< Levitike 16 >

1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize, sima na kufa ya bana mibali mibale ya Aron, oyo bakufaki tango bapusanaki liboso ya Yawe.
And the Lord said to Moses, after the death of the two sons of Aaron when they took in strange fire before the Lord and death overtook them;
2 Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Loba na Aron, ndeko na yo ya mobali, ete akotaka tango nyonso te na Esika ya bule, na sima ya rido, liboso ya esika ya bolimbisi masumu, likolo ya Sanduku mpo ete akufa te; pamba te namimonisaka na nzela ya lipata likolo ya esika ya bolimbisi masumu.
The Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron, your brother, that he may not come at all times into the holy place inside the veil, before the cover which is on the ark, for fear that death may overtake him; for I will be seen in the cloud on the cover of the ark.
3 Tala ndenge Aron akobanda kokota na Esika ya bule: akomema ngombe moko ya mobali lokola mbeka ya masumu mpe meme moko ya mobali lokola mbeka ya kotumba.
Let Aaron come into the holy place in this way: with an ox for a sin-offering and a male sheep for a burned offering.
4 Akolata na nzoto na ye: nzambala ya bule basala na lino mpe bakaputula ya lino; akomikanga mokaba ya lino mpe kitendi ya lino na moto na ye. Lokola bilamba oyo ezali ya bule, asengeli komisukola nzoto na ye na mayi liboso ya kolata yango.
Let him put on the holy linen coat, and the linen trousers on his body, and the linen band round him, and the linen head-dress on his head; for this is holy clothing, and before he puts them on his body is to be washed with water.
5 Aron akozwa kati na lisanga ya bana ya Isalaele: bantaba mibale ya mibali lokola mbeka ya masumu mpe meme moko ya mobali lokola mbeka ya kotumba.
And let him take from the children of Israel two he-goats for a sin-offering and one male sheep for a burned offering.
6 Aron akobonza mpo na ye moko, ngombe ya mobali lokola mbeka ya masumu mpe akosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na ye moko mpe mpo na ndako na ye.
And Aaron is to give the ox of the sin-offering for himself, to make himself and his house free from sin.
7 Akozwa bantaba ya mibali nyonso mibale mpe akotia yango liboso ya Yawe, na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.
And he is to take the two goats and put them before the Lord at the door of the Tent of meeting.
8 Aron akobeta zeke mpo na bantaba ya mibali nyonso mibale: moko mpo na Yawe, mpe mosusu, mpo na Azazeli.
And Aaron will make selection from the two goats by the decision of the Lord, one goat for the Lord and one for Azazel.
9 Bongo Aron akomema ntaba oyo zeke ekolakisa ete ezali mpo na Yawe, mpe akobonza yango lokola mbeka mpo na masumu.
And the goat which is marked out for the Lord, let Aaron give for a sin-offering.
10 Kasi ntaba ya mobali oyo zeke ekolakisa ete ezali mpo na Azazeli, akomema yango ya bomoi liboso ya Yawe mpo ete basala na yango mosala ya bolimbisi masumu, bongo bakotinda yango na esobe mpo na Azazeli.
But the goat for Azazel is to be placed living before the Lord, for the taking away of sin, that it may be sent away for Azazel into the waste land.
11 Aron akobonza, mpo na ye moko, ngombe ya mobali lokola mbeka mpo na masumu mpe akosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu na ye moko mpe ya ndako na ye. Sima na ye kokata kingo ya ngombe ya mobali oyo abonzi mpo na ye moko lokola mbeka ya masumu,
And Aaron is to give the ox of the sin-offering for himself and take away sin from himself and his house, and put to death the ox of the sin-offering which is for himself.
12 akotondisa mbabola ya kotumba malasi na makala ya moto oyo ewuti na etumbelo liboso ya Yawe mpe akotondisa maboko na ye mibale na malasi ya putulu, bongo akomema yango na sima ya rido.
