Ekoruhe 13
1 A i korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi, i mea,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
2 Whakatapua maku nga mea matamua katoa; nga mea katoa a nga tama a Iharaira e oroko puta mai ana i te kopu, a te tangata, a te kararehe, maku.
'Sanctify to Me every first-born, opening any womb among the sons of Israel, among man and among beast; it [is] Mine.'
3 A i mea a Mohi ki te iwi, Kia mahara ki tenei ra i haere atu ai koutou i Ihipa, i te whare pononga; he kaha hoki te ringa i whakaputaina ai koutou e Ihowa i konei: kaua hoki te taro rewena e kainga.
And Moses saith unto the people, 'Remember this day [in] which ye have gone out from Egypt, from the house of servants, for by strength of hand hath Jehovah brought you out from this, and any thing fermented is not eaten;
4 Ko te ra tenei i haere atu ai koutou, ko Apipi te marama.
To-day ye are going out, in the month of Abib.
5 Na ka kawea koe a mua e Ihowa ki te whenua o nga Kanaani, o nga Hiti, o nga Amori, o nga Hiwi, o nga Iepuhi, i oati ai ia ki ou matua ka hoatu ki a koe, he whenua e rerengia ana e te waiu, e te honi, ko reira koe mahi ai i tenei mea, i tenei mara ma ano.
'And it hath been, when Jehovah bringeth thee in unto the land of the Canaanite, and of the Hittite, and of the Amorite, and of the Hivite, and of the Jebusite, which He hath sworn to thy fathers to give to thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou hast done this service in this month.
6 E whitu nga ra e kai ai koe i te taro rewenakore, a hei te ra whitu te hakari a Ihowa.
'Seven days thou dost eat unleavened things, and in the seventh day [is] a feast to Jehovah;
7 E whitu nga ra e kainga ai te taro rewenakore: aua hoki te taro rewena e kitea ki a koe; aua ano e kitea ki a koe he rewena i ou rohe katoa.
unleavened things are eaten the seven days, and any thing fermented is not seen with thee; yea, leaven is not seen with thee in all thy border.
8 A mau e korero ki tau tama i taua ra, e mea, Mo ta Ihowa i mea ai ki ahau tenei, i toku haerenga mai i Ihipa.
'And thou hast declared to thy son in that day, saying, '[It is] because of what Jehovah did to me, in my going out from Egypt,
9 Hei tohu ano tena ki a koe i tou ringa, hei whakamahara hoki ki waenganui i ou kanohi; kia mau ai te ture a Ihowa i roto i tou waha: he kaha hoki te ringa i whakaputaina ai koe e Ihowa i Ihipa.
and it hath been to thee for a sign on thy hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, so that the law of Jehovah is in thy mouth, for by a strong hand hath Jehovah brought thee out from Egypt;
10 Na kia mau ki tenei tikanga i tona wa ano, i tenei tau, i tenei tau.
and thou hast kept this statute at its appointed season from days to days.
11 Na ka kawea koe e Ihowa ki te whenua o nga Kanaani, ki tana i oati ai ki a koutou ko ou matua, a ka homai a reira e ia ki a koe,
'And it hath been, when Jehovah bringeth thee in unto the land of the Canaanite, as He hath sworn to thee and to thy fathers, and hath given it to thee,
12 Ko reira wehea ai e koe ma Ihowa nga mea katoa e puta tuatahi mai ana i te kopu, me nga matamua katoa o au kararehe; ko nga tane ma Ihowa.
that thou hast caused every one opening a womb to pass over to Jehovah, and every firstling — the increase of beasts which thou hast: the males [are] Jehovah's.
13 Otiia, me utu e koe ki te reme nga matamua katoa a te kaihe; a ki te kahore e utua e koe, whatiia tona kaki: ko nga matamua katoa hoki a te tangata, i roto i au tamariki, me utu e koe.
'And every firstling of an ass thou dost ransom with a lamb, and if thou dost not ransom [it], then thou hast beheaded it: and every first-born of man among thy sons thou dost ransom.
14 A, tenei ake, ki te ui tau tama ki a koe a mua, ki te mea, He aha tenei? Na ka mea ki a ia, He kaha te ringa i whakaputaina mai ai matou e Ihowa i Ihipa, i te whare pononga:
'And it hath been, when thy son asketh thee hereafter, saying, What [is] this? that thou hast said unto him, By strength of hand hath Jehovah brought us out from Egypt, from a house of servants;
15 A, i te mea ka pakeke a Parao ki te tuku i a matou, na patua iho e Ihowa nga matamua katoa o te whenua o Ihipa, te matamua a te tangata, te matamua ano hoki a te kararehe: na reira i patua ai e ahau ma Ihowa nga mea katoa e puta tuatahi mai ana i te kopu, nga toa; ko nga matamua katoa ia o aku tama e utua ana e ahau.
yea, it cometh to pass, when Pharaoh hath been pained to send us away, that Jehovah doth slay every first-born in the land of Egypt, from the first-born of man even unto the first-born of beast; therefore I am sacrificing to Jehovah all opening a womb who [are] males, and every first-born of my sons I ransom;
16 A, hei tohu tena ki tou ringa hei pare ki waenganui i ou kanohi: he kaha hoki te ringa i whakaputaina mai ai matou e Ihowa i Ihipa.
and it hath been for a token on thy hand, and for frontlets between thine eyes, for by strength of hand hath Jehovah brought us out of Egypt.'
17 A, i te tukunga o te iwi e Parao, kihai a Ihowa i arahi i a ratou na te huarahi i te whenua o nga Pirihitini, ahakoa tata tera: i mea hoki te Atua, Kei awangawanga te iwi, ua kite ratou i te pakanga, a ka hoki ki Ihipa:
And it cometh to pass in Pharaoh's sending the people away, that God hath not led them the way of the land of the Philistines, for it [is] near; for God said, 'Lest the people repent in their seeing war, and have turned back towards Egypt;'
18 Engari i arahina awhiotia te iwi e te Atua na te huarahi i te koraha o te Moana Whero: a haere topuni ana nga tama a Iharaira i te whenua o Ihipa.
and God turneth round the people the way of the wilderness of the Red Sea, and by fifties have the sons of Israel gone up from the land of Egypt.
19 I maua atu ano e Mohi nga wheua o Hohepa; nana hoki i whakaoati marie nga tama a Iharaira, i mea, Ka tikina mai koutou, ka ata tirohia e te Atua; a ma koutou e mau atu oku wheua i konei.
And Moses taketh the bones of Joseph with him, for he certainly caused the sons of Israel to swear, saying, 'God doth certainly inspect you, and ye have brought up my bones from this with you.'
20 A ka turia mai e ratou i Hukota, a noho rawa ki Etama, ki te pito o te koraha.
And they journey from Succoth, and encamp in Etham at the extremity of the wilderness,
21 A haere ana a Ihowa i mua i a ratou, i te pou kapua i te awatea, hei arahi i a ratou i te huarahi; i te pou kapura ano i te po, hei whakamarama i a ratou; kia haere ai ratou i te ao, i te po.
and Jehovah is going before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them in the way, and by night in a pillar of fire, to give light to them, to go by day and by night;
22 Kihai i tangohia e ia te pou kapua i te aroaro o te iwi i te awatea, me te pou kapura hoki i te po.
He removeth not the pillar of the cloud by day, and the pillar of the fire by night, [from] before the people.
