< Exodus 13 >

1 Adonai spoke to Moses [Drawn out], saying,
Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
2 “Sanctify to me all the firstborn, whatever opens the womb among the children of Israel [God prevails], both of man and of animal. It is mine.”
“Ebibereberye byonna binjawulireko. Abaana abaggulanda mu Isirayiri yonna banaabanga bange; n’ebisolo ebiggulanda nabyo binaabanga byange.”
3 Moses [Drawn out] said to the people, “Remember this day, in which you came out of Egypt [Abode of slavery], out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand Adonai brought you out from this place. No leavened bread shall be eaten.
Awo Musa n’agamba abantu nti, “Mujjukiranga olunaku luno, olunaku lwe mwaviirako mu Misiri, ensi gye mwafugibwanga ng’abaddu, kubanga Mukama yabaggyayo n’omukono gwe ogw’amaanyi. Temuliirangako mugaati gulimu kizimbulukusa.
4 Today you go out in the first month Aviv ·Ripening grain (of a new crop), 1·.
Ku lunaku lwa leero olw’omwezi guno Abibu, lwe musitudde okuva mu Misiri.
5 It shall be, when Adonai shall bring you into the land of the Canaanite [Descendant of Humbled], and the Hittite [Descendant of Trembling fear], and the Amorite [Descendants of Talkers], and the Hivite [Wicked], and the Jebusite [Descendants of Thresher], which he swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall keep this aboda ·service· in this month.
Mukama bw’alimala okubatuusa mu nsi y’Abakanani, n’Abakiiti, n’Abamoli; n’ey’Abakiivi, n’Abayebusi, ensi gye yalayirira bajjajjammwe okugibawa, ensi ekulukuta amata n’omubisi gw’enjuki, mukwatanga omukolo guno mu mwezi guno.
6 Seven days you shall eat matzah ·unleavened bread·, and in the seventh day shall be a feast to Adonai.”
Mumalanga ennaku musanvu nga mulya emigaati egitaliimu kizimbulukusa, ne ku lunaku olw’omusanvu kwe munaakoleranga embaga ya Mukama.
7 Unleavened bread shall be eaten throughout the seven days; and no leavened bread shall be seen with you. No yeast shall be seen with you, within all your borders.
Munaalyanga emigaati egitali mizimbulukuse okumala ennaku musanvu; tewabangawo alabika n’omugaati omuzimbulukuse, wadde ekizimbulukusa okusangibwa nammwe mu nsi yammwe.
8 You shall tell your son in that day, saying, “It is because of that which Adonai did for me when I came out of Egypt [Abode of slavery].”
Ku lunaku olwo mulitegeeza abaana bammwe nti, ‘Tukola tuti nga tujjukira ebyo Mukama bye yatukolera nga tuva mu Misiri.’
9 It shall be for a sign to you on your hand, and for a memorial between your eyes, that Adonai’s Torah ·Teaching· may be in your mouth; for with a strong hand Adonai has brought you out of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
Omukolo guno gunaababeereranga ng’akabonero ku mikono gyammwe, oba mu byenyi wakati w’amaaso gammwe, okubajjukizanga etteeka lya Mukama eritaavenga ku mimwa gyammwe. Kubanga Mukama yabaggya mu Misiri n’omukono gwe ogw’amaanyi.
10 You shall therefore keep this regulation in its season from year to year.
Noolwekyo onookolanga ekiragiro kino bye kigamba, mu kiseera kyakyo buli mwaka, buli mwaka.
11 “It shall be, when Adonai shall bring you into the land of the Canaanite [Descendant of Humbled], as he swore to you and to your fathers, and shall give it you,
“Mukama ng’amaze okubatuusa mu nsi y’Abakanani, nga bwe yabalayirira mmwe ne bajjajja bammwe, era agenda kugibawa,
12 that you shall set apart to Adonai all that opens the womb, and every firstborn which you have that comes from an animal. The males shall be Adonai’s.
Mukama mumwawulirangako ebiggulanda byonna. Zisseddume zonna embereberye ez’amagana gammwe zinaabanga za Mukama.
