< Leviticus 21 >
1 And the Lord said vnto Moses, Speake vnto the Priestes the sonnes of Aaron, and say vnto them, Let none be defiled by the dead among his people,
Yawe ayebisaki Moyize: « Loba na Banganga-Nzambe, bana mibali ya Aron: ‹ Nganga-Nzambe akoki te komikomisa mbindo na kosimba ebembe ya moto moko kati na libota na ye,
2 But by his kinseman that is neere vnto him: to wit, by his mother, or by his father, or by his sonne, or by his daughter, or by his brother,
longola kaka soki ezali ebembe ya mama na ye, ya tata na ye, ya mwana na ye ya mobali to ya mwana na ye ya mwasi, ya ndeko na ye ya mobali.
3 Or by his sister a maid, that is neere vnto him, which hath not had a husband: for her he may lament.
Mpo na ndeko na ye ya mwasi oyo ayebi nanu nzoto ya mibali te, oyo azali nanu na maboko na ye awa abali nanu te; Nganga-Nzambe akoki komikomisa mbindo.
4 He shall not lament for the Prince among his people, to pollute him selfe.
Lokola azali mokambi kati na bato na ye, akoki te komikomisa mbindo; noki te akobebisa bosantu mpe lokumu na ye.
5 They shall not make balde partes vpon their head, nor shaue off the locks of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
Banganga-Nzambe bakoki te komikokola suki ya moto, kokata mandefu na bapembeni to kokata nzoloko na banzoto na bango.
6 They shalbe holy vnto their God, and not pollute the name of their God: for the sacrifices of the Lord made by fire, and the bread of their God they doe offer: therefore they shalbe holie.
Nzokande basengeli kozala bato bamibulisi mpo na mosala na Ngai Nzambe na bango. Boye, basengeli te kobebisa lokumu mpe bosantu ya Kombo ya Nzambe na bango; pamba te ezali bango nde babonzaka makabo bazikisa na moto mpo na Yawe, bilei ya Nzambe na bango. Mpo na yango, basengeli kozala bule mpo na Yawe.
7 They shall not take to wife an whore, or one polluted, neither shall they marrie a woman diuorced from her husband: for such one is holy vnto his God.
Banganga-Nzambe basengeli te kobala basi oyo basalaka kindumba to ba-oyo babebisa lokumu na bango na nzela ya mibali mosusu to ba-oyo babengana bango na libala. Pamba te, Banganga-Nzambe bazali basantu oyo babulisami mpo na mosala na Ngai Nzambe na bango.
8 Thou shalt sanctifie him therefore, for he offereth the bread of thy God: he shall be holy vnto thee: for I the Lord, which sanctifie you, am holy.
Bato nyonso ya Isalaele basengeli komona bango lokola basantu, pamba te babonzaka bilei ya Nzambe na bino. Bomona bango basantu mpo ete Ngai Yawe oyo naponi Isalaele mpe nakomisi bino basantu, nazali Mosantu.
9 If a Priestes daughter fall to play the whore, she polluteth her father: therefore shall she be burnt with fire.
Mwana mwasi ya Nganga-Nzambe oyo abebisi lokumu na ye na kosala kindumba asambwisi nde tata na ye; boye esengeli kotumba ye ya bomoi na moto.
10 Also ye hie Priest among his brethren, (vpon whose head the anointing oyle was powred, and hath consecrated his hand to put on the garments) shall not vncouer his head, nor rent his clothes,
Mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe azali na bokonzi likolo ya Banganga-Nzambe mosusu; basopelaki ye mafuta ya epakolami na moto mpo na kobulisa ye, mpe asengeli kolata bilamba ya bonganga-Nzambe. Mpo na yango, asengeli te kopanza suki na ye ya moto to kopasola bilamba na ye na mokolo ya matanga.
11 Neither shall he goe to any dead bodie, nor make him selfe vncleane by his father or by his mother,
Akoki te kopusana pembeni ya ebembe mpe komikomisa mbindo mpo na kufa ya tata na ye to ya mama na ye.
