< Exodus 33 >
1 Afterward the Lord sayd vnto Moses, Depart, goe vp from hence, thou, and the people (which thou hast brought vp out of lande of Egypt) vnto the lande which I sware vnto Abraham, to Izhak and to Iaakob, saying, Vnto thy seede will I giue it.
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Kende, longwa na esika oyo elongo na bato oyo obimisaki na Ejipito; kende na mokili oyo nalakaki na ndayi epai ya Abrayami, Izaki mpe Jakobi ete nakopesa yango epai na bana na yo.
2 And I will send an Angel before thee and will cast out the Canaanites, the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, the Hiuites, and the Iebusites:
Nakotinda anjelu liboso na yo, nakobengana bato ya Kanana ya Amori, ya Iti, ya Perizi, ya Evi mpe ya Yebusi.
3 To a lande, I say, that floweth with milke and hony: for I will not goe vp with thee, because thou art a stiffe necked people, least I consume thee in the way.
Bokende na mokili oyo ezali kobimisa miliki mpe mafuta ya nzoyi. Mpo na Ngai, nakotambola elongo na bino te, pamba te bozali batomboki, noki te nakosilisa koboma bino na nzela.
4 And when the people heard this euill tydings, they sorowed, and no man put on his best rayment.
Tango bato bayokaki maloba oyo ya somo, balataki pili, mpe ata moto moko te alataki lisusu biloko ya monzele.
5 (For the Lord had said to Moses, Say vnto the children of Israel, Ye are a stiffe necked people, I wil come suddenly vpon thee, and consume thee: therefore now put thy costly rayment from thee, that I may know what to do vnto thee)
Bongo Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Loba na bana ya Isalaele: « Bozali batomboki; soki natamboli elongo na bino ata mpo na tango moke, nakosilisa koboma bino. Bolongola biloko na bino ya monzele, mpe nakoyebisa bino makambo oyo nakosala bino. »
6 So the children of Israel layed their good raiment from them, after Moses came downe from the mount Horeb.
Bana ya Isalaele balongolaki biloko na bango ya monzele na ngomba Orebi.
7 Then Moses tooke his tabernacle, and pitched it without the host farre off from the hoste, and called it Ohel-moed. And whe any did seeke to the Lord, he went out vnto the Tabernacle of the Congregation, which was without the hoste.
Moyize azwaki ndako ya kapo mpe atelemisaki yango mwa mosika, na libanda ya molako, mpo na bolamu na bango; mpe abengaki yango Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani. Moto nyonso oyo alingaki kokutana na Yawe, asengelaki kokende na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, na libanda ya molako.
8 And when Moses went out vnto the Tabernacle, all the people rose vp, and stood euery man at his tent doore, and looked after Moses, vntil he was gone into the Tabernacle.
Mbala nyonso oyo Moyize azalaki kokende na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, bato nyonso bazalaki kotelema: moko na moko azalaki kotelema na ekuke ya ndako na ye ya kapo mpo na kotala Moyize kino akokota na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.
9 And assoone as Moses was entred into the Tabernacle, the cloudie pillar descended and stood at the doore of the Tabernacle, and the Lord talked with Moses.
Soki Moyize akoti na kati, likonzi ya lipata ezalaki kokita mpe kotelema na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani; bongo Yawe azalaki kosolola na Moyize.
10 Nowe when all the people saw the cloudie pillar stand at the Tabernacle doore, all the people rose vp, and worshipped euery man in his tent doore.
Bato nyonso bazalaki komona likonzi ya lipata kotelema na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani. Boye bazalaki kotelema mpe kofukamela Yawe, moko na moko na ekuke ya ndako na ye ya kapo.
11 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, face to face, as a man speaketh vnto his friende. After he turned againe into the hoste, but his seruant Ioshua the sonne of Nun a yong man, departed not out of the Tabernacle.
