Exodus 12
1 And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
Yehova anayankhula kwa Mose ndi Aaroni mʼdziko la Igupto kuti,
2 “This month [is] the chief of months to you—it [is] the first of the months of the year to you;
“Mwezi uno uzikhala mwezi wanu woyamba wa chaka.
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.
Muliwuze khamu lonse la Israeli kuti pa tsiku la khumi la mwezi uno, munthu aliyense asankhire banja lake mwana wankhosa mmodzi. Banja lililonse litenge mwana wankhosa mmodzi.
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.
Ngati banja lili lochepa moti silingathe kudya nyama yonse ya nkhosa, ligawane ndi banja lomwe layandikana nalo nyumba. Mabanja adziwiretu chiwerengero cha anthu amene alipo pokonzekera zimenezi. Muwerengere kuchuluka kwa nyama imene anthu adzadye potengera mmene munthu mmodzi angadyere.
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.
Ziweto zimene musankhe ziyenera kukhala zazimuna za chaka chimodzi, zopanda chilema, ndipo zikhale nkhosa kapena mbuzi.
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;
Muzisunge mpaka tsiku la khumi ndi chinayi la mwezi, pamene gulu lonse la Aisraeli lidzaphe nyamazo madzulo.
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.
Ndipo adzatengeko magazi anyamazo ndi kuwaza pa mphuthu ziwiri za chitseko ndiponso pamwamba pa chitseko cha nyumba mmene adzadyeremo ana ankhosawo.
8 And they have eaten the flesh in this night, a roast with fire; they eat it with unleavened things and bitters;
Adzawotche nyamayo ndi kudya usiku womwewo, ndipo adzayidye ndi buledi wophikidwa popanda yisiti pamodzi ndi masamba wowawa.
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;
Musadzadye yayiwisi kapena yophika, koma mudzawotche yonse, mutu, miyendo ndi zamʼmimba.
10 and you do not leave of it until morning, and that which is remaining of it until morning you burn with fire.
Musadzasiye nyama ina mpaka mmawa, ngati ina idzatsala mpaka mmawa, mudzayitenthe.
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,
Muzidzadya nyamayo mutavala chotere, pokonzekera ulendo: mudzazimangirire lamba mʼchiwuno, nsapato zanu kuphazi ndi ndodo yanu kumanja. Mudzadye mofulumira. Imeneyi ndi Paska ya Yehova.
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.
“Usiku umenewo Ine ndidzadutsa mʼdziko la Igupto ndipo ndidzapha chilichonse choyamba kubadwa kuyambira mwana wa munthu aliyense mpaka ana aziweto. Ndidzalanganso milungu yonse ya Igupto. Ine ndine Yehova.
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.
Magazi amene mudzawaze pa mphuthu za zitseko ndi pamwamba pa zitseko aja adzakhala ngati chizindikiro. Ine ndikadzaona magaziwo ndidzakudutsani, ndipo ndikadzamakantha anthu a Igupto, mliri wosakazawu sudzakukhudzani.
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.
“Ili ndi tsiku la chikumbutso. Tsiku limeneli muzidzachita chikondwerero, kupembedza Yehova. Mibado yonse imene ikubwera izidzakumbukira tsiku limeneli ngati lamulo lamuyaya ndi kuti pa tsikuli azidzachita chikondwerero cholemekeza Yehova.
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.
Kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri muzidya buledi wopanda yisiti. Tsiku loyamba muzichotsa yisiti mʼnyumba zanu, ngati aliyense adzadya kanthu kalikonse kali ndi yisiti kuyambira tsiku loyamba mpaka tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri, munthu ameneyo adzayenera kuchotsedwa mʼgulu la Israeli.
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,
Pa tsiku loyamba muzichita msonkhano wopatulika, ndipo winanso uzikhala pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri. Musamagwire ntchito masiku onsewa, koma ntchito yokonza chakudya yokha kuti aliyense adye. Izi ndi zimene muzichita.
