1 Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ne Musa niya,
Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], 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 all the firstborn, whatever opens the womb among the children of Israel [God prevails], both of man and of animal. 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.
Moses [Drawn out] said to the people, “Remember this day, in which you came out of Egypt [Abode of slavery], out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand Adonai brought you out from this place. No leavened bread shall be eaten.
4 Kawuono e dwe mar Abib, ema uwuokie.
Today you go out in the month 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:
It shall be, when Adonai shall bring you into the land of the Canaanite [Descendant of Humbled], and the Hittite [Descendant of Trembling fear], and the Amorite [Descendants of Talkers], and the Hivite [Wicked], and the Jebusite [Descendants of Thresher], which he swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall keep this aboda ·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 shall eat matzah ·unleavened bread·, and in the seventh day shall be a feast to Adonai.”
7 Chamuru makati ma ok oketie thowi kuom ndalo abiriyogo; gimoro amora man-gi thowi kik yudi e kindu kata e pinyu duto.
Unleavened bread shall be eaten throughout the seven days; and no leavened bread shall be seen with you. No yeast shall be seen with you, within all your borders.
8 Chiengʼno wachne wuodi ni, ‘Atimo ma nikech gima Jehova Nyasaye notimona kane awuok e piny Misri.’
You shall tell your son in that day, saying, “It is because of that which Adonai did for me when I came out of Egypt [Abode of slavery].”
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.
It shall be for a sign to you on your hand, and for a memorial between your eyes, that Adonai’s Torah ·Teaching· may be in your mouth; for with a strong hand Adonai has brought you out of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
10 Rit chikni e ndalo mowal higa ka higa.
You shall therefore keep this regulation in its season from year to year.
11 “Bangʼ ka Jehova Nyasaye osekelou e piny jo-Kanaan mi omiyougo, kaka ne osingo ka okwongʼorenu kaachiel gi kwereu,
“It shall be, when Adonai shall bring you into the land of the Canaanite [Descendant of Humbled], as he swore to you and to your fathers, and shall give it you,
12 to nyaka uchiw ni Jehova Nyasaye nyak mokwongo mar nyodo. Chiayo ka chiayo madichwo makayo gin mag Jehova Nyasaye.
that you shall set apart to Adonai all that opens the womb, and every firstborn which you have that comes from an animal. The males shall be Adonai’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.
Every firstborn of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb; and if you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck; and you shall redeem all the 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.
It shall be, when your son asks you in time to come, saying, ‘What is this?’ that you shall tell him, ‘By strength of hand Adonai brought us out from Egypt [Abode of slavery], from 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.’
When Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us go, Adonai killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], both the firstborn of man, and the firstborn of animal. Therefore I sacrifice to Adonai all that opens the womb, being males; but all the firstborn of my sons I redeem.’
16 Kendo obiro bedoni kaka ranyisi e lweti kendo kido e lela wangʼi ni Jehova Nyasaye nogolowa e piny Misri gi lwete maratego.”
It shall be for a sign on your hand, and for symbols between your eyes: for by strength of hand Adonai brought us out of Egypt [Abode of slavery].”
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.”
When Pharaoh had let the people go, God didn’t lead them by the way of the land of the Philistines [To roll in dust (As an insult)], although that was near; for God said, “Lest perhaps the people change their minds when they see war, and they teshuvah ·completely return· to Egypt [Abode of slavery];”
18 Omiyo Nyasaye notelonegi ma giluwo yo malworo thim mochomo Nam Makwar. Jo-Israel nowuok e piny Misri ka oikore ne lweny.
but God led the people around by the way of the wilderness by the Sea of Suf [Reed Sea]; and the children of Israel [God prevails] went up armed out of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
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.”
Moses [Drawn out] took the bones of Joseph [May he add] with him, for he had made the children of Israel [God prevails] swear, saying, “God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones away from here with you.”
20 Kane gisewuok Sukoth, ne gibworo Etham e lak thim.
They took their journey from Sukkot, and encamped in Etham, in the edge 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.
Adonai went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, to lead them on their way, and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light, that they might 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.
the pillar of cloud by day, and the pillar of fire by night, didn’t depart from before the people.
