Exodus 13
1 Yahweh said to Moses/me,
OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
2 “Set apart all the firstborn males in order that they may belong to me. The firstborn males of the Israeli people and of their animals will be mine.”
E hoolaa mai i na hiapo a pau na'u, o na mea a pau o na mamo a Iseraela i hanau mua o ka ke kanaka, a o ka ka holoholona, na'u no ia.
3 Moses/I said to the people, “Do not forget this day! This is the day that you are leaving Egypt. This is the day you [are freed from] being their slaves. Yahweh has brought you out of Egypt by his great power [MTY]. Do not eat any bread that has yeast in it [whenever you celebrate] this day.
I aku la o Mose i na kanaka, E hoomanao oukou i keia la a oukou i puka mai ai, mailoko mai o Aigupita, a mailoko ae o ka hale hooluhi; no ka mea, ua lawe mai nei o Iehova ia oukou mailoko mai o ia wahi, me ka lima ikaika: aole e aiia ka berena hu.
4 You are leaving Egypt on this day, which is the first day of the month that is [named] Abib.
I keia la oukou i hele mai ai, i ka malama o Abiba.
5 Later, when Yahweh brings you into the land where the descendants of Canaan, Heth, Amor, Hiv, and Jebus [now live], the land that he solemnly promised to give to you, a land that will be very good for raising livestock and growing crops [MTY], you must celebrate this festival during this month [every year].
A i ka wa a Iehova e lawe aku ai ia oe iloko i ka aina o ka Kanaana, a o ka Heta, a o ka Amora, a o ka Hiva a me ka Iebusa, i kahi ana i hoohiki ai i kou poe kupuna, e haawi mai oia nou, he aina e kahe ana o ka waiu a me ka meli; alaila, i keia malama, e hana oe i keia oihana.
6 For seven days the bread that you eat must not have any yeast in it. On the seventh day there must be a festival to [honor] Yahweh.
Ehiku mau la au e ai ai i ka berena hu ole, a i ka hiku o ka la, he ahaaina no Iehova.
7 For seven days do not eat bread that has yeast in it. You should not have any yeast or bread made with yeast anywhere in your land.
I na la ehiku e aiia ka berena hu ole; aole loa e ikea ka berena hu me oe, aole hoi e ikea ka mea hu me oe, i kou mau wahi a pau.
8 On the day [the festival starts], you must tell your children, ‘[We are doing this to remember] what Yahweh did for our ancestors when they left Egypt.
A e hoike aku oe i kau keikikane i kela la, i ka i ana aku, No ka mea keia a Iehova i hana mai ai ia'u, i ko'u puka ana mai iwaho o Aigupita.
9 This ritual will remind you how Yahweh brought your ancestors out of Egypt with his great power [MTY]. [The ritual will be like something] you tie on your forehead or on your wrist. It will remind you to recite to others what Yahweh has instructed you.
He hoailona no ia nou ma kou lima, he mea hoomanao no hoi mawaena o kou mau maka, i mau ke kanawai o Iehova ma kou waha; no ka mea, me ka lima ikaika ka Iehova i lawe mai ai ia oe mai Aigupita mai.
10 So you must celebrate this festival every year at the time [Yahweh] has appointed.’
No ia mea, e malama oe i keia oihana, i kona manawa, ia makahiki aku, ia makahiki aku.
11 Yahweh will bring you into the land where the descendants of Canaan live, just as he promised you and your ancestors that he would do. When he gives that land to you,
Eia hoi kekahi, a hiki i ka wa a Iehova e lawe aku ai ia oe i ka aina o ka Kanaana, e like me kana i hoohiki mai ai ia oe, a i kou poe kupuna, a e haawi mai ana hoi nou;
12 you must dedicate to Yahweh the firstborn males of all your animals. These all will belong to Yahweh.
Alaila e hoolaa ae oe no Iehova i na mea a pau i hanau mua, a o na hiapo a pau a na holoholona ou; no Iehova no na kane.
13 You may keep the firstborn male donkeys, but you must buy them back by sacrificing a lamb as a substitute for the donkey. If you do not want to buy back the donkey, you must [kill it by] breaking its neck. You must also buy back every one of your own firstborn sons.
