Leviticus 18
1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
2 'Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, I [am] Jehovah your God;
« Yebisa bana ya Isalaele: ‹ Ngai nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
3 according to the work of the land of Egypt in which ye have dwelt ye do not, and according to the work of the land of Canaan whither I am bringing you in, ye do not, and in their statutes ye walk not.
Bokoki te kosala makambo ndenge esalemaka na Ejipito epai wapi bozalaki kovanda to na Kanana epai wapi nazali komema bino.
4 'My judgments ye do, and My statutes ye keep, to walk in them; I [am] Jehovah your God;
Bosengeli kotosa bobele mibeko mpe bikateli na Ngai. Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
5 and ye have kept My statutes and My judgments which man doth and liveth in them; I [am] Jehovah.
Bobatela mitindo mpe mibeko na Ngai, pamba te moto oyo akosalela yango akobika bomoi na ye na nzela na yango. Nazali Yawe.
6 'None of you unto any relation of his flesh doth draw near to uncover nakedness; I [am] Jehovah.
Mobali moko te akosangisa nzoto na mwasi ya libota na ye penza. Nazali Yawe.
7 'The nakedness of thy father and the nakedness of thy mother thou dost not uncover, she [is] thy mother; thou dost not uncover her nakedness.
Okosambwisa te tata na yo na kosangisa nzoto na mama na yo. Lokola azali mama na yo, kosambwisa ye te.
8 'The nakedness of the wife of thy father thou dost not uncover; it [is] the nakedness of thy father.
Okosangisa nzoto te na mwasi mosusu ya tata na yo, soki te okosambwisa tata na yo.
9 'The nakedness of thy sister, daughter of thy father, or daughter of thy mother, born at home or born without; thou dost not uncover their nakedness.
Okosangisa nzoto te na ndeko na yo ya mwasi, ezala na mwana mwasi ya tata na yo to ya mama na yo, oyo abotami na ndako to na libanda ya ndako.
10 'The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's daughter: thou dost not uncover their nakedness; for theirs [is] thy nakedness.
Okosangisa nzoto te na mwana mwasi ya mwana na yo ya mobali to ya mwasi; kosambwisa ye te.
11 'The nakedness of a daughter of thy father's wife, begotten of thy father, she [is] thy sister; thou dost not uncover her nakedness.
Okosangisa nzoto te na mwana mwasi ya mwasi ya tata na yo, azali ndeko na yo ya mwasi.
12 'The nakedness of a sister of thy father thou dost not uncover; she [is] a relation of thy father.
Okosangisa nzoto te na ndeko mwasi ya tata na yo, azali tata mwasi na yo.
13 'The nakedness of thy mother's sister thou dost not uncover; for she [is] thy mother's relation.
Okosangisa nzoto te na ndeko mwasi ya mama na yo, azali mama leki to mama kulutu na yo.
14 'The nakedness of thy father's brother thou dost not uncover; unto his wife thou dost not draw near; she [is] thine aunt.
Okosambwisa te ndeko mobali ya tata na yo na kosangisa nzoto na mwasi na ye. Azali mama na yo.
15 'The nakedness of thy daughter-in-law thou dost not uncover; she [is] thy son's wife; thou dost not uncover her nakedness.
Okosangisa nzoto te na bokilo na yo. Azali mwasi ya mwana na yo, kosangisa na ye nzoto te.
16 'The nakedness of thy brother's wife thou dost not uncover; it [is] thy brother's nakedness.
Okosambwisa te ndeko na yo ya mobali na kosangisa nzoto na mwasi na ye.
17 'The nakedness of a woman and her daughter thou dost not uncover; her son's daughter, and her daughter's daughter thou dost not take to uncover her nakedness; they [are] her relations; it [is] wickedness.
Okosangisa nzoto te na mama mpe na mwana na ye ya mwasi to na mwana mwasi ya mwana na ye ya mobali mpe ya mwasi; pamba te bazali makila moko mpe ekozala likambo ya nkele penza na miso ya Nzambe.
18 'And a woman unto another thou dost not take, to be an adversary, to uncover her nakedness beside her, in her life.
Okosangisa nzoto te na ndeko mwasi ya mwasi na yo, wana mwasi na yo azali nanu na bomoi, noki te ekoyeisa bombanda.
19 'And unto a woman in the separation of her uncleanness thou dost not draw near to uncover her nakedness.
Okosangisa nzoto te na mwasi oyo azali komona makila na ye ya sanza, pamba te azali mbindo.
20 'And unto the wife of thy fellow thou dost not give thy seed of copulation, for uncleanness with her.
Okosangisa nzoto te na mwasi ya moninga na yo, noki te okokoma mbindo elongo na ye.
21 'And of thy seed thou dost not give to pass over to the Molech; nor dost thou pollute the name of thy God; I [am] Jehovah.
Okopesa moko kati na bana na yo te lokola mbeka epai ya nzambe Moloki, pamba te osengeli te kobebisa lokumu ya Kombo ya Nzambe na yo. Ngai nazali Yawe.
22 'And with a male thou dost not lie as one lieth with a woman; abomination it [is].
Okosangisa nzoto te na mwana mobali ndenge basangisaka nzoto na mwana mwasi; ezali likambo ya nkele.
23 'And with any beast thou dost not give thy copulation, for uncleanness with it; and a woman doth not stand before a beast to lie down with it; confusion it [is].
Okosangisa nzoto te na nyama, noki te okokoma mbindo elongo na yango. Ndenge moko mpe mwasi akosangisa nzoto te na nyama: ezali kotiola Nzambe.
24 'Ye are not defiled with all these, for with all these have the nations been defiled which I am sending away from before you;
Bomikomisa mbindo te na moko ya makambo oyo, pamba te ezali na nzela na yango nde bato ya bikolo oyo nazali kobengana liboso na bino bamikomisaki mbindo.
25 and the land is defiled, and I charge its iniquity upon it, and the land vomiteth out its inhabitants:
Lokola mboka yango moko mpe ekomaki mbindo, napesaki yango mpe etumbu mpo na lisumu na yango; bongo esanzaki bavandi na yango.
26 and ye — ye have kept My statutes and My judgments, and do not [any] of all these abominations, the native and the sojourner who is sojourning in your midst,
Kasi, ezala mwana mboka to mopaya oyo bazali kati na bino, bosengeli kotosa malako mpe bikateli na Ngai; mpe bosengeli koboya kosala makambo nyonso oyo ya nkele na miso ya Nzambe.
27 (for all these abominations have the men of the land done who [are] before you, and the land is defiled),
Pamba te bato oyo bazalaki kovanda na mboka oyo liboso na bino babandaki kosala makambo oyo nyonso, bongo mboka ekomaki mbindo.
28 and the land doth not vomit you out in your defiling it, as it hath vomited out the nation which [is] before you;
Bino bokeba ete bokomisa mboka mbindo te, mpo ete yango esanza bino te ndenge esanzaki bato ya bikolo oyo bazalaki liboso na bino.
29 for any one who doth [any] of all these abominations — even the persons who are doing [so], have been cut off from the midst of their people;
Moto nyonso oyo akosala moko ya makambo oyo ya nkele na miso ya Nzambe, esengeli balongola ye kati na bato na ye.
30 and ye have kept My charge, so as not to do [any] of the abominable statutes which have been done before you, and ye do not defile yourselves with them; I [am] Jehovah your God.'
Boye, bobatela malako na Ngai mpe bolanda ata likambo moko te kati na makambo mabe oyo ezalaki kosalema liboso ete bino boya, mpo ete bomikomisa mbindo te na nzela na yango. Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino. › »
