1 Moyize alobaki na bakambi ya mabota ya Isalaele: « Tala mobeko oyo Yawe asili kopesa:
Moses spoke to the leaders of the tribes of the people of Israel. He said, “This is what Yahweh has commanded.
2 ‹ Soki moto apesi elaka epai na Yawe na nzela ya ndayi to azwi ekateli songolo na nzela ya ndayi, tika ete akokisa elaka na ye, asala kolanda maloba oyo ebimaki na monoko na ye.
When anyone makes a vow to Yahweh, or swears an oath to bind himself with a promise, he must not break his word. He must keep his promise to do everything that comes out of his mouth.
3 Soki elenge moko ya mwasi alapi ndayi epai na Yawe, wana azali nanu na ndako ya tata na ye to azwi ekateli moko na nzela ya seleka,
When a young woman living in her father's house makes a vow to Yahweh and binds herself with a promise,
4 bongo tata na ye ayoki ndayi to ekateli yango mpe alobi na ye eloko moko te, ndayi nyonso oyo alapaki mpe ekateli nyonso oyo azwaki ekotikala se bongo.
if her father hears the vow and the promise by which she has bound herself, and if he says nothing to reverse her, then all her vows will remain in force. Every promise by which she has bound herself will remain in force.
5 Kasi soki tata na ye atelemeli ye tango ayoki yango, ndayi nyonso oyo alapaki mpe ekateli nyonso oyo azwaki ekokoma pamba. Yawe akotangela ye yango te lokola niongo, pamba te tata na ye aboyi yango.
But if her father hears about her vow and her promise, and if he says nothing to her, then all the vows and promises that she took on herself will remain in force.
6 Soki elenge mwasi yango abali sima na kolapa ndayi to sima monoko na ye kobimisa ekateli;
However, if her father hears all the vows she made and her solemn promises with which she has bound herself, and if he overrules her on that same day, then they will not remain in force. Yahweh will forgive her because her father had overruled her.
7 bongo mobali na ye ayoki yango mpe alobi na ye eloko moko te, ndayi oyo alapaki to ekateli oyo azwaki ekotikala se bongo.
If she marries a man while she is under those vows, or if she makes rash promises with which she obligates herself, those obligations will remain in force.
8 Kasi soki mobali na ye atelemeli ye tango ayoki yango, akweyisi nde ndayi oyo ekangaki ye to ekateli oyo azwaki ye moko mpe ebimaki na monoko na ye. Yawe akotangela ye yango lokola niongo te.
But if her husband stops her on the day that he hears about it, then he cancels the vow that she has made, the rash talk of her lips with which she has bound herself. Yahweh will release her.
9 Soki mwasi oyo akufisa mobali to oyo babengana na libala alapi ndayi to azwi ekateli ezala ya ndenge nini, asengeli kokokisa yango.
But as for a widow or a divorced woman, everything by which she has bound herself will remain in force against her.
10 Soki mwasi ya libala alapi ndayi to azwi ekateli na nzela ya seleka;
If a woman made a vow in her husband's house or obligates herself by taking an oath,
11 bongo, mobali na ye ayoki yango mpe alobi na ye eloko moko te mpe apekisi ye te, ndayi oyo alapaki mpe ekateli oyo azwaki ekotikala se bongo.
and her husband hears of it, but he says nothing to her and he does oppose her, then all her vows must stand and the obligations she made must remain in force.
12 Kasi soki mobali na ye akweyisi yango tango ayoki yango, ndayi moko te to ekateli moko te oyo ebimaki na monoko na ye ekotikala bongo. Pamba te mobali na ye akweyisi yango, mpe Yawe akotangela ye yango lokola niongo te.
But if her husband cancels them on the day that he heard about them, then whatever came out of her lips about her vows or promises will not remain in force. Her husband has canceled them. Yahweh will release her.
13 Mobali na ye azali na bokonzi ya kondima to koboya ndayi nyonso oyo alapi to ekateli nyonso oyo asili kozwa na kokila bilei.
Every vow or oath a woman takes that binds her to deny herself something may be confirmed or canceled by her husband.
14 Kasi soki mobali na ye alobi na ye eloko moko te kino na mokolo oyo ekolanda, elakisi ete asili kondima ndayi nyonso to ekateli nyonso oyo mwasi na ye azwaki. Andimi yango, pamba te alobi eloko moko te tango ayokaki yango.
But if he says nothing at all to her day after day, then he confirms all her vows and binding promises that she has made. He has confirmed them because he has said nothing to her at the time that he heard about them.
15 Nzokande, soki akweyisi ndayi to ekateli yango, sima na koyoka yango, ye nde akomema mokumba ya mbeba ya mwasi na ye. › »
If her husband tries to cancel his wife's vow a long time after he has heard about it, then he will be responsible for her sin.”
16 Tala bikateli oyo Yawe apesaki epai na Moyize na tina na boyokani kati na mobali mpe mwasi na ye, kati na tata mpe bilenge basi oyo bazali na ndako na ye.
These are the statutes that Yahweh commanded Moses to announce—statutes for what is between a man and his wife and between a father and his daughter when she is in her youth in her father's family.
