< Exodus 12 >

1 Now the LORD said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt,
BOEIPA loh Moses neh Aaron te Egypt kho ah a voek.
2 “This month is the beginning of months for you; it shall be the first month of your year.
“Tahae hla he nangmih ham hla kungpuei neh kum dongkah hla khuiah khaw nangmih ham lamhma la om ni.
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.
Israel rhaengpuei boeih taengah thui lamtah, 'Tahae kah hla rha dongah tah hlang long he a napa im ham tu pakhat, te pawt atah im pakhat ham tu pakhat tah amamih taengla lo uh saeh.
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.
Tu aka om lakah imkhui a vaitah atah a im neh aka yoei a imben taengah lo saeh. Hlang kah hinglu tarhing neh aka ca tarhing ah tu te boesoep pah.
5 Your lamb must be an unblemished year-old male, and you may take it from the sheep or the goats.
Boiva te a tal a hmabuet, kum khat aka lo ca te tah tuca khaw maae khaw namamih taengla lo uh.
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.
Te phoeiah tahae hla hnin hlai li hil tuemkoi la nangmih taengah om vetih kholaeh ah Israel rhaengpuei hlangping boeih loh te te ngawn uh saeh.
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.
Te phoeiah a thii te lo uh saeh lamtah rhungsut so rhoi neh im kah danglo dongah pae uh saeh. A pum te a khuiah ca uh saeh.
8 They are to eat the meat that night, roasted over the fire, along with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
Maeh te khoyin ah hmai dongkah maehkaeh la ca uh saeh lamtah vaidamding neh ankhaa caak thil uh saeh.
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.
A haeng lam khaw, tui neh a thong tih a hmin te lamkhaw ca uh boeh. Tedae a lu neh a kho, a kotak khaw hmai a kaeh ni na caak eh.
10 Do not leave any of it until morning; before the morning you must burn up any part that is left over.
Te te mincang hil paih boeh, mincang hil aka coih pueng te tah hmai neh hoeh uh.
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.
Te te he tlam he ca uh. Na cinghen yen uh lamtah na khokhom te na kho dongah buenuh. Na conghol te na kut dongah pomuh. BOEIPA kah Yoom he thintawn la ca uh.
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.
Te khoyin ah Egypt khohmuen long ka pah vetih, Egypt kho kah caming boeih tah hlang lamloh rhamsa hil pataeng ka ngawn ni. Te vaengah BOEIPA kamah loh Egypt pathen boeih soah tholhphu ka thung ni.
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.
Thii he nangmih ham im dongah miknoek la om ni. Nangmih taengah thii te ka hmuh vaengah nangmih te kang kang vetih Egypt khohmuen ka ngawn vaengah khaw kutcaihnah tlohthae te nangmih ah om mahpawh.
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.
Te phoeiah he khohnin he nangmih ham poekkoepnah la om saeh. Te vaengah BOEIPA taengah khotue neh lam uh. Na lam uh te na cadilcahma ham kumhal khosing la om saeh.
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.
Hnin rhih khuiah vaidamding ca uh. A cuek hnin ah tolrhu te na im lamloh toeng uh. Tolrhu aka ca boeih tah a hinglu te a cuek hnin lamloh a rhih hnin due Israel lamloh khoe saeh.
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.
A cuek khohnin kah a cim tingtunnah neh a rhih hnin kah a cim tingtunnah te nangmih ham om ni. Te vaengah bitat boeih he saii boel saeh. Tedae nangmih khuikah hinglu boeih loh a caak nawn te amah loh saii mai saeh.
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.
Te khohnin kuelhuelh ah nangmih caempuei te Egypt kho lamloh kang khuen dongah vaidamding te ngaithuen. Te dongah na cadilcahma kah kumhal khosing dongah khaw he khohnin he ngaithuen uh.
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.
Lamhma ah hla sae hnin hlai li hlaem vaeng lamloh tekah hla hnin kul hnin khat hlaem duela vaidamding mah ca uh.
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.
Hnin rhih hil na im ah tolrhu hmu boel saeh. tolrhu aka ca boeih tah yinlai khaw, khohmuen mupoe khaw Israel rhaengpuei lamloh hinglu hnawt pah saeh.
20 You are not to eat anything leavened; eat unleavened bread in all your homes.”
Tolrhu aka nuen boeih tah ca uh boel lamtah na tolrhum boeih ah vaidamding mah ca uh,” a ti nah.
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.
Te phoeiah Moses loh Israel kah a hamca boeih te a khue tih amih te dangrhoek uh laeh, namah huiko ham boiva te namamih loh lo uh lamtah Yoom maeh te ngawn uh laeh.
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.
Te phoeiah pumpiding bong at lo uh lamtah baeldung dongkah thii khuiah nuem uh. Baeldung khuikah thii te danglo so neh rhungsut rhoi dongah hluk uh. Nangmih te hlang pakhat khaw mincang hil a im thohka lamloh moe uh boeh.
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.
Egypt vuek ham BOEIPA loh a pah vaengah danglo dongkah neh rhungsut rhoi dongkah thii te a hmuh vetih a kan ni. Aka vuek te na im thohka la kun ham khaw BOEIPA loh nang te kutcaihnah la n'khueh mahpawh.
24 And you are to keep this command as a permanent statute for you and your descendants.
He ol he namah ham neh na ca ham khaw kumhal kah oltlueh la ngaithuen laeh.
25 When you enter the land that the LORD will give you as He promised, you are to keep this service.
Nangmih taengah a thui vanbangla BOEIPA loh m'paek ham khohmuen la na pawk uh tue om bitni. Te vaengah he kah thothuengnah he ngaithuen uh.
