Exodus 16
1 And they journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the sons of Israel come to the wilderness of Sin, which [is] between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month of their going out from the land of Egypt.
Lisanga nyonso ya bana ya Isalaele balongwaki na Elimi mpe bakomaki na esobe ya Tsini, oyo ezali kati ya Elimi mpe ngomba Sinai, na mokolo ya zomi na mitano, na sanza ya mibale sima na kobima na bango na Ejipito.
2 And all the congregation of the sons of Israel murmur against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness;
Lisanga nyonso ya bana ya Isalaele bayimaki-yimaki na tina na Moyize mpe Aron kati na esobe.
3 and the sons of Israel say to them, “Oh that we had died by the hand of YHWH in the land of Egypt, in our sitting by the flesh-pot, in our eating bread to satiety—for you have brought us out to this wilderness to put all this assembly to death with hunger.”
Bana ya Isalaele balobaki na bango: — Ah! Ebongaki kutu loboko na Yawe epamela biso kati na Ejipito, pamba te, kuna, tozalaki kovanda pembeni ya banzungu etonda na misuni; tozalaki kolia mpe kotonda biloko. Kasi bino bomemi biso kati na esobe oyo mpo na koboma lisanga oyo nyonso na nzala!
4 And YHWH says to Moses, “Behold, I am raining bread from the heavens for you—and the people have gone out and gathered the matter of a day in its day—so that I try them whether they walk in My law or not;
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Tala, nakokitisela bino mapa wuta na likolo. Mokolo na mokolo, bato bakobanda kobima mpe kolokota mapa oyo ekoki mpo na kolia mokolo wana. Na nzela wana, nakomeka bango mpo na kotala soki bakobatela to te malako na Ngai.
5 and it has been on the sixth day, that they have prepared that which they bring in, and it has been double above that which they gather day [by] day.”
Na mokolo ya motoba, bakolokota mbala mibale ndambo oyo bazalaki kolokota mpo na mokolo moko mpe bakolamba yango.
6 And Moses says—Aaron also—to all the sons of Israel, “Evening—and you have known that YHWH has brought you out from the land of Egypt;
Moyize mpe Aron balobaki na bana nyonso ya Isalaele: — Na pokwa ya lelo, bokoyeba solo ete ezali Yawe nde abimisaki bino na Ejipito.
7 and morning—and you have seen the glory of YHWH, in His hearing your murmurings against YHWH, and what [are] we, that you murmur against us?”
Boye lobi na tongo, bokomona nkembo na Yawe; pamba te ayoki koyimayima na bino na tina na Ye. Mpo na yango, biso tozali banani mpo ete boyimayima epai na biso?
8 And Moses says, “In YHWH’s giving to you flesh to eat in the evening, and bread in the morning to satiety—in YHWH’s hearing your murmurings, which you are murmuring against Him, and what [are] we? Your murmurings [are] not against us, but against YHWH.”
Moyize alobaki lisusu: — Bokoyeba ete ezali solo Yawe tango akopesa bino misuni ya kolia na pokwa mpe mapa ebele na tongo. Pamba te ayoki koyimayima na bino na tina na Ye. Biso tozali banani? Boyimaki-yimaki na tina na biso te, kasi na tina na Yawe.
9 And Moses says to Aaron, “Say to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, Come near before YHWH, for He has heard your murmurings”;
Boye Moyize alobaki na Aron: — Yebisa lisanga nyonso ya bana ya Isalaele ete bapusana pene ya Yawe mpo ete ayoki koyimayima na bango.
10 and it comes to pass, when Aaron is speaking to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, that they turn toward the wilderness, and behold, the glory of YHWH is seen in the cloud.
Wana Aron azalaki koloba na lisanga nyonso ya bana ya Isalaele, babalolaki miso na bango na ngambo ya esobe, mpe bamonaki nkembo na Yawe kobima na mapata.
