Exodus 13
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis okwu sị,
2 Sanctify unto me all the firstborn, whatsoever openeth the womb among the children of Israel, [both] of man and of beast: it [is] mine.
“Dooro m nsọ onye ọbụla bụ ọkpara, onye ọbụla e bụ ụzọ mụọ nʼetiti ụmụ Izrel, na nʼetiti mmadụ ma nʼetiti anụ ụlọ, nke m ka ọ bụ.”
3 And Moses said unto the people, Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out from this [place: ] there shall no leavened bread be eaten.
Mosis gwara ndị Izrel sị, “Chetanụ ụbọchị taa, ụbọchị unu si nʼala Ijipt pụta, ala ebe unu bụ ndị ohu, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼike aka ya dị ukwu kpọpụta unu site nʼebe ahụ. Unu erikwala achịcha ọbụla e ji ihe na-eko achịcha mee.
4 This day came ye out in the month Abib.
Taa, nʼọnwa Abib, bụ ụbọchị unu na-ahapụ ala Ijipt.
5 And it shall be when the LORD shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou shalt keep this service in this month.
Mgbe Onyenwe anyị dubatara unu nʼala ndị Kenan, ndị Het, ndị Amọrait, ndị Hiv na ndị Jebus bi nʼime ya, bụ ala ahụ ọ ṅụrụ nʼiyi nye nna nna unu ha na ọ ga-enye unu, ala mmiri ara ehi na mmanụ aṅụ na-eru na ya, unu ga-eme ofufe mmemme a nʼọnwa a.
6 Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, and in the seventh day [shall be] a feast to the LORD.
Unu ga-eri achịcha na-ekoghị eko ụbọchị asaa ahụ. Nʼụbọchị nke ikpeazụ nʼime ụbọchị asaa ahụ, unu ga-eme mmemme oke oriri nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
7 Unleavened bread shall be eaten seven days; and there shall no leavened bread be seen with thee, neither shall there be leaven seen with thee in all thy quarters.
Rienụ achịcha na-ekoghị eko nʼime ụbọchị asaa ndị ahụ. Achịcha e ji ihe na-eko achịcha mee agaghị adị nʼụlọ unu. Achịcha e ji ihe na-eko achịcha mee agaghị adị nʼoke ala unu niile.
8 And thou shalt shew thy son in that day, saying, [This is done] because of that [which] the LORD did unto me when I came forth out of Egypt.
Nʼoge ọbụla ị na-eme mmemme a, kọwaara nwa gị nwoke ihe kpatara i ji eme mmemme a, si ya, ‘Ana m eme mmemme a maka icheta ihe Onyenwe anyị meere m, mgbe m si nʼIjipt pụta.’
9 And it shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, that the LORD’s law may be in thy mouth: for with a strong hand hath the LORD brought thee out of Egypt.
Imezu mmemme a ga-adịrị unu dịka ihe ịrịbama nʼala unu, dịrịkwa ka ihe ngosi nʼegedege ihu unu, ichetara unu na Onyenwe anyị ji aka ike ya dupụta anyị site nʼala Ijipt.
10 Thou shalt therefore keep this ordinance in his season from year to year.
Unu ga na-eme mmemme a nʼoge a kara aka nʼafọ ọbụla.
11 And it shall be when the LORD shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanites, as he sware unto thee and to thy fathers, and shall give it thee,
“Mgbe Onyenwe anyị dubatara unu nʼala ndị Kenan, nyefee unu ala ahụ dịka ọ ṅụrụ nʼiyi nye nna nna unu ha,
12 That thou shalt set apart unto the LORD all that openeth the matrix, and every firstling that cometh of a beast which thou hast; the males [shall be] the LORD’s.
unu ga-enyefe Onyenwe anyị ụmụ ndị ikom unu niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ. Ọzọ, ụmụ oke anụ ụlọ niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ bụ nke Onyenwe anyị.
13 And every firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb; and if thou wilt not redeem it, then thou shalt break his neck: and all the firstborn of man among thy children shalt thou redeem.
