Leviticus 17
1 Then the LORD said to Moses,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
2 “Speak to Aaron, his sons, and all the Israelites and tell them this is what the LORD has commanded:
« Yebisa Aron, bana na ye ya mibali mpe bana nyonso ya Isalaele, mpe loba na bango: ‹ Tala maloba oyo Yawe alobi:
3 ‘Anyone from the house of Israel who slaughters an ox, a lamb, or a goat in the camp or outside of it
‘Moto nyonso kati na bana ya Isalaele, oyo akokata kingo ya ngombe, ya meme to ya ntaba, ezala kati na molako to na libanda ya molako;
4 instead of bringing it to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting to present it as an offering to the LORD before His tabernacle—that man shall incur bloodguilt. He has shed blood and must be cut off from among his people.
mpe amemi yango te na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpo na kobonza yango lokola likabo epai na Yawe liboso ya Mongombo ya Yawe, makila na yango ekotangama na moto ya moto yango. Lokola asopi makila, bakolongola ye kati na bato na ye.
5 For this reason the Israelites will bring to the LORD the sacrifices they have been offering in the open fields. They are to bring them to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and offer them as sacrifices of peace to the LORD.
Boye, na esika ete bana ya Isalaele bamemaka bambeka na bango na bilanga, bakomema yango mpo na Yawe epai ya Nganga-Nzambe, na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani lokola mbeka ya boyokani epai na Yawe.
6 The priest will then sprinkle the blood on the altar of the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and burn the fat as a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
Nganga-Nzambe akobwaka makila na etumbelo ya Yawe, na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpe akotumba mafuta na yango lokola mbeka oyo solo kitoko na yango ekosepelisa Yawe.
7 They must no longer offer their sacrifices to the goat demons to which they have prostituted themselves. This will be a permanent statute for them for the generations to come.’
Bana ya Isalaele bakobonza lisusu te bambeka na bango epai banzambe ya bikeko ya bantaba ya mibali, oyo basambelaka. Oyo ekozala malako ya libela mpo na bango mpe mpo na milongo oyo ekoya.’ ›
8 Tell them that if anyone from the house of Israel or any foreigner living among them offers a burnt offering or a sacrifice
Loba na bango: ‹ Moto nyonso ya Isalaele to mopaya nyonso oyo azali kati na bango, oyo akobonza mbeka ya kotumba to mbeka mosusu,
9 but does not bring it to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting to sacrifice it to the LORD, that man must be cut off from his people.
na kozanga komema yango na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpo na kobonza yango epai ya Yawe, bakolongola ye kati na bato ya Isalaele.
10 If anyone from the house of Israel or a foreigner living among them eats any blood, I will set My face against that person and cut him off from among his people.
Nakobalukela mpe nakolongola kati na bato na ye, moto nyonso oyo akolia makila, azala moto ya Isalaele to mopaya nyonso oyo avandi kati na bango;
11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement for your souls upon the altar; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.
pamba te bomoi ya ekelamu nyonso ezali kati na makila. Napesi bino yango mpo ete bosala na yango mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na bomoi na bino, na etumbelo. Lokola bomoi ya moto ezali kati na makila, yango wana makila esalaka mosala ya bolimbisi masumu.
12 Therefore I say to the Israelites, ‘None of you may eat blood, nor may any foreigner living among you eat blood.’
Boye, nalobaki na bana ya Isalaele: ‘Moto moko te mpe mopaya moko te kati na bino akoki kolia makila.’
13 And if any Israelite or foreigner living among them hunts down a wild animal or bird that may be eaten, he must drain its blood and cover it with dirt.
Moto nyonso kati na bana ya Isalaele to mopaya oyo avandi kati na bango, oyo akokende bokila mpe akokanga nyama ya zamba to ndeke oyo baliaka, asengeli kosopa makila na yango mpe kozipa yango na mabele, pamba te bomoi ya ekelamu nyonso ezali kati na makila na yango.
14 For the life of all flesh is its blood. Therefore I have told the Israelites, ‘You must not eat the blood of any living thing, because the life of all flesh is its blood; whoever eats it must be cut off.’
Yango wana, nalobaki na bana ya Isalaele: ‘Bokoki kolia makila ya ekelamu ata moko te, pamba te bomoi ya ekelamu nyonso ezali kati na makila na yango. Moto oyo akolia yango, bakolongola ye kati na bato.’
15 And any person, whether native or foreigner, who eats anything found dead or mauled by wild beasts must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening; then he will be clean.
Moto nyonso, azala mwana mboka to mopaya, oyo akolia mosuni ya nyama oyo ekufi yango moko to oyo babomi na nyama ya zamba, akosukola bilamba na ye mpe nzoto na ye na mayi. Akozala mbindo kino na pokwa, sima na yango akokoma peto.
16 But if he does not wash his clothes and bathe himself, then he shall bear his iniquity.”
Kasi soki asukoli bilamba mpe nzoto na ye te, akomema ngambo. › »
