< Exodus 13 >

1 Olúwa sọ fún Mose pé,
And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
2 “Ẹ ya àwọn àkọ́bí yín ọkùnrin sọ́tọ̀ fún mi. Èyí ti ó bá jẹ́ àkọ́bí láàrín àwọn ọmọ Israẹli jẹ́ tèmi, ìbá à ṣe ènìyàn tàbí ẹranko.”
Sanctify unto me all the first-born, whatsoever openeth the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and of beast: it is mine.
3 Nígbà náà ni Mose sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn náà pé, “Ẹ rántí ọjọ́ òní, ọjọ́ ti ẹ jáde kúrò ni ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, kúrò ní ilẹ̀ tí ẹ̀yin ti ń ṣe ẹrú, nítorí Olúwa mú un yín jáde kúrò ni inú rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọwọ́ agbára. Ẹ má ṣe jẹ ohunkóhun tí ó ni ìwúkàrà nínú.
And Moses said unto the people, Remember this day, on which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of slavery; for by strength of hand the Lord brought you out from here: and no leavened bread shall be eaten.
4 Òní, ní oṣù Abibu (oṣù kẹta ọdún tiwa) lónìí ẹ̀yin ń jáde kúrò ní Ejibiti.
This day go ye out, in the month of Abib.
5 Ní ìgbà tí Olúwa mú un yín jáde wá sí ilẹ̀ Kenaani, Hiti, Amori, Hifi àti ilẹ̀ àwọn Jebusi; ilẹ̀ tí ó ti ṣe búra láti fi fún àwọn baba ńlá yín, ilẹ̀ tí ó ń sàn fún wàrà àti oyin, ẹ ni láti pa ìsìn yìí mọ́ ní oṣù yìí.
And it shall be, when the Lord doth bring thee into the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Emorites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, which he hath sworn unto thy fathers to give unto thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou shalt perform this service in this month.
6 Fún ọjọ́ méje ni ìwọ yóò fi jẹ àkàrà tí kò ní ìwúkàrà nínú àti pé ní ọjọ́ keje ni àjọ yóò wà fún Olúwa.
Seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day shall be a feast to the Lord.
7 Kí ẹ̀yin ó jẹ àkàrà tí kò ní ìwúkàrà fún ọjọ́ méje yìí; kó má ṣe sí ohunkóhun tí a fi ìwúkàrà ṣe ní sàkání yín.
Unleavened bread shall be eaten these seven days; and there shall not be seen with thee any leavened bread, neither shall there be seen with thee any leaven in all thy boundaries.
8 Ní ọjọ́ náà, ìwọ yóò sì sọ fún àwọn ọmọ rẹ ọkùnrin, ‘Mo ń ṣe èyí nítorí ohun tí Olúwa ṣe fún mi nígbà tí èmi jáde kúrò ni ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.’
And thou shalt tell thy son on that day, saying, This is done for the sake of that which the Lord did unto me when I came forth out of Egypt.
9 Ṣíṣe èyí yóò wà fún àmì ní ọwọ́ rẹ, àti bí àmì ìrántí ni iwájú orí rẹ, tí yóò máa rán ọ létí òfin Olúwa ní ẹnu rẹ. Nítorí Olúwa mú ọ jáde láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti pẹ̀lú ọwọ́ agbára ńlá rẹ̀.
And it shall be unto thee for a sign upon thy hand, and for a memorial between thy eyes, in order that the law of the Lord may be in thy mouth; for with a strong hand hath the Lord brought thee forth out of Egypt.
10 Ìwọ gbọdọ̀ pa òfin náà mọ́ ní àkókò tí a yàn bí ọdún tí ń gorí ọdún.
And thou shalt keep this ordinance in its season, from year to year.
11 “Lẹ́yìn tí Olúwa tí mú ọ wá sí ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Kenaani tí ó sì fi fún ọ gẹ́gẹ́ bí òun ti ṣe ìlérí pẹ̀lú ìbúra fún ọ àti fún àwọn baba ńlá rẹ̀,
And it shall be, when the Lord doth bring thee into the land of the Canaanites, as he hath sworn unto thee and to thy fathers, and giveth it to thee,
12 ìwọ yóò fi àkọ́bí inú rẹ fún Olúwa. Gbogbo àkọ́bí ti ó jẹ́ akọ ti ẹran ọ̀sìn rẹ ní ó jẹ́ ti Olúwa.
That thou shalt set apart all that openeth the womb unto the Lord; and every firstling that cometh of a beast which thou shalt have, the males, shall belong to the Lord.
