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:
The Lord spoke to Moses in the desert of Sinai, the second year after they were come out of the land of Egypt, in the first month, saying:
2 « Tika ete bana ya Isalaele basepela feti ya Pasika na mokolo oyo ekatama.
Let the children of Israel make the phase in its due 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. »
The fourteenth day of this month in the evening, according to all the ceremonies and justifications thereof.
4 Boye, Moyize ayebisaki bana ya Isalaele ete basepelaka feti ya Pasika.
And Moses commanded the children of Israel that they should make the phase.
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.
And they made it in its proper time: the fourteenth day of the month at evening, in mount Sinai. The children of Israel did according to all things that the Lord had commanded Moses.
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
But behold some who were unclean by occasion of the soul of a man, who could not make the phase on that day, coming to Moses and Aaron,
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?
Said to them: We are unclean by occasion of the soul of a man. Why are we kept back that we may not offer in its season the offering to the Lord among the children of Israel?
8 Moyize azongiselaki bango: — Bozela nanu ete naluka koyeba makambo oyo Yawe atindi na tina na bino.
And Moses answered them: Stay that I may consult the Lord what he will ordain concerning you.
9 Boye Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
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: The man that shall be unclean by occasion of one that is dead, or shall be in a journey afar off in your nation, let him make the phase 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 of the month in the evening, they shall eat it with unleavened bread and wild lettuce:
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.
They shall not leave any thing thereof until morning, a nor break a bone thereof, they shall observe all the ceremonies of the phase.
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 if any man is clean, and was not on a journey, and did not make the phase, that soul shall be cut off from among his people, because he offered not sacrifice to the Lord in due season: he shall bear his sin.
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. »
The sojourner also and the stranger if they be among you, shall make the phase to the Lord according to the ceremonies and justifications thereof. The same ordinance shall be with you both for the stranger, and for him that was born 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.
Now on the day that the tabernacle was reared up, a cloud covered it. But from the evening there was over the tabernacle, as it were, the appearance of fire until the morning.
16 Mpe ekobaki kozala kaka ndenge wana: lipata ezalaki kozipa Mongombo; bongo na butu, ezalaki komonana lokola moto.
So it was always: by day the cloud covered it, and by night as it were the appearance of fire.
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 when the cloud that covered the tabernacle was taken up, then the children of Israel marched forward: and in the place where the cloud stood still, there they camped.
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 commandment of the Lord they marched, and at his commandment they pitched the tabernacle. All the days that the cloud abode over the tabernacle, they remained in the same place:
19 Soki lipata ewumeli tango molayi likolo ya Mongombo, bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kotosa mitindo na Yawe mpe bazalaki kokende te.
And if it was so that it continued over it a long time, the children of Israel kept the watches of the Lord, and marched not,
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.
For as many days soever as the cloud stayed over the tabernacle. At the commandment of the Lord they pitched their tents, and at his commandment they took them down.
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.
If the cloud tarried from evening until morning, and immediately at break of day left the tabernacle, they marched forward: and if it departed after a day and a night, they took down their tents.
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.
But if it remained over the tabernacle for two days or a month or a longer time, the children of Israel remained in the same place, and marched not: but immediately as soon as it departed, they removed the camp.
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.
By the word of the Lord they pitched their tents, and by his word they marched: and kept the watches of the Lord according to his commandment by the hand of Moses.
