Levitike 20
1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 ete apesa malako oyo epai ya bana ya Isalaele: « Soki moto moko ya Isalaele to mopaya oyo avandi kati na Isalaele abonzi moko kati na bana na ye lokola mbeka epai ya nzambe Moloki, esengeli baboma ye. Bato ya mokili bakobamba ye mabanga.
And to the children of Israel shalt thou say, Whatsoever man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth any of his seed unto Molech, shall surely be put to death; the people of the land shall stone him with stones.
3 Ngai nakotombokela moto yango mpe nakolongola ye kati na bato na ye, pamba te abonzaki mwana na ye lokola mbeka epai ya nzambe Moloki mpo na kokomisa mbindo Esika na Ngai ya bule mpe mpo na kobebisa bosantu ya Kombo na Ngai.
And I will set my face against that man, and I will cut him off from among his people; because of his seed hath he given unto Molech, in order to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
4 Mpe soki bato ya mokili bakangi miso na bango tango moto wana azali kobonza mwana na ye lokola mbeka epai ya nzambe Moloki mpe baboyi koboma ye,
And if the people of the land should in any way hide their eyes from that man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, so as not to kill him:
5 ngai nakotombokela moto yango mpe libota na ye, nakolongola bango na ekolo na bango, elongo na bato nyonso oyo balandaki ye mpo na kosalela nzambe Moloki.
Then will I set my face against that man, and against his family, and I will cut him off, and all that go astray after him, to go astray after Molech, from among their people.
6 Nakotombokela lisusu bato nyonso oyo balandaka moto oyo asololaka na bakufi mpe banganga-kisi mpo na kosalela banzambe ya bikeko. Nakolongola bango kati na bato na bango.
And the person that turneth unto such as have familiar spirits, and unto wizards, to go astray after them, —then will I set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people.
7 Bomibulisa mpe bozala bule, pamba te nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy; for I am the Lord your God.
8 Bobatela bikateli na Ngai mpe bosalela yango. Nazali Yawe oyo akomisi bino basantu.
And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I am the Lord who sanctify you.
9 Moto nyonso oyo akolakela tata na ye to mama na ye mabe, esengeli baboma ye; pamba te alakeli tata na ye to mama na ye mabe: makila na ye ekotangama na moto na ye moko.
For every one whatever that curseth his father or his mother shall be put to death: his father or his mother hath he cursed, his blood shall be upon him.
10 Soki mobali asali ekobo na mwasi ya mobali mosusu, mwasi ya moninga na ye; bango mibale, mwasi na mobali oyo basali ekobo, esengeli koboma bango.
And if there be a man that committeth adultery with a man's wife, [whoever it be] that committeth adultery with his neighbor's wife: then shall the adulterer be put to death, together with the adulteress.
11 Soki mobali asangisi nzoto na mwasi ya tata na ye, asambwisi tata na ye; bango mibale, esengeli koboma bango: makila na bango ekotangama na mito na bango moko.
And a man that lieth with his father's wife, hath uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
12 Soki mobali asangisi nzoto na mwasi ya mwana na ye ya mobali; bango mibale esengeli koboma bango, pamba te basali bosoto: makila na bango ekotangama na mito na bango moko.
And if a man lie with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall be put to death: they have committed an unnatural deed; their blood shall be upon them.
13 Soki mobali asangisi nzoto na moninga na ye mobali ndenge basangisaka nzoto na mwasi, bango mibale basali likambo moko ya mbindo; boye esengeli koboma bango mpe makila na bango ekotangama na mito na bango moko.
And if a man lie with a male, as they lie with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
14 Soki mobali abali mwasi mpe mama ya mwasi, ezali likambo ya mabe koleka. Bango nyonso misato: mobali mpe basi nyonso mibale, esengeli kotumba bango na moto, mpo ete mabe moko te ezala kati na bino.
And if a man take a woman and her mother, it is incest: in fire shall they burn him and them; that there be no incest among you.
15 Soki mobali asangisi nzoto na nyama, esengeli koboma ye elongo na nyama yango.
And a man that lieth with a beast shall be put to death: and the beast also shall ye slay.
16 Ndenge moko mpe soki mwasi asangisi nzoto na nyama, bakoboma ye elongo na nyama yango: makila na bango ekotangama na mito na bango moko.
