< Deuteronomy 28 >
1 And it shall be, if thou wilt, hearken, unto the voice of Yahweh thy God, to observe to do all his commandments which I am commanding thee to-day, then will Yahweh thy God set thee on high, above all the nations of the earth;
Soki botosi penza Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bosaleli penza mitindo na Ye oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo; Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akotombola bino likolo ya bikolo nyonso ya mokili.
2 and all these blessings shall come in upon thee, and reach thee, —because thou dost hearken unto the voice of Yahweh thy God: —
Tala mapamboli oyo ekopesamela bino mpe ekolanda bino tango bokotosa Yawe, Nzambe na bino:
3 Blessed shalt, thou be in the city, —and blessed shalt thou be in the field:
Bokopambolama na engumba mpe bokopambolama na bilanga.
4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground and the fruit of thy cattle, —the young of thy kine, and the ewes of thy flock:
Mabota na bino ekopambolama; milona na bino mpe bibwele na bino: bangombe na bino, bameme mpe bantaba na bino ekopambolama.
5 Blessed, shall be thy basket and thy kneading-trough:
Bitunga na bino mpe mesa na bino oyo bosalelaka mapa ekopambolama.
6 Blessed, shalt thou be when thou comest in, —and, blessed, shalt thou be when thou goest out:
Bokopambolama tango bokokota mpe bokopambolama tango bokobima.
7 Yahweh will deliver thine enemies who rise up against thee, to be routed before thee, —one way, shall they come out against thee, and seven ways, shall they flee before thee:
Yawe akosala ete banguna oyo bakotelemela bino bakokweyisama liboso na bino; bakoya epai na bino na nzela moko, kasi bakokima bino na banzela sambo.
8 Yahweh will command to be with thee the blessing, in thy storehouses and in all whereunto thou settest thy hand, —and will bless thee in the land which Yahweh thy God is giving unto thee:
Yawe Nzambe akopambola bibombelo na bino ya biloko mpe akopambola misala nyonso ya maboko na bino. Yawe Nzambe akopambola bino na mokili oyo azali kopesa bino.
9 Yahweh will confirm thee unto himself for a holy people, as he sware unto thee, —because thou dost keep the commandments of Yahweh thy God, and dost walk in his ways.
Yawe akokomisa bino libota na Ye ya bule ndenge alakaki bino tango alapaki ndayi, pamba te bokobatela mitindo ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bokotambola na banzela na Ye.
10 And all the peoples of the earth shall see that, the name of Yahweh, hath been called upon thee, —and shall be afraid of thee.
Bongo bato nyonso ya mokili bakomona ete bozali penza bato ya Yawe mpe bakobanga bino.
11 And Yahweh will cause thee to abound in that which is good, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle and in the fruit of thy soil, —upon the soil which Yahweh sware unto thy fathers, to give unto thee:
Yawe akotondisa bino na bozwi ebele: mabota, bibwele, milona kati na mokili oyo alapaki ndayi epai ya bakoko na bino ete akopesa bino.
12 Yahweh will open unto thee his rich storehouse—the heavens, to give the rain of thy land in its season, and to bless every work of thy hand, so shalt thou lend unto many nations, but thou, shalt not borrow:
Mpo na bolamu na yo, Yawe akofungola likolo, ebombelo ya bamvula na Ye, mpo na konokisa mvula na mokili na bino na eleko ya malamu; mpe akopambola misala nyonso ya maboko na bino. Bikolo ebele ekodefa epai na bino, kasi bino bokodefa ata na ekolo moko te.
13 And Yahweh, will give thee, to be the head, and not the tail, and thou shalt be only above, and shalt not be beneath, —because thou dost hearken unto the commandments of Yahweh thy God, which I am commanding thee, to-day, to observe and to do;
Yawe akokomisa bino mito, kasi mikila te; pamba te bokobatela penza mitindo ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo mpe bokosalela yango penza. Lokumu na bino ekozala kaka likolo, ekokita te.
14 and dost not turn side from any of the words which I am commanding you to-day, to the right hand or to the left, —to go after other gods, to serve them,
Kati na mitindo oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo, bopengwa ata na moko te, mpo na kolanda banzambe mosusu mpe kosalela yango.
15 But it shall be, if thou do not hearken unto the voice of Yahweh thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I am commanding thee to-day, then shall come in upon thee all these curses and shall reach thee: —
Kasi soki botosi te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bosaleli te mitindo mpe bikateli na Ye, oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo, tala bilakeli mabe oyo ekokomela bino mpe ekokanga bino:
16 Cursed, shalt thou be in the city, —and cursed, shalt thou be in the field:
Bokolakelama mabe kati na engumba mpe bokolakelama mabe kati na bilanga.
