Exodus 21
1 And these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them.
Yawe alobaki na Moyize: — Tala mibeko oyo okoyebisa bana ya Isalaele:
2 If thou buy a Hebrew bondman, six years shall he serve; and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
« Soki bosombi Mo-Ebre moko lokola mowumbu, akosalela bino mibu motoba; na mobu ya sambo, akozwa bonsomi mpe akofuta eloko moko te.
3 If he came in alone, he shall go out alone: if he had a wife, then his wife shall go out with him.
Soki azalaki monzemba tango ayaki, asengeli kokende ye moko; kasi soki azalaki na mwasi tango ayaki, mwasi na ye asengeli kokende na ye elongo.
4 If his master have given him a wife, and she have borne him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out alone.
Soki nkolo na ye apesaki ye mwasi mpe mwasi yango abotelaki ye bana mibali to bana basi, mwasi mpe bana bakozala ya nkolo na ye; mobali akokende ye moko.
5 But if the bondman shall say distinctly, I love my master, my wife, and my children, I will not go free;
Kasi soki mowumbu alobi: ‹ Nalingaka nkolo na ngai, mwasi na ngai mpe bana na ngai, nalingi te kozwa bonsomi, ›
6 then his master shall bring him before the judges, and shall bring him to the door, or to the door-post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl; and he shall be his bondman for ever.
wana nkolo na ye asengeli komema ye liboso ya basambisi; akomema ye na ezipelo ya ekuke to na mabaya oyo esimbaka ekuke mpe akotobola ye litoyi na motonga; mpe mowumbu akosalela nkolo yango mpo na libela.
7 And if a man shall sell his daughter as a handmaid, she shall not go out as the bondmen go out.
Soki moto ateki mwana na ye ya mwasi lokola mwasi mowumbu, mwana yango akozwa bonsomi te ndenge bawumbu bazwaka yango.
8 If she is unacceptable in the eyes of her master, who had taken her for himself, then shall he let her be ransomed: to sell her unto a foreign people he hath no power, after having dealt unfaithfully with her.
Soki mwana mwasi asepelisi te nkolo oyo aponaki ye mpo ete azala mowumbu na ye, nkolo yango akotika ete mwana mwasi asikolama; azali na ndingisa te ya koteka ye epai ya bapaya. Kasi soki ateki ye, wana asambwisi ye.
9 And if he have appointed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the law of daughters.
Soki aponaki mwana mwasi yango mpo ete azala mwasi ya mwana na ye ya mobali, asengeli kokokisa makambo oyo mibeko esengaka mpo na kobala mwasi.
10 If he take himself another, her food, her clothing, and her conjugal rights he shall not diminish.
Soki abali mwasi mosusu, akolongola eloko te na oyo etali kolia, kolata mpe oyo basalelaka mwasi ya libala.
11 And if he do not these three things unto her, then shall she go out free without money.
Soki apimeli ye ata eloko moko kati na biloko oyo misato, wana mwasi oyo akoki kokende na bonsomi mpe akofuta eloko moko te.
12 He that striketh a man, so that he die, shall certainly be put to death.
Moto oyo akobeta moninga na ye kino koboma ye, basengeli koboma ye.
13 But if he have not lain in wait, and God have delivered [him] into his hand, I will appoint thee a place to which he shall flee.
Nzokande, soki azalaki na likanisi ya koboma te, kasi Nzambe atiki ete yango esalema na nzela ya maboko na ye, moto wana akokima na esika oyo Ngai Yawe nakopona.
14 But if a man act wantonly toward his neighbour, and slay him with guile, thou shalt take him from mine altar, that he may die.
Kasi soki moto akaneli moninga na ye mpe aluki koboma ye na mayele mabe, okomema ye mosika ya etumbelo na Ngai mpo na koboma ye.
15 And he that striketh his father, or his mother, shall certainly be put to death.
Moto oyo akobeta tata to mama na ye, asengeli kozwa etumbu ya kufa.
16 And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall certainly be put to death.
Moto oyo akokanga moto mosusu na makasi mpo na kokima na ye, ezala soki ateki moto yango to bakangi ye na moto yango na maboko, asengeli kozwa etumbu ya kufa.
17 And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall certainly be put to death.
Moto oyo akolakela tata to mama na ye mabe, asengeli kozwa etumbu ya kufa.
18 And if men dispute, and one strike the other with a stone, or with the fist, and he die not, but take to [his] bed,
Soki bato baswani, bongo moko abeti moninga likofi to libanga; mpe moto oyo babeti likofi to libanga akufi te kasi abeli makasi;
19 — if he rise, and walk abroad upon his staff, then shall he that struck [him] be guiltless; only he shall pay [for] the loss of his time, and shall cause [him] to be thoroughly healed.
soki moto oyo babeti atelemi mpe atamboli na nzete kino na libanda, bakokatela moto oyo abetaki ye etumbu te, kasi akofuta kaka mikolo oyo moto yango azalaki kosala te mpe akosalisa ye kino akobika.
