Deuteronomy 15
1 At the end of every seven years you must cancel debts.
Na suka ya mibu sambo nyonso, bosengeli kosundola baniongo.
2 This 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.
Tala ndenge esengeli kosalema: moto nyonso oyo adefisaki ndeko na ye, mwana ya Isalaele, mbongo, asengeli kotikela ye yango. Asengeli te kosenga eloko epai ya ndeko to moninga na ye, moto ya Isalaele, pamba te tango ya kotika baniongo mpo na lokumu na Yawe esili kokoka.
3 You may collect something from a foreigner, but you must forgive whatever your brother owes you.
Bokoki kosenga niongo epai ya mopaya, kasi bosengeli kosundola baniongo nyonso oyo bandeko na bino badefaki epai na bino.
4 There 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,
Nzokande, ebongaki te ete mobola azala kati na bino; pamba te kati na mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akopesa bino mpo ete bokamata yango lokola libula, akopambola bino koleka,
5 if only you obey the LORD your God and are careful to follow all these commandments I am giving you today.
soki botosi malamu Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bosaleli malamu mitindo oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo.
6 When 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.
Pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akopambola bino ndenge alakaki; mpe bino bokodefisa na bikolo ebele, kasi bokodefa te. Bokokonza bikolo ebele, kasi ekolo moko te ekokonza bino.
7 If 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.
Soki mobola moko amonani kati na bandeko na yo na bingumba ya mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, azali kopesa yo; okokangela ye motema te mpe okoboya te kosunga ndeko na yo mobola.
8 Instead, you are to open your hand to him and freely loan him whatever he needs.
Nzokande, okofungolela ye maboko mpe okodefisa ye na motema moko, nyonso oyo akozala na yango na bosenga.
9 Be 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.
Keba ete motema na yo ezala na makanisi ya mabe te mpe eloba na yo te: « Mobu ya sambo ekomi pene, mobu ya kotika baniongo, » mpo ete otala ndeko na yo mobola na ndenge ya mabe mpe ozanga kopesa ye eloko. Mpe wana ye akolelalela epai na Yawe na tina na yo, okomema ngambo ya masumu na yo.
10 Give 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.
Osengeli kopesa ye na motema ya esengo kasi na mitema mibale te; bongo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopambola yo na misala na yo nyonso mpe na eloko nyonso oyo maboko na yo ekosimba.
11 For 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.
Nzokande lokola babola bakozala kaka kati na mokili, ngai nazali kotinda bino ete bofungola maboko na bino epai ya bandeko na bino, epai ya babola mpe epai bato nyonso oyo bakelela kati na mokili na bino.
12 If 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.
Soki moko kati na bandeko na yo, Mo-Ebre, azala mobali to mwasi, amiteki ye moko epai na yo, akosalela yo mibu motoba; na mobu ya sambo, okotika ye kokende na bonsomi.
13 And when you release him, do not send him away empty-handed.
Mpe tango okotika ye, okozongisa ye maboko pamba te;
14 You 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.
okopesa ye na motema ya esengo ndambo na yo ya bibwele, ya ble mpe ya vino; okopesa ye ndenge kaka Yawe, Nzambe na yo, apambolaki yo.
15 Remember 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.
Bokanisa ete bino mpe bozalaki bawumbu na Ejipito; mpe Yawe, Nzambe na bino, asikolaki bino. Yango wana, napesi bino mobeko oyo na mokolo ya lelo.
16 But 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,
Kasi soki alobi na yo: « Naboyi kotika yo, » mpo ete alingaka yo elongo na libota na yo mpe azalaka na esengo ya kovanda elongo na yo,
17 then 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.
wana okozwa motonga, okotia litoyi na ye na ezipelo ya ekuke mpe okotobola yango. Na bongo, akokoma mowumbu na yo mpo na libela. Okosala mpe ndenge moko mpo na mwasi mowumbu.
18 Do 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.
Komona yango likambo ya pasi te kotika mowumbu na yo na bonsomi, pamba te mosala oyo asaleli yo na mibu motoba ezali na litomba mbala mibale koleka litomba ya moto oyo ozwa na mosala. Mpe Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopambola yo na nyonso oyo okosala.
19 You 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.
Bokotia pembeni mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mwana mobali nyonso ya liboso oyo akobotama kati na bangombe, bameme mpe bantaba na bino. Kati na bitonga na bino, bokotia na mosala te bana ya liboso ya bangombe na bino mpe bokolongola te bapwale ya bana ya liboso.
20 Each year you and your household are to eat it before the LORD your God in the place the LORD will choose.
Mibu nyonso, bino elongo na mabota na bino, bokolia bibwele yango na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, na esika oyo akopona.
21 But 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.
Soki ebwele yango ezali na mbeba to ezali tengu-tengu to ekufa miso to soki ezali na mbeba mosusu ya makasi, bokoki kobonza yango te epai na Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
22 Eat it within your gates; both the ceremonially unclean and clean may eat it as they would a gazelle or a deer.
Bokolia yango kati na bingumba na bino: moto nyonso, azala mbindo to peto, akolia yango ndenge baliaka mboloko to mbuli.
23 But you must not eat the blood; pour it on the ground like water.
Kasi bokolia makila te, bosopa yango na mabele lokola mayi.
