< 1 Masolo ya Kala 5 >
1 Ribeni azalaki mwana mobali ya liboso ya Isalaele. Kasi lokola asangisaki nzoto na mwasi moko kati na basi ya tata na ye, makoki ya bomwana na ye ya liboso epesamaki epai ya bana mibali ya Jozefi, mwana mobali ya Isalaele. Yango wana bazalaki kotanga ye lisusu te lokola mwana ya liboso. Nzokande, Jozefi akomamaki te na buku ya mabota lokola mwana ya liboso.
As to sons of Reuben, first-born of Israel — for he [is] the first-born, and on account of his profaning the couch of his father hath his birthright been given to the sons of Joseph son of Israel, and [he is] not to be reckoned by genealogy for the birthright,
2 Yuda alekaki bandeko na ye nyonso ya mibali na makasi, mpe moto oyo akomaki mokonzi abimaki na nzela na ye. Kasi atako bongo, makoki ya bomwana ya liboso epesamaki kaka epai ya Jozefi.

And these [are] heads of the house of their fathers, even Epher, and Ishi, and Eliel, and Azriel, and Jeremiah, and Hodaviah, and Jahdiel, men mighty in valour, men of name, heads to the house of their fathers.

And they trespass against the God of their fathers, and go a-whoring after the gods of the peoples of the land whom God destroyed from their presence;
