< Exodus 12 >

1 And YHWH speaks to Moses and to Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
Antan Moyiz ak Arawon te nan peyi Lejip la, Seyè a di yo:
2 “This month [is] the chief of months to you—it [is] the first of the months of the year to you;
-Se mwa sa a k'ap premye mwa pou nou nan lanne a. Se limenm k'ap anvan tout lòt mwa yo.
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.
Pale tout moun pèp Izrayèl la. Di yo: sou dizyèm jou mwa sa a, n'a pran yon ti mouton pou chak fanmi, tande byen wi, yon ti mouton pou chak kay.
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.
Si pa gen kont moun nan kay la pou manje tout ti mouton an, se pou yo mete tèt yo ansanm ak vwazinaj ki pi pre kay la. N'a kalkile kantite moun ki nesesè pou manje mouton an, sa chak moun ka manje.
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.
Se pou ti bèt nou chwazi a yon timal ki gen ennan, epi ki pa gen ankenn enfimite, li te mèt mouton, li te mèt kabrit.
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;
N'a gade l' apa jouk sou katòzyèm jou mwa a. Jou sa a, nan aswè, tout moun Izrayèl yo va touye ti bèt la anvan li fin fè nwa.
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.
N'a pran ti gout nan san bèt la, n'a pase l' sou de chanbrann pòt kay la ansanm ak sou travès lento pòt la, nan kay kote n'ap manje ti bèt la.
8 And they have eaten the flesh in this night, a roast with fire; they eat it with unleavened things and bitters;
Menm nwit sa a, n'a boukannen vyann lan. Apre sa, n'a manje l' avèk pen ki fèt san ledven epi ak fèy lanman.
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;
Piga nou manje vyann lan ni manke kwit ni bouyi. Se boukannen pou nou boukannen l' tout ankè ak tout tonbe a.
10 and you do not leave of it until morning, and that which is remaining of it until morning you burn with fire.
Pa kite anyen pou denmen maten. Si rete rès, se pou nou boule l' nan dife.
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,
Men ki jan pou nou ranje kò nou pou nou manje l': n'a mare ren nou, sapat nou nan pye nou, baton nou nan men nou. Se pou nou manje l' prese prese, paske se lè sa a Seyè a ap pase.
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.
Jou lannwit sa a, m'ap pase nan tout peyi Lejip la, m'ap touye tout premye pitit gason ak tout premye pitit bèt yo ki nan peyi a. M'ap regle tout bondye peyi Lejip yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
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.
San nou pase sou pòt yo va make kay kote nou ye a. Lè m'a wè san an, m'a sote kay nou. Konsa, lè m'ap frape peyi Lejip la, chatiman an p'ap tonbe sou nou tou.
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.
Jou sa a, se yon jou pou nou pa janm bliye. Se pou nou fete l' tankou yon fèt pou Seyè a, chak lè lè a va rive. Se pou nou pase yon lwa pou nou toujou fete fèt sa a, nou menm ak tout pitit pitit nou yo.
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.
Pandan sèt jou, se pou nou manje pen ki fèt san ledven. Depi premye jou nan mwa a, n'a wete tout ledven anndan lakay nou, paske depi premye jou a, rive sou setyèm jou a, si yon moun gen malè manje pen ki gen ledven ladan l', se pou yo disparèt li nan mitan pèp Izrayèl la.
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,
Sou premye jou a ak sou setyèm jou a, n'a reyini pou nou lapriyè. Jou sa yo, nou p'ap fè ankenn travay. Manje ase n'a fè pou tout moun manje.
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.
N'a toujou fete fèt pen san ledven an, paske se jou sa a mwen te fè tout lame moun nou yo soti kite peyi Lejip. N'a toujou fete fèt sa a, de pitit an pitit tankou yon lwa ki la pou tout tan.
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;
Nan premye mwa a, depi katòzyèm jou a nan aswè rive jouk sou venteyenyèm jou a nan aswè tou, se pen san ledven pou nou manje.
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;
Pandan sèt jou sa yo, p'ap gen ledven lakay nou paske nenpòt moun ki va gen malè manje pen ki gen ledven, yo gen pou yo disparèt li nan mitan pèp Izrayèl la, kit se yon etranje, kit se yonn nan nou.
20 you do not eat anything fermented—in all your dwellings you eat [only] unleavened things.”
Se pa pou nou manje pen ki gen ledven. Lakay nou, se pou tout moun manje pen san ledven.
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;
Moyiz rele tout chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl la, li di yo: -Se pou chak moun al chache yon ti mouton osinon yon ti kabrit pou yo touye pou fèt delivrans lan pou fanmi nou.
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.
Apre sa, n'a pran yon branch izòp, n'a tranpe l' nan kivèt ki gen san bèt la. N'a pase l' sou de chanbrann pòt la ak sou travès lento a. Apre sa, piga pesonn soti deyò lakay yo jouk li jou.
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.
Konsa, lè Seyè a va pase nan peyi Lejip la pou touye moun peyi Lejip yo, l'a wè san an sou chanbrann yo ak sou lento a, l'ap pase devan pòt la, li p'ap kite moun ki reskonsab pou touye a antre lakay nou pou touye nou.
24 And you have observed this thing for a statute to you and to your sons for all time;
N'a fè tout bagay sa yo sèvi tankou yon lwa ki la pou tout tan, ni pou nou ni pou pitit nou yo.
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;
Lè n'a antre nan peyi Seyè a pral ban nou an, jan l' te pwomèt la, se pou nou toujou fè seremoni sa a.
26 and it has come to pass, when your sons say to you, What [is] this service you have?
