Leviticus 18

1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

Yawe alobaki na Moyize:

2 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, I am the Lord your God.

« Yebisa bana ya Isalaele: ‹ Ngai nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino.

3 After ye doings of the land of Egypt, wherin ye dwelt, shall ye not doe: and after the maner of the land of Canaan, whither I will bring you, shall ye not do, neither walke in their ordinances,

Bokoki te kosala makambo ndenge esalemaka na Ejipito epai wapi bozalaki kovanda to na Kanana epai wapi nazali komema bino.

4 But do after my iudgements, and keepe mine ordinances, to walke therein: I am the Lord your God.

Bosengeli kotosa bobele mibeko mpe bikateli na Ngai. Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino.

5 Ye shall keepe therefore my statutes, and my iudgements, which if a man doe, he shall then liue in them: I am the Lord.

Bobatela mitindo mpe mibeko na Ngai, pamba te moto oyo akosalela yango akobika bomoi na ye na nzela na yango. Nazali Yawe.

6 None shall come neere to any of ye kinred of his flesh to vncouer her shame: I am the Lord.

Mobali moko te akosangisa nzoto na mwasi ya libota na ye penza. Nazali Yawe.

7 Thou shalt not vncouer the shame of thy father, nor the shame of thy mother: for she is thy mother, thou shalt not discouer her shame.

Okosambwisa te tata na yo na kosangisa nzoto na mama na yo. Lokola azali mama na yo, kosambwisa ye te.

Okopesa moko kati na bana na yo te lokola mbeka epai ya nzambe Moloki, pamba te osengeli te kobebisa lokumu ya Kombo ya Nzambe na yo. Ngai nazali Yawe.

22 Thou shalt not lie with ye male as one lieth with a woman: for it is abomination.

23 Thou shalt not also lie with any beast to bee defiled therewith, neither shall any woman stand before a beast, to lie downe thereto: for it is abomination.

Okosangisa nzoto te na nyama, noki te okokoma mbindo elongo na yango. Ndenge moko mpe mwasi akosangisa nzoto te na nyama: ezali kotiola Nzambe.

24 Yee shall not defile your selues in any of these things: for in al these the nations are defiled, which I will cast out before you:

Bomikomisa mbindo te na moko ya makambo oyo, pamba te ezali na nzela na yango nde bato ya bikolo oyo nazali kobengana liboso na bino bamikomisaki mbindo.

25 And the land is defiled: therefore I wil visit the wickednesse thereof vpon it, and the lande shall vomit out her inhabitants.

Lokola mboka yango moko mpe ekomaki mbindo, napesaki yango mpe etumbu mpo na lisumu na yango; bongo esanzaki bavandi na yango.

26 Ye shall keepe therefore mine ordinances, and my iudgements, and commit none of these abominations, aswell hee that is of the same countrey, as the straunger that soiourneth among you.

Kasi, ezala mwana mboka to mopaya oyo bazali kati na bino, bosengeli kotosa malako mpe bikateli na Ngai; mpe bosengeli koboya kosala makambo nyonso oyo ya nkele na miso ya Nzambe.

27 (For all these abominations haue the men of the land done, which were before you, and the land is defiled:

Pamba te bato oyo bazalaki kovanda na mboka oyo liboso na bino babandaki kosala makambo oyo nyonso, bongo mboka ekomaki mbindo.

28 And shall not the lande spue you out if ye defile it, as it spued out the people that were before you?)

Bino bokeba ete bokomisa mboka mbindo te, mpo ete yango esanza bino te ndenge esanzaki bato ya bikolo oyo bazalaki liboso na bino.

29 For whosoeuer shall commit any of these abominations, the persons that doe so, shall bee cut off from among their people.

Moto nyonso oyo akosala moko ya makambo oyo ya nkele na miso ya Nzambe, esengeli balongola ye kati na bato na ye.

30 Therefore shall yee keepe mine ordinances that ye do not any of the abominable customes, which haue bene done before you, and that yee defile not your selues therein: for I am the Lord your God.

Boye, bobatela malako na Ngai mpe bolanda ata likambo moko te kati na makambo mabe oyo ezalaki kosalema liboso ete bino boya, mpo ete bomikomisa mbindo te na nzela na yango. Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino. › »
