Deteronomi 13

1 Soki mosakoli moko to moto moko oyo amonaka makambo abimi kati na bino mpe asakoleli bino bilembo minene mpe bikamwa,

If there arise in the midst of thee a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and he giveth thee a sign or a token,

2 mpe soki bilembo minene mpe bikamwa oyo asakolaki ekokisami mpe alobi na bino: « Tika ete tosalela mpe togumbamela banzambe mosusu, » nzokande bino boyebi banzambe yango te,

And the sign or the token come to pass, whereof he spoke unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou dost not know, and let us serve them:

3 bosengeli te koyoka maloba ya mosakoli wana to ya moto wana oyo amonaka makambo. Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akomeka bino mpo na kotala soki bolingi Ye na motema na bino mobimba mpe na molimo na bino mobimba.

Then shalt thou not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or unto that dreamer of dreams; for the Lord your God proveth you, to know whether ye indeed love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

4 Bosengeli kosambela mpe kokumisa kaka Yawe, Nzambe na bino; bobatela mitindo na Ye, botosa Ye mpe bokangama na Ye.

After the Lord your God shall ye walk, and him shall ye fear, and his commandments shall ye keep, and his voice shall ye obey, and him shall ye serve, and unto him shall ye cleave.

5 Mosakoli to moto wana oyo amonaka makambo, esengeli baboma ye, pamba te azali koteya mpo ete botombokela Yawe, Nzambe na bino, oyo abimisaki bino na Ejipito mpe asikolaki bino na mokili ya bowumbu. Moto wana azalaki nde na posa ya kopengwisa bino na nzela oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, atindaki bino kolanda. Boye, bosengeli kolongola mabe kati na bino.

And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken revolt against the Lord your God, who hath brought you out of the land of Egypt, and who hath redeemed you out of the house of bond-men, to mislead thee front the way which the Lord thy God commanded thee to walk therein; and thou shalt put the evil away from the midst of thee.

6 Soki ndeko na yo moko ya mobali to ya mwasi, mwana na yo ya mobali to ya mwasi, mwasi oyo yo olingaka to moninga na yo ya motema alingi kokosa yo na nkuku na koloba: « Tokende kogumbamela banzambe mosusu, » banzambe oyo bino mpe bakoko na bino botikalaki koyeba te,

If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, who is [dear to thee] as thy own soul, should entice thee, in secret, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou dost not know, either thou, or thy fathers;

7 banzambe ya bato oyo bazingeli bino, oyo bazali pembeni to mosika, wuta na suka moko ya mokili kino na suka mosusu),

Some of the gods of the nations which are round about you, that are nigh unto thee, or that are far off from thee, from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth:

8 koyoka ye te mpe kondima ye te. Koyokela ye mawa te, kobikisa ye te mpe kobomba ye te.

Then shalt thou not consent unto him, nor shalt thou hearken unto him; nor shall thy eye look with pity on him, nor shalt thou spare, nor shalt thou conceal it for him;

9 Ya solo, osengeli koboma ye na mabanga. Loboko na yo ekozala loboko ya liboso mpo na kobamba ye mabanga mpe sima maboko ya bato nyonso.

But thou shalt surely kill him; thy hand shall be the first upon him to put him to death, and the hand of all the people afterward.

10 Boboma ye na mabanga, pamba te alingaki kopengwisa bino mosika na Yawe, Nzambe na bino, oyo abimisaki bino na Ejipito, mokili ya bowumbu.

And thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because he sought to mislead thee from the Lord thy God, who hath brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bond-men.

11 Boye, Isalaele nyonso ekoyoka mpe ekobanga, bongo moto moko te kati na bino akosala lisusu makambo mabe ya lolenge oyo.

And all Israel shall hear it, and they shall be afraid, and they shall not do any more such a wicked deed as this is in the midst of thee.

12 Soki oyoki bato koloba na tina na moko kati na bingumba oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, apesi yo mpo na kovanda

If thou shouldst hear concerning one of thy cities, which the Lord thy God hath given thee to dwell there, saying,

13 ete bato mabe bamonani kati na yango, batindiki bato ya engumba na bango mpe balobi na bango: « Tika ete tokende kogumbamela banzambe mosusu, » banzambe oyo oyebaki te,

There have gone forth men, children of worthlessness, from the midst of thee, and have misled the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which ye have not known:

14 wana osengeli koluka koyeba, kotuna mpe kotala malamu-malamu. Soki ezali ya solo mpe emonani ete likambo yango ya mbindo esalemaki penza kati na yo,

Then shalt thou inquire, and make search, and ask diligently; and, behold, if it be true, the thing is certain, such abomination hath been wrought in the midst of thee:

15 osengeli solo koboma na mopanga bavandi nyonso ya engumba yango. Osengeli kobebisa yango nyonso: bato na yango mpe bibwele na yango.

Then shalt thou smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, devoting it utterly, and all that is therein, and the cattle thereof, to the edge of the sword.

16 Okosangisa biloko nyonso ya engumba yango oyo bobotoli na esika oyo bato nyonso bakutanaka mpe okotumba engumba nyonso mpe biloko na yango nyonso oyo bobotolaki lokola mbeka ya kotumba mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na bino. Ekotikala mopiku ya mabanga mpo na libela, ekoki kotongama lisusu te.

And all its spoil shalt thou gather into the midst of the market-place thereof, and thou shalt burn with fire the city, and all its spoil entirely, unto the Lord thy God; and it shall be a ruinous heap for ever: it shall not be built again.

17 Eloko moko te kati na biloko oyo epesama lokola ekila ekoki komonana na maboko na yo, mpo ete Yawe Nzambe apelisela yo lisusu te kanda na Ye ya makasi, kasi atalisa yo ngolu na Ye, ayokela yo mawa mpe akomisa yo ebele ndenge alakaki yango epai ya bakoko na yo na nzela ya ndayi,

And there shall not cleave to thy hand aught of the devoted things; in order that the Lord may turn from the fierceness of his anger, and grant thee mercy, and have mercy upon thee, and multiply thee, as he hath sworn unto thy fathers;

18 soki otosi Yawe, Nzambe na yo, obateli mibeko na Ye nyonso oyo nazali kopesa yo lelo mpe otamboli na bosembo na miso Ye.

When thou wilt hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep all his commandments which I command thee this day, to do what is right in the eyes of the Lord thy God.