Lè timoun nou yo va mande nou sa seremoni sa a vle di,
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.”
n'a reponn yo: Se fèt Delivrans lan n'ap fete pou Seyè a, paske li te sote kay moun pèp Izrayèl yo nan peyi Lejip, lè li t'ap touye moun peyi Lejip yo. Konsa li pa t' fè nou anyen. Apre tout pawòl sa yo, tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo met ajenou, yo bese tèt yo atè pou adore Seyè a.
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.
Lèfini, yo leve, y' ale, yo fè tou sa Seyè a te bay Moyiz ak Arawon lòd fè a. Wi, yo fè tout bagay jan li te bay lòd la.
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.
Nan mitan lannwit, Seyè a touye tout premye pitit gason moun peyi Lejip yo, depi premye pitit gason farawon an ki chita sou fotèy la, jouk premye pitit gason prizonye ki te nan kacho. Tout premye pitit bèt yo tou te mouri.
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,
Jou lannwit sa a, farawon an leve, li menm, tout chèf li yo ansanm ak tout pèp peyi Lejip la. Yon gwo rèl pete toupatou nan peyi Lejip, paske pa t' gen yon kay ki pa t' gen lanmò.
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;
Nan mitan lannwit lan, farawon an fè rele Moyiz ak Arawon, li di yo: -Leve, ale fè wout nou! Wete kò nou nan mitan pèp mwen an, nou menm ansanm ak moun pèp Izrayèl la. Ale, mwen di nou. Al fè sèvis pou Seyè a jan nou te di a.
32 take both your flock and your herd as you have spoken, and go; then you have also blessed me.”
Nou mèt pran mouton nou ak bèf nou yo, jan nou te di l' la. Epi mande Bondye pou l' beni mwen.
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”;
Moun peyi Lejip yo te cho cho dèyè moun pèp Izrayèl yo pou fè yo prese kite peyi a. Yo t'ap di: -Si nou pa ale, nou tout ap mouri!
34 and the people take up their dough before it is fermented, their kneading-troughs [are] bound up in their garments on their shoulder.
Se konsa pèp Izrayèl la pran pa t' farin lan san yo pa t' ankò mete ledven ladan l'. Yo mete yo sou platin fou yo, yo vlope yo nan rad yo, yo mete yo sou zepòl yo.
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;
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo te fè sa Moyiz te di yo a. Yo mande moun peyi Lejip yo bijou an ajan, bijou an lò ansanm ak rad.
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.
Seyè a te fè moun peyi Lejip yo gen kè sansib pou pèp Izrayèl la. Yo ba yo tou sa yo te mande. Se konsa pèp Izrayèl la pran tout bagay moun peyi Lejip yo.
37 And the sons of Israel journey from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, apart from infants;
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo pati kite Ranmsès pou Soukòt. Te gen sisanmil (600,000) moun konsa, san konte fanm ak timoun. Yo tout te apye.
38 and a great rabble has also gone up with them, and flock and herd—very much livestock.
Te gen anpil moun lòt peyi tou ki te pati ansanm ak yo. Te gen anpil mouton, kabrit ak bèf tou.
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.
Avèk pa t' farin yo te pote soti peyi Lejip la, yo fè pen. Pen yo te san ledven, paske yo te prese mete yo deyò nan peyi Lejip la. Yo pa t' menm gen tan fè pwovizyon.
40 And the dwelling of the sons of Israel [in] which they have dwelt in Egypt [is] four hundred and thirty years;
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo te pase katsantrantan nan peyi Lejip la.
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.
Menm jou ki te fè yo katsantrantan nan peyi a, jou pou jou, tout lame moun Seyè a soti kite peyi Lejip la.
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.
Se te yon jou lannwit. Seyè a te pase tout nwit la ap veye pou fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip la. Se poutèt sa, se pou yo mete nwit sa a apa pou yo fè veye pou Seyè a. Se bagay pou yo toujou fè de pitit an pitit.
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;
Seyè a di Moyiz ak Arawon konsa: -Men ki jan pou yo fete fèt Delivrans lan. Pou konmanse, ankenn moun lòt nasyon pa gen dwa patisipe ladan l'.
44 and any man’s servant, the purchase of money, when you have circumcised him—then he eats of it;
Domestik nou achte pou sèvis lakay nou, lè nou fin sikonsi yo, yo mèt patisipe.
45 a settler or hired servant does not eat of it;
Men, ni moun lòt nasyon ki depasaj lakay nou, ni domestik k'ap travay pou lajan pa ka patisipe nan fèt la.
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;
Se pou nou manje manje Delivrans lan anndan kay. Vyann lan pa fèt pou soti deyò menm. Ni nou pa fèt pou kraze ankenn zo bèt nou touye yo.
47 all the congregation of Israel keeps it.
Se pou tout pèp Izrayèl la nèt fete fèt sa a.
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;
Si gen yon moun lòt nasyon ki rete nan peyi a epi ki ta vle fete fèt Delivrans lan pou Seyè a, men sa pou nou fè: Sè pou nou sikonsi tout gason lakay li anvan. Apre sa, l'a gen dwa fete fèt Delivrans lan. y'a konsidere l' tankou moun natif natal pèp Izrayèl la. Si yon gason pa sikonsi, li pa ka patisipe nan fèt la.
49 one law is to a native, and to a sojourner who is sojourning in your midst.”
Lòd sa a bon ni pou natif natal yo ni pou moun lòt nasyon ki rete nan peyi a nan mitan nou.
50 And all the sons of Israel do as YHWH commanded Moses and Aaron; so they have done.
Tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo te swiv lòd la, yo te fè sa Seyè a te bay Moyiz ak Arawon lòd fè a.
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.
Se jou sa a Seyè a te fè tout lame moun Izrayèl yo soti kite peyi Lejip la.
