Exodus 13
1 And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
तब परमप्रभुले मोशालाई यसो भन्नुभयो,
2 Hallow to me every firstborn, that which any female first beareth among the sons of Israel, among men and among beasts, —mine! it is.
“इस्राएलीहरूमध्येका मानिस र पशुहरू दुवैबाट पहिले जन्मेका सबै नरलाई मेरो निम्ति अलग गर् । पहिले जन्मेकाहरू मेरा हुन् ।”
3 And Moses said unto the people—[Ye are] to remember this day, on which ye came forth out of Egypt out of the house of slaves, that with strength of hand, did Yahweh bring you forth from hence, —there shall not, therefore be eaten anything leavened.
मोशाले मानिसहरूलाई भने, “आजको दिन सम्झना राख । आजकै दिन परमप्रभुको शक्तिशाली हातद्वारा तिमीहरू मिश्रको दासत्वबाट यस ठाउँमा ल्याइएका छौ । खमिर हालेको कुनै पनि रोटी खाइनेछैन ।
4 To-day, are, ye, coming forth, —in the month Abib.
तिमीहरू आबीब महिनाको आजकै दिनमा मिश्रबाट बाहिर जाँदै छौ ।
5 And it shall be, when Yahweh shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Amorite, and the Hivite and the Jebusite, which he sware to thy fathers to give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, then shalt thou serve with this service, in this month.
परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूलाई कनानी, हित्ती, एमोरी, हिव्वी र यबूसीहरूको दूध र मह बग्ने देशमा लैजानुहुँदा तिमीहरूले यही महिनामा आराधनाको यो चाड मान्नू ।
6 Seven days, shalt thou eat unleavened cakes, —and on the seventh day, [shall be] a festival to Yahweh.
सात दिनसम्म तिमीहरूले खमिर नहालेको रोटी खानू । सातौँ दिनमा परमप्रभुको निम्ति चाड हुनेछ ।
7 Unleavened cakes, shall be eaten for the seven days, —neither shall there be seen with thee anything leavened, nor shall there be seen with thee leaven, within any of thy bounds,
सात दिनसम्म खमिर नहालेको रोटी खानू । खमिर हालेको रोटी तिमीहरूका बिचमा नदेखियोस् ।
8 And thou shalt tell thy son, on that day, saying, —[This is] because, of that which Yahweh did for me, when he brought me forth out of Egypt.
त्यस दिन तिमीहरूले आ-आफ्ना छोराछोरीहरूलाई भन्नू, 'म मिश्रबाट बाहिर आउँदा परमप्रभुले मेरो निम्ति जे गर्नुभएको थियो, त्यसैको खातिर मैले यसो गरेको हुँ ।'
9 And it shall be to thee for a sign upon thy hand and for a memorial between thine eyes, in order that the law of Yahweh may be in thy mouth, —for with a strong hand, did Yahweh bring thee forth out of Egypt.
यो तिमीहरूका निम्ति हातमा र तिमीहरूको निधारमा सम्झना गराउने कुरो हुनेछ । परमप्रभुको शक्तिशाली हातले तिमीहरूलाई मिश्रबाट बाहिर ल्याएकोले तिमीहरूको मुखमा यो उहाँको विधि हुनेछ ।
10 So shalt thou observe this statute in its appointed time, —from year to year.
त्यसकारण वर्षैपिच्छे तिमीहरूले तोकिएको समयमा यो विधिको पालन गर्नू ।
11 And it shall be when Yahweh shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanite, as he sware to thee and to thy fathers, —and shalt give it thee,
परमप्रभुले तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका पिता-पुर्खाहरूसित शपथ खानुभएझैँ उहाँले तिमीहरूलाई कनानीहरूको देशमा पुर्याई त्यो देश तिमीहरूलाई दिनुहुँदा
12 that thou shalt set apart whatsoever is born first, to Yahweh; and, of all firstlings of beasts which thou shalt have, the males, shall pertain to Yahweh.
तिमीहरूले हरेकको गर्भको पहिले फल परमप्रभुको निम्ति अलग गर्नू ।
13 But every firstling of an ass, shalt thou redeem with a lamb or if thou wilt not redeem it, then thou shalt break its neck, —but every firstborn of men among thy sons, shalt thou redeem.
