Deuteronomy 24
1 When a man taketh a woman, and marrieth her, then shall it be, if she find not favour in his eyes, because he hath found in her some matter of shame, that he shall write her a scroll of divorcement, and put it into her hand, and shall send her forth, out of his house.
Soki mobali abali mwasi mpe, sima na mikolo, asepeli na ye lisusu te mpo ete amoni eloko moko ya mabe kati na ye, tika ete akoma mokanda ya koboma libala mpe apesa ye yango; bongo na sima, abimisa ye na ndako na ye.
2 And, when she cometh forth out of his house, then may she go her way, and become another man’s.
Sima na kobima na ndako ya mobali wana, mwasi yango akoki kobala mobali mosusu.
3 But if the latter husband hate her, and write her a scroll of divorcement and put it into her hand, and send her away out of his house, —or, if the latter husband die, who had taken her to him to wife,
Mpe soki esali ete mobali oyo ya mibale mpe asepeli na ye lisusu te, tika ete ye mpe akokoma mokanda mpo na koboma libala mpe apesa ye yango, bongo na sima, abimisa ye na ndako na ye; to soki esali ete mobali oyo ya mibale akufi,
4 then may her first husband who sent her away not again take her to become his wife after that she hath been defiled, for that were an abomination, before Yahweh, —lest thou bring sin upon the land which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee for an inheritance.
boye mobali na ye ya liboso, oyo abenganaki ye na libala, akoki lisusu te kozongisa ye na libala, pamba te mwasi yango akomi mbindo liboso na ye: kozongisa ye lisusu na libala ezali likambo ya nkele na miso ya Yawe. Boyeisa lisumu te na mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akopesa bino lokola libula.
5 When a man taketh a new wife, he shall not go forth to war, neither shall he be charged with any business, —free, shall he be for his own house one year, and shall rejoice with his wife whom he hath taken.
Soki mobali abali sika, bakoki te kotinda ye na bitumba to kopesa ye mosala songolo; akozala na bonsomi mobu mobimba mpo ete avanda na ndako na ye mpo na kosepelisa mwasi oyo asili kobala.
6 No man shall take in pledge a handmill, or an upper millstone, —for he would be taking life, in pledge.
Bokanga te lokola ndanga, mabanga mibale oyo moninga anikaka na yango ble: mingi koleka libanga oyo ya moke, pamba te kosala bongo ezali lokola kokanga ye nzela oyo abikelaka.
7 When a man is found stealing any person from among his brethren of the sons of Israel, and making merchandise of him, or selling him, then shall that thief die, so shalt thou consume the wicked thing out of thy midst.
Soki moto moko ya Isalaele ayibi ndeko na ye ya Isalaele mpe akomisi ye mowumbu to ateki ye, basengeli koboma moto wana. Na nzela wana nde bosengeli kolongola mabe kati na bino.
8 Take heed, in the plague of leprosy, that thou observe diligently, and do, —according to all that the priests the Levites shall direct you, as I have commanded them, so shall ye observe to do.
Mpo na makambo oyo etali bokono ya maba, bosala keba ete bosalela malamu malako nyonso oyo Banganga-Nzambe, ba-oyo bazali Balevi, bapesaki bino. Bosengeli kotosa malamu makambo oyo natindaki bango.
9 Remember that which Yahweh thy God did to Miriam, —by the way, as ye came forth out of Egypt.
Bobosana te makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, asalaki epai ya Miriami, na nzela, sima na bino kobima na Ejipito.
10 When thou lendest thy neighbour a loan of anything, thou shalt not enter into his house to secure his pledge:
Soki odefisi eloko epai ya moninga na yo, kokota te na ndako na ye mpo na kozwa ndanga.
11 outside, shalt thou stand, and the man to whom thou art lending, shall bring forth unto thee his pledge outside,
Vanda kaka na libanda kino moto oyo adefaki epai na yo akomemela yo ndanga.
12 And, if he be a poor man, thou shalt not sleep in his pledge:
Soki moto yango azali mobola, kokende kolala te na ndanga oyo asimbisaki yo mpo na niongo.
13 thou shalt, restore, to him the pledge at the going in of the sun, so shall he sleep in his own mantle, and bless thee, —and, unto thee, shall it be righteousness before Yahweh thy God.
Okozongisela ye ndanga na ye ya kazaka ye, na pokwa, mpo ete alala na yango. Bongo, ye akopambola yo; mpe ekozala mpo na yo likambo ya sembo na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na yo.
14 Thou shalt not oppress a hired servant that is poor and needy, —of thy brethren or of thy sojourners that are in thy land, within thy gates;
Konyokola te moto ya mosala oyo azali mobola to moto akelela: azala ndeko na yo moto ya Isalaele to mopaya oyo azali kovanda kati na moko ya bingumba na yo.
15 for his day, shalt thou give his hire neither shall the sun, go in upon it, for, poor, he is, and, unto it, is he lifting up his soul, —lest he cry out against thee, unto Yahweh, and it be, in thee a sin.
Pesa ye lifuti na ye ya mokolo na mokolo na pokwa, pamba te azali mobali mpe atiaka elikya na lifuti yango, noki te akoganga epai na Yawe na tina na yo mpe okosala lisumu.
16 Fathers shall not be put to death for sons, nor shall sons, be put to death for fathers, —every man, for his own sin, shall he put to death.
Bakoboma batata te mpo na bana na bango to mpe bakoboma bana te mpo na batata na bango; bakoboma moto na moto mpo na masumu na ye moko.
17 Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the sojourner [or] the fatherless, —neither shalt thou take in pledge the garment of a widow;
Bokoki te kokata na ndenge ya mabe, makambo mpo na mopaya to mpo na mwana etike; to kokamata kazaka ya mwasi oyo akufisa mobali lokola ndanga.
18 so shalt thou remember that, a servant, becamest thou in Egypt, and that Yahweh thy God, redeemed thee, from thence, —therefore, am I commanding thee to do this thing.
Bobosana te ete bino mpe bozalaki bawumbu na Ejipito; mpe Yawe, Nzambe na bino, asikolaki bino kuna.
19 When thou cuttest down thy harvest in thy field and forgettest a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not turn back to fetch it, to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, shall it belong, —that Yahweh thy God, may bless thee, in all the Work of thy hands.
Tango bokobuka mbuma na bilanga na bino, soki bobosani liboke ya ble, bozonga te mpo na kozwa yango; botika yango mpo na mopaya, mpo na mwana etike mpe mpo na mwasi oyo akufisa mobali mpo ete Yawe, Nzambe na bino, apambola bino na misala nyonso oyo maboko na bino ekosala.
20 When thou beatest thine olive-tree, thou shalt not glean after thee, —to the sojourner to the fatherless and to the widow, shall it belong,
Tango bokoningisa bambuma ya olive na banzete na yango, bobuka te oyo ekotikala na bitape; botika yango mpo na bapaya, bana bitike mpe mpo na basi bakufisa mibali.
21 When thou cuttest off the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not go about picking after thee, —to the sojourner to the fatherless and to the widow, shall it belong:
Tango bokobuka bambuma na bilanga na bino ya vino, bokozongela te kobuka na mbala ya mibale. Botika oyo ekotikala mpo na mopaya, mpo na mwana etike mpe mpo na mwasi oyo akufisa mobali.
22 so shalt thou remember that a servant, becamest thou in the land of Egypt, —therefore, am I commending thee to do this thing.
Bokanisa ete bozalaki bawumbu na Ejipito. Yango wana natindi bino kotosa mibeko oyo.
