< Exodus 12 >

1 And he said Yahweh to Moses and to Aaron in [the] land of Egypt saying.
Ɛberɛ a na Mose ne Aaron da so wɔ Misraim asase so no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ,
2 The month this for you [will be the] beginning of months [will be] first it for you of [the] months of the year.
“Ɛfiri ɛnnɛ rekorɔ, bosome yi bɛyɛ bosome a ɛdi ɛkan wɔ Yudafoɔ asranna so.
3 Speak to all [the] congregation of Israel saying on the ten of the month this so they may take for themselves everyone a lamb for a household of fathers a lamb for the household.
Ka kyerɛ Israelfoɔ nyinaa sɛ, saa bosome yi ɛda a ɛtɔ so edu no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔbarima biara pɛ odwammaa baako de ma nʼabusua. Ɛsɛ sɛ efie biara nya odwammaa no baako.
4 And if it will be [too] small the household for being for a lamb and he will take he and neighbor his near to house his by [the] number of people each one to [the] mouth of food his you will estimate on the lamb.
Sɛ abusua bi mu nnipa sua a wɔrentumi nwe odwammaa no a, wɔtumi ne abusua bi a ɛbɛn wɔn wɔ mpasua no so a wɔn nso sua kyɛ odwammaa no. Aboa no kyɛ wɔ saa ɛkwan no so no gyina abusua no kɛseɛ ne ɛnam dodoɔ a wɔbɛtumi awe so.
5 A lamb unblemished male a son of a year it will be for you one of the lambs and one of the goats you will take.
Ɛsɛ sɛ aboa no yɛ deɛ wadi afe. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔyɛ odwan anaa abirekyie a ɔnnii dɛm.
6 And it will be for you for safekeeping until [the] four-teen day of the month this and they will slaughter it all [the] assembly of [the] congregation of Israel between the two evenings.
Monhwɛ saa mmoa a moayiyi wɔn yi yie nkɔsi ɔbosome a ɛdii ɛkan no ɛda a ɛtɔ so dunan no anwummerɛ. Afei Israel asafo nyinaa nkunkum wɔn nnwammaa no dasuo mu.
7 And they will take some of the blood and they will put [it] on [the] two the doorposts and on the lintels on the houses which they will eat it in them.
Wɔmfa wɔn mogya nsra efie biara aponnwa ho. Odwammaa a wɔbɛwe no wɔ fie hɔ no mogya na wɔmfa nyɛ saa ahyɛdeɛ yi.
8 And they will eat the meat in the night this roasted of fire and unleavened bread with bitter herbs they will eat it.
Anadwo, obiara bɛwe aboa no a wɔatoto no nam no bi. Wɔmfa burodo a ɛnkaeɛ ne awɔnwono nni.

Ɔbosome a ɛdi ɛkan no ɛda a ɛtɔ so dunan no anwummerɛ kɔsi nʼadaduonu ɛda baako so no, burodo a mmɔreka mfra mu nko ara na monni.
19 Seven days leaven not it will be found in houses your for - any [one who] eats a thing leavened and he will be cut off the person that from [the] congregation of Israel in the sojourner and in [the] native-born of the land.
Saa nnanson no mu, ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔhunu mmɔreka kakra bi koraa wɔ mo afie mu. Enti, obiara a ɔbɛdi aduane a mmɔreka wɔ mu no, wɔbɛyi no afiri Israel asafo kuo no mu. Saa mmara yi ka amamfrafoɔ a wɔne mo te ne wɔn a wɔwoo wɔn wɔ asase yi so nyinaa.

Mesane meti mu bio sɛ, saa nna no mu monnni biribiara a wɔde mmɔreka afra mu; monni burodo a mmɔreka mfra mu.”
21 And he summoned Moses all [the] elders of Israel and he said to them draw and take for yourselves sheep to clans your and slaughter the passover.
Afei, Mose frɛɛ Israel mpanimfoɔ nyinaa ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monkɔkyekyere odwammaa anaa abirekyie ba mma abusua biara, na monkum no sɛ Twam Afahyɛ aboa.

