Exodus 12
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
| وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ قَائِلًا: | ١ |
2 “This month [is] the chief of months to you—it [is] the first of the months of the year to you;
| «هَذَا ٱلشَّهْرُ يَكُونُ لَكُمْ رَأْسَ ٱلشُّهُورِ. هُوَ لَكُمْ أَوَّلُ شُهُورِ ٱلسَّنَةِ. | ٢ |
3 speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth of this month they take to themselves, each man, a lamb for the house of the fathers, a lamb for a house.
| كَلِّمَا كُلَّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلَيْنِ: فِي ٱلْعَاشِرِ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلشَّهْرِ يَأْخُذُونَ لَهُمْ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ شَاةً بِحَسَبِ بُيُوتِ ٱلْآبَاءِ، شَاةً لِلْبَيْتِ. | ٣ |
4 And if the household is too few for a lamb, then he has taken, he and his neighbor who is near to his house, for the number of persons, each according to his eating you count for the lamb.
| وَإِنْ كَانَ ٱلْبَيْتُ صَغِيرًا عَنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ كُفْوًا لِشَاةٍ، يَأْخُذُ هُوَ وَجَارُهُ ٱلْقَرِيبُ مِنْ بَيْتِهِ بِحَسَبِ عَدَدِ ٱلنُّفُوسِ. كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ عَلَى حَسَبِ أُكْلِهِ تَحْسُبُونَ لِلشَّاةِ. | ٤ |
5 A lamb, a perfect one, a male, a son of a year, let [it] be to you; you take [it] from the sheep or from the goats.
| تَكُونُ لَكُمْ شَاةً صَحِيحَةً ذَكَرًا ٱبْنَ سَنَةٍ، تَأْخُذُونَهُ مِنَ ٱلْخِرْفَانِ أَوْ مِنَ ٱلْمَوَاعِزِ. | ٥ |
6 And it has become a charge to you, until the fourteenth day of this month, and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel has slaughtered it between the evenings;
| وَيَكُونُ عِنْدَكُمْ تَحْتَ ٱلْحِفْظِ إِلَى ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلرَّابِعَ عَشَرَ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلشَّهْرِ. ثُمَّ يَذْبَحُهُ كُلُّ جُمْهُورِ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي ٱلْعَشِيَّةِ. | ٦ |
7 and they have taken of the blood, and have put [it] on the two doorposts, and on the lintel over the houses in which they eat it.
| وَيَأْخُذُونَ مِنَ ٱلدَّمِ وَيَجْعَلُونَهُ عَلَى ٱلْقَائِمَتَيْنِ وَٱلْعَتَبَةِ ٱلْعُلْيَا فِي ٱلْبُيُوتِ ٱلَّتِي يَأْكُلُونَهُ فِيهَا. | ٧ |
8 And they have eaten the flesh in this night, a roast with fire; they eat it with unleavened things and bitters;
| وَيَأْكُلُونَ ٱللَّحْمَ تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةَ مَشْوِيًّا بِٱلنَّارِ مَعَ فَطِيرٍ. عَلَى أَعْشَابٍ مُرَّةٍ يَأْكُلُونَهُ. | ٨ |
9 you do not eat of it raw, or boiled in water at all, but a roast with fire, its head with its legs, and with its innards;
| لَا تَأْكُلُوا مِنْهُ نِيئًا أَوْ طَبِيخًا مَطْبُوخًا بِٱلْمَاءِ، بَلْ مَشْوِيًّا بِٱلنَّارِ. رَأْسَهُ مَعَ أَكَارِعِهِ وَجَوْفِهِ. | ٩ |
10 and you do not leave of it until morning, and that which is remaining of it until morning you burn with fire.
| وَلَا تُبْقُوا مِنْهُ إِلَى ٱلصَّبَاحِ. وَٱلْبَاقِي مِنْهُ إِلَى ٱلصَّبَاحِ، تُحْرِقُونَهُ بِٱلنَّارِ. | ١٠ |
11 And thus you eat it: your loins girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand, and you have eaten it in haste; it is YHWH’s Passover,
| وَهَكَذَا تَأْكُلُونَهُ: أَحْقَاؤُكُمْ مَشْدُودَةٌ، وَأَحْذِيَتُكُمْ فِي أَرْجُلِكُمْ، وَعِصِيُّكُمْ فِي أَيْدِيكُمْ. وَتَأْكُلُونَهُ بِعَجَلَةٍ. هُوَ فِصْحٌ لِلرَّبِّ. | ١١ |
12 and I have passed over through the land of Egypt during this night, and have struck every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from man even to beast, and I do judgments on all the gods of Egypt; I [am] YHWH.
