Exodus 12
1 Then spake Yahweh, unto Moses and unto Aaron, in the land of Egypt saying—
Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu nʼala Ijipt sị ha,
2 This month, is, to you, a beginning of months, —the first, it is, to you, of the months of the year.
“Ọnwa a ga-abụrụ unu isi ọnwa. Ọ ga-abụ ọnwa mbụ nke ọnwa niile nʼafọ unu.
3 Speak ye unto all the assembly of Israel, saying, On the tenth of this month, then let them take to them, each man a lamb for his ancestral household, a lamb for a household.
Gwa ọgbakọ ụmụ Izrel niile okwu sị ha, Nʼafọ ọbụla, nʼabalị iri nke ọnwa a, nwoke ọbụla ga-eweta nwa atụrụ nʼisi ezinaụlọ ọbụla.
4 But if the household be too small for a lamb, then shall he and his neighbour that is near unto his house take one, according to the number of souls, —each man according to his eating, shall ye number for the lamb.
Ezinaụlọ ọbụla nke dịkarịrị nta, nke na-enweghị ike iweta na iricha otu nwa atụrụ, ga-ejekwuru ezinaụlọ ọzọ dịkwa nta, ka ha jikọtaa onwe ha ọnụ weta nwa atụrụ. Ndị ga-ejikọta onwe ha ọnụ aghaghị ibu ụzọ pịa mmadụ ole ha ga-adị nwee ike richaa otu atụrụ.
5 A lamb without defect a male a year old, shall yours be, —from the sheep or from the goats, shall ye take it.
Nwa atụrụ a ga-eweta ga-abụ oke gbara naanị otu afọ, nke na-enweghị ntụpọ ọbụla nʼahụ ya. Unu nwere ike họrọ atụrụ maọbụ ewu.
6 So shall it be yours, to keep, until the fourteenth day of this month, —then shall all the convocation of the assembly of Israel slay it between the two evenings.
Unu ga-elekọta ya anya ruo nʼụbọchị nke iri na anọ nke ọnwa a. Nʼabalị ụbọchị ahụ ka ọgbakọ Izrel niile ga-egbu ya.
7 And they shall take of the blood, and put upon the two door-posts and upon the upper-beam, —upon the houses wherein they are to eat it.
Ha ga-ewere ọbara ya tee nʼelu na nʼakụkụ ibo ọnụ ụzọ nke dị nʼezinaụlọ ha niile, ebe ha ga-anọ rie anụ atụrụ ahụ.
8 Then shall they eat the flesh, in the same night, —roast with fire, and with unleavened cakes, with bitter herbs, shall they eat it.
Ha ga-eri anụ atụrụ a, nke a ga-ahụ nʼọkụ nʼabalị ahụ, ya na achịcha na-ekoghị eko, na ahịhịa ndụ na-elu ilu.
9 Do not eat of it underdone, nor cooked by boiling in water, —but roast with fire, its head with its legs, and with its inward parts.
A gaghị eri nwa atụrụ ọbụla na ndụ, a gaghị esikwa ya esi, kama a ga-ahụ ya nʼọkụ. A ga-ahụ akụkụ ahụ nwa atụrụ ọbụla nʼọkụ, tinyere isi ya, ụkwụ ya na ihe dị nʼime afọ ya.
10 And ye shall let nothing thereof remain until morning, —but that which is left remaining until morning, in the fire shall ye consume.
Unu agaghị erifọdụ ya ruo nʼụtụtụ echi ya. Nke ọbụla ga-afọdụ nʼabalị ahụ, a ga-akpọ ya ọkụ.
11 And, thus, shall ye eat it, —your loins, girded, your sandals, on your feet, and, your staff, in your hand, —so shall ye eat it in haste, it is Yahweh’s, passing over.
