Levitike 26

1 Bokosalaka te banzambe ya bikeko to kotelemisa ekeko to likonzi ya bule mpe bokotiaka te kati na mokili na bino ata libanga moko oyo batia bililingi mpo ete bofukamela yango; pamba te nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino.

I [am] the Lord your God: you shall not make to yourselves gods made with hands, or graven; neither shall you rear up a pillar for yourselves, neither shall you set up a stone [for] an object in your land to worship it: I am the Lord your God.

2 Bokobatelaka mikolo na Ngai ya Saba mpe bokotosaka Esika na Ngai ya bule. Nazali Yawe.

You shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuaries: I am the Lord.

3 Soki botosi mibeko na Ngai, soki botosi mitindo na Ngai mpe bosaleli yango,

If you will walk in my ordinances, and keep my commandments, and do them,

4 nakonokisela bino mvula na tango na yango; mabele mpe banzete ya zamba ekobota bambuma na yango.

then will I give you the rain in its season, and the land shall produce its fruits, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.

5 Mosala ya kobeta ble ekowumela kino na tango ya kobuka, mpe tango ya kobuka ekowumela kino na tango ya kolona; bokolia na kotonda mpe bokovanda na kimia kati na mokili na bino.

And your threshing time shall overtake the vintage, and your vintage shall overtake your seed time; and you shall eat your bread to the full; and you shall dwell safely upon your land, and war shall not go through your land.

6 Nakotia kimia kati na mokili, bokolala pongi, mpe moto moko te akotungisa bino; nakolongola banyama oyo ebomaka kati na mokili mpe bitumba ekozala lisusu te kati na mokili na bino.

And I will give peace in your land, and you shall sleep, and none [shall] make you afraid; and I will destroy the evil beasts out of your land,

7 Bokobengana banguna liboso na bino mpe bakokufa na mopanga liboso na bino.

and you shall pursue your enemies, and they shall fall before you with slaughter.

8 Bato mitano kati na bino bakolanda bato nkama moko, bato nkama moko kati na bino bakolanda bato nkoto zomi; mpe banguna na bino bakokufa liboso na bino na mopanga.

And five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall chase tens of thousands; and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.

9 Nakosalela bino ngolu, nakopesa bino mabota nakokomisa bino ebele mpe nakobatela boyokani na Ngai elongo na bino.

And I will look upon you, and increase you, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.

10 Bambuma ya bilanga na bino ekozala penza ebele mpe ekosala ete bokolia tango molayi bambuma oyo bokozala na yango kati na bibombelo; kino bokokaba mosusu mpo ete bokotisa bambuma ya sika.

And you shall eat that which is old and very old, and bring forth the old to make way for the new.

11 Nakotia Ndako na Ngai kati na bino mpe nakotombokela bino te.

And I will set my tabernacle among you, and my soul shall not abhor you;

12 Nakotambola kati na bino mpo ete nazala Nzambe na bino mpe bino bozala bato na Ngai.

and I will walk among you, and be your God, and you shall be my people.

13 Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino, oyo abimisaki bino na Ejipito mpo ete bozala lisusu bawumbu kuna te; nakataki basinga ya bikangiseli na bino mpe nabimisaki bino lokola balongi.

I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, where you were slaves; and I broke the band of your yoke, and brought you forth openly.

14 Soki boboyi kotosa mpe kosalela mibeko wana nyonso,

But if you will not listen to me, nor obey these my ordinances,

15 soki bobwaki bikateli na Ngai, mpe soki molimo na bino etombokeli malako na Ngai kino koboya kosalela mibeko na Ngai nyonso mpe kokata boyokani na Ngai,

but disobey them, and your soul should loathe my judgments, so that you should not keep all my commands, so as to break my covenant,

16 tala ndenge nakosala bino: nakokotisa kati na bino mobulu, libebi, bokono oyo ekoboma bino miso mpe ekobebisa bomoi na bino; bokolona milona na bino na pamba mpe banguna na bino bakolia yango.

then will I do thus to you: I will even bring upon you perplexity and the itch, and the fever that causes your eyes to waste away, and [disease] that consumes your life; and you shall sow your seeds in vain, and your enemies shall eat them.

17 Nakotombokela bino, mpe bokokweya liboso ya banguna na bino; ba-oyo bayinaka bino bakokonza bino mpe bokokima ata soki moto moko te azali kolanda bino.

