< Deteronomi 12 >

1 Tala bikateli mpe mibeko oyo bosengeli kosalela malamu kati na mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe ya bakoko na bino, azali kopesa bino mpo na kozwa, na tango nyonso oyo bokowumela kati na mokili yango.
These are the statutes and judgments, which all of you shall observe to do in the land, which the LORD God of your fathers gives you to possess it, all the days that all of you live upon the earth.
2 Bobebisa bisika nyonso oyo bato ya bikolo oyo bozali kobengana bazalaki kogumbamela banzambe na bango na likolo ya bangomba ya milayi mpe ya mikuse mpe na se ya banzete nyonso oyo ezali na makasa ya mobesu.
All of you shall utterly destroy all the places, wherein the nations which all of you shall possess served their gods, upon the high mountains, and upon the hills, and under every green tree:
3 Bokweyisa bitumbelo na bango, bobuka mabanga na bango ya bule, botumba na moto makonzi na bango ya bule, bopanza na biteni bikeko ya banzambe na bango mpe bolimwisa bakombo na bango na bisika wana.
And all of you shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars, and burn their groves with fire; and all of you shall hew down the graven images of their gods, and destroy the names of them out of that place.
4 Nzokande mpo na bino, bosengeli te kogumbamela Yawe, Nzambe na bino, na lolenge na bango.
All of you shall not do so unto the LORD your God.
5 Bosengeli koluka esika oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akopona kati na bikolo na bino nyonso mpo na kotia Kombo na Ye mpe mpo na kokomisa yango esika na Ye. Ezali na esika yango kaka nde bosengeli kokende.
But unto the place which the LORD your God shall choose out of all your tribes to put his name there, even unto his habitation shall all of you seek, and thither you shall come:
6 Ezali kuna nde bokomema bambeka na bino ya kotumba, makabo na bino, eteni na bino ya zomi, bakado ya ndenge na ndenge, makabo mpo na kokokisa ndayi, makabo oyo bokokata kopesa wuta na mokano ya mitema na bino moko mpe bana mibali ya liboso ya bangombe, ya bameme mpe ya bantaba na bino.
And thither all of you shall bring your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, and your tithes, and heave offerings of your hand, and your vows, and your freewill offerings, and the firstlings of your herds and of your flocks:
7 Kaka na esika yango, na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, bino mpe mabota na bino bokolia mpe bokosepela na eloko nyonso oyo bokosala na maboko na bino; pamba te Yawe, Nzambe na bino, apamboli bino.
And there all of you shall eat before the LORD your God, and all of you shall rejoice in all that all of you put your hand unto, all of you and your households, wherein the LORD your God has blessed you.
8 Bosengeli lisusu te kosala ndenge tozali kosala awa, na mokolo ya lelo: moto nyonso azali kosala ndenge alingi.
All of you shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every man whatsoever is right in his own eyes.
9 Pamba te kino lelo, bokoti nanu te na esika ya bopemi mpe bozwi nanu te libula oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, azali kopesa bino.
For all of you are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which the LORD your God gives you.
10 Kasi bokokatisa Yordani mpe bokovanda na mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, azali kopesa bino lokola libula. Akopesa bino bopemi na kokangolaka bino na maboko ya banguna na bino nyonso oyo bazingeli bino, mpe bokovanda na kimia.
But when all of you go over Jordan, and dwell in the land which the LORD your God gives you to inherit, and when he gives you rest from all your enemies round about, so that all of you dwell in safety;
11 Boye, na esika oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akopona mpo na kotia Kombo na Ye, bokomema eloko nyonso oyo natindi bino: bambeka na bino ya kotumba, makabo na bino, biteni na bino ya zomi, bakado na bino ya ndenge na ndenge mpe biloko nyonso ya kitoko oyo bozali na yango, oyo bolapaki ndayi mpo na kopesa epai na Yawe.
Then there shall be a place which the LORD your God shall choose to cause his name to dwell there; thither shall all of you bring all that I command you; your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which all of you vow unto the LORD:
12 Kuna kaka nde bokosepela liboso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino; bino, bana na bino ya mibali mpe ya basi, bawumbu na bino ya mibali, basi bawumbu na bino, mpe Balevi oyo bazali kati na bingumba na bino, pamba te bazangi eteni ya mabele to libula kati na bino.
And all of you shall rejoice before the LORD your God, all of you, and your sons, and your daughters, and your male servants, and your maidservants, and the Levite that is within your gates; forasmuch as he has no part nor inheritance with you.
13 Bosala keba ete bobonza te bambeka na bino ya kotumba na bisika nyonso oyo bokomona.
Take heed to yourself that you offer not your burnt offerings in every place that you see:
14 Bokobonza bambeka yango kaka na esika oyo Yawe akopona kati na moko ya bikolo na bino, mpe kuna kaka nde bokosala makambo nyonso oyo natindi bino.
But in the place which the LORD shall choose in one of your tribes, there you shall offer your burnt offerings, and there you shall do all that I command you.
15 Nzokande, bokoki kokata kingo ya bibwele na bino mpe kolia misuni na yango ndenge bolingi kati na bingumba na bino nyonso, ezala mboloko to pambi, kolanda mapamboli oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akopesa bino. Moto ya mbindo to moto ya peto akoki na ye kolia yango.
Notwithstanding you may kill and eat flesh in all your gates, whatsoever your soul lusts after, according to the blessing of the LORD your God which he has given you: the unclean and the clean may eat thereof, as of the roebuck, and as of the hart.
16 Kasi bosengeli te kolia makila; bosopa yango lokola mayi na mabele.
Only all of you shall not eat the blood; all of you shall pour it upon the earth as water.
