< Exodus 12 >

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt. He said,
A i korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi raua ko Arona i te whenua o Ihipa, i mea,
2 “For you, this month will be the start of months, the first month of the year to you.
Ko tenei marama hei marama timatanga ki a koutou: hei timatanga tenei mo nga marama o to koutou tau.
3 Tell the assembly of Israel, 'On the tenth day of this month they must each take a lamb or young goat for themselves, each family doing this, a lamb for each household.
Korero ki te huihuinga katoa o Iharaira, mea atu, Hei te tekau o nga ra o tenei marama, me tango he reme ma ratou e tenei, e tenei, kia rite ki nga whare o nga matua, he whare, he reme:
4 If the household is too small for a lamb, the man and his next door neighbor are to take lamb or young goat meat that will be enough for the number of the people. It should be enough for everyone to eat, so they must take enough meat to feed them all.
A, ki te tokoouou te whare mo te reme, ma raua ko tona hoa noho tata ki tona whare e tango, kia rite ki te tokomaha o nga tangata; whakaritea te tokomaha o nga tangata mo te reme ki te kai a tenei, a tenei.
5 Your lamb or young goat must be without blemish, a one-year-old male. You may take one of the sheep or goats.
Kei whai koha ta koutou reme, hei te toa, hei te tautahi; tangohia mai i nga hipi, i nga koati ranei:
6 You must keep it until the fourteenth day of that month. Then the whole assembly of Israel must kill these animals at twilight.
A me tiaki e koutou taea noatia te tekau ma wha o nga ra o tenei marama: a ma te huihui katoa o to Iharaira whakaminenga e patu i te ahiahi.
7 You must take some of the blood and put it on the two side doorposts and on the tops of the doorframes of the houses in which you will eat the meat.
A me tango e ratou tetahi wahi o nga toto, ka ta atu ai ki nga pou e rua, ki te korupe hoki o te tatau o nga whare e kainga ai tena mea e ratou.
8 You must eat the meat that night, after first roasting it over a fire. Eat it with bread made without yeast, along with bitter herbs.
A me kai te kikokiko i taua po ano, he mea tunu ki te ahi, he taro rewenakore hoki; he puwha kawa hoki ta ratou e kinaki ai ki taua mea.
9 Do not eat it raw or boiled in water. Instead, roast it over fire with its head, legs and inner parts.
Kaua tetahi wahi e kainga matatia, he mea kohua ranei ki te wai, engari kia tunua ki te ahi; ko tona pane, ko ona waewae, me ona whekau.
10 You must not let any of it be left over until morning. You must burn whatever is left over in the morning.
Kaua hoki e whakatoea tetahi wahi ona ki te ata; a, ko te wahi ona e toe ki te ata, tahuna ki te ahi.
11 This is how you must eat it: with your belt fastened, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand. You must eat it hurriedly. It is Yahweh's Passover.
A me penei ta koutou kai i taua mea; kia whitikiria o koutou hope, hei o koutou waewae o koutou hu, ko a koutou tokotoko hoki ki o koutou ringaringa; kia hohoro hoki te kai: ko te kapenga hoki a Ihowa tena.
12 Yahweh says this: I will go through the land of Egypt in that night and attack all the firstborn of man and animal in the land of Egypt. I will bring punishment on all the gods of Egypt. I am Yahweh.
Ta te mea ka tika ahau ra waenganui o te whenua o Ihipa i taua po, ka patu hoki i nga matamua katoa i te whenua o Ihipa, i te tangata a tae iho ana ki te kararehe; a ka puta aku whakawa ki nga atua katoa o Ihipa: ko Ihowa ahau.
13 The blood will be a sign on your houses for my coming to you. When I see the blood, I will pass over you when I attack the land of Egypt. This plague will not come on you and destroy you.
A hei tohu mo koutou te toto i nga whare e noho ai koutou; a, ka kite ahau i te toto, ka kape ahau i a koutou, e kore ano hoki te whiu e pa ki a koutou hei whakamate, ina patu ahau i te whenua o Ihipa.