11 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
12 “I have heard the murmurings of the sons of Israel; speak to them, saying, Between the evenings you eat flesh, and in the morning you are satisfied [with] bread, and you have known that I [am] your God YHWH.”
— Nayoki koyimayima ya bana ya Isalaele. Yebisa bango: « Na pokwa ya lelo, bokolia misuni; bongo na tongo, bokotonda mana. Boye, bokoyeba solo ete nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino. »
13 And it comes to pass in the evening, that the quail comes up, and covers the camp, and in the morning there has been the lying of dew around the camp,
Kaka na pokwa wana, bakayi eyaki mpe etondisaki molako; mpe na tongo, mamwe ezalaki zingazinga ya molako.
14 and the lying of the dew goes up, and behold, on the face of the wilderness [is] a thin, bare thing, thin as hoarfrost on the earth.
Tango mamwe elimwaki, biloko ya mike-mike penza lokola bambuma ya mike-mike emonanaki na mabele ya esobe, pembe lokola mvula ya pembe.
15 And the sons of Israel see, and say to one another, “What [is] it?” For they have not known what it [is]; and Moses says to them, “It [is] the bread which YHWH has given to you for food.
Tango bana ya Isalaele bamonaki yango, batunanaki bango na bango: — Oyo nini? Pamba te bayebaki te soki ezali nini. Moyize alobaki na bango: — Ezali mapa oyo Yawe apesi bino mpo ete bolia.
16 This [is] the thing which YHWH has commanded: Gather of it, each according to his eating, an omer for the counted head; and the number of your persons, take, each, for those in his tent.”
Tala mibeko oyo Yawe apesi na tina na likambo oyo: « Tika ete moto na moto alokota oyo ekoki mpo na ye kolia, omeri moko mpo na moto moko. Moto na moto akolokota kolanda motango ya bato oyo bazali kati na ndako na ye ya kapo. »
17 And the sons of Israel do so, and they gather, he who is [gathering] much, and he who is [gathering] little;
Bato ya Isalaele basalaki bongo: bamoko balokotaki moke; mpe bamosusu, ebele.
18 and they measure with an omer, and he who is [gathering] much has nothing over, and he who is [gathering] little has no lack, each according to his eating they have gathered.
Mpe bamekaki na omeri: moto oyo alokotaki ebele, alekelaki te; mpe oyo alokotaki moke, azangelaki te. Balokotaki moto na moto kolanda oyo ekokaki mpo na ye kolia.
19 And Moses says to them, “Let no man leave of it until morning”;
Moyize ayebisaki bango: — Moko te abomba ata moke kino na tongo.
20 and they have not listened to Moses, and some of them leave of it until morning, and it brings up worms and stinks; and Moses is angry with them.
Kasi bamosusu kati na bango bayokelaki Moyize te mpe babombaki ndambo na yango kino na tongo. Boye bankusu etondaki na ndambo oyo babombaki, mpe ekomaki kolumba solo ya kopola. Mpo na yango, Moyize atombokelaki bango.
21 And they gather it morning by morning, each according to his eating; when the sun has been warm, then it has melted.
Tongo nyonso, moto na moto abandaki kolokota oyo ekokaki mpo na ye kolia.
22 And it comes to pass on the sixth day, they have gathered a second bread, two omers for one, and all the princes of the congregation come in, and declare [it] to Moses.
Na mokolo ya motoba, bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kolokota mbala mibale ndambo oyo bazalaki kolokota mpo na mokolo moko: omeri mibale mpo na moto moko. Bakambi nyonso ya lisanga bayaki koyebisa yango Moyize.
23 And he says to them, “It [is] that which YHWH has spoken: A rest—a holy Sabbath to YHWH—[is] tomorrow; that which you bake, bake; and that which you boil, boil; and all that is remaining, let [it] rest for yourselves for preservation until the morning.”