23 And he will pass through Yahweh to strike Egypt and he will see the blood on the lintels and on [the] two the doorposts and he will pass over Yahweh over the doorway and not he will permit the destroyer to come into houses your to strike [you].
Awurade bɛtwam afa asase yi so akunkum Misraimfoɔ. Na sɛ ɔhunu sɛ mogya wɔ aponnwatifi no ne aponnwa mmienu no ho a, ɔbɛtwa saa efie no ho akɔ a ɔremma ɔsɛefoɔ no nwura hɔ nkunkum mo mmakan.
24 And you will keep the word this to a decree for yourself and for children your until perpetuity.
“Na monkae sɛ yei yɛ mmara a ɛwɔ hɔ daa ma mo ne mo asefoɔ.
25 And it will be that you will come into the land which he will give Yahweh to you just as he said and you will keep the service this.
Na sɛ moba asase a Awurade de bɛma mo sɛdeɛ ɔhyɛɛ mo ho bɔ no so a, mobɛkɔ so adi afahyɛ no.
26 And it will be that they will say to you children your what? [is] the service this to you.
Na sɛ mo mma bisa mo sɛ, ‘Yeinom nyinaa ase ne sɛn; saa afahyɛ yi fa ɛdeɛn ho a,
27 And you will say [is] a sacrifice of passover it to Yahweh who he passed over over [the] houses of [the] people of Israel in Egypt when struck he Egypt and houses our he delivered and it bowed low the people and they bowed down.
mobɛbua wɔn sɛ, ɛyɛ Twam Afahyɛ afɔdeɛ ma Awurade. Ɔtwaa Israelfoɔ afie ho wɔ Misraim. Ɛwom sɛ ɔkunkumm Misraimfoɔ deɛ, nanso ɔgyaa yɛn mmusua.’” Ɛberɛ a Mose kasa wieeɛ no, nnipa no nyinaa koto sɔreeɛ.
28 And they went and they did [the] people of Israel just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses and Aaron so they did.
Na Israelfoɔ no dii Mose ne Aaron ahyɛdeɛ no so.
29 And it was - in [the] middle of the night and Yahweh he struck every firstborn in [the] land of Egypt from [the] firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on throne his unto [the] firstborn of the prisoner who [was] in [the] house of the cistern and every firstborn of livestock.
Ɛda no ara anadwo dasuo mu Awurade kunkumm mmarimaa a wɔyɛ abakan a wɔwɔ Misraim asase so nyinaa, ɛfiri Farao babarima panin so kɔsi odeduani babarima panin ne anantwie nso mmakan nyinaa.
30 And he arose Pharaoh night he and all servants his and all Egypt and it was a cry great in Egypt for there not [was] a house where there not there [was] a dead [person].
Afei, Farao ne ne mpanimfoɔ ne nnipa a wɔwɔ Misraim nyinaa sɔree anadwo no. Misraiman no nyinaa twaa agyaadwoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, efie biara nni hɔ a onipa anwu wɔ mu.
31 And he summoned Moses and Aaron night and he said arise go out from among people my both you as well as [the] people of Israel and go serve Yahweh as said you.
Enti, Farao frɛɛ Mose ne Aaron anadwo no ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Mesrɛ mo, mo nyinaa montu mfiri ha. Monkɔsom Awurade sɛdeɛ mokaeɛ no.
32 Both flock[s] your as well as herd[s] your take just as you said and go and you will bless also me.
Momfa mo nnwan ne mo anantwie na monkɔ. Nanso monhyira me ansa na moakɔ.”
33 And it urged Egypt on the people to hurry to send away them from the land for they said all of us [are] about to die.
Misraimfoɔ no nyinaa ani beree Israelfoɔ no so pampam wɔn sɛ wɔmfiri asase no so ntɛm, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔkaa sɛ, “Yɛbɛwuwu.”
34 And it carried off the people dough its before it was leavened kneading troughs their [were] bound up in clothes their on shoulder their.
Israelfoɔ no faa wɔn mmɔre a wɔafɔtɔ a mmɔreka mfra mu, na wɔde wɔn ntadeɛ kyekyeree wɔn mmɔrefɔtɔ nnaka de sisii wɔn mmati so.
35 And [the] people of Israel they did according to [the] word of Moses and they asked from Egypt articles of silver and articles of gold and clothes.
Na Israelfoɔ no asrɛsrɛ dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ adwinneɛ ne ntadeɛ afiri Misraimfoɔ no nkyɛn sɛdeɛ Mose kaa sɛ wɔnyɛ no.
36 And Yahweh he gave [the] favor of the people in [the] eyes of Egypt and they granted [the] request them and they plundered Egypt.
Awurade maa Misraimfoɔ no hunuu Israelfoɔ no mmɔbɔ enti wɔmaa wɔn wɔn abisadeɛ nyinaa. Ɛnam saa yɛ so maa Israelfoɔ no twee Misraimfoɔ ahonyadeɛ nyinaa kɔeɛ.
37 And they set out [the] people of Israel from Rameses Succoth towards [were] about six hundred thousand foot soldier[s] the men apart from little one[s].
Anadwo no ara, Israelfoɔ no siim firii Rameses kɔɔ Sukot. Na wɔn dodoɔ yɛ nnipa mpem ahansia a wɔnam fam, a mmaa ne mmɔfra de wɔankan wɔn anka ho.
38 And also a mixed company numerous it went up with them and flock[s] and herd[s] livestock numerous very.
Nnipa ahodoɔ pii bi a wɔnyɛ Israelfoɔ kaa wɔn ho kɔeɛ. Wɔde wɔn nnwan ne wɔn anantwie nyinaa kaa wɔn ho.
39 And they baked the dough which they had brought out from Egypt bread cakes unleavened bread for not it was leavened for they had been driven out from Egypt and not they had been able to delay and also provision[s] not they had made for themselves.
Wɔduruu baabi a wɔpɛ sɛ wɔdidi no, wɔde mmɔre a wɔamfa mmɔreka amfra a wɔde kɔeɛ no bi too burodo diiɛ. Na mmɔreka nni mu, ɛfiri sɛ, Misraimfoɔ no pamoo wɔn. Ɛno enti wɔannya mu ɛkwan anyɛ aduane a wɔbɛdi wɔ ɛkwan so.
40 And [the] dwelling of [the] people of Israel which they dwelt in Egypt [was] thirty year[s] and four hundred year[s].
Israelfoɔ no tenaa Misraim mfeɛ ahanan ne aduasa.
41 And it was from [the] end of thirty year[s] and four hundred year[s] and it was on [the] substance of the day this they went out all [the] hosts of Yahweh from [the] land of Egypt.
Na ɛda a wɔdii mfeɛ ahanan ne aduasa no pɛ na Awurade nkurɔfoɔ nyinaa firii asase no so.
42 [was] a night of Vigil it for Yahweh to bring out them from [the] land of Egypt it the night this for Yahweh vigil for all [the] people of Israel to generations their.

