Exodus 20 (LIN)

1Tala maloba oyo Nzambe alobaki :And God spoke all these words:

2« Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na yo, oyo abimisaki yo wuta na mokili ya Ejipito epai wapi ozalaki na bowumbu.“I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.

3Okozalaka na banzambe mosusu te, bobele Ngai.You shall have no other gods before Me.

4Okomisalelaka te nzambe ya ekeko to bililingi ya biloko oyo ezali na likolo, na se to na mayi oyo ezali na se ya mabele.You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in the heavens above, on the earth below, or in the waters beneath.

5Okogumbamelaka yango te mpe okosalelaka yango te, pamba te Ngai Yawe, Nzambe na yo, nazali Nzambe ya zuwa ; napesaka bana etumbu mpo na masumu ya batata kino na molongo ya misato mpe ya minei ya bato oyo bayinaka Ngai.You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on their children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me,

6Kasi natalisaka bolingo na Ngai kino na molongo ya nkoto epai ya bato oyo balingaka Ngai mpe babatelaka mibeko na Ngai.but showing loving devotion to a thousand generations of those who love Me and keep My commandments.

7Okotangaka te na pamba Kombo ya Yawe, Nzambe na yo, pamba te Yawe akopesa etumbu na moto nyonso oyo akotanga Kombo na Ye na pamba.You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not leave anyone unpunished who takes His name in vain.

8Kanisaka mokolo ya Saba mpe bulisaka yango.Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.

9Okosalaka misala na yo nyonso mikolo motoba.Six days you shall labor and do all your work,

10Kasi mokolo ya sambo ezali mokolo ya Saba ya Yawe, Nzambe na yo. Na mokolo wana, okosalaka mosala ata moko te ; ezala yo, mwana na yo ya mobali, mwana na yo ya mwasi, mowumbu na yo ya mobali, mwasi mowumbu na yo, bibwele na yo to mopaya oyo azali kati na bingumba na yo.but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God, on which you must not do any work—neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant or livestock, nor the foreigner within your gates.

11Pamba te na mikolo motoba, Yawe asalaki Likolo, mabele, ebale monene mpe nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango, kasi akataki mosala na mokolo ya sambo. Yango wana, Yawe apambolaki mokolo ya Saba mpe abulisaki yango.For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth and the sea and all that is in them, but on the seventh day He rested. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart as holy.

12Okopesaka tata na yo mpe mama na yo lokumu mpo ete ozala na bomoi ya molayi kati na mokili oyo Yawe, Nzambe na yo, azali kopesa yo.Honor your father and mother, so that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you.

13Okobomaka te.You shall not murder.

14Okosalaka ekobo te.You shall not commit adultery.

15Okoyibaka te.You shall not steal.

16Okolobaka te matatoli ya lokuta mpo na kokosela moninga na yo makambo.You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

17Okolulaka te ndako ya moninga na yo ; okolulaka te mwasi ya moninga na yo, mowumbu na ye ya mobali to mwasi mowumbu na ye, ngombe na ye, ane na ye to eloko nyonso oyo ezali ya moninga na yo. »You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his manservant or maidservant, or his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”

18Tango bato bayokaki bakake mpe koganga ya kelelo, mpe bamonaki mikalikali mpe milinga kobima na ngomba, balengaki. Batelemaki mosikaWhen all the people witnessed the thunder and lightning, the sounding of the ram’s horn, and the mountain enveloped in smoke, they trembled and stood at a distance.

19mpe balobaki na Moyize : — Tika ete yo moko oloba na biso, mpe tokoyoka yo ; kasi Nzambe te, noki te tokokufa !“Speak to us yourself and we will listen,” they said to Moses. “But do not let God speak to us, or we will die.”

20Moyize azongiselaki bango : — Bobanga te ! Nzambe ayei nde komeka bino mpo ete kobanga Nzambe ezala kati na bino mpe bosala masumu te.“Do not be afraid,” Moses replied. “For God has come to test you, so that the fear of Him may be before you, to keep you from sinning.”

21Bato bazalaki kaka mosika, wana Moyize apusanaki pembeni ya lipata oyo kati na yango Nzambe azalaki.And the people stood at a distance as Moses approached the thick darkness where God was.

22Yawe alobaki na Moyize : — Yebisa makambo oyo epai ya bana ya Isalaele : « Bomonaki bino moko ndenge nini nalobelaki bino wuta na likolo.Then the LORD said to Moses, “This is what you are to tell the Israelites: ‘You have seen for yourselves that I have spoken to you from heaven.

23Bokomisalela te banzambe ya bikeko ya palata to ya wolo, mpo na kosangisa yango na Ngai.You are not to make any gods alongside Me; you are not to make for yourselves gods of silver or gold.

24Okotongela Ngai etumbelo ya mabele epai wapi okobonza bambeka na yo ya kotumba, bambeka na yo ya boyokani, meme na yo, ntaba na yo, ngombe na yo. Esika nyonso oyo nakomimonisa mpo na lokumu ya Kombo na Ngai, nakoya epai na yo mpe nakopambola yo.You are to make for Me an altar of earth, and sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and peace offerings, your sheep and goats and cattle. In every place where I cause My name to be remembered, I will come to you and bless you.

25Soki otongeli Ngai etumbelo ya mabanga, okotonga yango te na mabanga oyo bakata ; pamba te soki okati yango, okobebisa bosantu na yango.Now if you make an altar of stones for Me, you must not build it with stones shaped by tools; for if you use a chisel on it, you will defile it.

26Okomata te na etumbelo na Ngai na ematelo mpo ete bolumbu na yo emonana te. »And you must not go up to My altar on steps, lest your nakedness be exposed on it.’
