Deteronomi 30
1 Maloba oyo nawuti koloba, mapamboli mpe bilakeli mabe oyo napesi yo mpo ete opona, ekokokisama. Soki obateli yango malamu na motema na yo kati na bikolo nyonso epai wapi Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akobengana yo;
And it shall come to pass, when all these things are come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thee, and thou shalt take them to heart among all the nations whither Jehovah thy God hath driven thee,
2 soki ozongi epai na Yawe, Nzambe na yo; soki yo mpe bana na yo botosi Ye, na mitema mpe na milimo na bino mobimba, na makambo nyonso oyo natindi yo lelo,
and shalt return to Jehovah thy God, and shalt hearken to his voice according to all that I command thee this day, thou and thy sons, with all thy heart and with all thy soul;
3 Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akoyokela yo mawa: akozongisa bato na yo, oyo bakendeki na bowumbu mpe akosangisa bino lisusu wuta na bikolo nyonso epai wapi apanzaki bino.
that then Jehovah thy God will turn thy captivity, and have compassion upon thee, and will gather thee again from all the peoples whither Jehovah thy God hath scattered thee.
4 Atako bokendeki na bamboka ya mosika kati na mokili, Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akoluka kosangisa bino longwa kuna mpe akozongisa bino.
Though there were of you driven out unto the end of the heavens, from thence will Jehovah thy God gather thee, and from thence will he fetch thee;
5 Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akomema bino na mokili ya bakoko na bino, mpe bokozwa yango; akosalela bino bolamu mpe akokomisa bino ebele koleka bakoko na bino.
and Jehovah thy God will bring thee into the land that thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt possess it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.
6 Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akobulisa mitema na bino mpe mitema ya bakitani na bino mpo ete bolinga Ye na mitema mpe na milimo na bino mobimba, mpe mpo ete bozala na bomoi.
And Jehovah thy God will circumcise thy heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love Jehovah thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.
7 Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akotia bilakeli nyonso ya mabe likolo ya banguna na bino, oyo bayinaka bino mpe banyokolaka bino.
And Jehovah thy God will put all these curses on thine enemies, and on them that hate thee, who have persecuted thee.
8 Bokotosa lisusu Yawe mpe bokosalela mitindo na Ye nyonso oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo.
But thou shalt return and hearken to the voice of Jehovah, and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.
9 Bongo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akosala ete bomona bolamu kati na misala nyonso ya maboko na bino, mpe akopesa bino bana ebele, bibwele ebele mpe bambuma ebele kati na mokili na bino. Yawe akosepela na bino lisusu mpe akosalela bino bolamu, ndenge kaka asepelaki na bakoko na bino,
And Jehovah thy God will make thee abound in every work of thy hand, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, for good; for Jehovah will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers;
10 soki botosi Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bobateli mitindo mpe bikateli na Ye, oyo ekomama kati na buku oyo ya Mobeko, mpe soki bozongi epai na Yawe, Nzambe na bino, na mitema mpe na milimo na bino mobimba.
if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law; if thou turn to Jehovah thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
11 Makambo oyo nazali kotinda yo lelo, ezali penza pasi te mpe elekeli yo te na makasi.
For this commandment which I command thee this day is not too wonderful for thee, neither is it far off.
12 Ezali te kati na Likolo mpo ete okoka kotuna: « Nani akomata kuna na Likolo mpo na kozwela ngai yango mpe kosakolela ngai yango mpo ete nakoka kotosa yango? »
It is not in the heavens, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to the heavens, and bring it to us, that we should hear it and do it?
13 Ezali te na ngambo mosusu ya ebale monene mpo ete okoka kotuna: « Nani akokatisa ebale monene mpo na kokamata yango mpe kosakolela ngai yango, mpo ete nakoka kotosa yango? »
And it is not beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it to us, that we should hear it and do it?
14 Te, liloba yango ezali pene na yo, ezali kati na monoko na yo mpe kati na motema na yo, mpo ete okoka kotosa yango.
For the word is very near to thee, in thy mouth and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.
15 Tala, nasili kotia lelo, liboso na yo, bomoi mpe bolamu, kufa mpe mabe.
See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil,
16 Tala likambo oyo Ngai natindi yo lelo: linga Yawe, Nzambe na yo, tambola na banzela na Ye mpe batela mitindo na Ye, bikateli na Ye mpe mibeko na Ye. Bongo okozala na bomoi, mpe bokokoma ebele; mpe Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopambola yo kati na mokili oyo bozali kokota mpo na kozwa.
in that I command thee this day to love Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, that thou mayest live and multiply, and that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
17 Kasi soki motema na yo epengwi mpe otosi te, soki okosami na kogumbamela banzambe mosusu mpe na kosambela yango,
But if thy heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and thou shalt bow down to other gods and serve them;
18 nalobi na yo, na mokolo ya lelo, ete okobebisama solo, okowumela lisusu te kati na mokili oyo ezali na ngambo mosusu ya Yordani, epai wapi bokokota mpo na kozwa.
I denounce unto you this day that ye shall surely perish; ye shall not prolong your days upon the land whereunto thou passest over the Jordan to possess it.
19 Na mokolo ya lelo, nazwi likolo mpe se lokola batatoli mpo na yo: nasili kotia liboso na yo bomoi mpe kufa, mapamboli mpe bilakeli mabe. Sik’oyo, pona bomoi mpo ete yo mpe bana na yo bozala na bomoi.
I call heaven and earth to witness this day against you: life and death have I set before you, blessing and cursing: choose then life, that thou mayest live, thou and thy seed,
20 Mpe pona kolinga Yawe, Nzambe na yo, koyoka mongongo na Ye mpe kokangama na Ye, pamba te azali bomoi na yo mpe akopesa yo mibu ebele kati na mokili oyo Yawe alakaki kopesa, na nzela ya ndayi, epai ya bakoko na yo —Abrayami, Izaki mpe Jakobi.
in loving Jehovah thy God, in hearkening to his voice, and in cleaving to him — for this is thy life and the length of thy days — that thou mayest dwell in the land which Jehovah swore unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
