< Exodus 12 >

1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
Antan Moyiz ak Arawon te nan peyi Lejip la, Seyè a di yo:
2 This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.
-Se mwa sa a k'ap premye mwa pou nou nan lanne a. Se limenm k'ap anvan tout lòt mwa yo.
3 Speak unto all the assembly of Israel, saying, On the tenth of this month let them take themselves each a lamb, for a father's house, a lamb for a house.
Pale tout moun pèp Izrayèl la. Di yo: sou dizyèm jou mwa sa a, n'a pran yon ti mouton pou chak fanmi, tande byen wi, yon ti mouton pou chak kay.
4 And if the household be too small for a lamb, let him and his neighbour next unto his house take [it] according to the number of the souls; each according to [the measure] of his eating shall ye count for the lamb.
Si pa gen kont moun nan kay la pou manje tout ti mouton an, se pou yo mete tèt yo ansanm ak vwazinaj ki pi pre kay la. N'a kalkile kantite moun ki nesesè pou manje mouton an, sa chak moun ka manje.
5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a yearling male; ye shall take [it] from the sheep, or from the goats.
Se pou ti bèt nou chwazi a yon timal ki gen ennan, epi ki pa gen ankenn enfimite, li te mèt mouton, li te mèt kabrit.
6 And ye shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month; and the whole congregation of the assembly of Israel shall kill it between the two evenings.
N'a gade l' apa jouk sou katòzyèm jou mwa a. Jou sa a, nan aswè, tout moun Izrayèl yo va touye ti bèt la anvan li fin fè nwa.
7 And they shall take of the blood, and put [it] on the two door-posts and on the lintel of the houses in which they eat it.
N'a pran ti gout nan san bèt la, n'a pase l' sou de chanbrann pòt kay la ansanm ak sou travès lento pòt la, nan kay kote n'ap manje ti bèt la.
8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; with bitter [herbs] shall they eat it.
Menm nwit sa a, n'a boukannen vyann lan. Apre sa, n'a manje l' avèk pen ki fèt san ledven epi ak fèy lanman.
9 Ye shall eat none of it raw, nor boiled at all with water, but roast with fire; its head with its legs and with its in-wards.
Piga nou manje vyann lan ni manke kwit ni bouyi. Se boukannen pou nou boukannen l' tout ankè ak tout tonbe a.
10 And ye shall let none of it remain until the morning; and what remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn with fire.
Pa kite anyen pou denmen maten. Si rete rès, se pou nou boule l' nan dife.
11 And thus shall ye eat it: your loins shall be girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste; it is Jehovah's passover.
Men ki jan pou nou ranje kò nou pou nou manje l': n'a mare ren nou, sapat nou nan pye nou, baton nou nan men nou. Se pou nou manje l' prese prese, paske se lè sa a Seyè a ap pase.
12 And I will go through the land of Egypt in that night, and smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am Jehovah.
Jou lannwit sa a, m'ap pase nan tout peyi Lejip la, m'ap touye tout premye pitit gason ak tout premye pitit bèt yo ki nan peyi a. M'ap regle tout bondye peyi Lejip yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
13 And the blood shall be for you as a sign on the houses in which ye are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you; and the plague shall not be among you for destruction, when I smite the land of Egypt.
San nou pase sou pòt yo va make kay kote nou ye a. Lè m'a wè san an, m'a sote kay nou. Konsa, lè m'ap frape peyi Lejip la, chatiman an p'ap tonbe sou nou tou.
14 And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall celebrate it [as] a feast to Jehovah; throughout your generations [as] an ordinance for ever shall ye celebrate it.
Jou sa a, se yon jou pou nou pa janm bliye. Se pou nou fete l' tankou yon fèt pou Seyè a, chak lè lè a va rive. Se pou nou pase yon lwa pou nou toujou fete fèt sa a, nou menm ak tout pitit pitit nou yo.
15 Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread: on the very first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses; for whoever eateth leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day — that soul shall be cut off from Israel.
Pandan sèt jou, se pou nou manje pen ki fèt san ledven. Depi premye jou nan mwa a, n'a wete tout ledven anndan lakay nou, paske depi premye jou a, rive sou setyèm jou a, si yon moun gen malè manje pen ki gen ledven ladan l', se pou yo disparèt li nan mitan pèp Izrayèl la.
16 And on the first day ye shall have a holy convocation, and on the seventh day a holy convocation: no manner of work shall be done on them, save what is eaten by every person — that only shall be done by you.
Sou premye jou a ak sou setyèm jou a, n'a reyini pou nou lapriyè. Jou sa yo, nou p'ap fè ankenn travay. Manje ase n'a fè pou tout moun manje.
17 And ye shall keep the [feast of] unleavened [bread]; for in this same day have I brought your hosts out of the land of Egypt; and ye shall keep this day in your generations [as] an ordinance for ever.
