Levitike 14

1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:

Then the LORD said to Moses,

2 « Tala mobeko oyo etali moto oyo azali na bokono ya maba, na mokolo ya kopetolama na ye: ‹ Basengeli komema moto oyo azali na bokono ya maba epai ya Nganga-Nzambe.

“This is the law for the one afflicted with a skin disease on the day of his cleansing, when he is brought to the priest.

3 Nganga-Nzambe akokende libanda ya molako mpo na kotala ye malamu. Soki abiki na bokono na ye ya maba,

The priest is to go outside the camp to examine him, and if the skin disease of the afflicted person has healed,

4 Nganga-Nzambe akopesa mitindo ete bamema biloko oyo, mpo na kopetolama ya moto oyo abiki na bokono ya maba: bandeke mibale ya peto mpe ya bomoi, eteni ya nzete ya sedele, eteni ya elamba ya motane makasi mpe eteni ya nzete ya izope.

the priest shall order that two live clean birds, cedar wood, scarlet yarn, and hyssop be brought for the one to be cleansed.

5 Nganga-Nzambe akopesa mitindo ete bakata kingo ya ndeke moko kati na bandeke wana mibale, na likolo ya sani basala na mabele mpe etondi na mayi ya peto.

Then the priest shall command that one of the birds be slaughtered over fresh water in a clay pot.

6 Bongo akokamata ndeke ya mibale, ya bomoi, elongo na eteni ya nzete ya sedele, eteni ya elamba ya motane makasi mpe eteni ya nzete ya izope; akozindisa yango kati na makila ya ndeke oyo bawuti kokata kingo na likolo ya mayi ya peto;

And he is to take the live bird together with the cedar wood, scarlet yarn, and hyssop, and dip them into the blood of the bird that was slaughtered over the fresh water.

7 akosopa makila yango mbala sambo na nzoto ya moto oyo asengeli kopetolama na maba. Sima na yango, Nganga-Nzambe akotatola ete moto yango akomi peto; mpe akotika ndeke oyo ya bomoi kopumbwa mpe kokende na zamba.

Seven times he shall sprinkle the one to be cleansed of the skin disease. Then he shall pronounce him clean and release the live bird into the open field.

8 Moto oyo asengeli na kopetolama akosukola bilamba na ye, akokata bapwale na ye nyonso mpe akomisukola nzoto na mayi; sima na yango, akokoma peto. Bongo, akoki kozonga kati na molako, kasi akovanda mikolo sambo libanda ya ndako na ye ya kapo.

The one being cleansed must wash his clothes, shave off all his hair, and bathe with water; then he will be ceremonially clean. Afterward, he may enter the camp, but he must remain outside his tent for seven days.

9 Na mokolo ya sambo, akokata lisusu bapwale na ye, suki na ye ya moto mpe ya miso, mandefu na ye mpe bapwale nyonso mosusu; akosukola bilamba na ye mpe akomisukola nzoto na mayi. Na bongo, akozala peto.

On the seventh day he must shave off all his hair—his head, his beard, his eyebrows, and the rest of his hair. He must wash his clothes and bathe himself with water, and he will be clean.

10 Na mokolo ya mwambe, akokamata bana meme mibale ezanga mbeba elongo na meme moko ya mwasi ezanga mbeba mpe esili kokokisa mobu moko, kilo libwa ya farine basangisa na mafuta lokola, likabo ya bambuma, mpe kati-kati ya litele moko ya mafuta.

On the eighth day he is to bring two unblemished male lambs, an unblemished ewe lamb a year old, a grain offering of three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with olive oil, and one log of olive oil.

11 Nganga-Nzambe oyo azali kosala mosala ya kopetola akotia ye elongo na makabo na ye liboso ya Yawe, na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.

The priest who performs the cleansing shall present the one to be cleansed, together with these offerings, before the LORD at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

12 Nganga-Nzambe akozwa mwana meme ya liboso mpe akobonza yango elongo na kati-kati ya litele moko ya mafuta lokola mbeka mpo na kozongisa boyokani; akotombola yango liboso ya Yawe.

Then the priest is to take one of the male lambs and present it as a guilt offering, along with the log of olive oil; and he must wave them as a wave offering before the LORD.

13 Akokata mwana meme yango kingo na esika oyo babomaka banyama oyo babonzi epai ya Nzambe lokola mbeka mpo na bolimbisi masumu mpe lokola mbeka ya kotumba, kati na esika yango ya bule; pamba te, ezala mbeka mpo na kozongisa boyokani to mbeka mpo na bolimbisi masumu, ezali ya Nganga-Nzambe: ezali eloko ya bule koleka.

