Leviticus 25
1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses in mount Sinai, saying:
Yawe alobaki na Moyize na ngomba Sinai:
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: When ye come into the land which I give you, then shall the land keep a sabbath unto the LORD.
« Yebisa bana ya Isalaele mpe loba na bango: ‹ Tango bokokota na mokili oyo nakopesa bino; ezala mabele esengeli kopema, yango ekozala Saba mpo na Yawe.
3 Six years thou shalt sow thy field, and six years thou shalt prune thy vineyard, and gather in the produce thereof.
Mibu motoba, bokolona bilanga na bino mpe mibu motoba, bokobongisa bilanga na bino ya vino mpe bokobuka bambuma na yango.
4 But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath of solemn rest for the land, a sabbath unto the LORD; thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard.
Kasi na mobu ya sambo, mabele esengeli kozala na bopemi, ekozala mobu ya Saba mpo na Yawe. Bokolona bilanga na bino te mpe bokobongisa bilanga na bino ya vino te, mabele esengeli kozala na Saba mpo na Yawe.
5 That which groweth of itself of thy harvest thou shalt not reap, and the grapes of thy undressed vine thou shalt not gather; it shall be a year of solemn rest for the land.
Bokoki kobuka te bambuma oyo ebotaki yango moko na mbala eleki to kobuka bambuma ya vino na elanga oyo babongisa te; ekozala mobu ya bopemi mpo na mabele.
6 And the sabbath-produce of the land shall be for food for you: for thee, and for thy servant and for thy maid, and for thy hired servant and for the settler by thy side that sojourn with thee;
Nzokande, biloko oyo mabele ekobota na mobu ya Saba, ekozala bilei na bino: yo, mowumbu na yo ya mobali, mwasi mowumbu na yo, mwana mosala na yo mpe mopaya oyo azali kovanda kati na yo
7 and for thy cattle, and for the beasts that are in thy land, shall all the increase thereof be for food.
elongo na banyama ya mboka mpe ya zamba oyo bazali kati na mokili na bino. Bosengeli kolia biloko nyonso oyo mabele ekobota.
8 And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times seven years; and there shall be unto thee the days of seven sabbaths of years, even forty and nine years.
Bokotanga mibu sambo ya Saba, mbala sambo, na mibu sambo; mpe mibu sambo ya Saba ekosala mibu tuku minei na libwa.
9 Then shalt thou make proclamation with the blast of the horn on the tenth day of the seventh month; in the day of atonement shall ye make proclamation with the horn throughout all your land.
Bongo na sima, na mokolo ya zomi, na sanza ya sambo, na mokolo ya bolimbisi masumu, bokobeta kelelo na bisika nyonso kati na mokili na bino mobimba.
10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout the land unto all the inhabitants thereof; it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.
Bokobulisa mobu ya tuku mitano mpe bokosakola, kati na mokili mobimba, kokangolama ya bavandi na yango nyonso. Ekozala mpo na bino mobu ya kosepela kokangolama na bino; moto moko na moko kati na bino akozonga na mabele na ye, na libota na ye.
11 A jubilee shall that fiftieth year be unto you; ye shall not sow, neither reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of the undressed vines.
Mobu ya tuku mitano ekozala mobu ya kosepela kokangolama na bino: bokolona te, bokobuka te biloko oyo bilanga ekobota yango moko, mpe bokobuka te bambuma ya vino ya elanga oyo babongisa te.
12 For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy unto you; ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field.
Pamba te ezali mobu ya kosepela kokangolama na bino, mpe esengeli kozala bule mpo na bino. Bokolia kaka bambuma ya bilanga.
13 In this year of jubilee ye shall return every man unto his possession.
Na mobu yango ya kosepela kokangolama na bino, moto nyonso kati na bino akozonga na mabele na ye.
14 And if thou sell aught unto thy neighbour, or buy of thy neighbour's hand, ye shall not wrong one another.
Soki bozali koteka mabele epai ya ndeko na bino to soki bozali kosomba eloko songolo epai na ye, wana bozali bana mboka moko, tika ete moko te kati na bino akosa ndeko na ye.
