1 Yahweh akasema na Musa na kumwambia,
And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
2 “Nitengee wazaliwa wote wa kwanza, kila mzaliwa wa kwanza wa Waisraeli, watu na wanyama. Mzaliwa wa kwanza ni wangu.”
Consecrate to me every firstborn [the] firstborn of every womb among [the] people of Israel among humankind and among the livestock [belongs] to me it.
3 Musa akawambia watu, “Hii kumbukeni hii siku, siku mliyo toka Misri, kutoka nyumba ya utumwa, kwa mkono hodari wa Yahweh amewatoa kutoka hii sehemu. Hakuna mkate wa hamira waruhusiwa kuliwa.
And he said Moses to the people remember the day this when you went out from Egypt from a house of slaves for with strength of hand he brought out Yahweh you from here and not it will be eaten leaven.
4 Mnatoka Misri hii siku, mwezi wa Abibu.
This day you [are] about to go out in [the] month of Abib.
5 Yahweh atakapo waleta nchi ya Wakanani, Wahiti, Waamori, Wahivi, na Wayebusi, nchi aliyo waapia mababu zenu kuwapa, nchi inayo tiririka kwa maziwa na asali - kisha wapaswa kuadhimisha hili tendo la ibada kila mwezi.
And it will be that he will bring you Yahweh into [the] land of the Canaanite[s] and the Hittite[s] and the Amorite[s] and the Hivite[s] and the Jebusite[s] which he swore to ancestors your to give to you a land flowing of milk and honey and you will serve the service this in the month this.
6 Kwa siku saba utakula mkate bila hamira; siku ya saba kutakuwa na maakuli ya kumuadhimisha Yahweh.
Seven days you will eat unleavened bread and [will be] on the day seventh a festival of Yahweh.
7 Mkate usio na hamira wapaswa kuliwa kwa siku saba zote; hakuna mkate ulio na hamira wapaswa kuliwa miongoni mwenu. Hakuna hamira yapaswa kuonekana kwenye mipaka yenu.
Unleavened bread it will be eaten [the] seven the days and not it will be seen by you leaven and not it will be seen by you leaven in all territory your.
8 Hiyo siku utasema kwa watoto wako, 'Hii ni kwasababu ya kile Yahweh alichofanya kwangu nilipo taka Misri.'
And you will tell to child your on the day that saying for sake of what he did Yahweh for me when came out I from Egypt.
9 Hii itakuwa kumbukumbu mkononi mwako, na kumbukumbu kwenye paji la uso wako. Hii ni ili sheria ya Yahweh iwe kinywani mwako, maana kwa mkono hodari Yahweh amewatoa kutoka Misri.
And it will become for you a sign on hand your and a reminder between eyes your so that may be [the] law of Yahweh in mouth your for by a hand strong he brought out you Yahweh from Egypt.
10 Kisha basi wapaswa kushika hii sheria kwa wakati uliyo kusudiwa kutoka mwaka hadi mwaka.
And you will keep the statute this to appointed time its from days days towards.
11 Yahweh atakapo waleta kwenye nchi ya Wakanani, kama alivyo apa kwenu na kwa mababu zenu kufanya, na atakapo wapa nchi ninyi,
And it will be that he will bring you Yahweh into [the] land of the Canaanite[s] just as he swore to you and to ancestors your and he will give it to you.
12 lazima umtengee mzaliwa wa kwanza mtoto na uzao wa kwanza wa wanyama wenu. Wakiume watakuwa wa Yahweh.
And you will dedicate every firstborn of a womb to Yahweh and every firstborn of - [the] offspring of cattle which it will be[long] to you the males [will belong] to Yahweh.
13 Kila mzaliwa wa kwanza wa punda lazima umnunue tena na mwana kondoo. Kama hautamnunua tena, lazima uivunje shingo yake. Lakini kila mzaliwa wa kwanza wakiume miongoni mwenu - lazima umnunue tena.
And every firstborn of a donkey you will redeem with a sheep and if not you will redeem [it] and you will break neck its and every firstborn of humankind among sons your you will redeem.
14 Mwanae atakapo kuuliza baadae, 'Hii ina maana gani?' kisha utamwambia, 'Ni kwa mkono hodari Yahweh katutoa Misri, kutoka nyumba ya utumwa.
And it will be that he will ask you son your in future time saying what? [is] this and you will say to him with strength of hand he brought out us Yahweh from Egypt from a house of slaves.
15 Farao alipo kataa kwa ujeuri kutuachia twende, Yahweh aliwaua wazaliwa wa kwanza wa nchi ya Misri, wazaliwa wa kwanza wa watu na wa wanyama. Ndio sababu ninatoa dhabihu kwa Yahweh kwa kila mzaliwa wa kwanza wa kila mnyama, na pia sababu nina nunua wazaliwa wa kwanza wa wanangu tena.'
And it was that he made stubborn Pharaoh to let go us and he killed Yahweh every firstborn in [the] land of Egypt from [the] firstborn of humankind and unto [the] firstborn of livestock there-fore I [am] sacrificing to Yahweh every firstborn of a womb the males and every firstborn of sons my I redeem.
16 Hii itakuwa kumbukumbu mikononi mwako na kumbukumbu kwenye paji lako la uso, kwa kuwa ni kwa mkono hodari Yahweh alitutoa kutoka Misri.”
And it will become a sign on hand your and marks between eyes your for with strength of hand he brought out us Yahweh from Egypt.
17 Farao alipo waachia watu waende, Mungu akuwaongoza kwa njia ya Wafilisti, japo hiyo njia ilikuwa karibu. Kwa kuwa Mungu alisema, “Labda watu watabadili nia zao watakapo ona vita na watarudi Misri.”
And it was when let go Pharaoh the people and not he led them God [the] way of [the] land of [the] Philistines for [was] near it for - he said God lest it should regret the people when see they battle and they will return Egypt towards.
18 Hivyo Mungu akawaongoza watu kuzunguka nyikani kupita Bahari ya Shamu. Waisraeli waliondoka kutoka nchi ya Misri wakiwa wamejiami kwa pambano.
And he caused to go around God - the people [the] way of the wilderness [the] sea of reed[s] and arrayed for battle they went up [the] people of Israel from [the] land of Egypt.
19 Musa akachukuwa mifupa ya Yusufu pamoja naye, kwa kuwa Yusufu aliwaapisha Waisraeli na kusema, “Mungu atawaokoa, na muibebe mifupa yangu na nyie.”
And he took Moses [the] bones of Joseph with him for certainly he had made swear [the] people of Israel saying certainly he will visit God you and you will take up bones my from here with you.
20 Waisraeli walisafiri kutoka Sakothi na kuweka kambi Ethamu pembezoni mwa nyikani.
And they set out from Succoth and they encamped at Etham on [the] edge of the wilderness.
21 Yahweh alitangulia mbele yao mchana kama nguzo ya wingu kuwaongoza njiani. Usiku alienda kama nguzo ya moto kuwapa mwanga. Kwa namna hii waliweza kusafiri mchana na usiku.
And Yahweh [was] going before them by day in a pillar of cloud to guide them the journey and night in a pillar of fire to give light to them to go by day and night.
22 Yahweh hakuchukuwa kutoka kwa watu nguzo ya wingu mchana wala nguzo ya moto usiku.
Not it departed [the] pillar of cloud by day and [the] pillar of fire night before the people.
