< Ọpụpụ 12 >

1 Onyenwe anyị gwara Mosis na Erọn okwu nʼala Ijipt sị ha,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
2 “Ọnwa a ga-abụrụ unu isi ọnwa. Ọ ga-abụ ọnwa mbụ nke ọnwa niile nʼafọ unu.
This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.
3 Gwa ọgbakọ ụmụ Izrel niile okwu sị ha, Nʼafọ ọbụla, nʼabalị iri nke ọnwa a, nwoke ọbụla ga-eweta nwa atụrụ nʼisi ezinaụlọ ọbụla.
Speak unto all the assembly of Israel, saying, On the tenth of this month let them take themselves each a lamb, for a father's house, a lamb for a house.
4 Ezinaụlọ ọbụla nke dịkarịrị nta, nke na-enweghị ike iweta na iricha otu nwa atụrụ, ga-ejekwuru ezinaụlọ ọzọ dịkwa nta, ka ha jikọtaa onwe ha ọnụ weta nwa atụrụ. Ndị ga-ejikọta onwe ha ọnụ aghaghị ibu ụzọ pịa mmadụ ole ha ga-adị nwee ike richaa otu atụrụ.
And if the household be too small for a lamb, let him and his neighbour next unto his house take [it] according to the number of the souls; each according to [the measure] of his eating shall ye count for the lamb.
5 Nwa atụrụ a ga-eweta ga-abụ oke gbara naanị otu afọ, nke na-enweghị ntụpọ ọbụla nʼahụ ya. Unu nwere ike họrọ atụrụ maọbụ ewu.
Your lamb shall be without blemish, a yearling male; ye shall take [it] from the sheep, or from the goats.
6 Unu ga-elekọta ya anya ruo nʼụbọchị nke iri na anọ nke ọnwa a. Nʼabalị ụbọchị ahụ ka ọgbakọ Izrel niile ga-egbu ya.
And ye shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month; and the whole congregation of the assembly of Israel shall kill it between the two evenings.
7 Ha ga-ewere ọbara ya tee nʼelu na nʼakụkụ ibo ọnụ ụzọ nke dị nʼezinaụlọ ha niile, ebe ha ga-anọ rie anụ atụrụ ahụ.
And they shall take of the blood, and put [it] on the two door-posts and on the lintel of the houses in which they eat it.
8 Ha ga-eri anụ atụrụ a, nke a ga-ahụ nʼọkụ nʼabalị ahụ, ya na achịcha na-ekoghị eko, na ahịhịa ndụ na-elu ilu.
And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; with bitter [herbs] shall they eat it.
9 A gaghị eri nwa atụrụ ọbụla na ndụ, a gaghị esikwa ya esi, kama a ga-ahụ ya nʼọkụ. A ga-ahụ akụkụ ahụ nwa atụrụ ọbụla nʼọkụ, tinyere isi ya, ụkwụ ya na ihe dị nʼime afọ ya.
Ye shall eat none of it raw, nor boiled at all with water, but roast with fire; its head with its legs and with its in-wards.
10 Unu agaghị erifọdụ ya ruo nʼụtụtụ echi ya. Nke ọbụla ga-afọdụ nʼabalị ahụ, a ga-akpọ ya ọkụ.
And ye shall let none of it remain until the morning; and what remaineth of it until the morning ye shall burn with fire.
11 Otu a ka unu ga-esi rie ya: yirinụ uwe unu, na akpụkpọụkwụ unu. Jirikwanụ mkpara unu. Jikerenụ dịka ndị na-aga njem dị anya. Unu ga-eri anụ atụrụ a na achịcha na-ekoghị eko ngwangwa. A ga-akpọ oriri a Mmemme Ngabiga Onyenwe anyị.
And thus shall ye eat it: your loins shall be girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste; it is Jehovah's passover.
12 “Aga m agafe nʼala Ijipt nʼabalị ahụ, igbu ndị ikom niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ nʼala Ijipt, ma mmadụ, ma anụmanụ. Aga m emekwa ka ikpe ọmụma bịakwasị chi ndị ọzọ ahụ niile Ijipt na-efe ofufe. Abụ m Onyenwe anyị.
And I will go through the land of Egypt in that night, and smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am Jehovah.
13 Ọbara ahụ unu ga-ete nʼọnụ ibo ụlọ unu ga-abụ ihe ama igosi ebe unu bi, nʼihi na mgbe m hụrụ ọbara ahụ, aga m agafe unu. Ọ nwekwaghị ihe otiti ga-abịakwasị unu mgbe m ga-egbu ndị Ijipt.
