< Exodus 12 >

1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
Alò, SENYÈ a te di a Moïse avèk Aaron nan peyi Égypte la:
2 This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.
“Mwa sa a va vin premye nan mwa yo pou nou. Li va premye mwa nan ane a pou nou.
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 a tout asanble Israël la, e di: ‘Nan dizyèm mwa sa a, yo chak va pran yon jenn mouton pou yo menm, selon kay pa yo, yon 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.
Alò, si kay la twò piti pou yon jenn mouton, li menm avèk vwazen li ap pran youn pou kont yo, selon kantite moun ki nan yo selon sa ke chak moun ta kab manje, nou va divize jenn mouton an.
5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a yearling male; ye shall take [it] from the sheep, or from the goats.
“‘Jenn mouton nou an va yon jenn mal, ak laj yon lane, san defo. Nou ka pran li pami mouton yo, oswa kabrit yo.
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.
Nou va kenbe li jis rive nan katòzyèm jou nan menm mwa sa a, e tout asanble kongregasyon Israël la va touye li nan aswè.
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.
Anplis, yo va pran kèk nan san an, e mete li sou de chanbrann pòt kay la, ak sou de travès lento pòt kay la kote yo va manje li a.
8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; with bitter [herbs] shall they eat it.
“‘Yo va manje chè a menm nwit lan, boukannen li nan dife, e yo va manje li avèk pen san ledven, ak zèb anmè.
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.
Pa manje anyen nan li ki pa kwit, ni ki bouyi avèk okenn dlo, men pito ki boukannen nan dife, ni tèt li, ni janm li yo ansanm avèk zantray li yo.
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.
Epi nou pa pou kite anyen nan li pou maten men nenpòt sa ki rete nan li, nan maten nou va brile li 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.
Alò, nou va manje li konsa: avèk senti nou mare, sapat nan pye nou ak baton nou nan men nou; epi nou va manje li byen vit—sa se Pak SENYÈ a.
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.
“‘Paske Mwen va pase nan peyi Égypte la nan nwit lan, e Mwen va frape tout premye ne nan peyi Égypte la, ni moun, ni bèt. Epi kont tout dye an Égypte yo, Mwen va egzekite jijman—Mwen menm se SENYÈ 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 an va yon sign pou nou sou kay kote nou rete yo. Lè Mwen wè san an, Mwen va pase sou nou, e nanpwen touman k ap rive nou, ni detwi nou lè Mwen frape peyi Égypte la.
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.
“‘Alò, jou sa a va vin yon jou pa janm bliye pou nou, e nou va selebre li kòm yon fèt a SENYÈ a. Pami tout jenerasyon yo nou gen pou fete li kòm yon règleman k ap la pou tout tan.’”
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 nou va manje pen san ledven, men nan premye jou a, nou va retire tout ledven ki nan kay nou yo. Paske nenpòt moun ki manje nenpòt bagay avèk ledven depi nan premye jou a jis rive nan setyèm jou a, moun sa va koupe retire nèt de Israël.
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.
“Nan premye jou a nou va fè yon konvokasyon sen, e yon lòt konvokasyon sen nan setyèm jou a. P ap gen travay k ap fèt nan yo, sof sa ki oblije fèt pou manje a chak moun; se sa sèl nou kapab prepare.
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.
“Nou va osi obsève fèt Pen San Ledven an, paske nan jou sa a menm, Mwen te fè lame nou yo sòti nan peyi Égypte la. Pou sa, nou va obsève jou sa pandan jenerasyon nou yo kòm yon règleman k ap 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, nan katòzyèm jou nan mwa a, nan aswè, nou va manje pen san ledven an, jiska vente-yen jou nan mwa a, lè l rive nan aswè.
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 yo nou pa pou twouve ledven lakay nou paske nenpòt moun ki manje sa ki leve, moun sa a va vin koupe retire nèt de asanble Israël la, menm si se yon etranje, oswa yon natif peyi a.
20 Ye shall eat nothing leavened: in all your dwellings shall ye eat unleavened bread.
Nou pa pou manje anyen avèk ledven. Nan tout abitasyon nou yo nou va 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.
Alò, Moïse te rele tout ansyen Israël yo e te di yo: “Ale pran pou nou menm jenn mouton yo selon fanmi nou, e touye jenn mouton Pak la.
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.
Nou va pran yon pake izòp e fonse li nan san basen an, epi mete kèk nan san basen an sou de chanbrann yo avèk travès lento pòt yo. Pèsòn pa pou ale deyò pòt kay li jis rive nan maten.
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].
Paske SENYÈ a va travèse pou frape Ejipsyen yo; epi lè Li wè san sou travès lento pòt yo, ak sou de chanbrann pòt yo, SENYÈ a va pase sou pòt la, e Li p ap kite destriktè a antre nan kay nou pou frape nou.
24 And ye shall observe this as an ordinance for thee and for thy sons for ever.
“Epi nou va obsève evènman sa a kòm yon règleman pou nou menm avèk pitit nou yo pou tout tan.
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 nou antre nan peyi ke SENYÈ a va bannou an, jan Li te pwomèt nou an, nou va obsève sèvis sakre sila a.
