Egzòd 13

1 Seyè a di Moyiz konsa:

And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

2 -Se pou nou mete tout premye pitit gason ak tout premye mal bèt yo apa pou mwen. Tout premye pitit gason moun pèp Izrayèl yo, tout premye mal bèt yo fè, se pou mwen yo ye.

Sanctifie vnto me all the first borne: that is, euery one that first openeth the wombe among the children of Israel, as well of man as of beast: for it is mine.

3 Moyiz di pèp la: -Pa janm bliye jou sa a, jou nou te soti kite peyi Lejip kote yo te fè nou tounen esklav la, paske se Seyè a menm ki te fè nou soti ak fòs ponyèt li. Jou sa a, se pa pou nou manje pen ki gen ledven ladan l'.

Then Moses sayd vnto the people, Remember this day in the which ye came out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage: for by a mightie hande the Lord brought you out from thence: therefore no leauened bread shall bee eaten.

4 Se jòdi a, se jou sa a, nan mwa Abib la, n'ap soti kite peyi Lejip.

This day come yee out in the moneth of Abib.

5 Seyè a va fè nou antre nan peyi ki pou moun Kanaran yo, pou moun Et yo, pou moun Amori yo, pou moun Evi yo ak moun Jebis yo. Se yon peyi ki rich anpil, kote lèt ak siwo myèl koule tankou dlo. Se peyi sa a Seyè a te pwomèt l'ap bay zansèt nou yo. Lè l'a fè nou antre nan peyi sa a, n'a toujou fè sèvis sa a nan menm mwa a.

Now when the Lord hath brought thee into the land of the Canaanites, and Hittites, and Amorites, and Hiuites, and Iebusites (which he sware vnto thy fathers, that he woulde giue thee, a land flowing with milke and honie) then thou shalt keepe this seruice in this moneth.

6 Pandan sèt jou, n'a manje pen ki fèt san ledven. Sou setyèm jou a, n'a fè yon fèt pou Seyè a.

Seuen dayes shalt thou eate vnleauened bread, and the seuenth day shall be the feast of the Lord.

7 Pandan sèt jou, n'a manje pen ki fèt san ledven. Yo pa dwe jwenn ni pen ki fèt ak ledven, ni ledven menm lakay nou, nan tout peyi a.

Vnleauened bread shall bee eaten seuen dayes, and there shall no leauened bread be seene with thee, nor yet leauen be seene with thee in all thy quarters.

8 Jou sa a, men sa n'a di pitit gason nou yo: Nou fè tou sa pou Seyè a, lè nou chonje tou sa li te fè pou nou lè nou soti kite Lejip la.

And thou shalt shew thy sonne in that day, saying, This is done, because of that which the Lord did vnto me, when I came out of Egypt.

9 Sèvis sa a ap tankou yon mak nan men nou osinon yon bagay nou mete nan tèt nou pou nou pa bliye, pou nou ka toujou fè konnen lòd Seyè a. Paske, se avèk fòs ponyèt li li fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip la.

And it shalbe a signe vnto thee vpon thine hande, and for a remembrance betweene thine eyes, that the Lawe of the Lord may be in thy mouth: for by a strong hand the Lord brought thee out of Egypt.

10 Toujou fè sèvis sa a chak lanne, nan dat mwen te fikse a.

Keepe therefore this ordinance in his season appoynted from yeere to yeere.

11 Lè Seyè a va fè nou antre nan peyi moun Kanaran yo, dapre pwomès li te fè nou an, nou menm ansanm ak zansèt nou yo, lè Seyè a va ban nou peyi sa a,

And when the Lord shall bring thee into the lande of the Canaanites, as hee sware vnto thee and to thy fathers, and shall giue it thee,

12 n'a pran tout premye pitit gason nou yo, n'a mete yo apa pou Seyè a. Konsa tou, tout premye pitit bèt nou yo, depi se mal yo ye, se pou mwen yo ye.

Then thou shalt set apart vnto the Lord all that first openeth the wombe: also euery thing that first doeth open the wombe, and commeth forth of thy beast: the males shalbe the Lordes.