| فَإِنِّي أَجْتَازُ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ هَذِهِ ٱللَّيْلَةَ، وَأَضْرِبُ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَٱلْبَهَائِمِ. وَأَصْنَعُ أَحْكَامًا بِكُلِّ آلِهَةِ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١٢ |
13 And the blood has become a sign for you on the houses where you [are], and I have seen the blood, and have passed over you, and a plague is not on you for destruction in My striking in the land of Egypt.
| وَيَكُونُ لَكُمُ ٱلدَّمُ عَلَامَةً عَلَى ٱلْبُيُوتِ ٱلَّتِي أَنْتُمْ فِيهَا، فَأَرَى ٱلدَّمَ وَأَعْبُرُ عَنْكُمْ، فَلَا يَكُونُ عَلَيْكُمْ ضَرْبَةٌ لِلْهَلَاكِ حِينَ أَضْرِبُ أَرْضَ مِصْرَ. | ١٣ |
14 And this day has become a memorial to you, and you have kept it [for] a celebration to YHWH throughout your generations—a continuous statute; you keep it [for] a celebration.
| وَيَكُونُ لَكُمْ هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمُ تَذْكَارًا فَتُعَيِّدُونَهُ عِيدًا لِلرَّبِّ. فِي أَجْيَالِكُمْ تُعَيِّدُونَهُ فَرِيضَةً أَبَدِيَّةً. | ١٤ |
15 Seven days you eat unleavened things; only—in the first day you cause leaven to cease out of your houses; for anyone eating anything fermented from the first day until the seventh day, indeed, that person has been cut off from Israel.
| «سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ تَأْكُلُونَ فَطِيرًا. ٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلْأَوَّلَ تَعْزِلُونَ ٱلْخَمِيرَ مِنْ بُيُوتِكُمْ، فَإِنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ أَكَلَ خَمِيرًا مِنَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ إِلَى ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّابِعِ تُقْطَعُ تِلْكَ ٱلنَّفْسُ مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٥ |
16 And in the first day [is] a holy convocation, and in the seventh day you have a holy convocation; any work is not done in them, only that which is eaten by any person—it alone is done by you,
| وَيَكُونُ لَكُمْ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ مَحْفَلٌ مُقَدَّسٌ، وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّابِعِ مَحْفَلٌ مُقَدَّسٌ. لَا يُعْمَلُ فِيهِمَا عَمَلٌ مَا إِلَّا مَا تَأْكُلُهُ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ، فَذَلِكَ وَحْدَهُ يُعْمَلُ مِنْكُمْ. | ١٦ |
17 and you have observed the Unleavened Things, for in this very day I have brought out your hosts from the land of Egypt, and you have observed this day throughout your generations—a continuous statute.
| وَتَحْفَظُونَ ٱلْفَطِيرَ لِأَنِّي فِي هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ عَيْنِهِ أَخْرَجْتُ أَجْنَادَكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، فَتَحْفَظُونَ هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمَ فِي أَجْيَالِكُمْ فَرِيضَةً أَبَدِيَّةً. | ١٧ |
18 In the first [month], on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, you eat unleavened things until the twenty-first day of the month, at evening;
| فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ، فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلرَّابِعَ عَشَرَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ، مَسَاءً، تَأْكُلُونَ فَطِيرًا إِلَى ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْحَادِي وَٱلْعِشْرِينَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ مَسَاءً. | ١٨ |
19 seven days leaven is not found in your houses, for anyone eating anything fermented—that person has been cut off from the congregation of Israel, among the sojourners or among the natives of the land;
| سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ لَا يُوجَدْ خَمِيرٌ فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ. فَإِنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ أَكَلَ مُخْتَمِرًا تُقْطَعُ تِلْكَ ٱلنَّفْسُ مِنْ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱلْغَرِيبُ مَعَ مَوْلُودِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٩ |
20 you do not eat anything fermented—in all your dwellings you eat [only] unleavened things.”