A o na keiki mua a pau a ka hoki, e panai aku oe no ia i keikihipa; a i ole oe e panai, alaila e uhai i kona a-i. A o na keiki mua a pau a kanaka, iwaena o kau poe keiki, o lakou kau e panai aku.
14 In the future, when one of your children asks, ‘What does this mean?’, you must say to him, ‘Yahweh brought our ancestors out of Egypt with his great power [MTY], and freed us from being slaves there.
Eia hoi, a i ka wa e ninau mai ai kau keikikane mahope aku nei, e i mai ana, Heaha keia? alaila e hai aku oe ia ia, Me ka lima ikaika ka Iehova i lawe mai ai ia makou mailoko mai o Aigupita, a mailoko mai hoi o ka hale hooluhi;
15 The king of Egypt stubbornly refused to let them leave his country, so Yahweh killed all the firstborn males in Egypt, both the boys and the firstborn of their livestock. That is why we now sacrifice to Yahweh all the firstborn of our livestock, but we buy back our own firstborn sons.’
A i ka wa i aua ai o Parao i ke kuu mai ia makou, alaila pepehi iho la o Iehova i na hiapo a pau ma ka aina o Aigupita, o ka hiapo a ke kanaka a me ka hiapo a ka holoholona: nolaila ka'u e mohai aku nei i na kane a pau i hanau mua: aka, o na hiapo a pau a ka'u mau keiki, oia ka'u e hoolapanai aku.
16 I repeat that this ritual will remind you about how Yahweh brought our [ancestors] out of Egypt by his great power [MTY]; it will be like something you tie on your wrist or on your forehead [to remind you of that].”
A e lilo keia mea i hoailona ma kou lima, a he mea hoomanao hoi mawaena o kou mau maka; no ka mea, me ka lima ikaika i lawe mai ai o Iehova ia kakou mawaho mai o Aigupita.
17 When the king [of Egypt] let the [Israeli] people go, God did not lead them to go through the land of the Philistines. That was a shorter way, but God said, “It would be bad if my people change their minds when they realize that they will have to fight [the Philistines to take their land], and then [decide to] return to Egypt.”
A i ka wa i hookuu mai ai o Parao i na kanaka, aole i alakai mai ke Akua ia lakou ma ke ala o ka aina o ka poe Pilisetia, oia no nae ke ala kokoke; no ka mea, i iho la ke Akua, E makau paha na kanaka, ke ike lakou i ke kaua, a hoi hou lakou i Aigupita.
18 Instead, God led them to go around through the desert toward the Red Sea (OR, the Gulf of Suez). When the Israeli people left Egypt, they were carrying weapons to fight [their enemies].
Aka, alakai puni ae la ke Akua i na kanaka ma ke ala o ka. waonahele o ke Kaiula: hele makaukau mai la na mamo a Iseraela, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai.
19 Moses/I [had them] take along the bones of Joseph with them/us, because Joseph long ago had made the Israeli people promise solemnly that they would do that. He had said to them, “God will enable your descendants to leave Egypt. When that happens, you must carry my bones with you.”
Lawe pu mai la o Mose me ia i na iwi o Iosepa; no ka mea, ua kauoha ikaika mai oia i na mamo a Iseraela, i ka i ana mai, He oiaio no, e hele mai ke Akua e ike ia oukou; a e lawe aku hoi oukou i ko'u mau iwi me oukou.
20 The Israeli people left Succoth and traveled to Etham, at the edge of the desert, and they set up their tents there.
Hele aku la lakou mai Sukota aku, a hoomoana ma Etama, ma ke kihi o ka waonahele.
21 [When they traveled] during the daytime, Yahweh went in front of them in a tall [white] cloud to show them the way. During the night, he went in front of them in a tall cloud that looked like a fire. By doing that, he enabled them to travel in the daytime and also at nighttime.
Hele aku la o Iehova mamua o lakou maloko o ke kia ao i ke ao, e alakai ia lakou ma ke ala; a maloko o ke kia ahi i ka po, e hoomalamalama mai ia lakou; i hele lakou i ke ao a me ka po.
22 The tall cloud did not leave them. It was always in front of them, as a bright white cloud in the daytime and like a fire at night.
Aole ia i lawe aku i ke kia ao i ke ao, aole hoi i ke kia ahi i ka po, mai ke alo o na kanaka aku.