15 According to the number of years after the jubilee thou shalt buy of thy neighbour, and according unto the number of years of the crops he shall sell unto thee.
Okosomba epai ya ndeko na yo ya mboka, na motuya ya mbongo oyo bakokata kolanda motango ya mibu oyo eleki wuta mobu ya suka oyo bosepelaki kokangolama na bino; mpe akotekela yo na motuya ya mbongo oyo ekokatama kolanda motango ya mibu oyo ekotikala, mibu ya kobuka bambuma, kino bokoma na mobu oyo ekolanda, mobu ya kosepela kokangolama na bino.
16 According to the multitude of the years thou shalt increase the price thereof, and according to the fewness of the years thou shalt diminish the price of it; for the number of crops doth he sell unto thee.
Soki mibu etikali ebele, bosengeli komatisa motuya; mpe soki mibu ezali moke, bosengeli kokitisa motuya, pamba te ezali motango ya mibu ya kobuka bambuma nde etekamaka: yango nde bakotekela yo.
17 And ye shall not wrong one another; but thou shalt fear thy God; for I am the LORD your God.
Tika ete moko te akosa moninga, kasi banga Nzambe na yo; Ngai nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
18 Wherefore ye shall do My statutes, and keep Mine ordinances and do them; and ye shall dwell in the land in safety.
Bosalela bikateli na Ngai mpe botosa mibeko na Ngai, bongo bokowumela na kimia kati na mokili;
19 And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat until ye have enough, and dwell therein in safety.
mpe mabele ekobota mbuma na yango, bokolia mpe bokotonda mpe bokovanda na kimia.
20 And if ye shall say: 'What shall we eat the seventh year? behold, we may not sow, nor gather in our increase';
Bokoki kotuna: ‘Tokolia nini na mobu ya sambo soki toloni te mpe tobuki te bambuma na biso?’
21 then I will command My blessing upon you in the sixth year, and it shall bring forth produce for the three years.
Nakotindela bino mapamboli mingi na mobu ya motoba mpo ete mabele ekoka kobota bambuma mingi oyo bokoki kolia mibu misato.
22 And ye shall sow the eighth year, and eat of the produce, the old store; until the ninth year, until her produce come in, ye shall eat the old store.
Wana bokolona na mobu ya mwambe, bokolia nanu bambuma ya kala mpe bokokoba kolia yango kino bokobuka bambuma ya mobu ya libwa.
23 And the land shall not be sold in perpetuity; for the land is Mine; for ye are strangers and settlers with Me.
Bokoki te koteka mabele mpo na libela, pamba te mabele ezali ya Ngai, mpe bino bozali bapaya mpe baleki nzela.
24 And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land.
Kati na mokili oyo bokozwa lokola libula, bosengeli kondima ete moto asikola mabele na ye.
25 If thy brother be waxen poor, and sell some of his possession, then shall his kinsman that is next unto him come, and shall redeem that which his brother hath sold.
Soki mwana mboka moko kati na bino akomi mobola mpe ateki mabele na ye, moto moko ya libota na ye ya pembeni akoki koya kosikola oyo mwana mboka wana atekaki.
26 And if a man have no one to redeem it, and he be waxen rich and find sufficient means to redeem it;
Soki moto wana azali na ndeko te oyo akoki kosikola yango mpo na ye; mpe ye moko akomi na bozwi bongo azwi makoki ya kosikola yango;
27 then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; and he shall return unto his possession.
asengeli kotanga motango ya mibu wuta atekaki mabele na ye mpe akozongisa motuya ya mibu oyo etikali epai ya moto oyo asombaki yango. Boye, akoki kozongela mabele na ye.
28 But if he have not sufficient means to get it back for himself, then that which he hath sold shall remain in the hand of him that hath bought it until the year of jubilee; and in the jubilee it shall go out, and he shall return unto his possession.