17 Bosengeli te kolia kati na bingumba na bino eteni ya zomi ya bambuma na bino, ya vino na bino ya sika, ya mafuta na bino, bana ya liboso ya bangombe na bino, ya bameme na bino, ya bantaba na bino to makabo nyonso oyo bopesaki mpo na kokokisa ndayi, makabo oyo bokataki kopesa wuta na mokano ya mitema na bino moko to makabo ya ndenge na ndenge.
You may not eat within your gates the tithe of your corn, or of your wine, or of your oil, or the firstlings of your herds or of your flock, nor any of your vows which you vow, nor your freewill offerings, or heave offering of your hand:
18 Kasi bokolia yango kaka na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, na esika oyo Yawe Nzambe akopona: bino, bana na bino ya mibali mpe ya basi, bawumbu na bino ya mibali, basi bawumbu na bino, Balevi oyo bazali kati na bingumba na bino mpe bokosepela liboso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino, na mosala nyonso oyo maboko na bino ekosala.
But you must eat them before the LORD your God in the place which the LORD your God shall choose, you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite that is within your gates: and you shall rejoice before the LORD your God in all that you put your hands unto.
19 Tango nyonso bokovanda kati na mokili na bino, bosala keba ete bobosana Balevi te.
Take heed to yourself that you forsake not the Levite as long as you live upon the earth.
20 Tango Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akokomisa mokili na bino monene ndenge alakaki bino mpe tango bokozala na posa ya kolia mosuni mpe bokoloba: « Nazali na posa ya kolia mosuni, » bokolia yango ndenge bolingi.
When the LORD your God shall enlarge your border, as he has promised you, and you shall say, I will eat flesh, because your soul longs to eat flesh; you may eat flesh, whatsoever your soul lusts after.
21 Soki esika oyo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, aponi mpo na kotia Kombo na Ye ezali mosika mingi mpo na bino, wana bokokata kingo ya bangombe na bino, ya bantaba na bino, ya bameme na bino, oyo Yawe apesaki bino ndenge natindaki bino mpe bokoki kolia yango ndenge bolingi kati na bingumba na bino.
If the place which the LORD your God has chosen to put his name there be too far from you, then you shall kill of your herd and of your flock, which the LORD has given you, as I have commanded you, and you shall eat in your gates whatsoever your soul lusts after.
22 Bokolia yango ndenge baliaka pambi to mboloko; moto nyonso, azala mbindo to peto, akoki na ye kolia yango.
Even as the roebuck and the hart is eaten, so you shall eat them: the unclean and the clean shall eat of them alike.
23 Kasi bosala keba ete bolia makila te, pamba te makila ezali bomoi, mpe bosengeli te kolia bomoi elongo na nyama.
Only be sure that you eat not the blood: for the blood is the life; and you may not eat the life with the flesh.
24 Bosengeli te kolia makila; kasi bosopa yango na mabele ndenge basopaka mayi.
You shall not eat it; you shall pour it upon the earth as water.
25 Bolia yango te mpo ete bomona bolamu, bino mpe bana na bino; na nzela wana nde bokosala oyo ezali alima na miso ya Yawe.
You shall not eat it; that it may go well with you, and with your children after you, when you shall do that which is right in the sight of the LORD.
26 Kasi bokozwa biloko na bino ya bule mpe biloko nyonso oyo bolapaki ndayi mpo na kopesa, mpe bokokende na esika oyo Yawe akopona.
Only your holy things which you have, and your vows, you shall take, and go unto the place which the LORD shall choose:
27 Bokotumba mosuni mpe makila ya bambeka na bino ya kotumba na etumbelo ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino. Bokosopa makila ya bambeka na bino mosusu na etumbelo ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino; kasi mpo na mosuni na yango, bokoki na bino kolia yango.
And you shall offer your burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood, upon the altar of the LORD your God: and the blood of your sacrifices shall be poured out upon the altar of the LORD your God, and you shall eat the flesh.
28 Bosala keba mpo na kotosa mibeko oyo nazali kopesa bino mpo ete bomona bolamu tango nyonso, bino mpe bana na bino, pamba te na nzela wana nde bokosala oyo ezali malamu mpe alima na miso ya Yawe, Nzambe na bino.
Observe and hear all these words which I command you, that it may go well with you, and with your children after you for ever, when you do that which is good and right in the sight of the LORD your God.
29 Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akolimwisa na liboso na bino bikolo oyo bozali kokende kobundisa mpe kobotola. Kasi tango bokobengana bango mpe bokovanda na bamboka na bango,
When the LORD your God shall cut off the nations from before you, where you go to possess them, and you succeed them, and dwell in their land;
30 mpe tango bokosilisa kobebisa bango liboso na bino, bosala keba ete bokweya te na motambo na bango ya kosalela banzambe na bango mpe na motambo ya koluka koyeba na komitunaka: « Ndenge nini bikolo oyo esalelaka banzambe na bango? Tokosala ndenge moko mpe kati na bingumba na biso. »
Take heed to yourself that you be not snared by following them, after that they be destroyed from before you; and that you enquire not after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise.
31 Bokoki te kogumbamela Yawe, Nzambe na bino, ndenge bango basalaka. Pamba te Yawe amonaka yango lokola likambo ya nkele mpe ayinaka makambo oyo basalaki mpo na banzambe na bango: bazalaki ata kotumbaka na moto bana na bango ya mibali mpe ya basi lokola mbeka mpo na banzambe na bango.
You shall not do so unto the LORD your God: for every abomination to the LORD, which he hates, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their gods.
32 Tala, bosala nyonso oyo natindi bino, bobakisa to bolongola ata eloko moko te.
Whatsoever I command you, observe to do it: you shall not add thereto, nor diminish from it.