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.
“Muzichita chikondwerero cha buledi wopanda yisiti, chifukwa ndi pa tsiku limeneli ndinatulutsa magulu anu mʼdziko la Igupto. Muzikondwerera tsiku limeneli pa mibado yonse ngati lamulo lamuyaya.
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;
Mwezi woyamba muzidzadya buledi wopanda yisiti kuyambira madzulo tsiku la 14 la mweziwo mpaka tsiku la 21 mwezi womwewo.
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;
Yisiti asamapezeka mʼnyumba zanu kwa masiku asanu ndi awiri. Ndipo aliyense amene adya chakudya chimene muli yisiti, munthu ameneyo ayenera kuchotsedwa mʼgulu la Aisraeli, kaya iyeyo ndi mlendo kapena mbadwa.
20 you do not eat anything fermented—in all your dwellings you eat [only] unleavened things.”
Musadye chilichonse chokhala ndi yisiti. Kulikonse kumene mukukhala, muyenera kudya buledi wopanda yisiti.”
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;
Ndipo Mose anasonkhanitsa akuluakulu onse a Israeli nati, “Pitani msanga kukasankha nkhosa zokwanira pa mabanja anu, ndipo muziphe ngati Paska.
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.
Mutengenso nthambi ya chitsamba cha hisope, muchiviyike mʼmagazi amene mwawayika mʼbeseni ndipo muwaze ena mwa magaziwo pamwamba ndi mʼmbali mwa mphuthu za chitseko. Palibe aliyense wa inu amene adzatuluke mʼnyumba yake mpaka mmawa.
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.
Pamene Yehova adzadutsa mʼdziko kudzakantha Aigupto, nʼkuona magazi pamwamba ndi mʼmbali mwa mphuthu za chitseko, Iye adzadutsa khomo limenelo ndipo sadzalola woonongayo kuti alowe mʼnyumba zanu kuti akukantheni.
24 And you have observed this thing for a statute to you and to your sons for all time;
“Muzimvera malamulo amenewa kwa muyaya, inu ndi zidzukulu zanu.
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;
Mukakalowa mʼdziko limene Yehova adzakupatseni monga analonjeza, mukasunge mwambo umenewu.
26 and it has come to pass, when your sons say to you, What [is] this service you have?
Ndipo ana anu akakakufunsani kuti, ‘Mwambo umenewu ukutanthauza chiyani?’
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.”
Inu mukawawuze kuti, ‘Ndi nsembe ya Paska ya Yehova, popeza pamene ankakantha nyumba za Aigupto anasiya nyumba zathu.’” Kenaka anthu anawerama napembedza.
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.
Aisraeli anachita monga momwe Yehova analamulira Mose ndi Aaroni.
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.
Pakati pa usiku Yehova anakantha ana onse oyamba kubadwa mʼdziko la Igupto, kuyambira woyamba kubadwa wa Farao, amene amakhala pa mpando waufumu wa Faraoyo, mpaka mwana woyamba kubadwa wa munthu amene anali mʼdzenje, pamodzinso ndi ana oyamba kubadwa a ziweto zawo.
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,
Farao ndi nduna zake zonse ndiponso Aigupto onse anadzuka pakati pa usiku, ndipo kunali kulira kwakukulu mʼdziko lonse la Igupto, pakuti panalibe nyumba imene munalibe munthu wakufa.
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;
Pakati pa usiku Farao anayitanitsa Mose ndi Aaroni ndipo anati, “Nyamukani! Asiyeni anthu anga, inu ndi Aisraeli! Pitani, kapembedzeni Yehova monga munapempha.
32 take both your flock and your herd as you have spoken, and go; then you have also blessed me.”
Tengani ziweto ndi ngʼombe zanu ndipo pitani kapembedzeni Mulungu wanu monga munanenera kuti ine ndidalitsike.”