| لَا تَأْكُلُوا شَيْئًا مُخْتَمِرًا. فِي جَمِيعِ مَسَاكِنِكُمْ تَأْكُلُونَ فَطِيرًا». | ٢٠ |
21 And Moses calls for all [the] elderly of Israel and says to them, “Draw out and take for yourselves [from] the flock, for your families, and slaughter the Passover-sacrifice;
| فَدَعَا مُوسَى جَمِيعَ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَقَالَ لَهُمُ: «ٱسْحَبُوا وَخُذُوا لَكُمْ غَنَمًا بِحَسَبِ عَشَائِرِكُمْ وَٱذْبَحُوا ٱلْفِصْحَ. | ٢١ |
22 and you have taken a bunch of hyssop, and have dipped [it] in the blood which [is] in the basin, and have struck [it] on the lintel, and on the two doorposts, from the blood which [is] in the basin, and you, you do not go out—each from the opening of his house—until morning.
| وَخُذُوا بَاقَةَ زُوفَا وَٱغْمِسُوهَا فِي ٱلدَّمِ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلطَّسْتِ وَمُسُّوا ٱلْعَتَبَةَ ٱلْعُلْيَا وَٱلْقَائِمَتَيْنِ بِٱلدَّمِ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلطَّسْتِ. وَأَنْتُمْ لَا يَخْرُجْ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ مِنْ بَابِ بَيْتِهِ حَتَّى ٱلصَّبَاحِ، | ٢٢ |
23 And YHWH has passed on to strike the Egyptians, and has seen the blood on the lintel, and on the two doorposts, and YHWH has passed over the opening, and does not permit the destruction to come into your houses to strike.
| فَإِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَجْتَازُ لِيَضْرِبَ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ. فَحِينَ يَرَى ٱلدَّمَ عَلَى ٱلْعَتَبَةِ ٱلْعُلْيَا وَٱلْقَائِمَتَيْنِ يَعْبُرُ ٱلرَّبُّ عَنِ ٱلْبَابِ وَلَا يَدَعُ ٱلْمُهْلِكَ يَدْخُلُ بُيُوتَكُمْ لِيَضْرِبَ. | ٢٣ |
24 And you have observed this thing for a statute to you and to your sons for all time;
| فَتَحْفَظُونَ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ فَرِيضَةً لَكَ وَلِأَوْلَادِكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. | ٢٤ |
25 and it has been, when you come to the land which YHWH gives to you as He has spoken, that you have kept this service;
| وَيَكُونُ حِينَ تَدْخُلُونَ ٱلْأَرْضَ ٱلَّتِي يُعْطِيكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ، أَنَّكُمْ تَحْفَظُونَ هَذِهِ ٱلْخِدْمَةَ. | ٢٥ |
26 and it has come to pass, when your sons say to you, What [is] this service you have?
| وَيَكُونُ حِينَ يَقُولُ لَكُمْ أَوْلَادُكُمْ: مَا هَذِهِ ٱلْخِدْمَةُ لَكُمْ؟ | ٢٦ |
27 That you have said, It [is] a sacrifice of Passover to YHWH, who passed over the houses of the sons of Israel in Egypt, in His striking the Egyptians, and our houses He delivered.”
| أَنَّكُمْ تَقُولُونَ: هِيَ ذَبِيحَةُ فِصْحٍ لِلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي عَبَرَ عَنْ بُيُوتِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي مِصْرَ لَمَّا ضَرَبَ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ وَخَلَّصَ بُيُوتَنَا». فَخَرَّ ٱلشَّعْبُ وَسَجَدُوا. | ٢٧ |
28 And the people bow and pay respect, and the sons of Israel go and do as YHWH commanded Moses and Aaron; so they have done.
| وَمَضَى بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ وَفَعَلُوا كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ. هَكَذَا فَعَلُوا. | ٢٨ |
29 And it comes to pass, at midnight, that YHWH has struck every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who is sitting on his throne, to the firstborn of the captive who [is] in the prison-house, and every firstborn of beasts.
