2 “Panga Aizraeli kuti: ‘Mungapita mu dziko inafuna kukupasani+ ine, munadzakoya Sabudu ya caka ca Yahova+ mbamukhonda kubzwala mbeu mu dziko.
3 Mu pyaka pitanthatu musafunika kubzwala minda yanu, kusadzula nthawi za miti yanu ya mauva, mbamubvuna mbeu+ zanu.
4 Mbwenye pa caka cacinomwe dziko isafunika kupuma, cinadzakhala caka ca Sabudu kuna Yahova. Imwe nee musafunika kubzwala mbeu mʼminda yanu, nee kusadzula nthawi za miti yanu ya mauva.
5 Lekani kubvuna mbeu zidamera zokha pakati pa mbeu zidagwa pikhabvuna imwe caka cidamala, nee kutcoda mauva adabala mʼmiti ya mauva idakhonda imwe kusadzula. Mu caka ceneci dziko isafunika kupuma mʼmabasa onsene.
6 Mbwenye munakwanisa kudya pyakudya pinafuna kubala mu dziko ineyi pa caka ca Sabudu. Iwe, bitcu wako wamamuna na wankazi, nyabasa wako na anthu akudza anakhala pakati panu munakwanisa kudya misapo ineyi.
7 Pifuyo na pinyama pya ntsanga piri mu dziko yanu pinakwanisambo kudya misapo ineyi. Pinthu pyonsene pinafuna kubuluka mu dziko yanu munakwanisa kupidya.
8 “‘Munadzalengesa masabudu manomwe a pyaka, munadzalengesa kanomwe pyaka pinomwe, ntsiku zonsene za masabudu manomwe a pyaka zinadzakhala pyaka 49.
9 Buluka penepo, pa ntsiku yacikhumi ya mwezi wacinomwe munadzaliza tuluka mwakugaluza. Pa Ntsiku Yakuceneswa Madawo*+ musafunika kuliza tuluka mbibveka mu dziko yanu yonsene.
10 Caka 50 ndi caka cakucena pamaso pa Mulungu, pontho munadzadziwisa ufulu mu dziko yanu, kuna anthu+ onsene anakhala mu dziko yanu. Ceneci cinadzakhala Caka Caufulu kuna imwe, mʼbodzi na mʼbodzi wa imwe anadzabwerera ku mbuto idatambira iye ninga unthaka wace, mʼbodzi na mʼbodzi asafunika abwerere kuna abale ace.+
11 Caka 50 cinadzakhala Caka Caufulu kuna imwe. Nee munadzabzwala, nee kubvuna mbeu zidamera zokha pakati pa mbeu zidagwa pikhabvuna imwe, pontho nee munadzabulusa mauva adabala mʼmiti ya mauva+ idakhonda imwe kusadzula.
12 Thangwi ceneci ndi Caka Caufulu. Cisafunika cikhale caka cakucena kuna imwe. Basi ene munadya pinafuna kubuluka pyokha+ mu dziko yanu.
13 “‘Mu Caka ceneci Caufulu, mʼbodzi na mʼbodzi asafunika abwerere ku mbuto idatambira iye ninga unthaka+ wace.
14 Ungagulisira ndzako cinthu peno ungagula cinthu kuna iye, lekani kupondererana unango na ndzace.+
15 Cinthu cinafuna kugula iwe kuna ndzako cisafunika cibverane na pyaka pidapita pakumala kwa Caka Caufulu; pinafuna kukugulisira iye pisafunika pibverane na pyaka pidasala toera kupitiriza kubvuna mbeu.+
16 Khala pasala pyaka pizinji anakwanisa kuthimizira ntengo wakugula nawo, mbwenye khala nee pyasala pyaka pizinji asafunika kubweza ntengo, thangwi iye ali kukugulisira pyakudya pinafuna kubvuna iwe mu pyaka pidasala.
17 Nee mʼbodzi pakati panu asafunika kuponderera ndzace,+ pontho musafunika kugopa Mulungu+ wanu, thangwi ine ndine Yahova Mulungu+ wanu.
