Numbers 4
1 Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize mpe Aron:
2 “Take a census of the Kohathites among the Levites by their clans and families,
« Kati na bana mibali ya Levi, tanga motango ya bakitani ya Keati kolanda bituka mpe mabota na bango.
3 men from thirty to fifty years old—everyone who is qualified to serve in the work at the Tent of Meeting.
Tanga motango ya mibali nyonso oyo bazali na mibu ya mbotama kobanda tuku misato kino tuku mitano, mpo ete baya kosala mosala kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.
4 This service of the Kohathites at the Tent of Meeting regards the most holy things.
Tala mosala ya bato ya Keati kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani: kobatela biloko oyo eleki bule.
5 Whenever the camp sets out, Aaron and his sons are to go in, take down the veil of the curtain, and cover the ark of the Testimony with it.
Tango bakolongola molako, Aron elongo na bana na ye ya mibali bakokota na kati, bakokitisa rido mpe bakozipa na yango Sanduku ya Litatoli.
6 They are to place over this a covering of fine leather, spread a solid blue cloth over it, and insert its poles.
Na likolo na yango, bakotia bulangeti oyo esalema na poso ya nyama ya ebale, bakofinika liputa ya langi ya ble mpe bakotia mabaya ya komemela Sanduku ya Litatoli.
7 Over the table of the Presence they are to spread a blue cloth and place the plates and cups on it, along with the bowls and pitchers for the drink offering. The regular bread offering is to remain on it.
Na likolo ya mesa ya bagato ya bule, bakotanda lisusu liputa ya langi ya ble mpe bakotia na likolo na yango biloko oyo: basani ya mbele, bambeki, bakopo, milangi mpo na makabo ya masanga mpe bagato oyo bakobanda kobonza lokola makabo liboso na Ngai tango nyonso.
8 And they shall spread a scarlet cloth over them, cover them with fine leather, and insert the poles.
Bongo na likolo ya biloko yango, bakotanda liputa ya langi ya motane makasi, mpe bakozipa biloko wana nyonso na liputa ya makasi basala na poso ya nyama ya ebale. Mpe bakotia balate oyo ekosunga mpo na kotombola mpe komema mesa.
9 They are to take a blue cloth and cover the lampstand used for light, together with its lamps, wick trimmers, and trays, as well as the jars of oil with which to supply it.
Bakokamata liputa ya langi ya ble mpe bakofinika na yango etelemiselo ya minda elongo na minda na yango, biloko oyo balongolelaka makala na moto, basani mpo na putulu ya moto mpe basani ya mafuta, oyo basalelaka mosala na mesa.
10 Then they shall wrap it and all its utensils inside a covering of fine leather and put it on the carrying frame.
Bakosangisa na liboke moko, ezala elamba yango ya langi ya ble mpe biloko na yango nyonso, kati na liputa ya makasi basala na poso ya nyama ya ebale, mpe bakotia yango na likolo ya tsipoyi.
11 Over the gold altar they are to spread a blue cloth, cover it with fine leather, and insert the poles.
Bakotanda liputa ya langi ya ble na likolo ya etumbelo ya wolo mpe bakofinika bulangeti basala na poso ya nyama ya ebale; bongo bakotia balate na yango oyo ekosunga mpo na komema.
12 They are to take all the utensils for serving in the sanctuary, place them in a blue cloth, cover them with fine leather, and put them on the carrying frame.
Bakozwa biloko nyonso oyo basalaka na yango kati na Esika ya bule, bakotia yango kati na liputa ya langi ya ble, bakofinika yango bulangeti basala na poso ya nyama ya ebale; bongo bakotia yango na tsipoyi.
13 Then they shall remove the ashes from the bronze altar, spread a purple cloth over it,
Sima na bango kolongola putulu ya moto wuta na etumbelo, bakotanda liputa ya langi ya motane na likolo na yango;
14 and place on it all the vessels used to serve there: the firepans, meat forks, shovels, and sprinkling bowls—all the equipment of the altar. They are to spread over it a covering of fine leather and insert the poles.
bongo bakotia na likolo na yango biloko nyonso oyo basalaka na yango na etumbelo: basani oyo batumbaka na yango ansa, bakanya, bapawu, basani ya minene mpe biloko nyonso oyo basalaka na yango na etumbelo; bongo bakotanda na likolo ya biloko oyo nyonso, liputa ya makasi basala na poso ya nyama ya ebale, mpe bakotia balate ya etumbelo oyo ekosunga mpo na komema.
15 When Aaron and his sons have finished covering the holy objects and all their equipment, as soon as the camp is ready to move, the Kohathites shall come and do the carrying. But they must not touch the holy objects, or they will die. These are the transportation duties of the Kohathites regarding the Tent of Meeting.
