Exodus 12
1 Now the LORD said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt,
| وَخَاطَبَ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى وَهَرُونَ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ قَائِلاً: | ١ |
2 “This month is the beginning of months for you; it shall be the first month of your year.
| «مُنْذُ الآنَ يَكُونُ لَكُمْ هَذَا الشَّهْرُ رَأْسَ الشُّهُورِ وَأَوَّلَ شُهُورِ السَّنَةِ. | ٢ |
3 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.
| خَاطِبَا كُلَّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلَيْنِ: عَلَى كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ فِي الْعَاشِرِ مِنْ هَذَا الشَّهْرِ حَمَلاً لِعَائِلَتِهِ، وَفْقاً لِبُيُوتِ الْآبَاءِ، حَمَلاً لِكُلِّ عَائِلَةٍ. | ٣ |
4 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.
| وَإِنْ كَانَ الْبَيْتُ صَغِيراً لَا يَسْتَهْلِكُ حَمَلاً كَامِلاً، يَتَقَاسَمُهُ هُوَ وَجَارُهُ الْقَرِيبُ مِنْهُ بِحَسَبِ عَدَدِ الأَشْخَاصِ الْمَوْجُودِينَ هُنَاكَ، بِمِقْدَارِ مَا يَسْتَطِيعُ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ أَنْ يَأْكُلَهُ مِنَ الْحَمَلِ. | ٤ |
5 Your lamb must be an unblemished year-old male, and you may take it from the sheep or the goats.
| وَيَجِبُ أَنْ يَكُونَ الْحَمَلُ ذَكَراً ابْنَ سَنَةٍ، خَالِياً مِنْ كُلِّ عَيْبٍ، تَنْتَقُونَهُ مِنَ الْخِرْفَانِ أَوِ الْمَعِيزِ. | ٥ |
6 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.
| وَيَكُونُ عِنْدَكُمْ مَحْفُوظاً حَتَّى الْيَوْمِ الرَّابِعَ عَشَرَ مِنْ هَذَا الشَّهْرِ. ثُمَّ يَقُومُ كُلُّ جُمْهُورِ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِذَبْحِ الْحُمْلانِ عِنْدَ الْمَسَاءِ. | ٦ |
7 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.
| وَيَأْخُذُونَ الدَّمَ وَيَضَعُونَهُ عَلَى الْقَائِمَتَيْنِ وَالْعَتَبَةِ الْعُلْيَا فِي الْبُيُوتِ الَّتِي يَأْكُلُونَهُ فِيهَا. | ٧ |
8 They are to eat the meat that night, roasted over the fire, along with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
| ثُمَّ فِي نَفْسِ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ يَتَنَاوَلُونَ اللَّحْمَ مَشْوِيًّا بِالنَّارِ مَعَ فَطِيرٍ، يَأْكُلُونَهُ مَعَ أَعْشَابٍ مُرَّةٍ. | ٨ |
9 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.
| لَا تَأْكُلُوا مِنْهُ نِيئاً أَوْ مَسْلُوقاً، بَلْ مَشْوِيًّا بِنَارٍ، رَأْسَهُ مَعَ أَكَارِعِهِ وَجَوْفِهِ. | ٩ |
10 Do not leave any of it until morning; before the morning you must burn up any part that is left over.
| وَلا تُبْقُوا مِنْهُ إِلَى الصَّبَاحِ، بَلْ تُحْرِقُونَ كُلَّ مَا تَبَقَّى مِنْهُ إِلَى الصَّبَاحِ بِالنَّارِ. | ١٠ |
11 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.
| تَأْكُلُونَهُ بِعَجَلَةٍ وَأَحْقَاؤُكُمْ مَشْدُودَةٌ، وَأَحْذِيَتُكُمْ فِي أَرْجُلِكُمْ، وَعِصِيُّكُمْ فِي أَيْدِيكُمْ. فَيَكُونُ هَذَا فِصْحاً لِلرَّبِّ. | ١١ |
12 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.
| فَفِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ أَجْتَازُ فِي بِلادِ مِصْرَ وَأَقْتُلُ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِيهَا مِنَ النَّاسِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ وَأُجْرِي قَضَاءً عَلَى كُلِّ آلِهَةِ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ. أَنَا هُوَ الرَّبُّ. | ١٢ |
13 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.
| أَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَإِنَّ الدَّمَ الَّذِي عَلَى بُيُوتِكُمُ الْمُقِيمِينَ فِيهَا يَكُونُ الْعَلامَةَ الَّتِي تُمَيِّزُكُمْ، فَأَرَى الدَّمَ وَأَعْبُرُ عَنْكُمْ، فَلا تَنْزِلُ بِكُمْ بَلِيَّةُ الْهَلاكِ حِينَ أَبْتَلِي بِها أَرْضَ مِصْرَ. | ١٣ |
14 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.
| وَيَكُونُ لَكُمْ هَذَا الْيَوْمُ تَذْكَاراً تَحْتَفِلُونَ بِهِ عِيداً لِلرَّبِّ، فَرِيضَةً أَبَدِيَّةً تَحْتَفِلُونَ بِهِ فِي أَجْيَالِكُمْ. | ١٤ |
15 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.
| سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ تَحْتَفِلُونَ، تَأْكُلُونَ فِيهَا فَطِيراً، تُخْلُونَ بُيُوتَكُمْ مِنَ الْخَمِيرِ فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَوَّلِ، فَإِنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ أَكَلَ خَمِيراً فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَوَّلِ إِلَى الْيَوْمِ السَّابِعِ، تُبَادُ تِلْكَ النَّفْسُ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٥ |
16 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.
| وَتُقِيمُونَ فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَوَّلِ حَفْلاً مُقَدَّساً، وَكَذَلِكَ فِي الْيَوْمِ السَّابِعِ. لَا يُجْرَى فِيهِمَا عَمَلٌ مَا إلّا تَجْهِيزُ طَعَامِ الأَكْلِ. هَذَا كُلُّ مَا تَعْمَلُونَهُ. | ١٦ |
17 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.
| وَتَحْتَفِلُونَ بِعِيدِ الْفَطِيرِ، لأَنَّنِي فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ عَيْنِهِ أَخْرَجْتُ أَجْنَادَكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، فَاحْتَفِلُوا بِهَذَا الْيَوْمِ فَرِيضَةً أَبَدِيَّةً فِي أَجْيَالِكُمُ الْمُقْبِلَةِ. | ١٧ |
18 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.
| وَمُنْذُ مَسَاءِ الْيَوْمِ الرَّابِعَ عَشَرَ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ الأَوَّلِ وَحَتَّى مَسَاءِ الْيَوْمِ الْحَادِي وَالعِشْرِينَ مِنْهُ تَأْكُلُونَ فَطِيراً. | ١٨ |
19 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.
| سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ تَخْلُو بُيُوتُكُمْ مِنَ الْخَمِيرِ فَإِنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ أَكَلَ خُبْزاً مُخْتَمِراً يُبَادُ مِنْ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، الْغَرِيبُ وَالمُوَاطِنُ عَلَى حَدٍّ سَوَاءَ. | ١٩ |
20 You are not to eat anything leavened; eat unleavened bread in all your homes.”
| لَا تَأْكُلُوا شَيْئاً مُخْتَمِراً، بَلْ فِي كُلِّ مَسَاكِنِكُمْ تَأْكُلُونَ فَطِيراً». | ٢٠ |
21 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.
| ثُمَّ اسْتَدْعَى مُوسَى كُلَّ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «اذْهَبُوا وَانْتَقُوا حُمْلاناً بِحَسَبِ عَائِلاتِكُمْ وَاذْبَحُوا حَمَلَ الْفِصْحِ. | ٢١ |
22 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.
| ثُمَّ خُذُوا بَاقَةَ زُوفَا وَاغْمِسُوهَا فِي الدَّمِ الَّذِي تَصَفَّى فِي الإِنَاءِ وَاطْلُوا بِهِ عَتَبَةَ الْبَابِ الْعُلْيَا وَالْقَائِمَتَيْنِ، وَلا يَخْرُجُ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ حَتَّى الصَّبَاحِ. | ٢٢ |
23 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.
| لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ سَيَجْتَازُ لَيْلاً لِيُهْلِكَ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ. فَحِينَ يَرَى الدَّمَ عَلَى الْعَتَبَةِ الْعُلْيَا وَالْقَائِمَتَيْنِ يَعْبُرُ عَنِ الْبَابِ وَلا يَدَعُ الْمُهْلِكَ يَدْخُلُ بُيُوتَكُمْ لِيَضْرِبَكُمْ. | ٢٣ |
24 And you are to keep this command as a permanent statute for you and your descendants.
| فَتُمَارِسُونَ هَذَا الأَمْرَ فَرِيضَةً لَكُمْ وَلأَوْلادِكُمْ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ٢٤ |
25 When you enter the land that the LORD will give you as He promised, you are to keep this service.
| وَعِنْدَمَا تَدْخُلُونَ الأَرْضَ الَّتِي وَعَدَ الرَّبُّ أَنْ يَهَبَهَا لَكُمْ، فَإِنَّكُمْ تُمَارِسُونَ هَذِهِ الْفَرِيضَةَ. | ٢٥ |
26 When your children ask you, ‘What does this service mean to you?’
| وَيَكُونُ حِينَ يَسْأَلُكُمْ أَبْنَاؤُكُمْ: مَاذَا تَعْنِي هَذِهِ الْفَرِيضَةُ لَكُمْ؟ | ٢٦ |
27 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.