Then he is to slaughter the lamb in the sanctuary area where the sin offering and burnt offering are slaughtered. Like the sin offering, the guilt offering belongs to the priest; it is most holy.

14 Nganga-Nzambe akozwa makila ya mbeka oyo ebonzami mpo na kozongisa boyokani, akopakola yango na likolo ya litoyi ya ngambo ya loboko ya mobali ya moto oyo azali komipetola, na mosapi ya liboso ya loboko na ye ya ngambo ya mobali mpe na mosapi ya liboso ya lokolo na ye ya ngambo ya loboko ya mobali.

The priest is to take some of the blood from the guilt offering and put it on the right earlobe of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.

15 Nganga-Nzambe akokamata kati-kati ya litele ya mafuta mpe akosopa ndambo na yango na loboko na ye ya ngambo ya mwasi.

Then the priest shall take some of the log of olive oil, pour it into his left palm,

16 Nganga-Nzambe akozindisa, kati na mafuta oyo asili kosopa na loboko na ye ya ngambo ya mwasi, mosapi ya mibale ya loboko na ye ya ngambo ya mobali mpe akosalela yango mpo na kosopa mbala sambo mafuta liboso ya Yawe.

dip his right forefinger into the oil in his left palm, and sprinkle some of the oil with his finger seven times before the LORD.

17 Bongo kati na mafuta oyo ekotikala ye na loboko, Nganga-Nzambe akokamata ndambo na yango mpo na kopakola na likolo ya litoyi ya ngambo ya loboko ya mobali ya moto oyo azali komipetola, na mosapi ya liboso ya loboko na ye ya ngambo ya mobali mpe na mosapi ya liboso ya lokolo na ye ya ngambo ya loboko ya mobali, kaka na esika oyo awuti kotia makila ya mwana meme oyo ebonzami lokola mbeka mpo na kozongisa boyokani.

And the priest is to put some of the oil remaining in his palm on the right earlobe of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot, on top of the blood of the guilt offering.

18 Bongo Nganga-Nzambe akosopa, na moto ya moto oyo azali komipetola, mafuta oyo ekotikala na loboko na ye mpo na kosala, liboso ya Yawe, mosala ya bolimbisi masumu na ye.

The rest of the oil in his palm, the priest is to put on the head of the one to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before the LORD.

19 Sima na yango, Nganga-Nzambe akobonza, liboso ya Nzambe, mbeka mpo na masumu, mpo ete asala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu ya moto oyo azali komipetola na mbindo na ye; mpe akokata lisusu kingo ya nyama oyo ebonzami lokola mbeka ya kotumba.

Then the priest is to sacrifice the sin offering and make atonement for the one to be cleansed from his uncleanness. After that, the priest shall slaughter the burnt offering

20 Nganga-Nzambe akotia mbeka yango na likolo ya etumbelo elongo na makabo ya farine. Boye, Nganga-Nzambe akosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu ya moto yango, mpe akozala peto.

and offer it on the altar, with the grain offering, to make atonement for him, and he will be clean.

21 Soki moto yango azali mobola, bongo akoki kozwa te biloko wana nyonso, akokamata kaka mwana meme moko lokola mbeka mpo na kozongisa boyokani, mpo na kobonza yango mpo na mosala ya bolimbisi masumu ya moto yango; akobakisa na likolo na yango lokola makabo bakilo misato ya farine basangisa na mafuta mpe kati-kati ya litele moko ya mafuta.

If, however, the person is poor and cannot afford these offerings, he is to take one male lamb as a guilt offering to be waved to make atonement for him, along with a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with olive oil for a grain offering, a log of olive oil,

22 Akobonza lisusu bibenga mibale kolanda bozwi na ye: moko lokola mbeka mpo na bolimbisi masumu, mosusu lokola mbeka ya kotumba.

and two turtledoves or two young pigeons, whichever he can afford, one to be a sin offering and the other a burnt offering.

23 Na mokolo ya mwambe, akomema yango epai ya Nganga-Nzambe, na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, liboso ya Yawe, mpo na kopetolama na ye.

On the eighth day he is to bring them for his cleansing to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting before the LORD.

24 Nganga-Nzambe akokamata mafuta mpe mwana meme oyo ebonzami lokola mbeka mpo na bolimbisi masumu, mpe akobonza yango epai na Yawe.

The priest shall take the lamb for the guilt offering, along with the log of olive oil, and wave them as a wave offering before the LORD.