17 Cursed, shall be thy basket, and thy kneading-trough:
Bitunga na bino mpe mesa na bino oyo bosalelaka mapa ekolakelama mabe.
18 Cursed, shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground—the young of thy kine and the ewes of thy flock:
Mabota na bino, milona na bino, bibwele na bino: bangombe, bameme mpe bantaba ekolakelama mabe.
19 Cursed, shalt thou be, when thou comest in, —and, cursed, shalt thou be, when thou goest out:
Bokolakelama mabe tango bokokota mpe bokolakelama mabe tango bokobima.
20 Yahweh will send upon thee cursing, confusion and rebuke, in all whereunto thou settest thy hand that thou mayest do it, —until thou be destroyed and until thou perish quickly, because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me.
Kati na nyonso oyo bokosala, Yawe akotindela bino bilakeli mabe, minyoko mpe mikakatano; bongo bokowumela te mpo na kobebisama nye likolo ya mabe oyo bosalaki ya kosundola Yawe.
21 Yahweh will cause to cleave unto thee—the pestilence, —until he hath consumed thee from off the soil which thou art entering to possess.
Yawe akotindela bino bokono oyo ebomaka kino akobebisa bino kati na mokili oyo bozali kokota mpo na kozwa.
22 Yahweh, will smite thee, with consumption and with fever, and with inflammation and with violent heat and with the sword, and with blight and with mildew, —and they shall pursue thee, until thou perish.
Yawe akosilisa koboma bino na bokono ya ndenge na ndenge oyo akotindela bino: fievele, kosila nzoto, mpese. Akotinda lisusu bokono oyo ekobebisa bilanga na bino: kozanga mvula, banyama mike oyo ebebisaka milona mpe bibende. Bokono nyonso oyo ekolanda bino kino bokosila kokufa.
23 And thy heavens which are over thy head shall become bronze, —and the earth which is under thee iron.
Mapata oyo ezali likolo ya mito na bino ekokoma lokola bronze mpe ekolekisa lisusu mvula te, mpe mabele oyo ezali na se ya makolo na bino ekokoma makasi lokola libende mpe ekobotisa lisusu mabele te.
24 Yahweh will cause the rain of thy land to be powder and dust, —out of the heavens, shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed.
Kati na mokili na bino, Yawe akobongola mvula mpo ete ekoma putulu mpe zelo; yango ekokweya wuta na likolo kino ekobebisa bino.
25 Yahweh will give thee up to be routed before thine enemies, one way, shalt thou go out against them, and, seven ways, shalt thou flee before them, —and thou shalt become a terror unto all the kingdoms of the earth.
Yawe akosala ete banguna na bino balonga bino. Bakoya epai na bino na nzela moko mpe bino bokokima liboso na bango na banzela sambo. Bokokoma eloko ya somo na miso ya bikolo nyonso ya mokili.
26 And thy dead body shall become food for every bird of the heavens, and for the beast of the earth, —with none to fright them away.
Bibembe na bino ekokoma bilei ya bandeke nyonso mpe ya banyama ya zamba, bongo moto moko te akoya wana mpo na kobengana yango.
27 Yahweh, will smite thee, with the burning sores of Egypt and with the hemorrhoids, and with scab, and with itch, —of which thou canst not be healed.
Yawe akotindela bino bokono oyo esilaka te lokola oyo atindaki na Ejipito: pota ya libumu, makwanza mpe mikusa ya nzoto.
28 Yahweh, will smite thee, with madness and with blindness, —and with terror of heart;
Yawe akotindela bino bokono ya liboma, ya kokufa miso mpe ya mobulu na makanisi.
29 and thou shalt he groping about in noonday brightness, as the blind man gropeth in thick darkness, and thou shalt not make thy ways prosper, —but shalt be only oppressed and spoiled all the days with none to save.
Na moyi makasi, bokotenga-tenga lokola bakufi miso na molili. Bokolonga te na makambo nyonso oyo bokosala. Mokolo na mokolo, bakonyokola bino mpe bakoyiba bino, mpe moto moko te akomonana mpo na kokangola bino.
