Deuteronomy 28
1 If you truly obey what the Lord your God tells you, and carefully follow all his commandments that I'm giving you today, then the Lord your God will place you high above all the nations of the earth.
Soki botosi penza Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bosaleli penza mitindo na Ye oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo; Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akotombola bino likolo ya bikolo nyonso ya mokili.
2 You will have all the following blessings and even more, if you do what the Lord your God says.
Tala mapamboli oyo ekopesamela bino mpe ekolanda bino tango bokotosa Yawe, Nzambe na bino:
3 You will be blessed when you're in the town; you will be blessed when you're in the countryside.
Bokopambolama na engumba mpe bokopambolama na bilanga.
4 You will be blessed with many children. You will be blessed with good harvests. You will be blessed with livestock—your cattle will have many calves, and your sheep will have many lambs.
Mabota na bino ekopambolama; milona na bino mpe bibwele na bino: bangombe na bino, bameme mpe bantaba na bino ekopambolama.
5 You will be blessed with plenty of bread.
Bitunga na bino mpe mesa na bino oyo bosalelaka mapa ekopambolama.
6 You will be blessed wherever you go and in everything you do.
Bokopambolama tango bokokota mpe bokopambolama tango bokobima.
7 The Lord will defeat the enemies who come to attack you. They will come at you from one direction, but they will scatter seven different ways.
Yawe akosala ete banguna oyo bakotelemela bino bakokweyisama liboso na bino; bakoya epai na bino na nzela moko, kasi bakokima bino na banzela sambo.
8 The Lord will bless your income and everything you do. The Lord your God will bless you in the country he is giving you.
Yawe Nzambe akopambola bibombelo na bino ya biloko mpe akopambola misala nyonso ya maboko na bino. Yawe Nzambe akopambola bino na mokili oyo azali kopesa bino.
9 The Lord will make you his holy people, just as he promised you, if you obey the Lord your God's commandments and follow his ways.
Yawe akokomisa bino libota na Ye ya bule ndenge alakaki bino tango alapaki ndayi, pamba te bokobatela mitindo ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bokotambola na banzela na Ye.
10 Then everyone on earth will see that the Lord has chosen you to be his, and they will be afraid of you.
Bongo bato nyonso ya mokili bakomona ete bozali penza bato ya Yawe mpe bakobanga bino.
11 The Lord will make you very prosperous. You will have many children, your livestock will produce plenty of young, and your land will grow good harvests—all this in the country the Lord promised your forefathers he would give you.
Yawe akotondisa bino na bozwi ebele: mabota, bibwele, milona kati na mokili oyo alapaki ndayi epai ya bakoko na bino ete akopesa bino.
12 The Lord will provide rain for your land at the right time from his heavenly storehouse to bless all your work growing crops. You will lend money to many nations but you won't need to borrow from any of them.
Mpo na bolamu na yo, Yawe akofungola likolo, ebombelo ya bamvula na Ye, mpo na konokisa mvula na mokili na bino na eleko ya malamu; mpe akopambola misala nyonso ya maboko na bino. Bikolo ebele ekodefa epai na bino, kasi bino bokodefa ata na ekolo moko te.
13 The Lord will put you in first place, not the last. You will only go up, never down, as long as you listen to and follow carefully the commandments of the Lord your God that I'm giving you today.
Yawe akokomisa bino mito, kasi mikila te; pamba te bokobatela penza mitindo ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo mpe bokosalela yango penza. Lokumu na bino ekozala kaka likolo, ekokita te.
14 Don't deviate from any of my instructions today. Don't go and worship other gods.
Kati na mitindo oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo, bopengwa ata na moko te, mpo na kolanda banzambe mosusu mpe kosalela yango.
15 But if you don't obey the Lord your God by following carefully all his commandments and regulations I'm giving you today, then you will experience all the following curses and more:
Kasi soki botosi te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bosaleli te mitindo mpe bikateli na Ye, oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo, tala bilakeli mabe oyo ekokomela bino mpe ekokanga bino:
16 You will be cursed when you're in the town; you will be cursed when you're in the countryside.
Bokolakelama mabe kati na engumba mpe bokolakelama mabe kati na bilanga.
