Wuok 12
1 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa gi Harun ka gin Misri niya,
Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me there in Egypt,
2 “Dweni ema biro bedonu dwe mokwongo, ma en dwe mokwongo mar hiku.
“[From now on], this month [will be] the first month of the year for you.
3 Nyis oganda duto mar Israel ni odiechiengʼ mar apar mar dweni, ngʼato ka ngʼato nyaka gol achiel kuom nyirombe ne joode, nyarombo achiel ne ot ka ot.
Tell all the Israeli people that in each family, the man who heads the family must select a lamb or a young goat for his household.
4 To ka nitie joot matin ma nyarombo achiel ohingo, to nyaka giriwre e nyarombo achiel gi joot machiegni kodgi, bangʼ ka gisekawo kwan joma ni kanyo. Nyaka ongʼe kar nyirombe madwarore kaluwore gi gima ngʼato ka ngʼato biro chamo.
If there are not enough people in his family to eat a whole [cooked] lamb, then his family and the family that lives next door may share one animal. Decide how many lambs you need according to the number of people in each family, and according to how much each person can eat.
5 Chiayo ma uyiero nyaka bed madichwo ma ja-higa achiel maonge songa kendo unyalo yierogi kuom rombe kata diek.
The lambs or goats that you choose must be males, one-year-old, and they must not have any defects.
6 Neni urito chiayogo nyaka odiechiengʼ mar apar gangʼwen mar dwe, eka oganda jo-Israel duto noyangʼ-gi ka chiengʼ wuok.
You must take [special] care of these animals until the 14th day of the month. On that day, all the Israeli people must slaughter the lambs [or goats] in the evening.
7 Eka bangʼe to gikaw remo moko kendo giwirgo sirni mag dhoudi kod wi dhoudi.
Then they must take some of the blood [from the lambs or goats], and they must smear it on the doorposts and the (lintels/horizontal beams above the doorways) of the houses in which they will eat the meat.
8 E otieno nogo nyaka gicham ringʼo mobul kaachiel gi alode makech kod makati ma ok oketie thowi.
They must roast the animals immediately and eat the meat that night. They must eat it with bread that is baked without yeast and with bitter herbs.
9 Kik ucham ringʼo manumu kata motedi gi kado to nyaka ubul lemb chiayogo; wich, tielo kaachiel gi jamb-ich.
You must not eat any of the meat raw, and you must not boil the meat. You must roast it [whole], without cutting off the head or the legs or removing the internal parts.
10 Kik uwe lemo moro dongʼ ma ok uchamo nyaka okinyi; to kapo nono moro odongʼ to nyaka wangʼe e mach chuth.
You must eat all the meat that evening; do not let any of the meat remain [to be eaten] the next morning. If any of the meat is left until the next morning, you must [completely] burn it.
11 Ma e kaka onego uchame: Ka utweyo okanda enungou, ka urwako wuoche e tiendu kendo umako luth e lwetu; nyaka une ni uchame piyo nikech en sawo mar Pasaka mar Jehova Nyasaye.
When you eat it, you must be dressed ready to travel, and you must eat it quickly. You must have your sandals on your feet and your walking stick in your hands. It will be a festival [called] Passover to [honor] me, Yahweh.
12 “E otienono abiro wuotho e piny Misri duto kendo naneg nyathi ka nyathi madichwo makayo mar dhano kod chiayo, bende nakum nyiseche duto mag jo-Misri, an Jehova Nyasaye ema awacho kamano.
On that night I will go through all the country of Egypt, and I will kill all the oldest males in Egypt, both humans and animals. [By doing this] I will show that all the gods in Egypt are worthless. [I can do this], because I am Yahweh, [the all-powerful God].
13 Remono nobed kido mar ranyisi makende manyiso kuma udakie kendo ka aneno remogo to anakadhu. Masiche ma agoyogo piny Misri ok nomaku.
The blood [that you smear on the doorways will be a mark to indicate] the houses in which you [Israelis] live. When I see the blood, I will [ignore and] pass by those houses, and I will not harm you [Israelis who live there], when I punish the Egyptians.
14 “Ma en odiechiengʼ manyaka upar ne tiengeu duto mabiro kendo nyaka urite ka sawo mochwere ni Jehova Nyasaye.
