Numbers 19
1 Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize mpe Aron:
2 “I am now giving to you another regulation. Tell the Israeli people to bring to you one reddish-brown cow that has no defects. It must be an animal that (has never been/no one has ever) used for plowing ground.
« Tala malako ya mibeko ya Yawe: Bosenga na bana ya Isalaele ete bamema epai na bino ngombe ya mwasi ya motane ezanga mbeba to litono mpe etikala nanu te komema ekangiseli.
3 Give it to Eleazar, the priest. He must take it outside the camp and slaughter it [and drain the blood in a basin].
Bokopesa yango epai ya Nganga-Nzambe Eleazari. Bongo ye akomema yango na libanda ya molako epai wapi akokata yango kingo na miso na ye.
4 He must dip one of his fingers in the blood and sprinkle some of it seven times [on the ground] near the Sacred Tent.
Na nzela ya mosapi na ye, Nganga-Nzambe Eleazari akozwa makila ya ngombe yango ya mwasi mpe akosopa yango mbala sambo na ngambo ya ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.
5 Then, while Eleazar watches, the cow must be burned completely—its hide, its meat, [the rest of] its blood, and even its dung.
Bongo bakotumba ngombe ya mwasi na miso na ye: poso, mosuni, makila mpe biloko ya kati.
6 Eliezer then must take a stick of cedar wood, a stalk of [a plant named] hyssop, and some scarlet/red yarn, and throw them into the fire where the cow is burning.
Nganga-Nzambe akokamata bakoni ya nzete ya sedele, ya izope, singa ya lino ya motane makasi, mpe akobwaka yango kati na moto oyo ezali kopela mpe ezali kozikisa ngombe ya mwasi.
7 “Then the priest must wash his clothes and bathe. After doing that, he may return to the camp. But he will be unfit for doing any sacred work until that evening.
Sima na yango, Nganga-Nzambe akosukola na mayi bilamba mpe nzoto na ye liboso ete azonga na molako. Atako bongo, Nganga-Nzambe akozala mbindo kino na pokwa.
8 The man who burns the cow must also wash his clothes and bathe, and he will also be unacceptable to me until that evening.
Moto oyo akotumba ngombe akosukola mpe bilamba mpe nzoto na ye; mpe akozala mbindo kino na pokwa.
9 “Then someone who has not become unacceptable to me must gather up the ashes of the cow and put them in a (sacred place/place that is acceptable to me) outside the camp. The ashes must be kept there for the people of Israel to [use when they] mix it with water for the ritual to remove the guilt of sin.
Moto ya peto akokamata putulu ya ngombe mpe akotia yango na libanda ya molako na esika ya peto epai wapi bana ya Isalaele bakobatela yango mpo na kobongisa mayi ya bopetolami; ezali mbeka mpo na masumu.
10 The man who gathers up the ashes of the cow must [also] wash his clothes, and he [also] will be unfit to do any more sacred work until that evening. That is a regulation that will never be changed. It must be obeyed by you Israeli people and by any foreigners who live among you.
Moto oyo akozwa putulu ya ngombe akosukola mpe bilamba na ye mpe akozala mbindo kino na pokwa. Ekozala mobeko ya libela na libela mpo na bana ya Isalaele mpe mpo na mopaya oyo avandi kati na bango.
11 “All those who touch a corpse will be unacceptable to me for seven days.
Moto nyonso oyo akosimba ebembe ya moto, ata mokufi yango azalaki nani, akozala mbindo mikolo sambo.
12 On the third day and on the seventh day [after touching a corpse], in order to become acceptable to me again, [they must have sprinkled on them] some of that water for removing the guilt of their sin. If they do not do that on both of those days, they will continue to be unacceptable to me.
Soki amipetoli na mayi na mokolo ya misato mpe ya minei, akokoma peto; soki te, akozala kaka mbindo.
13 All those who touch a corpse, and do not perform in the correct way the ritual to become acceptable to me again, defile Yahweh’s Sacred Tent. They will no longer be permitted to live among the Israeli people. The water to remove the guilt of sin was not sprinkled on them, so they continue to be unacceptable to me.
