Deuteronomie 15

1 The seventh year a year of release for the poor. 7 It must be no let of lending or giving. 12 An Hebrew servant, 16 except he will not depart, must in the seventh year go forth free and well furnished. 19 All firstling males of the cattle are to be sanctified unto the LORD.

 15:1 ¶ At the end 7093 x4480 of [euery] seuen 7651 yeeres 8141 thou shalt make 6213 z8799 a release. 8059

 15:2 And this x2088 is the maner 1697 of the release: 8059 Euery x3605 creditour 1167 4874 3027 that x834 lendeth 5383 z8686 ought vnto his neighbour, 7453 shall release 8058 z8800 it: hee shall not x3808 exact 5065 z8799 x853 it of his neighbour, 7453 or of his brother, 251 because x3588 it is called 7121 z8804 the LORDS 3068 release. 8059

 15:3 Of x853 a forreiner 5237 thou mayest exact 5065 z8799 it againe: but that which x834 is x1961 thine with x854 thy brother, 251 thine hand 3027 shall release. 8058 z8686

 15:4 Saue 657 when x3588 there shall bee x1961 no x3808 poore 34 among you: for x3588 the LORD 3068 shal greatly y1288 z8763 blesse 1288 z8762 thee in the land 776 which x834 the LORD 3068 thy God 430 giueth 5414 z8802 thee for an inheritance 5159 to possesse 3423 z8800 it:

 15:5 Onely x7535 if x518 thou carefully y8085 z8800 hearken 8085 z8799 vnto the voice 6963 of the LORD 3068 thy God, 430 to obserue 8104 z8800 to doe 6213 z8800 x853 all x3605 these x2063 commandedements, 4687 which x834 I x595 commaund 6680 z8764 thee this day. 3117

 15:6 For x3588 the LORD 3068 thy God 430 blesseth 1288 z8765 thee, as x834 he promised 1696 z8765 thee, and thou shalt lend 5670 z8689 vnto many 7227 nations, 1471 but thou x859 shalt not x3808 borrow, 5670 z8799 and thou shalt reigne 4910 z8804 ouer many 7227 nations, 1471 but they shall not x3808 reigne 4910 z8799 ouer thee.

 15:7 ¶ If x3588 there be x1961 among you a poore man 34 of one 259 x4480 of thy brethren 251 within any 259 of thy gates, 8179 in thy lande 776 which x834 the LORD 3068 thy God 430 giueth 5414 z8802 thee, thou shalt not x3808 harden 553 z8762 x853 thy heart, 3824 nor x3808 shut 7092 z8799 x853 thine hand 3027 from thy poore 34 brother: 251 x4480

 15:8 But x3588 thou shalt open 6605 z8799 x853 thine hand 3027 wide 6605 z8800 vnto him, and shalt surely y5670 z8687 lend 5670 z8686 him sufficient 1767 for his neede, 4270 in that which x834 he wanteth. 2637 z8799

 15:9 Beware 8104 z8734 that x6435 there bee x1961 not a thought 1697 in x5973 thy wicked 1100 heart, 3824 saying, 559 z8800 The seuenth 7651 yeere, 8141 the yeere 8141 of release 8059 is at hand, 7126 z8804 and thine eye 5869 be euill 7489 z8804 against thy poore 34 brother, 251 and thou giuest 5414 z8799 him nought, x3808 and hee crie 7121 z8804 vnto x413 the LORD 3068 against x5921 thee, and it be x1961 sinne 2399 vnto thee.

 15:10 Thou shalt surely y5414 z8800 giue 5414 z8799 him, and thine heart 3824 shall not x3808 bee grieued y3415 z8799 x7489 when thou giuest 5414 z8800 vnto him: because y1558 that x3588 for x1558 this x2088 thing 1697 the LORD 3068 thy God 430 shall blesse 1288 z8762 thee in all x3605 thy workes, 4639 and in all x3605 that thou puttest 4916 thine hand 3027 vnto.