18 Mungabvera mitemo yanga mbamukoya matongero anga munadzakhala akutsidzikizika mu dziko+ ineyi.
19 Dziko ineyi inadzabala misapo+ mizinji, imwe munadzadya mbamukhuta, pontho munadzakhala akutsidzikizika+ mwenemu.
20 “‘Panango munabvundzika kuti: “Tingakhonda kubzwala mbeu zathu mbatikhonda kubvuna,+ tinadzadyanji pa caka cacinomwe?”
21 Dziwani kuti ine ndinadzakupasani nkhombo pa caka cacitanthatu, mbamubvuna pinthu pizinji mu dziko yanu pyakuti pinakwana toera kupidya mu pyaka pitatu.+
22 Pa caka cacisere imwe munabzwala mbeu zanu, mbwenye munadya pidabvuna imwe mu pyaka pyanduli mpaka mu caka cacipfemba. Munadya pidabvuna imwe kale mpaka kutokota kwa mbeu zipswa.
23 “‘Munda nee usafunika kugulisirwa munthu mbukhala wace kwenda na kwenda,+ thangwi dziko ndi yanga.+ Pontho thangwi kwa ine,+ imwe ndimwe alendo na anthu akudza.
24 Mu dziko yanu yonsene, ule anagulisa mbuto anadzakhala na ufulu wakuiombola.
25 “‘Mʼbale wako angatcerenga, mbagulisa khundu ya mbuto ya unthaka wace, nyakuombola wakuti ndi mʼbale wace, asafunika amʼphedze mbagula pontho cinthu cidagulisa+ mʼbale wace.
26 Khala munthu nkhabe nyakuombola, angadzakhala na kobiri yakukwana toera kuombola nayo mbuto yace,
27 iye asafunika alengese ntengo wa pyaka pidapita kubulukira pa caka cidagulisa iye mbuto ineyi, mbapereka kobiri ya pyaka pidasala kuna ule adagulisira iye. Natenepa iye anakwanisa kubwerera ku mbuto+ yace.
28 “‘Mbwenye angasowa kobiri yakuombola nayo, mbuto idagulisa iye inapitiriza na ule adaigula mpaka pa Caka+ Caufulu; iye anadzaibwezerwa pa Caka Caufulu, natenepa iye anadzabwerera ku mbuto+ yace.
29 “‘Munthu angagulisa nyumba yace mu nzinda wakuti uli na mpanda, kubulukira pa ntsiku idagulisa iye nyumba ineyi, anapitiriza kukhala na ufulu nkati mwa caka cibodzi toera kuiombola; iye anamala caka cibodzi mbali na ufulu wakuiombola.+
30 Mbwenye ingakhonda kuombolwa nkati mwa caka cibodzi, nyumba yakuti iri mu nzinda udazungulirwa na mpanda inadzakhala ya ule adaigula, mbikhala yace na ya adzukulu ace kwenda na kwenda. Pa Caka Caufulu, nee isafunika kubwezwa kuna mwanaciro.
31 Mbwenye nyumba yakuti iri mu nzinda wakusowa mpanda isafunika kuoniwa ninga munda wa mu dziko yanu. Ufulu wakuombola nyumba ineyi usafunika kupitiriza, pontho pa Caka Caufulu isafunika kubwezwa kuna mwanaciro.
32 “‘Nyumba za Alevi zinagumanika mʼmizinda+ yawo, ndzidzi onsene Alevi anadzakhala na ufulu wakuombola nyumba zenezi.
33 Mulevi angakhonda kuombola nyumba idagulisa iye, nyumba idagulisa iye mu nzinda wawo inadzabwezwa pa Caka Caufulu,+ thangwi nyumba ziri mʼmizinda ya Alevi ndi unthaka wawo pakati pa Aizraeli.+
34 Kusiyapo pyenepi, iwo nee asafunika kugulisa mbuto+ inadyesa iwo pifuyo, thangwi mbuto zenezi ndi zawo kwenda na kwenda.