And I will set my face against you, and you shall fall before your enemies, and they that hate you shall pursue you; and you shall flee, no one pursuing you.

18 Soki atako bongo boyoki kaka te, nakopesa bino bitumbu mbala sambo mpo na masumu na bino.

And if you still refuse to listen to me, then will I chasten you yet more even seven times for your sins.

19 Nakosilisa makasi na bino, nakokomisa lola makasi lokola ebende mpo na bino, mpe mabele na bino lokola bronze.

And I will break down the haughtiness of your pride; and I will make your heaven iron, and your earth as it were brass.

20 Makasi na bino ekosila na pamba, mpo ete mabele na bino ekobota te mpe banzete ekobota te bambuma na yango.

And your strength shall be in vain; and your land shall not yield its seed, and the tree of your field shall not yield its fruit.

21 Soki botelemeli Ngai mpe boboyi koyoka Ngai, nakopesa bino bitumbu mbala sambo mpo na masumu na bino.

And if after this you should walk perversely, and not be willing to obey me, I will further bring upon you seven plagues according to your sins.

22 Nakotinda kati na mokili na bino banyama ya zamba oyo ekoboma bana na bino, ekolia bibwele na bino mpe ekosilisa koboma bino kino banzela na bino ezanga bato.

And I will send upon you the wild beasts of the land, and they shall devour you, and shall consume your cattle: and I will make you few in number, and your ways shall be desolate.

23 Soki bitumbu yango ekoki kaka te mpo na kozongisa bino na nzela, nzokande bokobi kaka koboya kotosa Ngai,

And if hereupon you are not corrected, but walk perversely towards me,

24 Ngai mpe nakotelemela bino mpe nakopesa bino bitumbu mbala sambo mpo na masumu na bino.

I also will walk with you with a perverse spirit, and I also will strike you seven times for your sins.

25 Nakopesa nzela na mopanga mpo ete eboma bino mpo na kozongisa mabe na mabe likolo ya boyokani oyo bino bobebisi. Tango bokosangana kati na bingumba na bino, nakotindela bino bokono oyo ebomaka, mpe nakokaba bino na maboko ya monguna.

And I will bring upon you a sword avenging the cause of [my] covenant, and you shall flee for refuge to your cities; and I will send out death against you, and you shall be delivered into the hands of your enemies.

26 Tango nakopimela bino bilei, basi zomi bakotumba mapa na fulu moko mpe bakobanda kopesa bino mapa yango na kilo: bokolia kasi bokotonda te.

When I afflict you with famine of bread, then ten women shall bake your loaves in one oven, and they shall render your loaves by weight; and you shall eat, and not be satisfied.

27 Soki, atako bongo, boyoki kaka te mpe bokobi kaka kotelemela Ngai,

And if hereupon you will not obey me, but walk perversely towards me,

28 Ngai mpe nakotelemela bino lisusu na kanda makasi mpe nakopesa bino bitumbu mbala sambo mpo na masumu na bino.

then will I walk with you with a froward mind, and I will chasten you sevenfold according to your sins.

29 Bokolia bana na bino ya mibali mpe ya basi.

And you shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall you eat.

30 Nakokweyisa bisambelo na bino ya likolo ya bangomba, nakokweyisa bitumbelo na bino ya malasi, nakotia bibembe na bino likolo ya bibembe ya banzambe na bino ya bikeko mpe nakotombokela bino.

And I will render your pillars desolate, and will utterly destroy your wooden [images] made with hands; and I will lay your carcases on the carcases of your idols, and my soul shall loathe you.

31 Nakokomisa bingumba na bino bisobe, nakobebisa bisika na bino ya bule mpe nakosepela te lisusu na solo kitoko ya malasi na bino.

And I will lay your cities waste, and I will make your sanctuaries desolate, and I will not smell the savor of your sacrifices.

32 Ngai moko nakokotisa mobulu kati na mokili, mpe ezala banguna na bino oyo bakoya kovanda kati na yango bakokamwa.

And I will lay your land desolate, and your enemies who dwell in it shall wonder at it.

33 Nakopanza bino kati na bikolo ya bapaya mpe nakobengana bino na mopanga; mokili na bino ekozanga bato mpe bingumba na bino ekokawuka.

And I will scatter you among the nations, and the sword shall come upon you and consume you; and your land shall be desolate, and your cities shall be desolate.