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”;
Aigupto anawawumiriza anthuwo kuti atuluke mofulumira ndi kusiya dziko lawo. Iwo anati, “Ngati sitiwalola kutero, tonse tidzafa.”
34 and the people take up their dough before it is fermented, their kneading-troughs [are] bound up in their garments on their shoulder.
Motero anthuwo ananyamula ufa wawo wopangira buledi asanathiremo yisiti ndipo anasenza pa mapewa awo pamodzi ndi zokandiramo buledi atazikulunga mu nsalu.
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;
Aisraeli anachita monga anawawuzira Mose kuti apemphe kwa Aigupto zozikongoletsera zasiliva ndi zagolide ndi zovala.
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.
Yehova anafewetsa mtima Aigupto kuti akomere mtima Aisraeliwo ndipo anawapatsa zimene anawapempha. Motero Aisraeli anawalanda zinthu Aigupto.
37 And the sons of Israel journey from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, apart from infants;
Aisraeli anayenda ulendo kuchokera ku Ramesesi mpaka kukafika ku Sukoti. Anthu aamuna oyenda pansi analipo 600,000 osawerengera akazi ndi ana.
38 and a great rabble has also gone up with them, and flock and herd—very much livestock.
Anthu enanso ambiri anapita nawo, kuphatikizanso gulu lalikulu la ziweto, mbuzi, nkhosa pamodzi ndi ngʼombe.
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.
Iwo anapanga buledi wopanda yisiti ndi ufa umene anachoka nawo ku Igupto. Ufawo unalibe yisiti chifukwa anachita kuthamangitsidwa ku Igupto ndipo analibe nthawi yokonzera chakudya chawo.
40 And the dwelling of the sons of Israel [in] which they have dwelt in Egypt [is] four hundred and thirty years;
Ndipo Aisraeli anakhala ku Igupto kwa zaka 430.
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.
Pa tsiku lomwelo limene anakwanitsa zaka 430, magulu onse a Yehova anatuluka mʼdziko la Igupto.
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.
Usiku wonse Yehova anachezera kutulutsa ana a Israeli mʼdziko la Igupto. Nʼchifukwa chake pa tsiku limeneli Aisraeli onse azichezera usiku wonse kulemekeza Mulungu kamba ka mibado yonse ya mʼtsogolo.
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;
Yehova anati kwa Mose ndi Aaroni, “Malamulo a Paska ndi awa: “Mlendo asadye Paska.
44 and any man’s servant, the purchase of money, when you have circumcised him—then he eats of it;
Kapolo aliyense amene munagula angadye ngati atayamba wachita mdulidwe.
45 a settler or hired servant does not eat of it;
Koma amene mukukhala naye kwa kanthawi kapena waganyu asadye Paska.
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;
“Muzidyera Paska mʼnyumba imodzi. Musatulutse nyama iliyonse kunja kwa nyumba. Musaswe mafupa aliwonse.
47 all the congregation of Israel keeps it.
Gulu lonse la Israeli lizichita mwambo wachikondwererochi.
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;
“Ngati mlendo wokhala pakati panu angafune kuchita nawo mwambo wa chikondwerero cha Paska, cha Yehovachi, amuna onse a mʼnyumba mwake ayenera kuchita mdulidwe. Akatero muzimutenga ngati mbadwa pakati panu. Koma aliyense wosachita mdulidwe asadye Paska.
49 one law is to a native, and to a sojourner who is sojourning in your midst.”
Lamulo limeneli likhudza mbadwa ngakhalenso alendo wochita mdulidwe wokhala pakati panu.
50 And all the sons of Israel do as YHWH commanded Moses and Aaron; so they have done.
“Aisraeli onse anachita monga momwe Yehova analamulira Mose ndi Aaroni.
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.
Ndipo tsiku lomwelo Yehova anatulutsa gulu lonse la ana a Israeli mʼdziko la Igupto.”