Otu a ka unu ga-esi rie ya: yirinụ uwe unu, na akpụkpọụkwụ unu. Jirikwanụ mkpara unu. Jikerenụ dịka ndị na-aga njem dị anya. Unu ga-eri anụ atụrụ a na achịcha na-ekoghị eko ngwangwa. A ga-akpọ oriri a Mmemme Ngabiga Onyenwe anyị.
12 I will pass along, therefore, throughout the land of Egypt this night, and will smite every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from man even to beast, —and against all the gods of Egypt, will I execute judgments—I, Yahweh.
“Aga m agafe nʼala Ijipt nʼabalị ahụ, igbu ndị ikom niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ nʼala Ijipt, ma mmadụ, ma anụmanụ. Aga m emekwa ka ikpe ọmụma bịakwasị chi ndị ọzọ ahụ niile Ijipt na-efe ofufe. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
13 Then shall the blood serve you for a sign, on the houses wherein ye are, then will I behold the blood, and will pass over you, —and there shall be among you no plague to destroy, when I smite the land of Egypt.
Ọbara ahụ unu ga-ete nʼọnụ ibo ụlọ unu ga-abụ ihe ama igosi ebe unu bi, nʼihi na mgbe m hụrụ ọbara ahụ, aga m agafe unu. Ọ nwekwaghị ihe otiti ga-abịakwasị unu mgbe m ga-egbu ndị Ijipt.
14 So shall this day serve you for a memorial, and ye shall celebrate it, as a festival to Yahweh, —to your generations—as an age-abiding statute, shall ye celebrate it.
“Ụbọchị a ga-abụrụ unu ihe ncheta nye ọgbọ niile ndị na-eso nʼazụ. Unu ga-emekwa ya ka ọ bụrụ mmemme nye Onyenwe anyị. Ụkpụrụ nke na-adịgide adịgide site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ.
15 Seven days, unleavened cakes, shall ye eat, surely, on the first day, shall ye put away leaven, out of your houses, —for whosoever eateth what is leavened, then shall that soul be cut off out of Israel, from the first day, unto the seventh day.
Ụbọchị asaa ka unu ga-eri achịcha na-ekoghị eko. Nʼụbọchị mbụ nke ụbọchị asaa ahụ, ka unu ga-esite nʼụlọ unu wezuga ihe iko achịcha niile, nʼihi na onye ọbụla riri nri nke ihe na-eko achịcha dị nʼime ya site nʼụbọchị mbụ ruo nʼụbọchị nke asaa, aghaghị ibipụ ya site nʼala Izrel.
16 Both on the first day, a holy convocation, and on the seventh day—a holy convocation, shall there be to you, —no work, shall be done therein, save only what must be eaten by every soul, that alone, shall be done by you.
Unu ga-ewere ụbọchị mbụ na ụbọchị nke asaa, nke mmemme ahụ, nwee mkpọkọta dị nsọ. Onye ọbụla agaghị arụ ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị abụọ ndị a, karịakwa isi nri unu ga-eri.
17 So then ye shall observe the unleavened cakes, because on this self-same day, brought I forth your hosts out of the land of Egypt, —so then ye shall observe this day to your generations, as a statute age-abiding,
“Unu ga-edobekwa mmemme achịcha na-ekoghị eko nʼihi na ọ bụ nʼime otu ụbọchị a ka m sitere nʼala Ijipt kpọpụta unu dịka usuu ndị agha. Unu ga-emekwa mmemme ụbọchị a ka ọ bụrụ ụkpụrụ nke na-adịgide adịgide site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ
18 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month in the evening, shall ye eat unleavened cakes, —until the one-and-twentieth day of the month in the evening,
Nʼọnwa mbụ, nʼanyasị nke ụbọchị nke iri na anọ, ka unu ga-eri achịcha a na-ejighị ihe na-eko achịcha mee ruo nʼanyasị nke ụbọchị iri abụọ na otu.
19 For seven days, leaven, shall not be found in your houses, —for, whosoever eateth what is leavened, then shall that soul be cut off out of the assembly of Israel, whether sojourner or native of the land.
