Exodus 13
1 Then the LORD said to Moses,
爰にヱホバ、モーセに告ていひたまひけるは
2 “Consecrate to Me every firstborn male. The firstborn from every womb among the Israelites belongs to Me, both of man and beast.”
人と畜とを論ず凡てイスラエルの子孫の中の始て生れたる首生をば皆聖別て我に歸せしむべし是わが所屬なればなり
3 So Moses told the people, “Remember this day, the day you came out of Egypt, out of the house of slavery; for the LORD brought you out of it by the strength of His hand. And nothing leavened shall be eaten.
モーセ民にいひけるは汝等エジプトを出で奴隸たる家を出るこの日を誌えよヱホバ能ある手をもて汝等を此より導きいだしたまへばなり酵いれたるパンを食ふべからず
4 Today, in the month of Abib, you are leaving.
アビブの月の此日なんぢら出づ
5 And when the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Hivites, and Jebusites—the land He swore to your fathers that He would give you, a land flowing with milk and honey—you shall keep this service in this month.
ヱホバ汝を導きてカナン人ヘテ人アモリ人ヒビ人エブス人の地すなはちその汝にあたへんと汝の先祖たちに誓ひたまひし彼乳と蜜の流るる地に至らしめたまはん時なんぢ此月に是禮式を守るべし
6 For seven days you are to eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day there shall be a feast to the LORD.
七日の間なんぢ酵いれぬパンを食ひ第七日にヱホバの節筵をなすべし
7 Unleavened bread shall be eaten during those seven days. Nothing leavened may be found among you, nor shall leaven be found anywhere within your borders.
酵いれぬパンを七日くらふべし酵いれたるパンを汝の所におくなかれ又汝の境の中にて汝の許にパン酵をおくなかれ
8 And on that day you are to explain to your son, ‘This is because of what the LORD did for me when I came out of Egypt.’
汝その日に汝の子に示して言べし是は吾がエジプトより出る時にヱホバの我に爲したまひし事のためなりと
9 It shall be a sign for you on your hand and a reminder on your forehead that the Law of the LORD is to be on your lips. For with a mighty hand the LORD brought you out of Egypt.
斯是をなんぢの手におきて記號となし汝の目の間におきて記號となしてヱホバの法律を汝の口に在しむべし其はヱホバ能ある手をもて汝をエジプトより導きいだしたまへばなり
10 Therefore you shall keep this statute at the appointed time year after year.
是故に年々その期にいたりてこの例をまもるべし
11 And after the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites and gives it to you, as He swore to you and your fathers,
ヱホバ汝となんぢの先祖等に誓ひたまひしごとく汝をカナン人の地にみちびきて之を汝に與へたまはん時
12 you are to present to the LORD the firstborn male of every womb. All the firstborn males of your livestock belong to the LORD.
汝凡て始て生れたる者及び汝の有る畜の初生を悉く分ちてヱホバに歸せしむべし男牡はヱホバの所屬なるべし
13 You must redeem every firstborn donkey with a lamb, and if you do not redeem it, you are to break its neck. And every firstborn of your sons you must redeem.
又驢馬の初子は皆羔羊をもて贖ふべしもし贖はずばその頸を折るべし汝の子等の中の長子なる人はみな贖ふべし
14 In the future, when your son asks you, ‘What does this mean?’ you are to tell him, ‘With a mighty hand the LORD brought us out of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
後に汝の子汝に問て是は何なると言ばこれに言べしヱホバ能ある手をもて我等をエジプトより出し奴隸たりし家より出したまへり
15 And when Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us go, the LORD killed every firstborn in the land of Egypt, both of man and beast. This is why I sacrifice to the LORD the firstborn male of every womb, but I redeem all the firstborn of my sons.’
當時パロ剛愎にして我等を去しめざりしかばヱホバ、エジプトの國の中の長子たる者を人の長子より畜の初生まで盡く殺したまへり是故に始めて生れし牡を盡くヱホバに犠牲に献ぐ但しわが子等の中の長子は之を贖ふなり
16 So it shall serve as a sign on your hand and a symbol on your forehead, for with a mighty hand the LORD brought us out of Egypt.”
是をなんぢの手におきて號となし汝の目の間におきて誌となすべしヱホバ能ある手をもて我等をエジプトより導きいだしたまひたればなりと
17 When Pharaoh let the people go, God did not lead them along the road through the land of the Philistines, though it was shorter. For God said, “If the people face war, they might change their minds and return to Egypt.”
偖パロ民をさらしめし時ペリシテ人の地は近かりけれども神彼等をみちびきて其地を通りたまはざりき其は民戰爭を見ば悔てエジプトに歸るならんと神おもひたまひたればなり
18 So God led the people around by the way of the wilderness toward the Red Sea. And the Israelites left the land of Egypt arrayed for battle.
神紅海の曠野の道より民を導きたまふイスラエルの子孫行伍をたててエジプトの國より出づ
19 Moses took the bones of Joseph with him because Joseph had made the sons of Israel swear a solemn oath when he said, “God will surely attend to you, and then you must carry my bones with you from this place.”
其時モーセはヨセフの骨を携ふ是はヨセフ神かならず汝らを眷みたまふべければ汝らわが骨を此より携へ出づべしといひてイスラエルの子孫を固く誓せたればなり
20 They set out from Succoth and camped at Etham on the edge of the wilderness.
斯てかれらスコテより進みて曠野の端なるエタム比幕張す
21 And the LORD went before them in a pillar of cloud to guide their way by day, and in a pillar of fire to give them light by night, so that they could travel by day or night.
ヱホバかれらの前に往たまひ晝は雲の柱をもてかれらを導き夜は火の柱をもて彼らを照して晝夜往すすましめたまふ
22 Neither the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire by night left its place before the people.
民の前に晝は雲の柱を除きたまはず夜は火の柱をのぞきたまはず
