Mose 2 12
1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose kple Aron le Egipte be,
And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
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 is the first to you among 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 to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, On the tenth of this month let them take each man a lamb according to the houses of their families, every man a lamb for his household.
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.
And if they be few in a household, so that there are not enough for the lamb, he shall take with himself his neighbor that lives near to him, —as to the number of souls, every one according to that which suffices him shall make a reckoning for the lamb.
5 Alẽ alo gbɔ̃ sia anye atsu si xɔ ƒe ɖeka, eye naneke megblẽ le eƒe akpa aɖeke ŋu o.
It shall be to you a lamb unblemished, a male of a year old: you shall take it of the lambs and the kids.
6 Miakpɔ wo dzi va se ɖe ɣleti sia ƒe ŋkeke wuienelia dzi, esi Israelviwo katã awu woƒe lãwo le fiẽ me,
And it shall be kept by you till the fourteenth of this month, and all the multitude of the congregation of the children of Israel shall kill it toward 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, and shall put it on the two door-posts, and on the lintel, in the houses in which soever they shall eat them.
8 Le zã ma ke me la, woame lã la aɖu kple amagbe veve kple abolo maʋamaʋã.
And they shall eat the flesh in this night roast with fire, and they shall eat unleavened [bread] with bitter herbs.
9 Migaɖui mumu alo aɖae hafi aɖu o, ke boŋ mimee dɔnogoe, ta kple afɔwo siaa.
You shall not eat of it raw nor sodden in water, but only roast with fire, the head with the feet and the appurtenances.
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.
Nothing shall be left of it till the morning, and a bone of it you shall not break; but that which is left of it till the morning you shall burn 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 shall you eat it: your loins girded, and your sandals on your feet, and your staves in your hands, and you shall eat it in haste. It is a passover to 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 go throughout the land of Egypt in that night, and will strike every firstborn in the land of Egypt both man and beast, and on all the gods of Egypt will I execute vengeance: 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 for a sign to you on the houses in which you are, and I will see the blood, and will protect you, and there shall not be on you the plague of destruction, when I strike in 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 to you a memorial, and you shall keep it a feast to the Lord through all your generations; you shall keep it a feast for a perpetual ordinance.
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 you shall eat unleavened bread, and from the first day you shall utterly remove leaven from your houses: whoever shall eat leaven, that soul shall be utterly destroyed from Israel, from the first day until the seventh day.
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.
And the first day shall be called holy, and the seventh day shall be a holy convocation to you: you shall do no servile work on them, only as many things as will [necessarily] be done by every soul, this only shall be done by you.
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 keep this commandment, for on this day will I bring out your force out of the land of Egypt; and you shall make this day a perpetual ordinance for you throughout your generations.
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.
Beginning the fourteenth day of the first month, you shall eat unleavened bread from evening, till the twenty-first day of the month, till 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 leaven shall not be found in your houses; whoever shall eat anything leavened, that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, both among the occupiers of the land and the original inhabitants.
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 eat nothing leavened, but in every habitation of your 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 elders of the children of Israel, and said to them, Go away and take to yourselves a lamb according to your kindred, and kill the passover.
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 you shall take a bunch of hyssop, and having dipped it into some of the blood that is by the door, you shall touch the lintel, and [shall put it] upon both door-posts, even of the blood which is by the door; but you shall not go out every one from the door of his house till the 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.
And the Lord shall pass by to strike the Egyptians, and shall see the blood upon the lintel, and upon both the door-posts; and the Lord shall pass by the door, and shall not suffer the destroyer to enter into your houses to strike [you].
24 Miɖo ŋku edzi be esia nye se si anɔ anyi tegbetegbe na miawo ŋutɔwo kple miaƒe dzidzimeviwo.
And keep you this thing as an ordinance for yourself and for your 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 if you should enter into the land, which the Lord shall give you, as he has spoken, keep this service.
26 eye mia viwo bia mi be, ‘Nu ka ta miele ŋkekenyui sia ɖum mahã?’ la,
And it shall come to pass, if your sons say to you, What is 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.
that you shall say to them, This passover is a sacrifice to the Lord, as he defended the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he struck the Egyptians, but delivered our houses.
28 Israel wɔ abe ale si Yehowa ɖo na Mose kple Aron ene.
And the people bowed and worshipped. And the children of Israel departed and did as the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they.
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 that the Lord struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharao that sat on the throne, to the firstborn of the captive-maid in the dungeon, and the firstborn of all 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 rose up by night, and his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in all the land of Egypt, for there was not a house in which there was 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 called Moses and Aaron by night, and said to them, Rise and depart from my people, both you and the children of Israel. Go and serve the Lord your God, even as you say.
32 Mikplɔ miaƒe alẽwo kple nyiwo, eye miadzo. Miyram eye miadzo.”
And take with you your sheep, and your oxen: bless me also, I pray you.
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 constrained the people, so that they cast them out of the land with haste, for they said, We all shall die.
34 Israelviwo tsɔ woƒe amɔ maʋamaʋã ɖe asi. Wobla woƒe amɔkpakuwo ɖe woƒe avɔ mamlɛawo me heda ɖe abɔta.
And the people took their dough before their meal was leavened, bound up [as it was] in their garments, 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 commanded them, and they asked of the Egyptians articles of silver and gold and apparel.
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 his people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, and they lent to them; and they spoiled 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 Israel departed from Ramesses to Socchoth, to [the full number of] six hundred thousand footmen, even men, besides the baggage.
38 Amedzro geɖewo hã dze mɔ kpli wo. Woho kple alẽha kple nyiha gã aɖewo.
And a great mixed [company] went up with them, and sheep and oxen and very much cattle.
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 dough which they brought out of Egypt, unleavened cakes, for it had not been leavened; for the Egyptians cast them out, and they could not remain, neither did they prepare provision for themselves for the journey.
40 Israelviwo nɔ Egipte ƒe alafa ene blaetɔ̃.
And the sojourning of the children of Israel, while they sojourned in the land of Egypt and the land of Chanaan, [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.
And it came to pass after the four hundred and thirty years, all the forces of the Lord came forth out of the land of Egypt by night.
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.
It is a watch kept to the Lord, so that he should bring them out of the land of Egypt; that very night is a watch kept to the Lord, so that it should be to all the children of Israel to 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 law of the passover: no stranger shall eat of it.
44 gake kluvi si mieƒle hetso aʋa na la ate ŋu aɖui.
And every slave or servant bought with money—him you shall circumcise, and then shall he eat of it.
45 Agbatedɔwɔla alo amedzro si le mia gbɔ la, mekpɔ mɔ aɖui o.
A sojourner or hireling shall not eat of it.
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, and you shall not carry of the flesh out from the house; and a bone of it you shall not break.
47 Israelviwo katã aɖu ŋkekenyui sia le ɣeyiɣi ɖeka dzi.
All the congregation 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 proselyte shall come to you to keep the passover to the Lord, you shall circumcise every male of him, and then shall he approach to sacrifice it, and he shall be even as the original inhabitant of the land; no uncircumcised person shall eat of it.
49 Se ɖeka ma kee akplɔ Israelvi dzɔleaƒeawo kple amedzro siwo le mia dome.”
There shall be one law to the native, and to the proselyte coming among you.
50 Israelviwo wɔ se siwo katã Yehowa de na wo to Mose kple Aron dzi la dzi.
And the children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron for them, so they did.
51 Gbe ma gbe kee Yehowa kplɔ Israelviwo do goe tso Egiptenyigba dzi, le woƒe to vovovoawo me.
And it came to pass in that day that the Lord brought out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt with their forces.
