And now [is] to you the commandment this O priests.
2 Soki boyoki te, soki boboyi kozwa mokano ya kopesa Kombo na Ngai lokumu, » elobi Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, « nakotindela bino elakeli mabe mpe nakolakela lipamboli na bino mabe. Solo, nasili kolakela yango mabe, pamba te bozwaki mokano te ya kopesa Kombo na Ngai lokumu.

3 Likolo na bino, nakopamela bakitani na bino, nakobwakela bino basalite ya banyama na bino na bilongi, salite ya banyama oyo bobonzaka na mikolo ya bafeti na bino, mpe bakomema bino nzela moko na basalite yango.
Here I [am] about to rebuke of you the offspring and I will spread dung on faces your [the] dung of festivals your and someone will carry away you with it.

5 « Boyokani na Ngai elongo na ye ezali boyokani ya bomoi mpe ya kimia, mpe nakopesa ye yango mpo ete atosa Ngai. Atosaki Ngai solo mpe azalaki kolenga liboso ya Kombo na Ngai.
Covenant my - it was with him life and well-being and I gave them to him fear and he feared me and because of name my he was in awe he.
6 Monoko na ye ezalaki kobimisa malakisi ya solo; lokuta etikalaki komonana na bibebu na ye te. Azalaki kotambola elongo na Ngai na kimia mpe na alima. Na nzela na ye, bato ebele batikaki kotambola na nzela ya masumu.
Instruction of truth it was in mouth his and unrighteousness not it was found on lips his in peace and in uprightness he walked with me and many [people] he turned away from iniquity.

And also I I have made you despised and lowly to all the people according to [the] mouth of that not you [are] keeping ways my and [you are] lifting up faces in instruction.
10 Boni, biso nyonso tozali bana ya tata moko te? Boni, tokelama na Nzambe moko te? Bongo mpo na nini tozali kobebisa boyokani ya batata na biso na ndenge tozali kosalana mabe biso na biso?
¿ Not [does] a father one [belong] to all of us ¿ not God one did he create us why? do we deal treacherously each with brother his to profane [the] covenant of ancestors our.
11 Bato ya Yuda batamboli na boyengebene te, bakotisi likambo ya nkele kati na Isalaele mpe na Yelusalemi, pamba te bato ya Yuda babebisi bosantu ya Esika ya bule ya Yawe, Esika ya bule oyo Yawe alingaka makasi: babali basi oyo basambelaka nzambe mopaya.

And this second [thing] you do to cover tear[s] [the] altar of Yahweh weeping and groaning from not still turning to the offering and to take pleasure from hand your.
14 Bozali kotuna: « Mpo na nini boye? » Ezali mpo ete Yawe azali Motatoli kati na yo mpe mwasi na yo ya bolenge, kasi yo okosaki ye. Nzokande, azali mwasi oyo okangani na ye na nzela ya boyokani.
And you say concerning what? on for Yahweh he has testified between you and between - [the] wife of youth your whom you you have dealt treacherously with her and she [was] companion your and [the] wife of covenant your.
15 Boni, Yawe akomisaki bango te moto moko? Bazali ya Yawe na mosuni mpe na molimo. Moto yango alukaka nini? Alukaka bana kowuta epai na Nzambe. Boye, bosala keba mpo na bomoi na bino. Tika ete moto moko te akosa mwasi na ye ya bolenge!
