Exodus 13
1 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Alò SENYÈ a te pale ak Moïse e te di:
2 "Set apart to me all the firstborn. Whatever is first from the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and of animal; it is mine."
“Konsakre pou Mwen chak premye ne; premye ne pami fis Israël yo, ni lòm, ni bèt, se pou Mwen.”
3 And Moses said to the people, "Remember this day in which you came out from Egypt, out of the house of slavery, for with a mighty hand the LORD brought you out from this place. No leavened bread shall be eaten.
Moïse te di a pèp la: “Sonje jou sa a lè nou te sòti an Égypte la, nou te pati kite kay esklavaj la. Paske ak yon men pwisan, SENYÈ a te fè nou sòti nan plas sa a. Epi anyen avèk ledven pa pou manje.
4 On this day, in the month of Abib, you are going out.
Nan jou sa a, nan mwa Abib la, nou prepare pou nou soti.
5 And it shall be, when the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanite, and the Hethite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Girgashite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, which he swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you must keep this ceremony in this month.
Li va fèt ke lè SENYÈ a fè nou antre nan peyi ki pou Kananeyen yo, Etyen yo, Amoreyen yo, Evityen yo, ak Jebisyen yo, peyi ke Li te sèmante a zansèt nou yo pou bannou, yon peyi k ap koule avèk lèt ak myèl, pou nou kab obsève sèvis sakre sa a nan mwa sa a.
6 Six days you are to eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day is a feast to the LORD.
“Pandan sèt jou nou va manje pen san ledven, e nan setyèm jou a va fè yon gwo fèt a SENYÈ a.
7 Unleavened bread is to be eaten throughout the seven days. Nothing leavened is to be seen among you, nor is any leaven to be seen among you in all your territory.
“Pen san ledven an va manje pandan tout sèt jou yo; epi anyen avèk ledven p ap menm parèt pami nou. Ni nou p ap wè li pami nou nan tout fwontyè nou yo.
8 And you are to tell your son on that day, saying, 'It is because of what the LORD did for me when I came out of Egypt.'
Ou va pale fis ou a nan jou sa, e ou va di: ‘Se akoz sa ke SENYÈ a te fè pou mwen lè m te sòti an Égypte la.’
9 And it shall be as a sign to you on your hand and as a reminder between your eyes, so that the law of the LORD may be in your mouth, for with a mighty hand the LORD brought you out of Egypt.
Epi sa va sèvi kòm yon sign pou ou sou men ou, e kòm yon souvni nan fon ou, pou lalwa SENYÈ a kapab nan bouch ou; paske se te avèk yon men pwisan ke SENYÈ a te mennen nou sòti an Égypte.
10 Therefore you are to keep this ordinance at its appointed time from year to year.
Pou sa nou va kenbe òdonans sa a nan tan ki chwazi chak ane a.
11 "And it shall be, when the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites, as he swore to you and to your fathers, and gives it to you,
“Alò li va rive lè SENYÈ a mennen ou nan peyi pèp Kanaran yo, jan Li te sèmante bannou avèk zansèt nou yo, e bay ou li,
12 that you are to set apart to the LORD everything that is first from the womb. Every firstborn male animal belongs to the LORD.
ou va konsakre a SENYÈ a premye ne nan tout vant, ak premye ne nan chak bèt ke ou posede. Mal yo se pou SENYÈ a ke yo ye.
13 Every firstborn of a donkey you are to redeem with a lamb, but if you will not redeem it, then you must break its neck. And every firstborn of man among your sons you must redeem.
Men chak premye pòtre a yon bourik, ou va bay li kòm ranson avèk yon jenn mouton. Men si ou pa bay li kòm ranson, alò, ou va kase kou li, epi chak premye ne nan lòm pami fis ou yo ou va bay li kòm ranson.
14 And it shall be, when your son asks you in the future, saying, 'What is this?' then you are to tell him, 'With a mighty hand the LORD brought us out from Egypt, from the house of slavery.
“Epi sa va fèt lè fis ou mande ou nan tan ki vini yo, pou di: ‘Kisa sa ye?’, alò ou va di li: ‘Avèk yon men pwisan SENYÈ a te mennen nou sòti an Égypte, nan kay esklavaj la.
15 And it happened, when Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us go, that the LORD killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of people and the firstborn of animals. This is why I am sacrificing to the LORD any male that is first from the womb of an animal, but all my firstborn sons I redeem.'
Li te rive ke lè Farawon te fè tèt di sou afè kite nou ale a, ke SENYÈ a te touye chak premye ne ki te fèt nan peyi Égypte la, ni premye ne nan lòm, ni premye ne nan bèt. Pou sa, mwen fè sakrifis a SENYÈ a, mal yo; premye pòtre a chak vant, men premye ne nan fis mwen yo, mwen ransone yo.’
16 So it will be as a sign on your hand and at the front of a headband around your forehead, for with a mighty hand the LORD brought us out of Egypt."
Alò li va sèvi kòm yon sign sou men ou e kòm yon bando bwat kwi komemoratif ki mare sou fwon tèt ou; paske avèk yon men pwisan, SENYÈ a te mennen nou sòti an Égypte.”
17 Then it came to pass when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God did not lead them by the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was nearby, for God said, "Lest the people change their minds when they see war and return to Egypt."
Alò, lè Farawon te kite pèp la ale, Bondye pa t Mennen yo pa wout peyi Filisten yo, malgre li te toupre. Paske Bondye te di: “Pèp la kab petèt chanje lide yo lè yo wè lagè, pou yo retounen an Égypte.”
18 So God led the people around by the way of the wilderness to the Red Sea. And the children of Israel went up from the land of Egypt prepared for battle.
Pou sa, Bondye te mennen pèp la bò wout dezè a vè lanmè wouj la; epi fis Israël yo te monte byen prepare tankou yon lame pou kite peyi Égypte la.
19 And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him, for he had made the children of Israel swear an oath, saying, "God will surely attend to you, and you are to carry my bones up with you from this place."
Moïse te pran zo Joseph yo avèk li, paske li te fè fis Israël yo sèmante solanèlman e te di: “Bondye va anverite pran swen nou, e nou va pote zo mwen yo soti isit la avèk nou.”
20 Then they set out from Succoth and camped at Etham on the edge of the wilderness.
Alò yo te pati depi Succoth pou te vin kanpe Étham akote dezè a.
21 And God went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead them on their way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day and by night.
SENYÈ a t ap prale devan yo nan yon pilye nwaj pandan lajounen pou mennen yo nan chemen an, e nan yon pilye dife pandan lannwit pou bay yo limyè pou yo ta kapab vwayaje lajounen, kon lannwit.
22 He did not take away the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire at night from in front of the people.
Li pa t retire pilye nwaj la nan lajounen, ni pilye dife a nan lannwit devan pèp la.
