Deteronomi 30
1 Maloba oyo nawuti koloba, mapamboli mpe bilakeli mabe oyo napesi yo mpo ete opona, ekokokisama. Soki obateli yango malamu na motema na yo kati na bikolo nyonso epai wapi Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akobengana yo;
It shall happen, when all these things have come on you, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before you, and you shall call them to mind among all the nations, where Jehovah your God has driven you,
2 soki ozongi epai na Yawe, Nzambe na yo; soki yo mpe bana na yo botosi Ye, na mitema mpe na milimo na bino mobimba, na makambo nyonso oyo natindi yo lelo,
and shall return to Jehovah your God, and shall obey his voice according to all that I command you this day, you and your children, with all your heart, and with all your soul;
3 Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akoyokela yo mawa: akozongisa bato na yo, oyo bakendeki na bowumbu mpe akosangisa bino lisusu wuta na bikolo nyonso epai wapi apanzaki bino.
that then Jehovah your God will turn your captivity, and have compassion on you, and will return and gather you from all the peoples, where Jehovah your God has scattered you.
4 Atako bokendeki na bamboka ya mosika kati na mokili, Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akoluka kosangisa bino longwa kuna mpe akozongisa bino.
If any of you are driven out to the farthest horizon, from there will Jehovah your God gather you, and from there he will bring you back:
5 Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akomema bino na mokili ya bakoko na bino, mpe bokozwa yango; akosalela bino bolamu mpe akokomisa bino ebele koleka bakoko na bino.
and Jehovah your God will bring you into the land which your fathers possessed, and you shall possess it; and he will do you good, and multiply you above your fathers.
6 Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akobulisa mitema na bino mpe mitema ya bakitani na bino mpo ete bolinga Ye na mitema mpe na milimo na bino mobimba, mpe mpo ete bozala na bomoi.
Jehovah your God will circumcise your heart, and the heart of your descendants, to love Jehovah your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, that you may live.
7 Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akotia bilakeli nyonso ya mabe likolo ya banguna na bino, oyo bayinaka bino mpe banyokolaka bino.
Jehovah your God will put all these curses on your enemies, and on those who hate you, who persecuted you.
8 Bokotosa lisusu Yawe mpe bokosalela mitindo na Ye nyonso oyo nazali kopesa bino lelo.
You shall return and obey the voice of Jehovah, and do all his commandments which I command you this day.
9 Bongo Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akosala ete bomona bolamu kati na misala nyonso ya maboko na bino, mpe akopesa bino bana ebele, bibwele ebele mpe bambuma ebele kati na mokili na bino. Yawe akosepela na bino lisusu mpe akosalela bino bolamu, ndenge kaka asepelaki na bakoko na bino,
Jehovah your God will make you plenteous in all the work of your hand, in the fruit of your womb, and in the fruit of your ground, and in the fruit of your livestock, for Jehovah will again rejoice over you for good, as he rejoiced over your fathers;
10 soki botosi Yawe, Nzambe na bino, mpe bobateli mitindo mpe bikateli na Ye, oyo ekomama kati na buku oyo ya Mobeko, mpe soki bozongi epai na Yawe, Nzambe na bino, na mitema mpe na milimo na bino mobimba.
if you shall obey the voice of Jehovah your God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law; if you turn to Jehovah your God with all your heart, and with all your soul.
11 Makambo oyo nazali kotinda yo lelo, ezali penza pasi te mpe elekeli yo te na makasi.
For this commandment which I command you this day is not too difficult for you, nor is it far off.
12 Ezali te kati na Likolo mpo ete okoka kotuna: « Nani akomata kuna na Likolo mpo na kozwela ngai yango mpe kosakolela ngai yango mpo ete nakoka kotosa yango? »
It is not in heaven, that you should say, "Who will go up into heaven for us, and get it for us, and proclaim it to us, that we may obey it?"
13 Ezali te na ngambo mosusu ya ebale monene mpo ete okoka kotuna: « Nani akokatisa ebale monene mpo na kokamata yango mpe kosakolela ngai yango, mpo ete nakoka kotosa yango? »
And it is not in the deep of the sea, that you should say, "Who will go down into the deep of the sea for us, and get it for us, and proclaim it to us, so that we may obey it?"
14 Te, liloba yango ezali pene na yo, ezali kati na monoko na yo mpe kati na motema na yo, mpo ete okoka kotosa yango.
But the word is very near to you; it is in your mouth and in your heart and in your hand, so that you can do it.
15 Tala, nasili kotia lelo, liboso na yo, bomoi mpe bolamu, kufa mpe mabe.
Look, I have set before you this day life and good, and death and evil.
16 Tala likambo oyo Ngai natindi yo lelo: linga Yawe, Nzambe na yo, tambola na banzela na Ye mpe batela mitindo na Ye, bikateli na Ye mpe mibeko na Ye. Bongo okozala na bomoi, mpe bokokoma ebele; mpe Yawe, Nzambe na yo, akopambola yo kati na mokili oyo bozali kokota mpo na kozwa.
If you obey the commandments of Jehovah your God that I command you this day to love Jehovah your God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, then you will live and multiply, and Jehovah your God will bless you in the land where you are going to possess it.
17 Kasi soki motema na yo epengwi mpe otosi te, soki okosami na kogumbamela banzambe mosusu mpe na kosambela yango,
But if your heart turns away, and you will not hear, but shall be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
18 nalobi na yo, na mokolo ya lelo, ete okobebisama solo, okowumela lisusu te kati na mokili oyo ezali na ngambo mosusu ya Yordani, epai wapi bokokota mpo na kozwa.
I declare to you this day that you will certainly perish; you will not live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess.
19 Na mokolo ya lelo, nazwi likolo mpe se lokola batatoli mpo na yo: nasili kotia liboso na yo bomoi mpe kufa, mapamboli mpe bilakeli mabe. Sik’oyo, pona bomoi mpo ete yo mpe bana na yo bozala na bomoi.
I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before you life and death, the blessing and the curse: therefore choose life, that you may live, you and your descendants;
20 Mpe pona kolinga Yawe, Nzambe na yo, koyoka mongongo na Ye mpe kokangama na Ye, pamba te azali bomoi na yo mpe akopesa yo mibu ebele kati na mokili oyo Yawe alakaki kopesa, na nzela ya ndayi, epai ya bakoko na yo —Abrayami, Izaki mpe Jakobi.
to love Jehovah your God, to obey his voice, and to cling to him; for he is your life, and the length of your days; that you may dwell in the land which Jehovah swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them."
