Deteronomi 5
1 Moyize abengisaki Isalaele mobimba mpe alobaki: « Oh Isalaele, yoka malamu bikateli mpe mibeko oyo nakoyebisa yo lelo. Yekola yango, batela yango mpe salela yango.
And Moses called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and the ordinances which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and that ye may observe to do them.
2 Yawe, Nzambe na biso, asalaki boyokani elongo na biso elongo na ngomba Orebi.
The Lord our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
3 Yawe asalaki te boyokani oyo na bakoko na biso kasi asalaki yango nde na biso, biso nyonso oyo tozali na bomoi awa na mokolo ya lelo.
Not with our fathers did the Lord make this covenant, but with us, we who are here all of us alive this day.
4 Yawe alobaki na bino kati na moto likolo ya ngomba ndenge moto alobanaka na moto miso na miso.
Face to face did the Lord speak with you on the mount, out of the midst of the fire,
5 Na tango wana, natelemaki kati ya Yawe mpe bino mpo na koyebisa bino maloba na Yawe, pamba te bozalaki kobanga moto mpe bomataki te likolo ya ngomba. Tala maloba oyo alobaki:
(I was standing between the Lord and between you at that time, to announce to you the word of the Lord; for ye were afraid by reason of the fire, and ye went not up into the mount; ) saying,
6 ‹ Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na yo, oyo abimisaki yo wuta na mokili ya Ejipito epai wapi ozalaki na bowumbu.
I am the Lord thy God, who have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of slavery.
7 Okozalaka na banzambe mosusu te, bobele Ngai.
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
8 Okomisalelaka te nzambe ya ekeko to bililingi ya biloko oyo ezali na likolo, na se to na mayi oyo ezali na se ya mabele.
Thou shalt not make unto thyself any graven image, any likeness of any thing that is in the heavens above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
9 Okogumbamelaka yango te mpe okosalelaka yango te, pamba te Ngai Yawe, Nzambe na yo, nazali Nzambe ya zuwa; napesaka bana etumbu mpo na masumu ya batata kino na molongo ya misato mpe ya minei ya bato oyo bayinaka Ngai.
Thou shalt not bow thyself down unto them, nor serve them; for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me,
10 Kasi natalisaka bolingo na Ngai kino na molongo ya nkoto epai ya bato oyo balingaka Ngai mpe babatelaka mibeko na Ngai.
And showing kindness unto the thousandth generation of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
11 Okotangaka te na pamba Kombo ya Yawe, Nzambe na yo, pamba te Yawe akopesa etumbu na moto nyonso oyo akotanga Kombo na Ye na pamba.
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
12 Kanisaka mokolo ya Saba mpe bulisaka yango, ndenge Yawe, Nzambe na yo, atindaki yo yango.
Keep the sabbath-day to sanctify it, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee.
13 Okosalaka misala na yo nyonso mikolo motoba.
Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work;
14 Kasi mokolo ya sambo ezali mokolo ya Saba ya Yawe, Nzambe na yo. Na mokolo wana, okosalaka mosala ata moko te, ezala yo, mwana na yo ya mobali, mwana na yo ya mwasi, mowumbu na yo ya mobali, mwasi mowumbu na yo, ngombe na yo, ane na yo, ebwele moko kati na bibwele na yo to mopaya oyo azali kati na bingumba na yo, mpo ete mosali na yo ya mobali mpe mwasi mosali na yo ya mwasi bakoka kopema ndenge yo ozali kopema.
But the seventh day is the sabbath in honor of the Lord thy God; on it thou shalt not do any work, neither thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy ox, nor thy ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: in order that thy man-servant and thy maid-servant may rest as well as thou.
15 Kanisa ete bozalaki bawumbu na Ejipito, mpe Yawe, Nzambe na bino, abimisaki bino kuna na loboko na Ye ya nguya mpe na loboko na Ye ya kosembolama. Yango wana, Yawe, Nzambe na yo, apesi yo mitindo ete otosa mokolo ya Saba.
And thou shalt remember that thou hast been a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord thy God brought thee out from there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm; therefore hath the Lord thy God commanded thee to observe the sabbath-day.
16 Okopesaka tata na yo mpe mama na yo lokumu, ndenge Yawe, Nzambe na yo, atindaki yo mpo ete ozala na bomoi ya molayi, mpe ozala moto ya esengo kati na mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, azali kopesa yo.
Honor thy father and thy mother, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee: in order that thy days may be prolonged, and in order that it may go well with thee, in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
17 Okobomaka te.
Thou shalt not kill.
18 Okosalaka ekobo te.
Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
19 Okoyibaka te.
Neither shalt thou steal.