And the blood shall be for you as a sign on the houses in which ye are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you; and the plague shall not be among you for destruction, when I smite the land of Egypt.
14 “Ụbọchị a ga-abụrụ unu ihe ncheta nye ọgbọ niile ndị na-eso nʼazụ. Unu ga-emekwa ya ka ọ bụrụ mmemme nye Onyenwe anyị. Ụkpụrụ nke na-adịgide adịgide site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ.
And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall celebrate it [as] a feast to Jehovah; throughout your generations [as] an ordinance for ever shall ye celebrate it.
15 Ụbọchị asaa ka unu ga-eri achịcha na-ekoghị eko. Nʼụbọchị mbụ nke ụbọchị asaa ahụ, ka unu ga-esite nʼụlọ unu wezuga ihe iko achịcha niile, nʼihi na onye ọbụla riri nri nke ihe na-eko achịcha dị nʼime ya site nʼụbọchị mbụ ruo nʼụbọchị nke asaa, aghaghị ibipụ ya site nʼala Izrel.
Seven days shall ye eat unleavened bread: on the very first day ye shall put away leaven out of your houses; for whoever eateth leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day — that soul shall be cut off from Israel.
16 Unu ga-ewere ụbọchị mbụ na ụbọchị nke asaa, nke mmemme ahụ, nwee mkpọkọta dị nsọ. Onye ọbụla agaghị arụ ọrụ ọbụla nʼụbọchị abụọ ndị a, karịakwa isi nri unu ga-eri.
And on the first day ye shall have a holy convocation, and on the seventh day a holy convocation: no manner of work shall be done on them, save what is eaten by every person — that only shall be done by you.
17 “Unu ga-edobekwa mmemme achịcha na-ekoghị eko nʼihi na ọ bụ nʼime otu ụbọchị a ka m sitere nʼala Ijipt kpọpụta unu dịka usuu ndị agha. Unu ga-emekwa mmemme ụbọchị a ka ọ bụrụ ụkpụrụ nke na-adịgide adịgide site nʼọgbọ ruo nʼọgbọ
And ye shall keep the [feast of] unleavened [bread]; for in this same day have I brought your hosts out of the land of Egypt; and ye shall keep this day in your generations [as] an ordinance for ever.
18 Nʼọnwa mbụ, nʼanyasị nke ụbọchị nke iri na anọ, ka unu ga-eri achịcha a na-ejighị ihe na-eko achịcha mee ruo nʼanyasị nke ụbọchị iri abụọ na otu.
In the first [month], on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, ye shall eat unleavened bread until the one and twentieth day of the month in the evening.
19 Nʼime ụbọchị asaa ahụ, agaghị ahụ ihe na-eko achịcha nʼụlọ unu. A ga-esite nʼọgbakọ ndị Izrel bipụ onye ọbụla riri ihe ọbụla nke ihe na-eko achịcha dị nʼime ya. Iwu a dịrị ndị ọbịa niile nʼala Izrel, dịkwara ndị nwa afọ ala.
Seven days shall there be no leaven found in your houses; for whoever eateth what is leavened — that soul shall be cut off from the assembly of Israel, whether he be a sojourner, or born in the land.
20 Unu agaghị eri ihe ọbụla e ji ihe na-eko achịcha mee. Nʼebe obibi unu niile, ọ bụ naanị achịcha na-ekoghị eko ka unu ga-eri.”
Ye shall eat nothing leavened: in all your dwellings shall ye eat unleavened bread.
21 Mgbe ahụ, Mosis kpọkọtara ndị okenye ụmụ Izrel niile gwa ha okwu sị, “Gaanụ họpụta ụmụ atụrụ nʼihi agbụrụ unu niile, gbuonụ atụrụ ngabiga ndị a.
And Moses called all the elders of Israel, and said to them, Seize and take yourselves lambs for your families, and kill the passover.
22 Were ahịhịa hisọp, denye ya nʼọbara si nʼatụrụ ndị a nke a ga-awụnye nʼefere, tee ya nʼelu ibo na nʼakụkụ abụọ nke ọnụ ụzọ ụlọ unu. Onye ọbụla nʼime unu agaghị apụ nʼezi tutu ruo ụtụtụ.
And take a bunch of hyssop, and dip [it] in the blood that is in the bason, and smear the lintel and the two door-posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning.
