< Baʼuu 13 >

1 Waaqayyo Museedhaan akkana jedhe;
And Yahweh spake unto Moses, saying:
2 “Dhiira hangafa hunda addaan naa baasi; Israaʼeloota keessaa namas taʼu horiin hangafni gadameessa banu kam iyyuu kan koo ti.”
Hallow to me every firstborn, that which any female first beareth among the sons of Israel, among men and among beasts, —mine! it is.
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 unto the people—[Ye are] to remember this day, on which ye came forth out of Egypt out of the house of slaves, that with strength of hand, did Yahweh bring you forth from hence, —there shall not, therefore be eaten anything leavened.
4 Isin jiʼa Abiibii keessa guyyaa harʼaa baatan.
To-day, are, ye, coming forth, —in the month Abib.
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 it shall be, when Yahweh shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Amorite, and the Hivite and the Jebusite, which he sware to thy fathers to give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, then shalt thou serve with this service, in this month.
6 ati bultii torba Maxinoo nyaatta; guyyaa torbaffaatti immoo ayyaana Waaqayyoo taʼa.
Seven days, shalt thou eat unleavened cakes, —and on the seventh day, [shall be] a festival to Yahweh.
7 Guyyaa torban sana Maxinoo nyaadhu; wanni raacitii qabu tokko iyyuu si biratti hin argamin; daangaa kee hunda keessattis raacitiin hin argamin.
Unleavened cakes, shall be eaten for the seven days, —neither shall there be seen with thee anything leavened, nor shall there be seen with thee leaven, within any of thy bounds,
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, on that day, saying, —[This is] because, of that which Yahweh did for me, when he brought me 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 to thee for a sign upon thy hand and for a memorial between thine eyes, in order that the law of Yahweh may be in thy mouth, —for with a strong hand, did Yahweh bring thee forth out of Egypt.
10 Atis sirna kana wagguma waggaan yeroo isaatti eeguu qabda.
So shalt thou observe this statute in its appointed time, —from year to year.
11 “Yommuu Waaqayyo akkuma siʼii fi abbootii keetiif kakuudhaan waadaa gale sanatti biyya Kanaʼaanotaatti si galchee biyyattii siif kennutti,
And it shall be when Yahweh shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanite, as he sware to thee and to thy fathers, —and shalt give it thee,
12 ati hangafa gadameessa banu hunda Waaqayyoof kennita. Kormi horii keetii hangafni hundinuus kan Waaqayyoo ti.
that thou shalt set apart whatsoever is born first, to Yahweh; and, of all firstlings of beasts which thou shalt have, the males, shall pertain to Yahweh.
13 Harree hangafa kam iyyuu ilmoo hoolaatiin furi; yoo furuu baatte garuu morma isaa cabsi. Ilmaan kee keessaas hangafa kam iyyuu furi.
But every firstling of an ass, shalt thou redeem with a lamb or if thou wilt not redeem it, then thou shalt break its neck, —but every firstborn of men among thy sons, shalt thou redeem.
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 it shall be when thy son shall ask thee in time to come, saying, What is this? Then shalt thou say unto him: With strength of hand, did Yahweh bring us forth out of Egypt out of the house of slaves.
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.’
And it came to pass when Pharaoh had shown himself too hardened to let us go, then did Yahweh slay every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of men even unto the firstborn of beasts. For this cause, am, I, sacrificing to Yahweh whatsoever is born first, of the males, and every firstborn of my sons, must 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 for a sign upon thy hand, and for frontlets between thine eyes, —that, with strength of hand, did Yahweh bring us forth out of Egypt.
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 it came to pass when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God did not lead by the land-way of the Philistines, although it was near, —for God said—Lest the people be dismayed when they see war and turn back to Egypt.
18 Kanaafuu Waaqni karaa naannoo gammoojjiitiin gara Galaana Diimaatti saba sana qajeelche. Israaʼeloonnis waraanaaf qophaaʼanii biyya Gibxiitii baʼan.
So God took the people round the desert-way of the Red Sea, —and the sons 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 the bones of Joseph, with him, —for he had, taken an oath, of the sons of Israel saying, God will, surely visit, you, so then ye shall carry up my bones from hence with you.
20 Isaanis Sukootii kaʼanii Eetaam keessa qarqara gammoojjii qubatan.
And they brake up from Succoth, —and encamped in Etham, at the edge of the desert.
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.
Now, Yahweh, was going 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 journey day and night:
22 Utubaan duumessaa guyyaa guyyaa, utubaan ibiddaa immoo halkan halkan uummata duraa hin dhabamne ture.
the pillar of cloud by day ceased not, nor the pillar of fire by night, —from before the people.
