< Mose 2 12 >

1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose kple Aron le Egipte be,
And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt:
2 “Tso azɔ dzi yina la, ɣleti siae anye gbãtɔ kple ɣleti vevitɔ wu na mi le ƒea me.
This month shall be to you the beginning of months: it shall be the first in the months of the year.
3 Miɖe gbeƒã na Israelviwo katã be le ɣleti sia ƒe ŋkeke ewolia dzi la, ŋutsu ɖe sia ɖe nalé alẽvi ɖeka na eƒe ƒome, alẽ ɖeka ɖe aƒekɔ ɖeka ɖe sia ɖe nu.
Speak ye to the whole assembly of the children of Israel, and say to them: On the tenth day of this month let every man take a lamb by their families and houses.
4 Ne aƒekɔ aɖe le sue akpa na alẽvi blibo ɖeka ɖuɖu la, woama alẽvi la kple woƒe aƒelika si te ɖe wo ŋu wu le woƒe agbɔsɔsɔ nu. Ele be miabu alẽvi siwo ŋu dɔ woawɔ la ŋu le ameawo ƒe agbɔsɔsɔ nu, ɖe nu si ame sia ame aɖu la nu.
But if the number be less than may suffice to eat the lamb, he shall take unto him his neighbour that joineth to his house, according to the number of souls which may be enough to eat the lamb.
5 Alẽ alo gbɔ̃ sia anye atsu si xɔ ƒe ɖeka, eye naneke megblẽ le eƒe akpa aɖeke ŋu o.
And it shall be a lamb without blemish, a male, of one year: according to which rite also you shall take a kid.
6 Miakpɔ wo dzi va se ɖe ɣleti sia ƒe ŋkeke wuienelia dzi, esi Israelviwo katã awu woƒe lãwo le fiẽ me,
And you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month: and the whole multitude of the children of Israel shall sacrifice it in the evening.
7 woatsɔ woƒe ʋu asi na woƒe ʋɔtrua ƒe axadziti eveawo kple ʋɔtrua ƒe tameti le aƒe ɖe sia ɖe si me woaɖu alẽviawo le.
And they shall take of the blood thereof, and put it upon both the side posts, and on the upper door posts of the houses, wherein they shall eat it.
8 Le zã ma ke me la, woame lã la aɖu kple amagbe veve kple abolo maʋamaʋã.
And they shall eat the flesh that night roasted at the fire, and unleavened bread with wild lettuce.
9 Migaɖui mumu alo aɖae hafi aɖu o, ke boŋ mimee dɔnogoe, ta kple afɔwo siaa.
You shall not eat thereof any thing raw, nor boiled in water, but only roasted at the fire: you shall eat the head with the feet and entrails thereof.
10 Migagblẽ lã la ƒe ɖeke ɖi ŋu nake ɖe edzi o. Ne miete ŋu ɖu wo katã gbe ma gbe ƒe fiẽ o la, ele be miatɔ dzo esi susɔ.
Neither shall there remain any thing of it until morning. If there be any thing left, you shall burn it with fire.
11 Ale si mianɔ hafi aɖui nye esi: mido miaƒe awuwo, miabla wo dzi kple alidziblaka. Mido miaƒe atokotawo ɖe afɔ, eye mialé miaƒe atizɔtiwo ɖe asi. Miɖui abe sisilawo ene, elabena Yehowa ƒe Ŋutitotoŋkeke wònye.
And thus you shall eat it: you shall gird your reins, and you shall have shoes on your feet, holding staves in your hands, and you shall eat in haste: for it is the Phase (that is the Passage) of the Lord.
12 “Elabena mato Egiptenyigba la dzi le zã sia me, eye mawu ŋgɔgbevi ɖe sia ɖe, amewo kple lãwo tɔwo siaa. Madrɔ̃ ʋɔnu Egipte mawuwo katã, elabena nyee nye Yehowa.
And I will pass through the land of Egypt that night, and will kill every firstborn in the land of Egypt both man and beast: and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am the Lord.
13 Ʋu si miesi ɖe ʋɔtrutiwo ŋu la anye dzesi be mieɖoa tom. Ne mekpɔ ʋua la, mato mia ŋuti. Nyemawu viŋutsu gbãtɔwo ne meyina Egiptetɔwo tɔwo wu ge o.
And the blood shall be unto you for a sign in the houses where you shall be: and I shall see the blood, and shall pass over you: and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I shall strike the land of Egypt.
