Okuva 13
1 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
2 “Ebibereberye byonna binjawulireko. Abaana abaggulanda mu Isirayiri yonna banaabanga bange; n’ebisolo ebiggulanda nabyo binaabanga byange.”
'Sanctify unto Me all the first-born, whatsoever openeth the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and of beast, it is Mine.'
3 Awo Musa n’agamba abantu nti, “Mujjukiranga olunaku luno, olunaku lwe mwaviirako mu Misiri, ensi gye mwafugibwanga ng’abaddu, kubanga Mukama yabaggyayo n’omukono gwe ogw’amaanyi. Temuliirangako mugaati gulimu kizimbulukusa.
And Moses said unto the people: 'Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out from this place; there shall no leavened bread be eaten.
4 Ku lunaku lwa leero olw’omwezi guno Abibu, lwe musitudde okuva mu Misiri.
This day ye go forth in the month Abib.
5 Mukama bw’alimala okubatuusa mu nsi y’Abakanani, n’Abakiiti, n’Abamoli; n’ey’Abakiivi, n’Abayebusi, ensi gye yalayirira bajjajjammwe okugibawa, ensi ekulukuta amata n’omubisi gw’enjuki, mukwatanga omukolo guno mu mwezi guno.
And it shall be when the LORD shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, which He swore unto thy fathers to give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou shalt keep this service in this month.
6 Mumalanga ennaku musanvu nga mulya emigaati egitaliimu kizimbulukusa, ne ku lunaku olw’omusanvu kwe munaakoleranga embaga ya Mukama.
Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, and in the seventh day shall be a feast to the LORD.
7 Munaalyanga emigaati egitali mizimbulukuse okumala ennaku musanvu; tewabangawo alabika n’omugaati omuzimbulukuse, wadde ekizimbulukusa okusangibwa nammwe mu nsi yammwe.
Unleavened bread shall be eaten throughout the seven days; and there shall no leavened bread be seen with thee, neither shall there be leaven seen with thee, in all thy borders.
8 Ku lunaku olwo mulitegeeza abaana bammwe nti, ‘Tukola tuti nga tujjukira ebyo Mukama bye yatukolera nga tuva mu Misiri.’
And thou shalt tell thy son in that day, saying: It is because of that which the LORD did for me when I came forth out of Egypt.
9 Omukolo guno gunaababeereranga ng’akabonero ku mikono gyammwe, oba mu byenyi wakati w’amaaso gammwe, okubajjukizanga etteeka lya Mukama eritaavenga ku mimwa gyammwe. Kubanga Mukama yabaggya mu Misiri n’omukono gwe ogw’amaanyi.
And it shall be for a sign unto thee upon thy hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, that the law of the LORD may be in thy mouth; for with a strong hand hath the LORD brought thee out of Egypt.
10 Noolwekyo onookolanga ekiragiro kino bye kigamba, mu kiseera kyakyo buli mwaka, buli mwaka.
Thou shalt therefore keep this ordinance in its season from year to year.
11 “Mukama ng’amaze okubatuusa mu nsi y’Abakanani, nga bwe yabalayirira mmwe ne bajjajja bammwe, era agenda kugibawa,
And it shall be when the LORD shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanite, as He swore unto thee and to thy fathers, and shall give it thee,
12 Mukama mumwawulirangako ebiggulanda byonna. Zisseddume zonna embereberye ez’amagana gammwe zinaabanga za Mukama.
that thou shalt set apart unto the LORD all that openeth the womb; every firstling that is a male, which thou hast coming of a beast, shall be the LORD'S.
13 Buli kalogoyi akabereberye mukawaanyisangamu omwana gw’endiga ne mukanunulayo, naye bwe mutaakanunulenga mukamenyanga ensingo ne kafa. Ne buli mutabani wammwe omubereberye mumununulanga.
And every firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb; and if thou wilt not redeem it, then thou shalt break its neck; and all the first-born of man among thy sons shalt thou redeem.
14 “Awo olulituuka batabani bammwe, bwe bababuuzanga nti, ‘Kino kye mukola kitegeeza ki?’ Mubaddangamu nti, ‘Kubanga Mukama yatuggya mu Misiri, ensi ey’obuddu, n’omukono gwe ogw’amaanyi.
And it shall be when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying: What is this? that thou shalt say unto him: By strength of hand the LORD brought us out from Egypt, from the house of bondage;
15 Naye Falaawo bwe yali ng’akakanyadde ng’atugaanye okuvaayo, Mukama n’atta ebibereberye byonna mu nsi y’e Misiri; ababereberye b’abantu n’ebibereberye by’ebisolo. Noolwekyo kyetuva tuwaayo ssaddaaka eri Mukama ey’ebiggulanda byonna ebisajja; naye batabani baffe abaggulanda tubanunulayo.’
and it came to pass, when Pharaoh would hardly let us go that the LORD slew all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the first-born of man, and the first-born of beast; therefore I sacrifice to the LORD all that openeth the womb, being males; but all the first-born of my sons I redeem.
16 Omukolo ogwo gunaababeereranga ng’akabonero akookebbwa ku mikono gyammwe, oba mu byenyi wakati w’amaaso gammwe; kubanga Mukama yabaggya mu Misiri n’omukono gwe ogw’amaanyi.”
And it shall be for a sign upon thy hand, and for frontlets between thine eyes; for by strength of hand the LORD brought us forth out of Egypt.'
17 Awo abantu, bwe baasitula nga Falaawo amaze okubaleka, Katonda teyabayisa mu kkubo eriyita mu nsi y’Abafirisuuti, newaakubadde lye lyali ery’okumpi. Kubanga Katonda yagamba nti, “Singa bagwa mu lutalo, bayinza okwejjusa ne bawetamu ne baddayo e Misiri.”
And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not by the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said: 'Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and they return to Egypt.'
18 Bw’atyo Katonda n’abeekooloobya ng’abayisa mu kkubo ery’omu ddungu eriggukira ku Nnyanja Emyufu. Abaana ba Isirayiri baava mu nsi y’e Misiri nga bakutte ebyokulwanyisa byabwe nga beetegekedde okulwana.
But God led the people about, by the way of the wilderness by the Red Sea; and the children of Israel went up armed out of the land of Egypt.
19 Awo Musa n’avaayo n’amagumba ga Yusufu, kubanga Yusufu yali alayizza abaana ba Isirayiri. Yabagamba nti, “Ddala, ddala Mukama agenda kubadduukirira. Kale, amagumba gange mugendanga nago nga muva wano.”
And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him; for he had straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying: 'God will surely remember you; and ye shall carry up my bones away hence with you.'
20 Bwe baava e Sukkosi ne bakuba eweema zaabwe mu Yesamu eddungu we litandikira.
And they took their journey from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, in the edge of the wilderness.
21 Emisana Mukama yabakulemberanga ng’ali mu mpagi ey’ekire okubalaga ekkubo, n’ekiro ng’ali mu mpagi ey’omuliro okubamulisiza, balyoke batambulenga emisana n’ekiro.
And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; that they might go by day and by night:
22 Empagi ey’ekire ey’emisana, n’empagi ey’omuliro ey’ekiro tezaggibwawo mu maaso g’abantu obudde bwonna.
the pillar of cloud by day, and the pillar of fire by night, departed not from before the people.
