Exodus 22
1 If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it, he shall pay five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep.
Soki moto ayibi ngombe moko to meme moko, bongo abomi yango to ateki yango; asengeli kofuta bangombe mitano mpo na ngombe moko oyo ayibaki to bameme minei mpo na meme moko oyo ayibaki.
2 If the thief is found breaking in, and be smitten so that he dies, there shall be no bloodguiltiness for him.
Soki bakangi moto azali koyiba, bongo babeti ye mpe akufi; mobomi akozwa etumbu te mpo na makila oyo esopani.
3 If the sun be risen upon him, there shall be bloodguiltiness for him. A thief shall make restitution. If he has nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
Kasi soki makambo yango esalemi na moyi, moto oyo akoboma ye akozwa etumbu mpo na makila oyo esopani. Moyibi nyonso asengeli kozongisa biloko oyo ayibi. Soki azali na eloko te, bakoteka ye mpo na kofuta eloko oyo ayibaki.
4 If the theft is found in his hand alive, whether it be ox, or donkey, or sheep, he shall pay double.
Soki ayibaki nyama, ezala ngombe, ane to meme, bongo bakuti nyama yango ya bomoi na maboko na ye, akofuta banyama mibale.
5 If a man shall cause a field or vineyard to be eaten, and shall let his beast loose, and it feeds in another man's field, he shall make restitution of the best of his own field, and of the best of his own vineyard.
Soki moto azali koleisa bibwele na ye matiti na elanga na ye to na elanga na ye ya vino, bongo atiki bibwele yango koyengayenga mpe ekeyi kolia matiti na elanga to na elanga ya vino ya moto mosusu, nkolo bibwele asengeli kofuta mbuma oyo eleki kitoko kati na elanga na ye to kati na elanga na ye ya vino.
6 If fire breaks out, and catches in thorns, so that the shocks of grain, or the standing grain, or the field are consumed, he who kindled the fire shall surely make restitution.
Soki moto apelisi moto, bongo moto yango ekutani na banzete ya sende, epanzani mpe ezikisi ble oyo basili kotia na maboke to ble oyo babuki nanu te, moto oyo apelisaki moto asengeli kofuta biloko nyonso oyo eziki.
7 If a man shall deliver to his neighbor money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house, if the thief be found, he shall pay double.
Soki moto abombisi palata to biloko na ye ya motuya epai ya moninga na ye, bongo bayibi yango kati na ndako ya moninga wana; soki bakangi moyibi ya biloko yango, akozongisa mbala mibale biloko oyo ayibaki.
8 If the thief is not found, then the master of the house shall come near to God, to see whether he has not put his hand to his neighbor's goods.
Kasi soki moyibi amonani te, nkolo ndako asengeli kosamba liboso ya basambisi mpo na koyeba soki ayibaki biloko ya moninga na ye to te.
9 For every matter of trespass, whether it be for ox, for donkey, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of lost thing, of which a man says, This is it, the case of both parties shall come before God. He whom God shall condemn shall pay double to his neighbor.
Na likambo nyonso ya moyibi, soki bato mibale bazali kowela ngombe, ane, meme, elamba to eloko nyonso oyo ebungaki, bongo moto na moto azali koloba: ‹ Ezali ya ngai! › bango mibale bakomema likambo na bango liboso ya basambisi; bongo moto oyo basambisi bakokweyisa akozongisa yango mbala mibale epai ya moninga na ye.
10 If a man delivers to his neighbor a donkey, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep, and it dies, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it,
Soki moto apesi moninga na ye ngombe to ane to meme to nyama mosusu mpo ete abokola, bongo nyama yango ekufi to ebukani to bayibi yango mpe ata moto moko te amoni mpo na kotatola ndenge nini likambo yango esalemaki,
11 the oath of Jehovah shall be between them both, whether he has not put his hand to his neighbor's goods. And the owner of it shall accept it, and he shall not make restitution.
kaka ndayi oyo balapi na Kombo na Yawe nde ekokabola bango: Moto oyo andimaki kobokola akolapa ndayi liboso ya Yawe mpo na kotalisa ete ayebi likambo te. Bongo nkolo nyama asengeli kondima maloba ya moninga na ye mpe ye akofuta nyama yango te.
12 But if it is stolen from him, he shall make restitution to the owner of it.
Kasi soki bayibi nyama yango na maboko ya moto oyo andimaki kobokola yango, akofuta nyama yango epai ya nkolo na yango.
13 If it is torn in pieces, let him bring it for evidence. He shall not make good that which was torn.
Soki ezali nyama ya zamba nde ebomaki nyama yango, moto oyo andimaki kobokola yango akomema lokola litatoli biteni oyo etikali; bongo akofuta nyama yango te.