गधाको हरेक पहिलो फललाई एउटा पाठोद्वारा छुटाउनू । त्यो छुटाएनौ भने त्यसको घाँटी निमोठिदिनू । तर तिमीहरूका सबै छोराका बिचमा पहिलो फललाई तिमीहरूले छुटाउनैपर्छ ।
14 And it shall be when thy son shall ask thee in time to come, saying, What is this? Then shalt thou say unto him: With strength of hand, did Yahweh bring us forth out of Egypt out of the house of slaves.
'यसको मतलब के हो?' भनी पछि तिमीहरूको छोरोले सोध्दा तिमीहरूले यसो भन्नू, 'परमप्रभुले शक्तिशाली हातद्वारा हामीलाई मिश्रको दासत्वबाट निकालेर ल्याउनुभयो ।
15 And it came to pass when Pharaoh had shown himself too hardened to let us go, then did Yahweh slay every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of men even unto the firstborn of beasts. For this cause, am, I, sacrificing to Yahweh whatsoever is born first, of the males, and every firstborn of my sons, must I redeem.
हठी भएर फारोले हामीलाई जान दिन इन्कार गर्दा परमप्रभुले मिश्र देशमा मानिस र पशु दुवैका सबै पहिले जन्मेकाहरूलाई मार्नुभयो । त्यसकारण म हरेक पशुको पहिले जन्मेको नरलाई परमप्रभुको निम्ति बलिदान चढाउँछु, र मेरा छोराहरूमध्ये जेठोलाई छुटाउँछु ।'
16 And it shall be for a sign upon thy hand, and for frontlets between thine eyes, —that, with strength of hand, did Yahweh bring us forth out of Egypt.
यो तिमीहरूको हात र तिमीहरूको निधारमा सम्झना दिलाउने कुरो हुनेछ किनकि परमप्रभुको शक्तिशाली हातद्वारा उहाँले हामीलाई मिश्रबाट बाहिर ल्याउनुभएको थियो ।”
17 And it came to pass when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God did not lead by the land-way of the Philistines, although it was near, —for God said—Lest the people be dismayed when they see war and turn back to Egypt.
फारोले मानिसहरूलाई जान दिएपछि परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई पलिश्तीको देशको बाटो नजिकै भए तापनि त्यहाँबाट भएर अगुवाइ गर्नुभएन । किनकि उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “तिनीहरूले लडाइँ देखेर तिनीहरूको मन बद्ली तिनीहरू मिश्रमा नै फर्केर जान सक्छन् ।”
18 So God took the people round the desert-way of the Red Sea, —and the sons of Israel went up armed, out of the land of Egypt.
त्यसैले परमेश्वरले ती मानिसहरूलाई उजाड-स्थानको बाटो भएर लाल समुद्रतिर लैजानुभयो । इस्राएलीहरू युद्धको लागि सशस्त्र भई मिश्र देशबाट अगि बढे ।
19 And Moses took the bones of Joseph, with him, —for he had, taken an oath, of the sons of Israel saying, God will, surely visit, you, so then ye shall carry up my bones from hence with you.
मोशाले योसेफको अस्थि आफूसितै लगे किनकि योसेफले इस्राएलीहरूलाई यसरी गम्भीरतापूर्वक शपथ खान लगाएका थिए, “निश्चय नै परमेश्वरले तिमीहरूलाई छुटकारा दिनुहुनेछ र तिमीहरूले मेरो अस्थि आफूसितै लैजानू ।”
20 And they brake up from Succoth, —and encamped in Etham, at the edge of the desert.
इस्राएलीहरू सुक्कोतबाट यात्रा गरी उजाड-स्थानको नजिकै एथाममा आइपुगे र त्यहाँ तिनीहरूले पाल टाँगे ।
21 Now, Yahweh, was going before them—by day, in a pillar of cloud to lead them the way, and by night, in a pillar of fire to give them light, —that they might journey day and night:
परमप्रभु दिनमा बादलको खाँबो बनी तिनीहरूको अगिअगि जानुहुन्थ्यो । रातमा आगोको खाँबो बनी उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई ज्योति दिनुहुन्थ्यो । यसरी तिनीहरू दिन र रातमा यात्रा गर्न सक्थे ।
22 the pillar of cloud by day ceased not, nor the pillar of fire by night, —from before the people.
परमप्रभुले दिनमा बादलको खाँबो र रातमा आगोको खाँबो मानिसहरूबाट हटाउनुभएन ।
