Leviticus 1
1 And the Lord called Moses again and spoke to him out of the tabernacle of witness, saying, Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them,
Yawe abengaki Moyize mpe ayebisaki ye, wuta na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani:
2 If [any] man of you shall bring gifts to the Lord, you shall bring your gifts of the cattle and of the oxen and of the sheep.
« Yebisa bana ya Isalaele: ‹ Soki moko kati na bino alingi kobonza nyama lokola mbeka epai na Yawe, asengeli komema nyama oyo azwi kati na bangombe, bantaba mpe bameme.
3 If his gift be a whole burnt offering, he shall bring an unblemished male of the herd to the door of the tabernacle of witness, he shall bring it as acceptable before the Lord.
Soki azali kobonza ngombe lokola mbeka ya kotumba, amema nde oyo ezangi mbeba. Bongo akobonza yango na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpo ete Yawe andima yango.
4 And he shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering as a thing acceptable for him, to make atonement for him.
Moto oyo akobonza yango akotia loboko na ye na moto ya mbeka. Mbeka yango ekondimama lokola mbeka mpo na bolimbisi masumu ya moto oyo abonzi yango.
5 And they shall kill the calf before the Lord; and the sons of Aaron the priests shall bring the blood, and they shall pour the blood round about on the altar, which [is] at the doors of the tabernacle of witness.
Akokata kingo ya ngombe liboso ya Yawe, bongo bakitani ya Aron, Banganga-Nzambe, bakozwa makila na yango mpe bakosopa yango na bangambo nyonso ya etumbelo oyo ezali na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.
6 And having flayed the whole burnt offering, they shall divide it by its limbs.
Bakolongola poso ya mbeka yango mpe bakokata yango na biteni.
7 And the sons of Aaron the priests shall put fire on the altar, and shall pile wood on the fire.
Sima, bakitani ya Nganga-Nzambe Aron bakopelisa moto na etumbelo mpe bakotanda bakoni likolo ya moto.
8 And the sons of Aaron the priests shall pile up the divided parts, and the head, and the fat on the wood on the fire, [the wood] which is on the altar.
Bana mibali ya Aron, Banganga-Nzambe, bakotia lisusu biteni ya ngombe, moto mpe biteni ya mafuta, na likolo ya bakoni oyo ezali kopela na etumbelo.
9 And the entrails and the feet they shall wash in water, and the priests shall put all on the altar: it is a burnt offering, a sacrifice, a smell of sweet savor to the Lord.
Bakosukola na mayi biloko na yango ya kati mpe makolo na yango; sima, Nganga-Nzambe akotumba nyonso na etumbelo. Ezali mbeka ya kotumba, likabo bazikisa na moto, oyo solo kitoko na yango ekosepelisa Yawe.
10 And if his gift [be] of the sheep to the Lord, or of the lambs, or of the kids for whole burnt offerings, he shall bring it a male without blemish.
Soki ezali nyama ya moke nde azali kobonza lokola mbeka ya kotumba, akomema mwana ntaba to mwana meme ya mobali oyo ezanga mbeba.
11 And he shall lay his hand on its head; and they shall kill it by the side of the altar, toward the north before the Lord, and the sons of Aaron the priests shall pour its blood on the altar round about.
Akokata yango kingo liboso ya Yawe, na ngambo ya nor ya etumbelo. Bakitani ya Nganga-Nzambe Aron basengeli kosopa makila na yango na bangambo nyonso ya etumbelo.
12 And they shall divide it by its limbs, and its head and its fat, and the priests shall pile them up on the wood which is on the fire, on the altar.
Akokata-kata mbeka yango na biteni; bongo Nganga-Nzambe akobongisa yango: akotia moto mpe biteni ya mafuta likolo ya bakoni oyo ezali kopela moto na etumbelo;
13 And they shall wash the entrails and the feet with water, and the priest shall bring all the [parts] and put them on the altar: it is a burnt offering, a sacrifice, a smell of sweet savor to the Lord.
akosukola na mayi biloko ya kati mpe makolo. Sima, Nganga-Nzambe akomema nyonso mpe akotumba yango na etumbelo. Ezali mbeka ya kotumba, likabo bazikisa na moto, oyo solo kitoko na yango ekosepelisa Yawe.
14 And if he bring his gift, a burnt offering to the Lord, of birds, then shall he bring his gift of doves or pigeons.
Kasi soki ezali ndeke nde azali kobonzela Yawe lokola likabo ya kotumba, akomema ebenga ya zamba to mwana ebenga ya mboka.
15 And the priest shall bring it to the altar, and shall wring off its head; and the priest shall put it on the altar, and shall wring out the blood at the bottom of the altar.
Nganga-Nzambe akomema yango na etumbelo, akokata yango moto, akotumba moto yango na etumbelo mpe akosopa makila na yango zingazinga ya etumbelo.
16 And he shall take away the crop with the feathers, and shall cast it forth by the altar toward the east to the place of the ashes.
Akolongola eloko oyo ezalaka na kingo mpe bansala na yango nyonso; akobwaka yango na ngambo ya este ya etumbelo, na esika oyo batiaka putulu ya moto.
17 And he shall break it off from the wings and shall not separate it, and the priest shall put it on the altar on the wood which is on the fire: it is a burnt offering, a sacrifice, a sweet smelling savor to the Lord.
Sima, akofungola ndeke na kati-kati ya mapapu; kasi akokata mapapu yango te. Bongo Nganga-Nzambe akotumba yango likolo ya bakoni oyo ezali kopela moto na etumbelo. Ezali mbeka ya kotumba, likabo bazikisa na moto, oyo solo kitoko na yango ekosepelisa Yawe.
