Deteronomi 27
1 Moyize mpe bampaka ya Isalaele bapesaki mitindo oyo epai ya bato: « Bobatela mitindo nyonso oyo nalingi kopesa bino lelo.
And Moses with the elders of Israel commanded the people, saying, Keep the whole commandment which I command you this day.
2 Tango bokokatisa Yordani mpo na kokota na mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akopesa bino, bokotelemisa ndambo ya mabanga minene mpe bokopakola yango pembe.
And it shall be on the day when ye pass over the Jordan unto the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee, that thou shalt set up for thyself great stones, and cover them with plaster;
3 Bokokoma na likolo na yango, maloba nyonso ya mobeko tango bokosilisa kokatisa Yordani mpo na kokota na mokili oyo Nzambe na bino akopesa bino, mokili oyo ezali kobimisa miliki mpe mafuta ya nzoyi, ndenge kaka Yawe, Nzambe ya bakoko na bino, alakaki bino.
And thou shalt write upon them all the words of this law, so soon as thou art passed over; in order that thou mayest go in unto the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee, a land flowing with milk and honey; as the Lord, the God of thy fathers, hath spoken unto thee.
4 Mpe tango bokosilisa kokatisa Yordani, bokotelemisa mabanga yango na ngomba Ebali ndenge natindi bino yango lelo, mpe bokopakola yango pembe.
And it shall be so soon as ye are gone over the Jordan, that ye shall set up these stones, which I command you this day, on mount 'Ebal; and thou shalt cover them with plaster.
5 Kuna, bokotonga etumbelo ya mabanga mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na bino. Bokosalela ata esalelo moko te ya ebende.
And thou shalt build there an altar unto the Lord thy God, an altar of stones: thou shalt not lift up any iron tool upon them.
6 Bokotonga na mabanga balokota na bilanga etumbelo mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bokobonza na likolo na yango bambeka ya kotumba.
Of whole stones shalt thou build the altar of the Lord thy God; and thou shalt offer thereupon burnt-offerings unto the Lord thy God;
7 Na likolo ya etumbelo yango, bokobonza bambeka ya boyokani; bokolia yango kaka na esika wana mpe bokosepela na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
And thou shalt slay peace-offerings, and eat [them] there; and thou shalt rejoice before the Lord thy God.
8 Bokokoma na konguluta maloba nyonso ya mobeko oyo na likolo ya mabanga oyo botelemisi. »
And thou shalt write upon the statues all the words of this law, very plainly.
9 Sima na yango, Moyize mpe Banganga-Nzambe oyo bazali Balevi balobaki na lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele: « Oh Isalaele, bovanda kimia mpe boyoka! Bokomi lelo libota ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
And Moses with the priests, the Levites, spoke unto all Israel, saying, Be attentive, and hearken, O Israel! this day art thou become a people unto the Lord thy God.
10 Botosa Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bosalela mitindo mpe bikateli na Ye oyo nalingi kopesa bino lelo. »
Thou shalt therefore hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and do his commandments and his statutes, which I command thee this day.
11 Kaka na mokolo wana, Moyize apesaki mitindo oyo epai na bato:
And Moses commanded the people on the same day, saying,
12 « Tala mabota oyo ekotelema na ngomba Garizimi mpo na kopambola bato tango bokokatisa Yordani: libota ya Simeoni, ya Levi, ya Yuda, ya Isakari, ya Jozefi, mpe ya Benjame.
These shall stand upon mount Gerizzim to bless the people, when ye are come over the Jordan: Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Joseph, and Benjamin.
13 Mpe tala mabota oyo ekotelema na ngomba Ebali mpo na kolakela bato mabe: libota ya Ribeni, ya Gadi, ya Aseri, ya Zabuloni, ya Dani mpe ya Nefitali. »
And these shall stand for the sake of the curse upon mount 'Ebal: Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.
14 Balevi bakoloba epai ya bana nyonso ya Isalaele maloba oyo na mongongo makasi:
