Exodus 12
1 Izip prae ah Angraeng mah Mosi hoi Aaron khaeah,
Now the LORD said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt,
2 Vaihi khrah loe nangcae han khrah tangsuek ah om tih; nangcae han saning amtong tangsuekhaih khrah ah om tih.
“This month is the beginning of months for you; it shall be the first month of your year.
3 Vaihi khrah ni hato naah, kami boih, angmacae imthung takoh maeto mah, tuucaa maeto sin hanah, amkhueng Israel kaminawk boih khaeah thui ah, tiah a naa.
Tell the whole congregation of Israel that on the tenth day of this month each man must select a lamb for his family, one per household.
4 Imthung takoh maeto hanah tuucaa maeto khawt ai nahaeloe, a imtaeng ih kami hoi angcuu o nasoe loe, kami khawt ah tuucaa to sin o nasoe.
If the household is too small for a whole lamb, they are to share with the nearest neighbor based on the number of people, and apportion the lamb accordingly.
5 Coek koi kaom ai, saningto kaom Tuu tae to sin oh; to loe Tuu, to tih ai boeh loe Ma-eh thung hoiah qoi oh;
Your lamb must be an unblemished year-old male, and you may take it from the sheep or the goats.
6 to khrah ni hatlai palito pha ai karoek to tuucaa to kahoih ah khen oh loe, ani phak naah amkhueng Israel kaminawk mah to tuucaa to khoving ah bop o tih.
You must keep it until the fourteenth day of the month, when the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel will slaughter the animals at twilight.
7 Athii to la oh loe, tuu moi na caak o haih im thok ranuih hoi thok tung ranui ah nok oh.
They are to take some of the blood and put it on the sides and tops of the doorframes of the houses where they eat the lambs.
8 To na ni duembang ah, hmai pakhaem ih moi to, kakhaa aan hoi taeh thuh ai ih takaw hoiah nawnto caa oh.
They are to eat the meat that night, roasted over the fire, along with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
9 Kahaeng moi maw, to tih ai boeh loe tui hoiah bueh ih moi to caa o hmah; toe a lu moi, a khok hoi palung pathinnawk loe hmai pakhaem pacoengah caa oh.
Do not eat any of the meat raw or cooked in boiling water, but only roasted over the fire—its head and legs and inner parts.
10 Moi to khawnbang khoek to suem o hmah; kamthlai zetta om nahaeloe, hmai hoiah qoeng oh.
Do not leave any of it until morning; before the morning you must burn up any part that is left over.
11 Moi na caak o naah, kaengkaeh to angzaeng oh, khokpanaibum abuen oh loe, ban ah cunghet to sin pacoengah, karangah caa oh; hae loe Angraeng ih loihhaih poih ah oh.
This is how you are to eat it: You must be fully dressed for travel, with your sandals on your feet and your staff in your hand. You are to eat in haste; it is the LORD’s Passover.
12 To na ni qum ah Izip prae thung boih ah ka caeh moe, kaminawk ih caa lu hoi tapen tangsuek moi to ka dueksak boih han; Izip sithawnawk to lok ka caek boih han; Kai loe Angraeng ah ka oh.
On that night I will pass through the land of Egypt and strike down every firstborn male, both man and beast, and I will execute judgment against all the gods of Egypt. I am the LORD.
13 Athii loe nangcae ohhaih im ah, angmathaih maeto ah om tih; athii ka hnuk naah, nangcae to kang takanh taak han; Izip prae ka tuk naah, nangcae nuiah kasae nathaih pha mak ai.
The blood on the houses where you are staying will distinguish them; when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No plague will fall on you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.
14 Hae ani hae pakuem o poe ah; na caanawk dung khoek to hae ani phak naah, Angraeng khaeah buh raenghaih poih to sah oh; sakzong ih atawk baktih toengah, to poih to dungzan khoek to sah oh.
And this day will be a memorial for you, and you are to celebrate it as a feast to the LORD, as a permanent statute for the generations to come.
15 Ni sarihto thung taeh thuh ai ih takaw to caa oh; ni amtong tangsuek naah imthung ih taeh to va oh; ni amtong tangsuek hoi ni sarihto thung taeh thuh ih takaw caa kami loe, Israel acaeng thung hoiah pahnawt oh.
For seven days you must eat unleavened bread. On the first day you are to remove the leaven from your houses. Whoever eats anything leavened from the first day through the seventh must be cut off from Israel.
16 Amtong tangsuekhaih ni hoi sarihto niah, kaciim amkhuenghaih to sah oh; caaknaek khue ai ah loe tok kalah roe sah o hmah.
On the first day you are to hold a sacred assembly, and another on the seventh day. You must not do any work on those days, except to prepare the meals—that is all you may do.
17 Hae na ni roe ah Izip prae thung hoiah kang tacawt o haih pongah, taeh thuh ai ih takaw caakhaih poih to sah oh; sakzong ih atawk baktih toengah, na caanawk dung khoek to hae ani hae zaa o poe ah.