17 You will be cursed by not having bread.
Bitunga na bino mpe mesa na bino oyo bosalelaka mapa ekolakelama mabe.
18 You will be cursed by not having children, and by not having good harvests, and by your cattle not having calves, and your sheep not having lambs.
Mabota na bino, milona na bino, bibwele na bino: bangombe, bameme mpe bantaba ekolakelama mabe.
19 You will be cursed wherever you go and in everything you do.
Bokolakelama mabe tango bokokota mpe bokolakelama mabe tango bokobima.
20 The Lord will send you curses, making you confused and frustrated in everything you do, until you are brought down and die quickly because of the evil that you've done by abandoning him.
Kati na nyonso oyo bokosala, Yawe akotindela bino bilakeli mabe, minyoko mpe mikakatano; bongo bokowumela te mpo na kobebisama nye likolo ya mabe oyo bosalaki ya kosundola Yawe.
21 The Lord will give you infectious diseases until he has wiped you out from the country you are entering town.
Yawe akotindela bino bokono oyo ebomaka kino akobebisa bino kati na mokili oyo bozali kokota mpo na kozwa.
22 Then Lord will hit you with sickness that makes you waste away, with a severe fever and swelling like you're burning up, while your crops are damaged by drought and blight and mildew. These will attack you until you die.
Yawe akosilisa koboma bino na bokono ya ndenge na ndenge oyo akotindela bino: fievele, kosila nzoto, mpese. Akotinda lisusu bokono oyo ekobebisa bilanga na bino: kozanga mvula, banyama mike oyo ebebisaka milona mpe bibende. Bokono nyonso oyo ekolanda bino kino bokosila kokufa.
23 The sky above you will be like bronze, and the earth beneath you will be like iron.
Mapata oyo ezali likolo ya mito na bino ekokoma lokola bronze mpe ekolekisa lisusu mvula te, mpe mabele oyo ezali na se ya makolo na bino ekokoma makasi lokola libende mpe ekobotisa lisusu mabele te.
24 The Lord will change the rain of your land into dust and sand; it will fall from the sky on you until you're destroyed.
Kati na mokili na bino, Yawe akobongola mvula mpo ete ekoma putulu mpe zelo; yango ekokweya wuta na likolo kino ekobebisa bino.
25 The Lord will have your enemies defeat you. You will attack them from one direction, but you will scatter seven different ways. Everyone on earth will be horrified at what happens to you.
Yawe akosala ete banguna na bino balonga bino. Bakoya epai na bino na nzela moko mpe bino bokokima liboso na bango na banzela sambo. Bokokoma eloko ya somo na miso ya bikolo nyonso ya mokili.
26 Your dead bodies will be food for birds of prey and wild animals, and there won't be anyone to scare them away.
Bibembe na bino ekokoma bilei ya bandeke nyonso mpe ya banyama ya zamba, bongo moto moko te akoya wana mpo na kobengana yango.
27 The Lord will give you boils like he did to the Egyptians, with swellings and scabs and skin rashes that can't be cured.
Yawe akotindela bino bokono oyo esilaka te lokola oyo atindaki na Ejipito: pota ya libumu, makwanza mpe mikusa ya nzoto.
28 The Lord will send you mad and make you blind and confused,
Yawe akotindela bino bokono ya liboma, ya kokufa miso mpe ya mobulu na makanisi.
29 so that even at noon you will be groping around like a blind man in the dark. You won't be successful in what you do. You'll be persecuted and robbed the whole time, and no one will come and save you.
Na moyi makasi, bokotenga-tenga lokola bakufi miso na molili. Bokolonga te na makambo nyonso oyo bokosala. Mokolo na mokolo, bakonyokola bino mpe bakoyiba bino, mpe moto moko te akomonana mpo na kokangola bino.
30 You will be engaged to marry a woman, but another man will sleep with her. You will build a house but you won't live in it. You will plant a vineyard but won't benefit from any harvest.