12 Neither shall he goe out of the Sanctuarie, nor pollute the holy place of his God: for the crowne of the anoynting oyle of his God is vpon him: I am the Lord.
Azali na ndingisa te ya kotika Esika ya bule ya Nzambe na ye to kobebisa bosantu na yango, pamba te abulisamaki na nzela ya mafuta ya epakolami ya Nzambe na ye. Nazali Yawe.
13 Also he shall take a maide vnto his wife:
Mokonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe asengeli kobala mwasi oyo ayebi nanu nzoto ya mibali te.
14 But a widowe, or a diuorced woman, or a polluted, or an harlot, these shall he not marrie, but shall take a maide of his owne people to wife:
Akoki kobala te mwasi oyo akufisa mobali, mwasi oyo babengani na libala to mwasi oyo abebisa lokumu na ye na kosala kindumba; kasi akobala kaka, kati na bato na ye, mwasi oyo ayebi nanu nzoto ya mibali te.
15 Neyther shall he defile his seede among his people: for I am the Lord which sanctifie him.
Na bongo, akobebisa te bosantu ya bakitani na ye kati na bato na ye; pamba te ezali Ngai Yawe nde nabulisi ye. › »
16 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Yawe ayebisaki Moyize:
17 Speake vnto Aaron, and say, Whosoeuer of thy seede in their generations hath any blemishes, shall not prease to offer the bread of his God:
« Loba na Aron: ‹ Kati na bana na yo nyonso na milongo oyo ekoya, moto moko te oyo azali na mbeba na nzoto na ye, akoki kopusana mpo na kobonza bilei ya Nzambe na ye.
18 For whosoeuer hath any blemish, shall not come neere: as a man blinde or lame, or that hath a flat nose, or that hath any misshapen member,
Moto moko te oyo azali na mbeba na nzoto akoki kopusana pembeni ya etumbelo: mokufi miso, moto oyo atambolaka tengu-tengu; moto oyo abeba na elongi, na makolo mpe oyo maboko to makolo na ye ekokana te,
19 Or a man that hath a broken foote, or a broken hande,
moto oyo abukana lokolo to loboko,
20 Or is crooke backt, or bleare eyed, or hath a blemish in his eye, or be skiruie, or skabbed, or haue his stones broken.
moto oyo azali na kunki na mokongo to oyo azali penza mokuse; moto oyo azali na liso ekufa, na makwanza, na mapalata to oyo baboma mokongo.
21 None of the seede of Aaron the Priest that hath a blemish, shall come neere to offer the sacrifices of the Lord made by fire, hauing a blemish: he shall not prease to offer the bread of his God.
Kati na bakitani ya Nganga-Nzambe Aron, moko te oyo azali na mbeba na nzoto akopusana pembeni ya etumbelo mpo na kobonza makabo bazikisa na moto mpo na Yawe. Lokola azali na mbeba na nzoto na ye, akoki te kopusana mpo na kobonza bilei ya Nzambe na ye.
22 The bread of his God, euen of the most holie, and of the holy shall he eate:
Akoki na ye kolia bilei nyonso oyo bakobonzela Ngai Nzambe na ye, bilei ya bule mpe bilei oyo eleki bule.
23 But he shall not goe in vnto the vaile, nor come neere the altar, because hee hath a blemish, least he pollute my Sanctuaries: for I am the Lord that sanctifie them.
Kasi mpo na mbeba ya nzoto na ye, akoki te kopusana pembeni ya rido ya Esika ya bule to ya etumbelo, mpo ete abebisa te bosantu ya Esika na Ngai ya bule, pamba te Ngai nazali Yawe, mpe ezali Ngai nde nabulisaki Banganga-Nzambe mpo na mosala na Ngai. › »
24 Thus spake Moses vnto Aaron, and to his sonnes, and to all the children of Israel.
Moyize alobaki makambo oyo epai ya Aron, epai ya bana na ye ya mibali, mpe epai ya bana nyonso ya Isalaele.
