< Exodus 12 >

1 Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me there in Egypt,
TUHAN berkata kepada Musa dan Harun di Mesir,
2 “[From now on], this month [will be] the first month of the year for you.
“Mulai sekarang, bulan ini akan menjadi bulan pertama dalam kalender tahunan kalian.
3 Tell all the Israeli people that in each family, the man who heads the family must select a lamb or a young goat for his household.
Umumkanlah kepada seluruh umat Israel: Pada hari kesepuluh bulan ini, setiap kepala keluarga harus mengambil seekor anak domba atau anak kambing.
4 If there are not enough people in his family to eat a whole [cooked] lamb, then his family and the family that lives next door may share one animal. Decide how many lambs you need according to the number of people in each family, and according to how much each person can eat.
Kalau jumlah anggota keluarganya terlalu sedikit untuk memakan habis seekor anak domba atau anak kambing, mereka boleh membaginya dengan keluarga tetangga terdekat sesuai jumlah anggota keluarga dan jumlah yang bisa dimakan oleh masing-masing orang.
5 The lambs or goats that you choose must be males, one-year-old, and they must not have any defects.
Kamu harus memilih anak domba atau anak kambing jantan yang berumur satu tahun dan tidak ada cacat.
6 You must take [special] care of these animals until the 14th day of the month. On that day, all the Israeli people must slaughter the lambs [or goats] in the evening.
“Setiap keluarga harus memelihara anak domba atau anak kambing itu hingga hari keempat belas bulan ini. Pada hari itu, waktu matahari terbenam, seluruh umat Israel harus menyembelih anak domba atau anak kambing tersebut.
7 Then they must take some of the blood [from the lambs or goats], and they must smear it on the doorposts and the (lintels/horizontal beams above the doorways) of the houses in which they will eat the meat.
Kemudian mereka harus mengoleskan darahnya pada kedua tiang pintu dan ambang atas pintu rumah tempat domba atau kambing itu akan dimakan.
8 They must roast the animals immediately and eat the meat that night. They must eat it with bread that is baked without yeast and with bitter herbs.
Malam itu juga, mereka harus memanggang dagingnya di atas api lalu memakannya dengan roti yang tidak beragi dan sayur pahit.
9 You must not eat any of the meat raw, and you must not boil the meat. You must roast it [whole], without cutting off the head or the legs or removing the internal parts.
Jangan memakannya mentah-mentah atau direbus dalam air. Anak domba atau kambing itu harus dipanggang utuh di atas api, termasuk kepala, kaki, dan semua bagian tubuhnya.
10 You must eat all the meat that evening; do not let any of the meat remain [to be eaten] the next morning. If any of the meat is left until the next morning, you must [completely] burn it.
Dagingnya harus dihabiskan pada malam itu juga. Jangan menyisakan daging hingga keesokan paginya. Apa pun yang tersisa harus dibakar habis sebelum pagi.
11 When you eat it, you must be dressed ready to travel, and you must eat it quickly. You must have your sandals on your feet and your walking stick in your hands. It will be a festival [called] Passover to [honor] me, Yahweh.
“Ini adalah permulaan dari Perayaan Paskah, yang senantiasa akan dirayakan untuk menghormati Aku, TUHAN kalian: Pada malam itu, kalian harus sudah mengenakan pakaian seperti orang yang siap bepergian jauh, mengenakan ikat pinggang, alas kaki, dan memegang tongkat. Lalu makanlah makanan itu dengan buru-buru.
12 On that night I will go through all the country of Egypt, and I will kill all the oldest males in Egypt, both humans and animals. [By doing this] I will show that all the gods in Egypt are worthless. [I can do this], because I am Yahweh, [the all-powerful God].
Malam itu, Aku akan berkeliling di seluruh Mesir dan membunuh setiap anak laki-laki yang sulung dan anak hewan jantan yang sulung. Aku akan menjatuhkan hukuman terhadap semua dewa Mesir, karena Akulah TUHAN.
13 The blood [that you smear on the doorways will be a mark to indicate] the houses in which you [Israelis] live. When I see the blood, I will [ignore and] pass by those houses, and I will not harm you [Israelis who live there], when I punish the Egyptians.
Darah pada pintu rumah kalian akan menandakan tempat kalian berada. Waktu Aku melihat darah itu, Aku akan melewatinya, dan bencana tidak akan menimpa kalian ketika Aku menyerang Mesir.
