< Exodus 12 >
1 Then the Lord spake to Moses and to Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
Dixit quoque Dominus ad Moysen, et Aaron in Terra Aegypti:
2 This moneth shalbe vnto you the beginning of moneths: it shalbe to you the first moneth of the yere.
Mensis iste, vobis principium mensium: primus erit in mensibus anni.
3 Speake ye vnto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth of this moneth let euery man take vnto him a lambe, according to the house of the fathers, a lambe for an house.
Loquimini ad universum coetum filiorum Israel, et dicite eis: Decima die mensis huius tollat unusquisque agnum per familias et domos suas.
4 And if the housholde be too litle for the lambe, he shall take his neighbour, which is next vnto his house, according to the nomber of the persons: euery one of you, according to his eating shall make your count for the lambes,
Sin autem minor est numerus ut sufficere possit ad vescendum agnum, assumet vicinum suum qui iunctus est domui suae, iuxta numerum animarum quae sufficere possunt ad esum agni.
5 Your lambe shalbe without blemish, a male of a yeere olde: ye shall take it of the lambes, or of the kiddes.
Erit autem agnus absque macula, masculus, anniculus: iuxta quem ritum tolletis et hoedum.
6 And yee shall keepe it vntill the fourteenth day of this moneth: then al the multitude of the Congregation of Israel shall kill it at euen.
Et servabitis eum usque ad quartam decimam diem mensis huius: immolabitque eum universa multitudo filiorum Israel ad vesperam.
7 After, they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two postes, and on the vpper doore post of the houses where they shall eate it.
Et sument de sanguine eius, ac ponent super utrumque postem, et in superliminaribus domorum, in quibus comedent illum.
8 And they shall eate the flesh the same night, roste with fire, and vnleauened bread: with sowre herbes they shall eate it.
Et edent carnes nocte illa assas igni, et azymos panes cum lactucis agrestibus.
9 Eate not thereof rawe, boyled nor sodden in water, but rost with fire, both his head, his feete, and his purtenance.
Non comedetis ex eo crudum quid, nec coctum aqua, sed assum tantum igni: caput cum pedibus eius et intestinis vorabitis.
10 And ye shall reserue nothing of it vnto the morning: but that, which remaineth of it vnto the morowe, shall ye burne with fire.
Nec remanebit quidquam ex eo usque mane. si quid residuum fuerit, igne comburetis.
11 And thus shall yee eate it, Your loynes girded, your shoes on your feete, and your staues in your handes, and yee shall eate it in haste: for it is the Lords Passeouer.
Sic autem comedetis illum: Renes vestros accingetis, et calceamenta habebitis in pedibus, tenentes baculos in manibus, et comedetis festinanter: est enim Phase (idest, transitus) Domini.
12 For I will passe through the lande of Egypt the same night, and will smite all the first borne in the land of Egypt, both man and beast, and I will execute iudgement vpon all the gods of Egypt. I am the Lord.
Et transibo per Terram Aegypti nocte illa, percutiamque omne primogenitum in Terra Aegypti ab homine usque ad pecus: et in cunctis diis Aegypti faciam iudicia, ego Dominus.
13 And the blood shalbe a token for you vpon the houses where ye are: so when I see the blood, I will passe ouer you, and the plague shall not be vpon you to destruction, when I smite the lande of Egypt.
Erit autem sanguis vobis in signum in aedibus in quibus eritis: et videbo sanguinem, et transibo vos: nec erit in vobis plaga disperdens quando percussero Terram Aegypti.
14 And this day shalbe vnto you a remembrance: and ye shall keepe it an holie feast vnto the Lord, throughout your generations: yee shall keepe it holie by an ordinance for euer.
Habebitis autem hunc diem in monumentum: et celebrabitis eam sollemnem Domino in generationibus vestris cultu sempiterno.
15 Seuen daies shall ye eat vnleauened bread, and in any case ye shall put away leauen the first day out of your houses: for whosoeuer eateth leauened bread from the first daie vntill the seuenth day, that person shalbe cut off from Israel.
Septem diebus azyma comedetis: in die primo non erit fermentum in domibus vestris: quicumque comederit fermentatum, peribit anima illa de Israel, a primo die usque ad diem septimum.
16 And in the first day shalbe an holie assemblie: also in the seuenth day shalbe an holy assemblie vnto you: no worke shalbe done in them, saue about that which euery man must eate: that onely may ye do.
Dies prima erit sancta atque sollemnis, et dies septima eadem festivitate venerabilis: nihil operis facietis in eis, exceptis his, quae ad vescendum pertinent.
