Exodus 12
1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron, in the land of Egypt, saying,
Bere a na Mose ne Aaron da so wɔ Misraim asase so no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se,
2 'This month [is] to you the chief of months — it [is] the first to you of the months of the year;
“Efi nnɛ rekɔ, ɔsram yi bɛyɛ ɔsram a edi kan wɔ Yudafo asranna so.
3 speak ye unto all the company of Israel, saying, In the tenth of this month — they take to them each man a lamb for the house of the fathers, a lamb for a house.
Ka kyerɛ Israelfo nyinaa se, saa ɔsram yi da a ɛto so du no, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔbarima biara pɛ oguamma baako de ma nʼabusua. Ɛsɛ sɛ ofi biara nya oguamma no baako.
4 '(And if the household be too few for a lamb, then hath he taken, he and his neighbour who is near unto his house, for the number of persons, each according to his eating ye do count for the lamb, )
Sɛ abusua bi mu nnipa sua a wɔrentumi nwe oguamma no a, wotumi ne abusua bi a ɛbɛn wɔn wɔ mpɔtam hɔ a wɔn nso sua kyɛ oguamma no. Aboa no kyɛ wɔ saa kwan no so no gyina abusua no kɛse ne nam dodow a wobetumi awe so.
5 a lamb, a perfect one, a male, a son of a year, let be to you; from the sheep or from the goats ye do take [it].
Ɛsɛ sɛ aboa no yɛ nea wadi afe. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔyɛ oguan anaa abirekyi a onnii dɛm.
6 'And it hath become a charge to you, until the fourteenth day of this month, and the whole assembly of the company of Israel have slaughtered it between the evenings;
Monhwɛ saa mmoa a moayiyi wɔn yi yiye nkosi ɔsram a edii kan no da a ɛto so dunan no anwummere. Afei Israel asafo nyinaa nkunkum wɔn nguantenmma no ɔdasu mu.
7 and they have taken of the blood, and have put on the two side-posts, and on the lintel over the houses in which they eat it.
Wɔmfa wɔn mogya nsra ofi biara apongua ho. Oguamma a wɔbɛwe no wɔ fie hɔ no mogya na wɔmfa nyɛ saa ahyɛde yi.
8 'And they have eaten the flesh in this night, roast with fire; with unleavened things and bitters they do eat it;
Anadwo no ara, obiara bɛwe aboa a wɔatoto no no nam no bi. Wɔmfa brodo a wɔamfa mmɔkaw anyɛ ne awɔnwen na enni.
9 ye do not eat of it raw, or boiled at all in water, but roast with fire, its head with its legs, and with its inwards;
Wɔnnnoa nam no na wɔnnwe no amono nso, na mmom, wɔntoto aboa mu no nyinaa, a ne ti, nʼanan ne nʼayamde nyinaa ka ho.
10 and ye do not leave of it till morning, and that which is remaining of it till morning with fire ye do burn.
Sɛ moantumi anwe ne nyinaa anadwo no a, nea ɛbɛka no, sɛ ade kye so a, monnnwe na mmom monhyew no.
11 'And thus ye do eat it: your loins girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand, and ye have eaten it in haste; it is Jehovah's passover,
Sɛnea monwe nam no ni: monwe wɔ bere a mo ntade a mode tu kwan hyehyɛ mo. Munsiesie mo ho mma ɔkwan tententwa. Monhyɛ mo mpaboa na momfa mo pema nkurakura. Monwe no ntɛmntɛm. Saa nneyɛe yi, wɔbɛfrɛ no Awurade Twam Afahyɛ.
12 and I have passed over through the land of Egypt during this night, and have smitten every first-born in the land of Egypt, from man even unto beast, and on all the gods of Egypt I do judgments; I [am] Jehovah.
“Na metwa mu afa Misraim asase so anadwo yi na mmabarima a wɔyɛ mmakan ne mmoa mmakan a wɔwɔ Misraim asase so nyinaa, mekum wɔn, na mabu anyame a wɔwɔ Misraim nyinaa atɛn, efisɛ mene Awurade!
13 'And the blood hath become a sign for you on the houses where ye [are], and I have seen the blood, and have passed over you, and a plague is not on you for destruction in My smiting in the land of Egypt.
