Exodus 21
1 Now, these are the regulations which thou shalt put before them.
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Tala mibeko oyo okoyebisa bana ya Isalaele:
2 When thou shalt acquire a servant who is a Hebrew, six years, shall he serve, —but in the seventh shall he go out freely—for nought.
« Soki bosombi Mo-Ebre moko lokola mowumbu, akosalela bino mibu motoba; na mobu ya sambo, akozwa bonsomi mpe akofuta eloko moko te.
3 If, by himself, he came in, by himself, shall he go out, —if he was married, then shall his wife go out with him.
Soki azalaki monzemba tango ayaki, asengeli kokende ye moko; kasi soki azalaki na mwasi tango ayaki, mwasi na ye asengeli kokende na ye elongo.
4 If his lord gave him a wife, and she have borne him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall be her lords, and, he shall go out by himself.
Soki nkolo na ye apesaki ye mwasi mpe mwasi yango abotelaki ye bana mibali to bana basi, mwasi mpe bana bakozala ya nkolo na ye; mobali akokende ye moko.
5 But, if the servant shall plainly say, I love my lord, and my wife and my sons, —I will not go out free,
Kasi soki mowumbu alobi: ‹ Nalingaka nkolo na ngai, mwasi na ngai mpe bana na ngai, nalingi te kozwa bonsomi, ›
6 then shall his lord bring him near unto God, and shall bring him near unto the door, or unto the door-post, —and his lord shall pierce his ear with an awl, so shall he serve him all his life.
wana nkolo na ye asengeli komema ye liboso ya basambisi; akomema ye na ezipelo ya ekuke to na mabaya oyo esimbaka ekuke mpe akotobola ye litoyi na motonga; mpe mowumbu akosalela nkolo yango mpo na libela.
7 And when a man shall sell his daughter to be a handmaid, she shall not go out according to the out-going of the men-servants,
Soki moto ateki mwana na ye ya mwasi lokola mwasi mowumbu, mwana yango akozwa bonsomi te ndenge bawumbu bazwaka yango.
8 If she is uncomely in the eyes of her lord, who hath not assigned her in marriage, then shall he suffer her to be redeemed: to a strange people, shall he not have power to sell her in that he hath dealt treacherously with her.
Soki mwana mwasi asepelisi te nkolo oyo aponaki ye mpo ete azala mowumbu na ye, nkolo yango akotika ete mwana mwasi asikolama; azali na ndingisa te ya koteka ye epai ya bapaya. Kasi soki ateki ye, wana asambwisi ye.
9 And if, to his son, he assign her, according to the custom for daughters, shall he do for her.
Soki aponaki mwana mwasi yango mpo ete azala mwasi ya mwana na ye ya mobali, asengeli kokokisa makambo oyo mibeko esengaka mpo na kobala mwasi.
10 If he take to himself another, her food her clothing, and her marriage-right, shall he not withdraw.
Soki abali mwasi mosusu, akolongola eloko te na oyo etali kolia, kolata mpe oyo basalelaka mwasi ya libala.
11 But if these three, he will not do for her, then shall she go out for nought, without silver.
Soki apimeli ye ata eloko moko kati na biloko oyo misato, wana mwasi oyo akoki kokende na bonsomi mpe akofuta eloko moko te.
12 He that smiteth a man, so that he die, shall surely be put to death.
Moto oyo akobeta moninga na ye kino koboma ye, basengeli koboma ye.
13 But he who hath not lain in wait, but, God, hath occasioned him to come to his hand, then will I appoint for thee a place, whither he may flee.
Nzokande, soki azalaki na likanisi ya koboma te, kasi Nzambe atiki ete yango esalema na nzela ya maboko na ye, moto wana akokima na esika oyo Ngai Yawe nakopona.
14 But, when a man shall act presumptuously against his neighbour to slay him with guile, from mine altar, shalt thou take him to die.
Kasi soki moto akaneli moninga na ye mpe aluki koboma ye na mayele mabe, okomema ye mosika ya etumbelo na Ngai mpo na koboma ye.
15 And, he that smiteth his father or his mother, shall, surely be put to death.
Moto oyo akobeta tata to mama na ye, asengeli kozwa etumbu ya kufa.
16 And, he that stealeth a man of the sons of Israel, and selleth him, or he be found in his hand, shall, surely be put to death.
Moto oyo akokanga moto mosusu na makasi mpo na kokima na ye, ezala soki ateki moto yango to bakangi ye na moto yango na maboko, asengeli kozwa etumbu ya kufa.
17 And he who revileth his father or his mother, shall, surely be put to death.
Moto oyo akolakela tata to mama na ye mabe, asengeli kozwa etumbu ya kufa.
18 And when men strive together, and one shall smite the other, with a stone or with his fist, —and he die not, but shall fall to his bed; —
Soki bato baswani, bongo moko abeti moninga likofi to libanga; mpe moto oyo babeti likofi to libanga akufi te kasi abeli makasi;
19 if he rise and shall walk abroad on his staff, then shall he that smote him be acquitted, —only, for his loss of time, he shall pay, and, shall surely heal, him.
soki moto oyo babeti atelemi mpe atamboli na nzete kino na libanda, bakokatela moto oyo abetaki ye etumbu te, kasi akofuta kaka mikolo oyo moto yango azalaki kosala te mpe akosalisa ye kino akobika.
