< Deteronomi 29 >
1 Tala maloba ya boyokani oyo Yawe atindaki Moyize kosala elongo na bana ya Isalaele na etando ya Moabi, na likolo ya boyokani oyo asalaki na bango na ngomba Orebi.
These are the words of the covenant which the Lord instructed Moses to form with the sons of Israel in the land of Moab, beside that covenant which he struck with them at Horeb.
2 Moyize abengisaki bana nyonso ya Isalaele mpe alobaki na bango: « Miso na bino emonaki makambo nyonso oyo Yawe asalaki na Ejipito epai ya Faraon, epai ya basali na ye nyonso mpe kati na mokili na ye mobimba.
And Moses called all of Israel, and he said to them: “You have seen all the things that the Lord has done in your sight in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to his entire land:
3 Na miso na bino moko, bomonaki komekama monene, bilembo minene mpe bikamwa.
the great trials, which your eyes have seen, those immense signs and wonders.
4 Kasi kino na mokolo ya lelo, Yawe apesaki bino te mayele mpo na kososola to miso mpo na komona to matoyi mpo na koyoka.
But the Lord has not given you an understanding heart, and seeing eyes, and ears that are able to hear, even to this present day.
5 Na mibu tuku minei oyo Ngai Yawe nakambaki bino na esobe, bilamba na bino enzulukaki te mpe basandale na makolo na bino ekufaki te.
He led you for forty years through the desert. Your garments have not been worn out, nor have the shoes on your feet been consumed by age.
6 Boliaki mapa te mpe bomelaki vino te to masanga mosusu oyo elangwisaka. Nasalaki yango mpo boyeba ete Ngai nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
You did not eat bread, nor did you drink wine or liquor, so that you would know that I am the Lord your God.
7 Tango bokomaki na esika oyo, Sikoni, mokonzi ya Eshiboni, mpe Ogi, mokonzi ya Bashani, bayaki kobundisa biso, kasi tolongaki bango.
And you arrived at this place. And Sihon, the king of Heshbon, and Og, the king of Bashan, went out to meet us in battle. And we struck them down.
8 Tozwaki mokili na bango mpe topesaki yango lokola libula epai ya bato ya libota ya Ribeni, ya Gadi mpe epai ya ndambo ya libota ya Manase.
And we took their land and delivered it as a possession to Ruben and to Gad, and to half of the tribe of Manasseh.
9 Bosalela malamu maloba ya boyokani oyo mpo ete bomona bolamu na makambo nyonso oyo bokosala.
Therefore, keep the words of this covenant, and fulfill them, so that you may understand all that you are doing.
10 Bino nyonso, bokotelema lelo na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino: bakambi na bino, bakonzi na bino ya masanga, bampaka na bino, bakonzi na bino ya basoda mpe bato mosusu kati na Isalaele
Today, you all stand in the sight of the Lord your God: your leaders, and tribes, and those greater by birth, and teachers, all the people of Israel,
11 elongo na bana na bino mpe basi na bino mpe bapaya oyo bazali kati na milako na bino mpo na kobukela bino bakoni mpe kotokelaka bino mayi.
your children and wives, and the new arrival who dwells with you in the camp, aside from those who cut wood, and those who bring water,
12 Botelemi awa mpo na kosala boyokani elongo na Yawe, Nzambe na bino; boyokani oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, azali kosala elongo na bino, na mokolo ya lelo, na kolapa ndayi esangana na bilakeli mabe,
so that you may cross into the covenant of the Lord your God, and into the oath which the Lord your God strikes with you today.
13 mpo na koyebisa bino, na mokolo ya lelo, ete bozali bato na Ye, mpe Ye azali Nzambe na bino ndenge alakaki yango, na nzela ya ndayi, epai na bino mpe bakoko na bino —Abrayami, Izaki mpe Jakobi.
So shall he raise you up as a people to himself, and so shall he be your God, just as he has spoken to you, and just as he swore to your fathers: Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
14 Yawe azali kosala boyokani oyo, na nzela ya ndayi esangana na bilakeli mabe, elongo na bino kaka te,
And I am not forming this covenant and confirm these oaths with you alone,
15 kasi mpe elongo na ba-oyo bazali awa kati na biso, na mokolo ya lelo, liboso ya Yawe, Nzambe na biso, mpe elongo na ba-oyo bazali awa te elongo na biso.
but with all those who are present as well as those who are absent.