43 And he said Yahweh to Moses and Aaron this [is] [the] statute of the passover any son of foreignness not he will eat in it.
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron sɛ, “Twam Afahyɛ no ho mmara ni: “Ahɔhoɔ biara nnwe odwammaa no ɛnam no bi.
44 And every slave of anyone [the] purchase of silver and you will circumcise him then he will eat in it.

45 A resident alien and a hired laborer not he will eat in it.
Ɔpaani anaa ɔhɔhoɔ biara nnwe bi.
46 In a house one it will be eaten not you will bring out from the house any of the meat [the] outside towards and a bone not you will break in it.
“Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔwe Twam Afahyɛ aboa biara wɔ efie baako mu. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔwe ɛnam no wɔ fie. Ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔwe ɛnam no fa biara wɔ abɔntene. Ɛnsɛ sɛ mobɔ dompe mu.

48 And if he will sojourn with you a sojourner and he will observe a passover to Yahweh he will be circumcised of him every male and then he will draw near to observe it and he will be like [the] native-born of the land and any uncircumcised [man] not he will eat in it.
“Ahɔhoɔ a mo ne wɔn te no nso, sɛ wɔpɛ sɛ wɔdi Twam Afahyɛ no bi a, ɛsɛ sɛ mmarima a wɔwɔ wɔn mu no nyinaa twa twetia ansa na wɔaba ne mo abɛdi. Na sɛ ɛyɛ saa a, wɔbɛyɛ deɛ wɔwoo wɔn too mu mu.
49 Law one it will be[long] to the native-born and to the sojourner who sojourns in midst of you.

50 And they did all [the] people of Israel just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses and Aaron so they did.
Enti, Israelfoɔ no nyinaa dii Awurade mmara no so sɛdeɛ ɔhyɛɛ Mose ne Aaron no.
51 And it was on [the] substance of the day this he brought out Yahweh [the] people of Israel from [the] land of Egypt on hosts their.
Ɛda no ara na Awurade yii Israelfoɔ no firii Misraim asase so.
