< Deuteronomy 16 >
1 Observe the month of new corn, which is the first of the spring, that thou mayst celebrate the phase to the Lord thy God: because in this month the Lord thy God brought thee out of Egypt by night.
Batela sanza ya Abibi mpe sepela feti ya Pasika mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na yo, pamba te ezalaki na butu moko ya sanza yango nde Yawe abimisaki yo na Ejipito.
2 And thou shalt sacrifice the phase to the Lord thy God, of sheep, and of oxen, in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, that his name may dwell there.
Tala biloko oyo okobonza lokola mbeka ya Pasika mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na yo, na esika oyo akopona mpo na kotia Kombo na Ye: ngombe ya mobali, meme ya mobali mpe ntaba ya mwasi.
3 Thou shalt not eat with it leavened bread: seven days shalt thou eat without leaven, the bread of affliction, because thou camest out of Egypt in fear: that thou mayst remember the day of thy coming out of Egypt, all the days of thy life.
Okolia yango te na mapa oyo basangisa na levire. Kasi mikolo sambo, okolia mapa ezanga levire, mapa ya pasi, pamba te obimaki na Ejipito na lombangu. Okosalaka bongo na mikolo nyonso ya bomoi na yo mpo ete okanisaka mokolo oyo obimaki na Ejipito.
4 No leaven shall be seen in all thy coasts for seven days, neither shall any of the flesh of that which was sacrificed the first day in the evening remain until morning.
Tika ete levire emonana te epai na yo, kati na mokili na yo nyonso mikolo sambo. Kotika te ete nyama oyo babonzi na pokwa ya mokolo ya liboso etikala kino na tongo.
5 Thou mayst not immolate the phase in any one of thy cities, which the Lord thy God will give thee:
Okoki te kobonza mbeka ya Pasika kati na bingumba nyonso oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, apesi yo.
6 But in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, that his name may dwell there: thou shalt immolate the phase in the evening, at the going down of the sun, at which time thou camest out of Egypt.
Ezali kaka na esika oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopona mpo na kotia Kombo na Ye nde bokobonza mbeka ya Pasika. Bokosala yango na pokwa, tango moyi elalaka, ngonga oyo obimaki na Ejipito.
7 And thou shalt dress, and eat it in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, and in the morning rising up thou shalt go into thy dwellings.
Okolamba mpe okolia yango na esika oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopona. Bongo na tongo, okozonga na ndako na yo.
8 Six days shalt thou eat unleavened bread: and on the seventh day, because it is the assembly of the Lord thy God, thou shalt do no work.
Mikolo motoba, okolia mapa ezanga levire; bongo na mokolo ya sambo, okosala feti monene mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na yo; okosala mosala moko te.
9 Thou shalt number unto thee seven weeks from that day, wherein thou didst put the sickle to the corn.
Okotanga baposo sambo, kobanda na mokolo oyo okotia mbeli na elanga ya ble mpo na kobuka ble yango.
10 And thou shalt celebrate the festival of weeks to the Lord thy God, a voluntary oblation of thy hand, which thou shalt offer according to the blessing of the Lord thy God.
Okosala feti ya Baposo mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na yo; okobonzela Ye makabo wuta na mokano ya motema na yo moko kolanda mapamboli oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopesa yo.
11 And thou shalt feast before the Lord thy God, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite that is within thy gates, and the stranger and the fatherless, and the widow, who abide with you: in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, that his name may dwell there:
Okosepela liboso ya Yawe, Nzambe na yo, na esika oyo akopona mpo na kotia Kombo na Ye: yo, bana na yo ya mibali, bana na yo ya basi, bawumbu na yo ya mibali, basi bawumbu na yo, Balevi oyo bazali kati na bingumba na yo, bapaya, bana bitike mpe basi bakufisa mibali oyo bazali kovanda kati na yo.
12 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a servant in Egypt: and thou shalt keep and do the things that are commanded.
Kobosana te ete ozalaki mowumbu kati na Ejipito mpe salela malamu mitindo oyo.
13 Thou shalt celebrate the solemnity also of tabernacles seven days, when thou hast gathered in thy fruit of the barnfloor and of the winepress.
Mpo na oyo etali feti ya Bandako ya kapo, okosala yango mikolo sambo sima na yo kosangisa bambuma na yo ya ble mpe kokamola vino na yo.
14 And thou shalt make merry in thy festival time, thou, thy son, and thy daughter, thy manservant, and thy maidservant, the Levite also and the stranger, and the fatherless and the widow that are within thy gates.
Okozala na esengo na feti yango: yo, bana na yo ya mibali mpe ya basi, bawumbu na yo ya mibali, basi bawumbu na yo, Balevi, bapaya, bana bitike mpe basi bakufisa mibali oyo bazali kati na bingumba na yo.
15 Seven days shalt thou celebrate feasts to the Lord thy God in the place which the Lord shall choose: and the Lord thy God will bless thee in all thy fruits, and in every work of thy hands, and thou shalt be in joy.
Mikolo sambo, okosala yango feti mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na yo, na bisika oyo Yawe akopona; pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopambola milona na yo mpe misala nyonso ya maboko na yo; bongo esengo na yo ekozala mingi koleka.
16 Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before the Lord thy God in the place which he shall choose: in the feast of unleavened bread, in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles. No one shall appear with his hands empty before the Lord:
Mbala misato na mobu, mibali nyonso basengeli kokende liboso ya Yawe, Nzambe na yo, na esika oyo Ye akopona: na feti ya Mapa ezanga levire, na feti ya Baposo, mpe na feti ya Bandako ya kapo. Moko te akokende liboso ya Yawe, maboko pamba:
17 But every one shall offer according to what he hath, according to the blessing of the Lord his God, which he shall give him.
moko na moko kati na bino asengeli komema likabo kolanda mapamboli oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, apesi ye.
18 Thou shalt appoint judges and magistrates in all thy gates, which the Lord thy God shall give thee, in all thy tribes: that they may judge the people with just judgment,
Okopona basambisi mpe bakalaka kati na bikolo na yo nyonso, kati na bingumba nyonso oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopesa yo. Bakokata makambo ya bato na bosembo.
19 And not go aside to either part. Thou shalt not accept person nor gifts: for gifts blind the eyes of the wise, and change the words of the just.
Okobebisaka bosembo te, okoponaka bilongi te, okondimaka kanyaka te, pamba te ezipaka miso ya bato ya bwanya mpe ebebisaka maloba ya bato ya sembo.
20 Thou shalt follow justly after that which is just: that thou mayst live and possess the land, which the Lord thy God shall give thee.
Okosalelaka bosembo mpe bosembo kaka, mpo ete owumela mpe okamata mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopesa yo.
21 Thou shalt plant no grove, nor any tree near the altar of the Lord thy God:
Okotelemisa te likonzi ya nzambe mwasi Ashera pembeni ya etumbelo oyo okotonga mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na yo.
22 Neither shalt thou make nor set up to thyself a statue: which things the Lord thy God hateth.
Okotelemisa te libanga ya bule, pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na yo, ayinaka nyonso wana.