Soki azwaki te makoki ya kosikola yango, mabele oyo atekaki ekotikala na maboko ya moto oyo asombaki yango kino na mobu ya kosepela kokangolama na ye. Ekozala na mobu yango nde mabele na ye ekozongela ye mpe akokoma lisusu nkolo na yango.
29 And if a man sell a dwelling-house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; for a full year shall he have the right of redemption.
Soki moto ateki ndako kati na engumba oyo bazingela na bamir, azali na makoki ya kosikola yango kaka mpo na mobu moko wuta mokolo oyo atekaki yango. Ezali kaka na tango wana nde akoki kosikola yango.
30 And if it be not redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city shall be made sure in perpetuity to him that bought it, throughout his generations; it shall not go out in the jubilee.
Soki asikoli yango te liboso ete mobu mobimba eleka, ndako oyo ezali kati na engumba oyo bazingela na bamir ekotikala libela mpo na moto oyo asombaki yango mpe mpo na bakitani na ye; bakoki te kozongisa yango na mobu ya kosepela kokangolama.
31 But the houses of the villages which have no wall round about them shall be reckoned with the fields of the country; they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubilee.
Kasi bandako oyo ezali kati na bamboka oyo bazingela te na bamir pembeni-pembeni, ekozala lokola bilanga ya mboka. Bakoki kosikola yango, mpe ekozonga epai na nkolo na yango na mobu ya kosepela kokangolama.
32 But as for the cities of the Levites, the houses of the cities of their possession, the Levites shall have a perpetual right of redemption.
Balevi bazali tango nyonso na makoki ya kosikola bandako na bango, oyo ezali kati na bingumba ya Balevi.
33 And if a man purchase of the Levites, then the house that was sold in the city of his possession, shall go out in the jubilee; for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.
Soki Molevi ateki ndako na ye kati na bingumba ya Balevi, moto oyo asombi yango akozongisela ye yango na mobu ya kosepela kokangolama; pamba te bandako oyo ezali kati na bingumba ya Balevi ezali libula na bango ya libela kati na bana ya Isalaele.
34 But the fields of the open land about their cities may not be sold; for that is their perpetual possession.
Kasi bilanga oyo ezali zingazinga ya bingumba ya Balevi, bakoki koteka yango te: ezali libula na bango mpo na libela.
35 And if thy brother be waxen poor, and his means fail with thee; then thou shalt uphold him: as a stranger and a settler shall he live with thee.
Soki moto oyo azali pembeni na yo akomi mobola mpe azali lisusu te na makoki ya komisunga; okosunga ye, azala mopaya to moleki nzela; mpo ete azala malamu pembeni na yo.
36 Take thou no interest of him or increase; but fear thy God; that thy brother may live with thee.
Okoki te kozwa mileki na maboko na ye; kasi banga Nzambe na yo, mpo ete mwana mboka na yo akoka kozala malamu pembeni na yo.
37 Thou shalt not give him thy money upon interest, nor give him thy victuals for increase.
Soki odefisi ye mbongo, okosenga mileki te na oyo odefisi ye; mpe soki odefisi ye bilei, okosenga te koleka oyo opesi.
38 I am the LORD your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, to be your God.
Ngai nazali Yawe, Nzambe na yo, oyo abimisaki yo na Ejipito; mpo na kopesa yo mokili ya Kanana, mpe na kozala Nzambe na yo.
39 And if thy brother be waxen poor with thee, and sell himself unto thee, thou shalt not make him to serve as a bondservant.
Soki ndeko na yo, mwana mboka, akomi mobola mpe amiteki epai na yo, kopesa ye te misala na makasi lokola mowumbu.
40 As a hired servant, and as a settler, he shall be with thee; he shall serve with thee unto the year of jubilee.
Okozwa ye lokola moto na yo ya mosala to lokola moleki nzela oyo azali kati na bino; akosalela yo kino na mobu ya kosepela kokangolama;
41 Then shall he go out from thee, he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.
mpe na sima, akozwa bonsomi elongo na bana na ye, akozonga na etuka na ye mpe akozongela mabele ya batata na ye.
