevites' towns represent their ancestral property in Israel,	33 και ος αν λυτρωσαμενος παρα των λευιτων και εξελευσεται η διαπρασις αυτων οικιων πολεως κατασχεσεως αυτων εν τη αφεσει οτι οικιαι των πολεων των λευιτων κατασχεσις αυτων εν μεσω υιων ισραηλ
34 and the arable land depending on these towns cannot be sold, being their ancestral property for ever.	34 και οι αγροι οι αφωρισμενοι ταις πολεσιν αυτων ου πραθησονται οτι κατασχεσις αιωνια τουτο αυτων εστιν
35 "If your brother becomes impoverished and cannot support himself in the community, you wil assisthim as you would a stranger or guest, so that he can go on living with you.	35 εαν δε πενηται ο αδελφος σου και αδυνατηση ταις χερσιν παρα σοι αντιλημψη αυτου ως προσηλυτου και παροικου και ζησεται ο αδελφος σου μετα σου
36 Do not charge him interest on a loan, but fear your God, and let your brother live with you.	36 ου λημψη παρ' αυτου τοκον ουδε επι πληθει και φοβηθηση τον θεον σου εγω κυριος και ζησεται ο αδελφος σου μετα σου
37 You wil not lend him money on interest or give him food to make a profit out of it.	37 το αργυριον σου ου δωσεις αυτω επι τοκω και επι πλεονασμον ου δωσεις αυτω τα βρωματα σου
38 I am Yahweh your God who brought you out of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan and be yourGod.	38 εγω κυριος ο θεος υμων ο εξαγαγων υμας εκ γης αιγυπτου δουναι υμιν την γην χανααν ωστε ειναι υμων θεος
39 "If your brother becomes impoverished while with you and sells himself to you, you will not make himdo the work of a slave;	39 εαν δε ταπεινωθη ο αδελφος σου παρα σοι και πραθη σοι ου δουλευσει σοι δουλειαν οικετου
40 you wil treat him like an employee or guest, and he wil work for you until the jubilee year.	40 ως μισθωτος η παροικος εσται σοι εως του ετους της αφεσεως εργαται παρα σοι
41 He wil then leave you, both he and his children, and return to his clan and regain possession of hisancestral property.	41 και εξελευσεται τη αφεσει και τα τεκνα αυτου μετ' αυτου και απελευσεται εις την γενεαν αυτου εις την κατασχεσιν την πατρικην αποδραμειται
42 For they are my servants whom I have brought out of Egypt, and they may not be bought and sold asslaves.	42 διοτι οικεται μου εισιν ουτοι ους εξηγαγον εκ γης αιγυπτου ου πραθησεται εν πρασει οικετου
43 You wil not oppress your brother-Israelites harshly but wil fear your God.	43 ου κατατενεις αυτον εν τω μοχθω και φοβηθηση κυριον τον θεον σου
44 "The male and female slaves you have wil come from the nations round you; from these you maypurchase male and female slaves.	44 και παις και παιδισκη οσοι αν γενωνται σοι απο των εθνων οσοι κυκλω σου εισιν απ' αυτων κτησεσθε δουλον και δουλην
45 As slaves, you may also purchase the children of aliens resident among you, and also members oftheir families living with you who have been born on your soil; and they will become your property,	45 και απο των υιων των παροικων των οντων εν υμιν απο τουτων κτησεσθε και απο των συγγενων αυτων οσοι αν γενωνται εν τη γη υμων εστωσαν υμιν εις κατασχεσιν
46 and you may leave them as a legacy to your sons after you as their perpetual possession. These youmay have for slaves; but you wil not oppress your brother-Israelites.	46 και καταμεριειτε αυτους τοις τεκνοις υμων μεθ' υμας και εσονται υμιν κατοχιμοι εις τον αιωνα των αδελφων υμων των υιων ισραηλ εκαστος τον αδελφον αυτου ου κατατενει αυτον εν τοις μοχθοις
47 "If a stranger or guest living with you gets rich and your brother, in the course of dealings with him,becomes impoverished and sel s himself to this stranger or guest, or to the descendant of a stranger's family,	47 εαν δε ευρη η χειρ του προσηλυτου η του παροικου του παρα σοι και απορηθεις ο αδελφος σου πραθη τω προσηλυτω η τω παροικω τω παρα σοι εκ γενετης προσηλυτω
48 he wil enjoy the right of redemption after being sold, and one of his brothers may redeem him.	48 μετα το πραθηναι αυτω λυτρωσις εσται αυτω εις των αδελφων αυτου λυτρωσεται αυτον
49 His paternal uncle, his uncle's son, or a member of his own family may redeem him; if he has themeans, he may redeem himself.	49 αδελφος πατρος αυτου η υιος αδελφου πατρος λυτρωσεται αυτον η απο των οικειων των σαρκων αυτου εκ της φυλης αυτου λυτρωσεται αυτον εαν δε ευπορηθεις ταις χερσιν λυτρωσηται εαυτον
50 By agreement with his purchaser, he wil count the number of years between the year of sale and thejubilee year; his sale-price will be proportionate to the number of years, his time being valued as that of anemployee.	50 και συλλογιειται προς τον κεκτημενον αυτον απο του ετους ου απεδοτο εαυτον αυτω εως του ενιαυτου της αφεσεως και εσται το αργυριον της πρασεως αυτου ως μισθιου ετος εξ ετους εσται μετ' αυτου
51 If there are stil many years to run, in proportion to their number he wil refund part of his sale-price aspayment for his redemption.	51 εαν δε τινι πλειον των ετων η προς ταυτα αποδωσει τα λυτρα αυτου απο του αργυριου της πρασεως αυτου
52 And if there are only a few years stil to run before the jubilee year, he wil calculate with him whatshould be refunded for his redemption, in proportion to their number,	52 εαν δε ολιγον καταλειφθη απο των ετων εις τον ενιαυτον της αφεσεως και συλλογιειται αυτω κατα τα ετη αυτου και αποδωσει τα λυτρα αυτου
53 as though he were hired by the year. You wil see to it that he is not harshly oppressed.	53 ως μισθωτος ενιαυτον εξ ενιαυτου εσται μετ' αυτου ου κατατενεις αυτον εν τω μοχθω ενωπιον σου
54 "If he has not been redeemed in any of these ways, he wil go free in the jubilee year, both he and hischildren;	54 εαν δε μη λυτρωται κατα ταυτα εξελευσεται εν τω ετει της αφεσεως αυτος και τα παιδια αυτου μετ' αυτου
55 for the Israelites are my servants; they are my servants whom I brought out of Egypt. I am Yahwehyour God." '	55 οτι εμοι οι υιοι ισραηλ οικεται παιδες μου ουτοι εισιν ους εξηγαγον εκ γης αιγυπτου εγω κυριος ο θεος υμων
