申命記 15
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1「每逢七年末一年，你要施行豁免。
1At the end of every seven years you must cancel debts.
2豁免的定例乃是這樣：凡債主要把所借給鄰舍的豁免了；不可向鄰舍和弟兄追討，因為耶和華的豁免 年 已經宣告了。
2This is the manner of remission: Every creditor shall cancel what he has loaned to his neighbor. He is not to collect anything from his neighbor or brother, because the LORD’s time of release has been proclaimed.
3若借給外邦人，你可以向他追討；但借給你弟兄，無論是甚麼，你要鬆手豁免了。
3You may collect something from a foreigner, but you must forgive whatever your brother owes you.
4你若留意聽從耶和華－你上帝的話，謹守遵行我今日所吩咐你這一切的命令，就必在你們中間沒有窮人了（在耶和華－你上帝所賜你為業的地上，耶和華必大大賜福與你。）
4There will be no poor among you, however, because the LORD will surely bless you in the land that the LORD your God is giving you to possess as an inheritance,
no verse 5 in this text
5if only you obey the LORD your God and are careful to follow all these commandments I am giving you today.
6因為耶和華－你的上帝必照他所應許你的賜福與你。你必借給許多國民，卻不致向 他們 借貸；你必管轄許多國民，他們卻不能管轄你。
6When the LORD your God blesses you as He has promised, you will lend to many nations but borrow from none; you will rule over many nations but be ruled by none.
7「在耶和華－你上帝所賜你的地上，無論哪一座城裏，你弟兄中若有一個窮人，你不可忍着心、揝着手不幫補你窮乏的弟兄。
7If there is a poor man among your brothers within any of the gates in the land that the LORD your God is giving you, then you are not to harden your heart or shut your hand from your poor brother.
8總要向他鬆開手，照他所缺乏的借給他，補他的不足。
8Instead, you are to open your hand to him and freely loan him whatever he needs.
9你要謹慎，不可心裏起惡念，說：『第七年的豁免年快到了』，你便惡眼看你窮乏的弟兄，甚麼都不給他，以致他因你求告耶和華，罪便歸於你了。
9Be careful not to harbor this wicked thought in your heart: “The seventh year, the year of release, is near,” so that you look upon your poor brother begrudgingly and give him nothing. He will cry out to the LORD against you, and you will be guilty of sin.
10你總要給他，給他的時候心裏不可愁煩；因耶和華－你的上帝必在你這一切所行的，並你手裏所辦的事上，賜福與你。
10Give generously to him, and do not let your heart be grieved when you do so. And because of this the LORD your God will bless you in all your work and in everything to which you put your hand.
11原來那地上的窮人永不斷絕；所以我吩咐你說：『總要向你地上困苦窮乏的弟兄鬆開手。』」
11For there will never cease to be poor in the land; that is why I am commanding you to open wide your hand to your brother and to the poor and needy in your land.
12「你弟兄中，若有一個 希伯來 男人或 希伯來 女人被賣給你，服事你六年，到第七年就要任他自由出去。
12If a fellow Hebrew, a man or a woman, is sold to you and serves you six years, then in the seventh year you must set him free.
13你任他自由的時候，不可使他空手而去，
13And when you release him, do not send him away empty-handed.
14要從你羊群、禾場、酒醡之中多多地給他；耶和華－你的上帝怎樣賜福與你，你也要照樣給他。
14You are to furnish him liberally from your flock, your threshing floor, and your winepress. You shall give to him as the LORD your God has blessed you.
15要記念你在 埃及 地作過奴僕，耶和華－你的上帝將你救贖；因此，我今日吩咐你這件事。
15Remember that you were slaves in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God redeemed you; that is why I am giving you this command today.
16他若對你說：『我不願意離開你』，是因他愛你和你的家，且因在你那裏很好，
16But if your servant says to you, ‘I do not want to leave you,’ because he loves you and your household and is well off with you,
17你就要拿錐子將他的耳朵在門上刺透，他便永為你的奴僕了。你待婢女也要這樣。
17then take an awl and pierce it through his ear into the door, and he will become your servant for life. And treat your maidservant the same way.
18你任他自由的時候，不可以為難事，因他服事你六年，較比雇工的工價多加一倍了。耶和華－你的上帝就必在你所做的一切事上賜福與你。」
18Do not regard it as a hardship to set your servant free, because his six years of service were worth twice the wages of a hired hand. And the LORD your God will bless you in all you do.
19「你牛群羊群中頭生的，凡是公的，都要分別為聖，歸耶和華－你的上帝。牛群中頭生的，不可用牠耕地；羊群中頭生的，不可剪毛。
19You must set apart to the LORD your God every firstborn male produced by your herds and flocks. You are not to put the firstborn of your oxen to work, nor are you to shear the firstborn of your flock.
20這頭生的，你和你的家屬，每年要在耶和華所選擇的地方，在耶和華－你上帝面前吃。
20Each year you and your household are to eat it before the LORD your God in the place the LORD will choose.
21這頭生的若有甚麼殘疾， 就如 瘸腿的、瞎眼的，無論有甚麼惡殘疾，都不可獻給耶和華－你的上帝；
21But if an animal has a defect, is lame or blind, or has any serious flaw, you must not sacrifice it to the LORD your God.
22可以在你城裏吃；潔淨人與不潔淨人都 可以吃 ，就如吃羚羊與鹿一般。
22Eat it within your gates; both the ceremonially unclean and clean may eat it as they would a gazelle or a deer.
23只是不可吃牠的血；要倒在地上，如同倒水一樣。」
23But you must not eat the blood; pour it on the ground like water.