14 This day will become a memorial day for you, which you must observe as a festival for Yahweh. It will always be a law for you, throughout your people's generations, that you must observe this day.
A, hei whakamaharatanga mo koutou tenei ra; hei konei koutou tuku ai i te hakari ki a Ihowa, tuku iho ki o koutou whakatupuranga; ko te ture tenei ake nei, ake nei, kia hakaritia e koutou tenei ra.
15 You will eat bread without yeast during seven days. On the first day you will remove the yeast from your houses. Whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that person must be cut off from Israel.
E whitu nga ra e kai ai koutou i te taro rewenakore; hei te ra tuatahi ano ka whakakorea ai te rewena o o koutou whare; ta te mea ki te kai tetahi i te taro rewena i te ra tuatahi, a taea noatia te whitu o nga ra, ka hatepea atu taua wairua i ro to i a Iharaira.
16 On the first day there will be an assembly that is set apart to me, and on the seventh day there will be another such gathering. No work will be done on these days, except the cooking for everyone to eat. That must be the only work that may be done by you.
Hei te ra tuatahi hoki he huihuinga tapu, hei te ra tuawhitu hoki he huihuinga tapu mo koutou; kaua tetahi mahi e mahia i aua ra; heoi ano ko te kai ma tenei, ma tenei, ta koutou e raweke ai.
17 You must observe this Festival of Unleavened Bread because it is on this day that I will have brought your people, armed group by armed group, out of the land of Egypt. So you must observe this day throughout your people's generations. This will always be a law for you.
Kia mau hoki ki te hakari o te taro rewenakore; no te mea, no tenei rangi pu ano i whakaputaina ai e ahau o koutou ropu i te whenua o Ihipa: mo konei, kia mau ki tenei ra, i o koutou whakatupuranga; hei tikanga tenei ake ake.
18 You must eat unleavened bread from twilight of the fourteenth day in the first month of the year, until twilight of the twenty-first day of the month.
Hei te marama tuatahi, hei te kotahi tekau ma wha o nga ra, i te ahiahi, ka kai koutou i te taro rewenakore, a tae noa ki te rua tekau ma tahi o nga ra o te marama, i te ahiahi.
19 During these seven days, no yeast must be found in your houses. Whoever eats bread made with yeast must be cut off from the community of Israel, whether that person is a foreigner or someone born in your land.
Kaua he rewena e kitea ki o koutou whare i nga ra e whitu; ta te mea ki te kai tetahi i te mea kua rewenatia, ina, ka hatepea atu taua wairua i roto i te huihui o Iharaira, ahakoa tangata ke, ahakoa tangata whenua ranei.
20 You must eat nothing made with yeast. Wherever you live, you must eat bread made without yeast.'”
Kaua e kainga tetahi mea kua rewenatia; hei te taro rewenakore he kai ma koutou i o koutou nohoanga katoa.
21 Then Moses summoned all the elders of Israel and said to them, “Go and select lambs or kids that will be enough to feed your families and kill the Passover lamb.
Na ka karanga a Mohi ki nga kaumatua katoa o Iharaira, ka mea ki a ratou, Tikina, tangohia mai ma koutou he reme, kia rite ki o koutou whanau, patua hoki te kapenga.
22 Then take a bunch of hyssop and dip it in the blood that will be in a basin. Apply the blood in the basin to the top of the doorframe and the two doorposts. None of you is to go out of the door of his house until the morning.
A tangohia he paihere hihopa, ka tuku ki te toto i te peihana, na ka tata atu i te korupe me nga pou e rua ki te toto i te peihana; kaua hoki tetahi o koutou e puta ki waho o te kuwaha o tona whare, a taea noatia te ata.
23 For Yahweh will pass through to attack the Egyptians. When he sees the blood on the top of the doorframe and on the two doorposts, he will pass over your door and not permit the destroyer to come into your houses to attack you.
