Deuteronomy 15
1 At the end of seven years thou shalt make a release,
Na suka ya mibu sambo nyonso, bosengeli kosundola baniongo.
2 and this is the manner of the release: Every creditor shall relax his hand from the loan which he hath lent unto his neighbour; he shall not demand it of his neighbour, or of his brother; for a release to Jehovah hath 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 Of the foreigner thou mayest demand it; but what is thine with thy brother thy hand shall release;
Bokoki kosenga niongo epai ya mopaya, kasi bosengeli kosundola baniongo nyonso oyo bandeko na bino badefaki epai na bino.
4 save when there shall be no one in need among you; for Jehovah will greatly bless thee in the land that Jehovah thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it,
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 thou only diligently hearken unto the voice of Jehovah thy God, to take heed to do all this commandment which I command thee this day.
soki botosi malamu Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bosaleli malamu mitindo oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo.
6 For Jehovah thy God will bless thee, as he promised thee; and thou shalt lend on pledge to many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt rule over many nations, but they shall not rule over thee.
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 be amongst you a poor man, any one of thy brethren in one of thy gates, in thy land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thy heart, nor shut thy hand from thy brother in need;
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 but thou shalt open thy hand bountifully unto him, and shalt certainly lend him on pledge what is sufficient for his need, [in that] which he lacketh.
Nzokande, okofungolela ye maboko mpe okodefisa ye na motema moko, nyonso oyo akozala na yango na bosenga.
9 Beware that there be not a wicked thought in thy heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou givest him nought; and he cry against thee to Jehovah, and it be sin in thee.
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 Thou shalt bountifully give unto him, and thy heart shall not be evil-disposed when thou givest unto him; because for this thing Jehovah thy God will bless thee in all thy works, and in all the business of thy 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 the needy shall never cease from within the land; therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thy hand bountifully unto thy brother, to thy poor and to thy needy, in thy 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 thy brother, a Hebrew man, or a Hebrew woman, have been sold unto thee, he shall serve thee six years, and in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee.
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 thou sendest him out free from thee, thou shalt not let him go away empty;
Mpe tango okotika ye, okozongisa ye maboko pamba te;
14 thou shalt certainly furnish him from thy sheep, and out of thy floor, and out of thy winepress: of what Jehovah thy God hath blessed thee with shalt thou give unto him.
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 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt, and that Jehovah thy God redeemed thee; therefore I command thee this thing to-day.
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 And it shall be, if he say unto thee, I will not go away from thee, — because he loveth thee and thy house, because he is well with thee, —
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 thou shalt take an awl, and thrust it through his ear and into the door; and he shall be thy bondman for ever. And also unto thy handmaid thou shalt do likewise.
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 Let it not seem hard unto thee, when thou sendest him away free from thee; for double the worth of a hired servant hath he been to thee, [in] serving thee six years; and Jehovah thy God will bless thee in all that thou doest.
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 Every firstling that is born among thy kine and among thy sheep that is a male, thou shalt hallow to Jehovah thy God: thou shalt do no work with the firstling of thy kine, nor shear the firstling of thy sheep.
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 Thou shalt eat it before Jehovah thy God, year by year, in the place which Jehovah will choose, thou and thy household.
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 there be a defect therein, [if it be] lame, or blind, [or have] any evil defect, thou shalt not sacrifice it to Jehovah thy 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 In thy gates shalt thou eat it; the unclean and the clean [shall eat it] alike, as the gazelle and as the hart.
Bokolia yango kati na bingumba na bino: moto nyonso, azala mbindo to peto, akolia yango ndenge baliaka mboloko to mbuli.
23 Only thou shalt not eat the blood thereof: thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water.
Kasi bokolia makila te, bosopa yango na mabele lokola mayi.