Nʼime ụbọchị asaa ahụ, agaghị ahụ ihe na-eko achịcha nʼụlọ unu. A ga-esite nʼọgbakọ ndị Izrel bipụ onye ọbụla riri ihe ọbụla nke ihe na-eko achịcha dị nʼime ya. Iwu a dịrị ndị ọbịa niile nʼala Izrel, dịkwara ndị nwa afọ ala.
20 Nothing leavened, shall ye eat, —in all your dwellings, shall ye eat unleavened cakes.
Unu agaghị eri ihe ọbụla e ji ihe na-eko achịcha mee. Nʼebe obibi unu niile, ọ bụ naanị achịcha na-ekoghị eko ka unu ga-eri.”
21 So then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, —Proceed and take for yourselves one of the flock according to your families, and slay the passover.
Mgbe ahụ, Mosis kpọkọtara ndị okenye ụmụ Izrel niile gwa ha okwu sị, “Gaanụ họpụta ụmụ atụrụ nʼihi agbụrụ unu niile, gbuonụ atụrụ ngabiga ndị a.
22 Then shall ye take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood which is in the basin, and strike the upper beam and the two door-posts, with the blood which is in the basin, —and, ye, shall not go forth any man out of the entrance of his house, until morning,
Were ahịhịa hisọp, denye ya nʼọbara si nʼatụrụ ndị a nke a ga-awụnye nʼefere, tee ya nʼelu ibo na nʼakụkụ abụọ nke ọnụ ụzọ ụlọ unu. Onye ọbụla nʼime unu agaghị apụ nʼezi tutu ruo ụtụtụ.
23 And Yahweh will pass along to plague the Egyptians, and when he beholdeth the blood upon the upper beam and upon the two door-posts, then will Yahweh pass over the entrance, and not suffer the destroyer to enter into your houses to inflict on you the plague.
Mgbe Onyenwe anyị ga-agafe igbu ndị Ijipt, ọ ga-ahụ ọbara ahụ nʼawara na mbudo ibo ọnụ ụzọ ụlọ unu. Ọ ga-agafe ụlọ unu, gharakwa ikwe ka onye mbibi bata nʼụlọ unu gbuo unu.
24 And ye shall observe this thing, —for a statute to thee and to thy sons unto times age-abiding.
“Unu ga-edobe mmemme a dịka iwu ga-adịgide nye unu na ụmụ unu.
25 And so it shall come to pass when ye shall enter into the land which Yahweh will give you as he hath spoken, —and ye shall observe this service;
Mgbe unu batara nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị ga-enye unu dịka o kwere na nkwa, unu ga-edobe ofufe a.
26 and it shall come to pass that your sons shall say unto you, —What is this your service?
Mgbe ụmụ unu ga-ajụ unu ajụjụ sị, ‘Gịnị ka ofufe a pụtara?’
27 Then shall ye say—A passover sacrifice, it is to Yahweh, who passed-over the houses of the sons of Israel, in Egypt, when he plagued the Egyptians but our houses, he delivered. Then did the people bend their heads and bow themselves down.
Unu ga-azaghachi ha sị, ‘Ọ bụ aja ngabiga anyị na-achụrụ Onyenwe anyị nʼihi na ọ gafere ụlọ ụmụ Izrel nʼala Ijipt, mgbe o gburu ndị Ijipt, ma o nweghị onye ọbụla nʼime anyị o gburu.’”
28 And the sons of Israel went their way and did, —as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron, so, did they.
Ụmụ Izrel mezuru ihe niile Onyenwe anyị gwara ha site nʼọnụ Mosis na Erọn.
29 And it came to pass, at midnight, that Yahweh, smote every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat upon his throne, unto the firstborn of the captive who was in the pit of his prison, —and every firstborn of beasts.