23 Mgbe Onyenwe anyị ga-agafe igbu ndị Ijipt, ọ ga-ahụ ọbara ahụ nʼawara na mbudo ibo ọnụ ụzọ ụlọ unu. Ọ ga-agafe ụlọ unu, gharakwa ikwe ka onye mbibi bata nʼụlọ unu gbuo unu.
And Jehovah will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he sees the blood on the lintel, and on the two door-posts, Jehovah will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come into your houses to smite [you].
24 “Unu ga-edobe mmemme a dịka iwu ga-adịgide nye unu na ụmụ unu.
And ye shall observe this as an ordinance for thee and for thy sons for ever.
25 Mgbe unu batara nʼala ahụ Onyenwe anyị ga-enye unu dịka o kwere na nkwa, unu ga-edobe ofufe a.
And it shall come to pass, when ye are come into the land that Jehovah will give you, as he has promised, that ye shall keep this service.
26 Mgbe ụmụ unu ga-ajụ unu ajụjụ sị, ‘Gịnị ka ofufe a pụtara?’
And it shall come to pass, when your children shall say to you, What mean ye by this service?
27 Unu ga-azaghachi ha sị, ‘Ọ bụ aja ngabiga anyị na-achụrụ Onyenwe anyị nʼihi na ọ gafere ụlọ ụmụ Izrel nʼala Ijipt, mgbe o gburu ndị Ijipt, ma o nweghị onye ọbụla nʼime anyị o gburu.’”
that ye shall say, It is a sacrifice of passover to Jehovah, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt when he smote the Egyptians and delivered our houses. And the people bowed their heads and worshipped.
28 Ụmụ Izrel mezuru ihe niile Onyenwe anyị gwara ha site nʼọnụ Mosis na Erọn.
And the children of Israel went away, and did as Jehovah had commanded Moses and Aaron; so did they.
29 Nʼime etiti abalị ụbọchị ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gburu ndị ikom niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ nʼala Ijipt, malite nʼọkpara Fero onye nọ nʼocheeze ya, ruo nʼọkpara nke onye Ijipt nọ nʼụlọ mkpọrọ olulu. O gbukwara ụmụ anụ ụlọ niile e bụ ụzọ mụọ.
And it came to pass that at midnight Jehovah smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of cattle.
30 Nʼabalị ahụ kwa, Fero na ndị ozi ya, na ndị Ijipt niile biliri. Oke iti mkpu akwa dakwara nʼala Ijipt, nʼihi na ọ dịghị ezinaụlọ ọnwụ na-erughị.
And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his bondmen, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house in which there was not one dead.
31 Nʼotu abalị ahụ, Fero zipụrụ ozi ka a kpọ Mosis na Erọn. Mgbe ha bịara, ọ gwara ha sị, “Ngwa bilienụ, unu bụ ụmụ Izrel niile. Kewapụnụ onwe unu site nʼetiti anyị. Gaanụ, fee Onyenwe anyị unu ofufe dịka unu rịọrọ.
And he called Moses and Aaron in the night, and said, Rise up, go away from among my people, both ye and the children of Israel; and go, serve Jehovah, as ye have said.
32 Durunụ igwe ehi na atụrụ unu mgbe unu na-aga. Gọziekwanụ m mgbe unu na-apụ.”
Also take your flocks and your herds, as ye have said, and go; and bless me also.
33 Ndị Ijipt gbalịrị ime ka ụmụ Izrel hapụ ha ngwangwa. Ha sịrịtara onwe ha, “Ọ bụrụ na ụmụ Izrel ahapụghị anyị ugbu a, anyị niile ga-anwụkwa.”
And the Egyptians urged the people, to send them out of the land in haste; for they said, We are all dead [men]!
34 Ya mere, ụmụ Izrel buuru ụtụ ọka e ji eme achịcha na-ekoghị eko, nke ha tinyere nʼefere e ji agwakọta ya. Ha ji akwa kechie ha, bukwasị ha nʼubu ha.
And the people took their dough before it was leavened; their kneading-troughs bound up in their clothes upon their shoulders.
35 Ha mekwara ihe ndị ọzọ dịka Mosis gwara ha. Ha rịọrọ ndị Ijipt ka ha nye ha ihe iji ngwa nke ọlaọcha na ọlaedo, na uwe.
And the children of Israel had done according to the word of Moses, and they had asked of the Egyptians utensils of silver, and utensils of gold, and clothing.
36 Onyenwe anyị nyere ndị ya amara nʼihu ndị Ijipt, ha nyere ha ihe niile ha rịọrọ. Site nʼụzọ dị otu a, ụmụ Izrel napụtara ndị Ijipt ihe niile ha ji biri nʼụlọ.