13 Nan plas tout premye pitit bourik nou yo, se pou nou ban mwen yon ti mouton. Si nou pa fè sa, se pou nou kase kou l'. Men, n'a ofri m' bagay pou achte lavi tout premye pitit gason nou yo nan men mwen.

But euery first foale of an asse, thou shalt redeeme with a lambe: and if thou redeeme him not, then thou shalt breake his necke: likewise all the first borne of man among thy sonnes shalt thou bye out.

14 Denmen, lè pitit gason nou yo va mande nou poukisa nou fè sa, n'a di yo: Se paske se ak fòs ponyèt li Seyè a te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip kote yo te fè nou tounen esklav la.

And when thy sonne shall aske thee to morowe, saying, What is this? thou shalt then say vnto him, With a mightie hande the Lord brought vs out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

15 Seyè a te touye depi premye pitit gason moun peyi Lejip yo rive jouk premye mal bèt yo fè, paske farawon an t'ap fè tèt di, li pa t' vle kite nou ale. Se poutèt sa nou ofri bay Seyè a tout premye mal bèt nou yo fe, epi nou ofri lòt bagay pou achte lavi tout premye pitit gason nou yo nan men l'.

For when Pharaoh was harde hearted against our departing, the Lord then slewe all the first borne in the lande of Egypt: from the first borne of man euen to the first borne of beast: therefore I sacrifice vnto the Lord all the males that first open the wombe, but all the first borne of my sonnes I redeeme.

16 Sèvis sa a va tounen tankou yon mak sou men nou, tankou bando nou mare sou fwon nou, pou fè nou chonje se ak fòs ponyèt li Seyè a te fè nou soti kite peyi Lejip.

And it shalbe as a token vpon thine hand, and as frontlets betweene thine eyes, that the Lord brought vs out of Egypt by a mightie hande.

17 Lè farawon an kite pèp Izrayèl la pati, Bondye pa mennen yo nan wout ki pase bò lanmè a pou ale nan peyi moun Filisti yo, atout se wout sa a ki te pi kout, paske Bondye te di: Mwen pa vle pou pèp la gen remò pou yo kase tèt tounen nan peyi Lejip la ankò, lè y'a wè batay yo gen pou yo fè.

Nowe when Pharaoh had let the people go, God caried them not by the way of the Philistims countrey, though it were neerer: (for God sayd, Lest the people repent whe they see warre, and turne againe to Egypt)

18 Se konsa, Bondye fè pèp la pran chemen dezè a nan direksyon lanmè Wouj la. Pèp Izrayèl la te soti kite peyi Lejip la tankou yon lame.

But God made the people to go about by the way of the wildernesse of the red sea: and the children of Israel went vp armed out of the land of Egypt.

19 Moyiz pran zosman Jozèf yo avèk li, paske Jozèf te fè moun pèp Izrayèl yo fè sèman. Li te di yo: Bondye gen pou vin ede nou. Lè sa a, se pou nou pati ak zosman mwen soti isit la.

(And Moses tooke the bones of Ioseph with him: for he had made the children of Israel sweare, saying, God will surely visite you, and ye shall take my bones away hence with you)

20 Yo kite Soukòt, yo rive yon kote ki rele Etam, sou lizyè dezè a, yo pase kèk tan la.

So they tooke their iourney from Succoth, and camped in Etham in the edge of the wildernesse.

21 Lajounen, Seyè a t'ap mache devan yo nan yon gwo nwaj ki te gen fòm yon poto pou moutre yo chemen pou yo pran. Lannwit, li t'ap mache devan yo nan yon dife ki te tankou yon flanm ki t'ap klere yo. Konsa, yo te ka vwayaje lajounen kou lannwit.

And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of a cloude to leade them the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to giue them light, that they might go both by day and by night.

22 Lajounen, nwaj la te toujou ap mache devan pèp la. Lannwit, se te dife a.

He tooke not away the pillar of ye cloude by day, nor the pillar of fire by night from before the people.
