< Pukaana 13 >

1 OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
The Lord told Moses,
2 E hoolaa mai i na hiapo a pau na'u, o na mea a pau o na mamo a Iseraela i hanau mua o ka ke kanaka, a o ka ka holoholona, na'u no ia.
“Every firstborn male is to be dedicated to me. The firstborn from every Israelite family belongs to me, and also every firstborn animal.”
3 I aku la o Mose i na kanaka, E hoomanao oukou i keia la a oukou i puka mai ai, mailoko mai o Aigupita, a mailoko ae o ka hale hooluhi; no ka mea, ua lawe mai nei o Iehova ia oukou mailoko mai o ia wahi, me ka lima ikaika: aole e aiia ka berena hu.
So Moses told the people, “Remember this is the day you left Egypt, the land of your slavery, for the Lord led you out of it by his amazing power. (Nothing with yeast in it shall be eaten.)
4 I keia la oukou i hele mai ai, i ka malama o Abiba.
Today you are on your way, this day in the month of Abib.
5 A i ka wa a Iehova e lawe aku ai ia oe iloko i ka aina o ka Kanaana, a o ka Heta, a o ka Amora, a o ka Hiva a me ka Iebusa, i kahi ana i hoohiki ai i kou poe kupuna, e haawi mai oia nou, he aina e kahe ana o ka waiu a me ka meli; alaila, i keia malama, e hana oe i keia oihana.
The Lord is going to take you into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Hivites, and Jebusites, the land he promised your forefathers he would give you, a land flowing with milk and honey. So you are to observe this ceremony in this month.
6 Ehiku mau la au e ai ai i ka berena hu ole, a i ka hiku o ka la, he ahaaina no Iehova.
For seven days you are to only eat bread without yeast, and on the seventh day hold a religious festival to honor the Lord.
7 I na la ehiku e aiia ka berena hu ole; aole loa e ikea ka berena hu me oe, aole hoi e ikea ka mea hu me oe, i kou mau wahi a pau.
Only bread without yeast is to be eaten during those seven days. You are not to have any yeast, in fact there is to be no yeast in any place where you live.
8 A e hoike aku oe i kau keikikane i kela la, i ka i ana aku, No ka mea keia a Iehova i hana mai ai ia'u, i ko'u puka ana mai iwaho o Aigupita.
On that day tell your children, ‘This is because of what the Lord did for me when I left Egypt.’
9 He hoailona no ia nou ma kou lima, he mea hoomanao no hoi mawaena o kou mau maka, i mau ke kanawai o Iehova ma kou waha; no ka mea, me ka lima ikaika ka Iehova i lawe mai ai ia oe mai Aigupita mai.
When you celebrate this ceremony it will be like a sign on your hand and a reminder between your eyes that this teaching of the Lord should be spoken about regularly. For the Lord led you out of Egypt with his great power.
10 No ia mea, e malama oe i keia oihana, i kona manawa, ia makahiki aku, ia makahiki aku.
That's why you are to observe this ceremony at the proper time every year.
11 Eia hoi kekahi, a hiki i ka wa a Iehova e lawe aku ai ia oe i ka aina o ka Kanaana, e like me kana i hoohiki mai ai ia oe, a i kou poe kupuna, a e haawi mai ana hoi nou;
Once the Lord takes you into the land of the Canaanites and gives it to you, as he promised you and your forefathers,
12 Alaila e hoolaa ae oe no Iehova i na mea a pau i hanau mua, a o na hiapo a pau a na holoholona ou; no Iehova no na kane.
you are to present to the Lord all firstborn males, human or animal. The firstborn males of your livestock all belong to the Lord.
13 A o na keiki mua a pau a ka hoki, e panai aku oe no ia i keikihipa; a i ole oe e panai, alaila e uhai i kona a-i. A o na keiki mua a pau a kanaka, iwaena o kau poe keiki, o lakou kau e panai aku.
You must buy back every firstborn donkey with a lamb, and if you don't do so, you have to break its neck. You must buy back every firstborn of your sons.
14 Eia hoi, a i ka wa e ninau mai ai kau keikikane mahope aku nei, e i mai ana, Heaha keia? alaila e hai aku oe ia ia, Me ka lima ikaika ka Iehova i lawe mai ai ia makou mailoko mai o Aigupita, a mailoko mai hoi o ka hale hooluhi;
When in the future your children come to you and ask, ‘Why is this ceremony important to you?’ you are to tell them, ‘The Lord led us out of Egypt, the land of our slavery, by his amazing power.
15 A i ka wa i aua ai o Parao i ke kuu mai ia makou, alaila pepehi iho la o Iehova i na hiapo a pau ma ka aina o Aigupita, o ka hiapo a ke kanaka a me ka hiapo a ka holoholona: nolaila ka'u e mohai aku nei i na kane a pau i hanau mua: aka, o na hiapo a pau a ka'u mau keiki, oia ka'u e hoolapanai aku.
Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us leave, so the Lord killed every firstborn in the land of Egypt, both human and animal. That's the reason why I sacrifice to the Lord the firstborn male of every animal, and I buy back all the firstborn of my sons.’
16 A e lilo keia mea i hoailona ma kou lima, a he mea hoomanao hoi mawaena o kou mau maka; no ka mea, me ka lima ikaika i lawe mai ai o Iehova ia kakou mawaho mai o Aigupita.
In this way it will be like a sign on your hand and a reminder between your eyes, for the Lord led us out of Egypt by his amazing power.”
17 A i ka wa i hookuu mai ai o Parao i na kanaka, aole i alakai mai ke Akua ia lakou ma ke ala o ka aina o ka poe Pilisetia, oia no nae ke ala kokoke; no ka mea, i iho la ke Akua, E makau paha na kanaka, ke ike lakou i ke kaua, a hoi hou lakou i Aigupita.
When Pharaoh let the Israelites leave, God did not lead them along the road through the land of the Philistines, even though that was a shorter way. For God said, “If they are forced to fight, they might change their minds and go back to Egypt.”
18 Aka, alakai puni ae la ke Akua i na kanaka ma ke ala o ka. waonahele o ke Kaiula: hele makaukau mai la na mamo a Iseraela, mai ka aina o Aigupita mai.
So God led the people by the longer way through the desert towards the Red Sea. When the Israelites left the land of Egypt they were like an army ready for battle.
19 Lawe pu mai la o Mose me ia i na iwi o Iosepa; no ka mea, ua kauoha ikaika mai oia i na mamo a Iseraela, i ka i ana mai, He oiaio no, e hele mai ke Akua e ike ia oukou; a e lawe aku hoi oukou i ko'u mau iwi me oukou.
Moses carried Joseph's bones with him because Joseph had made the sons of Israel swear a solemn promise, saying, “God will definitely take care of you, and then you must take my bones with you when you leave here.”
20 Hele aku la lakou mai Sukota aku, a hoomoana ma Etama, ma ke kihi o ka waonahele.
They traveled on from Succoth and camped at Etham on the edge of the desert.
21 Hele aku la o Iehova mamua o lakou maloko o ke kia ao i ke ao, e alakai ia lakou ma ke ala; a maloko o ke kia ahi i ka po, e hoomalamalama mai ia lakou; i hele lakou i ke ao a me ka po.
The Lord went ahead of them as a pillar of cloud to show them the way during the day, and as a pillar of fire to provide them with light at night. Like this they could travel by day or night.
22 Aole ia i lawe aku i ke kia ao i ke ao, aole hoi i ke kia ahi i ka po, mai ke alo o na kanaka aku.
The pillar of cloud during the day and the pillar of fire at night were always in front of the people.
