Deuteronomy 15
1 At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release.
Na suka ya mibu sambo nyonso, bosengeli kosundola baniongo.
2 And this is the manner of the release: every creditor shall release that which he hath lent unto his neighbour; he shall not exact it of his neighbour and his brother; because the LORD’S release hath been proclaimed.
Tala ndenge esengeli kosalema: moto nyonso oyo adefisaki ndeko na ye, mwana ya Isalaele, mbongo, asengeli kotikela ye yango. Asengeli te kosenga eloko epai ya ndeko to moninga na ye, moto ya Isalaele, pamba te tango ya kotika baniongo mpo na lokumu na Yawe esili kokoka.
3 Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it: but whatsoever of thine is with thy brother thine hand shall release.
Bokoki kosenga niongo epai ya mopaya, kasi bosengeli kosundola baniongo nyonso oyo bandeko na bino badefaki epai na bino.
4 Howbeit there shall be no poor with thee; (for the LORD will surely bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it; )
Nzokande, ebongaki te ete mobola azala kati na bino; pamba te kati na mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akopesa bino mpo ete bokamata yango lokola libula, akopambola bino koleka,
5 if only thou diligently hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all this commandment which I command thee this day.
soki botosi malamu Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bosaleli malamu mitindo oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo.
6 For the LORD thy God will bless thee, as he promised thee: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt rule over many nations, but they shall not rule over thee.
Pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akopambola bino ndenge alakaki; mpe bino bokodefisa na bikolo ebele, kasi bokodefa te. Bokokonza bikolo ebele, kasi ekolo moko te ekokonza bino.
7 If there be with thee a poor man, one of thy brethren, within any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine hand from thy poor brother:
Soki mobola moko amonani kati na bandeko na yo na bingumba ya mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, azali kopesa yo; okokangela ye motema te mpe okoboya te kosunga ndeko na yo mobola.
8 but thou shalt surely open thine hand unto him, and shalt surely lend him sufficient for his need [in that] which he wanteth.
Nzokande, okofungolela ye maboko mpe okodefisa ye na motema moko, nyonso oyo akozala na yango na bosenga.
9 Beware that there be not a base thought in thine heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou give him nought; and he cry unto the LORD against thee, and it be sin unto thee.
Keba ete motema na yo ezala na makanisi ya mabe te mpe eloba na yo te: « Mobu ya sambo ekomi pene, mobu ya kotika baniongo, » mpo ete otala ndeko na yo mobola na ndenge ya mabe mpe ozanga kopesa ye eloko. Mpe wana ye akolelalela epai na Yawe na tina na yo, okomema ngambo ya masumu na yo.
10 Thou shalt surely give him, and thine heart shall not be grieved when thou givest unto him: because that for this thing the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy work, and in all that thou puttest thine hand unto.
Osengeli kopesa ye na motema ya esengo kasi na mitema mibale te; bongo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopambola yo na misala na yo nyonso mpe na eloko nyonso oyo maboko na yo ekosimba.
11 For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt surely open thine hand unto thy brother, to thy needy, and to thy poor, in thy land.
Nzokande lokola babola bakozala kaka kati na mokili, ngai nazali kotinda bino ete bofungola maboko na bino epai ya bandeko na bino, epai ya babola mpe epai bato nyonso oyo bakelela kati na mokili na bino.
12 If thy brother, an Hebrew man, or an Hebrew woman, be sold unto thee, and serve thee six years; then in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee.
Soki moko kati na bandeko na yo, Mo-Ebre, azala mobali to mwasi, amiteki ye moko epai na yo, akosalela yo mibu motoba; na mobu ya sambo, okotika ye kokende na bonsomi.
13 And when thou lettest him go free from thee, thou shalt not let him go empty:
Mpe tango okotika ye, okozongisa ye maboko pamba te;
14 thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and out of thy threshing-floor, and out of thy winepress: as the LORD thy God hath blessed thee thou shalt give unto him.
okopesa ye na motema ya esengo ndambo na yo ya bibwele, ya ble mpe ya vino; okopesa ye ndenge kaka Yawe, Nzambe na yo, apambolaki yo.
15 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee: therefore I command thee this thing today.
Bokanisa ete bino mpe bozalaki bawumbu na Ejipito; mpe Yawe, Nzambe na bino, asikolaki bino. Yango wana, napesi bino mobeko oyo na mokolo ya lelo.
16 And it shall be, if he say unto thee, I will not go out from thee; because he loveth thee and thine house, because he is well with thee;
Kasi soki alobi na yo: « Naboyi kotika yo, » mpo ete alingaka yo elongo na libota na yo mpe azalaka na esengo ya kovanda elongo na yo,
17 then thou shalt take an awl, and thrust it through his ear unto the door, and he shall be thy servant for ever. And also unto thy maidservant thou shalt do likewise.
wana okozwa motonga, okotia litoyi na ye na ezipelo ya ekuke mpe okotobola yango. Na bongo, akokoma mowumbu na yo mpo na libela. Okosala mpe ndenge moko mpo na mwasi mowumbu.
18 It shall not seem hard unto thee, when thou lettest him go free from thee; for to the double of the hire of an hireling hath he served thee six years: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all that thou doest.
Komona yango likambo ya pasi te kotika mowumbu na yo na bonsomi, pamba te mosala oyo asaleli yo na mibu motoba ezali na litomba mbala mibale koleka litomba ya moto oyo ozwa na mosala. Mpe Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopambola yo na nyonso oyo okosala.
19 All the firstling males that are born of thy herd and of thy flock thou shalt sanctify unto the LORD thy God: thou shalt do no work with the firstling of thine ox, nor shear the firstling of thy flock.
Bokotia pembeni mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mwana mobali nyonso ya liboso oyo akobotama kati na bangombe, bameme mpe bantaba na bino. Kati na bitonga na bino, bokotia na mosala te bana ya liboso ya bangombe na bino mpe bokolongola te bapwale ya bana ya liboso.
20 Thou shalt eat it before the LORD thy God year by year in the place which the LORD shall choose, thou and thy household.
Mibu nyonso, bino elongo na mabota na bino, bokolia bibwele yango na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, na esika oyo akopona.
21 And if it have any blemish, [as if it be] lame or blind, any ill blemish whatsoever, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto the LORD thy God.
Soki ebwele yango ezali na mbeba to ezali tengu-tengu to ekufa miso to soki ezali na mbeba mosusu ya makasi, bokoki kobonza yango te epai na Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
22 Thou shalt eat it within thy gates: the unclean and the clean [shall eat it] alike, as the gazelle, and as the hart.
Bokolia yango kati na bingumba na bino: moto nyonso, azala mbindo to peto, akolia yango ndenge baliaka mboloko to mbuli.
23 Only thou shalt not eat the blood thereof; thou shalt pour it out upon the ground as water.
Kasi bokolia makila te, bosopa yango na mabele lokola mayi.
