BeHar Hebrew Parsha - 2nd Aliyah

BeHar (בְּהַר)

Leviticus 25:1 – 26:2

Second Aliyah

25:15
You are buying [only] according to the number of years after the jubilee; [therefore], he is selling it to you for the number of years that [the land] will produce crops [until the next jubilee].

Bemispar shanim achar hayovel tikneh me’et amitecha bemispar shney-tvu’ot yimkor lach.

בְּמִסְפַּר שָׁנִים אַחַר הַיּוֹבֵל, תִּקְנֶה מֵאֵת עֲמִיתֶךָ; בְּמִסְפַּר שְׁנֵי-תְבוּאֹת, יִמְכָּר-לָךְ.

25:16
Since he is selling it to you for the number of crops, you must increase the price if it will be for many years, and decrease it if there are few.

Lefi rov hashanim tarbeh miknato ulefi me’ot hashanim tam’it miknato ki mispar tvu’ot hu mocher lach.

לְפִי רֹב הַשָּׁנִים, תַּרְבֶּה מִקְנָתוֹ, וּלְפִי מְעֹט הַשָּׁנִים, תַּמְעִיט מִקְנָתוֹ: כִּי מִסְפַּר תְּבוּאֹת, הוּא מֹכֵר לָךְ.

25:17
You will then not be cheating one another. You shall fear your God, since it is I who am God your Lord.

Velo tonu ish et-amito veyareta me’Eloheycha ki ani Adonay Eloheychem.

וְלֹא תוֹנוּ אִישׁ אֶת-עֲמִיתוֹ, וְיָרֵאתָ מֵאֱלֹהֶיךָ: כִּי אֲנִי יְהוָה, אֱלֹהֵיכֶם.

25:18
Keep My decrees and safeguard My laws. If you keep them, you will live in the land securely.

Va’asitem et-chukotay ve’et mishpatay tishmeru va’asitem otam vishavtem al-ha’arets lavetach.

וַעֲשִׂיתֶם, אֶת-חֻקֹּתַי, וְאֶת-מִשְׁפָּטַי תִּשְׁמְרוּ, וַעֲשִׂיתֶם אֹתָם–וִישַׁבְתֶּם עַל-הָאָרֶץ, לָבֶטַח.