Soki balingi kolongola molako mpo na kokende na esika mosusu, bana mibali ya Keati bakoya komema soki kaka Aron mpe bana na ye ya mibali basilisi kofinika Esika ya bule mpe bisalelo na yango nyonso; kasi basengeli te kosimba Esika ya bule, noki te bakokufa. Yango wana nde misala ya bana mibali ya Keati kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.
16 Eleazar son of Aaron the priest shall oversee the oil for the light, the fragrant incense, the daily grain offering, and the anointing oil. He has oversight of the entire tabernacle and everything in it, including the holy objects and their utensils.”
Tala misala ya Eleazari, mwana mobali ya Nganga-Nzambe Aron: kolandela mafuta ya etelemiselo ya minda, ansa ya kozikisa, makabo ya mokolo na mokolo mpe mafuta ya epakolami; kokengela Mongombo mpe biloko na yango nyonso, ezala Esika ya bule to biloko na yango nyonso. »
17 Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize mpe Aron:
18 “Do not allow the Kohathite tribal clans to be cut off from among the Levites.
« Bolongola te kati na Balevi lisanga ya mabota ya bato ya Keati.
19 In order that they may live and not die when they come near the most holy things, do this for them: Aaron and his sons are to go in and assign each man his task and what he is to carry.
Tala makambo oyo bosengeli kosala mpo na bango mpo ete bakufa te tango bakopusana pene ya biloko oyo eleki bule: yo, Aron mpe bana na ye ya mibali, bokokota mpe bopesa na moko na moko kati na bango mosala oyo asengeli kosala to eloko oyo asengeli komema.
20 But the Kohathites are not to go in and look at the holy objects, even for a moment, or they will die.”
Basengeli te kokota bango moko mpo na kotala Esika ya bule, ata mpo na tango moke; soki te bakokufa. »
21 And the LORD said to Moses,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
22 “Take a census of the Gershonites as well, by their families and clans,
« Tanga motango ya bato ya Gerishoni kolanda bituka mpe mabota na bango.
23 from thirty to fifty years old, counting everyone who comes to serve in the work at the Tent of Meeting.
Okotanga mibali nyonso oyo bazali na mibu ya mbotama kobanda tuku misato kino na tuku mitano, ba-oyo bakoki kosala mosala songolo kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.
24 This is the service of the Gershonite clans regarding work and transport:
Tala misala mpe mokumba ya bituka ya bana mibali ya Gerishoni:
25 They are to carry the curtains of the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting with the covering of fine leather over it, the curtains for the entrance to the Tent of Meeting,
bakobanda komema batapi ya Mongombo mpe Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani elongo na elamba na yango, elamba ya makasi basala na poso ya nyama ya ebale mpo na kozipa na likolo, rido ya ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani,
26 the curtains of the courtyard, and the curtains for the entrance at the gate of the courtyard that surrounds the tabernacle and altar, along with their ropes and all the equipment for their service. The Gershonites will do all that needs to be done with these items.
batapi ya lopango, rido ya ekuke ya lopango, oyo ezingeli Mongombo mpe etumbelo, basinga na yango mpe bisalelo na yango nyonso. Bakosala mosala oyo etali biloko oyo.
27 All the service of the Gershonites—all their transport duties and other work—is to be done at the direction of Aaron and his sons; you are to assign to them all that they are responsible to carry.
Mosala nyonso ya bato ya Gerishoni ekokambama na Aron mpe bana na ye ya mibali: ezala mpo na komema biloko to mpo na kosala mosala; bokoyebisa bango mosala nyonso oyo bango basengeli kosala.
28 This is the service of the Gershonite clans at the Tent of Meeting, and their duties shall be under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.
Wana nde misala ya bituka ya bato ya Gerishoni kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani. Itamari, mwana mobali ya Nganga-Nzambe Aron, nde akokamba misala na bango.
29 As for the sons of Merari, you are to number them by their clans and families,
Okotanga motango ya bato ya Merari, etuka moko na moko mpe libota moko na moko;
30 from thirty to fifty years old, counting everyone who comes to serve in the work of the Tent of Meeting.
okotanga mibali nyonso oyo bazali na mibu ya mbotama kobanda tuku misato kino tuku mitano, ba-oyo bakoki kosala mosala songolo kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.