16 Bino moko boyebi ndenge nini tozalaki na Ejipito mpe ndenge nini tokatisaki bamboka oyo tolekaki.
For you know how we lived in the land of Egypt, and how we passed through the midst of nations. And when passing through them,
17 Bomonaki kati na bango biloko na bango ya mbindo, banzambe ya bikeko basala na libaya, na libanga, na palata mpe na wolo.
you saw their abominations and filth, that is, their idols of wood and of stone, of silver and of gold, which they worshipped,
18 Bosala keba ete, na mokolo ya lelo, mobali moko te, mwasi moko te, etuka moko te to libota moko te epengwa na nzela ya Yawe, Nzambe na biso, mpo na kokende kogumbamela banzambe wana ya bikeko. Bosala keba ete, kati na bino, ezala na mosisa moko te oyo ekobota ngenge ya bololo ya ndenge wana.
so that there would not be among you man or woman, family or tribe, whose heart has been turned away this day from the Lord our God, so as to go and serve the gods of those nations. For then there would be among you a root springing forth gall and bitterness.
19 Sima na koyoka maloba oyo ya bilakeli, tika ete moto moko te kati na bino amipambola na koloba: ‹ Nakolonga na makambo na ngai nyonso atako natamboli kolanda baposa ya motema na ngai moko. › Pamba te, moto oyo akosala mabe oyo akomema moto oyo ayebi likambo te na libunga na ye.
And if he were to hear the words of this oath, he would bless himself in his own heart saying: ‘There will be peace for me, and I will walk in the depravity of my heart.’ And so, the one who is inebriated would consume the one who is thirsty.
20 Yawe akolimbisa ye te; kanda makasi na Ye mpe zuwa na Ye ekokweyela moto wana. Bilakeli nyonso ya mabe oyo ekomama kati na buku oyo ekokweyela ye mpe Yawe akolongola kombo na ye kati na mokili.
But the Lord would not ignore him. Instead, at that time, his fury and zealousness would be very greatly enflamed against that man, and all the curses which have been written in this volume would settle upon him. And the Lord would abolish his name from under heaven,
21 Yawe akotia ye pembeni kati na bikolo nyonso ya Isalaele, akokaba ye na pasi ndenge ezali bilakeli mabe nyonso ya boyokani oyo ekomama kati na buku ya Mobeko.
and consume him unto perdition out of all the tribes of Israel, according to the curses which are contained in the book of this law and in the covenant.
22 Milongo ya bana na bino oyo ekoya sima na bino mpe bapaya oyo bakowuta na mikili ya mosika bakomona bitumbu oyo Yawe akokweyisela mokili wana.
And the subsequent generation would speak out, along with the sons who will be born afterward. And the sojourners, who will arrive from far away, will see the plagues of that land and the infirmities with which the Lord will have afflicted it,
23 Mokili mobimba ekopela na moto ya sofolo mpe ekotonda na mungwa. Bakolona ata eloko moko te, eloko moko te ekobima mpe matiti ekobota te. Mokili yango ekobebisama ndenge Sodome mpe Gomore, Adima mpe Tseboyimi, ebebisamaki: bingumba oyo Yawe abebisaki na kanda na Ye ya makasi.
having burned it with sulphur and molten salt, so that it can no longer be sown. And certainly no greenery would spring up, as in the example of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the Lord overturned with his wrath and fury.
24 Bikolo nyonso ekotuna: ‹ Mpo na nini Yawe asali likambo ya boye na mokili oyo? Mpo na nini kanda makasi boye? ›
And so, all the nations would say: ‘Why has the Lord acted this way toward this land? What is this immense wrath of his fury?’
25 Mpe eyano ekozala: ‹ Esalemaki bongo, pamba te bato oyo babukaki boyokani oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya bakoko na bango, asalaki elongo na bango tango abimisaki bango na Ejipito.
And they will respond: ‘Because they abandoned the covenant of the Lord, which he formed with their fathers, when he led them away from the land of Egypt.
26 Bakendeki kosambela banzambe mosusu mpe bagumbamelaki bango, banzambe oyo bayebaki te mpe oyo Ye apekisaki bango.
And they have served foreign gods, and adored them, though they did not know them, and though they had not been allotted to them.
27 Yango wana, kanda ya Yawe epeli na mokili wana mpe amemi bilakeli mabe nyonso oyo ekomami na buku oyo, kati na mokili wana.
For this reason, the fury of the Lord was enraged against this land, so as to lead over it all the curses which have been written in this volume.
28 Yawe apikolaki bango na mokili na bango na kanda na Ye ya makasi mpe na kotomboka na Ye ya makasi. Abwakaki bango na mokili mosusu ndenge ezali komonana lelo. ›
And he has cast them out of their own land, with anger and fury, and with a very great indignation, and he has thrown them into a strange land, just as has been proven this day.’
29 Makambo oyo ebombama ezali mpo na Yawe, Nzambe na biso; mpe makambo oyo emonisami ezali mpo na biso mpe bakitani na biso, mpo na tango nyonso, mpo ete tokoka kosalela maloba nyonso ya mibeko oyo. »
These hidden things of the Lord our God have been revealed to us and to our sons in perpetuity, so that we may accomplish all the words of this law.”
