Exodus 12
1 Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me there in Egypt,
परमप्रभु मिश्र देशमा मोशा र हारूनसित बोल्नुभयो । उहाँले भन्नुभयो,
2 “[From now on], this month [will be] the first month of the year for you.
“तिमीहरूका लागि यो महिनाहरूको सुरु हुनेछ । यो महिना तिमीहरूका लागि वर्षको पहिलो महिन हुनेछ ।
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.
इस्राएलको समुदायलाई भन्, 'यो महिनाको दसौँ दिनमा हरेक परिवारले हरेक घरानाको लागि एउटा-एउटा पाठो ल्याउनुपर्छ ।
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.
एउटा पाठोको लागि घराना ज्यादै सानो भएमा त्यो घराना र नजिकैको छिमेकी मिलेर एउटा थुमा वा पाठो ल्याउनुपर्छ जुन ती मानिसहरूको सङ्ख्याको लागि पर्याप्त हुनेछ । हरेकलाई खानको लागि यो पर्याप्त हुनेछ ।
5 The lambs or goats that you choose must be males, one-year-old, and they must not have any defects.
त्यसैले सबैलाई खुवाउन तिनीहरूले पर्याप्त मासु तयार गर्नुपर्छ । तिमीहरूको थुमा वा पाठो खोटरहित हुनुपर्छ र यो एक वर्षको हुनुपर्छ । तिमीहरूले भेडा वा बाख्राहरूबाट त्यो लिनू ।
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.
तिमीहरूले यसलाई त्यो महिनाको चौधौँ दिनसम्म राख्नुपर्छ । त्यसपछि इस्राएलको सारा समुदायले यी पशुहरूलाई साँझमा मार्नू ।
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.
जुन-जुन घरमा त्यो मासु खाइन्छ, त्यहाँ तिमीहरूले केही रगत लिई घरको ढोकाको चौकोसका दुईपट्टिका खम्बाहरू र माथिल्लो भागमा लगाऊन् ।
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.
त्यस रात तिमीहरूले आगोमा पोलेर त्यो मासु खानू । तितो सागसित खमिर नहालेको रोटीसितै तिमीहरूले त्यो खानू ।
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.
काँचो वा पानीमा उमालेर नखाओ । बरु, यसको टाउको, यसका खुट्टा र भित्री भागहरूसमेत आगोमा पोलेर खाओ ।
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.
बिहानसम्ममा कुनै पनि भाग नउबार्नू । बिहानसम्म केही उब्रियो भने त्यसलाई जलाइदिनू ।
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.
पटुका कसेर, खुट्टामा जुत्ता लगाएर र हातमा लट्ठी बोकेर तिमीहरूले खानू । तिमीहरूले हतारसँग खानुपर्छ । यो परमप्रभुको निस्तार-चाड हो ।
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].
परमप्रभु भन्नुहुन्छः म त्यस रात मिश्र देश भएर जानेछु र मिश्र देशका मानिस र गाईवस्तुका सबै पहिले जन्मेकाहरूलाई आक्रमण गर्नेछु । म मिश्रका सबै देवी-देवतालाई दण्ड दिनेछु । म परमप्रभु हुँ ।
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.
म तिमीहरूकहाँ आउँदा रगत तिमीहरूको घरमा चिन्ह हुनेछ । मैले रगत देखेपछि मैले मिश्र देशमा आक्रमण गर्दा तिमीहरूलाई छाडिदिनेछु । यो विपत्तिले तिमीहरूलाई नाश गर्नेछैन ।
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.
यो दिन तिमीहरूका लागि सम्झनाको दिन हुनेछ र यसलाई तिमीहरूले परमप्रभुको निम्ति चाडको रूपमा मान्नू । तिमीहरूको पुस्तौँसम्म रहिरहने विधिको रूपमा यसलाई तिमीहरूले सधैँ मान्नू ।
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.
सात दिनसम्म तिमीहरूले खमिर नहालेको रोटी खानू । पहिलो दिनमा तिमीहरूले आ-आफ्ना घरहरूबाट खमिर हटाउनू । पहिलो दिनदेखि सातौँ दिनसम्म खमिर हालेको रोटी खाने मान्छे जोसुकैलाई पनि तिमीहरूले इस्राएलबाट बहिष्कार गर्नू ।
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.
पहिलो दिनमा मेरो लागि अलग गरिएको समुदाय भेला होस् र सातौँ दिनमा पनि यस्तै भेला होस् । यी दिनमा कुनै पनि काम गरिनेछैन । तिमीहरूले केवल खानको लागि पकाउने काम गर्नू । तिमीहरूले गर्न सक्ने काम यही मात्र हुनेछ ।
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.
तिमीहरूले यो अखमिरी रोटीको चाड मान्नैपर्छ किनकि यही दिनमा नै मैले तिमीहरूका सशत्र मानिसहरूलाई दल-दल गरी मिश्र देशबाट ल्याएको हुनेछु ।
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.