[Each year], you must celebrate this festival on this day, to remember [what I], Yahweh, [have done for you]. In all the generations to come, [each year] you must celebrate [this festival]. [It must continue] forever.
15 Kuom ndalo abiriyo nyaka ucham makati ma ok oketie thowi. Odiechiengʼ mokwongo nyaka ugol oko thowi ma ukano e ute, nikech ngʼato angʼata ma ochamo gimoro amora ma oted gi thowi chakre chiengʼ mokwongo nyaka chiengʼ mar abiriyo to nongʼad kare oko kuom oganda jo-Israel.
For seven days you must eat bread that has no yeast in it. On the first day of that week you must get rid of all the yeast that is in your houses. During those seven days, if anyone eats bread that is baked with yeast in it, [you must consider] that person to be no longer an Israeli.
16 Chiengʼ mokwongo kod chiengʼ mar abiriyo nyaka ubed gi chokruok mowal. Kik utim tich moro amora kuom odiechiengego makmana loso chiemo ma ji duto chamo; mano kende e gima unyalo timo.
On the first day [of that week], you must (have a holy meeting/gather together to [worship] me). You must do the same thing on the seventh day. People must not work on those two days. The only work they may do is to prepare food for you to eat.
17 “Nyaka utim Sawo mar makati ma ok oketie thowi, nikech chiengʼno ema ne agoloue piny Misri. Timuru nyasini odiechiengni kaka sawo mochwere ne tiengeu duto mabiro.
[Every year] you must keep celebrating this festival of eating bread that has no yeast in it, because it will remind you that it was on this day that I brought all your tribal groups out of Egypt. So [every year], in all the generations to come, you must celebrate this day as a festival. It must continue forever.
18 Chakre odhiambo mar tarik apar gangʼwen nyaka odhiambo mar tarik piero ariyo gachiel mar dwe mokwongo nyaka ucham makati ma ok oketie thowi.
In the first month of the year, on the 14th day of that month, the only bread you may eat is bread that has no yeast in it. You must keep doing that each day until the 21st day of that month. For those seven days you must not have any yeast in your house. [During that time], if anyone, either an Israeli or a foreigner, eats bread made with yeast, you must consider that person no longer to be an Israeli.
19 Kuom ndalo abiriyo thowi moro amora kik yud e uteu, kendo ngʼato angʼata mochamo gimoro amora moketie thowi nyaka ngʼad kare oko kuom oganda jo-Israel, bed ni en japiny moro kata ja-Israel.
20 Kik ucham gima olos gi thowi. Kamoro amora mudakie nyaka une ni uchamo makati ma ok oketie thowi.”
In your houses, do not eat anything that has yeast in it during those seven days.”
21 Eka Musa noluongo jodong Israel duto mowachonegi niya, “Dhiuru mondo ngʼato ka ngʼato oyier nyarombo kata nyadiel ne joode kendo uyangʼ-gi ka utimogo Pasaka.
Then Moses/I summoned all the leaders of the Israeli people. He/I said to them, “Each family should select a lamb and kill it, [in order that you may eat it to celebrate the festival that will be called] ‘Passover’.
22 Eka ukaw oboke mag raywechi ulute remo mar chiayono manie karaya kendo ukir moko ewi sirni mag dhoudi, to moko ukir e sirni mag dhoutu koni gi koni. Kik ngʼato angʼata kuomu wuog oko mar dhoot nyaka okinyi.
Let the lamb’s blood [drain into] a basin. Get a bunch/sprig of (hyssop/a very leafy plant) and dip it in the blood. Then smear some of the blood on the doorposts and the (lintels/beams above the doorways) [of your houses]. The people in each house must all stay inside the house until the next morning.
23 Ka Jehova Nyasaye biro wuotho e piny Misri duto mondo oneg jo-Misri, to obiro neno remo ewi reru kod e bath dhoutu kendo nokal dhoudigo, ok noyie ne janek mondo odonj e uteu mondo onegu.
When Yahweh goes throughout Egypt to kill the [oldest male in each] Egyptian family, he will see the blood on the (lintels/beams of your doorways), and he will [ignore and] pass by those houses. He will not allow the angel who causes people to die to enter your houses and kill [any of] your [oldest sons].