Nʼime etiti abalị ụbọchị ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gburu ndị ikom niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ nʼala Ijipt, malite nʼọkpara Fero onye nọ nʼocheeze ya, ruo nʼọkpara nke onye Ijipt nọ nʼụlọ mkpọrọ olulu. O gbukwara ụmụ anụ ụlọ niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ.
30 Then rose up Pharaoh by night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians, and there arose a great outcry throughout Egypt, —for there was not a house, where there was not one dead.
Nʼabalị ahụ kwa, Fero na ndị ozi ya, na ndị Ijipt niile biliri. Oke iti mkpu akwa dakwara nʼala Ijipt, nʼihi na ọ dịghị ezinaụlọ ọnwụ na-erughị.
31 So he called for Moses and for Aaron by night and said—Rise ye, go forth out of the midst of my people, both ye and the sons of Israel, —and go serve Yahweh according to your word;
Nʼotu abalị ahụ, Fero zipụrụ ozi ka a kpọ Mosis na Erọn. Mgbe ha bịara, ọ gwara ha sị, “Ngwa bilienụ, unu bụ ụmụ Izrel niile. Kewapụnụ onwe unu site nʼetiti anyị. Gaanụ, fee Onyenwe anyị unu ofufe dịka unu rịọrọ.
32 also, your flocks and your herds, take ye, as ye spake and go your way, —so shall ye bless, even me.
Durunụ igwe ehi na atụrụ unu mgbe unu na-aga. Gọziekwanụ m mgbe unu na-apụ.”
33 And the Egyptians became urgent with the people, to send them in haste out of the land, —for they said—We all, are dying.
Ndị Ijipt gbalịrị ime ka ụmụ Izrel hapụ ha ngwangwa. Ha sịrịtara onwe ha, “Ọ bụrụ na ụmụ Izrel ahapụghị anyị ugbu a, anyị niile ga-anwụkwa.”
34 So the people took up their dough, ere yet it was leavened, —with their kneading-bowls, bound up in their mantles on their shoulders,
Ya mere, ụmụ Izrel buuru ụtụ ọka e ji eme achịcha na-ekoghị eko, nke ha tinyere nʼefere e ji agwakọta ya. Ha ji akwa kechie ha, bukwasị ha nʼubu ha.
35 And the sons of Israel, did according to the word of Moses, —and asked of the Egyptians, articles of silver and articles of gold and mantles.
Ha mekwara ihe ndị ọzọ dịka Mosis gwara ha. Ha rịọrọ ndị Ijipt ka ha nye ha ihe iji ngwa nke ọlaọcha na ọlaedo, na uwe.
36 And Yahweh, gave the people favour in the eyes of the Egyptians and they gave them gladly, —so they spoiled the Egyptians.
Onyenwe anyị nyere ndị ya amara nʼihu ndị Ijipt, ha nyere ha ihe niile ha rịọrọ. Site nʼụzọ dị otu a, ụmụ Izrel napụtara ndị Ijipt ihe niile ha ji biri nʼụlọ.
37 Then did the sons of Israel break up from Rameses, towards Succoth, —about six hundred thousand foot of men grown, besides little ones.
Mgbe nke a gasịrị, ụmụ Izrel malitere ije ha site na Ramesis. Mgbe ha hapụrụ Ramesis, na-eje Sukọt, ha dị narị puku ndị ikom isii, na-agụghị ndị inyom na ụmụntakịrị.
38 Moreover also, a mixed multitude, came up with them, —flocks also, and herds, exceeding much cattle,
Ọtụtụ mmadụ dị iche iche sooro ha nʼije ha. Ha dukwa igwe anụ ụlọ, igwe ewu na atụrụ ha, nke dị ukwu nʼọnụọgụgụ.
39 Then baked they the dough which they had brought out of Egypt—into round unleavened cakes for it had not been leavened, —for they had been driven out of Egypt and could not tarry, and indeed no provisions, had they made ready for themselves.