| تُجِيبُونَهُمْ آنَئِذٍ: إِنَّهَا ذَبِيحَةُ فِصْحٍ لِلرَّبِّ الَّذِي عَبَرَ عَنْ بُيُوتِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي مِصْرَ عِنْدَمَا أَهْلَكَ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ، وَأَنْقَذَ بُيُوتَنَا». فَحَنَى الشَّعْبُ رُؤُوسَهُمْ سَاجِدِينَ. | ٢٧ |
28 And the Israelites went and did just what the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron.
| فَمَضَى بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ وَفَعَلُوا تَمَاماً كَمَا أَمَرَ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى وَهَرُونَ. | ٢٨ |
29 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.
| وَفِي مُنْتَصَفِ اللَّيْلِ أَهْلَكَ الرَّبُّ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي بِلادِ مِصْرَ، مِنْ بِكْرِ فِرْعَوْنَ الْمُتَرَبِّعِ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ إِلَى بِكْرِ الْحَبِيسِ فِي السِّجْنِ، وَأَبْكَارَ الْبَهَائِمِ جَمِيعاً أَيْضاً. | ٢٩ |
30 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.
| فَاسْتَيْقَظَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَحَاشِيَتُهُ وَجَمِيعُ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ وَإذَا عَوِيلٌ عَظِيمٌ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، لأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُوْجَدْ بَيْتٌ لَيْسَ فِيهِ مَيْتٌ. | ٣٠ |
31 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.
| فَاسْتَدْعَى مُوسَى وَهَرُونَ لَيْلاً قَائِلاً: «قُومُوا وَاخْرُجُوا مِنْ بَيْنِ الشَّعْبِ أَنْتُمَا وَبَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَانْطَلِقُوا اعْبُدُوا الرَّبَّ كَمَا طَلَبْتُمْ، | ٣١ |
32 Take your flocks and herds as well, just as you have said, and depart! And bless me also.”
| وَخُذُوا مَعَكُمْ غَنَمَكُمْ وَبَقَرَكُمْ كَمَا سَأَلْتُمْ وَامْضُوا وَبَارِكُونِي أَيْضاً». | ٣٢ |
33 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!”
| وَأَلَحَّ الْمِصْرِيُّونَ عَلَى الشَّعْبِ لِيُسْرِعُوا فِي الارْتِحَالِ عَنِ الْبِلادِ قَائِلِينَ: «لِئَلّا نَمُوتَ جَمِيعاً». | ٣٣ |
34 So the people took their dough before it was leavened, carrying it on their shoulders in kneading bowls wrapped in clothing.
| فَصَرَّ الشَّعْبُ فِي ثِيَابِهِمْ مَعَاجِنَهُمْ وَعَجِينَهُمْ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَخْتَمِرَ، وَحَمَلُوهَا عَلَى أَكْتَافِهِمْ، | ٣٤ |
35 Furthermore, the Israelites acted on Moses’ word and asked the Egyptians for articles of silver and gold, and for clothing.
| وَطَلَبُوا مِنَ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ آنِيَةَ فِضَّةٍ وَذَهَباً وَثِيَاباً بِحَسَبِ قَوْلِ مُوسَى. | ٣٥ |
36 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.
| وَجَعَلَ الرَّبُّ الشَّعْبَ يَحْظَى بِرِضَى الْمِصْرِيِّينَ، فَأَعْطَوْهُمْ كُلَّ مَا طَلَبُوهُ، فَغَنِمُوا مِنَ الْمِصْرِيِّينَ. | ٣٦ |
37 The Israelites journeyed from Rameses to Succoth with about 600,000 men on foot, besides women and children.
| وَارْتَحَلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ رَعَمْسِيسَ إِلَى سُكُّوتَ فَكَانُوا نَحْوَ سِتِّ مِئَةِ أَلْفٍ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ المُشَاةِ مَاعَدَا النِّسَاءَ وَالأَوْلادَ. | ٣٧ |
38 And a mixed multitude also went up with them, along with great droves of livestock, both flocks and herds.
| وَكَذَلِكَ انْضَمَّ إِلَيْهِمْ حَشْدٌ كَبِيرٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ، مَعَ غَنَمٍ وَمَوَاشٍ وَقُطْعَانٍ كَثِيرَةٍ. | ٣٨ |
39 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.