13 Ìwọ yóò fi ọ̀dọ́-àgùntàn ra àkọ́bí kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ padà, ṣùgbọ́n bí ìwọ kò bá rà á padà, ǹjẹ́ kí ìwọ ṣẹ́ ẹ ní ọrùn, gbogbo àkọ́bí ọkùnrin ni kí ìwọ kí ó rà padà.
And every firstling of an ass shalt thou redeem with a lamb; and if thou wilt not redeem it, then shalt thou break its neck: and all the first-born of man among thy children shalt thou redeem.
14 “Yóò sí ṣe ní àwọn ọjọ́ tí ń bọ̀, ní ìgbà tí àwọn ọmọ yín yóò béèrè lọ́wọ́ yín, ‘Kí ni èyí túmọ̀ sí?’ Kí ìwọ kí ó sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Pẹ̀lú ọwọ́ agbára ní Olúwa fi mú wa jáde kúrò ni ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, kúrò ní oko ẹrú.
And it shall be, when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What is this? that thou shalt say unto him, By strength of hand the Lord brought us forth out of Egypt, out of the house of slavery;
15 Ní ìgbà ti Farao ṣe orí kunkun, ti ó kọ̀ láti jẹ́ kí a lọ, Olúwa pa gbogbo àwọn àkọ́bí ilẹ̀ Ejibiti, àti ènìyàn àti ẹranko. Ìdí èyí ni àwa fi ń fi gbogbo àkọ́bí tí í ṣe akọ rú ẹbọ sí Olúwa láti fi ṣe ìràpadà fún àwọn àkọ́bí wa ọkùnrin.’
And it came to pass, when Pharaoh obstinately refused to let us go, that the Lord slew all the first-born in the land of Egypt, both the first-born of man, and the first-born of beast; therefore do I sacrifice to the Lord all that openeth the womb, being males; but all the first-born of my children must I redeem.
16 Èyí yóò sì jẹ́ àmì ni ọwọ́ yín àti àmì ní iwájú orí yín pé Olúwa mú wa jáde láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá pẹ̀lú ọwọ́ agbára ńlá.”
And it shall be for a sign upon thy hand, and for frontlets between thy eyes; that by strength of hand the Lord brought us forth out of Egypt.
17 Ní ìgbà tí Farao jẹ́ kí àwọn ènìyàn ó lọ, Ọlọ́run kò mú wọn tọ ojú ọ̀nà ti ó la orílẹ̀-èdè àwọn Filistini kọjá, bí o tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé ọ̀nà náà kúrú. Nítorí Ọlọ́run sọ pé, “Bí wọ́n bá dojúkọ ogun, wọ́n lè yí ọkàn wọn padà kí wọ́n padà sí ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.”
And it came to pass, when Pharaoh let the people go, that God did not lead them the way through the land of the Philistines, because it was near; for God said, Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, and return to Egypt.
18 Nítorí náà Ọlọ́run darí àwọn ènìyàn rọkọ gba ọ̀nà aginjù ní apá Òkun Pupa. Àwọn ọmọ Israẹli jáde kúrò ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti pẹ̀lú ìmúra fún ogun.
But God led the people about, by the way of the wilderness to the Red Sea: and the children of Israel went up armed out of the land of Egypt.
19 Mose kó egungun Josẹfu pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ nítorí Josẹfu tí mú kí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli búra. Ó ti wí pé, “Dájúdájú Ọlọ́run yóò dìde fún ìrànlọ́wọ́ yín ẹ sì gbọdọ̀ kó egungun mi lọ pẹ̀lú yín kúrò níhìn-ín yìí.”
And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him; for he had caused the children of Israel to swear, saying, God will surely visit you, and ye shall then carry up my bones away hence with you.
20 Wọ́n sì mú ọ̀nà wọn pọ̀n láti Sukkoti lọ, wọ́n sì pàgọ́ sí Etamu ní etí aginjù.
And they took their journey from Succoth, and encamped in Etham, at the edge of the wilderness.
21 Olúwa sì ń lọ níwájú wọn, nínú ọ̀wọ̀n ìkùùkuu ní ọ̀sán láti máa ṣe amọ̀nà wọn àti ní òru nínú ọ̀wọ̀n iná láti máa tan ìmọ́lẹ̀ fún wọn, kí wọn lè máa lọ nínú ìrìnàjò wọn ní tọ̀sán tòru.
And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give light to them; that they might go by day and by night:
22 Ìkùùkuu náà kò kúrò ní ààyè rẹ̀ ní ọ̀sán, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, ọ̀wọ̀n iná kò kúrò ní ààyè rẹ̀ ni òru, ní iwájú àwọn ènìyàn náà.
He took not away the pillar of cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, from before the people.