And he is to take a vessel full of burning coal from the altar before the Lord and in his hand some sweet perfume crushed small, and take it inside the veil;
13 Akotia malasi na moto liboso ya Yawe mpo ete milinga na yango ezipa esika ya bolimbisi oyo ezali likolo ya Sanduku ya Boyokani mpo ete akufa te.
And let him put the perfume on the fire before the Lord so that the ark may be covered with a cloud of the smoke of the perfume, in order that death may not overtake him.
14 Akozwa makila ya ngombe ya mobali mpe, na nzela ya mosapi na ye, akobwaka yango liboso ya esika ya bolimbisi masumu, na ngambo ya este. Boye, na nzela ya mosapi na ye, akobwaka makila mbala sambo liboso ya esika ya bolimbisi masumu.
And let him take some of the blood of the ox, shaking drops of it from his finger on the cover of the ark on the east side, and before it, seven times.
15 Akokata kingo ya ntaba ya mobali ya mbeka mpo na masumu ya bato mpe akomema makila na yango na sima ya rido. Bongo akosala na makila yango ndenge asalaki na makila ya ngombe ya mobali: akobwaka liboso mpe likolo ya esika ya bolimbisi masumu.
Then let him put to death the goat of the sin-offering for the people, and take its blood inside the veil and do with it as he did with the blood of the ox, shaking drops of it on and before the cover of the ark.
16 Na nzela wana, akosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na Esika ya bule likolo ya mbindo, botomboki mpe masumu ya bana ya Isalaele. Akosala mpe ndenge moko mpo na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani oyo ezali elongo na bango kati na mbindo na bango.
And let him make the holy place free from whatever is unclean among the children of Israel and from their wrongdoing in all their sins; and let him do the same for the Tent of meeting, which has its place among an unclean people.
17 Moto moko te akozala kati na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani tango Aron akokota kuna mpo na kosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu kati na Esika ya bule kino tango akobima na libanda. Mpe akosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na ye moko, mpo na ndako na ye mpe mpo na lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele.
And no man may be in the Tent of meeting from the time when Aaron goes in to take away sin in the holy place till he comes out, having made himself and his house and all the people of Israel free from sin.
18 Sima na yango, akobima mpo na kokende na etumbelo oyo ezali liboso ya Yawe mpe akosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na etumbelo yango. Akozwa makila ya ngombe ya mobali mpe ya ntaba ya mobali mpe akotia yango na maseke ya etumbelo.
And he is to go out to the altar which is before the Lord and make it free from sin; and he is to take some of the blood of the ox and the blood of the goat and put it on the horns of the altar and round it;
19 Mpe na nzela ya mosapi na ye, akobwaka makila mbala sambo na etumbelo. Ezali na nzela wana nde akopetola mpe akobulisa yango na mbindo ya bana ya Isalaele.
Shaking drops of the blood from his finger on it seven times to make it holy and clean from whatever is unclean among the children of Israel.
20 Tango Aron akosilisa kosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na Esika ya bule, mpo na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpe mpo na etumbelo, akomema ntaba ya mobali ya bomoi.
And when he has done whatever is necessary to make the holy place and the Tent of meeting and the altar free from sin, let him put the living goat before the Lord;
21 Aron akotia maboko na ye mibale na moto ya ntaba yango, akotubela mabe, botomboki mpe masumu nyonso ya bana ya Isalaele na moto ya ntaba yango. Na nzela wana akotia masumu nyonso na moto ya ntaba yango; sima akopona moto moko mpo na kobengana ntaba yango na esobe.
And Aaron, placing his two hands on the head of the living goat, will make a public statement over him of all the evil doings of the children of Israel and all their wrongdoing, in all their sins; and he will put them on the head of the goat and send him away, in the care of a man who will be waiting there, into the waste land.
