Levitike 17
1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 « Yebisa Aron, bana na ye ya mibali mpe bana nyonso ya Isalaele, mpe loba na bango: ‹ Tala maloba oyo Yawe alobi:
Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel, and say to them, This is the thing which Jehovah has commanded, saying,
3 ‘Moto nyonso kati na bana ya Isalaele, oyo akokata kingo ya ngombe, ya meme to ya ntaba, ezala kati na molako to na libanda ya molako;
Whatever man there is of the house of Israel, who kills an ox, or lamb, or goat, in the camp, or who kills it outside the camp,
4 mpe amemi yango te na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpo na kobonza yango lokola likabo epai na Yawe liboso ya Mongombo ya Yawe, makila na yango ekotangama na moto ya moto yango. Lokola asopi makila, bakolongola ye kati na bato na ye.
and has not brought it to the door of the tent of meeting, to offer it as an oblation to Jehovah before the tabernacle of Jehovah, blood shall be imputed to that man. He has shed blood, and that man shall be cut off from among his people,
5 Boye, na esika ete bana ya Isalaele bamemaka bambeka na bango na bilanga, bakomema yango mpo na Yawe epai ya Nganga-Nzambe, na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani lokola mbeka ya boyokani epai na Yawe.
to the end that the sons of Israel may bring their sacrifices, which they sacrifice in the open field, even that they may bring them to Jehovah, to the door of the tent of meeting, to the priest, and sacrifice them for sacrifices of peace offerings to Jehovah.
6 Nganga-Nzambe akobwaka makila na etumbelo ya Yawe, na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpe akotumba mafuta na yango lokola mbeka oyo solo kitoko na yango ekosepelisa Yawe.
And the priest shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar of Jehovah at the door of the tent of meeting, and burn the fat for a sweet savor to Jehovah.
7 Bana ya Isalaele bakobonza lisusu te bambeka na bango epai banzambe ya bikeko ya bantaba ya mibali, oyo basambelaka. Oyo ekozala malako ya libela mpo na bango mpe mpo na milongo oyo ekoya.’ ›
And they shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices to the he-goats, after which they play the harlot. This shall be a statute forever to them throughout their generations.
8 Loba na bango: ‹ Moto nyonso ya Isalaele to mopaya nyonso oyo azali kati na bango, oyo akobonza mbeka ya kotumba to mbeka mosusu,
And thou shall say to them, Whatever man there is of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among them, who offers a burnt offering or sacrifice,
9 na kozanga komema yango na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani mpo na kobonza yango epai ya Yawe, bakolongola ye kati na bato ya Isalaele.
and does not bring it to the door of the tent of meeting, to sacrifice it to Jehovah, that man shall be cut off from his people.
10 Nakobalukela mpe nakolongola kati na bato na ye, moto nyonso oyo akolia makila, azala moto ya Isalaele to mopaya nyonso oyo avandi kati na bango;
And whatever man there is of the house of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among them, who eats any manner of blood, I will set my face against that soul who eats blood, and will cut him off from among his people.
11 pamba te bomoi ya ekelamu nyonso ezali kati na makila. Napesi bino yango mpo ete bosala na yango mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na bomoi na bino, na etumbelo. Lokola bomoi ya moto ezali kati na makila, yango wana makila esalaka mosala ya bolimbisi masumu.
For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls, for it is the blood that makes atonement by reason of the life.
12 Boye, nalobaki na bana ya Isalaele: ‘Moto moko te mpe mopaya moko te kati na bino akoki kolia makila.’
Therefore I said to the sons of Israel, No soul of you shall eat blood, nor shall any stranger that sojourns among you eat blood.
13 Moto nyonso kati na bana ya Isalaele to mopaya oyo avandi kati na bango, oyo akokende bokila mpe akokanga nyama ya zamba to ndeke oyo baliaka, asengeli kosopa makila na yango mpe kozipa yango na mabele, pamba te bomoi ya ekelamu nyonso ezali kati na makila na yango.
And whatever man there is of the sons of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn among them, who takes any beast or bird in hunting that may be eaten, he shall pour out the blood of it, and cover it with dust.
14 Yango wana, nalobaki na bana ya Isalaele: ‘Bokoki kolia makila ya ekelamu ata moko te, pamba te bomoi ya ekelamu nyonso ezali kati na makila na yango. Moto oyo akolia yango, bakolongola ye kati na bato.’
For as to the life of all flesh, the blood of it is with the life of it. Therefore I said to the sons of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh, for the life of all flesh is the blood of it. Whoever eats it shall be cut off.
15 Moto nyonso, azala mwana mboka to mopaya, oyo akolia mosuni ya nyama oyo ekufi yango moko to oyo babomi na nyama ya zamba, akosukola bilamba na ye mpe nzoto na ye na mayi. Akozala mbindo kino na pokwa, sima na yango akokoma peto.
And every soul who eats that which dies of itself, or that which is torn of beasts, whether he be home-born or a sojourner, he shall wash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening, then he shall be clean.
16 Kasi soki asukoli bilamba mpe nzoto na ye te, akomema ngambo. › »
But if he does not wash them, nor bathe his flesh, then he shall bear his iniquity.
