Deuteronomy 6

1 These are the precepts, and ceremonies, and judgments, which the Lord your God commanded that I should teach you, and that you should do them in the land into which you pass over to possess it:

Tala mibeko, bikateli mpe malako oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, atindi ngai koteya bino mpo ete bosalela yango kati na mokili oyo bokokota mpo na kokamata yango,

2 That thou mayst fear the Lord thy God, and keep all his commandments and precepts, which I command thee, and thy sons, and thy grandsons, all the days of thy life, that thy days may be prolonged.

mpo ete yo, bana na yo mpe bakitani na yo, botosa Yawe, Nzambe na bino, tango nyonso oyo bokozala na bomoi na kobatelaka bikateli na Ye nyonso mpe mibeko oyo napesi bino mpo ete bozala na bomoi molayi.

3 Hear, O Israel, and observe to do the things which the Lord hath commanded thee, that it may be well with thee, and thou mayst be greatly multiplied, as the Lord the God of thy fathers hath promised thee a land flowing with milk and honey.

Oh Isalaele, yoka malamu! Senzela ete otosa yango mpo ete ozala malamu mpe bokoma ebele na mokili oyo ezali kobimisa miliki mpe mafuta ya nzoyi, ndenge Yawe Nzambe ya bakoko na bino alakaki bino.

4 Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord.

Isalaele, yoka malamu! Yawe azali Nzambe na biso, Yawe azali kaka moko.

5 Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole strength.

Okolinga Yawe, Nzambe na yo, na motema na yo mobimba, na molimo na yo mobimba mpe na makasi na yo nyonso.

6 And these words which I command thee this day, shall be in thy heart:

Tika ete mibeko oyo napesi yo lelo, ewumela kati na motema na yo.

7 And thou shalt tell them to thy children, and thou shalt meditate upon them sitting in thy house, and walking on thy journey, sleeping and rising.

Okoteyaka yango na bana na yo tango ozali na ndako, tango ozali kotambola na nzela, tango olali mpe tango olamuki.

8 And thou shalt bind them as a sign on thy hand, and they shall be and shall move between thy eyes.

Kanga yango na maboko na yo lokola bilembo mpe tia yango na elongi na yo lokola elembo.

9 And thou shalt write them in the entry, and on the doors of thy house.

Koma yango na makonzi ya ndako na yo mpe na bikuke na yo.

10 And when the Lord thy God shall have brought thee into the land, for which he swore to thy fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: and shall have given thee great and goodly cities, which thou didst not build,

Tango Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akokotisa yo na mokili oyo alapelaki ndayi epai ya bakoko na yo, epai ya Abrayami, Izaki, mpe Jakobi mpo na kopesa yo bingumba ya minene mpe ya malamu oyo yo otongaki te,

11 Houses full of riches, which thou didst not set up, cisterns which thou didst not dig, vineyards and oliveyards, which thou didst not plant,

bandako etonda na biloko ya malamu ya ndenge na ndenge oyo yo otiaki te, mabulu ya mayi oyo yo otimolaki te, bilanga ya vino mpe ya olive oyo yo olonaki te; boye tango okolia mpe okotonda;

12 And thou shalt have eaten and be full:

keba ete obosana Yawe te oyo abimisaki yo na Ejipito, mokili ya bowumbu.

13 Take heed diligently lest thou forget the Lord, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God, and shalt serve him only, and thou shalt swear by his name.

Tosa Yawe, Nzambe na yo; salela kaka Ye mpe lapa ndayi na yo na Kombo na Ye.

14 You shall not go after the strange gods of all the nations, that are round about you:

Kosalela banzambe mosusu te, banzambe ya bato oyo bazingeli yo;

15 Because the Lord thy God is a jealous God in the midst of thee: lest at any time the wrath of the Lord thy God be kindled against thee, and take thee away from the face of the earth.

pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na yo, oyo azali kati na yo, azali Nzambe ya zuwa, mpo ete asilikela yo te mpe abebisa yo te na mokili.

16 Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God, as thou temptedst him in the place of temptation.

Komeka te Yawe, Nzambe na yo, ndenge osalaki na Masa.

17 Keep the precepts of the Lord thy God, and the testimonies and ceremonies which he hath commanded thee.

Batela malamu mibeko, mitindo mpe bikateli ya Yawe, Nzambe na yo, oyo apesi yo.

18 And do that which is pleasing and good in the sight of the Lord, that it may be well with thee: and going in thou mayst possess the goodly land, concerning which the Lord swore to thy fathers,

Sala oyo ezali alima mpe malamu na miso ya Yawe, mpo ete ozala moto ya esengo, mpo ete okota, mpe mpo ete okamata mokili ya malamu oyo Yawe alakaki kopesa na bakoko na yo na nzela ya ndayi,

19 That he would destroy all thy enemies before thee, as he hath spoken.

na kobengana banguna na yo nyonso liboso na yo, ndenge Yawe alobaki.

20 And when thy son shall ask thee tomorrow, saying: What mean these testimonies, and ceremonies and judgments, which the Lord our God hath commanded us?

Na mikolo ekoya, soki mwana na yo ya mobali atuni yo: Mitindo, bikateli mpe mibeko oyo Yawe, Nzambe na biso, atinda yo, elingi kolakisa nini?

21 Thou shalt say to him: We were bondmen of Pharao in Egypt, and the Lord brought us out of Egypt with a strong hand.

Okoloba na ye: Tozalaki bawumbu ya Faraon na Ejipito, kasi Yawe abimisaki biso na Ejipito na loboko na ye ya nguya.

22 And he wrought signs and wonders great and very grievous in Egypt against Pharao, and all his house, in our sight,

Yawe asalaki na miso na biso bilembo minene mpe bikamwa, ya minene mpe ya somo na Ejipito, na Faraon mpe na ndako na ye mobimba.

23 And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in and give us the land, concerning which he swore to our fathers.

Kasi abimisaki biso kuna mpo na kokotisa biso mpe kopesa biso mokili oyo alakaki na bakoko na biso na ndayi oyo alapaki.

24 And the Lord commanded that we should do all these ordinances, and should fear the Lord our God, that it might be well with us all the days of our life, as it is at this day.

Yawe atindaki biso kotosa mibeko oyo nyonso mpe kobanga Yawe, Nzambe na biso, mpo ete tozala tango nyonso malamu mpe tozala na bomoi ndenge ezali lelo.

25 And he will be merciful to us, if we keep and do all his precepts before the Lord our God, as he hath commanded us.

Mpe soki totosi malamu mibeko nyonso oyo, liboso ya Yawe, Nzambe na biso, ndenge atindaki biso, wana tokozala bato ya sembo.