30 A wife, shalt thou betroth, and, another man shall lie with her. A house, shalt thou build, and shalt not dwell therein, —A vineyard, shalt thou plant, and shalt not throw it open;
Soki moko kati na bino azwi mwasi lokola mobandami na libala, mobali mosusu nde akosangisa na ye nzoto. Mosusu akotonga ndako, kasi akovanda yango te. Mosusu akolona elanga ya vino, kasi okobuka bambuma na yango te.
31 Thine ox slaughtered before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof, Thine ass stolen from before thee, and shall not be restored to thee, —Thy flock given to thine enemies, and thou shalt have none to save.
Bakokata bakingo ya bangombe na bino na miso na bino, kasi bokolia yango te. Bakokamata ba-ane na bino na makasi, na miso na bino, kasi ekozonga epai na bino te; bakokaba epai ya banguna na bino, bameme mpe bantaba na bino; mpe moto moko te akosunga bino.
32 Thy sons and thy daughters given to another people, thine eyes looking on, and failing for them all the day, thine own hand being powerless.
Bakokaba bana na bino ya mibali mpe ya basi na ekolo mosusu, mpe bokofungola miso na bino mpo na kotala mokolo na mokolo bozongi na bango, kasi bokokoka kosala ata eloko moko te.
33 The fruit of thy soil, and all thy toilsome produce, shall a people whom thou knowest not, eat up, —and thou shalt be only oppressed and crushed, all the days;
Bato oyo boyebi te bakolia bambuma ya mabele na bino mpe ya misala na bino nyonso.
34 so that thou shalt be mad, —for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.
Bokobela liboma likolo ya makambo oyo miso na bino ekobanda komona.
35 Yahweh, will smite thee, with a grievous boil, upon the knees and upon the legs, of which thou canst not be healed, —from the sole of thy foot even unto the crown of thy head.
Yawe akotindela bino bokono oyo ekobuka bino mabolongo, makolo; bokono oyo ekoki kobika te mpe ekopanzana banda na se ya matambe kino na mito.
36 Yahweh will bring thee and thy king whom thou wilt set up over thee, unto a nation which thou hast not known, thou nor thy fathers, —and thou shalt serve there other gods of wood and of stone.
Yawe akomema bino mpe mokonzi oyo bokopona mpo na koyangela bino, na ekolo oyo bino mpe bakoko na bino botikala nanu koyeba te. Kuna bokogumbamela banzambe mosusu: banzambe ya banzete mpe ya mabanga.
37 Thus shalt thou become a horror, a byword, and a mockery, among all the peoples whither Yahweh thy God will drive thee.
Bikolo nyonso epai wapi Yawe akomema bino, bakomona bakokima bino lokola eloko ya somo mpe bakobeta masapo mpo na kotiola bino.
38 Much seed, shalt thou take out into the field, —and little, shalt thou gather in, for the locust shall consume it.
Bokolona bankona ebele na bilanga, kasi bokobuka moke; pamba te mabanki ekolia bankona wana.
39 Vineyards, shalt thou plant, and dress, —but wine, shalt thou not drink, neither shalt thou gather the grapes, for the worm shall eat them.
Bokosala mpe bokobongisa bilanga ya vino, kasi bokotikala te komela vino yango mpe kobuka bambuma na yango, pamba te banyama mike oyo eliaka nzete ekobebisa yango.
40 Olive trees, shalt thou have in all thy bounds, —but with oil, shalt thou not anoint thyself, for thine olives, shall drop off.
Bokozala na banzete ya olive na mokili na bino mobimba, kasi bokopakola mafuta na yango te, pamba te bambuma ya olive ekokweya liboso ete ekomela.
41 Sons and daughters, shalt thou beget, and they shall not be thine, for they shall go into captivity.
Bokozala na bana ya mibali mpe ya basi, kasi bokobatela bango te, pamba te bakokende na bowumbu.
42 All thy trees, and the fruit of thy ground, shall the grasshopper, devour.
Mabanki ekolia banzete na bino nyonso mpe bambuma ya mabele na bino.
43 The sojourner who is in thy midst, shall mount up above thee higher and higher, —whereas, thou, shalt come down lower and lower:
Mopaya oyo avandi kati na bino akoleka bino na lokumu tango nyonso, kasi bino bokokita se kokita;
44 he, shall lend to thee, but, thou, shalt not lend to him, —he, shall become head, and, thou, shalt become tail.
akodefisa bino, kasi bino bokokoka kodefisa ye te; akozala moto, kasi bino bokozala mokila.
