“Observe the month of new grain, at the beginning of springtime, so that you may accomplish the Passover to the Lord your God. For in this month, the Lord your God led you away from Egypt in the night.
2 Ẹ fi ẹran kan rú ẹbọ bí ìrékọjá sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín láti inú ọ̀wọ́ ẹran tàbí agbo màlúù yín ní ibi tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín yóò yàn bí ibùgbé fún orúkọ rẹ̀.
And you shall immolate the Passover to the Lord your God, from sheep and from oxen, in the place which the Lord your God will choose, so that his name may dwell there.
3 Ẹ má ṣe jẹ ẹ́ pẹ̀lú u àkàrà tí a fi ìwúkàrà ṣe, ṣùgbọ́n ọjọ́ méje ni kí ẹ fi jẹ àkàrà tí kò ní ìwúkàrà, àkàrà ìpọ́njú, nítorí pé pẹ̀lú ìkánjú ni ẹ kúrò ní Ejibiti: kí ẹ bá à lè rántí ìgbà tí ẹ kúrò ní Ejibiti ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ayé yín.
You shall not eat it with leavened bread. For seven days you shall eat, without leaven, the bread of affliction. For you departed from Egypt in fear. So may you remember the day of your departure from Egypt, throughout all the days of your life.
4 Kí a má sì ṣe rí àkàrà wíwú ní ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ nínú ilẹ̀ rẹ ní ijọ́ méje. Kí ìwọ má ṣe jẹ́ kí nǹkan kan ṣẹ́kù nínú ẹran tí ìwọ ó fi rú ẹbọ ní ìrọ̀lẹ́ ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní di àárọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì.
No leaven shall be present in all your confines for seven days. And by morning, there shall not remain any of the flesh which was immolated on the first day in the evening.
5 Ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ ṣe ìrékọjá náà ní ìlúkílùú kankan, tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín fi fún un yín
You cannot immolate the Passover in any of your cities, which the Lord your God will give to you, that you wish,
6 bí kò ṣe ibi tí yóò yàn gẹ́gẹ́ bí ibùgbé fún orúkọ rẹ̀, níbẹ̀ ni ki ẹ ti ṣe ìrúbọ ìrékọjá náà ní ìrọ̀lẹ́ nígbà tí oòrùn bá ń wọ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìrántí ìgbà tí ẹ kúrò ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
but only in the place which the Lord your God will choose, so that his name may dwell there. You shall immolate the Passover in the evening, upon the setting of the sun, which is the time when you departed from Egypt.
7 Ẹ sun ún kí ẹ sì jẹ ẹ́ ní ibi tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín yóò yàn. Ní àárọ̀, kí ẹ padà sí àgọ́ ọ yín.
And you shall cook and eat it in the place which the Lord your God will choose, and, rising up in the morning, you shall go into your tent.
8 Ọjọ́ mẹ́fà ní kí ẹ fi jẹ àkàrà aláìwú, ní ọjọ́ keje, ẹ pe àjọ kan fún Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, kí ẹ má sì ṣe iṣẹ́ kankan.
For six days, you shall eat unleavened bread. And on the seventh day, because it is the assembly of the Lord your God, you shall do no work.
9 Ka ọ̀sẹ̀ méje láti ìgbà tí ẹ bá ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí fi dòjé ṣe ìkórè ọkà.
You shall number for yourself seven weeks from that day, the day on which you put the sickle to the grain field.
10 Nígbà náà ni kí ẹ ṣe àjọ ọ̀sẹ̀ sí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín, nípa pípèsè ọrẹ àtinúwá, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìbùkún tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín fún un yín.
And you shall celebrate the Feast of Weeks, to the Lord your God, with a voluntary oblation from your hand, which you shall offer according to the blessing of the Lord your God.
11 Kí ẹ sì máa yọ̀ níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ní ibi tí yóò yàn ní ibùgbé fún orúkọ rẹ̀: ẹ̀yin, àwọn ọmọ yín ọkùnrin àti àwọn ọmọ yín obìnrin, àwọn ẹrú yín ọkùnrin àti àwọn ẹrú yín obìnrin, àwọn Lefi tí ó wà ní ìlú yín, àti àwọn àjèjì, àwọn aláìní baba, àti àwọn opó tí ń gbé àárín yín.
And you shall feast in the sight of the Lord your God: you, your son and your daughter, your man servant and your woman servant, and the Levite who is within your gates, and the new arrival as well as the orphan and the widow, who abide with you, in the place which the Lord your God will choose, so that his name may dwell there.