So you are to keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread, for on this very day I brought your divisions out of the land of Egypt. You must keep this day as a permanent statute for the generations to come.
18 Khrah tangsuek, to akhrah ni hathlai palito duembang hoi kamtong ni pumphaeto pacoeng, nito duembang karoek to taeh thuh ai ih takaw to caa oh.
In the first month you are to eat unleavened bread, from the evening of the fourteenth day until the evening of the twenty-first day.
19 Ni sarihto thung na imthung ah taeh to suem o hmah; angvin maw, to tih ai boeh loe prae thung tapen kami mah maw, taeh thuh ih takaw to caa nahaeloe, Israel acaeng thung hoiah pahnawt oh.
For seven days there must be no leaven found in your houses. If anyone eats something leavened, that person, whether a foreigner or native of the land, must be cut off from the congregation of Israel.
20 Taeh hoi sak ih takaw to caa o hmah; na ohhaih ahmuen kruekah taeh thuh ai ih takaw to caa oh, tiah a naa.
You are not to eat anything leavened; eat unleavened bread in all your homes.”
21 To pacoengah Mosi mah Israel kacoehtanawk to kawk boih moe, nihcae khaeah, Caeh oh, nangmacae imthung takoh kakhawt ah, tuucaa maeto la oh loe, loihhaih poih sak hanah bop oh.
Then Moses summoned all the elders of Israel and told them, “Go at once and select for yourselves a lamb for each family, and slaughter the Passover lamb.
22 Hissop thing tadok tamsum maeto la oh, sabae kathuk pong ih tuu thii thungah nup oh loe, thok ranui hoi thok tung ranui boih ah nok oh; khawnbang khoek to mi doeh thok tasa bangah caeh o hmah.
Take a cluster of hyssop, dip it into the blood in the basin, and brush the blood on the top and sides of the doorframe. None of you shall go out the door of his house until morning.
23 Angraeng loe Izip kaminawk hum hanah Izip prae thung boih ah caeh tih; thok ranuih hoi thok tung ranuih boih ah nok ih athii to a hnuk naah, Angraeng mah to im thok to takan taak tih, to tiah kami humkung loe nangcae hum hanah imthung ah akunsak mak ai.
When the LORD passes through to strike down the Egyptians, He will see the blood on the top and sides of the doorframe and will pass over that doorway; so He will not allow the destroyer to enter your houses and strike you down.
24 Sakzong ih atawk baktih toengah, hae hmuen hae nangmacae hoi na caanawk mah doeh pazui o poe ah.
And you are to keep this command as a permanent statute for you and your descendants.
25 Angraeng mah lokkam ih baktih toengah, anih mah paek han thuih ih prae thungah na kun o naah, hae tok hae sah o poe ah.
When you enter the land that the LORD will give you as He promised, you are to keep this service.
26 Na caanawk mah, Hae tok loe tih thuih koehhaih ih maw? tiah na dueng o nahaeloe,
When your children ask you, ‘What does this service mean to you?’
27 nangcae mah nihcae khaeah, Hae loe Angraeng mah Izip kaminawk to hum moe, kaicae ih im loe pathlung, Izip prae ih Israel kaminawk ih im takan taakhaih, Angraeng ih loihhaih poih ah oh, tiah thui pae oh, tiah a naa. To pacoengah kaminawk mah akuep hoiah bok o.
you are to reply, ‘It is the Passover sacrifice to the LORD, who passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt when He struck down the Egyptians and spared our homes.’” Then the people bowed down and worshiped.
28 Angraeng mah Mosi hoi Aaron khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Israel kaminawk mah sak o.
And the Israelites went and did just what the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron.
29 Aqum naah Angraeng mah Izip prae ih caa lu boih, angraeng tangkhang nuiah anghnu, Faro caa lu hoi kamtong thongkrah kami ih caa lu, tapen tangsuek moinawk to dueksak boih.
Now at midnight the LORD struck down every firstborn male in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sat on his throne, to the firstborn of the prisoner in the dungeon, as well as all the firstborn among the livestock.
30 Faro, anih ih tamnanawk hoi Izip kaminawk loe qum ah angthawk o boih, Izip prae thungah qahhaih to oh; kadueh ai kami im roe maeto doeh om ai.
During the night Pharaoh got up—he and all his officials and all the Egyptians—and there was loud wailing in Egypt; for there was no house without someone dead.
31 Aqum ah Faro mah Mosi hoi Aaron to kawk, Angthawk hoih! Nangmah hnik hoi Israel kaminawk to angthawk oh loe, kai kaminawk khae hoiah caeh o lai ah! Nang hnik hoi ih baktih toengah, Angraeng to bok oh.
Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron by night and said, “Get up, leave my people, both you and the Israelites! Go, worship the LORD as you have requested.
32 Nangmacae ih tuunawk hoi maitawnawk doeh la oh loe, na thuih o ih baktih toengah caeh oh! Kai doeh tahamhoihaih na paek o toengah, tiah a naa.
Take your flocks and herds as well, just as you have said, and depart! And bless me also.”
