Deuteronomy 11
1 Therefore you shall 'ahav ·affectionately love· Adonai your God, and keep his instructions, his statutes, his judgments, and his mitzvot ·instructions·, always.
Boye, okolinga Yawe, Nzambe na yo, mpe okobatela tango nyonso malako na Ye, bikateli na Ye mpe mitindo na Ye.
2 Know this day: for I don’t speak with your children who have not known, and who have not seen the chastisement of Adonai your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, his outstretched arm,
Nazali koloba na bana na bino te oyo batikalaki te koyeba to komona nyonso wana, kasi na bino oyo bozali awa lelo ete bobosanaka te malako ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, monene na Ye, nguya na Ye,
3 his signs, and his works, which he did in the middle of Egypt [Abode of slavery] to Pharaoh the king of Egypt [Abode of slavery], and to all his land;
bilembo mpe bikamwa oyo asalaki kati na Ejipito, epai ya Faraon, mokonzi ya Ejipito, mpe epai ya mokili na ye mobimba,
4 and what he did to the army of Egypt [Abode of slavery], to their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Sea of Suf [Reed Sea] to overflow them as they pursued you, and how Adonai has destroyed them to this day;
makambo oyo asalaki na mampinga ya Ejipito, na bampunda mpe bashar na yango, ndenge azindisaki yango kati na Ebale monene ya barozo, tango ezalaki kolanda bino, mpe ndenge nini Yawe alimwisaki yango libela;
5 and what he did to you in the wilderness, until you came to this place;
makambo oyo asalelaki bino kati na esobe kino bokoma na esika oyo,
6 and what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben [See, a son!]; how the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and every living thing that followed them, in the middle of all Israel [God prevails];
makambo oyo asalaki na Datani mpe Abirami, bana mibali ya Eliabi, na libota ya Ribeni, tango mabele efungolaki monoko na yango mpe emelaki bango elongo na mabota na bango, bandako na bango mpe bato nyonso oyo bazalaki sima na bango kati na Isalaele mobimba.
7 but your eyes have seen all of Adonai’s great work which he did.
Ezali bino nde bato bomonaki na miso na bino moko makambo nyonso ya minene oyo Yawe asalaki.
8 Therefore you shall keep every mitzvah ·instruction· which I enjoin you today, that you may be strong, and go in and possess the land, where you go over to possess it;
Yango wana, bobatela mibeko nyonso oyo napesi bino lelo mpo ete bozala makasi mpe bokoka kobotola mokili oyo bolingi kokota mpo na kozwa
9 and that you may prolong your days in the land, which Adonai swore to your fathers to give to them and to their offspring, a land flowing with milk and honey.
mpe kowumela mingi kati na mokili oyo Yawe alakaki kopesa, na nzela ya ndayi, epai ya bakoko na bino mpe epai ya bakitani na bango, mokili oyo ezali kobimisa miliki mpe mafuta ya nzoyi.
10 For the land, where you go in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], that you came out of, where you sowed your seed, and watered it with your foot, as a garden of herbs;
Mokili oyo ozali kokota mpo na kozwa ekokani te na mokili ya Ejipito epai wapi bowutaki. Kuna, bozalaki kolona bambuma mpe koyeisa mayi na bilanga na kosalaka banzela ya mayi na makolo na bino.
11 but the land, where you go over to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys which drinks water from the rain of the sky,
Kasi mokili oyo bozali kokota mpo na kozwa ezali mokili ya bangomba mpe ya mabwaku, mokili oyo mvula enokaka wuta na likolo.
12 a land which Adonai your God cares for. Adonai your God’s eyes are always on it, from the beginning of the year even to the end of the year.
Ezali mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, abatelaka; miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na yo, ezalaka tango nyonso likolo na yango wuta na ebandeli kino na suka ya mobu.
13 It shall happen, if you shall sh'ma ·hear obey· diligently to my mitzvot ·instructions· which I enjoin you today, to 'ahav ·affectionately love· Adonai your God, and to abad ·serve· him with all your heart and with all your soul,
Soki bokotosa na boyengebene mibeko oyo napesi bino lelo ya kolinga Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe ya kosalela Ye na motema na bino mobimba mpe na molimo na bino mobimba,
14 that I will give the rain of your land in its season, the former rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine, and your oil.
nakonokisa kati na mokili na bino mvula na tango na yango, mvula ya ebandeli ya eleko mpe mvula ya suka ya eleko, mpo ete bokoka kobuka mbuma ya malamu, bokoka kozwa vino ya sika mpe mafuta.
15 I will give grass in your fields for your livestock, and you shall eat and be full.
Nakokolisa matiti kati na bilanga mpo na bibwele na bino mpe bokolia mpe bokotonda.