24 “Rituru wechegi kaka chike mochwere nyaka ne tienge mabiro.
You and your descendants must celebrate this festival forever.
25 Ka udonjo e piny ma Jehova Nyasaye biro miyou kaka ne osingorenu, to neuru ni utimo nyasi mar sawoni.
And when you arrive in the land that Yahweh will be giving to you as he promised, you must keep celebrating this ritual [every year].
26 Kendo ka nyithindu nopenju gima tiend sawoni en,
When your children ask you, ‘What does this ritual mean?’,
27 to nyisgiuru ni, ‘En misango mar Pasaka mitimo ni Jehova Nyasaye, nikech nokadho ut jo-Israel e piny Misri konego jo-Misri to oweyo miechwa.’” Eka ji nopodho auma molamo Jehova Nyasaye.
you must tell them, ‘This ritual is [to remember how our ancestors] sacrificed [lambs] on the night that Yahweh’s angel passed by the houses of the Israeli people [when they were] in Egypt. He killed the [oldest males/sons in all] the Egyptian houses, but he spared [the sons in] [MTY] our houses.’” After Moses/I told them this, they all bowed their heads and worshiped [Yahweh].
28 Jo-Israel notimo mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochiko Musa kod Harun.
Then the Israeli people did what Yahweh had told Aaron and Moses/me [to tell them to do].
29 E dier otieno tir Jehova Nyasaye nonego nyithindo ma yawuowi makayo duto mag jo-Misri, kochakore gi kach ruoth Farao mane ni e kom duongʼ nyaka kach joma ni e od twech, kaachiel gi nyithindo makayo duto mag jamni.
At midnight Yahweh killed all the oldest sons of the Egyptian people, all over Egypt. That included the king’s oldest son, the oldest sons of the prisoners in the dungeon/jail, and [the oldest sons of everyone else]. He also killed the oldest males of all the Egyptians’ livestock.
30 Farao kaachiel gi jodonge kod jo-Misri duto nochiewo e dier otieno kendo ne nitie ywak maduongʼ e piny Misri, nikech ne onge ot moro amora e piny Misri mane ngʼato ok othoe.
That night the king, all his officials, and [all the rest of] the Egyptian people awoke [and discovered what had happened]. They wailed loudly all over Egypt, because in every house, someone’s son had died.
31 E otienono Farao ne oluongo Musa kod Harun mowachonegi niya, “Wuoguru gi jo-Israel piyo mondo uwe joga mondo udhi ulam Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachu kaka usekwayo.
That night the king summoned Aaron and Moses/me and said, “You and all the [other] Israeli people, must leave my country [immediately]! Go and worship Yahweh, as you requested!
32 Kawuru jambu kod kweth mag dhou mondo udhigo kaka usewacho kendo an bende lemnauru mondo ayud gweth.”
Take your flocks [of sheep and goats] and herds [of cattle], and leave! And ask Yahweh to bless me, also!”
33 Jo-Misri nokwayo jo-Israel mondo owuog owe pinygi piyo kagiwacho niya, “Ka ok uwuok to waduto wabiro tho!”
Then the Israeli people did as Moses/I had told them. They [went to] their Egyptian [neighbors] and asked them for silver and gold jewelry and clothing.
34 Kuom mano jo-Israel nokawo mogo modwal mapok oketie thowi kendo negitingʼogi e gokgi e sufuriache ka giboyogi gi sukni.
Yahweh caused the Egyptian people to greatly respect the [Israeli] people, so they gave them what they asked for. In that way, they carried away the wealth of the Egyptian people.
35 Jo-Israel notimo kaka Musa ne ochikogi kendo ne gikwayo jo-Misri lewni kod gik molos gi fedha kod dhahabu.
The Egyptians urged the [Israeli] people to leave their country quickly. They said, “[If you do not do that], we will all die!”
36 Jehova Nyasaye nomiyo jo-Misri otimo ngʼwono ne jo-Israel kendo ne gimiyogi gimoro amora mane gikwayogi; kamano e kaka jo-Israel noyako gige jo-Misri.
So the [Israeli] people [prepared to leave at once]. They took the bowls in which they mixed the dough to make bread, and the dough that was in the bowls without any yeast in it, and they wrapped the bowls in their cloaks. They put the bowls on their shoulders [and left].
