< Exodus 13 >
And Jehovah speaketh 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 to Me every first-born, opening any womb among the sons of Israel, among man and among 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 saith unto the people, 'Remember this day [in] which ye have gone out from Egypt, from the house of servants, for by strength of hand hath Jehovah brought you out from this, and any thing fermented is not eaten;
4 Òní, ní oṣù Abibu (oṣù kẹta ọdún tiwa) lónìí ẹ̀yin ń jáde kúrò ní Ejibiti.
To-day ye are going 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 hath been, when Jehovah bringeth thee in unto the land of the Canaanite, and of the Hittite, and of the Amorite, and of the Hivite, and of the Jebusite, which He hath sworn to thy fathers to give to thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou hast done 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 thou dost eat unleavened things, and in the seventh day [is] a feast to Jehovah;
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 things are eaten the seven days, and any thing fermented is not seen with thee; yea, leaven is not seen with thee in all thy border.
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 hast declared to thy son in that day, saying, '[It is] because of what Jehovah did to me, in my going out from 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 hath been to thee for a sign on thy hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, so that the law of Jehovah is in thy mouth, for by a strong hand hath Jehovah brought thee out from Egypt;
10 Ìwọ gbọdọ̀ pa òfin náà mọ́ ní àkókò tí a yàn bí ọdún tí ń gorí ọdún.
and thou hast kept this statute at its appointed season from days to days.
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 hath been, when Jehovah bringeth thee in unto the land of the Canaanite, as He hath sworn to thee and to thy fathers, and hath given 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 hast caused every one opening a womb to pass over to Jehovah, and every firstling — the increase of beasts which thou hast: the males [are] Jehovah's.
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 thou dost ransom with a lamb, and if thou dost not ransom [it], then thou hast beheaded it: and every first-born of man among thy sons thou dost ransom.
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 hath been, when thy son asketh thee hereafter, saying, What [is] this? that thou hast said unto him, By strength of hand hath Jehovah brought us out from Egypt, from a house of servants;
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.’
yea, it cometh to pass, when Pharaoh hath been pained to send us away, that Jehovah doth slay every first-born in the land of Egypt, from the first-born of man even unto the first-born of beast; therefore I am sacrificing to Jehovah all opening a womb who [are] males, and every first-born of my sons I ransom;
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 hath been for a token on thy hand, and for frontlets between thine eyes, for by strength of hand hath Jehovah brought us 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 cometh to pass in Pharaoh's sending the people away, that God hath not led them the way of the land of the Philistines, for it [is] near; for God said, 'Lest the people repent in their seeing war, and have turned back towards 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.
and God turneth round the people the way of the wilderness of the Red Sea, and by fifties have the sons of Israel gone up from 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 taketh the bones of Joseph with him, for he certainly caused the sons of Israel to swear, saying, 'God doth certainly inspect you, and ye have brought up my bones from this with you.'
20 Wọ́n sì mú ọ̀nà wọn pọ̀n láti Sukkoti lọ, wọ́n sì pàgọ́ sí Etamu ní etí aginjù.
And they journey from Succoth, and encamp in Etham at the extremity 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 Jehovah is going before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them in the way, and by night in a pillar of fire, to give light to them, to 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 removeth not the pillar of the cloud by day, and the pillar of the fire by night, [from] before the people.
