Okuva 13
1 Awo Mukama n’agamba Musa nti,
Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “Ebibereberye byonna binjawulireko. Abaana abaggulanda mu Isirayiri yonna banaabanga bange; n’ebisolo ebiggulanda nabyo binaabanga byange.”
"Set apart to me all the firstborn. Whatever is first from the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and of animal; 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 to the people, "Remember this day in which you came out from Egypt, out of the house of slavery, for with a mighty hand the LORD brought you out from this place. No leavened bread shall be eaten.
4 Ku lunaku lwa leero olw’omwezi guno Abibu, lwe musitudde okuva mu Misiri.
On this day, in the month of Abib, you are going out.
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 brings you into the land of the Canaanite, and the Hethite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Girgashite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, which he swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you must keep this ceremony in this month.
6 Mumalanga ennaku musanvu nga mulya emigaati egitaliimu kizimbulukusa, ne ku lunaku olw’omusanvu kwe munaakoleranga embaga ya Mukama.
Six days you are to eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day is 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 is to be eaten throughout the seven days. Nothing leavened is to be seen among you, nor is any leaven to be seen among you in all your territory.
8 Ku lunaku olwo mulitegeeza abaana bammwe nti, ‘Tukola tuti nga tujjukira ebyo Mukama bye yatukolera nga tuva mu Misiri.’
And you are to tell your son on that day, saying, 'It is because of what the LORD did for me when I came 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 as a sign to you on your hand and as a reminder between your eyes, so that the law of the LORD may be in your mouth, for with a mighty hand the LORD brought you out of Egypt.
10 Noolwekyo onookolanga ekiragiro kino bye kigamba, mu kiseera kyakyo buli mwaka, buli mwaka.
Therefore you are to keep this ordinance at its appointed time 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 brings you into the land of the Canaanites, as he swore to you and to your fathers, and gives it to you,
12 Mukama mumwawulirangako ebiggulanda byonna. Zisseddume zonna embereberye ez’amagana gammwe zinaabanga za Mukama.
that you are to set apart to the LORD everything that is first from the womb. Every firstborn male animal belongs to the LORD.
13 Buli kalogoyi akabereberye mukawaanyisangamu omwana gw’endiga ne mukanunulayo, naye bwe mutaakanunulenga mukamenyanga ensingo ne kafa. Ne buli mutabani wammwe omubereberye mumununulanga.
Every firstborn of a donkey you are to redeem with a lamb, but if you will not redeem it, then you must break its neck. And every firstborn of man among your sons you must 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 your son asks you in the future, saying, 'What is this?' then you are to tell him, 'With a mighty hand the LORD brought us out from Egypt, from the house of slavery.
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 happened, when Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us go, that the LORD killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of people and the firstborn of animals. This is why I am sacrificing to the LORD any male that is first from the womb of an animal, but all my firstborn 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.”
So it will be as a sign on your hand and at the front of a headband around your forehead, for with a mighty hand the LORD brought us 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.”
Then it came to pass when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God did not lead them by the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was nearby, for God said, "Lest the people change their minds when they see war and 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.
So God led the people around by the way of the wilderness to the Red Sea. And the children of Israel went up from the land of Egypt prepared for battle.
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 made the children of Israel swear an oath, saying, "God will surely attend to you, and you are to carry my bones up with you from this place."
20 Bwe baava e Sukkosi ne bakuba eweema zaabwe mu Yesamu eddungu we litandikira.
Then they set out from Succoth and camped at Etham on 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 God went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead them on their way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day and by night.
22 Empagi ey’ekire ey’emisana, n’empagi ey’omuliro ey’ekiro tezaggibwawo mu maaso g’abantu obudde bwonna.
He did not take away the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire at night from in front of the people.
