Wuok 13

1 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,

And YHWH speaks 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 firstborn, opening any womb among the sons of Israel, among man and among 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 says to the people, “Remember this day [in] which you have gone out from Egypt, from the house of servants, for by strength of hand YHWH has brought you out from this, and anything fermented is not eaten;

4 Kawuono e dwe mar Abib, ema uwuokie.

you are going out today, in the month of Abib.

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 has been, when YHWH brings you to the land of the Canaanite, and of the Hittite, and of the Amorite, and of the Hivite, and of the Jebusite, which He has sworn to your fathers to give to you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you have done this service in this month.

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

Seven days you eat unleavened things, and in the seventh day [is] a celebration to YHWH;

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

unleavened things are eaten the seven days, and anything fermented is not seen with you; indeed, leaven is not seen with you in all your border.

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

And you have declared to your son in that day, saying, [It is] because of what YHWH did to me, in my going out from 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 has been to you for a sign on your hand, and for a memorial between your eyes, so that the Law of YHWH is in your mouth, for by a strong hand YHWH has brought you out from Egypt;

10 Rit chikni e ndalo mowal higa ka higa.

and you have kept this statute at its appointed time from days to days.

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

And it has been, when YHWH brings you to the land of the Canaanite as He has sworn to you and to your fathers, and has given it to you,

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

that you have caused everyone opening a womb to pass over to YHWH, and every firstling—the increase of beasts which you have: the males [are] YHWH’s.

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.

And every firstling of a donkey you ransom with a lamb, and if you do not ransom [it], then you have beheaded it; and you ransom every firstborn of man among your sons.

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 it has been, when your son asks you hereafter, saying, What [is] this? That you have said to him, By strength of hand YHWH has brought us out from Egypt, from a house of servants;

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.’

indeed, it comes to pass, when Pharaoh has been pained to send us away, that YHWH slays every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of man even to the firstborn of beast; therefore I am sacrificing to YHWH all opening a womb who [are] males, and I ransom every firstborn of my sons;

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 has been for a token on your hand, and for frontlets between your eyes, for by strength of hand YHWH has brought us 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 it comes to pass in Pharaoh’s sending the people away, that God has not led them the way of the land of the Philistines, for it [is] near; for God said, “Lest the people sigh in their seeing war, and have turned back toward 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 turns around the people the way of the wilderness of the Red Sea, and the sons of Israel have gone up by fifties from 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 takes the bones of Joseph with him, for he certainly caused the sons of Israel to swear, saying, “God certainly inspects you, and you have brought up my bones from this [place] with you.”

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

And they journey from Succoth, and encamp in Etham at the extremity of 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 YHWH is going before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them in the way, and by night in a pillar of fire, to give light to them, to go by day and by night;

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

He does not remove the pillar of the cloud by day, and the pillar of the fire by night, [from] before the people.
