1 Yawe alobaki na Moyize kati na esobe ya Sinai, na sanza ya liboso ya mobu oyo ya mibale sima na kobima na bango na Ejipito. Alobaki na ye:
And the Lord said to Moses, in the waste land of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt,
2 « Tika ete bana ya Isalaele basepela feti ya Pasika na mokolo oyo ekatama.
Let the children of Israel keep the Passover at its regular time.
3 Bosala feti yango na tango oyo ekatama, na pokwa ya mokolo ya zomi na minei, ya sanza oyo, kolanda mibeko mpe malako na yango nyonso. »
In the fourteenth day of this month, at evening, you are to keep it at the regular time, and in the way ordered in the law.
4 Boye, Moyize ayebisaki bana ya Isalaele ete basepelaka feti ya Pasika.
And Moses gave orders to the children of Israel to keep the Passover.
5 Basepelaki Pasika kati na esobe ya Sinai, na pokwa ya mokolo ya zomi na minei, ya sanza ya liboso. Bana ya Isalaele basalaki makambo nyonso ndenge kaka Yawe apesaki mitindo na nzela ya Moyize.
So they kept the Passover in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the waste land of Sinai: as the Lord gave orders to Moses, so the children of Israel did.
6 Kasi bato mosusu kati na bango basepelaki Pasika te na mokolo wana, pamba te bazalaki mbindo mpo ete basimbaki ebembe. Boye, kaka na mokolo wana, bakendeki komona Moyize na Aron
And there were certain men who were unclean because of a dead body, so that they were not able to keep the Passover on that day; and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day:
7 mpe bayebisaki Moyize: — Tokomi mbindo mpo ete tosimbaki ebembe. Boye, mpo na nini te biso mpe tomema likabo na biso epai na Yawe elongo na bato mosusu ya Isalaele?
And these men said to him, We have been made unclean by the dead body of a man; why may we not make the offering of the Lord at the regular time among the children of Israel?
8 Moyize azongiselaki bango: — Bozela nanu ete naluka koyeba makambo oyo Yawe atindi na tina na bino.
And Moses said to them, Do nothing till the Lord gives me directions about you.
9 Boye Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
And the Lord said to Moses,
10 — Yebisa bana ya Isalaele: « Soki moko kati na bino to kati na bakitani na bino akomi mbindo mpo ete asimbi ebembe na mokolo wana, ezala soki azali mosika na mobembo, akoki kosepela feti ya Pasika mpo na lokumu na Yawe.
Say to the children of Israel, If any one of you or of your families is unclean because of a dead body, or is on a journey far away, still he is to keep the Passover to the Lord:
11 Basengeli kosepela yango na pokwa ya mokolo ya zomi na minei ya sanza ya mibale; bakolia mwana meme elongo na mapa ezanga levire mpe matiti ya bololo.
In the second month, on the fourteenth day, in the evening, they are to keep it, taking it with unleavened bread and bitter-tasting plants;
12 Bakotika eloko moko te kino na tongo mpe bakobuka mokuwa ata moko te. Basengeli kolanda mibeko na yango nyonso na tango ya kosepela feti ya Pasika.
Nothing of it is to be kept till the morning, and no bone of it is to be broken: they are to keep it by the rules of the Passover.
13 Kasi soki moto moko asepeli feti ya Pasika te, wana azali mbindo te mpe asali mobembo te, basengeli kolongola ye kati na libota na ye, pamba te abonzeli Yawe likabo te na tango oyo ekatama; akomema mikumba ya masumu na ye.
But the man who, not being unclean or on a journey, does not keep the Passover, will be cut off from his people: because he did not make the offering of the Lord at the regular time, his sin will be on him.
14 Soki mpe mopaya oyo avandi kati na bino alingi kosepela Pasika ya Yawe, asengeli kosala kaka bongo, asengeli kolanda mibeko mpe malako na yango. Ezala mpo na bapaya to mpo na bana mboka, bosengeli kozala na mibeko ya losambo ya ndenge moko. »
And if a man from another country is among you and has a desire to keep the Passover to the Lord, let him do as is ordered in the law of the Passover: there is to be the same rule for the man from another nation and for him who had his birth in the land.
15 Na mokolo oyo batelemisaki Mongombo, lipata ezipaki Ndako ya kapo ya Litatoli. Wuta na pokwa kino na tongo, lipata oyo ezalaki likolo ya Mongombo ezalaki komonana lokola moto.
And on the day when the House was put up, the cloud came down on it, on the Tent of witness; and in the evening there was a light like fire over the House till the morning.
16 Mpe ekobaki kozala kaka ndenge wana: lipata ezalaki kozipa Mongombo; bongo na butu, ezalaki komonana lokola moto.
And so it was at all times: it was covered by the cloud, and by a light as of fire by night.
17 Tango nyonso lipata ezalaki kolongwa na likolo ya Ndako ya kapo, bana ya Isalaele mpe bazalaki kokende; mpe esika nyonso oyo lipata ezalaki kotelema, esika wana nde bazalaki mpe kosala molako na bango.
And whenever the cloud was taken up from over the House, then the children of Israel went journeying on; and in the place where the cloud came to rest, there the children of Israel put up their tents.
18 Ezalaki na mitindo na Yawe kaka nde bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kotambola mpe kosala molako na bango. Tango nyonso lipata ezalaki kowumela na likolo ya Mongombo, bango mpe bazalaki kowumela na molako.
At the order of the Lord the children of Israel went forward, and at the order of the Lord they put up their tents: as long as the cloud was resting on the House, they did not go away from that place.
19 Soki lipata ewumeli tango molayi likolo ya Mongombo, bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kotosa mitindo na Yawe mpe bazalaki kokende te.
When the cloud was resting on the House for a long time the children of Israel, waiting for the order of the Lord, did not go on.
20 Soki mpe lipata esali kaka mwa ndambo ya mikolo na likolo ya Mongombo, na mitindo na Yawe, bazalaki kowumela na molako na bango; mpe bazalaki kokende soki kaka Yawe apesi mitindo.
Sometimes the cloud was resting on the House for two or three days; then, by the order of the Lord, they kept their tents in that place, and when the Lord gave the order they went on.
21 Na mbala mosusu, lipata ezalaki kowumela butu moko kaka, wuta na pokwa kino na tongo; bongo tango ezalaki kolongwa na tongo na esika moko mpo na kokende na esika mosusu, bango mpe bazalaki kokende. To mpe ezalaki kosala mokolo moko mpe butu moko; mpe soki elongwe, bango mpe bazalaki kokende.
And sometimes the cloud was there only from evening to morning; and when the cloud was taken up in the morning they went on their journey again: or if it was resting there by day and by night, whenever the cloud was taken up they went forward.
22 Soki lipata etelemi na likolo ya Mongombo mikolo mibale to sanza moko to mpe mobu moko, bana ya Isalaele mpe bazalaki kaka kowumela na molako, bazalaki kokende te; kasi soki elongwe, bango mpe bazalaki kokende.
Or if the cloud came to rest on the House for two days or a month or a year without moving, the children of Israel went on waiting there and did not go on; but whenever it was taken up they went forward on their journey.
23 Ezalaki kaka na mitindo na Yawe nde bazalaki kowumela na molako to kokende. Boye, bazalaki kosala mosala ya Yawe kolanda mitindo oyo Yawe apesaki na nzela ya Moyize.
At the word of the Lord they put up their tents, and at the word of the Lord they went forward on their journey: they kept the orders of the Lord as he gave them by Moses.