20 Okolobaka te matatoli ya lokuta mpo na kokosela moninga na yo makambo.
Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbor.
21 Okolulaka te mwasi ya moninga na yo; okolulaka te ndako ya moninga na yo, elanga na ye, mowumbu na ye ya mobali to mwasi mowumbu na ye, ngombe na ye, ane na ye to eloko nyonso oyo ezali ya moninga na yo. › »
Neither shalt thou covet thy neighbor's wife. Neither shalt thou desire thy neighbor's house, nor his field, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbor's.
22 Oyo nde mibeko oyo Yawe alobaki na mongongo makasi kati na moto epai ya lisanga mobimba oyo ezalaki likolo ya ngomba kati na mapata mpe molili makasi; mpe abakisaki ata likambo moko te. Bongo akomaki yango na bitando mibale ya mabanga mpe apesaki ngai yango.
These words did the Lord speak unto all your assembly on the mount out of the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the thick darkness, with a great voice, but he did so no more; and he wrote them on two tables of stone, and he gave them unto me.
23 Tango boyokaki mongongo kobima kati na molili, wana ngomba ezalaki kopela moto, bakambi nyonso ya mabota na bino mpe bampaka na bino bayaki epai na ngai.
And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, while the mount was burning with fire, that ye came near unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;
24 Balobaki: « Yawe, Nzambe na biso, alakisi biso nkembo na Ye mpe lokumu na Ye; mpe toyoki mongongo na Ye wuta na moto. Lelo, tomoni ete moto akoki kozala na bomoi ata soki Nzambe asololi na ye.
And ye said, Behold, the Lord our God hath caused us to see his glory and his greatness, and his voice have we heard out of the midst of the fire: this day have we seen that God can speak with man, who nevertheless may live.
25 Kasi sik’oyo mpo na nini tokufa kaka boye? Moto ya monene oyo ekoki kozikisa biso mpe koboma biso soki tokobi koyoka mongongo na Yawe, Nzambe na biso, kolobela biso.
But now why should we die? for this great fire may consume us; if we continue to hear the voice of the Lord our God any more, then shall we die.
26 Pamba te nani kati na mokili akoki koyoka mongongo ya Nzambe na bomoi koloba kati na moto ndenge biso toyokaki bongo atikala na bomoi?
For where is there any flesh, that hath heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, like us, and hath remained alive?
27 Pusana pembeni mpe yoka makambo nyonso oyo Yawe, Nzambe na biso, akoloba; bongo na sima, okoyebisa biso makambo nyonso oyo Yawe, Nzambe na biso, akoloba na yo; mpe biso tokoyoka mpe tokotosa yango. »
Do thou approach, and hear all that the Lord our God may say; and thou shalt speak unto us all that the Lord our God may speak unto thee; and we will hear and do it.
28 Yawe ayokaki bino tango boyebisaki ngai mpe alobaki na ngai: « Nayoki makambo oyo bato oyo balobi na yo. Nyonso oyo balobi ezali malamu.
And the Lord heard the voice of your words, while ye were speaking unto me; and the Lord said unto me, I have heard the voice of the words of this people, which they have spoken unto thee: they have done well in all that they have spoken.
29 Oh, soki mitema na bango ezalaki penza ya kobongama mpo na kobanga Ngai mpe kobatela mibeko na Ngai tango nyonso, mpo ete bakoka kozala tango nyonso malamu elongo na bana na bango!
Who would grant that this their heart might remain in them, to fear me, and to keep all my commandments at all times; in order that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!
30 Kende, yebisa bango: ‹ Bozonga na bandako na bino. ›
Go, say to them, Return you unto your tents.
31 Kasi yo, vanda awa elongo na Ngai mpo ete napesa yo mibeko nyonso, bikateli nyonso, mpe mitindo nyonso oyo okoteya bango mpo ete basalela yango kati na mokili oyo nakopesa bango lokola libula. »
But as for thee, remain thou here by me, and I will speak unto thee all the commandments, and the statutes, and the ordinances, which thou shalt teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess it.
32 Yango wana, bosala keba na oyo nyonso Yawe, Nzambe na bino, atindi bino; bobaluka te ezala na ngambo moko to na ngambo mosusu.
Observe ye then to do as the Lord your God hath commanded you: ye shall not turn aside to the right or to the left.
33 Botambola na banzela nyonso oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, atindaki bino mpo ete bozala na bomoi, mpo ete bozala bato ya esengo, mpe mpo ete bobakisa mikolo ya bomoi na bino kati na mokili oyo bokokamata.
altogether in the way, which the Lord your God hath commanded you, shall ye walk; in order that ye may live, and that it may be well with you, and that ye may remain many days in the land which ye will possess.