Soki amipetoli te sima na ye kosimba ebembe ya moto, abebisi bosantu ya Mongombo ya Yawe. Basengeli kolongola ye na Isalaele, pamba te basopeli ye te mayi ya bopetoli; boye akozala kaka mbindo, mbindo na ye ekokangama ye na nzoto.
14 “There is another ritual that must be performed when someone dies inside a tent. All those who were inside that tent when that person died or who enter that tent will be unacceptable to me for seven days.
Tala mobeko oyo ebongi na kosalela soki moto akufi kati na ndako ya kapo: bato nyonso oyo bakokota na ndako ya kapo mpe ba-oyo bakomizalela na kati bakozala mbindo mikolo sambo.
15 Any jars that are inside that tent that are not covered are not permitted to be used.
Sani nyonso ya kofungwama oyo ekozala na mofinuku te na likolo ekozala mbindo.
16 If someone who is out in a field touches the corpse of someone who was murdered, or who died from natural causes, or if someone touches a bone from some human or touches a grave, that person will be unacceptable to me for seven days.
Moto nyonso oyo asimbi kati na bilanga ebembe ya moto oyo akufi mpo ete moninga na ye moto abomi ye to akufi na liwa nyonso kaka to mpe asimbi mikuwa ya moto to kunda, akozala mbindo mikolo sambo.
17 “For someone like that to become acceptable to me again, some of the ashes from [the cow] that was burned must be taken and put in a jar. Then some fresh water must be poured over the ashes.
Mpo na kopetola moto oyo akomi mbindo, bakokamata putulu ya ngombe ya mwasi oyo batumbi na moto lokola mbeka mpo na masumu, bakotia yango na sani mpe bakosopela yango mayi ya etima.
18 Then someone who is still acceptable to me must take a stalk of [a plant named] hyssop and dip it into the water. Then that person must sprinkle some of the water on the tent where that person died, on the things that are in the tent, and on the people who were in the tent. He must also sprinkle some of that water on any person who touched a human bone or who touched a person who died, or who touched a grave.
Moto oyo azali mbindo te akokamata etape ya izope mpe akotia yango kati na mayi, bongo akosalela yango mpo na kobwaka mayi na ndako ya kapo epai wapi moto akufi, na bisalelo mpe na banzoto ya bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kati na ndako yango; akosala mpe bongo mpo na moto oyo asimbaki mikuwa, ebembe ya moto oyo moninga na ye moto abomaki to akufaki na liwa nyonso kaka to mpe mpo na moto oyo asimbaki kunda.
19 On the third day and on the seventh day after that, the person who is acceptable to me must sprinkle some of that water on those who have become unacceptable to me. On the seventh day, the people who are performing that ritual to become acceptable to me again must wash their clothes and bathe. If they do that, on that evening they will become acceptable to me again.
Na mokolo ya misato mpe ya sambo, moto oyo azali mbindo te akobwakela moto ya mbindo. Bongo na mokolo ya sambo, akopetola ye. Moto oyo bapetoli akosukola bilamba na ye mpe akomisukola nzoto na mayi; boye na pokwa, akokoma peto.
20 “If those who have become unacceptable to me do not become acceptable to me again by doing this, they will no longer be permitted to live among the Israeli people, because they have defiled my Sacred Tent. They did not sprinkle on themselves the water that removes the guilt of their sins, so they remain unacceptable to me.
Kasi soki moto oyo amikomisaki mbindo amipetoli, bakolongola ye kati na lisanga; pamba te akomisi mbindo Esika ya bule ya Yawe. Mpe lokola basopeli ye te mayi ya bopetoli na nzoto, akozala mbindo.
21 That is a law for the Israeli people that will never be changed. Those who sprinkle that water on themselves must then wash their clothes. And anyone who touches that water which removes guilt for sins will remain unacceptable to God until that evening.
Ekozala mpo na bango mobeko ya libela na libela. Moto oyo akobwaka mayi ya bopetoli akosukola bilamba na ye, mpe moto oyo akosimba mayi yango akozala mbindo kino na pokwa.
22 “If someone touches a thing or a person that has become unacceptable to me, that person will remain unacceptable to me until that evening.”
Eloko nyonso oyo moto ya mbindo akosimba ekokoma mbindo, mpe moto nyonso oyo asimbi eloko yango akokoma mbindo kino na pokwa. »