N'a toujou fete fèt pen san ledven an, paske se jou sa a mwen te fè tout lame moun nou yo soti kite peyi Lejip. N'a toujou fete fèt sa a, de pitit an pitit tankou yon lwa ki la pou tout tan.
18 In the first [month], on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, ye shall eat unleavened bread until the one and twentieth day of the month in the evening.
Nan premye mwa a, depi katòzyèm jou a nan aswè rive jouk sou venteyenyèm jou a nan aswè tou, se pen san ledven pou nou manje.
19 Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses; for whoever eateth what is leavened — that soul shall be cut off from the assembly of Israel, whether he be a sojourner, or born in the land.
Pandan sèt jou sa yo, p'ap gen ledven lakay nou paske nenpòt moun ki va gen malè manje pen ki gen ledven, yo gen pou yo disparèt li nan mitan pèp Izrayèl la, kit se yon etranje, kit se yonn nan nou.
20 Ye shall eat nothing leavened: in all your dwellings shall ye eat unleavened bread.
Se pa pou nou manje pen ki gen ledven. Lakay nou, se pou tout moun manje pen san ledven.
21 And Moses called all the elders of Israel, and said to them, Seize and take yourselves lambs for your families, and kill the passover.
Moyiz rele tout chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl la, li di yo: -Se pou chak moun al chache yon ti mouton osinon yon ti kabrit pou yo touye pou fèt delivrans lan pou fanmi nou.
22 And take a bunch of hyssop, and dip [it] in the blood that is in the bason, and smear the lintel and the two door-posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning.
Apre sa, n'a pran yon branch izòp, n'a tranpe l' nan kivèt ki gen san bèt la. N'a pase l' sou de chanbrann pòt la ak sou travès lento a. Apre sa, piga pesonn soti deyò lakay yo jouk li jou.
23 And Jehovah will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he sees the blood on the lintel, and on the two door-posts, Jehovah will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come into your houses to smite [you].
Konsa, lè Seyè a va pase nan peyi Lejip la pou touye moun peyi Lejip yo, l'a wè san an sou chanbrann yo ak sou lento a, l'ap pase devan pòt la, li p'ap kite moun ki reskonsab pou touye a antre lakay nou pou touye nou.
24 And ye shall observe this as an ordinance for thee and for thy sons for ever.
N'a fè tout bagay sa yo sèvi tankou yon lwa ki la pou tout tan, ni pou nou ni pou pitit nou yo.
25 And it shall come to pass, when ye are come into the land that Jehovah will give you, as he has promised, that ye shall keep this service.
Lè n'a antre nan peyi Seyè a pral ban nou an, jan l' te pwomèt la, se pou nou toujou fè seremoni sa a.
26 And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say to you, What mean ye by this service?
Lè timoun nou yo va mande nou sa seremoni sa a vle di,
27 that ye shall say, It is a sacrifice of passover to Jehovah, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt when he smote the Egyptians and delivered our houses. And the people bowed their heads and worshipped.
n'a reponn yo: Se fèt Delivrans lan n'ap fete pou Seyè a, paske li te sote kay moun pèp Izrayèl yo nan peyi Lejip, lè li t'ap touye moun peyi Lejip yo. Konsa li pa t' fè nou anyen. Apre tout pawòl sa yo, tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo met ajenou, yo bese tèt yo atè pou adore Seyè a.
28 And the children of Israel went away, and did as Jehovah had commanded Moses and Aaron; so did they.
Lèfini, yo leve, y' ale, yo fè tou sa Seyè a te bay Moyiz ak Arawon lòd fè a. Wi, yo fè tout bagay jan li te bay lòd la.
29 And it came to pass that at midnight Jehovah smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of cattle.
Nan mitan lannwit, Seyè a touye tout premye pitit gason moun peyi Lejip yo, depi premye pitit gason farawon an ki chita sou fotèy la, jouk premye pitit gason prizonye ki te nan kacho. Tout premye pitit bèt yo tou te mouri.
30 And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his bondmen, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house in which there was not one dead.
Jou lannwit sa a, farawon an leve, li menm, tout chèf li yo ansanm ak tout pèp peyi Lejip la. Yon gwo rèl pete toupatou nan peyi Lejip, paske pa t' gen yon kay ki pa t' gen lanmò.
31 And he called Moses and Aaron in the night, and said, Rise up, go away from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve Jehovah, as ye have said.
Nan mitan lannwit lan, farawon an fè rele Moyiz ak Arawon, li di yo: -Leve, ale fè wout nou! Wete kò nou nan mitan pèp mwen an, nou menm ansanm ak moun pèp Izrayèl la. Ale, mwen di nou. Al fè sèvis pou Seyè a jan nou te di a.
32 Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and go; and bless me also.
Nou mèt pran mouton nou ak bèf nou yo, jan nou te di l' la. Epi mande Bondye pou l' beni mwen.
