Levitike 19
1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 « Yebisa lisanga mobimba ya bana ya Isalaele: ‹ Bozala bule, pamba te Ngai Yawe, Nzambe na bino, nazali Bule.
"Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and tell them, 'You shall be holy; for I the LORD your God am holy.
3 Moto nyonso kati na bino asengeli kotosa mama mpe tata na ye, mpe bosengeli kotosa mikolo na Ngai ya Saba. Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
"'Each one of you shall respect his mother and his father. You shall keep my Sabbaths. I am the LORD your God.
4 Bomipesa te na banzambe ya bikeko to bomisalela te banzambe ya bikeko ya bibende; Ngai nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
"'Do not turn to idols, nor make molten gods for yourselves. I am the LORD your God.
5 Tango bokobonza mbeka ya boyokani epai na Yawe, bosala yango na ndenge esengeli mpo ete endimama mpo na bolamu na bino.
"'When you offer a sacrifice of peace offerings to the LORD, you shall offer it so that you may be accepted.
6 Bosengeli kolia yango kaka na mokolo oyo bobonzi yango lokola mbeka to na mokolo oyo elandi. Mpe eloko nyonso oyo ekotikala, bosengeli kozikisa yango na moto na mokolo ya misato.
It shall be eaten the same day you offer it, and on the next day: and if anything remains until the third day, it shall be burned with fire.
7 Kasi na mokolo yango ya misato, mbeka yango ekokoma mbindo; soki moto moko alie yango, nakondima yango lisusu te.
If it is eaten at all on the third day, it is an abomination. It will not be accepted;
8 Moto nyonso oyo akolia yango, akomema mokumba ya mabe na ye mpo ete asambwisi eloko oyo ezali bule mpo na Yawe, mpe basengeli kobengana ye kati na bato na ye.
but everyone who eats it shall bear his iniquity, because he has profaned the holy thing of the LORD, and that soul shall be cut off from his people.
9 Tango okobuka mbuma ya bilanga na yo, okobuka yango te kino na mondelo, mpe okozonga te mpo na kolokota mbuma oyo ekokweya.
"'When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field, neither shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest.
10 Okobuka mpe te mbuma ya vino oyo ekotikala to kolokota oyo ekokweya. Okotika yango mpo na babola to bapaya: nazali Yawe Nzambe na yo.
You shall not glean your vineyard, neither shall you gather the fallen grapes of your vineyard; you shall leave them for the poor and for the foreigner. I am the LORD your God.
11 Okoyiba te, okoloba lokuta te, moto moko te akosa moninga na ye.
"'You shall not steal; neither shall you deal falsely, nor lie to one another.
12 Okolapa te ndayi ya lokuta na Kombo na Ngai mpe okobebisa te bosantu ya Kombo ya Nzambe na yo. Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na yo.
"'You shall not swear by my name falsely, and profane the name of your God. I am the LORD.
13 Okonyokola te moninga na yo to okoyiba ye te. Okobomba te lifuti ya mosali na yo butu mobimba kino na tongo.
"'You shall not oppress your neighbor, nor rob him. The wages of a hired servant shall not remain with you all night until the morning.
14 Okolakela mabe te moto oyo akufa matoyi mpe okotia libaku te liboso ya mokufi miso, kasi okotosa Nzambe na yo. Nazali Yawe.
"'You shall not curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling block before the blind; but you shall fear your God. I am the LORD.
15 Okosambisa na bosembo. Okokotela te, ezala mobola to mozwi. Okosambisa moninga na yo na bosembo.
"'You shall do no injustice in judgment: you shall not be partial to the poor, nor show favoritism to the great; but you shall judge your neighbor in righteousness.

"'You shall not go up and down as a slanderer among your people; neither shall you stand against the life of your neighbor. I am the LORD.
17 Okoyina ndeko na yo te na motema na yo; kasi pamela moninga mpo ete omema ngambo te na likambo na ye.
"'You shall not hate your brother in your heart. You shall surely rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him.
18 Okozongisa mabe na mabe te to okobombela moko kati na bato na yo kanda te, kasi okolinga moninga na yo ndenge yo moko omilingaka. Nazali Yawe.
"'You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people; but you shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD.
19 Okobatela bikateli na ngai: okosangisa nzoto te ya banyama mibale ya lolenge mibale ekesana; okolona mpe te na elanga na yo nkona mibale ekesana. Okolata te elamba oyo batongi na basinga mibale ekesana.
"'You shall keep my statutes. "'You shall not crossbreed different kinds of animals. "'you shall not sow your field with two kinds of seed; "'neither shall there come upon you a garment made of two kinds of material.
20 Soki mobali moko asangisi nzoto na mwasi oyo azali mobandami ya mobali mosusu, kasi nanu bapeseli ye te biloko ya libala to kopesa ye bonsomi, esengeli mobali wana afuta lomande. Nzokande bango mibale, bakoboma bango te mpo ete mwasi yango asikolamaki nanu te.
"'If a man lies carnally with a woman who is a slave girl, pledged to be married to another man, and not ransomed, or given her freedom; they shall be punished. They shall not be put to death, because she was not free.
21 Mpe mobali asengeli komema na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani meme ya mobali oyo akobonza epai na Yawe lokola mbeka mpo na masumu.
He shall bring his trespass offering to the LORD, to the door of the Tent of Meeting, even a ram for a trespass offering.
22 Bongo na nzela ya meme yango ya mbeka mpo na masumu, Nganga-Nzambe akosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu ya mobali yango liboso ya Yawe, mpe masumu oyo asilaki kosala ekolimbisama.
The priest shall make atonement for him with the ram of the trespass offering before the LORD for his sin which he has committed: and the sin which he has committed shall be forgiven him.
23 Tango bokokota na mokili ya Kanana, bokolona banzete ya lolenge nyonso oyo ebotaka mbuma. Na mibu misato, bokozwa bambuma na yango nyonso lokola bambuma ya mbindo; boye bokolia yango te.

But in the fourth year all its fruit shall be holy, for giving praise to the LORD.