33 Izip kaminawk mah, Kaicae loe kadueh kami ah ni ka oh o boih boeh, tiah a thuih o pongah, Israel kaminawk to Izip prae thung hoi karangah haek hanah, kaminawk to karangah pahruek o.
And in order to send them out of the land quickly, the Egyptians urged the people on. “For otherwise,” they said, “we are all going to die!”
34 To pongah kaminawk mah taeh thuh ai ih takaw kahaeng to lak o moe, takaw naephaih boengloengnawk doeh kahni hoiah tapawk o pacoengah, palaeng ah aput o.
So the people took their dough before it was leavened, carrying it on their shoulders in kneading bowls wrapped in clothing.
35 Mosi mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Israel kaminawk mah sak o; Izip kaminawk khaeah sui, sum kanglungnawk hoi khukbuennawk to a hnik o;
Furthermore, the Israelites acted on Moses’ word and asked the Egyptians for articles of silver and gold, and for clothing.
36 Angraeng mah Izip kaminawk khaeah tahmenhaih palungthin to paek pongah, nihcae mah hnik ih hmuen boih to a paek o. Nihcae mah Izip kaminawk ih hmuen to lak pae o.
And the LORD gave the people such favor in the sight of the Egyptians that they granted their request. In this way they plundered the Egyptians.
37 Israel kaminawk loe Rameses hoi Sukkoth ah caeh o; to ah caeh kaminawk loe nongpata hoi nawkta thui ai ah, kami sang cumvai tarukto oh o.
The Israelites journeyed from Rameses to Succoth with about 600,000 men on foot, besides women and children.
38 Congca kaminawk loe tuunawk, maitawnawk, paroeai pop moinawk hoi nawnto caeh o.
And a mixed multitude also went up with them, along with great droves of livestock, both flocks and herds.
39 Izip prae hoi sin o ih, taeh thuh ai ih takaw to lak o moe, taeh thuh ai ih takaw to hmai paop o; nihcae to Izip prae thung hoi karangah haek o, angmacae caak han mataeng doeh sak patok o pongah, takaw to taeh thuh ai ah a sin o.
Since their dough had no leaven, the people baked what they had brought out of Egypt into unleavened loaves. For when they had been driven out of Egypt, they could not delay and had not prepared any provisions for themselves.
40 Israel kaminawk loe Izip prae thungah saning cumvai pali, qui thumto oh o.
Now the duration of the Israelites’ stay in Egypt was 430 years.
41 Angraeng ih misatuh kaminawk loe saning cumvai pali, qui thumto boeng na niah, Izip prae thung hoiah tacawt o.
At the end of the 430 years, to the very day, all the LORD’s divisions went out of the land of Egypt.
42 Aqum ah Izip prae thung hoi caeh haih hanah, Angraeng mah nihcae to toep pongah, to aqum loe Israel caanawk boih mah zah han koi Angraeng ih aqum ah oh.
Because the LORD kept a vigil that night to bring them out of the land of Egypt, this same night is to be a vigil to the LORD, to be observed by all the Israelites for the generations to come.
43 Angraeng mah Mosi hoi Aaron khaeah, Hae loe loihhaih poih sakhaih atawk ah oh; to pongah kawbaktih angvin mah doeh caa thai mak ai.
And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of the Passover: No foreigner is to eat of it.
44 Toe misong ah na qan ih kami loe, tangzat hin aah pacoengah ni, caa tih.
But any slave who has been purchased may eat of it, after you have circumcised him.
45 Prae kalah kami, toksak han na tlai ih kaminawk loe caa o thai mak ai.
A temporary resident or hired hand shall not eat the Passover.
46 Im maeto ah caa oh; moi to im tasa bangah sin o hmah; ahuh doeh angkhaek o sak hmah.
It must be eaten inside one house. You are not to take any of the meat outside the house, and you may not break any of the bones.
47 Israel kaminawk boih mah to poih to sah oh.
The whole congregation of Israel must celebrate it.
48 Nangcae thung kaom angvin mah Angraeng loihhaih poih to sak koeh nahaeloe, a imthung takoh ih nongpanawk boih tangzat hin aat o nasoe; to pacoengah ni prae kaminawk baktiah sah o thai tih; tangzat hin aat ai kami loe mi doeh caa thai mak ai.
If a foreigner resides with you and wants to celebrate the LORD’s Passover, all the males in the household must be circumcised; then he may come near to celebrate it, and he shall be like a native of the land. But no uncircumcised man may eat of it.
49 Prae thung tapen kami hoi nangcae salakah kaom prae kalah kami hanah, kanghmong daan maeto patoh oh, tiah a naa.
The same law shall apply to both the native and the foreigner who resides among you.”
50 Angraeng mah Mosi hoi Aaron khaeah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Israel kaminawk boih mah sak o.
Then all the Israelites did this—they did just as the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron.
51 To na niah Angraeng mah Israel misatuh kaminawk to, Izip prae thung hoiah a caeh haih.
And on that very day the LORD brought the Israelites out of the land of Egypt by their divisions.