14 [Each year], you must celebrate this festival on this day, to remember [what I], Yahweh, [have done for you]. In all the generations to come, [each year] you must celebrate [this festival]. [It must continue] forever.
“Setiap tahun kalian harus memperingati hari itu dan mengadakan perayaan untuk TUHAN turun temurun. Lakukanlah itu sebagai suatu ketetapan untuk selamanya.
15 For seven days you must eat bread that has no yeast in it. On the first day of that week you must get rid of all the yeast that is in your houses. During those seven days, if anyone eats bread that is baked with yeast in it, [you must consider] that person to be no longer an Israeli.
Kalian harus makan roti yang tidak beragi selama tujuh hari. Pada hari pertama, kalian harus membuang semua ragi dari rumah kalian. Siapa pun yang memakan roti yang mengandung ragi selama tujuh hari itu harus disingkirkan dari antara umat Israel.
16 On the first day [of that week], you must (have a holy meeting/gather together to [worship] me). You must do the same thing on the seventh day. People must not work on those two days. The only work they may do is to prepare food for you to eat.
Pada tanggal 14 dan 20, yaitu hari pertama dan hari ketujuh dalam perayaan ini, kalian harus mengadakan ibadah besar untuk menyembah dan menghormati Aku. Dalam dua hari itu kalian tidak boleh melakukan pekerjaan apa pun kecuali untuk menyiapkan makanan.
17 [Every year] you must keep celebrating this festival of eating bread that has no yeast in it, because it will remind you that it was on this day that I brought all your tribal groups out of Egypt. So [every year], in all the generations to come, you must celebrate this day as a festival. It must continue forever.
“Sesudah Hari Paskah, keesokan harinya, kalian akan memperingati Perayaan Roti Tidak Beragi, agar kalian ingat bahwa hari ini Aku membawa kalian keluar dari Mesir. Kalian harus memperingati hari ini secara turun temurun, sebagai ketetapan selamanya.
18 In the first month of the year, on the 14th day of that month, the only bread you may eat is bread that has no yeast in it. You must keep doing that each day until the 21st day of that month. For those seven days you must not have any yeast in your house. [During that time], if anyone, either an Israeli or a foreigner, eats bread made with yeast, you must consider that person no longer to be an Israeli.
Mulai petang hari tanggal 14 sampai petang tanggal 21 dalam bulan pertama, kalian harus makan roti yang tidak beragi.
Selama tujuh hari itu, tidak boleh ada ragi sama sekali di dalam rumah kalian. Apabila seseorang makan sesuatu yang beragi, dia harus disingkirkan dari antara umat Israel, baik itu pendatang maupun orang Israel asli.
20 In your houses, do not eat anything that has yeast in it during those seven days.”
Kalian tidak boleh makan apa pun yang beragi. Makanlah roti yang tidak mengandung ragi di mana saja kalian tinggal.”
21 Then Moses/I summoned all the leaders of the Israeli people. He/I said to them, “Each family should select a lamb and kill it, [in order that you may eat it to celebrate the festival that will be called] ‘Passover’.
Kemudian Musa mengumpulkan semua tua-tua Israel dan berkata kepada mereka, “Pergilah dan pilihlah anak domba atau anak kambing untuk setiap keluarga dan sembelihlah sebagai kurban Paskah.
22 Let the lamb’s blood [drain into] a basin. Get a bunch/sprig of (hyssop/a very leafy plant) and dip it in the blood. Then smear some of the blood on the doorposts and the (lintels/beams above the doorways) [of your houses]. The people in each house must all stay inside the house until the next morning.
Ambillah segenggam tanaman hisop, celupkanlah ke dalam darah yang ditampung di baskom, lalu oleskan pada ambang atas dan kedua tiang pintu rumah kalian masing-masing. Tidak ada seorang pun yang boleh keluar rumah sampai besok paginya.
23 When Yahweh goes throughout Egypt to kill the [oldest male in each] Egyptian family, he will see the blood on the (lintels/beams of your doorways), and he will [ignore and] pass by those houses. He will not allow the angel who causes people to die to enter your houses and kill [any of] your [oldest sons].
TUHAN akan berkeliling di seluruh negeri untuk membunuh setiap anak sulung orang Mesir. Ketika Dia melihat rumah yang ada darahnya pada ambang atas pintu dan kedua tiang pintu, TUHAN akan melewatinya. Dia tidak akan membiarkan malaikat maut masuk ke rumah-rumah kalian dan membunuh setiap anak sulung kalian.