He mea hoki, ka haere atu a Ihowa ki te patu i nga Ihipiana; a, ka kite ia i te toto i te korupe, i nga pou e rua hoki, ka kapea e Ihowa te kuwaha, e kore hoki e tukua e ia te kaiwhakamate kia haere ki roto ki o koutou whare patu ai.
24 You must observe this event. This will always be a law for you and your descendants.
Kia mau hoki ki tenei mea, hei ture mou, mo au tamariki, ake ake.
25 When you enter the land that Yahweh will give you, just as he has promised to do, you must observe this act of worship.
A, tenei ake, a te wa e tae ai koutou ki te whenua e homai e Ihowa ki a koutou, ki tana i korero ai, na kia mau ki tenei mahi.
26 When your children ask you, 'What does this act of worship mean?'
A, tenei ake, ki te mea a koutou tamariki ki a koutou, He aha tenei e mahia nei e koutou?
27 then you must say, 'It is the sacrifice of Yahweh's Passover, because Yahweh passed over the Israelites' houses in Egypt when he attacked the Egyptians. He set our households free.'” Then the people bowed down and worshiped Yahweh.
Na ka mea atu, Ko te patunga ra i ta Ihowa kapenga, nana ra i kape nga whare o nga tama a Iharaira i Ihipa, i a ia i patu ai i nga Ihipiana, a whakaorangia ake o matou whare. Na tuohu ana te iwi, koropiko ana.
28 The Israelites went and did exactly as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron.
Na ka haere nga tama a Iharaira, a mea ana i ta Ihowa i whakahau ai ki a Mohi raua ko Arona, pera ana ratou.
29 It happened at midnight that Yahweh attacked all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sat on his throne, to the firstborn of the person in prison and all the firstborn of cattle.
Nawai a, ka waenganui po, na, patu ana e Ihowa nga matamua katoa i te whenua o Ihipa, te matamua a Parao e noho ana i runga i tona torona, a tae iho ana ki te matamua a te herehere i roto i te whare herehere; me nga matamua katoa a te kararehe.
30 Pharaoh got up in the night—he, all his servants, and all the Egyptians. There was loud lamenting in Egypt, for there was not a house where there was not someone dead.
Na ka maranga ake a Parao i te po, ratou ko ana tangata katoa, ko nga Ihipiana katoa; na, he nui te tangi i Ihipa; kahore hoki he whare i kore te tupapaku.
31 Pharaoh summoned Moses and Aaron in the night and said, “Get up, get out from among my people, you and the Israelites. Go, worship Yahweh, as you have said you wanted to do.
Na ka karanga ia ki a Mohi raua ko Arona i te po, a ka mea, Whakatika, haere atu i roto i toku iwi, koutou ko nga tama a Iharaira; haere ki te mahi ki a Ihowa, ki te pera me ta koutou i ki ai.
32 Take your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and go, and also bless me.”
Tangohia hoki a koutou hipi, a koutou kau hoki, a koutou i ki ai, a haere atu; me manaaki ano hoki i ahau.
33 The Egyptians were in a great hurry to send them out of the land, for they said, “We will all die.”
A akiaki ana nga Ihipiana ki te iwi, kia tonoa wawetia atu ai ratou i te whenua; i mea hoki ratou, Ka mate katoa tatou.
34 So the people took their dough without adding any yeast. Their kneading bowls were already tied up in their clothes and on their shoulders.
A maua atu ana e te iwi ta ratou paraoa pokepoke, i te mea kahore ano i rewenatia noatia, he mea takai a ratou pokepokenga paraoa ki o ratou kakahu, na kei o ratou pokohiwi.
35 Now the people of Israel did as Moses told them. They asked the Egyptians for articles of silver, articles of gold, and clothing.
Na ka pera nga tama a Iharaira me ta Mohi i ki ai; na, kei te tono mea hiriwa, mea koura, kakahu, i nga Ihipiana:
36 Yahweh made the Egyptians eager to please the Israelites. So the Egyptians gave them whatever they asked for. In this way, the Israelites plundered the Egyptians.
