Kobima 34
1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Bongisa bitando mibale ya mabanga lokola oyo ya liboso; nakokoma na bitando yango maloba oyo ezalaki na likolo ya bitando ya liboso oyo obukaki.
And Yahweh said unto Moses—Hew thee two tables of stone, like the first, —and I will write upon the tables the words which were upon the first tables which thou didst break in pieces;
2 Omilengela mpo na lobi na tongo. Na tongo-tongo, okomata na ngomba Sinai mpe okotelema liboso na Ngai, kuna na songe ya ngomba.
and be thou ready by the morning, —and thou shalt come up. in the morning, into Mount Sinai; then shalt thou station thyself for me there upon the top of the mount;
3 Moto moko te asengeli komata elongo na yo; na ngomba mobimba, moto moko te amonana; bameme, bantaba to bangombe esengeli mpe te kolia na ebandeli ya ngomba.
and, no man, may come up with thee, and let no man so much as be seen in all the mount, —and let not even the flocks or the herds, feed in front of that mountain.
4 Moyize abongisaki bitando mibale ya mabanga lokola oyo ya liboso. Bongo na tongo-tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki, amataki ngomba Sinai ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki ye; amemaki bitando mibale ya mabanga, na maboko na ye.
So he hewed two tables of stone like the first and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up into Mount Sinai, as Yahweh had commanded him, —and took in his hand two tables of stone.
5 Yawe akitaki kati na lipata, atelemaki wana pene na ye, mpe Moyize abelelaki Kombo ya Yawe.
And Yahweh descended in the cloud, and took his station with him there, —and proclaimed himself by the name Yahweh.
6 Yawe alekaki liboso ya Moyize, mpe Moyize atatolaki: — Yawe, Yawe, Nzambe na mawa mpe na ngolu, Nzambe oyo asilikaka noki te, atondi na bolingo mpe na boboto,
So Yahweh passed before him, and proclaimed, —Yahweh, Yahweh, A God of compassion and favour, —Slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness and faithfulness:
7 atalisaka bolingo na Ye kino na milongo nkoto, alimbisaka mabe, botomboki mpe masumu, kasi azangaka te kopesa etumbu na moto oyo asali mabe, Nzambe oyo apesaka bakitani etumbu mpo na mabe ya batata na bango kino na molongo ya misato mpe ya minei!
Keeping lovingkindness to a thousand generations, Forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, Though he leave not, utterly unpunished, Visiting the iniquity of fathers, Upon sons, And upon sons’ sons, Unto a third and unto a fourth generation.
8 Mbala moko, Moyize afukamaki mpe agumbamelaki Yawe;
Then Moses made haste, —and bent his head towards the earth and bowed himself down;
9 alobaki: — Eh Nkolo, soki penza nazwi ngolu na miso na Yo, nabondeli Yo: tambola kati na biso. Atako bato oyo bazali batomboki, kasi limbisa mabe mpe masumu na biso, mpe zwa biso lokola bato na Yo!
and said—If, I pray thee, I have found favour in thine eyes, O My Lord, I pray thee let My Lord go on in our midst, —although a stiff-necked people, it is, so wilt thou pardon our iniquity and our sin and take us as thine own.
10 Yawe azongisaki: — Nalingi kosala boyokani elongo na bino. Liboso ya bato na yo nyonso, nakosala makambo ya kokamwa oyo etikala nanu kosalema te na mokili mobimba to na ekolo moko. Boye bato nyonso oyo bazali zingazinga na yo bakomona misala ya somo oyo Ngai Yawe nakosala na nzela na yo.
And he said—Lo! I, am about to solemnise a covenant, -in presence of all thy people, will I do marvellous things, which have not been created in any part of the earth nor among any of the nations, —so shall all the people in whose midst thou, art see the work of Yahweh for a fearful thing, it is, which I, am doing with thee.
11 Botosa makambo oyo nazali kotinda bino lelo. Nakobengana liboso na bino: bato ya Amori, ya Kanana, ya Iti, ya Perizi, ya Evi mpe ya Yebusi.