13 Every firstborn of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb; and if you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck; and you shall redeem all the firstborn of man among your sons.
Buli kalogoyi akabereberye mukawaanyisangamu omwana gw’endiga ne mukanunulayo, naye bwe mutaakanunulenga mukamenyanga ensingo ne kafa. Ne buli mutabani wammwe omubereberye mumununulanga.
14 It shall be, when your son asks you in time to come, saying, ‘What is this?’ that you shall tell him, ‘By strength of hand Adonai brought us out from Egypt [Abode of slavery], from the house of bondage.
“Awo olulituuka batabani bammwe, bwe bababuuzanga nti, ‘Kino kye mukola kitegeeza ki?’ Mubaddangamu nti, ‘Kubanga Mukama yatuggya mu Misiri, ensi ey’obuddu, n’omukono gwe ogw’amaanyi.
15 When Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us go, Adonai killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery], both the firstborn of man, and the firstborn of animal. Therefore I sacrifice to Adonai all that opens the womb, being males; but all the firstborn of my sons I redeem.’
Naye Falaawo bwe yali ng’akakanyadde ng’atugaanye okuvaayo, Mukama n’atta ebibereberye byonna mu nsi y’e Misiri; ababereberye b’abantu n’ebibereberye by’ebisolo. Noolwekyo kyetuva tuwaayo ssaddaaka eri Mukama ey’ebiggulanda byonna ebisajja; naye batabani baffe abaggulanda tubanunulayo.’
16 It shall be for a sign on your hand, and for symbols between your eyes: for by strength of hand Adonai brought us out of Egypt [Abode of slavery].”
Omukolo ogwo gunaababeereranga ng’akabonero akookebbwa ku mikono gyammwe, oba mu byenyi wakati w’amaaso gammwe; kubanga Mukama yabaggya mu Misiri n’omukono gwe ogw’amaanyi.”
17 When Pharaoh had let the people go, God didn’t lead them by the way of the land of the Philistines [To roll in dust (As an insult)], although that was near; for God said, “Lest perhaps the people change their minds when they see war, and they teshuvah ·completely return· to Egypt [Abode of slavery];”
Awo abantu, bwe baasitula nga Falaawo amaze okubaleka, Katonda teyabayisa mu kkubo eriyita mu nsi y’Abafirisuuti, newaakubadde lye lyali ery’okumpi. Kubanga Katonda yagamba nti, “Singa bagwa mu lutalo, bayinza okwejjusa ne bawetamu ne baddayo e Misiri.”
18 but God led the people around by the way of the wilderness by the Sea of Suf [Reed Sea]; and the children of Israel [God prevails] went up armed out of the land of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
Bw’atyo Katonda n’abeekooloobya ng’abayisa mu kkubo ery’omu ddungu eriggukira ku Nnyanja Emyufu. Abaana ba Isirayiri baava mu nsi y’e Misiri nga bakutte ebyokulwanyisa byabwe nga beetegekedde okulwana.
19 Moses [Drawn out] took the bones of Joseph [May he add] with him, for he had made the children of Israel [God prevails] swear, saying, “God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones away from here with you.”
Awo Musa n’avaayo n’amagumba ga Yusufu, kubanga Yusufu yali alayizza abaana ba Isirayiri. Yabagamba nti, “Ddala, ddala Mukama agenda kubadduukirira. Kale, amagumba gange mugendanga nago nga muva wano.”
20 They took their journey from Sukkot, and encamped in Etham, in the edge of the wilderness.
Bwe baava e Sukkosi ne bakuba eweema zaabwe mu Yesamu eddungu we litandikira.
21 Adonai 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, that they might go by day and by night:
Emisana Mukama yabakulemberanga ng’ali mu mpagi ey’ekire okubalaga ekkubo, n’ekiro ng’ali mu mpagi ey’omuliro okubamulisiza, balyoke batambulenga emisana n’ekiro.
22 the pillar of cloud by day, and the pillar of fire by night, didn’t depart from before the people.
Empagi ey’ekire ey’emisana, n’empagi ey’omuliro ey’ekiro tezaggibwawo mu maaso g’abantu obudde bwonna.
