< ʻEkisotosi 12 >

1 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻo pehē,
And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt:
2 “Ko e māhina ni ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ko e kamataʻanga ʻoe ngaahi māhina: ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ia ko e ʻuluaki māhina ʻi he taʻu.”
This month shall be to you the beginning of months: it shall be the first in the months of the year.
3 Mo lea ki he kakai fakataha kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “ʻI hono hongofulu ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe māhina ni, te nau toʻo kiate kinautolu taki taha ʻe he tangata ha lami, ʻo fakatatau ki he fale ʻoe ngaahi tamai, ko e lami ki he fale:
Speak ye to the whole assembly of the children of Israel, and say to them: On the tenth day of this month let every man take a lamb by their families and houses.
4 Pea kapau ʻoku tokosiʻi ʻae kau nofoʻanga ki ha lami, ke toʻo ia ʻe ia mo hono kaungāʻapi ʻoku na fale vāofi ʻo fakatatau ki hono lau ʻoe kakai; ko e tangata kotoa pē ʻe kau ia ʻo fakatatau mo ʻene kai ʻi homou lau ki he lami.
But if the number be less than may suffice to eat the lamb, he shall take unto him his neighbour that joineth to his house, according to the number of souls which may be enough to eat the lamb.
5 ‌ʻE haohaoa ʻa hoʻomou lami taʻehanomele, ko e manu tangata ʻi hono ʻuluaki taʻu: te mou toʻo ia mei he fanga sipi, pe mei he fanga kosi.
And it shall be a lamb without blemish, a male, of one year: according to which rite also you shall take a kid.
6 Pea te mou talitalifaki ʻaki ia ʻo aʻu ki hono hongofulu ma fā ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe māhina ko ia: pea ʻe tāmateʻi ia ʻe he fakataha kotoa pē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he efiafi poʻuli.
And you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month: and the whole multitude of the children of Israel shall sacrifice it in the evening.
7 Pea te nau ʻave ʻa hono toto ʻo vali ʻaki ia ʻae pou ʻe ua, mo e ʻakau fakalava ʻi he ʻulu matapā ʻoe ngaahi fale ʻoku nau kai ai ia.
And they shall take of the blood thereof, and put it upon both the side posts, and on the upper door posts of the houses, wherein they shall eat it.
8 Pea te nau kai hono kakano ʻi he pō ko ia, kuo tunu ʻaki ʻae afi, mo e mā taʻefakalēvani; te nau kai ia mo e ngaahi louʻakau kona.
And they shall eat the flesh that night roasted at the fire, and unleavened bread with wild lettuce.
9 ‌ʻOua naʻa kai ʻota ia, pe haka ʻi he vai, ka ko e tunu pe ʻaki ʻae afi: ko hono ʻulu, mo e kau vaʻe, mo hono toʻotoʻonga.
You shall not eat thereof any thing raw, nor boiled in water, but only roasted at the fire: you shall eat the head with the feet and entrails thereof.
10 Pea ʻoua naʻa fakatoe hano potu ki he ʻapongipongi; pea ko ia ʻoku toe ki he ʻapongipongi te mou tutu ʻaki ʻae afi.
Neither shall there remain any thing of it until morning. If there be any thing left, you shall burn it with fire.
11 Pea te mou kai pehē ia; kuo nonoʻo homou vala, kuo ʻai homou topuvaʻe ʻi homou vaʻe, mo homou tokotoko ʻi homou nima; pea te mou kai fakatoʻotoʻo ia; ko e Lakaatu ia ʻa Sihova.
And thus you shall eat it: you shall gird your reins, and you shall have shoes on your feet, holding staves in your hands, and you shall eat in haste: for it is the Phase (that is the Passage) of the Lord.
12 “He te u ʻalu ʻo ʻasi ʻi he fonua ʻo ʻIsipite he poōni, pea te u taaʻi ʻae ʻuluaki fānau kotoa pē ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻae tangata mo e manu; pea ko e ngaahi ʻotua ʻo ʻIsipite te u fai ʻeku fakaʻauha ki ai: Ko au ko Sihova.