14 And if a man borrows anything of his neighbor, and it be hurt, or die, the owner of it not being with it, he shall surely make restitution.
Soki moto adefi nyama epai ya moninga na ye, bongo ebukani lokolo to ekufi na tango oyo nkolo na yango azali te, moto wana asengeli kofuta yango.
15 If the owner of it is with it, he shall not make it good. If it be a hired thing, it came for its hire.
Nzokande soki nkolo na yango azalaki wana, moto oyo adefaki akofuta nyama yango te. Soki bayokanaki ete akofuta mbongo sima na kosalela yango, asengeli kofuta mbongo oyo bayokanaki.
16 And if a man entices a virgin who is not betrothed, and lies with her, he shall surely pay a dowry for her to be his wife.
Soki mobali alingi elenge mwasi oyo ayebi nanu nzoto ya mibali te mpe azali na mobandami na libala te, bongo asangisi na ye nzoto, asengeli kofuta mbongo ya libala mpo ete akoma mwasi na ye.
17 If her father utterly refuses to give her to him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
Soki tata ya elenge mwasi aboyi kopesa mwana na ye na libala epai ya mobali wana, mobali yango akofuta mbongo ya libala na motuya oyo babalelaka elenge mwasi oyo ayebi nanu nzoto ya mibali te.
18 Thou shall not allow a sorceress to live.
Okotika te na bomoi mwasi oyo asalaka maji.
19 Whoever lies with a beast shall surely be put to death.
Moto nyonso oyo akosangisa nzoto na nyama, asengeli kozwa etumbu ya kufa.
20 He who sacrifices to any god, except to Jehovah only, shall be utterly destroyed.
Moto nyonso oyo akotumba mbeka mpo na nzambe mosusu, basengeli koboma ye; mbeka ekotumbama kaka mpo na Yawe Ye moko.
21 And thou shall not wrong a sojourner, neither shall thou oppress him, for ye were sojourners in the land of Egypt.
Okosalisa mopaya mosala na ndenge ya mabe te mpe okonyokola ye te, pamba te bino mpe bozalaki bapaya na Ejipito.
22 Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
Bokonyokola te mwasi oyo akufisa mobali to mwana etike.
23 If thou afflict them at all, and they cry at all to me, I will surely hear their cry,
Soki bonyokoli bango, bongo bango bagangi epai na Ngai, solo nakoyoka koganga na bango.
24 and my wrath shall grow hot, and I will kill you with the sword, and your wives shall be widows, and your sons fatherless.
Nakosilikela bino, nakoboma bino na mopanga; bongo basi na bino mpe bakokoma basi bakufisa mibali mpe bana na bino, bana bitike.
25 If thou lend money to any of my people with thee who is poor, thou shall not be to him as a creditor, neither shall ye lay upon him interest.
Soki odefisi mbongo na moko kati na bato na Ngai, na mobola oyo azali kati na bino, okosala te ndenge modefisi mbongo asalaka; okosenga ye mileki te.
26 If thou at all take thy neighbor's garment to pledge, thou shall restore it to him before the sun goes down,
Soki moninga na yo asimbisi yo kazaka na ye lokola ndanga, okozongisela ye yango liboso ete butu eya;
27 for that is his only covering. It is his garment for his skin. How shall he sleep? And it shall come to pass, when he cries to me, that I will hear, for I am gracious.
pamba te azali kaka na kazaka wana mpo na kofinika nzoto na ye. Akofinika lisusu nini tango akolala? Soki agangi epai na Ngai, nakoyoka ye mpo ete nazali Nzambe ya mawa.
28 Thou shall not revile God, nor speak ill of a ruler of thy people.
Okofingaka Nzambe te mpe okolakelaka mokambi ya bato na yo mabe te.
29 Thou shall not delay to offer from thy harvest, and from the outflow of thy presses. The firstborn of thy sons thou shall give to me.
Okowumisa te kopesa Ngai mbuma ya liboso oyo ekomela mpe vino oyo okamoli. Okopesa Ngai mwana na yo ya liboso ya mobali.
30 Likewise thou shall do with thine oxen, and with thy sheep. Seven days it shall be with its dam. On the eighth day thou shall give it me.
Okosala mpe lolenge moko mpo na bana liboso ya bangombe, bameme mpe bantaba na yo: ekotikala mikolo sambo elongo na bamama na yango; bongo na mokolo ya mwambe, okopesa Ngai yango.
31 And ye shall be holy men to me. Therefore ye shall not eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field. Ye shall cast it to the dogs.
Bokozala bule mpo na Ngai: bokolia te mosuni ya nyama oyo babomi na nyama ya zamba; bosengeli kopesa yango na bambwa.
