Numbers 10
1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
2 “Make two shofars of silver. You shall make them of beaten work. You shall use them for the calling of the congregation and for the journeying of the camps.
« Sala bakelelo mibale na palata oyo batuta. Okosalela yango mpo na kobengisa lisanga mpe mpo na kopesa mitindo ya kolongola molako.
3 When they blow them, all the congregation shall gather themselves to you at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
Soki bakelelo nyonso mibale ebeti nzela moko, lisanga mobimba ekosangana pembeni na yo, na ekotelo ya Ndako ya kapo ya Bokutani.
4 If they blow just one, then the princes, the heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves to you.
Soki kelelo moko kaka nde ebeti, kaka bakambi, bakonzi ya bituka ya Isalaele nde bakosangana liboso na yo.
5 When you blow an alarm, the camps that lie on the east side shall go forward.
Soki kelelo ebeti makasi, mabota oyo etongi molako na ngambo ya este ekokende.
6 When you blow an alarm the second time, the camps that lie on the south side shall go forward. They shall blow an alarm for their journeys.
Soki ebeti makasi mpo na mbala ya mibale, mabota oyo etongi molako na ngambo ya sude ekokende. Ebeteli ya kelelo nde ekozala elembo mpo na kopesa mbela ya kokende.
7 But when the assembly is to be gathered together, you shall blow, but you shall not sound an alarm.
Mpo na kosangisa lisanga, beta bakelelo, kasi makasi te.
8 “The sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the shofars. This shall be to you for a statute forever throughout your generations.
Bana mibali ya Aron, Banganga-Nzambe, bango nde bakobanda kobeta bakelelo yango. Ekozala mobeko ya libela mpo na bino mpe bakitani na bino.
9 When you go to war in your land against the adversary who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the shofars. Then you will be remembered before the LORD your God, and you will be saved from your enemies.
Tango, kati na mokili na bino moko, bokokende na bitumba mpo na kotelemela monguna oyo azali konyokola bino, bokobeta bakelelo na bino makasi. Boye, Yawe, Nzambe na bino, akokanisa bino mpe akokangola bino na maboko ya banguna na bino.
10 “Also in the day of your gladness, and in your set feasts, and in the beginnings of your months, you shall blow the shofars over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; and they shall be to you for a memorial before your God. I am the LORD your God.”
Mpe lisusu, na batango na bino ya kosepela, na bafeti na bino oyo ekatama mpe ya ebandeli ya sanza, bokobeta bakelelo mpo na kobonza mbeka na bino ya kotumba mpe ya boyokani. Yango ekozala ekaniseli mpo na bino na miso ya Nzambe na bino. Nazali Yawe, Nzambe na bino. »
11 In the second year, in the second month, on the twentieth day of the month, the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle of the covenant.
Na mokolo ya tuku mibale, ya sanza ya mibale, ya mobu oyo ya mibale, lipata etelemaki na likolo ya Mongombo ya Litatoli.
12 The children of Israel went forward on their journeys out of the wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud stayed in the wilderness of Paran.
Boye, bana ya Isalaele balongwaki na esobe ya Sinai, basalaki mobembo mpe batambolaki bisika na bisika kino tango lipata eyaki kopema na esobe ya Parani.

29 Moses said to Hobab, the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law, “We are journeying to the place of which the LORD said, ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us, and we will treat you well; for the LORD has spoken good concerning Israel.”
Moyize alobaki na Obabi, mwana mobali ya Reweli, moto ya Madiani, bokilo ya Moyize: — Tozali kokende na mokili oyo Yawe alobaki: « Nakopesa bino mokili yango. » Yaka kotambola elongo na biso. Tokosala ete obika bolamu oyo Yawe alakaki kosalela Isalaele.
30 He said to him, “I will not go; but I will depart to my own land, and to my relatives.”
Obabi azongiselaki ye: — Te! Nakokende elongo na bino te, nakozonga na mboka na ngai, kati na libota na ngai.
31 Moses said, “Don’t leave us, please; because you know how we are to encamp in the wilderness, and you can be our eyes.
Kasi Moyize alobaki: — Nabondeli yo: kotika biso te, pamba te yo nde oyebi bisika oyo tosengeli kotonga molako kati na esobe; okozala motambolisi na biso.
32 It shall be, if you go with us—yes, it shall be—that whatever good the LORD does to us, we will do the same to you.”
Soki otamboli na biso elongo, tokokabola elongo na yo eloko nyonso ya malamu oyo Yawe akopesa biso.
33 They set forward from the Mount of the LORD three days’ journey. The ark of the LORD’s covenant went before them three days’ journey, to seek out a resting place for them.
Boye, balongwaki na ngomba ya Yawe mpe batambolaki mikolo misato ya mobembo. Sanduku ya Boyokani ya Yawe etambolaki liboso na bango na mobembo oyo ya mikolo misato mpo na kolukela bango esika ya kopema.
34 The cloud of the LORD was over them by day, when they set forward from the camp.
Na moyi, lipata na Yawe ezalaki likolo na bango, na tango bazalaki kolongola molako.
35 When the ark went forward, Moses said, “Rise up, LORD, and let your enemies be scattered! Let those who hate you flee before you!”
Tango nyonso Sanduku ezalaki kokende, Moyize azalaki koloba: « Oh Yawe, telema! Tika ete banguna na Yo bapalangana! Tika ete banguna na Yo bakima liboso na Yo! »
36 When it rested, he said, “Return, LORD, to the ten thousands of the thousands of Israel.”
Mpe tango nyonso lipata ezalaki kopema, azalaki koloba: « Oh Yawe, zonga kati na bana ya Isalaele, pamba te bazali ebele penza! »
