< Leviticus 24 >

1 Yahweh also said to Moses/me,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
2 “Command the Israeli people to continually bring to you clear oil made from pressed olives to burn in the lamps [in the Sacred Tent], in order that those lamps will burn all the time.
« Pesa mitindo na bana ya Isalaele ete bamemela yo mafuta ya olive ya peto mpo na minda, mpo ete minda ekoka kopela tango nyonso.
3 Outside the curtain of the Very Holy Place, Aaron must take care of the lamps in my presence continually, in order that they will burn all during the night. That regulation must be obeyed forever.
Ezali kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, libanda ya rido oyo ezali liboso ya Sanduku ya Litatoli, nde Aron akobanda kopelisa minda tango nyonso liboso ya Yawe, kobanda na pokwa kino na tongo. Ezali mobeko ya libela mpo na milongo na bino nyonso.
4 Those lampstands that burn in my presence must be taken care of continually.
Minda ekozala likolo ya etelemiselo ya minda, esalema na wolo ya peto, liboso ya Yawe; bakobongisa yango tango nyonso.
5 “Also, [each week] you must take some fine flour and bake twelve [very big] loaves of bread, using about four quarts/liters of flour for each loaf.
Okozwa farine mpe okolamba bagato zomi na mibale, okosalela biteni mibale kati na biteni zomi ya efa mpo na gato moko na moko.
6 Put the loaves in two rows, with six loaves in each row, on the table covered with pure gold, in my presence.
Okotanda yango na milongo mibale, gato motoba na molongo moko, likolo ya mesa oyo esalema na wolo ya peto, liboso ya Yawe.
7 Along each row, place [in some gold cups] some pure incense to be burned to be an offering to me instead of the bread.
Na molongo moko na moko, okosopa ansa ya peto oyo ekotumbama na esika ya gato lokola likabo bazikisa na moto mpo na Yawe, mpe ekozala ekaniseli.
8 New/Fresh loaves of bread must be put [on the table] each Sabbath day, to signify the agreement that will never end, that I have made with you Israeli people.
Mikolo nyonso ya Saba, bokobonza lipa yango liboso ya Yawe na kombo ya bana ya Isalaele lokola boyokani ya libela.
9 The bread [that is taken off the table] belongs to Aaron and his sons. They must eat it in a holy place, because it is a very holy part of the offerings that are given to me by being burned.”
Gato yango ekozala mpo na Aron mpe bana na ye ya mibali; bana na ye ya mibali bakolia yango na Esika ya bule, pamba te ezali eteni ya bule koleka kati na biteni na bango oyo bazwaka na makabo bazikisa na moto mpo na Yawe. Ezali mobeko mpo na libela. »
10 There was a man whose mother’s name was Shelomith; she was an Israeli whose father was Dibri from the tribe of Dan. And that man’s father was from Egypt. One day that man and another Israeli man started to fight inside the camp. And while they were fighting, that man cursed Yahweh [MTY].
Ezalaki na mwana mobali moko oyo mama na ye azalaki moto ya Isalaele mpe tata na ye, moto ya Ejipito; apusanaki kati na bana ya Isalaele mpe abundisaki moto ya Isalaele kati na molako.
Mwana mobali ya mwana mwasi ya Isalaele atiolaki Kombo ya Yawe mpe alakelaki yango mabe, boye bamemaki ye epai ya Moyize. Kombo ya mama na ye ezalaki « Shelomiti. » Shelomiti azalaki mwana mwasi ya Dibiri, kati na libota ya Dani.
12 So the Israeli people seized him and guarded him until they could find out what Yahweh would reveal to them [that they should do to that man].
Batiaki ye na boloko kino kozela ete Yawe alakisa bango mokano na Ye.
13 Then Yahweh said to Moses/me,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
14 “[Tie up and] take outside the camp the man who has cursed me. There all those who heard what he said must put their hands on his head [to indicate that he is guilty], and then all the people must [kill him by] throwing stones at him.
« Mema na libanda ya molako moto oyo atioli Nzambe. Bato nyonso oyo bayokaki ye, bakotia maboko na bango na moto na ye, mpe bato nyonso ya lingomba bakobamba ye mabanga.
15 Tell the Israelis, ‘If anyone curses me, he must (endure the consequences/be punished).
Loba na bana ya Isalaele: ‹ Soki moto alakeli Nzambe na ye mabe, amemi ngambo;
16 So anyone who curses me [MTY] must be executed. All the people must throw stones at him. It does not matter if he is a foreigner or an Israeli citizen; anyone who curses me must be executed.’
soki moto atioli Kombo ya Yawe, basengeli koboma ye: bato nyonso ya lingomba basengeli kobamba ye mabanga. Azala mopaya to mwana mboka, soki atioli Kombo ya Yawe, basengeli koboma ye.
17 “Also, If anyone murders another person, he must be executed.
Soki moto abomi moto, basengeli koboma ye.
18 And anyone who kills [another person’s] animal must give that person a live animal to replace the one that he killed.
Soki moto abomi nyama ya moto mosusu, asengeli kozongisa nyama ya bomoi na esika ya nyama oyo ekufi: kolanda mobeko ya bomoi mpo na bomoi.
19 And if one person injures another person, the injured person is allowed to injure the person who injured him in the same way:
Soki moto azokisi moninga na ye, bakosala ye ndenge asalaki moninga:
20 If someone breaks one of another person’s bones, that person is allowed to break one of the bones of the person who injured him. If someone gouges out an eye of another person, that person is allowed to gouge out the eye of the person who injured him. If someone knocks out the tooth of another person, that person is allowed to knock out one of his teeth. What is done to the offender must be the same as what he did to the other person.
soki abuki eteni ya nzoto, ye mpe bakobuka ye eteni ya nzoto; soki atoboli liso, ye mpe bakotobola ye liso; soki abuki linu, ye mpe bakobuka ye linu; ndenge azokisi moto mosusu, ndenge wana mpe bakozokisa ye.
21 Whoever kills [another person’s] animal must give that person a live animal to replace the one that he killed, but anyone who murders another person must be executed.
Moto nyonso oyo abomi nyama ya moninga na ye, akozongisa nyama mosusu; kasi oyo abomi moto, basengeli koboma ye.
22 That law applies to you Israelis and and also to the foreigners who live among you; I, Yahweh your God [am the one who has commanded it].”
Ezala mopaya to mwana mboka, bino nyonso bozali na mobeko moko; Ngai nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino. › »
23 Then Moses/I told the Israelis [what they must do to the man who cursed Yahweh], so they took the man outside the camp and [killed him by] throwing stones at him. They did what Yahweh commanded Moses/me [to tell them to do].
Bongo Moyize alobaki na bana ya Isalaele; mpe babimisaki na libanda ya molako moto oyo alakelaki Nzambe mabe mpe babambaki ye mabanga. Bana ya Isalaele basalaki kolanda ndenge Yawe atindaki Moyize.