Take thou heed what, I, am commanding thee this day, —behold me! driving out from before thee—the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
12 Bokeba! Bosala boyokani te elongo na bavandi ya mokili oyo bozali kokende, noki te bakokoma motambo kati na bino!
Take heed to thyself, Lest thou solemnise a covenant with the inhabitant of the land, whereupon, thou, art about to enter, —Lest he become a snare in thy midst;
13 Bokweyisa bitumbelo na bango, bopanza bikeko na bango mpe bobuka makonzi oyo bapika mpo na nzambe mwasi Ashera.
For their altars, shall ye smash, And their pillars, shall ye shiver, —And their sacred-stems, shall ye fell.
14 Bogumbamela nzambe mosusu te, pamba te Yawe andimaka bombanda te; Kombo na Ye ezali Nzambe ya zuwa.
For thou shalt not bow thyself down to another GOD, —For as for Yahweh, Jealous, is his name, A jealous GOD, he is:
15 Bokeba! Bosala boyokani te elongo na bavandi ya mokili yango; noki te tango bakosambela banzambe na bango mpe bakobonzela yango mbeka, babenga bino mpo ete bolia mbeka na bango elongo;
Lest thou solemnise a covenant with the inhabitant of the land, —And then as surely as they go unchastely after their gods and sacrifice to their gods, So surely will he invite thee, And thou wilt eat of his sacrifice;
16 mpe soki bozwi na libala bana na bango ya basi mpo na bana na bino ya mibali, wana bana na bango ya basi bakokoba kosambela banzambe na bango ya bikeko, bakotindika bana na bino ya mibali na kosambela banzambe na bango.
And thou wilt take of his daughters for thy sons, —And his daughters will go unchastely after their gods, And will cause thy sons to go unchastely after their gods.
17 Bokosala nzambe ya ekeko te.
Molten gods, shalt thou not make to thee.
18 Bokosala feti ya Mapa ezanga levire. Mikolo sambo, bokolia mapa ezanga levire ndenge natindaki yo. Bokosala yango na tango ekatama, na sanza ya Abibi, pamba te ezali na sanza yango nde bobimaki na Ejipito.
The festival of unleavened cakes, shalt thou keep, seven days, shalt thou eat unleavened cakes, which I commanded thee, at the set time, in the month Abib, —for in the month Abib, camest thou forth out of Egypt.
19 Mwana mobali nyonso ya liboso azali ya Ngai; ekozala mpe bongo mpo na mwana mobali nyonso ya liboso kati na bibwele na bino: ezala mwana ngombe, mwana ntaba to mwana meme.
Every one that is the first to be born, is mine, —and every one of thy cattle that is born a male, firstling of oxen or sheep.
20 Nzokande, mpo na mwana liboso ya ane, bokosikola yango na mwana meme. Soki bosikoli yango te, bokobuka yango kingo. Bokosikola bana na bino nyonso ya liboso ya mibali. Moto moko te akoya kotelema liboso na Ngai maboko pamba.
But the firstling of an ass, thou mayst redeem with a lamb, and if thou wilt not redeem it, then shalt thou break its neck. Every firstborn of thy sons, shalt thou redeem, and he must not see my face, with empty hand.
21 Bokosala mosala mikolo motoba, kasi na mokolo ya sambo, bosengeli kopema: ezala na tango ya kolona to na tango ya kobuka.
Six days, shalt thou labour, but on the seventh day, shalt thou rest, —in plowing time and in harvest, shalt thou rest.
22 Bokosala feti ya Baposo mpo na kosepela na tina na bambuma ya liboso ya ble oyo ekomeli, mpe feti ya kobuka bambuma na suka ya mobu.
And the festival of weeks, shalt thou make to thee, the firstfruits of the wheat harvest, —and the festival of ingathering, at the closing in of the year:
23 Mbala misato na mobu, mibali nyonso basengeli koya liboso ya Nkolo Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele.
three times in the year, shall every one of thy males see the face of the Lord Yahweh the God of Israel.