 15:11 For x3588 the poore 34 shall neuer x3808 cease 2308 z8799 out of 7130 x4480 the land: 776 therefore x5921 x3651 I x595 command 6680 z8764 thee, saying, 559 z8800 Thou shalt open 6605 z8799 x853 thine hand 3027 wide 6605 z8800 vnto thy brother, 251 to thy poore, 6041 and to thy needy 34 in the land. 776

 15:12 ¶ [And] if x3588 thy brother, 251 an Hebrew man, 5680 or x176 an Hebrew woman, 5680 be sold 4376 z8735 vnto thee, and serue 5647 z8804 thee sixe 8337 yeres, 8141 then in the seuenth 7637 yeere 8141 thou shalt let him goe 7971 z8762 free 2670 from x4480 x5973 thee.

 15:13 And when x3588 thou sendest y7971 z8762 him out x7971 free 2670 from x4480 x5973 thee, thou shalt not x3808 let him go away 7971 z8762 emptie: 7387

 15:14 Thou shalt furnish y6059 z8686 him liberally 6059 z8687 out of thy flocke, 6629 x4480 and out of thy floore, 1637 x4480 and out of thy wine presse, 3342 x4480 of that wherewith x834 the LORD 3068 thy God 430 hath blessed 1288 z8765 thee thou shalt giue 5414 z8799 vnto him.

 15:15 And thou shalt remember 2142 z8804 that x3588 thou wast x1961 a bondman 5650 in the land 776 of Egypt, 4714 and the LORD 3068 thy God 430 redeemed 6299 z8799 thee: therefore x5921 x3651 I x595 command 6680 z8764 thee x853 this x2088 thing 1697 to day. 3117

 15:16 And it shall be x1961 if x3588 he say 559 z8799 vnto x413 thee, I will not x3808 goe away 3318 z8799 from x4480 x5973 thee, because x3588 he loueth 157 z8804 thee, and thine house, 1004 because x3588 he is well y2895 z8804 x2896 with x5973 thee:

 15:17 Then thou shalt take 3947 z8804 x853 an aule, 4836 and thrust 5414 z8804 [it] through his eare 241 vnto the doore, 1817 and hee shall be x1961 thy seruant 5650 for euer: 5769 and also x637 vnto thy mayd seruant 519 thou shalt doe 6213 z8799 likewise. x3651

 15:18 It shall not x3808 seeme hard y7185 z8799 vnto thee 5869 x7185 when thou sendest him away 7971 z8763 x853 free 2670 from x4480 x5973 thee: for x3588 hee hath bene worth 7939 a double 4932 hired seruant 7916 to thee, in seruing 5647 z8804 thee sixe 8337 yeeres: 8141 and the LORD 3068 thy God 430 shall blesse 1288 z8765 thee in all x3605 that x834 thou doest. 6213 z8799

 15:19 ¶ All x3605 the firstling 1060 males 2145 that x834 come 3205 z8735 of thy heard, 1241 and of thy flock, 6629 thou shalt sanctifie 6942 z8686 vnto the LORD 3068 thy God: 430 thou shalt doe no x3808 worke 5647 z8799 with the firstling 1060 of thy bullocke, 7794 nor x3808 sheare 1494 z8799 the firstling 1060 of thy sheepe. 6629

 15:20 Thou shalt eate 398 z8799 it before 6440 the LORD 3068 thy God 430 yeere 8141 by yeere, 8141 in the place 4725 which x834 the LORD 3068 shall choose, 977 z8799 thou x859 and thy houshold. 1004

 15:21 And if x3588 there be x1961 any blemish 3971 therein; [as if it be] lame, 6455 or x176 blinde, 5787 [or haue] any x3605 ill 7451 blemish, 3971 thou shalt not x3808 sacrifice 2076 z8799 it vnto the LORD 3068 thy God. 430

 15:22 Thou shalt eate 398 z8799 it within thy gates: 8179 the vncleane 2931 and the cleane 2889 person shall eat it alike, 3162 as the Roe bucke, 6643 and as the Hart. 354

 15:23 Onely x7535 thou shalt not x3808 eate 398 z8799 x853 the blood 1818 thereof: thou shalt powre 8210 z8799 it vpon x5921 the ground 776 as water. 4325