| فَحَدَثَ فِي نِصْفِ ٱللَّيْلِ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ ضَرَبَ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، مِنْ بِكْرِ فِرْعَوْنَ ٱلْجَالِسِ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّهِ إِلَى بِكْرِ ٱلْأَسِيرِ ٱلَّذِي فِي ٱلسِّجْنِ، وَكُلَّ بِكْرِ بَهِيمَةٍ. | ٢٩ |
30 And Pharaoh rises by night, he and all his servants, and all the Egyptians, and there is a great cry in Egypt, for there is not a house where there is not [one] dead,
| فَقَامَ فِرْعَوْنُ لَيْلًا هُوَ وَكُلُّ عَبِيدِهِ وَجَمِيعُ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ. وَكَانَ صُرَاخٌ عَظِيمٌ فِي مِصْرَ، لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ بَيْتٌ لَيْسَ فِيهِ مَيْتٌ. | ٣٠ |
31 and he calls for Moses and for Aaron by night and says, “Rise, go out from the midst of my people, both you and the sons of Israel, and go, serve YHWH according to your word;
| فَدَعَا مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ لَيْلًا وَقَالَ: «قُومُوا ٱخْرُجُوا مِنْ بَيْنِ شَعْبِي أَنْتُمَا وَبَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ جَمِيعًا، وَٱذْهَبُوا ٱعْبُدُوا ٱلرَّبَّ كَمَا تَكَلَّمْتُمْ. | ٣١ |
32 take both your flock and your herd as you have spoken, and go; then you have also blessed me.”
| خُذُوا غَنَمَكُمْ أَيْضًا وَبَقَرَكُمْ كَمَا تَكَلَّمْتُمْ وَٱذْهَبُوا. وَبَارِكُونِي أَيْضًا». | ٣٢ |
33 And the Egyptians are urgent on the people, hastening to send them away out of the land, for they said, “We are all dead”;
| وَأَلَحَّ ٱلْمِصْرِيُّونَ عَلَى ٱلشَّعْبِ لِيُطْلِقُوهُمْ عَاجِلًا مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِأَنَّهُمْ قَالُوا: «جَمِيعُنَا أَمْوَاتٌ». | ٣٣ |
34 and the people take up their dough before it is fermented, their kneading-troughs [are] bound up in their garments on their shoulder.
| فَحَمَلَ ٱلشَّعْبُ عَجِينَهُمْ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَخْتَمِرَ، وَمَعَاجِنُهُمْ مَصْرُورَةٌ فِي ثِيَابِهِمْ عَلَى أَكْتَافِهِمْ. | ٣٤ |
35 And the sons of Israel have done according to the word of Moses, and they ask for vessels of silver and vessels of gold, and garments, from the Egyptians;
| وَفَعَلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ بِحَسَبِ قَوْلِ مُوسَى. طَلَبُوا مِنَ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ أَمْتِعَةَ فِضَّةٍ وَأَمْتِعَةَ ذَهَبٍ وَثِيَابًا. | ٣٥ |
36 and YHWH has given the grace of the people in the eyes of the Egyptians, and they cause them to ask, and they spoil the Egyptians.
| وَأَعْطَى ٱلرَّبُّ نِعْمَةً لِلشَّعْبِ فِي عُيُونِ ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ حَتَّى أَعَارُوهُمْ. فَسَلَبُوا ٱلْمِصْرِيِّينَ. | ٣٦ |
37 And the sons of Israel journey from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, apart from infants;
| فَٱرْتَحَلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ رَعَمْسِيسَ إِلَى سُكُّوتَ، نَحْوَ سِتِّ مِئَةِ أَلْفِ مَاشٍ مِنَ ٱلرِّجَالِ عَدَا ٱلْأَوْلَادِ. | ٣٧ |
38 and a great rabble has also gone up with them, and flock and herd—very much livestock.
| وَصَعِدَ مَعَهُمْ لَفِيفٌ كَثِيرٌ أَيْضًا مَعَ غَنَمٍ وَبَقَرٍ، مَوَاشٍ وَافِرَةٍ جِدًّا. | ٣٨ |
39 And they bake unleavened cakes with the dough which they have brought out from Egypt, for it has not fermented; for they have been cast out of Egypt, and have not been able to delay, and also they have not made provision for themselves.
