< Mose 2 12 >

1 Yehowa gblɔ na Mose kple Aron le Egipte be,
And the Lord spoke unto 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 unto you the chief of months: the first shall it be unto you of 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 unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, On the tenth day of this month they shall take to themselves every man a lamb for every family, a lamb for every house:
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 the household be too small for a lamb, then shall he take it with his neighbor who is next unto his house, according to the number of the souls; every man according to what he eateth shall ye make a count for the lamb.
5 Alẽ alo gbɔ̃ sia anye atsu si xɔ ƒe ɖeka, eye naneke megblẽ le eƒe akpa aɖeke ŋu o.
A lamb without blemish, a male of the first year shall ye have; from the sheep, or from the goats may ye take it.
6 Miakpɔ wo dzi va se ɖe ɣleti sia ƒe ŋkeke wuienelia dzi, esi Israelviwo katã awu woƒe lãwo le fiẽ me,
And ye shall have it in keeping until the fourteenth day of the same month; and then the whole assembly of the congregation 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 put it on the two side-posts and on the upper door-post, in 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 in that night, roasted by the fire, with unleavened bread; together with bitter herbs shall they eat it.
9 Migaɖui mumu alo aɖae hafi aɖu o, ke boŋ mimee dɔnogoe, ta kple afɔwo siaa.
You shall not eat of it raw, nor in any wise sodden with water; but roasted by the fire; its head with its legs, and with its entrails.
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.
And ye shall not let any thing of it remain until morning; and that which remaineth of it until morning ye 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 ye eat it, With your loins girded, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste, it is passover unto 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 in this night, and I will smite every first-born in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt will I 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 to you for a token upon the houses where ye are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you; and there shall be no plague against you to destroy, when I smite [others] 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 unto you for a memorial; and ye shall celebrate it as a feast unto the Lord; throughout your generations, as an ordinance for ever shall ye celebrate it.
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 ye eat unleavened bread; but on the first day ye shall have put away leaven out of your houses; for whosoever eateth leavened bread, that soul shall be cut off 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 on the first day there shall be a holy convocation, and on the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation to you; no manner of work shall be done on them, save what is eaten by every man, that only may be prepared 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 ye shall observe the unleavened bread; for on this selfsame day have I brought forth your armies out of the land of Egypt; therefore shall ye observe this day in your generations as an ordinance for ever.
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.
In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, shall ye eat unleavened bread, until the one and twentieth day of the month at 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 no leaven shall be found in your houses; for whosoever eateth that which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a stranger, or one 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.”
Nothing that is leavened shall ye eat; in all your habitations shall ye 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 for the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and take for yourselves lambs according to your families, and kill the passover sacrifice.
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 ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip in the blood that is in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two side-posts with the blood that is in the basin; and none of you shall go out frown the door of his house until 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 will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side-posts, the Lord will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite.
24 Miɖo ŋku edzi be esia nye se si anɔ anyi tegbetegbe na miawo ŋutɔwo kple miaƒe dzidzimeviwo.
And ye shall observe this thing, as an ordinance for thee and for thy sons 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 it shall come to pass, when ye be come into the land which the Lord will give you, according as he hath promised, that ye shall 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, when your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by 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 ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of the passover unto the Lord, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and our houses he spared; and the people bent the head and bowed themselves.
28 Israel wɔ abe ale si Yehowa ɖo na Mose kple Aron ene.
And the children of Israel went away, and did as the Lord had 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 smote every first-born in the land of Egypt, from the first-born of Pharaoh that was to sit on his throne unto the first-born of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the first-born 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 Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house where there was not some 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 he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, Rise up, get you forth from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve the Eternal, as ye have spoken.
32 Mikplɔ miaƒe alẽwo kple nyiwo, eye miadzo. Miyram eye miadzo.”
Also your flocks and your herds take, as ye have spoken, and be gone; and bless me also.
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 were urgent upon the people, to make haste to send them away out of the land; for they said, We are all dying.
34 Israelviwo tsɔ woƒe amɔ maʋamaʋã ɖe asi. Wobla woƒe amɔkpakuwo ɖe woƒe avɔ mamlɛawo me heda ɖe abɔta.
And the people took up their dough before it was yet leavened, their kneading-troughs being bound up in their clothes upon 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 had done according to the word of Moses; and they had asked of the Egyptians vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments.
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 had given the people favor in the eyes of the Egyptians, so that they gave unto them what they required; and they emptied out Egypt.
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 journeyed from Ra'meses to Succoth, 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 also went up with them; and flocks, and herds, a very large amount of 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 of the dough, which they had brought forth out of Egypt, unleavened cakes, for it was not leavened; because they were thrust out of Egypt, and could not tarry, neither had they prepared any provisions for themselves.
40 Israelviwo nɔ Egipte ƒe alafa ene blaetɔ̃.
Now the time of the residence of the children of Israel, which they dwelt 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.
And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, and it happened even on the selfsame day, that all the armies of the Lord went out from 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.
A night to be observed was this unto the Lord to bring them out from the land of Egypt: this is that night holy to the Lord, to be observed by all the children of Israel 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 unto Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover: No stranger shall eat thereof.
44 gake kluvi si mieƒle hetso aʋa na la ate ŋu aɖui.
But every man's servant that is bought for money, when thou hast circumcised him, then shall he eat thereof.
45 Agbatedɔwɔla alo amedzro si le mia gbɔ la, mekpɔ mɔ aɖui o.
A resident foreigner and a hired servant 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; thou shalt not carry forth aught of the flesh abroad out of the house; and no bone shall ye break in it.
47 Israelviwo katã aɖu ŋkekenyui sia le ɣeyiɣi ɖeka dzi.
All the congregation of Israel shall prepare 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 when a stranger sojourneth with thee, and will prepare the passover to the Lord, let his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and prepare it, and he shall be as one that is born in the land; but no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.
49 Se ɖeka ma kee akplɔ Israelvi dzɔleaƒeawo kple amedzro siwo le mia dome.”
One law shall be to him that is home-born, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among 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 so; as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they.
51 Gbe ma gbe kee Yehowa kplɔ Israelviwo do goe tso Egiptenyigba dzi, le woƒe to vovovoawo me.
And it came to pass on the selfsame day, that the Lord did bring forth the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies.