तिमीहरूले यसलाई पुस्तौँसम्म मान्नू । यो तिमीहरूका निम्ति सधैँ एउटा विधि हुनेछ । वर्षको पहिलो महिनाको चौधौँ दिनको साँझदेखि त्यस महिनाको एक्काइसौँ दिनको साँझसम्म तिमीहरूले अखमिरी रोटी खानू ।
यी सात दिनमा तिमीहरूका घरहरूमा कुनै खमिर पाइनुहुँदैन । खमिर हालेको रोटी खाने जोसुकै इस्राएलको समुदायबाट बहिष्कृत हुनेछ, चाहे त्यो व्यक्ति विदेशी होस् या तिमीहरूकै देशमा जन्मेको होस् ।
20 In your houses, do not eat anything that has yeast in it during those seven days.”
खमिरबाट बनेको कुनै पनि थोक तिमीहरूले नखानू । तिमीहरू जहाँ बसे तापनि तिमीहरूले खमिर नहालेको रोटी मात्र खानू ।”
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’.
तब मोशाले इस्राएलका सबै धर्म-गुरुलाई बोलाउन पठाएर भने, “गएर आ-आफ्नो परिवारको लागि पर्याप्त हुने गरी थुमा वा पाठो छनौट गरेर त्यसलाई निस्तार-चाडको लागि मार ।
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.
त्यसपछि हिसपको झुप्पा लिई भाँडोभित्र भएको रगतमा चोप । ढोकाको माथिल्लो भाग र दुईवटै चौकोसमा त्यसलाई छ्याप्नू । बिहान नभएसम्म कोही पनि आफ्नो घरको ढोकाबाहिर नजानू ।
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].
किनकि मिश्रीहरूलाई प्रहार गर्न परमप्रभु यो देश भएर जानुहुनेछ । जब उहाँले ढोकाको माथिल्लो भाग र दुईवटै चौकोसमा रगत देख्नुहुनेछ तब उहाँले तिमीहरूको ढोकालाई छाडिदिनुहुनेछ र विनाश गर्नेलाई तिमीहरूलाई प्रहार गर्न तिमीहरूका घरहरूमा आउन अनुमति दिनुहुनेछैन ।
24 You and your descendants must celebrate this festival forever.
तिमीहरूले यस घटनालाई मान्नुपर्छ । यो तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका सन्तानको लागि सदाको निम्ति एउटा विधि हुनेछ ।
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].
परमप्रभुले तिमीहरूलाई प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ उहाँले तिमीहरूलाई दिनुहुने देशमा तिमीहरू प्रवेश गर्दा तिमीहरूले यो आराधनाको कामलाई मान्नू ।
26 When your children ask you, ‘What does this ritual mean?’,
तिमीहरूका छोराछोरीहरूले 'यो आराधनाको कामको अर्थ के हो?' भनी सोध्दा
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].
तिमीहरूले जवाफ दिनू, “यो परमप्रभुको निस्तार-चाडको बलिदान हो किनकि परमप्रभुले मिश्रमा मिश्रीहरूलाई प्रहार गर्नुहुँदा इस्राएलीहरूका घरलाई छाडिदिनुभएको थियो । उहाँले हाम्रा घरानाहरूलाई मुक्त गरिदिनुभयो' ।” त्यसपछि मानिसहरूले शिर निहुराई परमप्रभुको आराधना गरे ।
28 Then the Israeli people did what Yahweh had told Aaron and Moses/me [to tell them to do].
इस्राएलीहरू गए र परमप्रभुले मोशा र हारूनलाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ तिनीहरूले गरे ।
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.
मध्यरातमा परमप्रभुले मिश्र देशमा सिंहासनमा बस्ने फारोको जेठो छोरोदेखि लिएर झ्यालखानामा बस्ने व्यक्तिको जेठो छोरोसम्म र गाईवस्तुका सबै पहिले जन्मेकाहरूलाई प्रहार गर्नुभयो ।
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.
फारो, तिनका सबै अधिकारी र सबै मिश्रीहरू रातमा उठे । मिश्रमा ठुलो रुवाबासी भएको थियो किनकि मान्छे नमेरको कुनै घर थिएन ।
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!
रातमा फारोले मोशा र हारूनलाई बोलाउन पठाए र भने, “उठ, तिमी र इस्राएलीहरू मेरा मानिसहरूका बिचबाट निस्केर जाओ । तिमीहरूले चाहेजस्तै गएर परमप्रभुको आराधना चढाओ ।
32 Take your flocks [of sheep and goats] and herds [of cattle], and leave! And ask Yahweh to bless me, also!”
तिमीहरूले भनेजस्तै तिमीहरूका गाईवस्तु र भेडा-बाख्राहरू लिएर जाओ र मलाई पनि आशिष् देओ ।”
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.
