< Deuteronomy 28 >
1 And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently to the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe [and] to do all his commandments which I command thee this day; that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all 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 on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken to the voice of the LORD 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 increase of thy cattle, and the flocks of thy sheep.
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 store.
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 The LORD shall cause thy enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.
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 The LORD shall command the blessing upon thee in thy store-houses, and in all that thou settest thy hand to: and he shall bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth 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 The LORD shall establish thee a holy people to himself, as he hath sworn to thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, and 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 people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the LORD; and they shall be afraid of thee.
Bongo bato nyonso ya mokili bakomona ete bozali penza bato ya Yawe mpe bakobanga bino.
11 And the LORD shall make thee to abound in goods, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land which the LORD swore to thy fathers to give 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 The LORD shall open to thee his good treasure, the heaven to give rain to thy land in its season, and to bless all the work of thy hand: and thou shalt lend to many nations, and 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 the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if thou shalt hearken to the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do [them]:
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 thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this 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 come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake 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 store.
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 land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.
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 The LORD shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all that thou undertakest to perform, until thou shalt be destroyed, and until thou shalt perish quickly; because of the wickedness of thy doings by which 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 The LORD shall make the pestilence cleave to thee, until he shall have consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest to possess it.
Yawe akotindela bino bokono oyo ebomaka kino akobebisa bino kati na mokili oyo bozali kokota mpo na kozwa.
22 The LORD shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a fever, and with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, and with the sword, and with blasting, and with mildew: and they shall pursue thee until thou dost 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 heaven that [is] over thy head shall be brass, and the earth that [is] under thee [shall be] 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 The LORD shall make the rain of thy land powder and dust: from heaven shall it come down upon thee, until thou art destroyed.
Kati na mokili na bino, Yawe akobongola mvula mpo ete ekoma putulu mpe zelo; yango ekokweya wuta na likolo kino ekobebisa bino.
25 The LORD shall cause thee to be smitten before thy enemies: thou shalt go out one way against them, and flee seven ways before them; and shalt be removed into 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 carcass shall be food to all fowls of the air, and to the beasts of the earth, and no man shall drive [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 The LORD will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the emerods, and with the scab, and with the 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 The LORD shall smite thee with the madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart:
Yawe akotindela bino bokono ya liboma, ya kokufa miso mpe ya mobulu na makanisi.
29 And thou shalt grope at noon-day, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore, and no man shall save [thee].
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 Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her: thou shalt build a house, and thou shalt not dwell in it: thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not gather the grapes of it.
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 Thy ox [shall be] slain before thy eyes, and thou shalt not eat of it: thy ass [shall be] violently taken away from before thy face, and shall not be restored to thee: thy sheep [shall be] given to thy enemies, and thou shalt have none to rescue [them].
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 [shall be] given to another people, and thy eyes shall look, and fail [with longing] for them all the day long: and [there shall be] no might in thy hand.
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 land, and all thy labors, shall be eaten by a nation which thou knowest not: and thou shalt be only oppressed and crushed always:
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 thy eyes which thou shalt see.
Bokobela liboma likolo ya makambo oyo miso na bino ekobanda komona.
35 The LORD shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore botch that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot to the top 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 The LORD shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, to a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and 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 And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a by-word, among all nations whither the LORD shall lead thee.
Bikolo nyonso epai wapi Yawe akomema bino, bakomona bakokima bino lokola eloko ya somo mpe bakobeta masapo mpo na kotiola bino.
38 Thou shalt carry much seed into the field, and shalt gather [but] little: for the locust shall consume it.
Bokolona bankona ebele na bilanga, kasi bokobuka moke; pamba te mabanki ekolia bankona wana.
39 Thou shalt plant vineyards and dress [them], but shalt neither drink [of] the wine, nor 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 Thou shalt have olive-trees throughout all thy coasts, but thou shalt not anoint [thyself] with the oil: for thy olive shall cast [its fruit].
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 Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy them: 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 fruit of thy land shall the locust consume.
Mabanki ekolia banzete na bino nyonso mpe bambuma ya mabele na bino.
43 The stranger that [is] within thee shall rise above thee very high; and thou shalt come down very low.
Mopaya oyo avandi kati na bino akoleka bino na lokumu tango nyonso, kasi bino bokokita se kokita;
44 He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail.
akodefisa bino, kasi bino bokokoka kodefisa ye te; akozala moto, kasi bino bokozala mokila.
45 Moreover, all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou art destroyed: because thou hearkenedst not to the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he 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 for ever.
Bilakeli mabe oyo ekozala elembo mpe makambo ya kokamwa epai na bino mpe epai ya bakitani na bino mpo na libela.
47 Because thou didst not serve the LORD thy God with joyfulness and with gladness of heart, for the 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 thy enemies which the LORD shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all [things]: and he shall 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 The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, [as swift] as the eagle flieth, a nation whose language thou shalt 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, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor show favor to the young:
Bato ya ekolo yango bazali na bilongi ya kanda-kanda, batosaka te bato oyo bazali mikolo mpe bayokelaka bilenge mawa te.
51 And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy land, until thou art destroyed: which [also] shall not leave thee [either] corn, wine, or oil, [or] the increase of thy cattle, or flocks of thy sheep, until he hath destroyed thee.
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 besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fortified walls come down, in which thou didst trust, throughout all thy land; and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land which the LORD thy God hath given 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 shalt eat the fruit of thy own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters which the LORD thy God hath given thee, in the siege and in the straitness with which thy enemies shall distress 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 [So that] the man [that is] tender among you, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil towards his brother, and towards the wife of his bosom, and towards the remnant of his children whom he shall leave:
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 of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat: because he hath nothing left him in the siege and in the straitness with which thy enemies shall distress thee in 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 would not venture to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil towards the husband of her bosom, and towards her son, and towards her 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 And towards her young one, her own offspring, and towards her children which she shall bear: for she shall eat them for want of all [things] secretly in the siege and straitness with which thy enemy shall distress thee in thy 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 observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, THE LORD 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 the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, [even] great plagues, and of long continuance, and severe sicknesses, and of long continuance.
Yawe akotindela bino mpe bakitani na bino bitumbu ya somo: bapota minene oyo esilaka te mpe bokono ya makasi oyo esilaka te.
60 Moreover, he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, of which thou wast afraid; and they shall cleave to thee.
Akotindela bino bitumbu nyonso ya Ejipito, oyo bozalaki kobanga mpe yango ekotingama na bino.
61 Also every sickness, and every plague which [is] not written in the book of this law, them will the LORD bring upon 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 few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude; because thou wouldst not obey the voice of the LORD 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 the LORD rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you; so the LORD will rejoice over you to destroy you, and to bring you to naught; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest 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 the LORD shall scatter thee among all people from the one end of the earth even to the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, [even] wood and 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 these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind:
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 shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have no assurance of 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 shalt say, O that it were evening, and at evening thou shalt say, O that it were morning! for the fear of thy heart with which thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thy eyes which thou shalt 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 the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way of which I have said to thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold to your enemies for bond-men and bond-women, and no man shall buy [you].
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.