24 You and your descendants must celebrate this festival forever.
“Kamu semua harus menaati ketetapan ini, dan anak cucumu harus memperingatinya untuk selamanya.
25 And when you arrive in the land that Yahweh will be giving to you as he promised, you must keep celebrating this ritual [every year].
Setelah masuk ke negeri yang sudah dijanjikan TUHAN kepadamu, kamu harus terus melaksanakan perayaan ini.
26 When your children ask you, ‘What does this ritual mean?’,
Dan ketika anak-anakmu bertanya, ‘Apakah arti upacara ini?’
27 you must tell them, ‘This ritual is [to remember how our ancestors] sacrificed [lambs] on the night that Yahweh’s angel passed by the houses of the Israeli people [when they were] in Egypt. He killed the [oldest males/sons in all] the Egyptian houses, but he spared [the sons in] [MTY] our houses.’” After Moses/I told them this, they all bowed their heads and worshiped [Yahweh].
kamu akan menjawab, ‘Inilah persembahan Paskah untuk menghormati TUHAN, karena Dia sudah melewati rumah-rumah umat Israel di Mesir. Saat itu, Dia membunuh setiap anak laki-laki sulung orang Mesir, tetapi Dia membiarkan keluarga kita hidup.’” Setelah Musa menyampaikan semua itu, umat Israel bersujud menyembah TUHAN.
28 Then the Israeli people did what Yahweh had told Aaron and Moses/me [to tell them to do].
Kemudian umat Israel melakukan apa yang sudah TUHAN perintahkan kepada Musa dan Harun.
29 At midnight Yahweh killed all the oldest sons of the Egyptian people, all over Egypt. That included the king’s oldest son, the oldest sons of the prisoners in the dungeon/jail, and [the oldest sons of everyone else]. He also killed the oldest males of all the Egyptians’ livestock.
Pada tengah malam, TUHAN membunuh setiap anak laki-laki yang sulung di seluruh Mesir, mulai dari anak sulung pewaris takhta raja Mesir sampai anak sulung tahanan di penjara, juga setiap anak sulung ternak.
30 That night the king, all his officials, and [all the rest of] the Egyptian people awoke [and discovered what had happened]. They wailed loudly all over Egypt, because in every house, someone’s son had died.
Malam itu, raja Mesir beserta semua pejabatnya dan seluruh rakyat Mesir terbangun. Terdengarlah jerit tangis yang keras di seluruh Mesir, karena ada yang mati di setiap rumah.
31 That night the king summoned Aaron and Moses/me and said, “You and all the [other] Israeli people, must leave my country [immediately]! Go and worship Yahweh, as you requested!
Malam itu juga, raja memanggil Musa dan Harun untuk menghadapnya lalu berkata kepada mereka, “Pergi! Menjauhlah dari rakyat saya! Kalian dan semua umat Israel, pergilah menyembah TUHAN, dewamu itu, seperti yang kalian minta!
32 Take your flocks [of sheep and goats] and herds [of cattle], and leave! And ask Yahweh to bless me, also!”
Bawalah ternakmu seperti yang kalian katakan. Yang penting pergilah! Dan nanti kalian doakanlah saya juga!”
33 Then the Israeli people did as Moses/I had told them. They [went to] their Egyptian [neighbors] and asked them for silver and gold jewelry and clothing.
Rakyat Mesir mendesak umat Israel untuk segera meninggalkan negeri itu. Kata mereka, “Kami semua akan mati kalau kalian tidak pergi!”
34 Yahweh caused the Egyptian people to greatly respect the [Israeli] people, so they gave them what they asked for. In that way, they carried away the wealth of the Egyptian people.
Jadi, umat Israel membawa adonan roti mereka yang masih di dalam wadah adonan dan belum diragi, membungkusnya dengan jubah mereka, lalu memikulnya.
35 The Egyptians urged the [Israeli] people to leave their country quickly. They said, “[If you do not do that], we will all die!”
Sesuai perintah Musa sebelumnya, umat Israel meminta perhiasan emas, perak, dan pakaian dari orang Mesir tetangga mereka.
36 So the [Israeli] people [prepared to leave at once]. They took the bowls in which they mixed the dough to make bread, and the dough that was in the bowls without any yeast in it, and they wrapped the bowls in their cloaks. They put the bowls on their shoulders [and left].