35 “‘Khala mʼbale wanu anakhala pakati panu akutcerenga mbacimwana kutsalakana umaso wace, musafunika kumʼphedza+ ninga munaphedza imwe mulendo anakhala pakati panu peno munthu wakudza,+ toera apitirize kukhala na umaso pakati panu.
36 Lekani kumʼphemba juru peno kuwina pizinji kuna iye.+ Musafunika kugopa Mulungu+ wanu. Mʼbale wanu anapitiriza kukhala na umaso pakati panu.

38 Ine ndine Yahova Mulungu wanu, ule adakubulusani mu dziko ya Ejitu+ toera kukupasani dziko ya Kanani, toera ndipangize kuti ndine Mulungu+ wanu.
39 “‘Khala mʼbale wako anakhala pakati panu akutcerenga mbagulisika kuna iwe,+ nee usafunika kunkakamiza toera kuphata basa+ ninga bitcu.
40 Iye asafunika atsalakanwe ninga nyabasa+ peno munthu wakudza. Asafunika akuphatire basa mpaka pa Caka Caufulu.
41 Angamala, iye asafunika abuluke pabodzi na anace mbabwerera kuna abale ace. Iye asafunika abwerere ku mbuto idatambira ambuyace+ ninga unthaka wawo.
42 Thangwi iwo ndi mabitcu anga adabulusa ine mu dziko ya Ejitu.+ Nee asafunika kuguliswa ninga munaguliswa bitcu.
43 Leka kumbvuya;*+ usafunika kugopa Mulungu+ wako.
44 Bitcu wako wamamuna peno wankazi usafunika kunsankhula pakati pa anthu a madzindza ali nʼkhundu mwanu. Pakati pa anthu anewa unakwanisa kugula bitcu wamamuna peno wankazi.
45 Kusiyapo pyenepi, imwe munakwanisa kugula mabitcu pakati pa ana a anthu akudza anakhala pakati panu,+ munakwanisa kuagula kuna iwo na anawo adabalwa mu dziko yanu, natenepa iwo anadzakhala anu.
46 Munakwanisa kuapereka kuna ananu ninga unthaka wawo, toera akhale awo kwenda na kwenda. Munakwanisa kuaphatisira ninga anyabasa, mbwenye lekani kubvuya*+ abale anu akuti ndi a dzindza ya Izraeli.
47 “‘Mbwenye mulendo peno munthu wakudza anakhala pakati panu angapfuma, mʼbale wako wakuti ndi mʼbodzi wa Aizraeli angakhala wakutcerenga mbagulisika kuna mulendo peno munthu wakudza anakhala pakati panu peno mʼbale wace mulendo anakhala pakati panu,
48 iye anapitiriza kukhala na ufulu wakuombolwa. Mʼbodzi wa abale ace anakwanisa kumuombola,+
49 mʼbale wa pai wace, peno mwana wa mʼbale wa pai wace anakwanisa kumuombola, pontho khala iye ali na mʼbale unango peno munthu wa dzindza yace anakwanisa kumuombola.
“‘Peno, iye angapfuma anakwanisa kuomboleka+ ekhene.

51 Khala pyasala pyaka pizinji, asafunika kupereka kobiri mwakubverana na pyaka pidasala.
52 Mbwenye khala nee pyasala pyaka pizinji toera kufika pa Caka Caufulu, iye asafunika alengese pyaka pidasala, mbapereka kobiri yakuomboleka nayo mwakubverana na pyaka pyenepi.
53 Pyaka pyonsene iye asafunika aphatire basa ule adanʼgula, pontho imwe nee musafunika kutawirisa kuti iye ambvuye.* +
54 Mbwenye angacimwana kuomboleka ekhene munjira ineyi, iye anadzakhala wakusudzuka toera kubuluka pa Caka Caufulu,+ iye pabodzi na anace.