22 Boye ntaba ekomema masumu na bango nyonso na esika oyo ezanga bato, mpe moto yango akotika ntaba kokende na esobe.
And the goat will take all their sins into a land cut off from men, and he will send the goat away into the waste land.
23 Bongo Aron akokota na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, akolongola bilamba ya lino oyo alataki tango akotaki na Esika ya bule mpe akotika yango kuna.
Then let Aaron come into the Tent of meeting and take off the linen clothing which he put on when he went into the holy place, and put them down there;
24 Akosukola nzoto na ye na mayi na esika moko ya bule; mpe akolata bilamba na ye. Sima, akobima libanda mpe akobonza mbeka ya kotumba mpo na ye moko mpe mpo na bato. Na nzela wana nde akosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na ye moko mpe mpo na bato.
And after bathing his body in water in a holy place, he is to put on his clothing and come out and give his burned offering and the burned offering of the people, to take away his sin and the sin of the people.
25 Akotumba mafuta ya mbeka ya masumu na likolo ya etumbelo.
And the fat of the sin-offering is to be burned by him on the altar.
26 Moto oyo akobengana ntaba ya mobali mpo na Azazeli, asengeli kosukola nzoto na ye na mayi; mpe sima na yango, akozonga na molako.
And the man who takes away the goat for Azazel is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water and then he may come back to the tent-circle.
27 Bakomema libanda ya molako ngombe ya mobali mpe ntaba ya mobali ya mbeka ya masumu oyo bamemaki makila na yango na Esika ya bule mpo na kosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpe bakotumba na moto poso na yango, misuni na yango mpe banyei na yango.
And the ox of the sin-offering and the goat of the sin-offering, whose blood was taken in to make the holy place free from sin, are to be taken away outside the tent-circle and their skins and their flesh and their waste are to be burned with fire.
28 Moto oyo akotumba yango asengeli kosukola na mayi bilamba na ye mpe nzoto na ye, sima na yango nde akoki kozonga na molako.
And the man by whom they are burned is to have his clothing washed and his body bathed in water, and then he may come back to the tent-circle.
29 Tala malako oyo bosengeli kosalela mpo na libela: na mokolo ya zomi ya sanza ya sambo, ezala mwana mboka to mopaya oyo avandi kati na bino, bosengeli komikitisa mpe bokosala mosala ata moko te,
And let this be an order to you for ever: in the seventh month, on the tenth day, you are to keep yourselves from pleasure and do no sort of work, those who are Israelites by birth and those from other lands who are living among you:
30 pamba te na mokolo wana nde bokosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na bino mpe kopetolama bino. Boye bokopetolama na masumu na bino nyonso liboso ya Yawe.
For on this day your sin will be taken away and you will be clean: you will be made free from all your sins before the Lord.
31 Ekozala mpo na bino mokolo ya Saba, mokolo ya bopemi, mpe bosengeli komikitisa. Ezali malako ya libela.
It is a special Sabbath for you, and you are to keep yourselves from pleasure; it is an order for ever.
32 Nganga-Nzambe oyo bakopakola mafuta mpe akobulisama mpo na kosala mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe na esika ya tata na ye, akosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu. Akolata bilamba ya bule ya lino.
And the man on whose head the holy oil has been put, and who has been marked out to be a priest in his father's place, will do what is necessary to take away sin, and will put on the linen clothing, even the holy robes:
33 Akosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na ndako ya bule, mpo na Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani, mpo na etumbelo, mpo na Nganga-Nzambe mpe mpo na bato nyonso ya lisanga.
And he will make the holy place and the Tent of meeting and the altar free from sin; he will take away sin from the priests and from all the people.
34 Oyo nde ekozala mpo na bino malako ya libela: mbala moko na mobu, bokosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu nyonso ya bana ya Isalaele. » Mpe basalaki ndenge kaka Yawe atindaki Moyize.
And let this be an order for ever for you, so that the sin of the children of Israel may be taken away once every year. And he did as the Lord gave orders to Moses.