14 “Ele be miaɖu ŋkekenyui sia na Yehowa ƒe sia ƒe be wòaɖo ŋku zã si me Egiptetɔwo ƒe ŋutsuvi gbãtɔwo ku la dzi. Esia zu se si me woalé ɖe asi tegbetegbe.
And this day shall be for a memorial to you: and you shall keep it a feast to the Lord in your generations with an everlasting observance.
15 Miaɖu ŋkekenyui sia ŋkeke adre. Le ŋkeke adreawo katã me la, ele be miaɖu abolo si wowɔ kple amɔ maʋamaʋã ko. Woaɖe ame sia ame si agbe se sia dzi wɔwɔ le ŋkeke adreawo dometɔ ɖeka pɛ gɔ̃ hã me la le Israelviwo ƒe hame.
Seven days shall you eat unleavened bread: in the first day there shall be no leaven in your houses: whosoever shall eat any thing leavened, from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall perish out of Israel.
16 Le ŋkekenyui sia ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ kple mamlɛtɔ dzi la, ameha la katã ade takpekpe kɔkɔe aɖe. Womawɔ dɔ aɖeke le ŋkeke siawo dzi o, negbe nuɖaɖa ko.
The first day shall be holy and solemn, and the seventh day shall be kept with the like solemnity: you shall do no work in them, except those things that belong to eating.
17 “‘Abolo Maʋamaʋã Ŋkekenyui’ sia ɖuɖu ƒe sia ƒe ana miaɖo ŋku ŋkeke sia dzi abe gbe si gbe meɖe mi tso Egiptenyigba dzi ene, eya ta ezu se mavɔ be miaɖu ŋkekenyui sia ƒe sia ƒe, tso dzidzime yi dzidzime.
And you shall observe the feast of the unleavened bread: for in this same day I will bring forth your army out of the land of Egypt, and you shall keep this day in your generations by a perpetual observance.
18 Abolo si wowɔ kple amɔ maʋamaʋã la ko woaɖu tso ɣleti la ƒe ŋkeke wuienelia ƒe fiẽ va se ɖe ŋkeke blaeve-vɔ-ɖekɛlia ƒe fiẽ.
The first month, the fourteenth day of the month in the evening, you shall eat unleavened bread, until the one and twentieth day of the same month in the evening.
19 Mele be amɔʋãtike aɖeke nanɔ miaƒe aƒewo me le ŋkeke adre siawo me o. Woaɖe ame sia ame si aɖu nu si wowɔ kple amɔ ʋaʋã le ɣeyiɣi sia me la le Israelviwo ƒe hame. Ele be amedzro siwo le mia dome kple dzɔleaƒeawo siaa nalé se sia me ɖe asi.
Seven days there shall not be found any leaven in your houses: he that shall eat leavened bread, his soul shall perish out of the assembly of Israel, whether he be a stranger or born in the land.
20 Megale egblɔm be, le ŋkeke adre mawo me la, mele be miaɖu nu si wowɔ kple amɔ ʋaʋã la ƒe ɖeke o: miɖu nu si wowɔ kple amɔ maʋamaʋã la ko le afi sia afi si mianɔ.”
You shall not eat any thing leavened: in all your habitations you shall eat unleavened bread.
21 Ale Mose yɔ Israelviwo ƒe ametsitsiwo ƒo ƒu, eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Miyi mialé alẽwo tso miaƒe alẽhawo dome. Aƒekɔ ɖeka nalé alẽ ɖeka; aƒekɔ sue eve nalé alẽ ɖeka. Esia aku ɖe ame siwo le aƒeawo me ƒe agbɔsɔsɔ ŋu. Miwu Ŋutitotolẽvi la.
And Moses called all the ancients of the children of Israel, and said to them: Go take a lamb by your families, and sacrifice the Phase.
22 Mitsyɔ alẽvi la ƒe ʋu ɖe gagbɛ aɖe me. Minyrɔ kakle ɖe ʋu la me, eye miatsɔe asisi ʋu la ɖe ʋɔtruti la tame kple eƒe axawo dzi, ale be ʋu nanɔ ʋɔtrutiawo ŋu. Mia dometɔ aɖeke mado go le xɔ me le zã ma me o.
And dip a bunch of hyssop in the blood that is at the door, and sprinkle the transom of the door therewith, and both the door cheeks: let none of you go out of the door of his house till morning.