And if a woman approach unto any beast to lie down thereto, then shalt thou kill the woman, and the beast; they shall be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
17 Soki mobali abali mwasi oyo azali ndeko na ye mpo ete abotami na mama mosusu to tata mosusu, bongo asangisi na ye nzoto, ezali likambo ya soni. Bakolongola bango na miso ya bato na bango. Lokola mobali asambwisi ndeko na ye ya mwasi, akomema ngambo.
And if a man take his sister, the daughter of his father, or the daughter of his mother, and he see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness: it is a disgraceful deed; and they shall be cut off before the eyes of their people: the nakedness of his sister hath he uncovered; his iniquity shall he bear.
18 Soki mobali asangisi nzoto na mwasi oyo azali komona makila na ye ya sanza; bango mibale, esengeli kobengana bango kati na bato na bango, mpo te basangisaki nzoto na tango mwasi azalaki komona makila na ye ya sanza.
And if a man lie with a woman suffering of her separation, and uncover her nakedness, and he lay open her fountain, and she uncover the fountain of her blood: then shall both of them be cut off from the midst of their people.
19 Okosangisa nzoto te na ndeko mwasi ya tata to ya mama na yo, pamba te ekosambwisa bondeko. Soki moto asali yango, bango mibale bakomema ngambo mpo na mabe na bango.
And the nakedness of thy mother's sister, or of thy father's sister shalt thou not uncover; for his near of kin he uncovereth: their iniquity shall they bear.
20 Soki mobali moko asangisi nzoto na mwasi ya ndeko ya tata na ye to mwasi ya ndeko ya mama na ye, asambwisi ndeko ya tata na ye to ya mama na ye; bango mibale bakomema ngambo mpo na mabe na bango mpe bakokufa bazanga bana.
And the man that lieth with his uncle's wife, hath uncovered his uncle's nakedness: their sin shall they bear; childless shall they die.

And if a man do take his brother's wife, it is an abominable act: the nakedness of his brother hath he uncovered; childless shall they remain.
22 Bobatela mpe botosa bikateli mpe mibeko na Ngai nyonso; bosalela yango mpo ete mokili epai wapi nakomema bino mpo na kovanda esanza bino te.
And keep ye all my statutes, and all my ordinances, and do them; that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, may not vomit you forth.
23 Bolanda te bizaleli ya bikolo oyo nakobengana liboso na bino, pamba te basalaki makambo wana nyonso mpe nayinaki bango.
And ye shall not walk in the customs of the nation which I cast out before you; for all these things they committed, and therefore I felt loathing for them.
24 Boye nayebisaki bino: ‹ Bino nde bato bokozwa mokili na bango, mokili oyo ebimisaka miliki mpe mafuta ya nzoyi; napesi bino yango lokola libula. › Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino, oyo alongolaki bino kati na bikolo mpe atiaki bino pembeni.
And I said unto you, Ye shall possess their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey: I am the Eternal your God, who have separated you from the nations.
25 Yango wana bosengeli kosala bokeseni kati na nyama oyo ezali mbindo mpe oyo ezangi mbindo, kati na ndeke oyo ezali mbindo mpe oyo ezali peto. Bosengeli te komikomisa mbindo na nzela ya nyama, ya ndeke to ya nyama nyonso oyo etambolaka na libumu, oyo natiaki pembeni mpo ete bino mpe bomona yango lokola mbindo.
Ye shall therefore make a difference between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean; and ye shall not make your souls abominable by the beast, or by the fowl, or by any manner of thing that creepeth on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.
26 Bozala bule, bato oyo babulisami mpo na Ngai; pamba te Ngai Yawe, nazali Bule; nalongolaki bino kati na bikolo mosusu, natiaki bino pembeni, mpo ete bozala bato na Ngai moko.
And ye shall be holy unto me, for I the Lord am holy; and I have separated you from the nations, that ye should be mine.
27 Mobali to mwasi oyo asololaka na bakufi to oyo azali nganga-kisi kati na bino, esengeli baboma ye: bakobamba bango mabanga mpe makila na bango ekotangama na mito na bango moko. »
And if there be among men or women one that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, they shall be put to death; with stones shall they stone them; their blood shall be upon them.
