Wuok 13

1 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

2 “Nyathi ka nyathi madichwo makayo nyaka walna. Nyak mokwongo mar nyodo e kind jo-Israel en mara, bed ni en dhano kata chiayo.”

Sanctify to me every first-born, first produced, opening every womb among the children of Israel both of man and beast: it is mine.

3 Eka Musa nowacho ne ogandano niya, “Paruru odiechiengni, chiengʼ mane uwuokie piny Misri, piny mane ubedoe wasumbini, nikech Jehova Nyasaye nogolou e pinyno gi lwedo maratego. Kik ucham gimoro amora moketie thowi.

And Moses said to the people, Remember this day, in which ye came forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, for with a strong hand the Lord brought you forth thence; and leaven shall not be eaten.

4 Kawuono e dwe mar Abib, ema uwuokie.

For on this day ye go forth in the month of new [corn].

5 Ka Jehova Nyasaye okelou e piny jo-Kanaan gi jo-Hiti gi jo-Amor gi jo-Hivi kod jo-Jebus, piny ma nosingore ne kwereu ni nomiu, piny mopongʼ gi chak kod mor kich; to nyaka utim sawoni e dweni:

And it shall come to pass when the Lord thy God shall have brought thee into the land of the Chananites, and the Chettites, and Amorites, and Evites, and Jebusites, and Gergesites, and Pherezites, which he sware to thy fathers to give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou shalt perform this service in this month.

6 Kuom ndalo abiriyo chamuru Makati ma ok oketie thowi kendo chiengʼ mar abiriyo timuru nyasi ni Jehova Nyasaye.

Six days ye shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day is a feast to the Lord.

7 Chamuru makati ma ok oketie thowi kuom ndalo abiriyogo; gimoro amora man-gi thowi kik yudi e kindu kata e pinyu duto.

Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread; nothing leavened shall be seen with thee, neither shalt thou have leaven in all thy borders.

8 Chiengʼno wachne wuodi ni, ‘Atimo ma nikech gima Jehova Nyasaye notimona kane awuok e piny Misri.’

And thou shalt tell thy son in that day, saying, Therefore the Lord dealt thus with me, as I was going out of Egypt.

9 Raparni biro bedonu kaka ranyisi e lwetu kendo e lela wangʼu ni chik Jehova Nyasaye nyaka bed e dhou kinde duto, Jehova Nyasaye nogolou e piny Misri gi lwete maratego.

And it shall be to thee a sign upon thy hand and a memorial before thine eyes, that the law of the Lord may be in thy mouth, for with a strong hand the Lord God brought thee out of Egypt.

10 Rit chikni e ndalo mowal higa ka higa.

And preserve ye this law according to the times of the seasons, from year to year.

11 “Bangʼ ka Jehova Nyasaye osekelou e piny jo-Kanaan mi omiyougo, kaka ne osingo ka okwongʼorenu kaachiel gi kwereu,

And it shall come to pass when the Lord thy God shall bring thee into the land of the Chananites, as he sware to thy fathers, and shall give it thee,

12 to nyaka uchiw ni Jehova Nyasaye nyak mokwongo mar nyodo. Chiayo ka chiayo madichwo makayo gin mag Jehova Nyasaye.

that thou shalt set apart every [offspring] opening the womb, the males to the Lord, every one that opens the womb out of the herds or among thy cattle, as many as thou shalt have: thou shalt sanctify the males to the Lord.

13 Nyaka uwar nyathi punda ka nyathi punda mokwong nywol ka uchiwo nyarombo kare, to ka ok iware, to tur ngʼute. Waruru kayo duto mag yawuotu.

Every [offspring] opening the womb of the ass thou shalt change for a sheep; and if thou wilt not change it, thou shalt redeem it: every first-born of man of thy sons shalt thou redeem.

14 “E kinde mabiro, ka wuodi nopenji ni, ‘Ma to nyiso angʼo?’ To nyise ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye nogolowa e piny Misri gi lwete maratego kama ne wabede wasumbini.

And if thy son should ask thee hereafter, saying, What is this? then thou shalt say to him, With a strong hand the Lord brought us out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

15 Kane Farao kuom wich teko mare otamore weyowa mondo wadhi, Jehova Nyasaye nonego nyithindo makayo duto mag dhano gi mag jamni, e piny Misri. Ma emomiyo atimo ne Jehova Nyasaye misango gi nyithind jamni machwo makayo, to wawaro yawuotwa kwachiwo gik moko kargi.’

And when Pharao hardened [his heart so as not] to send us away, he slew every first-born in the land of Egypt, both the first-born of man and the first-born of beast; therefore do I sacrifice every [offspring] that opens the womb, the males to the Lord, and every first-born of my sons I will redeem.

16 Kendo obiro bedoni kaka ranyisi e lweti kendo kido e lela wangʼi ni Jehova Nyasaye nogolowa e piny Misri gi lwete maratego.”

And it shall be for a sign upon thy hand, and immovable before thine eyes, for with a strong hand the Lord brought thee out of Egypt.

17 Kane Farao oweyo ogandano odhi, Nyasaye ne ok oweyogi giluwo yo mangʼado e piny jo-Filistia, kata obedo ni yorno ne ngʼado machiegni. Nimar Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Ka jogi oromo gi lweny, to ginyalo loko pachgi mi gidog e piny Misri.”

And when Pharao sent forth the people, God led them not by the way of the land of the Phylistines, because it was near; for God said, Lest at any time the people repent when they see war, and return to Egypt.

18 Omiyo Nyasaye notelonegi ma giluwo yo malworo thim mochomo Nam Makwar. Jo-Israel nowuok e piny Misri ka oikore ne lweny.

And God led the people round by the way to the wilderness, to the Red Sea: and in the fifth generation the children of Israel went up out of the land of Egypt.

19 Musa nokawo choke Josef ka nowuok nimar Josef noketo yawuot Israel osingore ka kwongʼore. Nowacho niya, “Nyasaye biro resou adier, bangʼe nyaka utingʼ chokena ka ua ka.”

And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him, for he had solemnly adjured the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones hence with you.

20 Kane gisewuok Sukoth, ne gibworo Etham e lak thim.

And the children of Israel departed from Socchoth, and encamped in Othom by the wilderness.

21 Godiechiengʼ Jehova Nyasaye netelonegi gi bor polo mondo otelnegi e yorgi kendo gotieno notelonegi gi ligek mach mondo omigi ler, mondo mi negiwuothi odiechiengʼ kata otieno.

And God led them, in the day by a pillar of cloud, to show them the way, and in the night by a pillar of fire.

22 Boche mag polo mane otelonegi godiechiengʼ kata ligek mach mane otelonegi gotieno ne ok owuok kama ne entiere e nyim ogandano.

And the pillar of cloud failed not by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, before all the people.
