Deuteronomy 1
1 These are the words which Moses spoke to all Israel beyond the Jordan in the wilderness, in the Arabah over against Suph, between Paran, and Tophel, and Laban, and Hazeroth, and Dizahab.
Tala maloba oyo Moyize ayebisaki bana nyonso ya Isalaele na ngambo ya este ya Yordani kati na esobe, kati na etando Araba oyo etalana na Sufi, kati ya Parani mpe Tofeli, kati ya Labani, Atseroti mpe Di-Zaabi.
2 It is eleven days' journey from Horeb by the way of Mount Seir to Kadesh Barnea.
Esengaka mikolo zomi na moko ya mobembo wuta na Orebi kino na Kadeshi-Barinea, na nzela ya ngomba Seiri.
3 It happened in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spoke to the children of Israel, according to all that YHWH had given him in commandment to them;
Na mokolo ya liboso ya sanza ya zomi na moko, na mobu ya minei, Moyize alobaki na bana ya Isalaele makambo nyonso oyo Yawe atindaki ye na tina na bango.
4 after he had struck Sihon the king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, who lived in Ashtaroth and in Edrei.
Makambo yango esalemaki sima na Moyize kolonga Sikoni, mokonzi ya bato ya Amori, oyo azalaki koyangela wuta na Eshiboni, mpe sima na ye kolonga Ogi, mokonzi ya Bashani, oyo azalaki kovanda na Ashitaroti mpe na Edreyi.
5 Beyond the Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying,
Ezalaki na ngambo ya este ya Yordani, na mokili ya Moabi, nde Moyize alimbolaki mobeko oyo. Alobaki na bango:
6 "YHWH our God spoke to us in Horeb, saying, You have lived long enough in this mountain:
« Yawe, Nzambe na biso, alobaki na biso, na ngomba Orebi: ‹ Bowumeli mpe mingi na ngomba oyo.
7 turn, and take your journey, and go to the hill country of the Amorites, and to all the places near there, in the Arabah, in the hill country, and in the lowland, and in the Negev, and by the sea coast, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Perath.
Bolongola molako mpe bokende kino na etuka ya bangomba ya bato ya Amori; bokende na bamboka nyonso oyo ezali pene ya Araba, na bangomba, na mboka ya se, na Negevi mpe pembeni-pembeni ya mayi monene, kati na mokili ya bato ya Kanana mpe na mokili ya Libani kino na Efrate, ebale monene.
8 Look, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which I swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to them and to their descendants after them."
Tala, napesi bino mokili oyo. Bokota mpe bokamata mokili oyo Yawe alakaki kopesa, na nzela ya ndayi, epai ya bakoko na bino —Abrayami, Izaki, Jakobi— mpe bakitani na bango. › »
9 I spoke to you at that time, saying, "I am not able to bear you myself alone:
Na tango wana, nalobaki na bino: — Ngai moko nakokoka te kokamba bino.
10 YHWH your God has multiplied you, and look, you are this day as the stars of the sky for multitude.
Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akomisi bino ebele koleka mpe tala lelo motango na bino ekomi lokola minzoto na likolo.
11 YHWH, the God of your fathers, make you a thousand times as many as you are, and bless you, as he has promised you.
Tika ete Yawe, Nzambe ya bakoko na bino, akomisa bino ebele mbala nkoto moko mpe apambola bino ndenge alakaki!
12 How can I myself alone bear your encumbrance, and your burden, and your strife?
Nakokoka ndenge nini komema ngai moko makambo na bino, mikumba na bino, mpe kowelana na bino?
13 Take wise men of understanding and well known according to your tribes, and I will make them heads over you."
Bopona bato ya bwanya, ya mayele mpe ya lokumu kati na moko na moko ya mabota na bino, mpe ngai nakotia bango bakambi na bino.
14 You answered me, and said, "The thing which you have spoken is good to do."
Bozongiselaki ngai: — Makambo oyo osili koyebisa biso ezali malamu.
15 So I took the heads of your tribes, wise men, and known, and made them heads over you, captains of thousands, and captains of hundreds, and captains of fifties, and captains of tens, and officers, according to your tribes.
Boye, nazwaki bakambi kati na mabota na bino, bato ya lokumu mpe ya bwanya, bongo nakomisaki bango bakambi ya bankoto, ya bankama, ya batuku mitano mpe ya bazomi, mpe bakalaka mpo na mabota na bino.
16 I commanded your judges at that time, saying, "Hear cases between your brothers, and judge righteously between a man and his brother, and the foreigner who is living with him.
