1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “Dhiira hangafa hunda addaan naa baasi; Israaʼeloota keessaa namas taʼu horiin hangafni gadameessa banu kam iyyuu kan koo ti.”
Sanctify unto me every firstborn that openeth the womb among the children of Israel, as well of men as of beasts: for they are all mine.
3 Yommus Museen uummataan akkana jedhe; “Sababii Waaqayyo irree jabaadhaan achii isin baaseef guyyaa itti mana garbummaatii Gibxi keessaa baatan kana yaadadhaa. Waan raacitii qabu tokko illee hin nyaatinaa.
And Moses said to the people: Remember this day in which you came forth out of Egypt, and out of the house of bondage, for with a strong hand hath the Lord brought you forth out of this place: that you eat no leavened bread.
4 Isin jiʼa Abiibii keessa guyyaa harʼaa baatan.
This day you go forth in the month of new corn.
5 Yeroo Waaqayyo gara biyya Kanaʼaanotaa, Heetotaa, Amoorotaa, biyya Hiiwotaa fi Yebuusotaatti jechuunis biyya aannanii fi damma baasu kan inni akka siif kennu abbootii keetiif kakate sanatti si galchutti ati jiʼa kana keessa ayyaana kana ayyaaneffatta;
And when the Lord shall have brought thee into the land of the Chanaanite, and the Hethite, and the Amorrhite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite, which he swore to thy fathers that he would give thee, a land that floweth with milk and honey, thou shalt celebrate this manner of sacred rites in this month.
6 ati bultii torba Maxinoo nyaatta; guyyaa torbaffaatti immoo ayyaana Waaqayyoo taʼa.
Seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread: and on the seventh day shall be the solemnity of the Lord.
7 Guyyaa torban sana Maxinoo nyaadhu; wanni raacitii qabu tokko iyyuu si biratti hin argamin; daangaa kee hunda keessattis raacitiin hin argamin.
Unleavened bread shall you eat seven days: there shall not be seen any thing leavened with thee, nor in all thy coasts.
8 Gaafas, ‘Ani waan Waaqayyo yeroo ani Gibxi keessaa baʼetti naa godhe sanaaf jedhee waan kana godha’ jedhiitii ilma keetti himi.
And thou shalt tell thy son in that day, saying: This is what the Lord did to me when I came forth out of Egypt.
9 Sirni kunis akka seerri Waaqayyoo arraba kee irra jiraatuuf harka kee irratti akka mallattoo, adda kee irratti immoo akka yaadannoo siif taʼa. Waaqayyo harka isaa jabaa sanaan Gibxii si baaseetii.
And it shall be as a sign in thy hand, and as a memorial before thy eyes: and that the law of the Lord be always in thy mouth, for with a strong hand the Lord hath brought thee out of the land of Egypt.
10 Atis sirna kana wagguma waggaan yeroo isaatti eeguu qabda.
Thou shalt keep this observance at the set time from days to days.
11 “Yommuu Waaqayyo akkuma siʼii fi abbootii keetiif kakuudhaan waadaa gale sanatti biyya Kanaʼaanotaatti si galchee biyyattii siif kennutti,
And when the Lord shall have brought thee into the land of the Chanaanite, as he swore to thee and thy fathers, and shall give it thee:
12 ati hangafa gadameessa banu hunda Waaqayyoof kennita. Kormi horii keetii hangafni hundinuus kan Waaqayyoo ti.
Thou shalt set apart all that openeth the womb for the Lord, and all that is first brought forth of thy cattle: whatsoever thou shalt have of the male sex, thou shalt consecrate to the Lord.
13 Harree hangafa kam iyyuu ilmoo hoolaatiin furi; yoo furuu baatte garuu morma isaa cabsi. Ilmaan kee keessaas hangafa kam iyyuu furi.
The firstborn of an ass thou shalt change for a sheep: and if thou do not redeem it, thou shalt kill it. And every firstborn of men thou shalt redeem with a price.
14 “Bara dhufuuf jiru keessa yoo ilmi kee, ‘Kun maal jechuu dha?’ jedhee si gaafate ati akkana jedhiin; ‘Waaqayyo harka jabaadhaan Gibxii, mana garbummaa keessaa nu baase.
And when thy son shall ask thee tomorrow, saying: What is this? thou shalt answer him: With a strong hand did the Lord bring us forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
15 Yommuu Faraʼoon mataa jabaatee gad nu dhiisuu didetti, Waaqayyo hangafa Gibxi hunda namaa fi horii ajjeese. Sababiin ani korma hangafa gadameessa banu hunda Waaqayyoof aarsaa dhiʼeessuu fi sababiin ani ilmaan koo keessaa hangafa hunda furuuf kanuma.’
For when Pharao was hardened, and would not let us go, the Lord slew every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of man to the firstborn of beasts: therefore I sacrifice to the Lord all that openeth the womb of the male sex, and all the firstborn of my sons I redeem.
16 Waaqayyo irree jabaadhaan Gibxii nu baasuu isaatiif wanni kun harka kee irratti mallattoo, adda kee irrattis mallattoo taʼa.”
And it shall be as a sign in thy hand, and as a thing hung between thy eyes, for a remembrance: because the Lord hath brought us forth out of Egypt by a strong hand.
17 Yeroo Faraʼoon saba sana gad dhiisetti karichi gabaabaa taʼu iyyuu Waaqni karaa biyya Filisxeem irra isaan hin qajeelchine; sababiin isaas Waaqni, “Isaan yoo waraanni isaan mudate yaada geeddarratanii Gibxitti deebiʼuu dandaʼan” jedhee ti.
And when Pharao had sent out the people, the Lord led them not by the way of the land of the Philistines which is near: thinking lest perhaps they would repent, if they should see wars arise against them, and would return into Egypt.
18 Kanaafuu Waaqni karaa naannoo gammoojjiitiin gara Galaana Diimaatti saba sana qajeelche. Israaʼeloonnis waraanaaf qophaaʼanii biyya Gibxiitii baʼan.
But he led them about by the way of the desert, which is by the Red Sea: and the children of Israel went up armed out of the land of Egypt.
19 Sababii Yoosef, “Waaqni dhugumaan isin gargaara; isinis gaafas lafee koo asii fuudhaa baʼaa” jedhee Israaʼeloonni kakachiisee tureef Museen lafee Yoosef fuudhee baʼe.
And Moses took Joseph’s bones with him: because he had adjured the children of Israel, saying: God shall visit you, carry out my bones from hence with you.
20 Isaanis Sukootii kaʼanii Eetaam keessa qarqara gammoojjii qubatan.
And marching from Socoth they encamped in Etham in the utmost coasts of the wilderness.
21 Waaqayyo akka isaan halkanii guyyaa deemuu dandaʼaniif guyyaa utubaa duumessaatiin isaan dura deemee karaa isaan argisiise; halkan immoo isaaniif ibsuuf jedhee utubaa ibiddaatiin isaan dura deemaa ture.
And the Lord went before them to shew the way by day in a pillar of a cloud, and by night in a pillar of fire: that he might be the guide of their journey at both times.
22 Utubaan duumessaa guyyaa guyyaa, utubaan ibiddaa immoo halkan halkan uummata duraa hin dhabamne ture.
There never failed the pillar of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, before the people.