Mogya a mode bɛyɛ apongua no ho no bɛyɛ agyiraehyɛde, enti sɛ mihu mogya no a, metwa mu akɔ, na sɛ merekunkum Misraim mmakan a, merenkum mo de bi.
14 'And this day hath become to you a memorial, and ye have kept it a feast to Jehovah to your generations; — a statute age-during; ye keep it a feast.
“Eyi yɛ da a ɛsɛ sɛ mudi; na awo ntoatoaso a ɛbɛba no bedi no sɛ afahyɛ ama Awurade. Eyi yɛ mmara a ɛbɛtena hɔ daa.
15 Seven days ye eat unleavened things; only — in the first day ye cause leaven to cease out of your houses; for any one eating anything fermented from the first day till the seventh day, even that person hath been cut off from Israel.
Nnanson no mu, munni brodo a wɔmfaa mmɔkaw mfrae nko ara. Afahyɛ no da a edi kan no, munyiyi mmɔkaw biara mfi mo afi mu. Obiara a saa bere no obebu saa afahyɛ yi mmara yi so no, wobetwa no asu afi Israelman mu.
16 'And in the first day [is] a holy convocation, and in the seventh day ye have a holy convocation; any work is not done in them, only that which is eaten by any person — it alone is done by you,
Afahyɛ no da a edi kan ne ne nnanson so no, nnipa no nyinaa bedi da no sɛ da a wɔayi asi hɔ ama nhyiamu kronkron. Na nna no mu, aduannoa akyi no, obiara nnyɛ adwuma foforo biara.
17 and ye have observed the unleavened things, for in this self-same day I have brought out your hosts from the land of Egypt, and ye have observed this day to your generations — a statute age-during.
“Sɛ mudi Apiti Afahyɛ yi a, ɛbɛma mo akae daa sɛ, saa da no na miyii mo fii Misraim asase so. Munni saa dapɔnna yi sɛ daa ahyɛde mfi awo ntoatoaso so nkosi awo ntoatoaso so.
18 'In the first [month], in the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, ye do eat unleavened things until the one and twentieth day of the month, at evening;
Ɔsram a edi kan no da a ɛto so dunan no anwummere kosi ne da a ɛto so aduonu baako so no, brodo a mmɔkaw mfra mu nko ara na munni.
19 seven days leaven is not found in your houses, for any [one] eating anything fermented — that person hath been cut off from the company of Israel, among the sojourners or among the natives of the land;
Saa nnanson no mu no, ɛnsɛ sɛ wohu mmɔkaw kakraa bi koraa wɔ mo afi mu. Enti obiara a obedi aduan a mmɔkaw wɔ mu no, wobeyi no afi Israel asafo kuw no mu. Saa mmara yi ka ananafo a wɔne mo te ne wɔn a wofi ɔman no mu no nyinaa nso.
20 anything fermented ye do not eat, in all your dwellings ye do eat unleavened things.'
Miti mu sɛ, saa nna no mu, munnni biribiara a wɔde mmɔkaw afra mu; munni brodo a mmɔkaw mfra mu.”
21 And Moses calleth for all the elders of Israel, and saith unto them, 'Draw out and take for yourselves [from] the flock, for your families, and slaughter the passover-sacrifice;
Na Mose frɛɛ Israel mpanyimfo nyinaa ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Monkɔkyekyere oguamma anaa abirekyi ba mma abusua biara, na munkum no sɛ Twam Afahyɛ aboa.
22 and ye have taken a bunch of hyssop, and have dipped [it] in the blood which [is] in the basin, and have struck [it] on the lintel, and on the two side-posts, from the blood which [is] in the basin, and ye, ye go not out each from the opening of his house till morning.
Muntwa oguan no mogya ngu kuruwa bi mu. Momfa adwerɛ mmɔ mogya no mu na momfa mpete apongua no atifi ne apongua abien a aka no ho sɛnea mogya no bɛda ho. Muwie a, mo mu biara mmfi nkɔ abɔnten saa anadwo no.
23 'And Jehovah hath passed on to smite the Egyptians, and hath seen the blood on the lintel, and on the two side-posts, and Jehovah hath passed over the opening, and doth not permit the destruction to come into your houses to smite.
Awurade betwa mu afa asase yi so akunkum Misraimfo. Na sɛ ohu sɛ mogya wɔ apongua no atifi ne apongua abien no ho a, obetwa saa ofi no ho akɔ a ɔremma ɔsɛefo no nwura hɔ nkunkum mo mmakan.