23 “Elabena Yehowa ato anyigba la dzi, eye wòawu Egiptetɔwo. Ke ne ekpɔ ʋu le ʋɔtruti la tametɔ kple eƒe axadzitɔwo ŋu la, ato ʋɔtru la ŋu, eye maɖe mɔ na nugblẽla wòage ɖe eme awu miaƒe ŋutsuvi gbãtɔwo o.
For the Lord will pass through striking the Egyptians: and when he shall see the blood on the transom, and on both the posts, he will pass over the door of the house, and not suffer the destroyer to come into your houses and to hurt you.
24 Miɖo ŋku edzi be esia nye se si anɔ anyi tegbetegbe na miawo ŋutɔwo kple miaƒe dzidzimeviwo.
Thou shalt keep this thing as a law for thee and thy children for ever.
25 Ne mieva ɖo anyigba si Yehowa ana mi dzi abe ale si wòdo ŋugbee na mi ene, ne miele Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖum,
And when you have entered into the land which the Lord will give you as he hath promised, you shall observe these ceremonies.
26 eye mia viwo bia mi be, ‘Nu ka ta miele ŋkekenyui sia ɖum mahã?’ la,
And when your children shall say to you: What is the meaning of this service?
27 miaɖo eŋu be, ‘Enye Yehowa ƒe mía ŋuti toto ƒe vɔsa, elabena eto Israelviwo ƒe aƒewo ŋuti, eye wòwu Egiptetɔwo.’” Ameawo katã de ta agu, eye wosubɔ Mawu.
You shall say to them: It is the victim of the passage of the Lord, when he passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, striking the Egyptians, and saving our houses. And the people bowing themselves, adored.
28 Israel wɔ abe ale si Yehowa ɖo na Mose kple Aron ene.
And the children of Israel going forth did as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron.
29 Le zã ma me, le zãtitina tututu la, Yehowa wu ŋutsuvi gbãtɔwo le Egiptenyigba la dzi, tso Farao ƒe viŋutsuvi gbãtɔ si le eƒe zi dzi la dzi va se ɖe gaxɔmenɔla ƒe viŋutsuvi gbãtɔ dzi. Ewu lãwo ƒe vi siwo nye atsu la ƒe gbãtɔwo hã.
And it came to pass at midnight, the Lord slew every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharao, who sat on his throne, unto the firstborn of the captive woman that was in the prison, and all the firstborn of cattle.
30 Farao kple eƒe aɖaŋudelawo kple Egiptetɔwo katã fɔ le zã ma me. Avifafa nɔ Egiptenyigba blibo la dzi, elabena aƒe aɖeke menɔ anyi esi me ame meku le o.
And Pharao arose in the night, and all his servants, and all Egypt: for there was not a house wherein there lay not one dead.
31 Farao yɔ Mose kple Aron le zã ma me, eye wògblɔ be, “Netsɔ, midzo le mía gbɔ, míeɖe kuku, mi katã midzo! Mia ŋutɔwo kple Israelviwo; miyi miasubɔ Yehowa abe ale si miebia ene.
And Pharao calling Moses and Aaron, in the night, said: Arise and go forth from among my people, you and the children of Israel: go, sacrifice to the Lord as you say.
32 Mikplɔ miaƒe alẽwo kple nyiwo, eye miadzo. Miyram eye miadzo.”
Your sheep and herds take along with you, as you demanded, and departing, bless me.
33 Egiptetɔwo ƒo du ɖe Israelviwo nu be woadzo le anyigba la dzi kaba, abe ale si woate ŋui ene, elabena wogblɔ be, “Ne menye nenema o la, mí katã míele kuku ge.”
And the Egyptians pressed the people to go forth out of the land speedily, saying: We shall all die.
34 Israelviwo tsɔ woƒe amɔ maʋamaʋã ɖe asi. Wobla woƒe amɔkpakuwo ɖe woƒe avɔ mamlɛawo me heda ɖe abɔta.
The people therefore took dough before it was leavened: and tying it in their cloaks, put it on their shoulders.
35 Israelviwo wɔ abe ale si Mose gblɔ na wo ene. Woɣe klosalonuwo kple sikanuwo kple awuwo le Egiptetɔwo si.
And the children of Israel did as Moses had commanded: and they asked of the Egyptians vessels of silver and gold, and very much raiment.
36 Yehowa na Egiptetɔwo nyo dɔ me na Israelviwo ale gbegbe be wotsɔ nu sia nu si Israelviwo bia wo la na wo. Ale Egiptetɔwo ƒe nu sia nu kloe yi Israelviwo gbɔ!