37 Jo-Israel nowuok Rameses kochomo Sukoth; ne gin ji madirom alufu mia auchiel ka ok okwan mon kod nyithindo.
The Israeli people traveled from Rameses [city] to Succoth [town]. There were about 600,000 men who went, in addition to the women and children.
38 Oganda mamoko mathoth bende nodhi kodgi kaachiel gi kweth mangʼeny mag chiayo ma gin jamni kod kweth mangʼeny mag dhok.
Many other people who were not Israelis went along with them. There were also livestock, the flocks [of sheep and goats] and herds [of cattle].
39 Ne gitedo makati ma ok oketie thowi gi mogo modwal mane giago e piny Misri. Ne ok oketie thowi nikech ne oriembgi gia e piny Misri apoya kendo ne ok giyudo thuolo kata mar tedo chiemo mane ginyalo chamo e kor yo.
On their way, they baked bread with the dough that they carried with them when they had been expelled from Egypt. The dough did not have yeast in it, because they were told to leave Egypt so quickly that they did not have enough time to get food ready to take with them, or enough time to mix yeast in the dough.
40 Jo-Israel nodak e piny Misri kuom higni mia angʼwen gi piero adek.
The Israeli people had lived in Egypt 430 years.
41 Chiengʼ mane higni mia angʼwen gi piero adekgo orumo ema ne oganda Jehova Nyasaye duto owuokie piny Misri.
On the day that those 430 years ended, on that very day, all the tribes of Yahweh’s people left Egypt.
42 Ne en otieno mane Jehova Nyasaye oritogie mondo ogolgie piny Misri. Otieno onogono en otieno moket mondo jo-Israel duto obed kaparo Jehova Nyasaye nyaka ne tienge mabiro.
It was a night when Yahweh (protected/guarded over) them as he brought them out of Egypt. So this same night every year is a night that is dedicated to Yahweh, a night when the Israeli people in every generation [remember how] Yahweh protected our ancestors.
43 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa gi Harun niya, “Magi e chike monego urit ka utimo Pasaka. “Jopinje mamoko kik chame.
Then Yahweh said this to Aaron and Moses/me: “These are my instructions about the Passover ritual: Do not let foreigners eat [the Passover meal]. But any male slaves that you have bought may eat it after you have circumcised them.
44 Misumba moro amora mungʼiewo nyalo chame to mana bangʼ kusetere nyangu,
45 to wendo moro mobuoro iru kata jatichu ok onego chame.
Do not let people who are living among you temporarily, or servants whom you have hired, eat [the Passover meal].
46 “Ring chiayo mar misango nyaka cham mana e ot achiel, kik lemo kata achiel gol oko mar odno kendo kik utur choke moro amora.
Each family must eat the Passover meal inside their own house. Do not take any of the food outside the house. And do not break any of the bones of the lamb that is sacrificed.
47 Oganda duto mar jo-Israel nyaka tim sawoni.
All the Israeli people must celebrate this festival.
48 “Koponi nitie japiny moro modak e dieru modwaro timo ne Jehova Nyasaye Pasaka, to en kaachiel gi joge machwo nyaka tergi nyangu, eka onyalo riwore kodu e timo sawoni bangʼe nokwane kaka achiel kuom jo-Israel. Onge ngʼato angʼata madichwo ma ok oter nyangu ma oyiene chamo sawo mar Pasakani.
When someone from another country comes to live with you and wants to celebrate the Passover Festival, circumcise all the males in his household. Then they may eat the Passover meal, and you should treat those people as though they were born as Israelis. But do not allow men who have not been circumcised to eat the Passover meal.
49 Chikni oket ne jo-Israel duto gi jopinje mamoko duto machalre.”
These rules apply to people who were born as Israelis and to foreigners who come and live among you.”
50 Jo-Israel duto notimo gik moko duto mane Jehova Nyasaye ochiko Musa gi Harun,
All the Israeli people obeyed Aaron and Moses/me and did what Yahweh had commanded.
51 mi chiengʼno ema Jehova Nyasaye nogolo jo-Israel e piny Misri kochan-gi e dhoutgi.
On that very day Yahweh brought all the tribes of the Israeli people out of Egypt.