25 Akokata kingo ya mwana meme yango oyo ebonzami lokola mbeka mpo na bolimbisi masumu. Nganga-Nzambe akotia makila ya mbeka mpo na bolimbisi masumu, na likolo ya litoyi ya ngambo ya loboko ya mobali ya moto oyo azali komipetola, na mosapi ya liboso ya loboko na ye ya ngambo ya mobali mpe na mosapi ya liboso ya lokolo na ye ya ngambo ya loboko ya mobali.

And after he slaughters the lamb for the guilt offering, the priest is to take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the right earlobe of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot.

26 Nganga-Nzambe akosopa lisusu ndambo ya mafuta na loboko na ye ya ngambo ya mwasi.

Then the priest is to pour some of the oil into his left palm

27 Mpe na nzela ya mosapi ya mibale ya loboko na ye ya ngambo ya mobali, Nganga-Nzambe akokamata mpe akosopa mafuta yango mbala sambo, liboso ya Yawe.

and sprinkle with his right forefinger some of the oil in his left palm seven times before the LORD.

28 Nganga-Nzambe akokamata ndambo mosusu mpe akotia yango na likolo ya litoyi ya ngambo ya loboko ya mobali, ya moto oyo azali komipetola, na mosapi ya liboso ya loboko na ye ya ngambo ya mobali mpe na mosapi na ye liboso ya lokolo na ye ya ngambo ya loboko ya mobali, mpe na bisika oyo atiaki makila ya mbeka mpo na bolimbisi masumu.

The priest shall also put some of the oil in his palm on the right earlobe of the one to be cleansed, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot—on the same places as the blood of the guilt offering.

29 Bongo mpo na ndambo ya makila oyo ekotikala na loboko na ye ya mwasi, Nganga-Nzambe akosopa yango na moto ya moto oyo azali komipetola, mpo na kosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu na ye liboso ya Yawe.

The rest of the oil in his palm, the priest is to put on the head of the one to be cleansed, to make atonement for him before the LORD.

30 Nganga-Nzambe akozwa moko kati na bibenga mibale oyo moto wana abonzi kolanda bozwi na ye

Then he must sacrifice the turtledoves or young pigeons, whichever he can afford,

31 mpe akobonza yango lokola mbeka mpo na masumu; bongo akobonza ebenga mosusu lokola mbeka ya kotumba elongo na makabo ya farine. Mpe Nganga-Nzambe akosala liboso ya Yawe, mosala ya bolimbisi masumu ya moto oyo azali komipetola. ›

one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering, together with the grain offering. In this way the priest will make atonement before the LORD for the one to be cleansed.

32 Wana nde mibeko oyo ezali kotala moto oyo abeli bokono ya maba, oyo azali penza na makoki te mpo na kopetolama na ye. »

This is the law for someone who has a skin disease and cannot afford the cost of his cleansing.”

33 Yawe alobaki na Moyize mpe Aron:

Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron,

34 « Tango bokokota na mokili ya Kanana oyo napesi bino, soki natie litono ya maba na ndako moko ya mokili oyo napesi bino,

“When you enter the land of Canaan, which I am giving you as your possession, and I put a contamination of mildew into a house in that land,

35 nkolo ndako asengeli kokende koloba boye epai ya Nganga-Nzambe: ‹ Namoni litono ya maba kati na ndako na ngai. ›

the owner of the house shall come and tell the priest, ‘Something like mildew has appeared in my house.’

36 Bongo Nganga-Nzambe akopesa mitindo ya kobima na ndako yango liboso ete ye akota kuna mpo na kotala malamu litono yango. Bongo akoloba ete biloko nyonso kati na ndako yango ezali peto. Sima na yango, Nganga-Nzambe akokota kati na yango mpo na kotala malamu.

The priest must order that the house be cleared before he enters it to examine the mildew, so that nothing in the house will become unclean. After this, the priest shall go in to inspect the house.

37 Akobanda kotala malamu litono yango kati na mir. Soki amoni ete ezwi langi ya mayi ya pondu to ya motane mpe esali lidusu kati na mir,

He is to examine the house, and if the mildew on the walls consists of green or red depressions that appear to be beneath the surface of the wall,

38 Nganga-Nzambe asengeli kobima wuta na ndako mpe kotelema na ekotelo na yango; bongo akokanga ndako yango mpo na mikolo sambo.

the priest shall go outside the doorway of the house and close it up for seven days.

39 Na mokolo ya sambo, Nganga-Nzambe akozonga mpo na kotala lisusu malamu. Soki litono yango epanzani kati na mir,

On the seventh day the priest is to return and inspect the house. If the mildew has spread on the walls,

40 Nganga-Nzambe akopesa mitindo ete balongola mabanga oyo ebebi na matono mpe babwaka yango libanda ya engumba na esika ya mbindo.

he must order that the contaminated stones be pulled out and thrown into an unclean place outside the city.

