Deuteronomy 15
1 At the end of [every] seven years thou shalt make a release.
Na suka ya mibu sambo nyonso, bosengeli kosundola baniongo.
2 And this [is] the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth [aught] to his neighbor shall release [it]; he shall not exact [it] of his neighbor, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD'S release.
Tala ndenge esengeli kosalema: moto nyonso oyo adefisaki ndeko na ye, mwana ya Isalaele, mbongo, asengeli kotikela ye yango. Asengeli te kosenga eloko epai ya ndeko to moninga na ye, moto ya Isalaele, pamba te tango ya kotika baniongo mpo na lokumu na Yawe esili kokoka.
3 Of a foreigner thou mayest exact [it again]: but [that] which is thine with thy brother thy hand shall release:
Bokoki kosenga niongo epai ya mopaya, kasi bosengeli kosundola baniongo nyonso oyo bandeko na bino badefaki epai na bino.
4 Save when there shall be no poor among you; for the LORD shall greatly bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance to possess it:
Nzokande, ebongaki te ete mobola azala kati na bino; pamba te kati na mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akopesa bino mpo ete bokamata yango lokola libula, akopambola bino koleka,
5 Only if thou shalt carefully hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command thee this day.
soki botosi malamu Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bosaleli malamu mitindo oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo.
6 For the LORD thy God shall bless thee, as he promised thee: and thou shalt lend to many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over thee.
Pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akopambola bino ndenge alakaki; mpe bino bokodefisa na bikolo ebele, kasi bokodefa te. Bokokonza bikolo ebele, kasi ekolo moko te ekokonza bino.
7 If there shall be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD the God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thy heart, nor shut thy hand from thy poor brother:
Soki mobola moko amonani kati na bandeko na yo na bingumba ya mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, azali kopesa yo; okokangela ye motema te mpe okoboya te kosunga ndeko na yo mobola.
8 But thou shalt open thy hand wide to him, and shalt surely lend him sufficient for his need, [in that] which he wanteth.
Nzokande, okofungolela ye maboko mpe okodefisa ye na motema moko, nyonso oyo akozala na yango na bosenga.
9 Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thy eye shall be evil against thy poor brother, and thou shalt give him naught; and he shall cry to the LORD against thee, and it shall be sin to thee.
Keba ete motema na yo ezala na makanisi ya mabe te mpe eloba na yo te: « Mobu ya sambo ekomi pene, mobu ya kotika baniongo, » mpo ete otala ndeko na yo mobola na ndenge ya mabe mpe ozanga kopesa ye eloko. Mpe wana ye akolelalela epai na Yawe na tina na yo, okomema ngambo ya masumu na yo.
10 Thou shalt surely give him, and thy heart shall not be grieved when thou givest to him: because that for this thing the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy works, and in all that thou puttest thy hand to.
Osengeli kopesa ye na motema ya esengo kasi na mitema mibale te; bongo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopambola yo na misala na yo nyonso mpe na eloko nyonso oyo maboko na yo ekosimba.
11 For the poor shall never cease from the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thy hand wide to thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.
Nzokande lokola babola bakozala kaka kati na mokili, ngai nazali kotinda bino ete bofungola maboko na bino epai ya bandeko na bino, epai ya babola mpe epai bato nyonso oyo bakelela kati na mokili na bino.
12 [And] if thy brother, a Hebrew man, or a Hebrew woman, shall be sold to thee, and serve thee six years; then in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee.
Soki moko kati na bandeko na yo, Mo-Ebre, azala mobali to mwasi, amiteki ye moko epai na yo, akosalela yo mibu motoba; na mobu ya sambo, okotika ye kokende na bonsomi.
13 And when thou sendest him out free from thee, thou shalt not let him depart empty:
Mpe tango okotika ye, okozongisa ye maboko pamba te;
14 Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and out of thy floor, and out of thy wine-press: [of that] with which the LORD thy God hath blessed thee thou shalt give to him.
okopesa ye na motema ya esengo ndambo na yo ya bibwele, ya ble mpe ya vino; okopesa ye ndenge kaka Yawe, Nzambe na yo, apambolaki yo.
15 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bond-man in the land of Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee: therefore I command thee this thing this day.
Bokanisa ete bino mpe bozalaki bawumbu na Ejipito; mpe Yawe, Nzambe na bino, asikolaki bino. Yango wana, napesi bino mobeko oyo na mokolo ya lelo.
16 And it shall be, if he shall say to thee, I will not leave thee; because he loveth thee and thy house, because he is well with thee;
Kasi soki alobi na yo: « Naboyi kotika yo, » mpo ete alingaka yo elongo na libota na yo mpe azalaka na esengo ya kovanda elongo na yo,
17 Then thou shalt take an awl, and thrust [it] through his ear into the door, and he shall be thy servant for ever. And also to thy maid-servant thou shalt do likewise.
wana okozwa motonga, okotia litoyi na ye na ezipelo ya ekuke mpe okotobola yango. Na bongo, akokoma mowumbu na yo mpo na libela. Okosala mpe ndenge moko mpo na mwasi mowumbu.
18 It shall not seem hard to thee, when thou sendest him away free from thee; for he hath been of double the worth of a hired servant [to thee], in serving thee six years: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all that thou doest.
Komona yango likambo ya pasi te kotika mowumbu na yo na bonsomi, pamba te mosala oyo asaleli yo na mibu motoba ezali na litomba mbala mibale koleka litomba ya moto oyo ozwa na mosala. Mpe Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopambola yo na nyonso oyo okosala.
19 All the firstling males that come of thy herd and of thy flock thou shalt sanctify to the LORD thy God: thou shalt do no work with the firstling of thy bullock, nor shear the firstling of thy sheep.
Bokotia pembeni mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mwana mobali nyonso ya liboso oyo akobotama kati na bangombe, bameme mpe bantaba na bino. Kati na bitonga na bino, bokotia na mosala te bana ya liboso ya bangombe na bino mpe bokolongola te bapwale ya bana ya liboso.
20 Thou shalt eat [it] before the LORD thy God year by year in the place which the LORD shall choose, thou and thy household.
Mibu nyonso, bino elongo na mabota na bino, bokolia bibwele yango na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, na esika oyo akopona.
21 And if there is [any] blemish in it, [as if it is] lame, or blind, [or hath] any ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it to the LORD thy God.
Soki ebwele yango ezali na mbeba to ezali tengu-tengu to ekufa miso to soki ezali na mbeba mosusu ya makasi, bokoki kobonza yango te epai na Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
22 Thou shalt eat it within thy gates: the unclean and the clean [person shall eat it] alike, as the roebuck, and as the hart.
Bokolia yango kati na bingumba na bino: moto nyonso, azala mbindo to peto, akolia yango ndenge baliaka mboloko to mbuli.
23 Only thou shalt not eat its blood; thou shalt pour it upon the ground as water.
Kasi bokolia makila te, bosopa yango na mabele lokola mayi.
