Deuteronomy 7
1 When the Lord thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possesse it, and shall roote out many nations before thee: the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hiuites, and the Iebusites, seuen nations greater and mightier then thou,
Tango Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akokotisa yo na mokili oyo ozali kokende mpo na kozwa yango lokola libula mpe tango akobengana liboso na yo bikolo ebele—bato ya Iti, ya Girigazi, ya Amori, ya Kanana, ya Perizi, ya Evi mpe ya Yebusi, bikolo sambo oyo eleki yo na motango ya bato mpe na makasi—
2 And the Lord thy God shall giue them before thee, then thou shalt smite them: thou shalt vtterly destroy them: thou shalt make no couenant with them, nor haue compassion on them,
mpe tango Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akokaba bango na maboko na yo, mpe tango okolonga bango, okobebisa bango nyonso mpe okotika ata ndambo te; okosala ata boyokani moko te elongo na bango; koyokela bango mawa te.
3 Neither shalt thou make marriages with them, neither giue thy daughter vnto his sonne, nor take his daughter vnto thy sonne.
Okosangana ata moke te na bango na nzela ya libala, okopesa te na libala bana na yo ya basi epai ya bana na bango ya mibali, mpe okozwa te na libala bana na bango ya basi mpo na bana na yo ya mibali;
4 For they wil cause thy sonne to turne away from me, and to serue other gods: then will the wrath of the Lord waxe hote against you and destroy thee suddenly.
noki te, bakopengwisa bana na yo ya mibali na miso na Ngai mpo ete basalela Ngai lisusu te kasi basalela banzambe mosusu, bongo Yawe akosilikela bino mpe akobebisa yo noki.
5 But thus ye shall deale with them, Ye shall ouerthrowe their altars, and breake downe their pillars, and ye shall cut downe their groues, and burne their grauen images with fire.
Tala makambo oyo bosengeli kosala bango: bokokweyisa bitumbelo na bango, bokopanza bikeko na bango, bokobuka makonzi ya nzambe mwasi Ashera mpe bokotumba na moto banzambe na bango ya bikeko,
6 For thou art an holy people vnto the Lord thy God, the Lord thy God hath chosen thee, to be a precious people vnto himselfe, aboue all people that are vpon the earth.
pamba te bozali libota ya bule mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na bino. Yawe, Nzambe na bino, aponaki bino kati na bato nyonso oyo bazali na mokili mpo ete bozala bato na Ye, bozwi na Ye moko penza.
7 The Lord did not set his loue vpon you, nor chose you, because ye were more in number then any people: for ye were the fewest of all people:
Ezali te mpo ete bozalaki mingi koleka bato mosusu nde Yawe alakisaki bino bolingo na Ye, bozalaki kutu moke koleka bato nyonso.
8 But because the Lord loued you, and because hee would keepe the othe which hee had sworne vnto your fathers, the Lord hath brought you out by a mightie hand, and deliuered you out of the house of bondage from the hand of Pharaoh King of Egypt,
Kasi ezali mpo ete Yawe alingaka bino mpe abatelaka ndayi oyo alapaki epai ya bakoko na bino. Yango wana, na loboko na Ye ya nguya, Yawe abimisaki bino mpe asikolaki bino na mokili ya bowumbu, na maboko ya Faraon, mokonzi ya Ejipito.
9 That thou mayest knowe, that the Lord thy God, he is God, the faithfull God which keepeth couenant and mercie vnto them that loue him and keepe his commandements, euen to a thousand generations,
Boye yeba ete Yawe, Nzambe na yo, azali Nzambe moko kaka ya solo; azali Nzambe ya boyengebene, abatelaka boyokani mpe bolingo na Ye kino na molongo ya nkoto ya bakitani oyo balingaka Ye mpe babatelaka mibeko na Ye.
10 And rewardeth them to their face that hate him, to bring them to destruction: he wil not deferre to reward him that hateth him, to his face.
Kasi azelaka te kopesa etumbu na moto oyo ayinaka Ye mpe abomaka ye mbala moko.
11 Keepe thou therefore the commandements, and the ordinances, and the lawes, which I commaund thee this day to doe them.
Yango wana, bosala keba mpo na kosalela mitindo, bikateli mpe mibeko oyo napesi bino lelo.
12 For if ye hearken vnto these lawes, and obserue and doe them, then the Lord thy God shall keepe with thee the couenant, and the mercie which he sware vnto thy fathers.
Soki bokosala keba na mibeko oyo mpe bokosalela yango malamu, Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akobatela bolingo mpe boyokani na Ye elongo na bino ndenge alapaki ndayi epai ya bakoko na bino.