41 Bongo akosenga ete bakokola mir nyonso na ngambo na yango ya kati mpe babwaka libanda ya engumba na esika ya mbindo mabele nyonso oyo bakokola.

And he shall have the inside of the house scraped completely and the plaster that is scraped off dumped into an unclean place outside the city.

42 Sima, bakozongisa mabanga mosusu na bisika oyo balongolaki mpe bakozwa mabele mosusu mpo na kopakola ndako.

So different stones must be obtained to replace the contaminated ones, as well as additional mortar to replaster the house.

43 Sima na kolongola mabanga oyo ebebaki, kokokola bamir mpe kopakola mabele mosusu, soki litono esalemi lisusu,

If the mildew reappears in the house after the stones have been torn out and the house has been scraped and replastered,

44 Nganga-Nzambe akokende kotala lisusu malamu: soki amoni solo ete litono esalemi lisusu mpe epanzani, wana elakisi ete maba ezali kati na ndako mpe ndako yango ekokoma mbindo.

the priest must come and inspect it. If the mildew has spread in the house, it is a destructive mildew; the house is unclean.

45 Boye bakokweyisa ndako yango: mabanga mpe mabaya na yango nyonso ekobwakama na libanda ya engumba na esika ya mbindo.

It must be torn down with its stones, its timbers, and all its plaster, and taken outside the city to an unclean place.

46 Na mikolo nyonso oyo ndako ekozala ya kokangama, moto nyonso oyo akokota akozala mbindo kino na pokwa.

Anyone who enters the house during any of the days that it is closed up will be unclean until evening.

47 Moto nyonso oyo akolekisa butu to kolia kati na ndako yango, asengeli kosukola bilamba na ye.

And anyone who sleeps in the house or eats in it must wash his clothes.

48 Nzokande, soki na ngonga ya kotala malamu ndako sima na kopakola yango mabele, Nganga-Nzambe amoni te kobima ya litono, wana akoloba ete ndako yango ezali peto, pamba te mbindo na yango esili kolongwa.

If, however, the priest comes and inspects it, and the mildew has not spread after the house has been replastered, he shall pronounce the house clean, because the mildew is gone.

49 Boye mpo na kopetolama na yango, Nganga-Nzambe akozwa bandeke mibale, mabaya ya sedele, eteni ya elemba ya motane makasi mpe eteni ya nzete ya izope;

He is to take two birds, cedar wood, scarlet yarn, and hyssop to purify the house;

50 akokata kingo ya ndeke ya liboso na likolo ya sani oyo basala na mabele mpe ezali na mayi ya peto kati na yango.

and he shall slaughter one of the birds over fresh water in a clay pot.

51 Akokamata mabaya ya sedele, eteni ya nzete ya izope, eteni ya elamba ya motane makasi mpe ndeke mosusu, akozindisa yango kati na makila ya ndeke oyo asilaki kokata kingo mpe kati na mayi ya peto oyo akobwaka na likolo ya ndako mbala sambo.

Then he shall take the cedar wood, the hyssop, the scarlet yarn, and the live bird, dip them in the blood of the slaughtered bird and the fresh water, and sprinkle the house seven times.

52 Akopetola ndako na nzela ya makila ya ndeke, ya mayi ya peto, ya ndeke oyo ezali na bomoi, ya mabaya ya sedele, ya eteni ya nzete ya izope mpe ya eteni ya elamba ya motane.

And he shall cleanse the house with the bird’s blood, the fresh water, the live bird, the cedar wood, the hyssop, and the scarlet yarn.

53 Bongo akotika ndeke oyo etikalaki ya bomoi kokende na zamba, na libanda ya engumba. Ezali ndenge wana nde akosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu ya ndako; mpe ndako yango ekokoma peto. »

Finally, he is to release the live bird into the open fields outside the city. In this way he will make atonement for the house, and it will be clean.

54 Wana nde mibeko oyo etali lolenge nyonso ya maba, litono,

This is the law for any infectious skin disease, for a scaly outbreak,

55 maba ya elamba mpe ya ndako,

for mildew in clothing or in a house,

56 bambuma ya mike-mike, mapalata mpe matono oyo ezali kongenga,

and for a swelling, rash, or spot,

57 mpo na kotalisa soki moto azali mbindo to te. Yango nde mibeko oyo etali maba.

to determine when something is clean or unclean. This is the law regarding skin diseases and mildew.”