26 When your children ask you, ‘What does this service mean to you?’
Na ca rhoek loh nangmih taengah, “Nangmih kah he mebang thothuengnah nim? aka ti khaw om ni.
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.
Te vaengah, “He tah BOEIPA kah Yoom hmueih ni. Amah loh Egypt kah Israel ca imkhui te a kan dongah Egypt te a vuek tih mamih imkhui te n'huul,’ ti nah,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah pilnam te buluk tih a bawk uh.
28 And the Israelites went and did just what the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron.
A caeh uh phoeiah khaw BOEIPA loh Moses neh Aaron a uen a saii rhoi vanbangla Israel ca rhoek long khaw a saii uh.
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.
Te phoeiah khoyin boengli a pha vaengah BOEIPA loh a ngolkhoel dongah aka ngol Pharaoh caming lamloh tangrhom im kah tamna caming neh rhamsa caming boeih, Egypt khohmuen kah caming boeih te a ngawn.
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.
Te dongah Pharaoh amah neh a sal boeih neh Egypt boeih tah khoyin ah thoo uh. Te vaengah aka duek pawh imkhui a om pawt dongah Egypt ah pangngawlnah muep om.
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.
Amah khoyin ah Moses neh Aaron te a khue tih, “Thoo lamtah ka pilnam lakli lamloh namah neh Israel ca rhoek khaw nong uh laeh. Na thui bangla cet uh lamtah Yahweh te thothueng uh.
32 Take your flocks and herds as well, just as you have said, and depart! And bless me also.”
Na boiva khaw, na saelhung khaw na thui uh bangla khuen uh. Cet uh lamtah kai khaw yoethen m'pae uh,” a ti nah.
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!”
Egypt loh, “Kaimih boeih ka duek uh coeng,” a ti uh. Te dongah amih te khohmuen lamloh tueih paitok ham te pilnam te a cahawh.
34 So the people took their dough before it was leavened, carrying it on their shoulders in kneading bowls wrapped in clothing.
Te dongah pilnam loh a vaidambael dongkah tol a phul hlan a vaidamtlam te a himbai neh a boep uh tih a laengpang dongah a koh uh.
35 Furthermore, the Israelites acted on Moses’ word and asked the Egyptians for articles of silver and gold, and for clothing.
Israel ca rhoek long khaw Moses ol bangla a saii tih Egypt rhoek taengah cak hnopai neh sui hnopai neh himbai te a hoe uh.
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.
BOEIPA loh pilnam te Egypt mikhmuh ah mikdaithen la a khueh coeng dongah a hoe uh bangla Egypt kah te a huul pauh.
37 The Israelites journeyed from Rameses to Succoth with about 600,000 men on foot, besides women and children.
Te vaengah Sukkoth Raamses lamloh Israel ca rhoek aka cet te camoe a hoep phoeiah tongpa rhalkap thawng ya rhuk tluk louh.
38 And a mixed multitude also went up with them, along with great droves of livestock, both flocks and herds.
Namcom khaw amih taengah muep cet uh tih boiva neh saelhung boiva neh bahoeng yet uh.
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.
Egypt lamloh a khuen vaidamtlam te tol a phul pawt dongah vaidamding buh la a kaeng uh. Egypt lamloh a haek uh vaengah uelh ham a coeng pawt dongah amamih ham lampu khaw a saii uh moenih.
40 Now the duration of the Israelites’ stay in Egypt was 430 years.
Israel ca rhoek loh a tolrhum nah tih Egypt ah kho a sak uh te kum ya li neh kum sawmthum lo coeng.
41 At the end of the 430 years, to the very day, all the LORD’s divisions went out of the land of Egypt.
Kum ya li neh kum sawmthum a bawtnah te a pha coeng. Te khohnin kuelhuelh te a pha vaengah tah BOEIPA kah caempuei boeih te Egypt kho lamloh khoe uh.
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.
Tekah haknah hlaem ah BOEIPA loh amih te Egypt kho lamkah a khuen. He khoyin he Israel ca boeih a cadilcahma ham BOEIPA taengkah haknah la om.
43 And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of the Passover: No foreigner is to eat of it.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses neh Aaron te, “Yoom kah khosing he tah, kholong ca boeih long tah te te ca boel saeh.
44 But any slave who has been purchased may eat of it, after you have circumcised him.
Tedae sal boeih khaw tangka neh a lai hlang te na rhet pah coeng atah tah te te ca saeh.
45 A temporary resident or hired hand shall not eat the Passover.
Lampah neh kutloh long khaw te te ca boel saeh.
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.
Im pakhat ah ca saeh. Maeh te imkhui lamloh tol la khuen boel saeh. A rhuh khaw a khuiah paep sak boeh.
47 The whole congregation of Israel must celebrate it.
Israel rhaengpuei boeih loh te te saii saeh.
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.
Na taengah yinlai bakuep tih BOEIPA taengkah Yoom ka saii eh a ti atah tongpa boeih te rhet pah saeh. Te daengah ni te te a saii vaengah nuen van vetih khohmuen mupoe bangla a om eh. Tedae pumdul boeih tah te te ca boel saeh.
49 The same law shall apply to both the native and the foreigner who resides among you.”
Olkhueng he mupoe taeng neh nangmih lakli kah aka bakuep yinlai taengah pakhat la om saeh.
50 Then all the Israelites did this—they did just as the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron.
Te dongah BOEIPA loh a uen tih Moses neh Aaron loh a saii bangla Israel ca rhoek loh boeih a saii uh.
51 And on that very day the LORD brought the Israelites out of the land of Egypt by their divisions.
Te khohnin kuelhuelh ah ni BOEIPA loh Israel ca rhoek te Egypt kho lamloh a caempuei neh a khuen.