| وَخَبَزُوا ٱلْعَجِينَ ٱلَّذِي أَخْرَجُوهُ مِنْ مِصْرَ خُبْزَ مَلَّةٍ فَطِيرًا، إِذْ كَانَ لَمْ يَخْتَمِرْ. لِأَنَّهُمْ طُرِدُوا مِنْ مِصْرَ وَلَمْ يَقْدِرُوا أَنْ يَتَأَخَّرُوا، فَلَمْ يَصْنَعُوا لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ زَادًا. | ٣٩ |
40 And the dwelling of the sons of Israel [in] which they have dwelt in Egypt [is] four hundred and thirty years;
| وَأَمَّا إِقَامَةُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّتِي أَقَامُوهَا فِي مِصْرَ فَكَانَتْ أَرْبَعَ مِئَةٍ وَثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً. | ٤٠ |
41 and it comes to pass, at the end of four hundred and thirty years—indeed, it comes to pass on this very same day—all the hosts of YHWH have gone out from the land of Egypt.
| وَكَانَ عِنْدَ نِهَايَةِ أَرْبَعِ مِئَةٍ وَثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً، فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ عَيْنِهِ، أَنَّ جَمِيعَ أَجْنَادِ ٱلرَّبِّ خَرَجَتْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ. | ٤١ |
42 It [is] a night of watchings to YHWH, to bring them out from the land of Egypt; it [is] this night of watchings to YHWH to all the sons of Israel throughout their generations.
| هِيَ لَيْلَةٌ تُحْفَظُ لِلرَّبِّ لِإِخْرَاجِهِ إِيَّاهُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ. هَذِهِ ٱللَّيْلَةُ هِيَ لِلرَّبِّ. تُحْفَظُ مِنْ جَمِيعِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي أَجْيَالِهِمْ. | ٤٢ |
43 And YHWH says to Moses and Aaron, “This [is] a statute of the Passover; any son of a stranger does not eat of it;
| وَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِمُوسَى وَهَارُونَ: «هَذِهِ فَرِيضَةُ ٱلْفِصْحِ: كُلُّ ٱبْنِ غَرِيبٍ لَا يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ. | ٤٣ |
44 and any man’s servant, the purchase of money, when you have circumcised him—then he eats of it;
| وَلَكِنْ كُلُّ عَبْدِ رَجُلٍ مُبْتَاعٍ بِفِضَّةٍ تَخْتِنُهُ ثُمَّ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ. | ٤٤ |
45 a settler or hired servant does not eat of it;
| ٱلنَّزِيلُ وَٱلْأَجِيرُ لَا يَأْكُلَانِ مِنْهُ. | ٤٥ |
46 it is eaten in one house, you do not carry out of the house [any] of the flesh outside, and you do not break a bone of it;
| فِي بَيْتٍ وَاحِدٍ يُؤْكَلُ. لَا تُخْرِجْ مِنَ ٱللَّحْمِ مِنَ ٱلْبَيْتِ إِلَى خَارِجٍ، وَعَظْمًا لَا تَكْسِرُوا مِنْهُ. | ٤٦ |
47 all the congregation of Israel keeps it.
| كُلُّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ يَصْنَعُونَهُ. | ٤٧ |
48 And when a sojourner sojourns with you, and has made a Passover to YHWH, every male of his [is] to be circumcised, and then he comes near to keep it, and he has been as a native of the land, but any uncircumcised one does not eat of it;
| وَإِذَا نَزَلَ عِنْدَكَ نَزِيلٌ وَصَنَعَ فِصْحًا لِلرَّبِّ، فَلْيُخْتَنْ مِنْهُ كُلُّ ذَكَرٍ، ثُمَّ يَتَقَدَّمُ لِيَصْنَعَهُ، فَيَكُونُ كَمَوْلُودِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. وَأَمَّا كُلُّ أَغْلَفَ فَلَا يَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ. | ٤٨ |
49 one law is to a native, and to a sojourner who is sojourning in your midst.”
| تَكُونُ شَرِيعَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ لِمَوْلُودِ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلِلنَّزِيلِ ٱلنَّازِلِ بَيْنَكُمْ». | ٤٩ |
50 And all the sons of Israel do as YHWH commanded Moses and Aaron; so they have done.
| فَفَعَلَ جَمِيعُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ. هَكَذَا فَعَلُوا. | ٥٠ |
51 And it comes to pass on this very same day, YHWH has brought out the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt by their hosts.
| وَكَانَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ عَيْنِهِ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ أَخْرَجَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ بِحَسَبِ أَجْنَادِهِمْ. | ٥١ |