20 And when a man shall smite his servant or his handmaid with a rod, and he die under his hand, he shall, surely be avenged;
Soki moto abeti mowumbu na ye ya mobali to mwasi mowumbu na ye, bongo mowumbu yango akufi na mbala moko, moto wana asengeli kozwa etumbu.
21 nevertheless if, for a day or for two days, he continue, he shall not be avenged, for, his silver, he is.
Kasi soki mowumbu yango awumeli lisusu na bomoi mokolo moko to mibale, wana nkolo na ye akozwa etumbu te, pamba te asombaki ye na mbongo.
22 And when men strive together and push against a woman with child, and she miscarry, but there is no other mischief, he shall, surely be fined, according as the woman’s husband shall lay upon him, but he shall give it through judges.
Soki mibali, wana bazali kobunda, batutani na mwasi ya zemi, bongo mwasi yango aboti mwana matsombe mpe likama mosusu emonani te, wana basengeli kofuta lomande ndenge mobali ya mwasi yango akokata kolanda mokano ya basambisi.
23 But, if mischief follow, then shalt thou give life for life;
Kasi soki likama ezali, okofuta bomoi mpo na bomoi:
24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, —hand for hand, foot for foot,
liso mpo na liso, linu mpo na linu, loboko mpo na loboko, lokolo mpo na lokolo,
25 brand for brand, wound for wound, —stripe for stripe.
kozika mpo na kozika, pota mpo na pota, litutu mpo na litutu.
26 And, when a man smiteth the eye of his servant, or the eye of his handmaid, and destroyeth it, he shall send him forth, free, for his eye;
Soki moto abeti mowumbu na ye ya mobali to mwasi mowumbu na ye na liso, mpe liso yango ekufi, moto yango akopesa bonsomi na mowumbu mpo na liso na ye.
27 or, if, the tooth of his servant or the tooth of his handmaid, he knock out, he shall send him forth, free, for his tooth.
Soki abuki linu ya mowumbu na ye ya mobali to ya mwasi mowumbu na ye, akopesa ye bonsomi mpo na linu na ye.
28 And when an ox goreth a man or a woman, and death ensueth, the ox shall, surely be stoned and his flesh shall not be eaten, and the owner of the ox, shall be quit.
Soki ngombe ebomi moto na maseke, basengeli koboma ngombe yango na mabanga, mpe bakolia mosuni na yango te; nzokande nkolo na yango akozwa etumbu te.
29 But, if, the ox, was wont to gore before that time and it hath been attested to his owner, and he hath not proceeded to put him under guard, and he causeth the death of man or woman, the ox, shall be stoned, and, his owner also, shall be put to death.
Soki ngombe ezali na momesano ya kobeta bato maseke, bongo bakebisi makasi nkolo na yango, kasi ye abateli kaka ngombe na ye malamu te mpe yango ebomi moto; basengeli koboma ngombe yango na mabanga mpe nkolo na yango asengeli kozwa etumbu ya kufa.
30 If, a sin-covering, be laid on him, then shall he give a ransom for his life, according to whatsoever may be laid on him:
Kasi soki basengi ye lomande mpo na kosikola bomoi na ye, akofuta nyonso oyo bakosenga ye.
31 if, a son, he gore or, a daughter, he gore, according to this regulation, shall it be done to him;
Bakosalela mpe mobeko oyo soki ngombe ebeti mwana mobali to mwana mwasi maseke.
32 if, a servant the ox gore, or a handmaid, thirty shekels of silver, shall he give to his lord, and, the ox, shall be stoned.
Soki ngombe ebeti mowumbu ya mobali to mwasi mowumbu maseke, nkolo na yango asengeli kofuta mbongo ya bibende, tuku misato, epai ya nkolo ya mowumbu, mpe bakobamba ngombe yango mabanga.
33 And when a man openeth a pit, or when a man diggeth a pit, and doth not cover it, —and there falleth thereinto an ox or an ass,
Soki moto atiki libulu polele to atimoli libulu mpe azipi yango te, bongo ngombe to ane ezindi kuna;
34 the owner of the pit, shall make it good, silver, shall he pay back to the owner thereof, —and the dead beast, shall be his.
nkolo libulu asengeli kofuta epai ya nkolo nyama mbongo oyo ekokani na motuya ya nyama oyo esili kokufa, mpe nyama yango ekokoma ya ye.
35 And when the ox of one man thrusteth the ox of his neighbour so that it dieth, then shall they sell the live ox and divide the silver thereof, and the dead ox also, shall they divide,
Soki ngombe ya moto moko ebomi ngombe ya moto mosusu, esengeli koteka ngombe oyo ezali na bomoi mpe kokabola na kati-kati mbongo mpe ngombe oyo esili kokufa.
36 Or if it was known that, an ox, was, wont to gore, before that time, and his owner proceeded not to put him under guard, he shall surely make good, —an ox for the ox, and, the dead one, shall be his.
Kasi soki eyebani ete ngombe yango emesana kobeta bato maseke, bongo nkolo na yango abateli yango malamu te; wana asengeli kofuta ngombe mpo na ngombe, mpe ngombe ya kokufa ekokoma ya ye.