तिनीहरूलाई बाहिर पठाउन मिश्रीहरू निकै हतारमा थिए किनकि तिनीहरूले भने, “हामी सबै मर्नेछौँ ।”
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.
त्यसैले मानिसहरूले खमिर नमिसाइएको मुछेको पिठोको डल्लो लिए । तिनीहरूका मुछ्ने आह्रीहरू पहिले तिनीहरूका लुगा र तिनीहरूका कुममा बाँधिएका थिए ।
35 The Egyptians urged the [Israeli] people to leave their country quickly. They said, “[If you do not do that], we will all die!”
अब इस्राएलका मानिसहरूले मोशाले भनेझैँ गरे । तिनीहरूले मिश्रीहरूबाट चाँदी, सुनका वस्तुहरूसाथै लुगाहरू मागे ।
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].
परमप्रभुले मिश्रीहरूलाई इस्राएलीहरूलाई खुसी तुल्याउन उत्सुक तुल्याइदिनुभएको थियो । त्यसैले इस्राएलीहरूले जे मागे तापनि मिश्रीहरूले दिए । यसरी इस्राएलीहरूले मिश्रीहरूलाई लुटे ।
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.
इस्राएलीहरूले रामसेसबाट सुक्कोतमा यात्रा गरे । स्त्री र केटाकेटीहरूबाहेक पैदल हिँड्ने तिनीहरूको सङ्ख्या करिब ६,००,००० थियो ।
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].
तिनीहरूका साथमा अन्य धेरै मानिस अनि गाईवस्तु र भेडा-बाख्रा पनि थिए ।
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.
तिनीहरूले मिश्रबाट ल्याएका पिठोको डल्लोबाट अखमिरी रोटी बनाए । यो खमिरविनाको थियो किनकि तिनीहरू मिश्रबाट धपाइएका थिए र खाना तयार गर्न तिनीहरूको लागि समय थिएन ।
40 The Israeli people had lived in Egypt 430 years.
इस्राएलीहरू मिश्रमा ४३० वर्षसम्म बसेका थिए ।
41 On the day that those 430 years ended, on that very day, all the tribes of Yahweh’s people left Egypt.
४३० वर्षको अन्तिम दिनमा परमप्रभुका सबै सशस्त्र दलहरू मिश्र देशबाट बाहिरिए ।
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.
यो जागा रहनुपर्ने रात थियो किनकि परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई मिश्र देशबाट रातमा बाहिर निकालेर ल्याउनुभएको थियो । यो इस्राएलीहरूको पुस्तौँसम्म तिनीहरूले पालन गर्नुपर्ने परमप्रभुको रात थियो ।
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.
परमप्रभुले मोशा र हारूनलाई भन्नुभयो, “निस्तार-चाडको नियम यस्तो छः यसमा कुनै पनि परदेशीले भाग नलिओस् ।
तर दाम तिरेर किनिएको हरेक इस्राएली दासको खतना गरिएपछि त्यसले यो खान सक्छ ।
45 Do not let people who are living among you temporarily, or servants whom you have hired, eat [the Passover meal].
विदेशीहरू र भाडामा लिइएका नोकरहरूले यो खानाको कुनै पनि भाग नखानू ।
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.
एउटै घरमा यसलाई खाइनुपर्छ । तिमीहरूले घरबाट कुनै पनि खाना बाहिर नलैजानू र यसको कुनै पनि हड्डी नभाँच्नू ।
47 All the Israeli people must celebrate this festival.
इस्राएलका सारा समुदायले यसको पालन गर्नू ।
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.
कुनै परदेशी तिमीहरूका बिचमा बसेको छ र त्यसले परमप्रभुको निम्ति निस्तार-चाड मान्न चाहन्छ भने त्यसका सबै पुरुष नातेदारहरूको खतना गरिनुपर्छ । त्यसपछि मात्र त्यसले यो चाड मान्न पाउँछ । त्यो देशमै जन्मेका मानिसहरूजस्तै एक हुनेछ । तर बेखतने व्यक्तिले यसबाट खान पाउनेछैन ।
49 These rules apply to people who were born as Israelis and to foreigners who come and live among you.”
स्वदेशी र तिमीहरूका बिचमा बसोबास गर्ने परदेशी दुवैलाई उही नियम लागु हुनेछ ।”
50 All the Israeli people obeyed Aaron and Moses/me and did what Yahweh had commanded.
त्यसैले परमप्रभुले मोशा र हारूनलाई आज्ञा गर्नुभएझैँ सबै इस्राएलीले त्यसै गरे ।
51 On that very day Yahweh brought all the tribes of the Israeli people out of Egypt.
ठिक त्यही दिन परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूका सशस्त्र दलहरूलाई मिश्र देशबाट बाहिर निकालेर ल्याउनुभएको थियो ।
