Levitike 22
1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
2 « Talisa Aron mpe bana na ye ya mibali ndenge nini basengeli kozala mosika ya makabo oyo bana ya Isalaele babonzelaka Ngai, mpo ete babebisa te bosantu ya Kombo na Ngai ya bule; Ngai nazali Yawe.
“Speak to Aaron and to his sons, and they are separated from the holy things of the sons of Israel, and they do not defile My holy Name in what they are hallowing to Me; I [am] YHWH.
3 Loba na bango: ‹ Mpo na milongo oyo ekoya na sima mpe kati na bakitani na bino, soki moko azali mbindo mpe apusani pembeni ya makabo ya bule oyo bana ya Isalaele babonzeli Ngai Yawe, esengeli balongola moto wana na miso na Ngai. Nazali Yawe.
Say to them: Throughout your generations, any man who draws near, out of all your seed, to the holy things which the sons of Israel sanctify to YHWH, and his uncleanness [is] on him—indeed, that person has been cut off from before My face; I [am] YHWH.
4 Soki moko ya bakitani ya Aron azali na bokono na poso ya nzoto lokola maba, bokono ya kobima tofina to makila na nzoto ya mibali, akoki te kolia likabo ya bule kino tango akokoma peto. Ndenge moko mpe, akozala mbindo soki asimbi eloko oyo ekomi mbindo mpo ete etuti ebembe to mobali oyo abimisi mayi ya mibali;
Any man of the seed of Aaron, and he is leprous or has discharging—he does not eat of the holy things until he is clean; and he who is coming against any uncleanness of a person, or a man whose seed [from] intercourse goes out from him,
5 soki asimbi nyama oyo etambolaka na libumu mpe ekomisaka mbindo to soki asimbi moto nyonso oyo akoki kokomisa ye mbindo ata na nzela ya ndenge nini.
or a man who comes against any teeming thing which is unclean to him, or against a man who is unclean to him, even any of his uncleanness—
6 Moto oyo akosimba eloko ya ndenge wana akozala mbindo kino na pokwa. Akoki kolia likabo ya bule te kino tango akosukola na mayi.
the person who comes against it has even been unclean until the evening, and does not eat of the holy things, but has bathed his flesh with water,
7 Akokoma peto tango moyi ekolala mpe sima na yango nde akoki kolia makabo ya bule, pamba te ezali bilei na ye.
and the sun has gone in, and he has been clean, and afterward he eats of the holy things, for it [is] his food;
8 Akoki te kolia nyama oyo ekufi yango moko to oyo nyama ya zamba ebomi, noki te akokoma mbindo na nzela na yango. Nazali Yawe.
he does not eat a carcass or torn thing, to become unclean with it; I [am] YHWH.
9 Banganga-Nzambe bakotosa malako na Ngai tango nyonso mpo ete bamema ngambo te mpe bakufa te, noki te bakokufa solo. Ngai nazali Yawe oyo abulisaki bango mpe akomisaka bango basantu mpo na mosala na Ngai.
And they have kept My charge, and bear no sin for it, that they have died for it when they defile it; I [am] YHWH sanctifying them.
10 Moto moko te oyo azali na libota ya Banganga-Nzambe te akoki kolia makabo ya bule: ezala mopaya oyo Nganga-Nzambe abengi to mosali oyo Nganga-Nzambe azwi na mosala.
And no stranger eats of the holy thing; a settler [with] a priest and a hired worker does not eat of the holy thing;
11 Kasi soki Nganga-Nzambe asombi mowumbu na mbongo na ye to soki mowumbu abotami na ndako na ye, mowumbu wana akolia makabo ya bule.
but when a priest buys a person, the purchase of his money, he eats of it, also one born in his house; they eat of his bread.
12 Soki mwana mwasi ya Nganga-Nzambe abali mobali oyo azali Nganga-Nzambe te, akolia te makabo ya bule.
And a priest’s daughter, when she is a strange man’s, she does not eat of the raised-offering of the holy things;
13 Kasi soki mwana mwasi ya Nganga-Nzambe akufisi mobali to akabwani na mobali, bongo amiboteli mwana te mpe azongi kovanda na ndako ya tata na ye lokola tango azalaki elenge, akoki kolia biloko ya ndenge moko na tata na ye; kasi moto oyo azali Nganga-Nzambe te akolia yango te.
but a priest’s daughter, when she is a widow, or cast out, and has no seed, and has turned back to the house of her father, as [in] her youth, she eats of her father’s bread; but no stranger eats of it.
14 Soki moto alie likabo ya bule na kozanga koyeba, asengeli kozongisa epai ya Nganga-Nzambe motuya ya likabo yango mpe akobakisa eteni moko kati na mitano ya motuya na yango.
And when a man eats of a holy thing through ignorance, then he has added its fifth part to it, and has given [it] to the priest, with the holy thing;
15 Banganga-Nzambe basengeli te kobebisa lokumu ya makabo ya bule oyo bana ya Isalaele babonzeli Yawe.
and they do not defile the holy things of the sons of Israel—that which they lift up to YHWH,
16 Soki, wana bazali mbindo, balie yango, bakomemisa bana ya Isalaele ngambo oyo ekosala ete bapesa likabo mpo na kozongisa boyokani, pamba te ezali Ngai Yawe nde nabulisaka bango mpo na mosala na Ngai. › »
or have caused them to bear the iniquity of the guilt-offering in their eating their holy things; for I [am] YHWH, sanctifying them.”