16 Be careful, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside, and abad ·serve· other deities, and hawa ·bow low, prostrate· to worship them;
Bosala keba ete bokosama te mpe bopengwa te na kogumbamelaka banzambe mosusu mpe na kofukamelaka yango,
17 and Adonai’s anger be kindled against you, and he shut up the sky, so that there is no rain, and the land does not yield its fruit; and you perish quickly from off the good land which Adonai gives you.
noki te Yawe akosilikela bino, akokanga likolo mpo ete enokisa lisusu mvula te mpe mabele ekobota lisusu te mbuma na yango; na bongo bokolimwa kati na mokili ya malamu oyo Yawe apesi bino.
18 Therefore you shall lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul. You shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.
Bobatela malamu kati na mitema mpe milimo na bino maloba na ngai oyo, bokanga yango na maboko na bino lokola bilembo, mpe botia yango na bilongi na bino lokola elembo.
19 You shall teach them your children, talking of them, when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.
Boteya yango na bana na bino na kolobelaka bango yango tango bovandi kati na bandako mpe tango bozali kotambola na nzela, tango bolali pongi mpe tango bolamuki.
20 You shall write them on the door posts of your house, and on your gates;
Bokoma yango na makonzi ya bandako na bino mpe na bikuke na bino
21 that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which Adonai swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.
mpo ete mikolo na bino mpe mikolo ya bakitani na bino ezala ebele kati na mokili oyo Yawe alakaki kopesa epai ya bakoko na bino na nzela na ndayi tango nyonso oyo mokili ekowumela.
22 For if you shall diligently keep all these mitzvot ·instructions· which I enjoin you, to do them, to 'ahav ·affectionately love· Adonai your God, to walk in all his ways, and to dabak ·cling to, worship· to him;
Soki bobateli malamu mibeko nyonso oyo napesi bino mpo na kosalela, na kolingaka Yawe, Nzambe na bino, na kotambolaka na banzela na Ye nyonso mpe na kokangamaka na Ye;
23 then will Adonai drive out all these nations from before you, and you shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.
wana Yawe akobengana liboso na bino bikolo oyo nyonso, mpe bokobotola bikolo oyo eleki bino na monene mpe na makasi.
24 Every place whereon the sole of your foot treads shall be yours: from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates [Fruitful], even to the western sea shall be your border.
Esika nyonso makolo na bino ekonyata, ekozala ya bino. Mokili na bino ekobanda wuta na esobe kino na Libani, wuta na Ebale Efrate kino na este ya Ebale monene.
25 No man will be able to stand before you. Adonai your God will lay the fear of you and the dread of you on all the land that you tread on, as he has spoken to you.
Moto moko te akolonga kotelemela bino. Ndenge Yawe Nzambe alakaki bino, akotia somo mpe kobanga kati na mokili mobimba, na esika nyonso oyo bokokende.
26 Behold, I set before you today a blessing and a curse:
Tala, natie lelo liboso na bino mapamboli mpe bilakeli mabe.
27 the blessing, if you sh'ma ·hear obey· the mitzvot ·instructions· of Adonai your God, which I enjoin you today;
Mapamboli, soki botosi mibeko ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, oyo napesi bino lelo;
28 and the curse, if you do not sh'ma ·hear obey· the mitzvot ·instructions· of Adonai your God, but turn aside out of the way which I enjoin you today, to go after other deities, which you have not known.
bilakeli mabe, soki boboyi kotosa mibeko ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bopengwi na nzela oyo natindi bino lelo, na kosalelaka banzambe mosusu oyo bino botikalaki koyeba te.
29 It shall happen, when Adonai your God brings you into the land where you go to possess it, that you shall set the blessing on Mount Gerizim, and the curse on Mount Ebal.
Tango Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akokotisa bino na mokili oyo bozali kokota mpo na kozwa, bosengeli kotatola mapamboli na ngomba Garizimi, mpe bilakeli mabe, na ngomba Ebali.
30 Are not they beyond the Jordan [Descender], behind the way of the going down of the sun, in the land of the Canaanites [Descendants of Humbled] who dwell in the Arabah, near Gilgal, beside the oaks of Moreh?
Bangomba nyonso mibale ezali na ngambo mosusu ya Yordani, ngambo ya weste, na mokili ya bato ya Kanana oyo bavandaka na etando ya Yordani, etalana na Giligali, pembeni ya banzete minene ya More.
31 For you are to pass over the Jordan [Descender] to go in to possess the land which Adonai your God gives you, and you shall possess it, and dwell therein.
Kala mingi te, bokokatisa Yordani mpo na kokota mpe kozwa mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, azali kopesa bino. Tango bokobotola yango mpe bokowumela kati na yango,
32 You shall observe to do all the statutes and the judgments which I set before you today.
bosala keba ete botosa bikateli nyonso mpe mibeko nyonso oyo nazali kotia liboso na bino lelo.
