Exodus 5
1 And afterwards have Moses and Aaron entered, and they say unto Pharaoh, 'Thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Send My people away, and they keep a feast to Me in the wilderness;'
Sima na yango, Moyize mpe Aron bakendeki epai ya Faraon mpe balobaki: — Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, alobi: « Tika bato na Ngai kokende kosala feti na esobe mpo na lokumu na Ngai. »
2 and Pharaoh saith, 'Who [is] Jehovah, that I hearken to His voice, to send Israel away? I have not known Jehovah, and Israel also I do not send away.'
Faraon azongisaki: — Ye Yawe nde nani mpo ete ngai natosa ye mpe natika Isalaele kokende? Nayebi ye te mpe nakotika te ete Isalaele akende.
3 And they say, 'The God of the Hebrews hath met with us, let us go, we pray thee, a journey of three days into the wilderness, and we sacrifice to Jehovah our God, lest He meet us with pestilence or with sword.'
Balobaki: — Nzambe ya Ba-Ebre akutanaki na biso. Sik’oyo, tika biso totambola mikolo misato kati na esobe mpo ete tokobonzela Yawe, Nzambe na biso, mbeka; noki te akoboma biso na bokono to na mopanga.
4 And the king of Egypt saith unto them, 'Why, Moses and Aaron, do ye free the people from its works? go to your burdens.'
Kasi mokonzi ya Ejipito alobaki: — Moyize mpe Aron, mpo na nini bozali kopekisa bato kosala misala na bango? Bozonga na mosala na bino!
5 Pharaoh also saith, 'Lo, numerous now [is] the people of the land, and ye have caused them to cease from their burdens!'
Faraon abakisaki lisusu: — Botala! Bato oyo bakomi ebele kati na mokili, bongo bino bozali kopekisa bango kosala mosala!
6 And Pharaoh commandeth, on that day, the exactors among the people and its authorities, saying,
Kaka na mokolo wana, Faraon apesaki mitindo oyo epai ya bakambi oyo balandelaka misala makasi ya bawumbu mpe na bakapita ya bana ya Isalaele:
7 'Ye do not add to give straw to the people for the making of the bricks, as heretofore — they go and have gathered straw for themselves;
— Bokopesa lisusu matiti te epai ya bato oyo mpo na kosala babiliki ndenge bozalaki kopesa bango liboso; botika bango moko bakende kolokota matiti na bango.
8 and the proper quantity of the bricks which they are making heretofore ye do put on them, ye do not diminish from it, for they are remiss, therefore they are crying, saying, Let us go, let us sacrifice to our God;
Kasi botinda bango kosala kaka motango ya babiliki oyo basalaka wuta kala, bokitisa motango na yango te. Bazali bagoyigoyi, yango wana bazali koganga: « Tika biso tokende kobonzela Nzambe na biso mbeka! »
9 let the service be heavy on the men, and let them work at it, and not be dazzled by lying words.'
Bokomisa makasi misala na bango mpo ete bakoma na mosala ebele mpe batia matoyi te na makambo ya lokuta.
10 And the exactors of the people, and its authorities, go out, and speak unto the people, saying, 'Thus said Pharaoh, I do not give you straw,
Bongo bakambi oyo balandelaka misala makasi ya bawumbu mpe bakapita ya bana ya Isalaele babimaki mpe balobaki na bato: — Tala makambo oyo Faraon alobi: « Nakopesa bino lisusu matiti te.
11 ye — go ye, take for yourselves straw where ye find [it], for there is nothing of your service diminished.'
Bokende kozwa matiti bino moko na esika oyo bokoki komona yango! Kasi motango ya babiliki oyo bakatela bino ekokita ata moke te. »
12 And the people is scattered over all the land of Egypt, to gather stubble for straw,
Boye bana ya Isalaele bapanzanaki na Ejipito mobimba mpo na kolokota matiti ya kotumba na yango babiliki.
13 and the exactors are making haste, saying, 'Complete your works, the matter of a day in its day, as when there is straw.'
Bakambi oyo balandelaka misala makasi ya bawumbu bazalaki kotindika bango na makasi mpe koloba: — Bokokisa motango ya babiliki oyo bakatela bino mpo na mokolo na mokolo lokola na tango oyo bazalaki kopesa bino matiti!
14 And the authorities of the sons of Israel, whom the exactors of Pharaoh have placed over them, are beaten, saying, 'Wherefore have ye not completed your portion in making brick as heretofore, both yesterday and to-day?'
Bakambi oyo Faraon aponaki mpo na kolandela misala makasi ya bawumbu babetaki bakapita ya bana ya Isalaele oyo bango batiaki mpe batunaki bango: — Mpo na nini lobi oyo eleki mpe lelo bokokisi te motango ya babiliki oyo bosalaka wuta kala?
15 And the authorities of the sons of Israel come in and cry unto Pharaoh, saying, 'Why dost thou thus to thy servants?
Bakengeli ya bana ya Isalaele bakendeki kolela epai ya Faraon: — Mpo na nini ozali kosala basali na yo boye?
16 Straw is not given to thy servants, and they are saying to us, Make bricks, and lo, thy servants are smitten — and thy people hath sinned.'
Bazali kopesa lisusu te matiti epai ya basali na yo, nzokande bazali koloba na biso: « Bosala babiliki! » Sik’oyo tala, basali na yo bazali kobetama, kasi mbeba ezali epai ya bato na yo moko.
17 And he saith, 'Remiss — ye are remiss, therefore ye are saying, Let us go, let us sacrifice to Jehovah;
Faraon alobaki: — Bagoyigoyi! Bozali penza bagoyigoyi! Yango wana bozali koloba: « Tika biso tokende kobonzela Yawe mbeka. »
18 and now, go, serve; and straw is not given to you, and the measure of bricks ye do give.'
Sik’oyo, bozonga na mosala! Bakopesa bino lisusu matiti te, kasi bokosala kaka motango ya babiliki oyo bakatela bino.
19 And the authorities of the sons of Israel see them in affliction, saying, 'Ye do not diminish from your bricks; the matter of a day in its day.'
Bakengeli ya bana ya Isalaele bamonaki ete bakomi na pasi koleka tango bayebisaki bango: « Motango ya babiliki oyo bakatela bino mpo na mokolo na mokolo ekokita te. »
20 And they meet Moses and Aaron standing to meet them, in their coming out from Pharaoh,
Tango batikaki Faraon, batombokelaki Moyize mpe Aron oyo bazalaki kozela bango.
21 and say unto them, 'Jehovah look upon you, and judge, because ye have caused our fragrance to stink in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants — to give a sword into their hand to slay us.'
Balobaki: — Tika ete Yawe atala bino mpe asambisa bino! Bokomisi biso eloko ya nkele liboso ya Faraon mpe ya basali na ye mpe botie mopanga na maboko na bango mpo ete baboma biso!
22 And Moses turneth back unto Jehovah, and saith, 'Lord, why hast Thou done evil to this people? why [is] this? — Thou hast sent me!
Boye Moyize abalukaki epai na Yawe mpe abondelaki: — Nkolo! Mpo na nini ozali komemela bato oyo pasi? Boni, ezali mpo na yango nde otindaki ngai?
23 and since I have come unto Pharaoh, to speak in Thy name, he hath done evil to this people, and Thou hast not at all delivered Thy people.'
Wuta tango nakendeki koloba na Faraon na Kombo na Yo, Faraon akomi konyokola bato oyo, bongo Yo ozali kosala ata eloko moke te mpo na kokangola bango!