TUHAN membuat rakyat Mesir bermurah hati terhadap umat Israel, dan mereka memberikan segala sesuatu yang diminta oleh umat Israel. Dengan cara demikian, umat Israel membawa keluar harta kekayaan orang Mesir.
37 The Israeli people traveled from Rameses [city] to Succoth [town]. There were about 600,000 men who went, in addition to the women and children.
Kemudian umat Israel berjalan dari Rameses ke Sukot. Jumlah laki-laki dewasa sekitar 600.000 orang, belum termasuk perempuan dan anak-anak.
38 Many other people who were not Israelis went along with them. There were also livestock, the flocks [of sheep and goats] and herds [of cattle].
Sejumlah besar orang yang bukan keturunan Israel juga ikut serta. Dan ada kawanan ternak yang sangat banyak.
39 On their way, they baked bread with the dough that they carried with them when they had been expelled from Egypt. The dough did not have yeast in it, because they were told to leave Egypt so quickly that they did not have enough time to get food ready to take with them, or enough time to mix yeast in the dough.
Mereka diusir keluar dari Mesir dengan sangat mendesak sehingga tidak punya waktu untuk menyiapkan bekal. Mereka hanya dapat memanggang roti dari adonan tidak beragi yang sempat mereka bawa dari Mesir.
40 The Israeli people had lived in Egypt 430 years.
Hari itu, genap 430 tahun umat Israel tinggal di Mesir, dan saat itu juga pasukan TUHAN meninggalkan negeri itu.
41 On the day that those 430 years ended, on that very day, all the tribes of Yahweh’s people left Egypt.
42 It was a night when Yahweh (protected/guarded over) them as he brought them out of Egypt. So this same night every year is a night that is dedicated to Yahweh, a night when the Israeli people in every generation [remember how] Yahweh protected our ancestors.
Pada malam itu, TUHAN menjaga umat Israel supaya Dia dapat membawa mereka keluar dari Mesir sesuai dengan waktu yang Dia tetapkan. Maka sebagai peringatan untuk menghormati TUHAN, setiap tahun pada malam yang sama seluruh umat Israel berjaga sepanjang malam.
43 Then Yahweh said this to Aaron and Moses/me: “These are my instructions about the Passover ritual: Do not let foreigners eat [the Passover meal]. But any male slaves that you have bought may eat it after you have circumcised them.
TUHAN berkata kepada Musa dan Harun, “Inilah ketetapan mengenai Paskah. Orang yang bukan bangsa Israel dilarang memakan makanan Paskah,
kecuali budak laki-laki yang sudah dibeli boleh memakannya apabila sudah disunat.
45 Do not let people who are living among you temporarily, or servants whom you have hired, eat [the Passover meal].
Pendatang ataupun pekerja upahan dari bangsa lain tidak boleh memakannya.
46 Each family must eat the Passover meal inside their own house. Do not take any of the food outside the house. And do not break any of the bones of the lamb that is sacrificed.
Setiap kurban Paskah harus dimakan di dalam satu rumah. Kamu tidak boleh membawa dagingnya keluar dari rumah itu, dan tidak boleh mematahkan satu pun tulangnya.
47 All the Israeli people must celebrate this festival.
Seluruh umat Israel harus merayakannya.
48 When someone from another country comes to live with you and wants to celebrate the Passover Festival, circumcise all the males in his household. Then they may eat the Passover meal, and you should treat those people as though they were born as Israelis. But do not allow men who have not been circumcised to eat the Passover meal.
“Bila pendatang dari bangsa lain yang tinggal di antara kalian ingin merayakan Paskah untuk menghormati-Ku, maka dia dan seluruh anggota keluarganya beserta para budak laki-lakinya wajib disunat. Setelah itu, mereka boleh merayakan Paskah. Mereka akan diperlakukan sama seperti orang Israel asli. Orang yang belum disunat tidak boleh memakan makanan Paskah.
49 These rules apply to people who were born as Israelis and to foreigners who come and live among you.”
Peraturan yang sama berlaku bagi orang Israel asli dan pendatang yang menetap bersama kalian.”
50 All the Israeli people obeyed Aaron and Moses/me and did what Yahweh had commanded.
Seluruh umat Israel taat dan melakukan tepat seperti yang sudah diperintahkan TUHAN kepada Musa dan Harun.
51 On that very day Yahweh brought all the tribes of the Israeli people out of Egypt.
Malam itu juga, TUHAN membawa pasukan Israel keluar dari Mesir.