And Jehovah had given the people favour in the eyes of the Egyptians, and they gave to them; and they spoiled the Egyptians.
37 Mgbe nke a gasịrị, ụmụ Izrel malitere ije ha site na Ramesis. Mgbe ha hapụrụ Ramesis, na-eje Sukọt, ha dị narị puku ndị ikom isii, na-agụghị ndị inyom na ụmụntakịrị.
And the children of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot [that were] men, besides children.
38 Ọtụtụ mmadụ dị iche iche sooro ha nʼije ha. Ha dukwa igwe anụ ụlọ, igwe ewu na atụrụ ha, nke dị ukwu nʼọnụọgụgụ.
And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks and herds — very much cattle.
39 Ha ji ụtụ ọka ha si Ijipt buputa mee achịcha na-ekoghị eko. Nʼihi na a chụpụrụ ha achụpụ site nʼIjipt, ha enweghị ezi ohere kwadooro onwe ha ihe oriri.
And they baked the dough that they brought forth out of Egypt into unleavened cakes, for it was not leavened; for they were driven out of Egypt, and could not wait; neither had they prepared for themselves any food.
40 Tupu ha ahapụ ala Ijipt, ụmụ Izrel ebiela nʼebe ahụ narị afọ anọ na iri afọ atọ.
And the residence of the children of Israel that they resided in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years.
41 Mgbe narị afọ anọ na iri afọ atọ zuru, nʼụbọchị ahụ o zuru, usuu ndị Onyenwe anyị niile hapụrụ Ijipt.
And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, on that same day it came to pass that all the hosts of Jehovah went out from the land of Egypt.
42 Onyenwe anyị chere nche nʼabalị ụbọchị ahụ maka ịkpọpụta ha site nʼala Ijipt. Nʼihi ya, abalị ụbọchị ahụ bụ mgbe pụrụ iche nye ụmụ Izrel maka iji iche nche sọpụrụ Onyenwe anyị nʼọgbọ ha niile.
It is a night of observance to Jehovah, because of their being brought out from the land of Egypt: that same night is an observance to Jehovah for all the children of Israel in their generations.
43 Onyenwe anyị kpọrọ Mosis na Erọn gwa ha sị, “Ndị a bụ usoro iwu metụtara Mmemme Ngabiga: “Onye mba ọzọ agaghị eri anụ nwa atụrụ ahụ.
And Jehovah said to Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the passover: No stranger shall eat of it;
44 Ohu ọbụla a kwụrụ ụgwọ nʼisi ya ga-eri ya naanị ma e biri ya ugwu.
but every man's bondman that is bought for money — let him be circumcised: then shall he eat it.
45 Ohu e goro ọrụ, maọbụ onye ọbịa ọbụla agaghị eri ya.
A settler and a hired servant shall not eat it.
46 “A ga-eri ya naanị nʼime otu ụlọ. Ọ gaghị apụ nʼezi. Unu agaghị atapịa ọkpụkpụ ọbụla nke nwa atụrụ ahụ.
In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry forth any of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a bone thereof.
47 Nzukọ niile nke ụmụ Izrel ga-eme Mmemme Ngabiga a.
All the assembly of Israel shall hold it.
48 “Onye mba ọzọ bi nʼetiti unu chọrọ isoro unu na Mmemme Ngabiga Onyenwe anyị aghaghị ibi ndị ikom niile nọ nʼezinaụlọ ya ugwu. Mgbe ahụ, ọ ga-abịaru nso isoro na mmemme, nʼihi na a ga-agụ ya dịka nwa afọ ala. Ọ dịghị onye ikom a na-ebighị ugwu ga-eri nri ahụ.
And when a sojourner sojourneth with thee, and would hold the passover to Jehovah, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and hold it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land; but no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.
49 Otu iwu a dịrị nwa afọ ala na ndị ọbịa niile bi nʼala Izrel.”
One law shall be for him that is home-born and for the sojourner that sojourneth among you.
50 Ụmụ Izrel mere ihe ndị a niile, dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere ha nʼiwu site nʼọnụ Mosis na Erọn.
And all the children of Israel did as Jehovah had commanded Moses and Aaron; so did they.
51 Ọ bụkwa nʼotu ụbọchị ahụ ka Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼala Ijipt dupụta ụmụ Izrel, dịka usuu ha niile si dị.
And it came to pass on that same day, [that] Jehovah brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt according to their hosts.
