< Mitango 9 >
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 spoke unto Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the second year after their coming 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.
That the children of Israel shall prepare the passover-lamb at its appointed season.
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. »
On the fourteenth day of this month, toward evening, shall ye prepare it at its appointed season: according to all its ordinances, and according to all its prescribed rules, shall ye prepare it.
4 Boye, Moyize ayebisaki bana ya Isalaele ete basepelaka feti ya Pasika.
And Moses spoke unto the children of Israel, that they should prepare the passover-lamb.
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 prepared the passover-lamb on the fourteenth day of the first month toward evening in the wilderness of Sinai: according to all that the Lord had commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel.
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 there were certain men, who had been defiled by the dead body of a man, and they could not prepare the passover-lamb 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 unto him, We are defiled by the dead body of a man: wherefore shall we be kept back, so as not to offer the sacrifice of the Lord at its appointed season in the midst of the [other] children of Israel?
8 Moyize azongiselaki bango: — Bozela nanu ete naluka koyeba makambo oyo Yawe atindi na tina na bino.
And Moses said unto them, Wait ye, and I will hear what the Lord will command concerning you.
9 Boye Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
And the Lord spoke unto 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.
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any man whatever should be unclean by reason of a dead body, or be on a distant journey, among you or your posterity: yet shall he prepare the passover-lamb unto 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 toward evening shall they prepare it, with unleavened bread and bitter herbs shall they eat it.
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 leave none of it until morning, and no bone shall they break on it: according to the whole ordinance of the passover-lamb shall they prepare it.
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 that is clean, and is not on a journey, and forbeareth to prepare the passover-lamb, even that same soul shall be cut off from his people; because the offering of the Lord hath he not brought at its appointed season, his sin shall that man bear.
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 stranger sojourn among you, and will prepare the passover-lamb unto the Lord: according to the ordinance of the passover-lamb, and according to its prescribed rule, so shall he prepare it; one statute shall be for you, both for the stranger, and for the native 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.
And on the day that the tabernacle was reared up the cloud covered the tabernacle of the tent of the testimony: and in the evening there was upon the tabernacle as it were the appearance of fire, until morning.
16 Mpe ekobaki kozala kaka ndenge wana: lipata ezalaki kozipa Mongombo; bongo na butu, ezalaki komonana lokola moto.
So it used to be always: the cloud covered it [by day], and the appearance 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 as the cloud was taken up from the tabernacle, then after that did the children of Israel journey forward: and in the place where the cloud halted, there did the children of Israel encamp.
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 did the children of Israel journey forward, and at the order of the Lord they encamped: all the days that the cloud abode upon the tabernacle did they remain in camp.
19 Soki lipata ewumeli tango molayi likolo ya Mongombo, bana ya Isalaele bazalaki kotosa mitindo na Yawe mpe bazalaki kokende te.
And when the cloud tarried upon the tabernacle many days, then did the children of Israel keep the charge of the Lord, and journeyed not forward.
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.
And at times it was, that the cloud remained but a few days upon the tabernacle; at the order of the Lord they abode in camp, and at the order of the Lord they journeyed forward.
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 at times it was, that the cloud remained from evening until morning; and when the cloud was taken up in the morning, they journeyed forward; or a day and a night, and when the cloud was taken up, they journeyed 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 two days, or a month, or a year; so long as the cloud tarried upon the tabernacle, to remain thereon, did the children of Israel remain encamped, and journeyed not forward; but when it was taken up, they journeyed forward.
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 order of the Lord they remained in camp, and at the order of the Lord they journeyed forward: the charge of the Lord they kept, at the order of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