13 And he wil loue thee, and blesse thee, and multiplie thee: he will also blesse the fruite of thy wombe, and the fruite of thy land, thy corne and thy wine, and thine oyle and the increase of thy kine, and the flockes of thy sheepe in the land, which he sware vnto thy fathers to giue thee.
Akolinga bino mpe akopambola bino, akokomisa bino ebele, akopambola mabota na bino, mbuma ya mabele na bino: milona na bino, vino ya sika mpe mafuta; akopambola bitonga ya bangombe na bino, bameme na bino mpe bantaba na bino kati na mokili oyo alapaki ndayi epai ya bakoko na bino ete akopesa bino yango.
14 Thou shalt be blessed aboue all people: there shall be neither male nor female barren among you, nor among your cattell.
Bokopambolama koleka bato nyonso. Mobali moko te to mwasi moko te akozanga bana, mpe ebwele na yo moko te ekozanga bana.
15 Moreouer, the Lord will take away from thee all infirmities, and will put none of the euill diseases of Egypt (which thou knowest) vpon thee, but wil send them vpon all that hate thee.
Yawe akobatela yo na bokono nyonso, akobwakela yo ata bokono moko te oyo yo oyebaki te na Ejipito, kasi akokweyisa yango likolo ya bayini na yo.
16 Thou shalt therefore consume all people which the Lord thy God shall giue thee: thine eye shall not spare them, neither shalt thou serue their gods, for that shalbe thy destruction.
Okoboma bato nyonso oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akokaba na maboko na yo; okoyokela bango mawa te. Kosalela banzambe na bango te mpo ete yango ekozala motambo mpo na yo.
17 If thou say in thine heart, These nations are moe then I, how can I cast them out?
Tango mosusu okomilobela: « Bikolo oyo ezali makasi koleka biso, ndenge nini tokolonga kobengana yango? »
18 Thou shalt not feare them, but remember what the Lord thy God did vnto Pharaoh, and vnto all Egypt:
Te! Kobanga yango soki moke te! Kanisa malamu makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, asalaki Faraon mpe Ejipito mobimba.
19 The great tentations which thine eyes sawe, and the signes and wonders, and the mighty hand and stretched out arme, whereby the Lord thy God brought thee out: so shall the Lord thy God do vnto all ye people, whose face thou fearest.
Omonaki na miso na yo komekama makasi, bilembo ya kokamwa mpe bikamwa, loboko ya nguya mpe loboko esembolama oyo na nzela na yango Yawe, Nzambe na yo, abimisaki yo na Ejipito. Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akosala ndenge moko epai ya bato oyo ozali kobanga.
20 Moreouer, the Lord thy God will send hornets among them vntil they that are left, and hide themselues from thee, be destroyed.
Mpe kutu, Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akotindela bango banzoyi ya minene kino tango bato oyo bakotikala mpe bakobombama liboso na yo bakokufa.
21 Thou shalt not feare them: for the Lord thy God is among you, a God mightie and dreadful.
Kolenga te liboso na bango, pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na yo, oyo azali kati na yo, azali Nzambe Monene mpe ya somo.
22 And the Lord thy God wil roote out these nations before thee by little and little: thou mayest not consume them at once, least the beasts of the fielde increase vpon thee.
Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akobengana moke-moke bikolo oyo ezali liboso na yo; okokoka te kosilisa bango na mbala moko, noki te banyama mabe ekokoma ebele zingazinga na yo.
23 But the Lord thy God shall giue them before thee, and shall destroy them with a mightie destruction, vntill they be brought to naught.
Kasi Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akokaba bango na maboko na yo, akotia bango noki na mobulu monene kino bakobebisama.
24 And he shall deliuer their Kings into thine hand, and thou shalt destroy their name from vnder heauen: there shall no man be able to stand before thee, vntill thou hast destroyed them.
Yawe akokaba bakonzi na bango na maboko na yo, mpe okolimwisa bakombo na bango na mokili; moko te akokoka kotelemela yo, okobebisa bango.
25 The grauen images of their gods shall ye burne with fire, and couet not the siluer and golde, that is on them, nor take it vnto thee, least thou be snared therewith: for it is an abomination before the Lord thy God.
Okotumba na moto banzambe na bango ya bikeko. Kolula te mpe kozwa te palata mpe wolo oyo ezali na likolo na yango, ekoki kozala motambo mpo na yo; pamba te ezali nkele na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na yo.
26 Bring not therefore abomination into thine house, lest, thou be accursed like it, but vtterly abhorre it, and count it most abominable: for it is accursed.
Kokotisa te mpe kolinga te eloko ya mbindo kati na ndako na yo. Okotia yango pembeni mpo na kobebisa yango nyonso. Zwa yango lokola eloko ya nkele mpe ya mbindo, pamba te etiami pembeni mpo na kobebisama.