And the Lord gave favour to the people in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them: and they stripped the Egyptians.
37 Israelviwo dzo le Rameses le zã ma me heɖo ta Sukɔt. Ŋutsu akpe alafa ade kple nyɔnuwo kple ɖeviwo dze mɔ kple afɔ.
And the children of Israel set forward from Ramesse to Socoth, being about six hundred thousand men on foot, beside children.
38 Amedzro geɖewo hã dze mɔ kpli wo. Woho kple alẽha kple nyiha gã aɖewo.
And a mixed multitude without number went up also with them, sheep and herds and beasts of divers kinds, exceeding many.
39 Ne wotɔ hena nuɖuɖu la, wowɔa abolo kple amɔ maʋamaʋã si wotsɔ ɖe asi la ŋu dɔ. Amɔ la meʋã o, elabena ɖe wonya wo le Egipte, eye womekpɔ ɣeyiɣi aɖeke ana woƒe amɔ naʋã woatsɔ ɖe asi na mɔzɔzɔ la o.
And they baked the meal, which a little before they had brought out of Egypt, in dough: and they made earth cakes unleavened: for it could not be leavened, the Egyptians pressing them to depart, and not suffering them to make any stay: neither did they think of preparing any meat.
40 Israelviwo nɔ Egipte ƒe alafa ene blaetɔ̃.
And the abode of the children of Israel that they made in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years.
41 Le ƒe alafa ene blaetɔ̃ lia ƒe nuwuwu, le ŋkeke ma dzi tututu la, Yehowa ƒe amewo katã ʋu le Egipte.
Which being expired, the same day all the army of the Lord went forth out of the land of Egypt.
42 Yehowa tia zã sia be yeaɖe yeƒe amewo tso Egiptenyigba dzi, eya ta wòna zã sia zu gbe si gbe Israelviwo katã aɖu ale si Yehowa ɖe woe la ƒe ŋkekenyui ƒe sia ƒe.
This is the observable night of the Lord, when he brought them forth out of the land of Egypt: this night all the children of Israel must observe in their generations.
43 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose kple Aron be, “Esiawoe nye se siwo le Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖuɖu ŋuti. “Amedzro aɖeke maɖu alẽvi la ƒe lã o,
And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron: This is the service of the Phase: No foreigner shall eat of it.
44 gake kluvi si mieƒle hetso aʋa na la ate ŋu aɖui.
But every bought servant shall be circumcised, and so shall eat.
45 Agbatedɔwɔla alo amedzro si le mia gbɔ la, mekpɔ mɔ aɖui o.
The stranger and the hireling shall not eat thereof.
46 Mi ame siwo katã aɖu alẽvi ɖeka la, miaɖui le aƒe ɖeka me: miatsɔ ɖeke ado goe o, eye miagbã ƒu aɖeke hã o.
In one house shall it be eaten, neither shall you carry forth of the flesh thereof out of the house, neither shall you break a bone thereof.
47 Israelviwo katã aɖu ŋkekenyui sia le ɣeyiɣi ɖeka dzi.
All the assembly of the children of Israel shall keep it.
48 “Ne amedzro siwo le mia gbɔ di be yewoaɖu Yehowa ƒe Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la kpli mi la, mina woƒe ŋutsuwo katã natso aʋa, ekema woate ŋu aɖui kpli mi. Ekema woazu abe ɖe wodzi wo ɖe mia dome ene. Ke bolotɔ aɖeke mekpɔ mɔ aɖu ŋutitotolẽvi la o.
And if any stranger be willing to dwell among you, and to keep the Phase of the Lord, all his males shall first be circumcised, and then shall he celebrate it according to the manner: and he shall be as he that is born in the land: but if any man be uncircumcised, he shall not eat thereof.
49 Se ɖeka ma kee akplɔ Israelvi dzɔleaƒeawo kple amedzro siwo le mia dome.”
The same law shall be to him that is born in the land, and to the proselyte that sojourneth with you.
50 Israelviwo wɔ se siwo katã Yehowa de na wo to Mose kple Aron dzi la dzi.
And all the children of Israel did as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron.
51 Gbe ma gbe kee Yehowa kplɔ Israelviwo do goe tso Egiptenyigba dzi, le woƒe to vovovoawo me.
And the same day the Lord brought forth the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their companies.