17 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
18 « Yebisa Aron, bana na ye ya mibali mpe bana nyonso ya Isalaele: ‹ Soki moto ya Isalaele to mopaya oyo azali kovanda kati na Isalaele alingi kobonza mbeka ya kotumba epai na Yawe mpo na kokokisa ndayi to likabo oyo apesi kolanda mokano ya motema na ye moko,
“Speak to Aaron, and to his sons, and to all the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: Any man of the house of Israel, or of the sojourners in Israel, who brings his offering near, of all his vows, or of all his willing offerings which they bring near to YHWH for a burnt-offering—
19 asengeli kobonza nyama ya mobali oyo ezangi mbeba kati na bangombe, bameme to bantaba mpo ete Nzambe andima yango.
[you bring near] at your pleasure a perfect one, a male of the herd, of the sheep or of the goats;
20 Asengeli te kobonza nyama oyo ezali na mbeba, pamba te ekondimama te.
nothing in which [is] blemish do you bring near, for it is not for a pleasing thing for you.
21 Ndenge moko mpe, soki moto alingi kobonza epai na Yawe mbeka ya boyokani oyo azwi kati na bangombe, bameme to bantaba, mpo na kokokisa ndayi to likabo oyo apesi kolanda mokano ya motema na ye moko, nyama yango esengeli kozala ezanga mbeba.
And when a man brings a sacrifice of peace-offerings near to YHWH, to complete a special vow, or for a willing-offering, of the herd or of the flock, it is perfect for a pleasing thing: no blemish is in it.
22 Bokobonza te epai na Yawe nyama oyo ekufa liso to ezoka, oyo ezali kotambola tengu-tengu to oyo ezali na bokono na poso ya nzoto, oyo ezali na makwanza to na mapalata; bokoki te kotia nyama ya boye na likolo ya etumbelo lokola likabo bazikisa na moto mpo na Yawe.
Blind, or broken, or maimed, or [having] an oozing sore [[or a defect of the eye]], or itch, or scab—you do not bring these near to YHWH, and you do not make a fire-offering from them on the altar to YHWH.
23 Nzokande bokoki mpe te kobonza mpo na Yawe lokola likabo oyo bopesi kolanda mokano ya mitema na bino moko, ngombe ya mobali to meme oyo ezali na makolo to maboko ekokana te. Mbeka ya boye ekoki kondimama te mpo na kokokisa ndayi.
As for an ox or sheep [that] is deformed or stunted—you make it a willing-offering, but it is not pleasing for a vow.
24 Bokobonza kaka epai na Yawe, nyama oyo mapumbu na yango bafina penza to banika, balongola to bakata; bokoki kosala bongo te kati na mboka na bino moko.
As for bruised, or beaten, or torn, or cut—you do not bring [it] near to YHWH; and in your land you do not do it.
25 Bokoki kondima nyama ya lolenge oyo te na maboko ya bapaya mpo na kobonza yango epai na Yawe lokola bilei ya Nzambe na bino. Ekoki kondimama te, pamba te ezali na mbeba. › »
And you do not bring the bread of your God near from the hand of a son of a stranger, from any of these, for their corruption [is] in them; blemish [is] in them; they are not pleasing for you.”
26 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,
27 « Soki mwana ngombe, mwana meme to mwana ntaba ebotami, ekosala mikolo sambo epai ya mama na yango, bongo na mokolo ya mwambe, ekondimama lokola likabo bazikisa na moto mpo na Yawe.
“When ox, or lamb, or goat is born, and it has been under its mother [for] seven days, then from the eighth day and from now on, it is pleasing for an offering, a fire-offering to YHWH;
28 Bokoki te kokata kingo ya ngombe ya mwasi to ya meme ya mwasi mokolo moko na mwana na yango.
but an ox or sheep—you do not slaughter it and its young one in one day.
29 Tango bokobonza mbeka ya kozongisa matondi epai na Yawe, bobonza yango na lolenge oyo ekosala ete Nzambe andima bino.
And when you sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving to YHWH, you sacrifice at your pleasure;
30 Esengeli bolia yango kaka mokolo wana. Bokotika eloko moko te kino na tongo. Nazali Yawe.
it is eaten on that day—you do not leave of it until morning; I [am] YHWH.
31 Bobatela mitindo na Ngai mpe bosalela yango. Nazali Yawe.
And you have kept my commands and have done them; I [am] YHWH;
32 Bokobebisa te lokumu ya Kombo na Ngai ya bule, mpo ete bana ya Isalaele bayeba solo ete Ngai nazali Mosantu. Ezali Ngai Yawe nde nabulisaki bino.
and you do not defile My holy Name, and I have been hallowed in the midst of the sons of Israel; I [am] YHWH, sanctifying you,
33 Nabimisaki bino na mokili ya Ejipito mpo ete nazala Nzambe na bino. Nazali Yawe. »
who am bringing you up out of the land of Egypt, to become your God; I [am] YHWH.”