17 Ye shall keepe also the feast of vnleauened bread: for that same daye I will bring your armies out of the lande of Egypt: therefore ye shall obserue this day, throughout your posteritie, by an ordinance for euer.
Et observabitis azyma: in eadem enim ipsa die educam exercitum vestrum de Terra Aegypti, et custodietis diem istum in generationes vestras ritu perpetuo.
18 In the first moneth and the fourteenth day of the moneth at euen, yee shall eate vnleauened bread vnto the one and twentieth day of the moneth at euen.
Primo mense, quartadecima die mensis ad vesperam comedetis azyma usque ad diem vigesimam primam eiusdem mensis ad vesperam.
19 Seuen daies shall no leauen be founde in your houses: for whosoeuer eateth leauened bread, that person shalbe cut off from the Congregation of Israel: whether he bee a stranger, or borne in the land.
Septem diebus fermentatum non invenietur in domibus vestris: qui comederit fermentatum, peribit anima eius de coetu Israel, tam de advenis quam de indigenis terrae.
20 Ye shall eate no leauened bread: but in all your habitations shall ye eate vnleauened bread.
Omne fermentatum non comedetis: in cunctis habitaculis vestris edetis azyma.
21 Then Moses called all the Elders of Israel, and saide vnto them, Choose out and take you for euerie of your housholdes a lambe, and kill the Passeouer.
Vocavit autem Moyses omnes seniores filiorum Israel, et dixit ad eos: Ite tollentes animal per familias vestras, et immolate Phase.
22 And take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the basen, and strike the lintell, and the doore cheekes with the blood that is in the basen, and let none of you goe out at the doore of his house, vntill the morning.
Fasciculumque hyssopi tingite in sanguine qui est in limine, et aspergite ex eo superliminare, et utrumque postem: nullus vestrum egrediatur ostium domus suae usque mane.
23 For the Lord will passe by to smite the Egyptians: and when he seeth the blood vpon the lintel and on the two doore cheekes, the Lord wil passe ouer the doore, and wil not suffer the destroyer to come into your houses to plague you.
Transibit enim Dominus percutiens Aegyptios: cumque viderit sanguinem in superliminari, et in utroque poste, transcendet ostium domus, et non sinet percussorem ingredi domos vestras et laedere.
24 Therefore shall ye obserue this thing as an ordinance both for thee and thy sonnes for euer.
Custodi verbum istud legitimum tibi et filiis tuis usque in aeternum.
25 And when ye shall come into the land, which the Lord will giue you as hee hath promised, then ye shall keepe this seruice.
Cumque introieritis terram, quam Dominus daturus est vobis ut pollicitus est, observabitis ceremonias istas.
26 And when your children aske you, What seruice is this ye keepe?
Et cum dixerint vobis filii vestri: Quae est ista religio?
27 Then ye shall saye, It is the sacrifice of the Lordes Passeouer, which passed ouer the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and preserued our houses. Then the people bowed them selues, and worshipped.
dicetis eis: Victima transitus Domini est, quando transivit super domos filiorum Israel in Aegypto percutiens Aegyptios, et domos nostras liberans. Incurvatusque populus adoravit.
28 So the children of Israel went, and did as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron: so did they.
Et egressi filii Israel fecerunt sicut praeceperat Dominus Moysi et Aaron.
29 Nowe at midnight, the Lord smote all the first borne in the lande of Egypt, from the first borne of Pharaoh that sate on his throne, vnto the first borne of the captiue that was in prison, and all the first borne of beastes.
Factum est autem in noctis medio, percussit Dominus omne primogenitum in Terra Aegypti, a primogenito Pharaonis, qui in solio eius sedebat, usque ad primogenitum captivae quae erat in carcere, et omne primogenitum iumentorum.
30 And Pharaoh rose vp in the night, he, and all his seruants and all the Egyptians: and there was a great crye in Egypt: for there was no house where there was not one dead.
Surrexitque Pharao nocte, et omnes servi eius, cunctaque Aegyptus: et ortus est clamor magnus in Aegypto: neque enim erat domus in qua non iaceret mortuus.
31 And hee called to Moses and to Aaron by night, and saide, Rise vp, get you out from among my people, both yee, and the children of Israel, and goe serue the Lord as ye haue sayde.
Vocatisque Pharao, Moyse, et Aaron nocte, ait: Surgite et egredimini a populo meo, vos et filii Israel: ite, immolate Domino sicut dicitis.