12 Ẹ rántí pé, ẹ ti jẹ́ ẹrú ní Ejibiti rí, nítorí náà ẹ tẹ̀lé àwọn ìlànà wọ̀nyí dáradára.
And you shall recall that you were a servant in Egypt. And you shall preserve and carry out the things that have been instructed.
13 Ẹ ṣe ayẹyẹ àgọ́ ìpàdé fún ọjọ́ méje lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ẹ bá ti kórè oko yín tí ẹ ti pakà tí ẹ sì ti fún ọtí tán.
Likewise, you shall celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles for seven days, when you will have gathered your fruits from the orchard and the winepress.
14 Ẹ máa yọ̀ ní àkókò àjọ̀dún un yín, ẹ̀yin, àwọn ọmọ yín ọkùnrin àti obìnrin, àwọn ẹrúkùnrin àti ẹrúbìnrin yín, àti àwọn Lefi, àwọn àjèjì, àwọn aláìní baba àti àwọn opó tí ń gbé ní àwọn ìlú u yín.
And you shall feast at the time of your festival: you, your son and daughter, your man servant and woman servant, likewise the Levite and the new arrival, the orphan and the widow, who are within your gates.
15 Ọjọ́ méje ni kí ẹ̀yin kí ó fi ṣe ayẹyẹ fún Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ní ibi tí Olúwa yóò yàn. Nítorí pé Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín yóò bùkún un yín ní gbogbo ìkórè e yín, àti ní gbogbo iṣẹ́ ọwọ́ yín, ayọ̀ ọ yín yóò sì kún.
For seven days you shall celebrate feasts to the Lord your God in the place which the Lord will choose. And the Lord your God will bless you in all your crops, and in every work of your hands. And you shall be joyful.
16 Ní ẹ̀ẹ̀mẹ́ta lọ́dún ni kí gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin rẹ kí ó farahàn níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀, ní ibi tí yóò yàn. Níbi àjọ àkàrà àìwú, níbi àjọ ọ̀sẹ̀, àti àjọ àgọ́ ìpàdé. Ẹnikẹ́ni kò gbọdọ̀ wá sí iwájú Olúwa ní ọwọ́ òfo.
Three times a year, all your males shall appear in the sight the Lord your God in the place which he will choose: at the Feast of Unleavened Bread, at the Feast of Weeks, and at the Feast of Tabernacles. No one shall appear before the Lord empty.
17 Kí olúkúlùkù ó mú ọrẹ wá bí agbára rẹ̀ ti tó, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìbùkún Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ tí ó fi fún un ọ̀.
But each one shall offer according to what he will have, according to the blessing of the Lord his God, which he will give to him.
18 Ẹ yan àwọn adájọ́ àti àwọn olóyè fún ẹ̀yà a yín kọ̀ọ̀kan, ní gbogbo ìlú tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín yóò fún un yín, wọ́n sì gbọdọ̀ máa fi òtítọ́ ṣe ìdájọ́ àwọn ènìyàn.
You shall appoint judges and magistrates at all your gates, which the Lord your God will give to you, throughout each of your tribes, so that they may judge the people with a just judgment,
19 Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ yí ìdájọ́ po, ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ ṣe ojúsàájú ènìyàn. Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ gba àbẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ nítorí pé àbẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ ń fọ́ ojú ọlọ́gbọ́n, ó sì ń ba ọ̀rọ̀ olódodo jẹ́.
and not so as to show favoritism to either side. You shall not accept a person’s reputation, nor gifts. For gifts blind the eyes of the wise and alter the words of the just.
20 Ẹ tẹ̀lé ìdájọ́ òtítọ́ àní ìdájọ́ òtítọ́ nìkan, kí ẹ bá à lè gbé kí ẹ sì gba ilẹ̀ tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín ń fún un yín.
You shall justly pursue what is just, so that you may live and possess the land, which the Lord your God will give to you.
21 Ẹ má ṣe ri ère òrìṣà Aṣerah sí ẹ̀gbẹ́ pẹpẹ tí ẹ ti mọ fún Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín.
You shall not plant a sacred grove, nor shall you plant any tree near the altar of the Lord your God;
22 Ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ gbé òkúta òrìṣà gbígbẹ́ kan kalẹ̀ fún ara yín, nítorí èyí ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run yín kórìíra.
you shall neither make nor set up for yourself a statue. These things the Lord your God hates.”