42 For they are My servants, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt; they shall not be sold as bondmen.
Pamba te, bana ya Isalaele bazali bawumbu na Ngai, oyo nabimisaki na Ejipito; bakoki te koteka bango lokola bawumbu.
43 Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt fear thy God.
Kokonza bango te na makasi, kasi banga Nzambe na yo.
44 And as for thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, whom thou mayest have: of the nations that are round about you, of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids.
Okozwa bawumbu na yo ya mibali mpe basi bawumbu na yo kati na bikolo oyo ezingeli yo; okosomba bango kaka na bikolo yango.
45 Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them may ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they have begotten in your land; and they may be your possession.
Okoki mpe kosomba bapaya oyo bazali kovanda kati na mokili na yo, mpe bato ya bituka na bango, oyo babotami kati na mokili na yo; boye bakokoma bawumbu na yo.
46 And ye may make them an inheritance for your children after you, to hold for a possession: of them may ye take your bondmen for ever; but over your brethren the children of Israel ye shall not rule, one over another, with rigour.
Okoki kotika bango epai ya bana na yo lokola libula mpo ete sima na yo bakoma bawumbu na bango mpo na libela; kasi kokonza te na makasi bandeko na yo, bana ya Isalaele.
47 And if a stranger who is a settler with thee be waxen rich, and thy brother be waxen poor beside him, and sell himself unto the stranger who is a settler with thee, or to the offshoot of a stranger's family,
Soki mopaya to moleki nzela moko kati na mokili na yo akomi na bozwi mpe moko kati na bandeko na yo, mwana mboka, akomi mobola; bongo amiteki epai ya mopaya to moleki nzela yango to epai ya moto moko ya libota na ye;
48 after that he is sold he may be redeemed; one of his brethren may redeem him;
ndeko na yo, mwana mboka, akoki kosikolama sima na ye komiteka: moto moko kati na bandeko na ye akoki kosikola ye.
49 or his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him, or any that is nigh of kin unto him of his family may redeem him; or if he be waxen rich, he may redeem himself.
Soki ndeko azali te mpo na kosikola ye, tata kulutu to tata leki na ye to bana mibali ya tata kulutu to ya tata leki na ye to ndeko na ye mosusu ya libota ya botata akoki kosikola ye. Nzokande soki akomi na makoki, akoki mpe komisikola ye moko.
50 And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he sold himself to him unto the year of jubilee; and the price of his sale shall be according unto the number of years; according to the time of a hired servant shall he be with him.
Boye, ye elongo na moto oyo asombaki ye, bakotanga mibu oyo eleki wuta na mobu oyo amitekaki kino na mobu ya kosepela kokangolama; bakokata motuya ya lisiko na ye kolanda motango ya mibu ndenge ezali lifuti ya moto ya mosala.
51 If there be yet many years, according unto them he shall give back the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for.
Soki etikali mibu ebele, asengeli kofuta mpo na kosikolama na ye, mbongo kolanda talo oyo basombaki ye.
52 And if there remain but few years unto the year of jubilee, then he shall reckon with him; according unto his years shall he give back the price of his redemption.
Soki etikalaki mibu moke kino na mobu ya kosepela kokangolama, akotanga mibu yango mpe akofuta mpo na lisiko na ye kolanda motango ya mibu oyo etikali.
53 As a servant hired year by year shall he be with him; he shall not rule with rigour over him in thy sight.
Na mibu nyonso oyo akosala epai ya mosombi na ye, bakozwa ye lokola moto ya mosala; okotika te ete mosombi na ye akonza ye na makasi.
54 And if he be not redeemed by any of these means, then he shall go out in the year of jubilee, he, and his children with him.
Ata soki asikolami te na moko kati na banzela oyo, ye elongo na bana na ye basengeli kozwa bonsomi na mobu ya kosepela kokangolama.
55 For unto Me the children of Israel are servants; they are My servants whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
Pamba te, bana ya Isalaele bazali bawumbu na Ngai, oyo nabimisaki na Ejipito. Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
