Exodus 13
1 The Lord told Moses,
Nitsara ty hoe amy Mosè t’Iehovà:
2 “Every firstborn male is to be dedicated to me. The firstborn from every Israelite family belongs to me, and also every firstborn animal.”
Avaho ho ahy ze hene lahilahy valohan’ anake. I manoka-koviñe amo ana’ Israeleo, ke ondaty he hare, ahiko irezay.
3 So Moses told the people, “Remember this is the day you left Egypt, the land of your slavery, for the Lord led you out of it by his amazing power. (Nothing with yeast in it shall be eaten.)
Hoe t’i Mosè am’ondatio, Tiahio ty andro toy, ty niavota’ areo i Mitsraime, boak’ an-trañom-pañondevozañe ao; amy t’ie nampiengà’ Iehovà atoy an-kaozaram-pità’e; le tsy ho kamaeñe ty mofo aman-dalivay.
4 Today you are on your way, this day in the month of Abib.
Androany ami’ty volan-kofahofa, ty niavota’ areo.
5 The Lord is going to take you into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Hivites, and Jebusites, the land he promised your forefathers he would give you, a land flowing with milk and honey. So you are to observe this ceremony in this month.
Aa naho minday azo mb’an-tane’ o nte-Kanàneo naho o nte-Kheteo naho o nte-Emòreo naho o nte-Kiveo vaho mb’amo nte-Iebosìo añe t’Iehovà, ie nampitamae’e an-droae’o am-pànta hatolots’ azo; tane orikorihen-dronono naho tantele, le hambena’o ami’ty volañe toy o fitalahoañe zao.
6 For seven days you are to only eat bread without yeast, and on the seventh day hold a religious festival to honor the Lord.
Fito andro ty hikama’o mofo po-dalivay vaho ano Sabadidake. am’ Iehovà amy andro faha-fitoy.
7 Only bread without yeast is to be eaten during those seven days. You are not to have any yeast, in fact there is to be no yeast in any place where you live.
Ho kamaeñe fito andro ty mofo po-dalivay, le tsy ho tendrek’ ama’o ty mofo aman-dalivay vaho tsy ho zoeñe ama’o, an-toe’o iaby ty lalivay.
8 On that day tell your children, ‘This is because of what the Lord did for me when I left Egypt.’
Ty hoe ty hatoro’o ami’ty ana-dahi’o amy andro zay, Ie i nanoe’ Iehovà ho ahikoy, t’ie niavotse i Mitsraime.
9 When you celebrate this ceremony it will be like a sign on your hand and a reminder between your eyes that this teaching of the Lord should be spoken about regularly. For the Lord led you out of Egypt with his great power.
Ho viloñe ama’o am-pità’o naho tiahy añivom-pihaino’o eo soa te ho am-palie’o ty Ha’ Iehovày, amy te am-pitàñe maozatse ty nampiavota’ Iehovà azo amy Mitsraime.
10 That's why you are to observe this ceremony at the proper time every year.
Aa le hambena’o amy namotoaña’e azey boa-taoñe o fañè zao.
11 Once the Lord takes you into the land of the Canaanites and gives it to you, as he promised you and your forefathers,
Naho ninday azo an-tane’ o nte-Kanàneo t’Iehovà, ie nifañina ama’o naho an-droae’o vaho fa natolo’e azo,
12 you are to present to the Lord all firstborn males, human or animal. The firstborn males of your livestock all belong to the Lord.
le havì’o ho a Iehovà ze hene manoka-koviñe naho ze fonga valohan’ anan-kare’o, a Iehovà o lahi’eo.
13 You must buy back every firstborn donkey with a lamb, and if you don't do so, you have to break its neck. You must buy back every firstborn of your sons.
Fa ho jebañe’o ami’ty añondry ka ty valohan’ ana-borìke, aa naho tsy lefe’o jebañeñe, le tsi-mete tsy kitsihe’o ty loha’e. Aa le ho jebañe’o ty tañoloñoloñan-anadahi’o.
14 When in the future your children come to you and ask, ‘Why is this ceremony important to you?’ you are to tell them, ‘The Lord led us out of Egypt, the land of our slavery, by his amazing power.
Ie añe naho mañontane azo ty ana’o ami’ty hoe: Ino zao. Le hatoi’o ty hoe, An-kaozaram-pità’e ro nampiengà’ Iehovà anay i Mitsraime, boak’ an-trañom-pañondevozañe ao.
15 Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us leave, so the Lord killed every firstborn in the land of Egypt, both human and animal. That's the reason why I sacrifice to the Lord the firstborn male of every animal, and I buy back all the firstborn of my sons.’
Ie nifoneñe tsy hampienga anay t’i Parò, le vinono’ Iehovà ze fonga valohan’ anake an-tane Mitsraime ao, ty tañoloñoloña’ ondaty naho ty valohan’ anan-kare. Aa le soroñeko am’ Iehovà ze lahi’e manokake ty hoviñe, fe ho jebañeko ze tañoloñoloñan’ anadahiko.
16 In this way it will be like a sign on your hand and a reminder between your eyes, for the Lord led us out of Egypt by his amazing power.”
Le ho sokitse am-pità’o eo zay vaho alama aolo’ o maso’oo te ninday antika niavotse e Mitsraime am-pità’e maozatse t’Iehovà.
17 When Pharaoh let the Israelites leave, God did not lead them along the road through the land of the Philistines, even though that was a shorter way. For God said, “If they are forced to fight, they might change their minds and go back to Egypt.”
Naho nampienga’ i Parò ondatio, le tsy niaoloan’ Añahare mb’an-tane o nte-Pilistio mb’eo ndra t’ie narine. Fa hoe t’i Andrianañahare, hera hibalintoa ondatio te miatrek’ aly naho hibalike mb’e Mitsraime añe.
18 So God led the people by the longer way through the desert towards the Red Sea. When the Israelites left the land of Egypt they were like an army ready for battle.
Te mone nampiarien’ Añahare mb’ an-dalan-diolio’ i Riake Menay ondatio. Le nangovovoke boake Mitsraime o ana’ Israeleo.
19 Moses carried Joseph's bones with him because Joseph had made the sons of Israel swear a solemn promise, saying, “God will definitely take care of you, and then you must take my bones with you when you leave here.”
Le nendese’ i Mosè mindre ama’e ty taola’ Iosefe amy nampifantà’e o ana’ Israeleo ty hoe: Toe hitilik’ anahareo t’i Andrianañahare vaho hampindreze’ areo ama’areo boak’ atoa o taolakoo.
20 They traveled on from Succoth and camped at Etham on the edge of the desert.
Ie niavotse i Sokote iereo le nitobe Etame añ’olo’ i ratraratray.
21 The Lord went ahead of them as a pillar of cloud to show them the way during the day, and as a pillar of fire to provide them with light at night. Like this they could travel by day or night.
Niaoloa’ Iehovà an-drahoñe mitiotiotse te antoandro nitarike i liay vaho an’afo mijoala te haleñe hañomea’e hazavàñe hañaveloañe handro naho haleñe.
22 The pillar of cloud during the day and the pillar of fire at night were always in front of the people.
Tsy nisitak’ ami’ty fiaoloa’e ondatio i rahoñe nitiotiotsey te antoandro, ndra i afo nijoalay te haleñe.
