Mitango 15

1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:

The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 « Loba na bana ya Isalaele mpe yebisa bango: ‹ Sima na bino kokota na mokili oyo nakopesa bino, mokili epai wapi bokovanda,

“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: When you will have entered into the land of your habitation, which I will give you,

3 bokobonzela Yawe likabo bazikisa na moto, oyo solo kitoko na yango ekosepelisa Yawe; ekowuta kati na bangombe, bameme mpe bantaba na bino. Tika ete ezala mbeka ya kotumba to mbeka mpo na kokokisa ndayi, mbeka oyo bokobonza wuta na mokano ya mitema na bino to mpe mbeka oyo bokobonza na bafeti na bino ya bule.

and you make an offering to the Lord, as a holocaust or as a victim, paying your vows, or as a voluntary offering of gifts, or in your solemnities, burning a sweet odor to the Lord, whether from the oxen or from the sheep:

4 Boye, moto oyo akomema mbeka na ye asengeli kobonzela Yawe likabo ya gato, bakilo misato ya farine oyo basangisa na balitele mibale ya mafuta ya olive.

whoever immolates the victim shall offer a sacrifice of fine wheat flour, the tenth part of an ephah, sprinkled with oil, which shall have the measure of the fourth part of a hin,

5 Mpo na bana meme moko na moko ya mbeka ya kotumba, bosengeli kobakisa balitele ya vino lokola likabo ya masanga.

and he shall give the same measure of wine, poured out as libations, whether as a holocaust or as a victim.

6 Mpo na meme ya mobali, bokobongisa likabo ya gato, bakilo motoba ya farine oyo basangisa na balitele mibale na ndambo ya mafuta ya olive,

With each lamb and each ram, there shall be a sacrifice of fine wheat flour, of two tenths, which shall be sprinkled with one third part of a hin of oil.

7 mpe balitele mibale na ndambo ya vino lokola likabo ya masanga. Bokobonza yango lokola malasi ya solo kitoko liboso ya Yawe.

And he shall offer the same measure, one third part of wine, for the libation, as a sweet odor to the Lord.

8 Soki bobongisi mwana ngombe ya mobali lokola mbeka ya kotumba to mbeka mpo na kokisa ndayi to mbeka ya boyokani mpo na Yawe;

Yet truly, when you will offer, from the oxen, a holocaust or a victim, in order to fulfill your vow or for peace-offering victims,

9 bokomema elongo na mwana ngombe, likabo ya gato, bakilo libwa ya farine basangisa na balitele minei ya mafuta.

you shall give, for each ox, three tenths of fine wheat flour, sprinkled with oil, which has the measure of one half of one hin,

10 Bokomema lisusu balitele minei ya vino lokola likabo ya masanga: ezali likabo bazikisa na moto, oyo solo kitoko na yango ekosepelisa Yawe.

and the wine, poured out as libations, shall be of the same measure, as an oblation of most sweet odor to the Lord.

11 Ezali ndenge wana nde esengeli kobongisa mbeka nyonso ya ngombe ya mobali to ya meme ya mobali to ya bana meme to mpe ya mwana ntaba.

So shall you do

12 Bokosala bongo mpo na nyama moko na moko, ezala soki motango na yango ezali boni.

for each ox, and ram, and lamb, and young goat.

13 Mwana mboka asengeli kosala bongo mpo na makabo wana tango akomema likabo bazikisa na moto, oyo solo kitoko na yango esepelisaka Yawe.

Both natives and sojourners

14 Pamba te, na milongo oyo ekoya, mopaya nyonso to moto mosusu oyo azali kowumela kati na bino, oyo akobonza likabo bazikisa na moto, oyo solo kitoko na yango ekosepelisa Yawe, asengeli kosala ndenge kaka bino bozali kosala.

shall offer sacrifices by the same rituals.

15 Mibeko ya kosalela ekozala ndenge moko mpo na lisanga mobimba, ezala bino to mopaya oyo akowumela kati na bino. Yango ekozala mobeko ya libela ezala mpo na milongo oyo ekoya. Bino na mopaya bozali ndenge moko liboso ya Yawe.

There shall be one precept and one judgment, as much for yourselves as for newcomers to the land.”

16 Ezala bino to mopaya oyo azali kati na bino, bokosalela kaka mibeko mpe mitindo moko. › »

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

17 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:

“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them:

18 « Loba na bana ya Isalaele mpe yebisa bango: ‹ Tango bokokota na mokili oyo nazali komema bino

When you will arrive in the land which I will give to you,

19 mpe bokolia bilei ya mokili yango, bobonza ndambo lokola likabo epai na Yawe.

and when you will eat from the bread of that region, you shall separate the first-fruits to the Lord

20 Bobonza gato oyo ewuti na farine ya liboso oyo bokonika, mpe bobonza yango lokola likabo oyo ewuti na mbuma ya liboso oyo elanga ya ble eboti.

from the foods that you eat. Just as you separate the first-fruits of your threshing floors,

21 Boye, bokobonzaka epai na Yawe bambuma ya liboso ya milona na bino: ekozala bongo mpo na milongo oyo ekoya na sima.

so also shall you give the first-fruits of your cooked grains to the Lord.