Na tango wana, napesaki bakambi na bino mokumba oyo: « Boyoka kowelana oyo ezali kati na bandeko na bino mpe bokata makambo na bosembo; ezala kowelana kati ya bana ya Isalaele bango na bango to kati ya mwana ya Isalaele mpe mopaya.
17 You shall not show partiality in judgment; you shall hear the small and the great alike; you shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God's. The case that is too hard for you, you shall bring to me, and I will hear it."
Bopona bilongi te na tango ya kosambisa, boyoka bato nyonso: azala moto pamba to moto monene. Bobanga moto te, pamba te kosambisa ezali likambo ya Nzambe. Bomemela ngai likambo oyo eleki bino na makasi mpe ngai nakoyoka yango. »
18 I commanded you at that time all the things which you should do.
Mpe na tango wana, nayebisaki bino makambo nyonso oyo bosengeli kosala.
19 We traveled from Horeb, and went through all that great and terrible wilderness which you saw, by the way to the hill country of the Amorites, as YHWH our God commanded us; and we came to Kadesh Barnea.
Boye, ndenge Yawe, Nzambe na biso, atindaki biso, tolongwaki na ngomba Orebi mpe tokendeki na etuka ya bangomba ya bato ya Amori. Tokatisaki esobe monene mpe ya somo oyo bomonaki mpe tokomaki na Kadeshi-Barinea.
20 I said to you, "You have come to the hill country of the Amorites, which YHWH our God gives to us.
Nalobaki na bino: — Bosili kokoma na etuka ya bangomba ya bato ya Amori, etuka oyo Yawe, Nzambe na biso, apesi biso.
21 Look, YHWH your God has set the land before you: go up, take possession, as YHWH, the God of your fathers, has spoken to you; do not be afraid, neither be dismayed."
Botala, Yawe, Nzambe na bino, apesi bino mokili; bokende mpe bokamata yango ndenge Yawe, Nzambe ya bakoko na bino, alobaki na bino. Bobanga te mpe bozala na mpiko.
22 You came near to me everyone of you, and said, "Let us send men before us, that they may search the land for us, and bring us word again of the way by which we must go up, and the cities to which we shall come."
Bato nyonso kati na bino bayaki epai na ngai mpe balobaki: — Tika ete totinda liboso na biso bato mpo na konongela biso mokili mpe komemela biso sango ya nzela oyo tokoki kolanda mpe ya bingumba epai wapi tokokende.
23 The thing pleased me well; and I took twelve men of you, one man for every tribe:
Likanisi yango emonanaki malamu na miso na ngai, yango wana naponaki kati na bino mibali zomi na mibale, mobali moko mpo na libota moko.
24 and they turned and went up into the hill country, and came to the Valley of Eshcol, and spied it out.
Balongwaki mpe bakendeki, bongo bamataki kino na etuka ya bangomba mpe bakomaki na lubwaku ya Eshikoli oyo banongaki.
25 They took of the fruit of the land in their hands, and brought it down to us, and brought us word again, and said, "It is a good land which YHWH our God gives to us."
Bakamataki na maboko na bango ndambo ya bambuma ya mokili wana mpe bamemelaki biso yango. Tala sango oyo bapesaki biso: « Mboka oyo Yawe, Nzambe na biso, apesi biso ezali malamu. »
26 Yet you wouldn't go up, but rebelled against the commandment of YHWH your God:
Kasi boboyaki komata, botombokelaki etinda ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
27 and you murmured in your tents, and said, "Because YHWH hated us, he has brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us.
Bongo boyimaki-yimaki kati na bandako na bino mpe bolobaki: « Yawe alingaka biso te, yango wana abimisaki biso na Ejipito mpo na kokaba biso na maboko ya bato ya Amori mpo ete bango baboma biso.
28 Where are we going up? Our brothers have made our heart to melt, saying, 'The people are greater and taller than we; the cities are great and fortified up to the sky; and moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.'"
Boni, tokende kaka kuna? Bandeko na biso basili kolembisa biso nzoto. Balobi: ‹ Bato yango bazali makasi mpe bingambe koleka biso, bingumba na bango ezali minene mpe bamir na yango ekenda kino na likolo. Tomonaki lisusu bana ya Anaki kuna. › »
29 Then I said to you, "Do not dread, neither be afraid of them.
Nalobaki na bino: « Bozala na somo te mpe bobanga bango te,
30 YHWH your God who goes before you, he will fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes,
pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, azali kotambola liboso na bino mpe akobunda mpo na bino ndenge asalaki na Ejipito, na miso ya bato nyonso.
31 and in the wilderness, where you have seen how that YHWH your God bore you, as a man does bear his son, in all the way that you went, until you came to this place."