45 Moreover, all these curses, shall come in upon thee, and pursue thee and overtake thee, until thou be destroyed, —because thou didst not hearken unto the voice of Yahweh thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he hath commanded thee;
Tala bilakeli mabe nyonso oyo ekokomela bino, ekolanda bino mpe ekozwa bino, ekokanga bino kino bokobebisama; pamba te botosaki te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bobatelaki te mitindo mpe bikateli oyo apesaki bino.
46 and they shall be upon thee, for a sign, and for a wonder, and upon thy seed, unto times age-abiding.
Bilakeli mabe oyo ekozala elembo mpe makambo ya kokamwa epai na bino mpe epai ya bakitani na bino mpo na libela.
47 Because thou servedst not Yahweh thy God, with rejoicing, and with gladness of heart, for abundance of all things,
Mpo ete bosalelaki te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, na esengo mpe na kosepela na tango ya bofuluki;
48 therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies, whom Yahweh will send against thee, with hunger and with thirst and with nakedness, and with want of all things, —and he, will put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he hath destroyed thee.
tango bokozala na nzala mpe na posa ya komela, mpe tango bokozanga bilamba mpe bokokelela, bokosalela banguna oyo Yawe Nzambe akotindela bino. Akotia bino ekangiseli ya ebende na kingo kino akobebisa bino.
49 Yahweh will bring against thee a nation from afar, from the end of the earth, as darteth a bird of prey, —a nation whose tongue thou canst not understand;
Yawe akotindela bino na mosika, wuta na suka ya mokili, ekolo moko oyo ezali lokola mpongo oyo ezali kopumbwa, ekolo oyo bokososola monoko na yango te; ekobundisa bino.
50 a nation of fierce countenance, —who wilt not respect an elder nor to the young, show favour;
Bato ya ekolo yango bazali na bilongi ya kanda-kanda, batosaka te bato oyo bazali mikolo mpe bayokelaka bilenge mawa te.
51 then shall he eat the young of thy cattle and the fruit of thy ground until thou art destroyed, who will not leave for thee corn, new wine or oil, the young of thy kine, or the ewes of thy flock, —until he hath caused thee to perish.
Bakolia bana ya bibwele na bino mpe bambuma ya mabele na bino, kino bakobebisa bino. Bakotikela bino ata ble te, vino ya sika te, mafuta te, ata bana ngombe na bino te, ata bana meme na bino te mpe ata bantaba na bino te kino bokobebisama.
52 And he shall lay siege to thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fortified walls come down wherein thou wast trusting, in all thy land, —yea he will lay siege to thee in all thy gates, in all thy land which Yahweh thy God, hath given, unto thee.
Bakozingela bingumba na bino nyonso kati na mokili na bino kino bamir na bino ya milayi mpe ya makasi oyo botielaka mitema ekokweya. Bakozingela bingumba nyonso kati na mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, apesi bino.
53 And thou wilt eat the fruit of thy body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, whom Yahweh thy God hath given unto thee—in the siege and in the straitness wherewith thine enemy will straiten thee.
Mpo na pasi oyo banguna na bino bakomonisa bino tango bakozingela bino, bokolia bana na bino, bokolia misuni ya bana na bino ya mibali mpe ya basi oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, apesi bino.
54 The man that is tender among you, and exceedingly delicate, his eye will be jealous of his brother and of the wife of his bosom, and of the remnant of his sons, whom be might leave behind;
Mobali ya malamu koleka kati na bino, oyo ayokelaka bato mawa, akoyokela lisusu moto mawa te: ezala ndeko na ye to mwasi oyo ye alingaka to bana na ye oyo batikali.
55 so that he will not give to any one of them, of the flesh of his sons which he will eat, because he hath nothing at all left him, —in the siege and in the straitness wherewith thine enemy will straiten thee within all thy gates.
Akopesa na moto moko te kati na bango mosuni ya bana na ye oyo akozala kolia. Yango kaka nde bilei akotikala na yango mpo na pasi oyo banguna na bino bakomonisa bino na tango bakozingela bino na bingumba na bino nyonso.
56 The tender and delicate woman among you who hath never adventured the sole of her foot to set it upon the ground, through delicateness and through tenderness, her eye shall be jealous of the husband of her bosom, and of her own son, and of her own daughter;
Mwasi ya malamu koleka kati na bino, oyo ayokelaka bato mawa, oyo aleki kitoko mpe amonanaka lokola nde matambe na ye enyataka mabele te, akotala na etaleli ya mabe mobali oyo ye alingaka, mwana na ye ya mobali to ya mwasi,
57 both as to her afterbirth that cometh forth from between her feet and as to her children which she shall bear, for she will eat them for want of all things secretly, —in the siege and in the straitness wherewith thine enemy will straiten thee within thine own gates.
mwana oyo awuti kobima na libumu na ye, mpe bana oyo ye moko aboti; pamba te akoluka kolia bango na nkuku, na tango oyo banguna na bino bakozingela bino, mpe na tango ya pasi oyo banguna na bino bakomonisa bino kati na bingumba na bino.