31 This is the duty for all their service at the Tent of Meeting: to carry the frames of the tabernacle with its crossbars, posts, and bases,
Tala biteni ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, oyo bakobanda komema: mabaya ya Mongombo, balate na yango, makonzi mpe makolo na yango,
32 and the posts of the surrounding courtyard with their bases, tent pegs, and ropes, including all their equipment and everything related to their use. You shall assign by name the items that they are responsible to carry.
makonzi oyo ezingeli lopango, makolo na yango, bapike na yango, basinga na yango, bisalelo na yango nyonso mpe biloko nyonso oyo esungaka mpo na kokangisa yango. Bokobenga moto moko na moko na kombo mpe bokopesa ye biloko oyo akobanda komema.
33 This is the service of the Merarite clans according to all their work at the Tent of Meeting, under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.”
Wana nde misala ya bituka ya bato ya Merari. Itamari, mwana mobali ya Nganga-Nzambe Aron, nde akokamba misala na bango nyonso kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani. »
34 So Moses, Aaron, and the leaders of the congregation numbered the Kohathites by their clans and families,
Moyize, Aron mpe bakambi ya lisanga ya Isalaele batangaki motango ya bato ya Keati, kolanda etuka moko na moko mpe libota moko na moko.
35 everyone from thirty to fifty years old who came to serve in the work at the Tent of Meeting.
Mibali nyonso oyo bazalaki na mibu ya mbotama kobanda tuku misato kino tuku mitano, ba-oyo bazalaki na makoki ya kosala kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani,
36 And those numbered by their clans totaled 2,750.
batangamaki kolanda etuka moko na moko: motango na bango ezalaki nkoto mibale na nkama sambo na tuku mitano.
37 These were counted from the Kohathite clans, everyone who could serve at the Tent of Meeting. Moses and Aaron numbered them according to the command of the LORD through Moses.
Wana nde motango ya bato nyonso oyo batangamaki kati na bituka ya bato ya Keati, ba-oyo bazalaki kosala kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani. Moyize mpe Aron batangaki motango yango kolanda mitindo oyo Yawe apesaki na nzela ya Moyize.
38 Then the Gershonites were numbered by their clans and families,
Batangaki motango ya bato ya Gerishoni kolanda etuka moko na moko mpe libota moko na moko:
39 everyone from thirty to fifty years old who came to serve in the work at the Tent of Meeting.
mibali nyonso oyo bazalaki na mibu ya mbotama kobanda tuku misato kino tuku mitano, ba-oyo bazalaki na makoki ya kosala kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani,
40 And those numbered by their clans and families totaled 2,630.
batangamaki kolanda etuka moko na moko mpe libota moko na moko; motango na bango ezalaki nkoto mibale na nkama motoba na tuku misato.
41 These were counted from the Gershonite clans who served at the Tent of Meeting, whom Moses and Aaron counted at the LORD’s command.
Wana nde motango ya bato ya Gerishoni oyo batangamaki mpe bazalaki kosala kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani. Moyize mpe Aron batangaki bango kolanda mitindo oyo Yawe apesaki na nzela ya Moyize.
42 And the Merarites were numbered by their clans and families,
Batangaki motango ya bato ya Merari kolanda etuka moko na moko mpe libota moko na moko:
43 everyone from thirty to fifty years old who came to serve in the work at the Tent of Meeting.
mibali nyonso oyo bazalaki na mibu ya mbotama kobanda tuku misato kino tuku mitano, ba-oyo bazalaki na makoki ya kosala kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani,
44 The men registered by their clans numbered 3,200.
batangamaki kolanda etuka moko na moko mpe libota moko na moko; motango na bango ezalaki nkoto misato na nkama mibale.
45 These were counted from the Merarite clans, whom Moses and Aaron numbered at the LORD’s command through Moses.
Wana nde motango ya bato oyo batangamaki kati na bituka ya bato ya Merari. Moyize mpe Aron batangaki bango kolanda mitindo oyo Yawe apesaki na nzela ya Moyize.
46 So Moses, Aaron, and the leaders of Israel numbered by their clans and families all the Levites
Moyize, Aron mpe bakambi ya Isalaele batangaki motango ya Balevi nyonso, kolanda etuka moko na moko mpe libota moko na moko:
47 from thirty to fifty years old who came to do the work of serving and carrying the Tent of Meeting.
mibali nyonso oyo bazalaki na mibu ya mbotama kobanda tuku misato kino tuku mitano, ba-oyo bazalaki na makoki ya kosala kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani,
48 And the number of men was 8,580.
batangamaki; motango na bango ezalaki nkoto mwambe na nkama mitano na tuku mwambe.
49 At the LORD’s command they were numbered through Moses and each one was assigned his work and burden, as the LORD had commanded Moses.
Moyize apesaki na Molevi moko na moko mosala mpe mokumba, kolanda mitindo ya Yawe. Batangaki bango kolanda mitindo oyo Yawe apesaki na Moyize.
