Levitike 2
1 Soki moto alingi komema makabo ya mbuma epai na Yawe, makabo yango ekozala ya farine. Bongo na likolo na yango, akosopa mafuta mpe akotia ansa.
‘If you bring to Yahweh an offering of grain, it must consist of finely-ground flour. You must pour olive oil on it, and put some incense on it,
2 Akomema yango epai ya Banganga-Nzambe, bana mibali ya Aron, oyo moko kati na bango akozwa loboko mobimba ya farine mpe mafuta elongo na ansa nyonso, mpe akotumba yango na etumbelo lokola ekaniseli. Ezali likabo bazikisa na moto, oyo solo kitoko na yango ekosepelisa Yawe.
and take it to one of the priests. The priest will take a handful of the flour and the oil with the incense and burn it on the altar. That part will symbolize [that all of the offering truly belongs to Yahweh]. And the aroma will be pleasing to Yahweh.
3 Ndambo oyo ekotikala, kati na makabo ya mbuma, ekozala ya Aron mpe ya bana na ye. Ezali eteni ya bule penza kati na makabo bazikisa na moto mpo na Yawe.
The part of that offering that is not burned will belong to Aaron and his sons. It is a very holy part of the offerings that are given to Yahweh by [burning them] in a fire.
4 Soki amemi likabo ya farine batumba na fulu ya moto, likabo yango esengeli kozala ya gato oyo ezanga levire, oyo basangisa na mafuta to ya mikate oyo ezanga levire mpe bapakola mafuta na likolo na yango.
‘If you bring an offering that is made from grain, something that is baked in an oven, it must be made from finely-ground flour. You may bring loaves made from flour mixed with olive oil but without yeast, or you may bring wafers with olive oil smeared on them, but also made without yeast.
5 Soki ezali likabo bakalinga na kikalungu, esengeli kozala ya farine ezanga levire mpe basangisa na mafuta.
If your offering is cooked (on a griddle/in a shallow pan), it must be made from finely-ground flour mixed with olive oil and without yeast.
6 Bakokata yango na biteni mpe bakosopa mafuta likolo na yango. Ezali likabo ya bambuma.
You must crumble it and pour olive oil on it. That will be your offering made from grain.
7 Bongo soki likabo yango ezali ya bambuma bakalinga na kikalungu, ekozala ya farine basangisa na mafuta.
If your offering that is made from grain is cooked in a pan, it must be made of finely-ground flour mixed with olive oil.
8 Bakomema epai na Yawe makabo ya mbuma oyo babongisi mpe bakopesa yango epai ya Nganga-Nzambe oyo akomema yango na etumbelo.
Bring to Yahweh your grain offering. Give it to the priest, and he will take it to the altar.
9 Nganga-Nzambe akolongola na makabo ya mbuma eteni oyo esengeli kobonzama lokola ekaniseli mpe akotumba yango na etumbelo. Ezali likabo bazikisa na moto oyo solo kitoko na yango ekosepelisa Yawe.
He will take a part of it that will symbolize that all the offering belongs to Yahweh. He will burn that part on the altar, and the aroma as it burns will be pleasing to Yahweh.
10 Bongo bagato oyo ekotikala, ekozala ya Aron mpe ya bana na ye ya mibali. Ezali eteni ya bule penza kati na makabo bazikisa na moto mpo na Yawe.
The part that is not burned will belong to Aaron and his sons. It is a very holy part of the offerings given to Yahweh by [burning them] in a fire.
11 Likabo moko te ya mbuma, oyo bokomemela Yawe ekozala na levire, pamba te bokotumba te levire to mafuta ya nzoyi lokola likabo bazikisa na moto mpo na Yawe.
‘Every offering that is made from grain and that you bring to Yahweh must be made without yeast, because you must not put any yeast or honey in any offering to Yahweh that is burned [on the altar].
12 Okomema yango epai na Yawe lokola likabo ya bambuma ya liboso, kasi bokobonza yango te na etumbelo lokola makabo ya solo kitoko.
You may bring to Yahweh an offering of the first part of your harvest, but that is not to be burned on the altar to produce an aroma that will be pleasing to Yahweh.
13 Okotia mungwa na makabo na yo nyonso ya bambuma mpe okobosana te kotia mungwa na likabo na yo ya bambuma, pamba te ezali elembo ya boyokani oyo Nzambe na yo asalaki. Okotia mungwa na makabo na yo nyonso.
Put salt on all your offerings that are made from grain. The salt represents the agreement that your God [made with] you, so be sure that you do not forget to put salt on those offerings.
14 Soki omemeli Yawe likabo ya bambuma ya liboso, okomema bambuma ya sika bakalinga na moto mpe batuta.
‘If you bring to Yahweh an offering of the first part of your harvest of grain, offer some new grain that has been crushed and roasted in a fire.
15 Okosopela yango mafuta mpe ansa. Ezali likabo ya bambuma.
Put olive oil and incense on it, and that will be your offering made from grain.
16 Bongo Nganga-Nzambe asengeli kotumba eteni ya likabo elongo na ansa nyonso lokola ekaniseli. Ezali likabo bazikisa na moto mpo na Yawe.
The priest will take a part of the flour and oil along with the incense. [That will symbolize that all the offering truly belongs to Yahweh]. He will burn that part on the altar, to be an offering given to Yahweh by [burning it] in a fire.’”