58 If thou wilt not take heed to do all the words of this law, which are written in this scroll, —to revere this glorious and reverend name, Yahweh thy God,
Tango bosaleli te maloba nyonso ya mibeko oyo ekomami na buku oyo mpe botosi te Kombo ya lokumu mpe ya somo, Yawe, Nzambe na bino;
59 then will Yahweh make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, —plagues great and lasting, and diseases grievous and lasting;
Yawe akotindela bino mpe bakitani na bino bitumbu ya somo: bapota minene oyo esilaka te mpe bokono ya makasi oyo esilaka te.
60 and he will bring back on thee all the sickness of Egypt, because of which thou wast afraid, —and they shall cleave unto thee;
Akotindela bino bitumbu nyonso ya Ejipito, oyo bozalaki kobanga mpe yango ekotingama na bino.
61 even every disease and, every plague, which are not written in this scroll of the law, will Yahweh bring up against thee, until thou art destroyed,
Yawe akotindela bino lisusu lolenge nyonso ya bokono mpe bapota oyo ekomami te kati na buku oyo ya Mobeko, kino bokobebisama.
62 And ye shall be left men few in number, whereas ye had become as the stars of the heavens for multitude, —because thou hast not hearkened unto the voice of Yahweh thy God.
Bino oyo bozalaki ebele lokola minzoto na likolo, bokotikala kaka moke; pamba te botosaki te Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
63 And it shall come to pass that as Yahweh rejoiced over you to do you good and to multiply you, so, will Yahweh rejoice over you, to cause you to perish and to destroy you, —and ye shall be torn away, from off the soil, whither thou art going in to possess it;
Ndenge kaka Yawe asepelaki kosalela bino bolamu mpe mpo na kokomisa bino ebele, ndenge wana mpe akosepela koboma bino mpe kobebisa bino; akopikola bino na mokili oyo bozali kokota mpo na kozwa yango.
64 and Yahweh will scatter thee among all the peoples, from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth, —and thou wilt serve there other gods whom thou hast not known—thou nor thy fathers, —of wood and of stone.
Boye, Yawe akopanza bino kati na bikolo nyonso ya mokili mobimba. Kuna bokogumbamela banzambe mosusu: banzambe ya nzete mpe ya mabanga oyo bino mpe bakoko na bino boyebaki te.
65 And among those nations, shalt thou find no ease, neither shall there be a place of rest for the sole of thy foot, —but Yahweh will give unto thee there a trembling heart, and a failing of eyes and faintness of soul.
Kati na bikolo wana, bokozala na kimia te, bokozala na esika te ya kopemisa matambe ya makolo na bino. Kuna Yawe akokomisa bino motema likolo-likolo, miso elemba mpe nzoto elemba.
66 And thy life will be hung up for thee in front, —and thou wilt be in dread by night and by day, and wilt not trust in thy life.
Bokowumela na bomoi oyo ezanga elikya, oyo etonda na kobanga, butu mpe moyi, mpe bokoyeba te ndenge nini bomoi na bino ekosuka.
67 In the morning, thou wilt say—Oh that it were evening! and in the evening, thou wilt say—Oh that it were morning! because of the dread of thy heart which thou wilt dread, and because of the sight of thine eyes which thou wilt see.
Na tongo, bokoloba: « Pokwa ekokoma tango nini? » Mpe na pokwa, bokoloba: « Tongo ekotana tango nini? » Pamba te somo ekotonda na mitema na bino mpo na makambo nyonso oyo miso ekomona.
68 And Yahweh will take thee back again to Egypt in ships, by the way whereof I said unto thee, Thou shalt not again any more see it. And ye will offer yourselves there for sale unto thine enemies as servants and as handmaids with no one to buy.
Yawe Nzambe akozongisa bino na bamasuwa na Ejipito, na mokili oyo nalobaki na bino ete bokomona yango lisusu te. Mpe kuna, bokomiteka bino moko epai ya banguna na bino lokola bawumbu ya mibali mpe ya basi, kasi moto moko te akosomba bino.