26 And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say to you, What mean ye by this service?
“Epi lè pitit nou di nou: ‘Kisa sa vle di selon sèvis sila a?’
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.
Nou va di: ‘Sa se yon sakrifis Pak la pou SENYÈ a ki te pase sou kay a fis Israël yo nan Égypte lè Li t ap frape Ejipsyen yo, men te epanye lakay nou.’” Konsa, pèp la te bese ba, e te adore.
28 And the children of Israel went away, and did as Jehovah had commanded Moses and Aaron; so did they.
Alò, fis Israël yo te ale fè sa, jis jan SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse avèk Aaron an, konsa yo te fè.
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.
Alò li te vin rive nan minwi, SENYÈ a te frape tout premye ne nan peyi Égypte yo, depi premye ne a Farawon ki te chita sou twòn li an, jis rive nan premye ne nan kaptif ki te nan prizon yo, e menm tout premye ne nan bèt yo.
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.
Farawon te leve nan nwit lan, li ak sèvitè li yo avèk tout Ejipsyen yo. Yo te gen yon gwo lamantasyon nan tout Égypte la, paske pa t gen kay kote moun pa t mouri.
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.
Epi li te rele Moïse avèk Aaron nan nwit lan. Li te di yo: “Leve e kite pèp mwen an, ni nou menm, ni fis Israël yo. Ale adore SENYÈ a, jan nou te di a.
32 Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and go; and bless me also.
Pran ni bann mouton nou yo, ni twoupo nou yo, jan nou te di a, epi ale. Konsa, beni mwen tou!”
33 And the Egyptians urged the people, to send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We are all dead [men]!
Ejipsyen yo ak ijans menm, te ankouraje pèp la pou kite peyi a byen vit, paske yo te di: “Nou tout pral mouri.”
34 And the people took their dough before it was leavened; their kneading-troughs bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders.
Alò pèp la te pran pat farin ki potko leve yo, ak bòl pou petri yo byen mare nan rad 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.
Alò, fis Israël yo te fè selon pawòl a Moïse la, paske yo te mande nan men Ejipsyen yo, bagay ki fèt an ajan, bagay ki fèt avèk lò, avèk vètman.
36 And Jehovah had given the people favour in the eyes of the Egyptians, and they gave to them; and they spoiled the Egyptians.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te bay pèp la favè nan zye Ejipsyen yo, jiskaske yo te sede a demann sa a. Konsa, yo te vin piyaje Ejipsyen yo.
37 And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot [that were] men, besides children.
Alò, fis Israël yo te vwayaje soti nan Ramsès rive Succoth, anviwon sis-san-mil òm apye, san kontwole timoun.
38 And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks and herds — very much cattle.
Yon gran foul byen mele osi te monte avèk yo, menm avèk bann mouton ak twoupo, yon trè gran kantite bèt.
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.
Yo te kwit pat farin ke yo te fè sòti an Égypte yo, e yo te fè gato ak pen san ledven yo. Li pa t leve, akòz ke yo te chase sòti an Égypte, e yo pa t kab pran reta, ni yo pa t prepare okenn manje pou yo menm.
40 And the residence of the children of Israel that they resided in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years.
Alò tan ke fis Israël yo te pase an Égypte la te kat-san-trant ane.
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.
Nan fen kat-san-trant ane yo, jis rive nan jou a menm, tout lame SENYÈ a te sòti an Égypte.
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 yon nwit pou nou obsève pou SENYÈ a, paske li fè yo sòti nan peyi Égypte la. Nwit sa a se pou SENYÈ a, pou obsève pa tout fis Israël yo selon tout jenerasyon pa yo.
43 And Jehovah said to Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover: No stranger shall eat of it;
SENYÈ a te di a Moise avèk Aaron: “Sa se òdonans Pak la. Okenn etranje pa pou manje li;
44 but every man's bondman that is bought for money — let him be circumcised: then shall he eat it.
men esklav a chak moun, achte avèk lajan, lè nou fin sikonsi li, alò, li kapab manje nan li.
45 A settler and a hired servant shall not eat it.
Yon etranje ki rete pami nou, oswa yon sèvitè ki anplwaye, pa pou manje l.
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.
“Li oblije manje nan yon sèl kay. Nou pa pou mennen okenn nan chè a andeyò kay la, ni nou pa pou kase okenn nan zo li.
47 All the assembly of Israel shall hold it.
Tout asanble Israël la dwe obsève 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.
“Men si yon etranje rete avèk nou, li selebre fèt Pak la bay SENYÈ a, ke tout mal gason li yo vin sikonsi, e kite li pwoche pou selebre li. Konsa, li va devni yon natif peyi a. Men okenn moun san sikonsisyon pa pou manje li.
49 One law shall be for him that is home-born and for the sojourner that sojourneth among you.
Menm règ sa a va aplike a natif la tankou etranje ki demere pami nou yo.”
50 And all the children of Israel did as Jehovah had commanded Moses and Aaron; so did they.
Alò, tout fis Israël yo te fè sa. Yo te fè sa jis jan SENYÈ a te kòmande Moïse avèk Aaron an.
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.
Epi nan menm jou sa a, SENYÈ a te mennen fis Israël yo sòti nan peyi Égypte la selon lòd lame pa yo.