A na Ihowa i mea kia paingia te iwi e nga Ihipiana, a homai ana e ratou: a pahuatia ana e ratou nga Ihipiana.
37 The Israelites journeyed from Rameses to Succoth. They numbered about 600,000 men on foot, in addition to the women and children.
Na ka turia mai e nga tama a Iharaira i Ramehehe ki Hukota, tata tonu nga tane ki nga mano e ono rau, he mea haere i raro, haunga nga tamariki.
38 A mixed multitude also went with them, together with flocks and herds, a very large number of livestock.
He nui te whakauru i haere i a ratou; me te hipi, me te kau, he tini ke te kararehe.
39 They baked bread without yeast in the dough that they brought from Egypt. It was without yeast because they had been driven out of Egypt and could not delay to prepare food.
A tunua iho e ratou etahi taro rewenakore i te paraoa pokepoke i maua atu e ratou i Ihipa, kahore hoki i rewenatia; no te mea hoki i peia ratou i Ihipa, kihai hoki i ahei te noho iho, kihai hoki ratou i taka i te o mo ratou.
40 The Israelites had lived in Egypt for 430 years.
Na, ko te nohoanga o nga tama a Iharaira, i noho ra ki Ihipa, e wha rau e toru tekau nga tau.
41 At the end of 430 years, on that very day, all of Yahweh's armed groups went out from the land of Egypt.
A i te mutunga o nga tau e wha rau e toru tekau, i taua ra pu ano, na, ka puta nga mano katoa o Ihowa i te whenua o Ihipa.
42 This was a night to stay awake, for Yahweh to bring them out from the land of Egypt. This was Yahweh's night to be observed by all the Israelites throughout their people's generations.
Ka maharatia taua po nei, hei mea ki a Ihowa, mo to ratou whakaputanga i te whenua o Ihipa: ko taua po tenei o Ihowa hei maharatanga ma nga tama katoa a Iharaira, i o ratou whakatupuranga.
43 Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron, “Here is the rule for the Passover: No foreigner may share in eating it.
I mea ano a Ihowa ki a Mohi raua ko Arona, Ko te tikanga tenei mo te kapenga: Kaua tetahi tangata ke e kai i tena mea;
44 However, every Israelite's slave, bought with money, may eat it after you have circumcised him.
Engari nga pononga katoa a te tangata i utua ki te moni, kia oti te kokoti e koe, ka kai ai i tena mea.
45 Foreigners and hired servants must not eat any of the food.
Kaua te manene, te kaimahi ranei, e kai i tena mea.
46 The food must be eaten in one house. You must not carry any of the meat out of the house, and you must not break any bone of it.
Kia kotahi te whare e kainga ai; kaua e mauria tetahi wahi o te kikokiko ki waho i te whare; kaua hoki e whatiia tetahi wheua ona.
47 All the community of Israel must observe the festival.
Ma te huihuinga katoa o Iharaira tena mahi.
48 If a foreigner lives with you and wants to observe the Passover to Yahweh, all his male relatives must be circumcised. Then he may come and observe it. He will become like the people who were born in the land. However, no uncircumcised person may eat any of the food.
Na, he tangata ke e noho ana i a koe, a ka mahi i te kapenga a Ihowa, kotia ana tane katoa, katahi ka whakatata ai ia ki tena mahi; a ka rite ki te tangata whenua: kei kainga e te kokotikore.
49 This same law will apply to both the native born and to the foreigner who lives among you.”
Kia kotahi ano te ture mo te tangata whenua raua ko te tangata ke e noho ana i roto i a koutou.
50 So all the Israelites did exactly as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron.
Na ka pera nga tama katoa a Iharaira me ta Ihowa i ako ai ki a Mohi raua ko Arona; pera ana ratou.
51 It came about that very day that Yahweh brought Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armed groups.
Na, no taua ra pu ano i whakaputaina mai ai e Ihowa nga tama a Iharaira i te whenua o Ihipa, tenei ropu, tenei ropu o ratou.