And I will pass through the land of Egypt that night, and will kill every firstborn in the land of Egypt both man and beast: and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am the Lord.
13 Pea ko e toto, ʻe hoko ko e fakaʻilonga ia kiate kimoutolu ʻi he ngaahi fale ʻoku mou ʻi ai: ʻo kau ka mamata ki he toto, teu laka atu ʻiate kimoutolu, pea ʻe ʻikai ha fakaʻauha kiate kimoutolu ke mou mate ai ʻo kau ka taaʻi ʻae fonua ko ʻIsipite.
And the blood shall be unto you for a sign in the houses where you shall be: and I shall see the blood, and shall pass over you: and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I shall strike the land of Egypt.
14 Pea ko e ʻaho ni ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ke fakamanatu: pea te mou tauhi ia ʻo fai ʻae kātoanga kia Sihova ʻi homou ngaahi toʻutangata tuku fakaholo: te mou tauhi ia ko e kātoanga ʻi he tuʻutuʻuni taʻengata.”
And this day shall be for a memorial to you: and you shall keep it a feast to the Lord in your generations with an everlasting observance.
15 “Ko e ʻaho ʻe fitu te mou kai mā taʻefakalēvani; ʻio, ʻi hono ʻuluaki ʻaho te mou tukuange ʻae lēvani mei homou ngaahi fale: he ko ia ʻoku kai ha mā kuo fakalēvani mei he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻo aʻu ki hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho, ʻe motuhi ia mei ʻIsileli.
Seven days shall you eat unleavened bread: in the first day there shall be no leaven in your houses: whosoever shall eat any thing leavened, from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall perish out of Israel.
16 Pea ʻe fai ʻi he ʻuluaki ʻaho ʻae fakataha māʻoniʻoni, pea ʻe fai ʻekimoutolu ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho ʻae fakataha māʻoniʻoni: ʻe ʻikai ha ngāue ʻe taha ʻe fai ʻi ai, ka koeʻuhi ko e kai ʻe he tangata kotoa pē, ko ia pe ʻe ngofua ke fai.
The first day shall be holy and solemn, and the seventh day shall be kept with the like solemnity: you shall do no work in them, except those things that belong to eating.
17 Pea te mou tokanga ki he kātoanga ʻoe mā taʻefakalēvani; koeʻuhi ʻi he ʻaho totonu ko ʻeni, kuo u ʻomi ai homou ngaahi kautau mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite: ko ia te mou fakaʻilongaʻi ʻae ʻaho ni ʻi homou toʻutangata kotoa pē ʻi he tuʻutuʻuni taʻengata.
And you shall observe the feast of the unleavened bread: for in this same day I will bring forth your army out of the land of Egypt, and you shall keep this day in your generations by a perpetual observance.
18 ʻI he ʻuluaki māhina, ʻi hono hongofulu ma fā ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe māhina, ʻi he efiafi, te mou kai ʻae mā taʻefakalēvani, ʻo aʻu ki hono uofulu ma taha ʻoe ʻaho ʻoe māhina ʻi he efiafi.
The first month, the fourteenth day of the month in the evening, you shall eat unleavened bread, until the one and twentieth day of the same month in the evening.
19 ‌ʻI he ʻaho ʻe fitu ʻe ʻikai ʻilo ha lēvani ʻi homou ngaahi fale; he ko ia ʻoku kai ʻaia kuo fakalēvani, ʻe motuhi ia mei he fakataha ʻo ʻIsileli, pe ko ha muli ia, pe ko ha tupu ʻi he fonua.
Seven days there shall not be found any leaven in your houses: he that shall eat leavened bread, his soul shall perish out of the assembly of Israel, whether he be a stranger or born in the land.
20 ‌ʻE ʻikai te mou kai ha meʻa kuo ʻi ai ʻae lēvani; ʻi homou ngaahi nofoʻanga kotoa pē te mou kai mā taʻefakalēvani.