32 Take also your sheepe and your cattell as yee haue sayde, and depart, and blesse me also.
Oves vestras et armenta assumite ut petieratis, et abeuntes benedicite mihi.
33 And the Egyptians did force the people, because they would send them out of the land in haste: for they said, We die all.
Urgebantque Aegyptii populum de terra exire velociter, dicentes: Omnes moriemur.
34 Therfore the people tooke their dough before it was leauened, euen their dough bound in clothes vpon their shoulders.
Tulit igitur populus conspersam farinam antequam fermentaretur: et ligans in palliis, posuit super humeros suos.
35 And the children of Israel did according to the saying of Moses, and they asked of ye Egyptians iewels of siluer and iewels of gold, and raiment.
Feceruntque filii Israel sicut praeceperat Dominus Moysi: et petierunt ab Aegyptiis vasa argentea et aurea, vestemque plurimam.
36 And the Lord gaue the people fauour in the sight of the Egyptians: and they graunted their request: so they spoyled the Egyptians.
Dominus autem dedit gratiam populo coram Aegyptiis ut commodarent eis: et spoliaverunt Aegyptios.
37 Then the children of Israel tooke their iourney from Rameses to Succoth about sixe hundreth thousand men of foote, beside children.
Profectique sunt filii Israel de Ramesse in Socoth, sexcenta fere millia peditum virorum, absque parvulis et mulieribus.
38 And a great multitude of sundrie sortes of people went out with them, and sheepe, and beeues, and cattel in great abundance.
Sed et vulgus promiscuum innumerabile ascendit cum eis, oves et armenta et animantia diversi generis multa nimis.
39 And they baked the dough which they brought out of Egypt, and made vnleauened cakes: for it was not leauened, because they were thrust out of Egypt, neither coulde they tarie, nor yet prepare themselues vitailes.
Coxeruntque farinam, quam dudum de Aegypto conspersam tulerant: et fecerunt subcinericios panes azymos: neque enim poterat fermentari cogentibus exire Aegyptiis, et nullam facere sinentibus moram: nec pulmenti quidquam occurrerat praeparare.
40 So the dwelling of the children of Israel, while they dwelled in Egypt, was foure hundreth and thirtie yeres.
Habitatio autem filiorum Israel qua manserunt in Aegypto, fuit quadringentorum triginta annorum.
41 And when the foure hundreth and thirtie yeeres were expired, euen the selfe same day departed all the hostes of the Lord out of the land of Egypt.
Quibus expletis, eadem die egressus est omnis exercitus Domini de Terra Aegypti.
42 It is a night to be kept holie to the Lord, because he brought them out of the lande of Egypt: this is that night of the Lord, which all the children of Israel must keepe throughout their generations.
Nox ista est observabilis Domini, quando eduxit eos de Terra Aegypti: hanc observare debent omnes filii Israel in generationibus suis.
43 Also the Lord said vnto Moses and Aaron, This is the Lawe of the Passeouer: no stranger shall eate thereof.
Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron: Haec est religio Phase: Omnis alienigena non comedet ex eo.
44 But euerie seruant that is bought for money, when thou hast circumcised him, then shall he eat thereof.
Omnis autem servus emptitius circumcidetur, et sic comedet.
45 A stranger or an hyred seruant shall not eat thereof.
Advena et mercenarius non edent ex eo.
46 In one house shall it bee eaten: thou shalt carie none of ye flesh out of the house, neither shall ye breake a bone thereof.
In una domo comedetur, nec efferetis de carnibus eius foras, nec os illius confringetis.
47 All the Congregation of Israel shall obserue it.
Omnis coetus filiorum Israel faciet illud.
48 But if a stranger dwell with thee, and will obserue the Passeouer of the Lord, let him circumcise all the males, that belong vnto him, and then let him come and obserue it, and he shall be as one that is borne in the land: for none vncircumcised person shall eate thereof.
Quod si quis peregrinorum in vestram voluerit transire coloniam, et facere Phase Domini, circumcidetur prius omne masculinum eius, et tunc rite celebrabit: eritque sicut indigena terrae: si quis autem circumcisus non fuerit, non vescetur ex eo.
49 One lawe shalbe to him that is borne in the land, and to the stranger that dwelleth among you.
Eadem lex erit indigenae et colono qui peregrinatur apud vos.
50 Then all the children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron: so did they.
Feceruntque omnes filii Israel sicut praeceperat Dominus Moysi et Aaron.
51 And the selfe same day did the Lord bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies.
Et eadem die eduxit Dominus filios Israel de terra Aegypti per turmas suas.