Soki moko kati na bino azwi mwasi lokola mobandami na libala, mobali mosusu nde akosangisa na ye nzoto. Mosusu akotonga ndako, kasi akovanda yango te. Mosusu akolona elanga ya vino, kasi okobuka bambuma na yango te.
31 Your ox will be slaughtered right in front of you, but you won't eat any of it. Your donkey will be taken away and won't be returned to you. Your sheep will be taken by your enemies, and no one will come and save you.
Bakokata bakingo ya bangombe na bino na miso na bino, kasi bokolia yango te. Bakokamata ba-ane na bino na makasi, na miso na bino, kasi ekozonga epai na bino te; bakokaba epai ya banguna na bino, bameme mpe bantaba na bino; mpe moto moko te akosunga bino.
32 Your sons and daughters will be taken away as slaves to other nations while you watch, and you'll wear your eyes out crying over them, but there won't be anything you can do about it.
Bakokaba bana na bino ya mibali mpe ya basi na ekolo mosusu, mpe bokofungola miso na bino mpo na kotala mokolo na mokolo bozongi na bango, kasi bokokoka kosala ata eloko moko te.
33 A foreign nation you've never heard of will eat all the crops you worked so hard to grow. You will be continually persecuted and downtrodden.
Bato oyo boyebi te bakolia bambuma ya mabele na bino mpe ya misala na bino nyonso.
34 What you see will drive you mad.
Bokobela liboma likolo ya makambo oyo miso na bino ekobanda komona.
35 The Lord will give you painful boils that can't be cured on your knees and thighs, in fact from head to toe.
Yawe akotindela bino bokono oyo ekobuka bino mabolongo, makolo; bokono oyo ekoki kobika te mpe ekopanzana banda na se ya matambe kino na mito.
36 The Lord will exile you and your chosen king you to a foreign nation that neither you nor your forefathers had ever heard of. There you will worship other gods, idols made of wood and stone.
Yawe akomema bino mpe mokonzi oyo bokopona mpo na koyangela bino, na ekolo oyo bino mpe bakoko na bino botikala nanu koyeba te. Kuna bokogumbamela banzambe mosusu: banzambe ya banzete mpe ya mabanga.
37 You will be something that horrifies all the nations where you've been exiled by the Lord. They will laugh at you and ridicule you.
Bikolo nyonso epai wapi Yawe akomema bino, bakomona bakokima bino lokola eloko ya somo mpe bakobeta masapo mpo na kotiola bino.
38 You will sow a lot of seed in the field, but harvest very little because the locusts will destroy it.
Bokolona bankona ebele na bilanga, kasi bokobuka moke; pamba te mabanki ekolia bankona wana.
39 You will plant and vineyards and care for them, but you won't harvest the grapes or drink the wine, because they'll be eaten by maggots.
Bokosala mpe bokobongisa bilanga ya vino, kasi bokotikala te komela vino yango mpe kobuka bambuma na yango, pamba te banyama mike oyo eliaka nzete ekobebisa yango.
40 You will have olive trees all over the country but you won't have any olive oil to use, because the olives will drop early from the trees.
Bokozala na banzete ya olive na mokili na bino mobimba, kasi bokopakola mafuta na yango te, pamba te bambuma ya olive ekokweya liboso ete ekomela.
41 You will have sons and daughters, but you won't have them for long, because they will be taken off into captivity as slaves.
Bokozala na bana ya mibali mpe ya basi, kasi bokobatela bango te, pamba te bakokende na bowumbu.
42 Locust swarms will destroy all your trees and crops.
Mabanki ekolia banzete na bino nyonso mpe bambuma ya mabele na bino.
43 Foreigners who live with you will rise higher and higher in status above you, while you sink lower and lower.
Mopaya oyo avandi kati na bino akoleka bino na lokumu tango nyonso, kasi bino bokokita se kokita;
44 They will lend to you, but you will not lend to them. They will be the first, and you will be the last.
akodefisa bino, kasi bino bokokoka kodefisa ye te; akozala moto, kasi bino bokozala mokila.
45 All these curses will come down on you. They will chase after you and attack you until you die because you did not obey the Lord your God and keep the commandments and regulations he gave you.