24 'And ye have observed this thing, for a statute to thee, and to thy sons — unto the age;
“Na monkae sɛ eyi yɛ mmara a ɛwɔ hɔ daa ma mo ne mo asefo.
25 and it hath been, when ye come in unto the land which Jehovah giveth to you, as He hath spoken, that ye have kept this service;
Na sɛ moba asase a Awurade de bɛma mo sɛnea ɔhyɛɛ mo ho bɔ no so a, mobɛkɔ so adi afahyɛ no.
26 and it hath come to pass when your sons say unto you, What [is] this service ye have?
Na sɛ mo mma bisa mo se, ‘Eyinom nyinaa ase ne dɛn; saa afahyɛ yi fa dɛn ho a,
27 that ye have said, A sacrifice of passover it [is] to Jehovah, who passed over the houses of the sons of Israel in Egypt, in His smiting the Egyptians, and our houses He delivered.'
mummua wɔn se, ɛyɛ Twam Afahyɛ afɔre ma Awurade. Otwaa Israelfo afi ho wɔ Misraim. Ɛwɔ mu sɛ okunkum Misraimfo de, nanso ogyaw yɛn mmusua.’” Bere a Mose kasa wiee no, nnipa no nyinaa kotow sɔree.
28 And the people bow and do obeisance, and the sons of Israel go and do as Jehovah commanded Moses and Aaron; so have they done.
Na Israelfo no dii Mose ne Aaron ahyɛde no so.
29 And it cometh to pass, at midnight, that Jehovah hath smitten every first-born in the land of Egypt, from the first-born of Pharaoh who is sitting on his throne, unto the first-born of the captive who [is] in the prison-house, and every first-born of beasts.
Da no ara anadwo nnɔndumien Awurade kunkum mmarimaa a wɔyɛ abakan a wɔwɔ Misraim asase so nyinaa, efi Farao babarima panyin so kosi odeduani babarima panyin ne anantwi nso mmakan nyinaa.
30 And Pharaoh riseth by night, he and all his servants, and all the Egyptians, and there is a great cry in Egypt, for there is not a house where there is not [one] dead,
Afei, Farao ne ne mpanyimfo ne nnipa a wɔwɔ Misraim nyinaa sɔree anadwo no. Misraiman no nyinaa twaa agyaadwo, efisɛ ofi biara nni hɔ a onipa anwu wɔ mu.
31 and he calleth for Moses and for Aaron by night, and saith, 'Rise, go out from the midst of my people, both ye and the sons of Israel, and go, serve Jehovah according to your word;
Enti Farao frɛɛ Mose ne Aaron anadwo no ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Mesrɛ mo, mo nyinaa muntu mfi ha. Monkɔsom Awurade sɛnea mokae no.
32 both your flock and your herd take ye, as ye have spoken, and go; then ye have blessed also me.'
Momfa mo nguan ne mo anantwi na monkɔ. Nanso munhyira me ansa na moakɔ.”
33 And the Egyptians are urgent on the people, hasting to send them away out of the land, for they said, 'We are all dead;'
Misraimfo no nyinaa ani beree Israelfo no so pampam wɔn sɛ womfi asase no so ntɛm, efisɛ wɔkae se, “Yebewuwu.”
34 and the people taketh up its dough before it is fermented, their kneading-troughs [are] bound up in their garments on their shoulder.
Israelfo no faa wɔn mmɔre a wɔafɔtɔw a mmɔkaw mfra mu, na wɔde wɔn ntade kyekyeree wɔn mmɔre nnaka de sisii wɔn mmati so.
35 And the sons of Israel have done according to the word of Moses, and they ask from the Egyptians vessels of silver and vessels of gold, and garments;
Na Israelfo no asrɛsrɛ dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ adwinne ne ntade afi Misraimfo no nkyɛn sɛnea Mose kaa se wɔnyɛ no.
36 and Jehovah hath given the grace of the people in the eyes of the Egyptians, and they cause them to ask, and they spoil the Egyptians.
Awurade maa Misraimfo no huu Israelfo no mmɔbɔ enti wɔmaa wɔn wɔn abisade nyinaa. Ɛnam saayɛ so maa Israelfo no twee Misraimfo ahonyade nyinaa kɔe.