Mpe na esobe, na banzela nyonso oyo botambolaki kino bokoma na esika oyo, bomonaki ndenge nini Yawe, Nzambe na bino, amemaki bino ndenge tata amemaka mwana na ye. »
32 Yet in this thing you did not believe YHWH your God,
Atako bongo, botiaki elikya te epai na Yawe, Nzambe na bino,
33 who went before you in the way, to seek you out a place to pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to show you by what way you should go, and in the cloud by day.
oyo azalaki kotambola liboso na bino na nzela mpo na kolukela bino esika ya kotonga molako. Na butu, azalaki lokola likonzi ya moto; mpe na moyi, azalaki lokola likonzi ya lipata; mpo na kolakisa bino nzela oyo bosengelaki kotambola.
34 YHWH heard the voice of your words, and was angry, and swore, saying,
Tango Yawe ayokaki nyonso oyo bozalaki koloba, asilikaki mpe alapaki ndayi:
35 "Surely not one of these men of this evil generation shall see the good land, which I swore to give to your fathers,
« Moto moko te kati na molongo oyo ya bato mabe akoki komona mokili ya kitoko oyo nalakaki kopesa na bakoko na bango na nzela ya ndayi,
36 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh: he shall see it; and to him will I give the land that he has trodden on, and to his children, because he has wholly followed YHWH."
longola kaka Kalebi, mwana mobali ya Yefune; ye akomona yango, mpe nakopesa na ye mpe na bakitani na ye, mokili oyo lokolo na ye enyataki, pamba te asalelaki Ngai Yawe na motema na ye mobimba. »
37 Also YHWH was angry with me for your sakes, saying, "You also shall not go in there:
Likolo na bino, Yawe asilikelaki mpe ngai; alobaki: « Yo mpe lisusu okokota te kati na mokili yango.
38 Joshua the son of Nun, who stands before you, he shall go in there. Encourage him, because he will cause Israel to inherit it.
Kasi mosungi na yo Jozue, mwana mobali ya Nuni, ye akokota kati na yango. Lendisa ye, pamba te ye nde akokamba Isalaele mpo na kozwa mokili yango lokola libula.
39 Moreover your little ones, whom you said should be a prey, and your children, who this day have no knowledge of good or evil, they shall go in there, and to them will I give it, and they shall possess it.
Bongo, bana na bino oyo bolobaki ete bakomema bango na bowumbu, bana na bino oyo bayebi nanu te kokesenisa malamu mpe mabe, bango nde bakokota na mokili yango. Nakopesa bango mokili yango, mpe bakokamata yango.
40 But as for you, turn, and take your journey into the wilderness by the way to the Red Sea."
Mpo na bino, bobaluka mpe bokende na esobe, na nzela ya ebale monene ya Barozo. »
41 Then you answered and said to me, "We have sinned against YHWH our God, we will go up and fight, according to all that YHWH our God commanded us." Every man of you put on his weapons of war, and presumed to go up into the hill country.
Bozongiselaki ngai: « Tosali masumu epai na Yawe. Tokokende mpe tokobunda ndenge Yawe, Nzambe na biso, atindaki biso. » Boye, moto nyonso kati na bino alataki bibundeli na ye, mpe bokanisaki ete ezali likambo ya pasi te komata na etuka ya bangomba.
42 YHWH said to me, "Tell them, 'Do not go up, neither fight; for I am not among you; lest you be struck before your enemies.'"
Kasi Yawe alobaki na ngai: « Yebisa bango ete bamata te mpe babunda te, pamba te nakozala elongo na bango te; banguna na bango bakolonga bango. »
43 So I spoke to you, and you did not listen; but you rebelled against the commandment of YHWH, and were presumptuous, and went up into the hill country.
Nzokande nayebisaki bino, kasi boyokaki kaka te; botombokelaki mitindo ya Yawe; mpe, na lolendo na bino, bomataki na etuka ya bangomba.
44 The Amorites, who lived in that hill country, came out against you, and chased you, as bees do, and beat you down in Seir, even to Hormah.
Boye, bato ya Amori oyo bavandaka na bangomba yango bakitelaki bino mpe babundisaki bino, babenganaki bino lokola liboke ya banzoyi mpe balongaki bino longwa na Seiri kino na Orima.
45 You returned and wept before YHWH; but YHWH did not listen to your voice, nor gave ear to you.
Bozongaki mpe bolelaki liboso ya Yawe, kasi aboyaki koyoka kolela na bino, akangaki matoyi na Ye.
46 So you stayed in Kadesh many days, according to the days that you remained.
Bongo bovandaki na Kadeshi mikolo ebele.