Tala bilakeli mabe nyonso oyo ekokomela bino, ekolanda bino mpe ekozwa bino, ekokanga bino kino bokobebisama; pamba te botosaki te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bobatelaki te mitindo mpe bikateli oyo apesaki bino.
46 They will be lasting evidence, visible signs of what happened to you and your descendants.
Bilakeli mabe oyo ekozala elembo mpe makambo ya kokamwa epai na bino mpe epai ya bakitani na bino mpo na libela.
47 Because you did not serve the Lord your God with happiness and with a joyful attitude,
Mpo ete bosalelaki te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, na esengo mpe na kosepela na tango ya bofuluki;
48 you will serve your enemies that the Lord sends to attack you with hunger, thirst, nakedness, and poverty. He will tie an iron yoke on your neck until he has destroyed you.
tango bokozala na nzala mpe na posa ya komela, mpe tango bokozanga bilamba mpe bokokelela, bokosalela banguna oyo Yawe Nzambe akotindela bino. Akotia bino ekangiseli ya ebende na kingo kino akobebisa bino.
49 The Lord will bring a nation to attack you from a long way off, from the ends of the earth. They will swoop down upon you like an eagle, this nation whose language you won't understand.
Yawe akotindela bino na mosika, wuta na suka ya mokili, ekolo moko oyo ezali lokola mpongo oyo ezali kopumbwa, ekolo oyo bokososola monoko na yango te; ekobundisa bino.
50 They are a ruthless nation who don't respect for the old and have no mercy on the young.
Bato ya ekolo yango bazali na bilongi ya kanda-kanda, batosaka te bato oyo bazali mikolo mpe bayokelaka bilenge mawa te.
51 They will eat your lambs and calves and the crops you've grown until you are destroyed. They won't leave you any grain or new wine or olive oil, no calves from your herds or lambs from your flocks, so you'll die of starvation.
Bakolia bana ya bibwele na bino mpe bambuma ya mabele na bino, kino bakobebisa bino. Bakotikela bino ata ble te, vino ya sika te, mafuta te, ata bana ngombe na bino te, ata bana meme na bino te mpe ata bantaba na bino te kino bokobebisama.
52 They will besiege all the towns in your country, until the high, fortified walls that you trust in have fallen. They will besiege all your towns in your country that the Lord your God has given you.
Bakozingela bingumba na bino nyonso kati na mokili na bino kino bamir na bino ya milayi mpe ya makasi oyo botielaka mitema ekokweya. Bakozingela bingumba nyonso kati na mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, apesi bino.
53 You'll end up eating your children, the flesh of the sons and daughters the Lord your God gave you, because of the siege and the suffering that your enemy will cause you.
Mpo na pasi oyo banguna na bino bakomonisa bino tango bakozingela bino, bokolia bana na bino, bokolia misuni ya bana na bino ya mibali mpe ya basi oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, apesi bino.
54 The kindest and most sensitive man among you will refuse to share his food with his brother, the wife he loves, and those of his own children who are left.
Mobali ya malamu koleka kati na bino, oyo ayokelaka bato mawa, akoyokela lisusu moto mawa te: ezala ndeko na ye to mwasi oyo ye alingaka to bana na ye oyo batikali.
55 He will refuse to share with any of them the flesh of his children that he's forced to eat because he doesn't have anything else because of the siege and suffering your enemy has caused you in all your towns.
Akopesa na moto moko te kati na bango mosuni ya bana na ye oyo akozala kolia. Yango kaka nde bilei akotikala na yango mpo na pasi oyo banguna na bino bakomonisa bino na tango bakozingela bino na bingumba na bino nyonso.
56 The kindest and most sensitive woman among you, so kind and sensitive she wouldn't ever go barefoot on the ground, will refuse to share her food, a baby and its afterbirth, with the husband she loves and her own son and daughter.