22 Soki esalemi ete bobuki na nko te moko kati na mibeko oyo Ngai Yawe napesaki na nzela ya Moyize,

And if, through ignorance, you neglect any of these things, which the Lord has spoken to Moses,

23 moko kati na mitindo oyo Ngai Yawe napesaki bino na nzela ya Moyize, kobanda na mokolo oyo napesaki bino yango, mpe nazali kokoba kopesa yango kati na milongo oyo ekoya;

and which he has commanded through him for you, from the day that he began to command and thereafter,

24 mpe soki mbeba yango esalemi na nko te mpe lisanga esosoli yango te, lisanga mobimba ekobonza mwana ngombe ya mobali lokola mbeka ya kotumba oyo solo kitoko na yango ekosepelisa Yawe, elongo na likabo ya gato mpe likabo ya masanga ndenge ekatama, mpe ntaba ya mobali lokola mbeka mpo na masumu.

and if the multitude will have forgotten to do it, then they shall offer a calf from the herd, a holocaust as a most sweet odor to the Lord, and its sacrifice and libations, just as the ceremonies ask, and a he-goat for sin.

25 Nganga-Nzambe akosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu mpo na lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele, mpe bakolimbisama; pamba te basalaki mabe na nko te mpe bamemelaki Yawe mpo na mabe na bango likabo bazikisa na moto mpe mbeka mpo na masumu.

And the priest shall pray for the entire multitude of the sons of Israel, and it shall be forgiven them, because they did not sin willfully. Nevertheless, they shall offer incense to the Lord for themselves, and for sin, as well as for their error.

26 Lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele elongo na bapaya oyo bazali kowumela kati na bango bakozwa bolimbisi, pamba te bato nyonso bamikotisaki na mbeba oyo esalemaki na nko te.

And it shall be forgiven all the people of the sons of Israel, as well as the newcomers who sojourn among them, for it is the culpability of all the people through neglect.

27 Kasi soki esalemi ete moto moko nde asali lisumu na nko te, asengeli komema mwana ntaba ya mwasi ya mobu moko lokola mbeka mpo na masumu.

But if one soul will have sinned by not knowing, he shall offer a one-year-old she-goat for his sin.

28 Nganga-Nzambe akosala mosala ya bolimbisi masumu liboso ya Yawe mpo na moto oyo asalaki masumu na nko te. Mpe tango mosala ya bolimbisi masumu ekosalema mpo na ye, akolimbisama solo.

And the priest shall pray for him, because he sinned unknowingly before the Lord. And he shall obtain pardon for him, and it will be forgiven him.

29 Bosengeli kosalela mobeko se moko, ezala mpo na mwana mboka kati na bana ya Isalaele to mpo na mopaya oyo azali kowumela kati na bino, oyo asali lisumu na nko te.

One law shall be for all who sin by ignorance, as much for natives as for newcomers.

30 Kasi moto nyonso oyo akosala lisumu na nko, azala mwana mboka to mopaya, atioli nde Yawe; mpe moto ya lolenge oyo basengeli kolongola ye kati ya bato na ye.

Yet truly, the soul who commits any of these acts through arrogance, whether he is a citizen or a sojourner, because he has rebelled against the Lord, shall perish from among his people.

31 Pamba te atioli Liloba na Yawe mpe abuki mitindo na ye. Solo, moto ya lolenge oyo basengeli kolongola ye kati na bato na ye mpe akomema ngambo ya mabe na ye. › »

For he has despised the word of the Lord, and he has nullified his precept. For this reason, he shall be destroyed, and he shall bear his iniquity.”

32 Wana bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kati na esobe, bamonaki moto moko kolokota bakoni na mokolo ya Saba.

And it happened that, when the sons of Israel were in the wilderness, and they had found a man collecting wood on the day of the Sabbath,

33 Bato oyo bamonaki ye kolokota bakoni bamemaki ye epai ya Moyize, Aron mpe lisanga mobimba.

they brought him to Moses and Aaron, and to the whole multitude.

34 Batiaki ye na esika oyo bazalaki kokengela ye malamu, pamba te bayebaki nanu malamu-malamu te nini esengelaki kosala mpo na ye.

And they enclosed him in a prison, not knowing what they should do with him.

35 Bongo Yawe alobaki na Moyize: « Moto oyo asengeli kokufa. Bato nyonso ya lisanga basengeli komema ye libanda ya molako mpe koboma ye na mabanga. »

And the Lord said to Moses, “Let that man be put to death; let the entire crowd crush him with stones, outside the camp.”

36 Bongo lisanga mobimba ememaki ye libanda ya molako mpe babambaki ye mabanga kino akufaki ndenge Yawe atindaki yango epai ya Moyize.

And when they had led him out, they overwhelmed him with stones, and he died, just as the Lord had instructed.

37 Yawe alobaki na Moyize:

The Lord also said to Moses:

38 « Loba na bana ya Isalaele mpe yebisa bango: ‹ Na milongo oyo ekoya, bosengeli kotia singa ya langi ya ble na basonge ya bilamba na bino; esengeli kokangisa kitendi moko na moko na singa ya langi ya ble.

“Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall tell them to make for themselves hems at the corners of their cloaks, placing in them ribbons of hyacinth,

39 Tango nyonso bokotala bitendi yango, bokobanda kokanisa mitindo nyonso ya Yawe, mpo ete botosa yango mpe botika kolanda baposa ya mitema na bino mpe ya miso na bino, oyo ekoki kotindika bino na kobungisa boyengebene.

so that, when they see these, they may remember all the commandments of the Lord, and they may not follow their own thoughts and eyes, fornicating in various ways,

40 Boye, bokokanisa mibeko na Ngai nyonso, bokotosa yango mpe bokozala bule mpo na Nzambe na bino.

but instead, they, being more mindful of the precepts of the Lord, may do them and may be holy to their God.

41 Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino; nabimisaki bino na Ejipito mpo ete nazala Nzambe na bino. Solo, nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino. › »

I am the Lord your God, who led you away from the land of Egypt, so that I may be your God.”
