Exodus 13

1 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

2 “Srela wounse mukul nukewa nu sik, tuh wounse mukul nutin mwet Israel ac wounse mukul nutin kosro ac fah ma nutik.”

Sanctify to me every firstborn, first produced, opening every womb amongst the children of Israel both of man and beast: it is mine.

3 Moses el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Esam len se inge — len se ma kowos tuh illa liki facl Egypt, acn se ma kowos tuh mwet kohs we. Pa inge len se ma LEUM GOD El uskowosme ke ku lulap lal. Kowos fah tia mongo bread pulol ke len se inge.

And Moses said to the people, Remember this day, in which you came forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, for with a strong hand the Lord brought you forth thence; and leaven shall not be eaten.

4 Kowos ac som liki Egypt ke len se inge ke malem se meet, malem in Abib.

For on this day you go forth in the month of new [corn].

5 LEUM GOD El oru sie wulela ku nu sin mwet matu lowos meet ah mu El ac sot acn sin mwet Canaan, mwet Hit, mwet Amor, mwet Hiv, ac mwet Jebus tuh in acn suwos. Ke El ac uskowosla nu in acn sac, sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we, kowos fah akfulatye len in kufwa se inge ke malem se meet in yac nukewa.

And it shall come to pass when the Lord your God shall have brought you into the land of the Chananites, and the Chettites, and Amorites, and Evites, and Jebusites, and Gergesites, and Pherezites, which he sware to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall perform this service in this month.

6 Ke len itkosr kowos fah mongo bread wangin mwe pulol kac, ac ke len se akitkosr kowos fah orek kufwa in akfulatye LEUM GOD.

Six days you shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day is a feast to the Lord.

7 Ke len itkosr kowos fah tia mongo bread ma orekla ke mwe pulol. Ac fah wangin mwe pulol ku bread pulol in kutena acn in facl suwos.

Seven days shall you eat unleavened bread; nothing leavened shall be seen with you, neither shall you have leaven in all your borders.

8 Ke mutaweyen len in kufwa uh, kowos in aketeya nu sin wen nutuwos lah kowos oru ma inge nukewa ke sripen ma LEUM GOD El oru nu suwos ke kowos illa liki facl Egypt.

And you shall tell your son in that day, saying, Therefore the Lord dealt thus with me, as I was going out of Egypt.

9 Len in kufwa se inge ac fah sie mwe esmakin, oana mwe esmakin ma kowos kapriya ke pouwos ku ke motonsruwos. Ac fah akesmakye kowos in kalwenina in fahkak ac luti Ma Sap lun LEUM GOD, mweyen LEUM GOD El uskowosme liki facl Egypt ke ku lulap lal.

And it shall be to you a sign upon your hand and a memorial before your eyes, that the law of the Lord may be in your mouth, for with a strong hand the Lord God brought you out of Egypt.

10 Kowos in oru na kufwa se inge ke pacl srisrsrisri nu kac ke kais sie yac.

And preserve you this law according to the times of the seasons, from year to year.

11 “LEUM GOD El ac uskowosme nu in facl sin mwet Canaan, oana El tuh orek wulela ku kac nu suwos ac mwet matu lowos meet ah. Ke El ac sot facl sacn nu suwos,

And it shall come to pass when the Lord your God shall bring you into the land of the Chananites, as he sware to your fathers, and shall give it you,

12 kowos fah srela wounse mukul nukewa nutuwos nu sin LEUM GOD, oayapa wounse mukul nutin kosro nutuwos ac fah ma lun LEUM GOD.

that you shall set apart every [offspring] opening the womb, the males to the Lord, every one that opens the womb out of the herds or amongst your cattle, as many as you shall have: you shall sanctify the males to the Lord.

13 Kais soko wounse mukul nutin donkey nutuwos an kowos ac moli ke soko sheep fusr. Kowos fin tia lungse moli, na koteya kwawal. Kowos enenu na in molela wounse mukul nukewa nutuwos uh.

Every [offspring] opening the womb of the ass you shall change for a sheep; and if you will not change it, you shall redeem it: every firstborn of man of your sons shall you redeem.

14 In pacl fahsru uh, ke wen nutuwos ac siyuk suwos, ‘Mea kalmen ma inge?’ kowos fah topkolos mu, ‘LEUM GOD El tuh uskutme ke ku lulap lal liki facl Egypt, acn se ma kut tuh mwet kohs we.

And if your son should ask you hereafter, saying, What is this? then you shall say to him, With a strong hand the Lord brought us out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

15 Ke pacl se tokosra lun acn Egypt el akupaye nankal ac tia filikutla in som, LEUM GOD El uniya wounse mukul nukewa nutin mwet Egypt, ac wounse mukul nukewa nutin kosro. Pa pwanang kut kisakin wounse mukul nutin kosro uh nu sin LEUM GOD, a kut molela wounse mukul natusr uh.

And when Pharao hardened [his heart so as not] to send us away, he killed every firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of man and the firstborn of beast; therefore do I sacrifice every [offspring] that opens the womb, the males to the Lord, and every firstborn of my sons I will redeem.

16 Ouiya se inge ac fah sie mwe esmakin, oana sie ma kapiryang nu ke pouwos ku nu ke motonsruwos. Ac fah mwe esmakin ke LEUM GOD El tuh uskutme liki Egypt ke ku lulap lal!’”

And it shall be for a sign upon your hand, and immovable before your eyes, for with a strong hand the Lord brought you out of Egypt.

17 Pacl se ke tokosra lun Egypt el fuhlela mwet uh in som, God El tia usalos ke inkanek soko ma ut weacn uh nu Philistia, finne pa fototo uh. God El fahk mu, “Nga tia lungse mwet uh in ekulla nunak lalos ac folok nu Egypt ke elos liye lah elos ac enenu in mweuni mwet lokoalok lalos.”

And when Pharao sent forth the people, God led them not by the way of the land of the Phylistines, because it was near; for God said, Lest at any time the people repent when they see war, and return to Egypt.

18 Ouinge El kololos ke inkanek na loeloes in acn mwesis ma som nu Meoa Srusra. Ke mwet Israel elos illa liki Egypt elos us kufwen mweun natulos.

And God led the people round by the way to the wilderness, to the Red Sea: and in the fifth generation the children of Israel went up out of the land of Egypt.

19 Moses el us srel Joseph welul, oana ke Joseph el tuh arulana wili nu sin mwet Israel ac fahk, “Pacl se God El ac uskowosla liki facl se inge, kowos fah us srik in wi kowos som.”

And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him, for he had solemnly adjured the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones hence with you.

20 Mwet Israel som liki acn Sukkoth ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos in acn Etham, sisken yen mwesis.

And the children of Israel departed from Socchoth, and encamped in Othom by the wilderness.

21 Ke len, LEUM GOD El fahsr meet lukelos ke sie sru in pukunyeng in akkalemye nu selos acn elos ac ut we, ac ke fong uh El fahsr meet lukelos ke sie sru in e, in sang kalem nu selos. Ouinge elos ku in fahsr ke fong ac ke len.

And God led them, in the day by a pillar of cloud, to show them the way, and in the night by a pillar of fire.

22 Sru in pukunyeng uh fahsr meet lukelos pacl nukewa ke len, ac sru in e uh ke fong.

And the pillar of cloud failed not by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, before all the people.