Mwasi ya malamu koleka kati na bino, oyo ayokelaka bato mawa, oyo aleki kitoko mpe amonanaka lokola nde matambe na ye enyataka mabele te, akotala na etaleli ya mabe mobali oyo ye alingaka, mwana na ye ya mobali to ya mwasi,
57 She will even secretly eat her the babies she gives birth to and the afterbirth, since she doesn't have anything else because of the siege and suffering your enemy has caused you in all your towns,
mwana oyo awuti kobima na libumu na ye, mpe bana oyo ye moko aboti; pamba te akoluka kolia bango na nkuku, na tango oyo banguna na bino bakozingela bino, mpe na tango ya pasi oyo banguna na bino bakomonisa bino kati na bingumba na bino.
58 If you don't carefully observe all these laws written down in this book so that you may show respect for this glorious and awesome Lord your God,
Tango bosaleli te maloba nyonso ya mibeko oyo ekomami na buku oyo mpe botosi te Kombo ya lokumu mpe ya somo, Yawe, Nzambe na bino;
59 he will bring down on you and your descendants unbelievable disasters, intense and long-lasting diseases, and terrible and incurable sicknesses.
Yawe akotindela bino mpe bakitani na bino bitumbu ya somo: bapota minene oyo esilaka te mpe bokono ya makasi oyo esilaka te.
60 He will give you all the diseases you were terrified of in Egypt, and they will stay with you.
Akotindela bino bitumbu nyonso ya Ejipito, oyo bozalaki kobanga mpe yango ekotingama na bino.
61 The Lord will also give you every sickness and disease, even those not recorded in this Book of the Law, until you are destroyed.
Yawe akotindela bino lisusu lolenge nyonso ya bokono mpe bapota oyo ekomami te kati na buku oyo ya Mobeko, kino bokobebisama.
62 You who grew as numerous as the stars in the sky will end up as only a few, because you would not obey what Lord your God told you.
Bino oyo bozalaki ebele lokola minzoto na likolo, bokotikala kaka moke; pamba te botosaki te Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
63 In the same way as he wanted to make you prosperous and increase in number, so now he will wipe you out and destroy you. You will be uprooted from the country you are going in to own.
Ndenge kaka Yawe asepelaki kosalela bino bolamu mpe mpo na kokomisa bino ebele, ndenge wana mpe akosepela koboma bino mpe kobebisa bino; akopikola bino na mokili oyo bozali kokota mpo na kozwa yango.
64 The Lord will scatter you among the nations all over the earth, and there you will worship other gods, gods made of wood and stone, which you and your fathers had never heard of.
Boye, Yawe akopanza bino kati na bikolo nyonso ya mokili mobimba. Kuna bokogumbamela banzambe mosusu: banzambe ya nzete mpe ya mabanga oyo bino mpe bakoko na bino boyebaki te.
65 You won't find any place to rest among those nations, no place of your own. The Lord will make you anxious, with failing eyesight and a mind full of despair.
Kati na bikolo wana, bokozala na kimia te, bokozala na esika te ya kopemisa matambe ya makolo na bino. Kuna Yawe akokomisa bino motema likolo-likolo, miso elemba mpe nzoto elemba.
66 You will see your life hanging in the balance as you doubt. You will be afraid day and night, terrified you won't survive.
Bokowumela na bomoi oyo ezanga elikya, oyo etonda na kobanga, butu mpe moyi, mpe bokoyeba te ndenge nini bomoi na bino ekosuka.
67 In the morning you'll say, “I wish it was evening!” and in the evening you'll say, “I wish it was morning!” because you're so frightened by the terrifying things you see.
Na tongo, bokoloba: « Pokwa ekokoma tango nini? » Mpe na pokwa, bokoloba: « Tongo ekotana tango nini? » Pamba te somo ekotonda na mitema na bino mpo na makambo nyonso oyo miso ekomona.
68 The Lord will send you back to Egypt in ships to a place that I said you weren't ever meant to see again. You will put yourselves on sale there to your enemies as male and female slaves, but nobody will want to buy you.
Yawe Nzambe akozongisa bino na bamasuwa na Ejipito, na mokili oyo nalobaki na bino ete bokomona yango lisusu te. Mpe kuna, bokomiteka bino moko epai ya banguna na bino lokola bawumbu ya mibali mpe ya basi, kasi moto moko te akosomba bino.