Jiri nwa atụrụ gbapụta nwa ịnyịnya ibu mbụ e bụ ụzọ mụọ. Ọ bụrụ na unu achọghị ịgbara nwa ịnyịnya ibu ahụ, unu aghaghị ịgbaji ya olu. Ma unu aghaghị ịgbara ụmụ ndị ikom niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ.
14 And it shall be when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What [is] this? that thou shalt say unto him, By strength of hand the LORD brought us out from Egypt, from the house of bondage:
“Nʼoge dị nʼihu, mgbe nwa gị nwoke ga-ajụ gị sị, ‘Gịnị ka ihe ndị a pụtara?’ Ị ga-azaghachi ya sị, ‘Onyenwe anyị jiri aka ike dị ukwu dupụta anyị site nʼIjipt, site nʼala nke ohu.
15 And it came to pass, when Pharaoh would hardly let us go, that the LORD slew all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of man, and the firstborn of beast: therefore I sacrifice to the LORD all that openeth the matrix, being males; but all the firstborn of my children I redeem.
Mgbe Fero mesiri obi ya ike, jụ ka anyị si nʼala ya pụọ, Onyenwe anyị gburu ụmụ ndị ikom niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ nʼala Ijipt, ma mmadụ ma anụ ụlọ. Nʼihi ya, ana m eji ụmụ oke anụ ụlọ niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ achụ aja nye Onyenwe anyị. Ma ụmụ m ndị ikom niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ ka m na-agbapụta.’
16 And it shall be for a token upon thine hand, and for frontlets between thine eyes: for by strength of hand the LORD brought us forth out of Egypt.
Mmemme a ga-adị ka ihe ịrịbama nʼanya unu, dịrịkwa ka ihe ngosi nʼegedege ihu unu, ichetara unu na Onyenwe anyị ji aka ike ya dupụta anyị site nʼala Ijipt.”
17 And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not [through] the way of the land of the Philistines, although that [was] near; for God said, Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and they return to Egypt:
Mgbe Fero mesịrị kwere ka ụmụ Izrel laa, Chineke edughị ha site nʼụzọ ahụ gafere ala ndị Filistia. Ọ bụ ezie na ụzọ ahụ dị nso karịa. Chineke mere nke a nʼihi na o chere nʼobi ya sị, “Ọ bụrụ na ndị a ezute agha, ha nwere ike ịgbanwe obi ha tụgharịa ịlaghachi azụ nʼIjipt.”
18 But God led the people about, [through] the way of the wilderness of the Red sea: and the children of Israel went up harnessed out of the land of Egypt.
Ya mere, Chineke duuru ha ga nʼụzọ Osimiri Uhie, nke gara nʼụzọ nke ọzara. Ụmụ Izrel kwadokwara akwado ibu agha mgbe ha si nʼala Ijipt pụọ.
19 And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him: for he had straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones away hence with you.
Mosis buuru ọkpụkpụ Josef mgbe ha na-ala. Nʼihi na o mere ka ụmụ Izrel ṅụọ iyi na ha ga-eme otu a, na-asị, “Chineke ga-eleta unu nʼezie, mgbe ahụ, unu aghaghị iburu ọkpụkpụ m si nʼebe a pụọ.”
20 And they took their journey from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, in the edge of the wilderness.
Ha si Sukọt bilie ije, maa ụlọ ikwu ha na Etam, na nsọtụ ọzara.
21 And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night:
Onyenwe anyị ji ogidi igwe ojii na-eje nʼihu ha nʼehihie, idu ha nʼụzọ ha niile. Nʼabalị, o ji ogidi ọkụ, inye ha ìhè ka ha nwee ike ịga njem nʼehihie nakwa nʼabalị.
22 He took not away the pillar of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, [from] before the people.
Ma ogidi igwe ojii nʼehihie na ogidi ọkụ ahụ nʼabalị, ọ dịghị nke hapụrụ ọnọdụ ya nʼihu ha.