33 And the Egyptians urged the people, to send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We are all dead [men]!
Moun peyi Lejip yo te cho cho dèyè moun pèp Izrayèl yo pou fè yo prese kite peyi a. Yo t'ap di: -Si nou pa ale, nou tout ap mouri!
34 And the people took their dough before it was leavened; their kneading-troughs bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders.
Se konsa pèp Izrayèl la pran pa t' farin lan san yo pa t' ankò mete ledven ladan l'. Yo mete yo sou platin fou yo, yo vlope yo nan rad yo, yo mete yo sou zepòl yo.
35 And the children of Israel had done according to the word of Moses, and they had asked of the Egyptians utensils of silver, and utensils of gold, and clothing.
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo te fè sa Moyiz te di yo a. Yo mande moun peyi Lejip yo bijou an ajan, bijou an lò ansanm ak rad.
36 And Jehovah had given the people favour in the eyes of the Egyptians, and they gave to them; and they spoiled the Egyptians.
Seyè a te fè moun peyi Lejip yo gen kè sansib pou pèp Izrayèl la. Yo ba yo tou sa yo te mande. Se konsa pèp Izrayèl la pran tout bagay moun peyi Lejip yo.
37 And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot [that were] men, besides children.
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo pati kite Ranmsès pou Soukòt. Te gen sisanmil (600,000) moun konsa, san konte fanm ak timoun. Yo tout te apye.
38 And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks and herds — very much cattle.
Te gen anpil moun lòt peyi tou ki te pati ansanm ak yo. Te gen anpil mouton, kabrit ak bèf tou.
39 And they baked the dough that they brought forth out of Egypt into unleavened cakes, for it was not leavened; for they were driven out of Egypt, and could not wait; neither had they prepared for themselves any food.
Avèk pa t' farin yo te pote soti peyi Lejip la, yo fè pen. Pen yo te san ledven, paske yo te prese mete yo deyò nan peyi Lejip la. Yo pa t' menm gen tan fè pwovizyon.
40 And the residence of the children of Israel that they resided in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years.
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo te pase katsantrantan nan peyi Lejip la.
41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, on that same day it came to pass that all the hosts of Jehovah went out from the land of Egypt.
Menm jou ki te fè yo katsantrantan nan peyi a, jou pou jou, tout lame moun Seyè a soti kite peyi Lejip la.
42 It is a night of observance to Jehovah, because of their being brought out from the land of Egypt: that same night is an observance to Jehovah for all the children of Israel in their generations.
Se te yon jou lannwit. Seyè a te pase tout nwit la ap veye pou fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip la. Se poutèt sa, se pou yo mete nwit sa a apa pou yo fè veye pou Seyè a. Se bagay pou yo toujou fè de pitit an pitit.
43 And Jehovah said to Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover: No stranger shall eat of it;
Seyè a di Moyiz ak Arawon konsa: -Men ki jan pou yo fete fèt Delivrans lan. Pou konmanse, ankenn moun lòt nasyon pa gen dwa patisipe ladan l'.
44 but every man's bondman that is bought for money — let him be circumcised: then shall he eat it.
Domestik nou achte pou sèvis lakay nou, lè nou fin sikonsi yo, yo mèt patisipe.
45 A settler and a hired servant shall not eat it.
Men, ni moun lòt nasyon ki depasaj lakay nou, ni domestik k'ap travay pou lajan pa ka patisipe nan fèt la.
46 In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry forth any of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a bone thereof.
Se pou nou manje manje Delivrans lan anndan kay. Vyann lan pa fèt pou soti deyò menm. Ni nou pa fèt pou kraze ankenn zo bèt nou touye yo.
47 All the assembly of Israel shall hold it.
Se pou tout pèp Izrayèl la nèt fete fèt sa a.
48 And when a sojourner sojourneth with thee, and would hold the passover to Jehovah, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and hold it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land; but no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.
Si gen yon moun lòt nasyon ki rete nan peyi a epi ki ta vle fete fèt Delivrans lan pou Seyè a, men sa pou nou fè: Sè pou nou sikonsi tout gason lakay li anvan. Apre sa, l'a gen dwa fete fèt Delivrans lan. y'a konsidere l' tankou moun natif natal pèp Izrayèl la. Si yon gason pa sikonsi, li pa ka patisipe nan fèt la.
49 One law shall be for him that is home-born and for the sojourner that sojourneth among you.
Lòd sa a bon ni pou natif natal yo ni pou moun lòt nasyon ki rete nan peyi a nan mitan nou.
50 And all the children of Israel did as Jehovah had commanded Moses and Aaron; so did they.
Tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo te swiv lòd la, yo te fè sa Seyè a te bay Moyiz ak Arawon lòd fè a.
51 And it came to pass on that same day, [that] Jehovah brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt according to their hosts.
Se jou sa a Seyè a te fè tout lame moun Izrayèl yo soti kite peyi Lejip la.