34 Boye, mokili na bino ekosepela Saba na yango mibu nyonso oyo ekozanga bato mpe oyo bokokima epai ya banguna na bino; ekozwa bopemi mpe ekosepela Saba na yango.

Then the land shall enjoy its sabbaths all the days of its desolation.

35 Na tango nyonso oyo ekozanga bato, ekozwa bopemi oyo ezalaki na yango na tango ya Saba na bino tango bozalaki kovanda kati na yango.

And you shall be in the land of your enemies; then the land shall keep its sabbaths, and the land shall enjoy its sabbaths all the days of its desolation: it shall keep sabbaths which it kept not among your sabbaths, when you lived in it.

36 Bongo na mikili ya banguna na bino, bato oyo bakotikala na bomoi kati na bino, nakolembisa bango nzoto: bakokima ata makelele ya lokasa oyo mopepe eningisi, bakokima lokola nde bazali kokima liboso ya mopanga mpe bakobambana na mabele ata soki moto moko te azali kolanda bango.

And to those who are left of you I will bring bondage into their heart in the land of their enemies; and the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them, and they shall flee as fleeing from war, and shall fall when none pursues them.

37 Bakokweya moko likolo ya moninga lokola nde bazali kokima mopanga ata soki moto moko te azali kolanda bango. Bokolonga te liboso ya banguna na bino.

And brother shall disregard brother as in war, when none pursues; and you shall not be able to withstand your enemies.

38 Bokokufa kati na bikolo ya bapaya mpe mokili ya banguna na bino ekolia bino.

And you shall perish among the Gentiles, and the land of your enemies shall devour you.

39 Kati na mikili ya banguna na bino, bato oyo bakotikala na bomoi kati na bino bakokufa kuna mpo na masumu na bango moko mpe mpo na masumu ya batata na bango.

And those who are left of you shall perish, because of their sins, and because of the sins of their fathers: in the land of their enemies shall they consume away.

40 Nzokande, soki bakotubela masumu na bango mpe masumu ya batata na bango, misala na bango ya mabe mpe botomboki na bango liboso na Ngai,

And they shall confess their sins, and the sins of their fathers, that they have transgressed and neglected me, and that they have walked perversely before me,

41 oyo mpo na yango, Ngai natelemelaki bango mpe namemaki bango na mokili ya banguna na bango, wana mitema na bango oyo ekatama ngenga te ekomikitisa mpe bakozwa lifuti ya mabunga na bango,

and I walked with them with a perverse mind; and I will destroy them in the land of their enemies: then shall their uncircumcised heart be ashamed, and then shall they acquiesce in [the punishment of] their sins.

42 nakokanisa boyokani na Ngai, oyo nasalaki elongo na Jakobi, na Izaki mpe na Abrayami; mpe nakokanisa mokili.

And I will remember the covenant of Jacob, and the covenant of Isaac, and the covenant of Abraam will I remember.

43 Boye, wana bakotika mokili mpe wana mokili yango ekosepela Saba na yango, na mikolo nyonso oyo yango ekozala ezanga bato, na tango yango, bakozwa lifuti ya mabe na bango mpo ete batosaki mibeko na Ngai te mpe batombokelaki bikateli na Ngai.

And I will remember the land, and the land shall be left of them; then the land shall enjoy her sabbaths, when it is deserted through them: and they shall accept [the punishment of] their iniquities, because they neglected my judgments, and in their soul loathed my ordinances.

44 Nzokande, ezala tango bakozala kati na mokili ya banguna na bango, nakosundola bango te, nakotombokela bango te kino kobebisa bango mpe kokata boyokani na Ngai elongo na bango; pamba te Ngai nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bango.

And yet not even thus, while they were in the land of their enemies, did I overlook them, nor did I loathe them so as to consume them, to break my covenant made with them; for I am the Lord their God.

45 Nakokanisa boyokani oyo nasalaki elongo na batata na bango, oyo Ngai nabimisaki na Ejipito, na miso ya bikolo mosusu, mpo ete nazala Nzambe na bango. Nazali Yawe. › »

And I will remember their former covenant, when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage before the nation, to be their God; I am the Lord.

46 Oyo nde bikateli, mitindo mpe mibeko oyo Yawe atiaki kati ya Ye mpe bana ya Isalaele, na ngomba Sinai, na nzela ya Moyize.

These are my judgments and my ordinances, and the law which the Lord gave between himself and the children of Israel, in the mount Sina, by the hand of Moses.