Moyize alobaki na bango: — Tala mibeko oyo Yawe apesi: « Lobi ezali mokolo ya kopema, mokolo ya Saba oyo ebulisami mpo na Yawe. Bokolamba oyo bolingi kolamba mpe bokotokisa oyo bolingi kotokisa; kasi oyo ekotikala, bobatela yango kino lobi. »
24 And they let it rest until the morning, as Moses has commanded, and it has not stunk, and a worm has not been in it.
Bato ya Isalaele babatelaki yango kino na tongo, ndenge kaka Moyize atindaki; mana elumbaki te solo ya kopola, mpe bankusu ezalaki te kati na yango.
25 And Moses says, “Eat it today, for today [is] a Sabbath to YHWH; today you do not find it in the field:
Moyize ayebisaki bango: — Mokolo ya lelo ezali mokolo ya Saba, mokolo ya Yawe. Bolia mana oyo bobombaki; pamba te lelo, bokotikala te komona mana na libanda.
26 six days you gather it, and in the seventh day—the Sabbath—there is none in it.”
Bokobanda kolokota yango mikolo motoba; kasi na mokolo ya sambo, mokolo ya Saba, mana ekobanda kozala te.
27 And it comes to pass on the seventh day, some of the people have gone out to gather, and have not found.
Atako bongo, na mokolo ya sambo, bato mosusu kati na bango babimaki mpo na kolokota yango, kasi bamonaki eloko te.
28 And YHWH says to Moses, “How long have you refused to keep My commands and My laws?
Boye Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Kino tango nini bokoboya kobatela mibeko mpe malako na Ngai?
29 See, because YHWH has given the Sabbath to you, therefore He is giving to you on the sixth day bread of two days; each abide [in] his place, no one goes out from his place on the seventh day.”
Botia na mito na bino ete Ngai Yawe, napesaki bino mokolo ya Saba. Yango wana, na mokolo ya motoba, napesaka bino mapa mpo na mikolo mibale. Boye tika ete, na mokolo ya sambo, moto na moto avanda epai na ye; moko te abima na libanda.
30 And the people rest on the seventh day,
Boye bato bapemaki na mokolo ya sambo.
31 and the house of Israel calls its name Manna, and it [is] as white coriander seed; and its taste [is] as a cake with honey.
Bato ya Isalaele babengaki lipa yango mana. Ezalaki pembe lokola bambuma ya koriande mpe elengi lokola mikate balamba na mafuta ya nzoyi.
32 And Moses says, “This [is] the thing which YHWH has commanded: Fill the omer with it, for a charge for your generations, so that they see the bread which I have caused you to eat in the wilderness, in My bringing you out from the land of Egypt.”
Moyize alobaki: — Tala mibeko oyo Yawe apesi: « Bozwa omeri moko ya mana mpe bobomba yango mpo na milongo ya bakitani na bino oyo ekoya, mpo ete bamona mapa oyo naleisaki bino na esobe tango nabimisaki bino na Ejipito. »
33 And Moses says to Aaron, “Take one pot, and put the fullness of the omer of manna [in] there, and let it rest before YHWH, for a charge for your generations”;
Boye Moyize alobi na Aron: — Kamata ekolo moko mpe tia omeri moko ya mana kati na yango; bongo tia yango liboso ya Yawe mpo ete ebombama mpo na milongo oyo ekoya.
34 as YHWH has given command to Moses, so Aaron lets it rest before the Testimony, for a charge.
Ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki Moyize, Aron atiaki mana yango liboso ya Sanduku ya Boyokani mpo ete ebombama malamu.
35 And the sons of Israel have eaten the manna [for] forty years, until their coming to the land to be inhabited; they have eaten the manna until their coming to the extremity of the land of Canaan.
Bana ya Isalaele baliaki mana mibu tuku minei kino tango bakomaki na mondelo ya mokili ya Kanana.
36 And the omer is a tenth of the ephah.
Omeri moko ekokani na eteni ya zomi ya efa.