37 And the sons of Israel journey from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, apart from infants;
Anadwo no ara, Israelfo no sii mu fii Rameses kɔɔ Sukot. Na wɔn dodow yɛ nnipa mpem ahansia a wɔnam fam, a mmea ne mmofra de wɔankan wɔn anka ho.
38 and a great rabble also hath gone up with them, and flock and herd — very much cattle.
Nnipa ahorow pii bi a wɔnyɛ Israelfo kaa wɔn ho kɔe. Wɔde wɔn nguan ne wɔn anantwi nyinaa kaa wɔn ho.
39 And they bake with the dough which they have brought out from Egypt unleavened cakes, for it hath not fermented; for they have been cast out of Egypt, and have not been able to delay, and also provision they have not made for themselves.
Woduu baabi a wɔpɛ sɛ wodidi no, wɔde mmɔre a wɔamfa mmɔkaw amfra a wɔde kɔe no bi too brodo dii. Na mmɔkaw nni mu, efisɛ Misraimfo no pam wɔn. Ɛno nti wɔannya kwan anyɛ aduan a wobedi wɔ ɔkwan so.
40 And the dwelling of the sons of Israel which they have dwelt in Egypt [is] four hundred and thirty years;
Israelfo no tenaa Misraim mfe ahannan ne aduasa.
41 and it cometh to pass, at the end of four hundred and thirty years — yea, it cometh to pass in this self-same day — all the hosts of Jehovah have gone out from the land of Egypt.
Na da a wodii mfe ahannan ne aduasa no pɛ na Awurade nkurɔfo nyinaa fii asase no so.
42 A night of watchings it [is] to Jehovah, to bring them out from the land of Egypt; it [is] this night to Jehovah of watchings to all the sons of Israel to their generations.
Saa anadwo no ne bere a Awurade yi too hɔ de gyee ne nkurɔfo fii Misraim asase so. Enti saa anadwo koro no ara na Israelfo no yi de too hɔ sɛ da a Onyankopɔn gyee wɔn no afirihyia da.
43 And Jehovah saith unto Moses and Aaron, 'This [is] a statute of the passover; Any son of a stranger doth not eat of it;
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Mose ne Aaron se, “Twam Afahyɛ no ho mmara ni: “Ahɔho biara nnwe oguamma no nam no bi.
44 and any man's servant, the purchase of money, when thou hast circumcised him — then he doth eat of it;
Nanso ɔsomfo biara a wɔtew sika tɔɔ no no, sɛ wɔatwa no twetia de a, otumi we bi.
45 a settler or hired servant doth not eat of it;
Ɔpaani anaa ɔhɔho biara nnwe bi.
46 in one house it is eaten, thou dost not carry out of the house [any] of the flesh without, and a bone ye do not break of it;
“Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔwe Twam Afahyɛ aboa biara wɔ ofi biara mu. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔwe nam no wɔ fie. Ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔde nam no fa biara kɔ abɔnten. Ɛnsɛ sɛ mobɔ dompe biara mu.
47 all the company of Israel do keep it.
Ɛsɛ sɛ Israelfo nyinaa di da no.
48 'And when a sojourner sojourneth with thee, and hath made a passover to Jehovah, every male of his [is] to be circumcised, and then he doth come near to keep it, and he hath been as a native of the land, but any uncircumcised one doth not eat of it;
“Ahɔho a mo ne wɔn te no nso, sɛ wɔpɛ sɛ wodi Twam Afahyɛ no bi a, ɛsɛ sɛ mmarima a wɔwɔ wɔn mu no nyinaa twa twetia ansa na wɔaba ne mo abedi; na ama wɔayɛ sɛnea wɔwoo wɔn too mo mu no.
49 one law is to a native, and to a sojourner who is sojourning in your midst.'
Saa mmara yi ka Israelfo ne ahɔho a wɔne mo te no nso.”
50 And all the sons of Israel do as Jehovah commanded Moses and Aaron; so have they done.
Enti Israelfo no nyinaa dii Awurade mmara no so sɛnea ɔhyɛɛ Mose ne Aaron no.
51 And it cometh to pass in this self-same day, Jehovah hath brought out the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, by their hosts.
Da no ara na Awurade yii Israelfo no fii Misraim asase so.