You shall not eat any thing leavened: in all your habitations you shall eat unleavened bread.
21 Pea naʻe toki fekau ʻe Mōsese ke haʻu ʻae kau mātuʻa kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Vaheʻi ʻo toʻo kiate kimoutolu ʻae lami ʻo fakatatau ki homou ngaahi kau nofoʻanga ʻo tāmateʻi ʻae Lakaatu.
And Moses called all the ancients of the children of Israel, and said to them: Go take a lamb by your families, and sacrifice the Phase.
22 Pea te mou toʻo ʻae ʻū ʻisope ʻo unu ia ki he toto ʻoku ʻi he ipu, ʻo vali ʻae potu fakalava mo e pou ʻe ua ʻoe matapā ʻaki ʻae toto ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he ipu; pea ʻe ʻikai ʻalu ha tokotaha ʻi he matapā ʻo hono fale kituaʻā kaeʻoua ke pongipongi hake.
And dip a bunch of hyssop in the blood that is at the door, and sprinkle the transom of the door therewith, and both the door cheeks: let none of you go out of the door of his house till morning.
23 Koeʻuhi ʻe hāʻele atu ʻa Sihova ke taaʻi ʻae kakai ʻIsipite: pea ka ʻafio ia ki he toto ʻi he potu fakalava mo e pou ʻe ua, ʻe Lakaatu ʻa Sihova ʻi he matapā, pea ʻe ʻikai te ne tuku ʻae fakaʻauha ke hū ki homou fale ke taaʻi ʻakimoutolu.
For the Lord will pass through striking the Egyptians: and when he shall see the blood on the transom, and on both the posts, he will pass over the door of the house, and not suffer the destroyer to come into your houses and to hurt you.
24 Pea te mou tokanga maʻu ki he meʻa ni, ko e fekau kiate koe mo ho ngaahi foha ʻo taʻengata.
Thou shalt keep this thing as a law for thee and thy children for ever.
25 Pea ʻe pehē, ʻoka mou ka hoko atu ki he fonua ʻaia ʻe foaki ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu, ʻo hangē ko ʻene talaʻofa, te mou fai ʻae ngāue ni.
And when you have entered into the land which the Lord will give you as he hath promised, you shall observe these ceremonies.
26 Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka fehuʻi hoʻomou fānau kiate kimoutolu, ‘Ko e hā hono ʻuhinga ʻoe ngāue ni?’
And when your children shall say to you: What is the meaning of this service?
27 Te mou pehē: ‘Ko e feilaulau ia ʻoe Lakaatu ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne laka atu ʻi he ngaahi fale ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi ʻIsipite, ʻi heʻene taaʻi ʻae kakai ʻIsipite, ʻo ne fakamoʻui homau fale. Pea naʻe fakapunou hifo honau ʻulu ʻe he kakai ʻo hū.
You shall say to them: It is the victim of the passage of the Lord, when he passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, striking the Egyptians, and saving our houses. And the people bowing themselves, adored.
28 Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻo fai ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese mo ʻElone, naʻe pehē ʻenau fai.
And the children of Israel going forth did as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron.
29 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene tuʻuapō, naʻe taaʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae ʻuluaki fānau kotoa pē ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, mei he ʻuluaki fānau ʻa Felo naʻe nofo ʻi he nofoʻanga fakatuʻi ʻo aʻu ki he ʻuluaki fānau ʻae pōpula ʻi he fale fakapōpula; pea mo e ʻuluaki tupu kotoa pē ʻoe fanga manu.
And it came to pass at midnight, the Lord slew every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharao, who sat on his throne, unto the firstborn of the captive woman that was in the prison, and all the firstborn of cattle.

And Pharao arose in the night, and all his servants, and all Egypt: for there was not a house wherein there lay not one dead.

And Pharao calling Moses and Aaron, in the night, said: Arise and go forth from among my people, you and the children of Israel: go, sacrifice to the Lord as you say.

And the children of Israel did as Moses had commanded: and they asked of the Egyptians vessels of silver and gold, and very much raiment.