Ha ji ụtụ ọka ha si Ijipt buputa mee achịcha na-ekoghị eko. Nʼihi na a chụpụrụ ha achụpụ site nʼIjipt, ha enweghị ezi ohere kwadooro onwe ha ihe oriri.
40 Now, the time during which the sons of Israel dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years.
Tupu ha ahapụ ala Ijipt, ụmụ Izrel ebiela nʼebe ahụ narị afọ anọ na iri afọ atọ.
41 And it came to pass at the end of four hundred and thirty years, yea it came to pass, on this self-same day, that all the hosts of Yahweh had come forth out of the land of Egypt.
Mgbe narị afọ anọ na iri afọ atọ zuru, nʼụbọchị ahụ o zuru, usuu ndị Onyenwe anyị niile hapụrụ Ijipt.
42 A night of solemn observances, it is unto Yahweh, for bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt, —this same night, pertaineth to Yahweh, for solemn observances by all the sons of Israel to their generations.
Onyenwe anyị chere nche nʼabalị ụbọchị ahụ maka ịkpọpụta ha site nʼala Ijipt. Nʼihi ya, abalị ụbọchị ahụ bụ mgbe pụrụ iche nye ụmụ Izrel maka iji iche nche sọpụrụ Onyenwe anyị nʼọgbọ ha niile.
43 And Yahweh said unto Moses and Aaron: This, is the statute of the passover, —No stranger, shall eat thereof;
Onyenwe anyị kpọrọ Mosis na Erọn gwa ha sị, “Ndị a bụ usoro iwu metụtara Mmemme Ngabiga: “Onye mba ọzọ agaghị eri anụ nwa atụrụ ahụ.
44 but, every man’s servant bought with silver, —when thou hast circumcised him, then, shall he eat thereof:
Ohu ọbụla a kwụrụ ụgwọ nʼisi ya ga-eri ya naanị ma e biri ya ugwu.
45 An alien or a hireling, shall not eat thereof.
Ohu e goro ọrụ, maọbụ onye ọbịa ọbụla agaghị eri ya.
46 In one house, shall it be eaten, thou shalt not take forth out of the house any of the flesh outside; and a, bone thereof, shalt thou not break.
“A ga-eri ya naanị nʼime otu ụlọ. Ọ gaghị apụ nʼezi. Unu agaghị atapịa ọkpụkpụ ọbụla nke nwa atụrụ ahụ.
47 All the assembly of Israel, shall keep it.
Nzukọ niile nke ụmụ Izrel ga-eme Mmemme Ngabiga a.
48 And when there may sojourn with thee a sojourner who may wish to keep a passover to Yahweh, there must be circumcised to him every male and then, may he draw near to keep it, so shall he be as a native of the land, —but no uncircumcised male, shall eat thereof.
“Onye mba ọzọ bi nʼetiti unu chọrọ isoro unu na Mmemme Ngabiga Onyenwe anyị aghaghị ibi ndị ikom niile nọ nʼezinaụlọ ya ugwu. Mgbe ahụ, ọ ga-abịaru nso isoro na mmemme, nʼihi na a ga-agụ ya dịka nwa afọ ala. Ọ dịghị onye ikom a na-ebighị ugwu ga-eri nri ahụ.
49 One law, shall there be for the native, and for the sojourner that sojourneth in your midst.
Otu iwu a dịrị nwa afọ ala na ndị ọbịa niile bi nʼala Izrel.”
50 Thus did all the sons of Israel, —as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron, so, did they.
Ụmụ Izrel mere ihe ndị a niile, dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere ha nʼiwu site nʼọnụ Mosis na Erọn.
51 And it came to pass, on this self-same day, that Yahweh brought forth the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt, by their hosts.
Ọ bụkwa nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ ka Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼala Ijipt dupụta ụmụ Izrel, dịka usuu ha niile si dị.