24 Mpo na bolamu na yo, nakobengana bikolo liboso na yo mpe nakoyeisa mokili na yo monene. Moto moko te akoluka kobotola mokili na yo tango okobanda komata mbala misato na mobu, mpo na kokutana na Yawe, Nzambe na yo.
For I will root out nations from before thee, and will enlarge thy borders, —and no man shall covet thy land, when thou goes up to see the face of Yahweh thy God, three times in the year.
25 Okobonzela Ngai te makila ya nyama elongo na mapa batia levire; okobomba te kino lobi na tongo mbeka oyo babonzi mpo na Pasika.
Thou shalt not slay, along with anything leavened, the blood of my sacrifice, —neither shall remain to the morning, the sacrifice of the festival of the passover.
26 Okomema na Ndako ya Yawe, Nzambe na yo, bambuma ya liboso ya mabele na yo. Okolamba te mwana ntaba oyo ezali nanu komela mabele ya mama na yango.
The beginning of the firstfruits of thy ground, shalt thou bring into the house of Yahweh, thy God, Thou shalt not boil a kid, in the milk of its dam.
27 Yawe alobaki lisusu na Moyize: — Koma maloba oyo, pamba te ezali na nzela na yango nde nasalaki boyokani elongo na yo mpe Isalaele.
And Yahweh said unto Moses, Write for thyself these words, for according to the tenor of these words, have I solemnized with thee, a covenant, and with Israel.
28 Moyize asalaki kuna elongo na Yawe mikolo tuku minei mpe babutu tuku minei; aliaki ata eloko moko te mpe amelaki mayi te. Bongo Moyize akomaki na bitando ya mabanga maloba ya Boyokani oyo babengi mibeko zomi.
So then he was there, with Yahweh, forty days and forty nights, bread, did he not eat and, water, did he not drink, and he wrote upon the tables, the words of the covenant, the ten words.
29 Nzokande, tango Moyize akitaki wuta na ngomba Sinai, na bitando ya mabanga mibale ya mibeko na maboko na ye, ayebaki te ete elongi na ye ezalaki kongenga, mpo ete asololaki na Yawe.
And it came to pass, when Moses came down out of Mount Sinai, with the two tables of testimony in the hand of Moses, when he came down out of the mount, that, Moses, knew not that the skin of his face shone, through his having spoken with him.
30 Tango Aron mpe bana nyonso ya Isalaele bamonaki ete elongi ya Moyize ezali kongenga, babangaki kopusana pembeni na ye.
And Aaron and all the sons of Israel saw Moses, and lo! the skin of his face shone, and they stood in awe of drawing nigh unto him.
31 Moyize abengaki bango; bongo Aron mpe bakambi nyonso ya lisanga ya Isalaele bapusanaki pembeni ya Moyize, mpe ye Moyize asololaki na bango.
So then Moses called unto them, and Aaron and all the princes in the assembly returned unto him, —and Moses spake unto them.
32 Sima na yango, bana nyonso ya Isalaele bapusanaki pembeni ya Moyize mpe ayebisaki bango mibeko nyonso oyo Yawe apesaki ye na ngomba Sinai.
And afterwards, came nigh, all the sons of Israel, and he gave them in commandment all that Yahweh had spoken with him in Mount Sinai.
33 Tango Moyize asilisaki kosolola na bango, azipaki elongi na ye na vwale.
And when Moses had made an end of speaking with them, he put over his face a veil:
34 Kasi tango nyonso Moyize azalaki kokota liboso ya Yawe mpo na kosolola na Ye, azalaki kolongola vwale kino tango akobima. Mpe soki abimi, azalaki koyebisa na bana ya Isalaele mibeko nyonso oyo azalaki kozwa epai na Yawe.
but, as often as Moses went in before Yahweh to speak with him, he put aside the veil until he came out, —and, as often as he came out and spake unto the sons of Israel, that which he had been commanded,
35 Mpe bana ya Isalaele bazalaki komona elongi ya Moyize kongenga. Bongo azalaki kozongisa vwale na elongi na ye kino tango azalaki kozonga mpo na kosolola na Yawe.
the sons of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses face shone, —so Moses again put the veil over his face, until he went in to speak with him.