Yawe azalaki kosolola na Moyize ndenge moto asololaka na moninga na ye. Wana Moyize azalaki kozonga na molako; Jozue, mwana mobali ya Nuni, elenge oyo azalaki kosunga ye, azalaki kotikala kati na ndako ya kapo.
12 Then Moses sayde vnto the Lord, See, thou sayest vnto me, Leade this people forth, and thou hast not shewed me whom thou wilt sende with mee: thou hast sayde moreouer, I knowe thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight.
Moyize alobaki na Yawe: — Tala, ozali koloba na ngai ete nakamba bato oyo, kasi ozali koyebisa ngai te nani okotinda elongo na ngai. Nzokande Yo nde olobaki na ngai: « Nayebi yo na kombo na yo, » mpe lisusu: « Ozwi ngolu na miso na Ngai. »
13 Nowe therefore, I pray thee, if I haue founde fauour in thy sight, shewe mee nowe thy way, that I may knowe thee, and that I may finde grace in thy sight: consider also that this nation is thy people.
Sik’oyo, soki penza nazwi ngolu na miso na Yo, teya ngai banzela na Yo mpo ete nayeba Yo mpe nazwa ngolu na miso na Yo. Mpe kanisa lisusu ete libota wana bazali bato na Yo.
14 And he answered, My presence shall go with thee, and I will giue thee rest.
Yawe azongisaki: — Ngai moko nakotambola elongo na yo mpe nakopesa yo bopemi.
15 Then he sayd vnto him, If thy presence go not with vs, cary vs not hence.
Moyize azongisaki: — Soki Yo moko okotambola elongo na biso te, kolongola biso te na esika oyo.
16 And wherein nowe shall it be knowen, that I and thy people haue found fauour in thy sight? shall it not be when thou goest with vs? so I, and thy people shall haue preeminence before all the people that are vpon the earth.
Soki otamboli elongo na biso te, ndenge nini bato bakoyeba ete ngai mpe bato na Yo tozwi ngolu na miso na Yo? Ezali nde tango okotambola elongo na biso nde ngai mpe bato na yo tokokesana na bikolo nyonso oyo ezali kati na mokili.
17 And the Lord sayde vnto Moses, I will doe this also that thou hast saide: for thou hast founde grace in my sight, and I knowe thee by name.
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Nakosala makambo nyonso oyo osengi Ngai, pamba te ozwi ngolu na miso na Ngai mpe nayebi yo na kombo na yo.
18 Againe he sayde, I beseech thee, shewe me thy glory.
Moyize azongisaki: — Monisa ngai nkembo na Yo.
19 And he answered, I wil make all my good go before thee, and I wil proclaime the Name of the Lord before thee: for I will shewe mercy to whom I will shewe mercy, and will haue compassion on whom I will haue compassion.
Yawe azongisaki: — Nakolekisa bolamu na Ngai nyonso liboso na yo mpe nakotatola nani oyo nazali liboso na yo; natalisaka ngolu epai ya moto oyo Ngai nasepeli kosalela ngolu, mpe nayokelaka mawa moto oyo Ngai nasepeli koyokela mawa.
20 Furthermore he sayde, Thou canst not see my face, for there shall no man see me, and liue.
Kasi okokoka komona elongi na Ngai te, pamba te moto moko te akoki komona Ngai mpe azala na bomoi.
21 Also the Lord sayd, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand vpon the rocke:
Yawe alobaki lisusu: — Ezali na esika moko awa, pembeni na Ngai, epai wapi okoki kotelema na likolo ya libanga.
22 And while my glory passeth by, I will put thee in a cleft of the rocke, and will couer thee with mine hand whiles I passe by.
Tango nkembo na Ngai ekoleka, nakotia yo kati na lidusu ya libanga mpe nakozipa yo na loboko na Ngai kino nakoleka.
23 After I will take away mine hande, and thou shalt see my backe parts: but my face shall not be seene.
Bongo tango nakolongola loboko na Ngai, okomona Ngai kaka na mokongo; kasi okokoka komona elongi na Ngai te.