| ثُمَّ خَبَزُوا الْعَجِينَ الَّذِي أَخْرَجُوهُ مَعَهُمْ مِنْ مِصْرَ خُبْزَ مَلَّةٍ، لأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ مُخْتَمِراً، إذْ أَنَّهُمْ طُرِدُوا مِنْ مِصْرَ وَلَمْ يَقْدِرُوا أَنْ يَتَأَخَّرُوا فَمَا أَعَدُّوا لأَنْفُسِهِمْ زَاداً. | ٣٩ |
40 Now the duration of the Israelites’ stay in Egypt was 430 years.
| وَكَانَتْ مُدَّةُ غُرْبَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّتِي أَقَامُوهَا فِي مِصْرَ أَرْبَعَ مِئَةٍ وَثَلاثِينَ سَنَةً. | ٤٠ |
41 At the end of the 430 years, to the very day, all the LORD’s divisions went out of the land of Egypt.
| وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الأَخِيرِ بِالذَّاتِ، فِي خِتَامِ أَرْبَعِ مِئَةٍ وَثَلاثِينَ سَنَةً خَرَجَ جَمِيعُ أَجْنَادِ الرَّبِّ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ. | ٤١ |
42 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.
| هِيَ لَيْلَةٌ تُكَرَّسُ لِلرَّبِّ إذْ أَخْرَجَهُمْ فِيهَا مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ. هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةُ هِيَ لِلرَّبِّ، يُكَرِّسُهَا بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي جَمِيعِ أَجْيَالِهِمْ. | ٤٢ |
43 And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of the Passover: No foreigner is to eat of it.
| وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى وَهَرُونَ: «هَذِهِ هِيَ مَرَاسِيمُ الْفِصْحِ: لَا يَأْكُلُ غَرِيبٌ مِنْهُ. | ٤٣ |
44 But any slave who has been purchased may eat of it, after you have circumcised him.
| كُلُّ عَبْدٍ مُشْتَرَى بِفِضَّةٍ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ بَعْدَ أَنْ تَخْتِنَهُ. | ٤٤ |
45 A temporary resident or hired hand shall not eat the Passover.
| النَّزِيلُ وَالأَجِيرُ لَا يَأْكُلانِ مِنْهُ. | ٤٥ |
46 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.
| يُؤْكَلُ فِي بَيْتٍ وَاحِدٍ فَلا تَحْمِلْ لَحْماً إِلَى خَارِجِ الْمَنْزِلِ، وَلا تَكْسِرْ مِنْهُ عَظْماً. | ٤٦ |
47 The whole congregation of Israel must celebrate it.
| وَعَلَى كُلِّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنْ تَحْتَفِلَ بِهِ. | ٤٧ |
48 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.
| وَإذَا عَزَمَ غَرِيبٌ مُقِيمٌ بَيْنَكُمْ أَنْ يَحْتَفِلَ بِفِصْحِ الرَّبِّ فَلْيُخْتَنْ كُلُّ ذَكَرٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ، ثُمَّ يَحْتَفِلُ بِهِ، فَيَكُونُ آنَئِذٍ كَمَوْلُودِ الأَرْضِ. لَا يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ أَيُّ ذَكَرٍ أَغْلَفَ. | ٤٨ |
49 The same law shall apply to both the native and the foreigner who resides among you.”
| فَتَسُودُ هَذِهِ الشَّرِيعَةُ عَلَى الْمُوَاطِنِ وَالدَّخِيلِ الْمُقِيمِ بَيْنَكُمْ». | ٤٩ |
50 Then all the Israelites did this—they did just as the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron.
| فَفَعَلَ جَمِيعُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ تَمَاماً كَمَا أَمَرَ الرَّبُّ مُوسَى وَهَرُونَ. | ٥٠ |
51 And on that very day the LORD brought the Israelites out of the land of Egypt by their divisions.
| فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ عَيْنِهِ أَخْرَجَ الرَّبُّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ بِحَسَبِ فِرَقِ عَشَائِرِهِمْ. | ٥١ |
