Exodus 22
1 “If anyone will have stolen an ox or a sheep, and if he kills it or sells it, then he will restore five oxen for one ox, and four sheep for one 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 a thief will have been discovered breaking into a house, or digging under it, and he has received a mortal wound, he who struck him down will not be guilty of blood.
Soki bakangi moto azali koyiba, bongo babeti ye mpe akufi; mobomi akozwa etumbu te mpo na makila oyo esopani.
3 But if he did this when the sun was risen, he has perpetrated a homicide, and he shall die. If he does not have the means to make restitution for the theft, he shall be sold.
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 whatever he stole should be found with him, a living thing, either an ox, or a donkey, or a sheep, he shall repay double.
Soki ayibaki nyama, ezala ngombe, ane to meme, bongo bakuti nyama yango ya bomoi na maboko na ye, akofuta banyama mibale.
5 If there is any damage to a field or a vineyard, when he has released his cattle to pasture on the land of a stranger, he shall repay the best of what he has in his own field, or in his own vineyard, according to the estimation of the damage.
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 a fire will have been discovered departing from brush, and taking hold in stacks of grain, or in crops standing in the fields, whoever ignited the fire shall repay the damages.
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 anyone will have entrusted money, or a container, to his friend to keep, and if these have been stolen from the one who received them: if the thief is found, he shall repay 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 unknown, the lord of the house will be brought before the heavens to swear that he did not lay his hand on the goods of his neighbor,
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 so as to perpetrate any fraud, such as with an ox, or a donkey, or a sheep, or clothing, nor to do anything that would be able to cause damage. The case of both shall be brought before the heavens. And if they give judgment against him, he shall repay 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 anyone will have entrusted a donkey, an ox, a sheep, or any animal to the keeping of his neighbor, and it will have died, or become disabled, or have been captured by enemies, and no one saw 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 then there shall be an oath between them, that he did not lay his hand on the goods of his neighbor. And the owner shall accept the oath, and he will not be compelled to 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 will have been taken away by theft, he shall repay the damages to the owner.
Kasi soki bayibi nyama yango na maboko ya moto oyo andimaki kobokola yango, akofuta nyama yango epai ya nkolo na yango.
13 If it has been eaten by a wild beast, let him carry what was killed to him, and then he shall not make restitution.
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 If anyone borrows from his neighbor any of these things, and it has died or been disabled when the owner was not present, he shall be compelled to 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 But if the owner was present, he shall not make restitution, especially if it had been brought for hired work.
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 If a man has led astray a virgin not yet betrothed, and he has slept with her, he shall pay her dowry and have her as a 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 the father of the virgin is not willing to give her, he shall pay money according to manner of a dowry, which virgins are accustomed to receive.
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 You shall not permit practitioners of the black arts to live.
Okotika te na bomoi mwasi oyo asalaka maji.
19 Whoever has sexual intercourse with an animal shall be put to death.
Moto nyonso oyo akosangisa nzoto na nyama, asengeli kozwa etumbu ya kufa.
20 Whoever immolates to gods, other than to the Lord, shall be killed.
Moto nyonso oyo akotumba mbeka mpo na nzambe mosusu, basengeli koboma ye; mbeka ekotumbama kaka mpo na Yawe Ye moko.
21 You shall not harass the newcomer, nor shall you afflict him. For you yourselves were once newcomers 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 You shall not harm a widow or an orphan.
Bokonyokola te mwasi oyo akufisa mobali to mwana etike.
23 If you hurt them, they will cry out to me, and I will hear their cry.
Soki bonyokoli bango, bongo bango bagangi epai na Ngai, solo nakoyoka koganga na bango.
24 And my fury will be enraged, and I will strike you down with the sword. And your wives will become widows, and your sons will become orphans.
Nakosilikela bino, nakoboma bino na mopanga; bongo basi na bino mpe bakokoma basi bakufisa mibali mpe bana na bino, bana bitike.
25 If you lend money to the poor of my people who live among you, you shall not coerce them like a collector, nor oppress them with usury.
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 you take a garment from your neighbor as a pledge, you shall return it to him again before the setting of the sun.
Soki moninga na yo asimbisi yo kazaka na ye lokola ndanga, okozongisela ye yango liboso ete butu eya;
27 For it is all that he has to cover himself, to clothe his body; nor does he have anything else in which to sleep. If he cries out to me, I will hear him, because I am compassionate.
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 You shall not disparage the heavens, and you shall not speak evil of the leader of your people.
Okofingaka Nzambe te mpe okolakelaka mokambi ya bato na yo mabe te.
29 You shall not delay in paying your tithes and your first-fruits. You shall give the firstborn of your sons 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 You shall do likewise with those of the oxen and the sheep. For seven days, let it be with its mother; on the eighth day you shall repay it to 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 You shall be holy men for me. The flesh, from which beasts will have tasted, you shall not eat, but you will throw 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.
