Exodus 13
1 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
Yawe alobaki na Moyize:
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."
« Bulisela Ngai mwana mobali nyonso ya liboso kati na bana ya Isalaele; ezala moto to nyama, azali ya Ngai. »
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.
Moyize alobaki na bato: « Bokanisa mokolo oyo bobimaki na Ejipito, mokolo oyo bobimaki na bowumbu, pamba te Yawe abimisaki bino na loboko na Ye ya nguya. Bokolia eloko moko te oyo ezali na levire.
4 On this day, in the month of Abib, you are going out.
Bozali kobima nde lelo oyo, na sanza ya abibi.
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.
Tango Yawe akokotisa yo na mokili ya bato ya Kanana, ya bato ya Iti, ya bato ya Amori, ya bato ya Evi mpe ya bato ya Yebusi, mokili oyo alakaki na batata na bino, na nzela ya ndayi, ete akopesa bino yango, mokili oyo ezali kobimisa miliki mpe mafuta ya nzoyi, okosala feti oyo na sanza oyo.
6 Six days you are to eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day is a feast to the LORD.
Mikolo sambo, bokolia mapa ezanga levire; na mokolo ya sambo, bokosala feti mpo na Yawe.
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.
Bokolia mapa ezanga levire mikolo sambo, mpe eloko moko te oyo ezali na levire ekomonana kati na mokili na bino mobimba.
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.'
Na mokolo wana, bokoyebisa na bana na bino ya mibali: ‹ Nazali kosala molulu oyo mpo na kokanisa makambo oyo Yawe asalelaki ngai tango abimisaki ngai na Ejipito. ›
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.
Feti oyo bokosala ekozala lokola elembo na loboko na bino mpe ekaniseli na elongi na bino mpo ete mibeko ya Yawe ezala na bibebu na bino, pamba te Ye nde abimisaki bino na Ejipito na loboko na Ye ya nguya.
10 Therefore you are to keep this ordinance at its appointed time from year to year.
Bokobatela mobu na mobu mibeko oyo na eleko na yango.
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,
Tango Yawe akokotisa bino na mokili ya Kanana mpe akopesa bino yango ndenge alakaki yango, na nzela ya ndayi, epai ya bakoko na bino mpe epai na bino,
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.
bokobonzela Ye bana mibali nyonso ya liboso: bana nyonso ya liboso ya banyama ekozala ya Yawe.
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.
Kasi soki mwana yango ya liboso ya nyama ezali mwana ya ane, bosengeli kobonza na esika na yango mwana meme; soki te, bokobuka yango kingo. Kasi bokosikola na mbongo mwana nyonso ya liboso kati na bana na bino ya mibali.
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.
Mikolo ekoya, tango bana na bino ya mibali bakotuna bino: ‹ Molulu oyo elakisi nini? › Bokoloba na bango: ‹ Ezali na nguya na Ye nde Yawe abimisaki biso na Ejipito, mokili ya bowumbu.
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.'
Tango Faraon aboyaki kotika biso kokende, Yawe abomaki kati na Ejipito mwana nyonso ya liboso, ezala ya moto to ya nyama. Yango wana nazali kobonzela Yawe bana nyonso ya liboso kati na banyama mpe nazali kosikola bana nyonso ya liboso kati na bana na ngai. ›
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."
Mpe yango ekozala lokola elembo na loboko na bino mpe ekaniseli na elongi na bino, pamba te Yawe abimisaki bino na Ejipito na nzela ya loboko na Ye ya nguya. »
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."
Tango Faraon atikaki bana ya Isalaele kokende, Nzambe amemaki bango te na nzela ya mboka ya Filisitia atako yango nde ezalaki mokuse, pamba te Nzambe amilobelaki: « Soki bakutani na bitumba, bakoyoka mawa na ndenge babimaki na Ejipito mpe bakoluka kozonga kuna. »
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.
Boye, Nzambe amemaki bato na nzela ya molayi, na nzela oyo ekenda na esobe, na ngambo ya ebale monene ya barozo. Bato ya Isalaele babimaki libanda ya Ejipito na molongo lokola mampinga ya basoda.
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."
Moyize azwaki mikuwa ya Jozefi, pamba te Jozefi alapisaki bana ya Isalaele ndayi; alobaki: « Solo, Nzambe akozanga te kosunga bino, boye bokolongola mikuwa na ngai na esika oyo mpe bokomema yango elongo na bino. »
20 Then they set out from Succoth and camped at Etham on the edge of the wilderness.
Tango balongwaki na Sukoti mpe batongaki molako na Etami, na mondelo ya esobe,
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.
Yawe atambolaki liboso na bango, na moyi lokola likonzi ya lipata mpo na kolakisa bango nzela, mpe na butu lokola likonzi ya moto mpo na kongengisa bango, mpo ete batambola butu mpe moyi.
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.
Likonzi ya lipata na moyi to likonzi ya moto na butu elongwaki na esika na yango te liboso ya bana ya Isalaele.