20 And if a man strike his bondman or his handmaid with a staff, and he die under his hand, he shall certainly be avenged.
Soki moto abeti mowumbu na ye ya mobali to mwasi mowumbu na ye, bongo mowumbu yango akufi na mbala moko, moto wana asengeli kozwa etumbu.
21 Only, if he continue [to live] a day or two days, he shall not be avenged; for he is his money.
Kasi soki mowumbu yango awumeli lisusu na bomoi mokolo moko to mibale, wana nkolo na ye akozwa etumbu te, pamba te asombaki ye na mbongo.
22 And if men strive together, and strike a woman with child, so that she be delivered, and no mischief happen, he shall in any case be fined, according as the woman's husband shall impose on him, and shall give it as the judges estimate.
Soki mibali, wana bazali kobunda, batutani na mwasi ya zemi, bongo mwasi yango aboti mwana matsombe mpe likama mosusu emonani te, wana basengeli kofuta lomande ndenge mobali ya mwasi yango akokata kolanda mokano ya basambisi.
23 But if mischief happen, then thou shalt give life for life,
Kasi soki likama ezali, okofuta bomoi mpo na bomoi:
24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
liso mpo na liso, linu mpo na linu, loboko mpo na loboko, lokolo mpo na lokolo,
25 branding for branding, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
kozika mpo na kozika, pota mpo na pota, litutu mpo na litutu.
26 And if a man strike the eye of his bondman or the eye of his handmaid, and it be marred, he shall let him go for his eye.
Soki moto abeti mowumbu na ye ya mobali to mwasi mowumbu na ye na liso, mpe liso yango ekufi, moto yango akopesa bonsomi na mowumbu mpo na liso na ye.
27 And if he knock out his bondman's tooth or his handmaid's tooth, he shall let him go free for his tooth.
Soki abuki linu ya mowumbu na ye ya mobali to ya mwasi mowumbu na ye, akopesa ye bonsomi mpo na linu na ye.
28 And if an ox gore a man or a woman, so that they die, then the ox shall certainly be stoned, and its flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be guiltless.
Soki ngombe ebomi moto na maseke, basengeli koboma ngombe yango na mabanga, mpe bakolia mosuni na yango te; nzokande nkolo na yango akozwa etumbu te.
29 But if the ox have gored heretofore, and it have been testified to its owner, and he have not kept it in, and it kill a man or a woman, — the ox shall be stoned, and its owner also shall be put to death.
Soki ngombe ezali na momesano ya kobeta bato maseke, bongo bakebisi makasi nkolo na yango, kasi ye abateli kaka ngombe na ye malamu te mpe yango ebomi moto; basengeli koboma ngombe yango na mabanga mpe nkolo na yango asengeli kozwa etumbu ya kufa.
30 If there be imposed on him a satisfaction, then he shall give the ransom of his life, according to what is imposed on him.
Kasi soki basengi ye lomande mpo na kosikola bomoi na ye, akofuta nyonso oyo bakosenga ye.
31 Whether it gore a son or gore a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done to him.
Bakosalela mpe mobeko oyo soki ngombe ebeti mwana mobali to mwana mwasi maseke.
32 If the ox gore a bondman or a handmaid, he shall give to their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
Soki ngombe ebeti mowumbu ya mobali to mwasi mowumbu maseke, nkolo na yango asengeli kofuta mbongo ya bibende, tuku misato, epai ya nkolo ya mowumbu, mpe bakobamba ngombe yango mabanga.
33 — And if a man open a pit, or if a man dig a pit, and do not cover it, and an ox or an ass fall into it,
Soki moto atiki libulu polele to atimoli libulu mpe azipi yango te, bongo ngombe to ane ezindi kuna;
34 the owner of the pit shall make it good, shall give money to the owner of them; and the dead [ox] shall be his.
nkolo libulu asengeli kofuta epai ya nkolo nyama mbongo oyo ekokani na motuya ya nyama oyo esili kokufa, mpe nyama yango ekokoma ya ye.
35 — And if one man's ox gore his neighbour's ox, and it die, then they shall sell the live ox, and divide the money thereof, and divide the dead also.
Soki ngombe ya moto moko ebomi ngombe ya moto mosusu, esengeli koteka ngombe oyo ezali na bomoi mpe kokabola na kati-kati mbongo mpe ngombe oyo esili kokufa.
36 Or if it be known that the ox have gored heretofore, and its owner have not kept him in, he shall in any case restore ox for ox; and the dead shall be his.
Kasi soki eyebani ete ngombe yango emesana kobeta bato maseke, bongo nkolo na yango abateli yango malamu te; wana asengeli kofuta ngombe mpo na ngombe, mpe ngombe ya kokufa ekokoma ya ye.
