اَلْخُرُوجُ 13

١ 1 وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

Then YHWH spoke to Moses, saying,

٢ 2 «قَدِّسْ لِي كُلَّ بِكْرٍ، كُلَّ فَاتِحِ رَحِمٍ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَمِنَ ٱلْبَهَائِمِ. إِنَّهُ لِي».

"Set apart to me all the firstborn. Whatever is first from the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and of animal; it is mine."

٣ 3 وَقَالَ مُوسَى لِلشَّعْبِ: «ٱذْكُرُوا هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمَ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ خَرَجْتُمْ مِنْ مِصْرَ مِنْ بَيْتِ ٱلْعُبُودِيَّةِ، فَإِنَّهُ بِيَدٍ قَوِيَّةٍ أَخْرَجَكُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ هُنَا. وَلَا يُؤْكَلُ خَمِيرٌ.

And Moses said to the people, "Remember this day in which you came out from Egypt, out of the house of slavery, for with a mighty hand YHWH brought you out from this place. No leavened bread shall be eaten.

٤ 4 اَلْيَوْمَ أَنْتُمْ خَارِجُونَ فِي شَهْرِ أَبِيبَ.

On this day, in the month of Abib, you are going out.

٥ 5 وَيَكُونُ مَتَى أَدْخَلَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ أَرْضَ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ وَٱلْحِثِّيِّينَ وَٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ وَٱلْحِوِّيِّينَ وَٱلْيَبُوسِيِّينَ ٱلَّتِي حَلَفَ لِآبَائِكَ أَنْ يُعْطِيَكَ، أَرْضًا تَفِيضُ لَبَنًا وَعَسَلًا، أَنَّكَ تَصْنَعُ هَذِهِ ٱلْخِدْمَةَ فِي هَذَا ٱلشَّهْرِ.

And it shall be, when YHWH brings you into the land of the Canaanite, and the Hethite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Girgashite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite, which he swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you must keep this ceremony in this month.

٦ 6 سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ تَأْكُلُ فَطِيرًا، وَفِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّابِعِ عِيدٌ لِلرَّبِّ.

Six days you are to eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day is a feast to YHWH.

٧ 7 فَطِيرٌ يُؤْكَلُ ٱلسَّبْعَةَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ، وَلَا يُرَى عِنْدَكَ مُخْتَمِرٌ، وَلَا يُرَى عِنْدَكَ خَمِيرٌ فِي جَمِيعِ تُخُومِكَ.

Unleavened bread is to be eaten throughout the seven days. Nothing leavened is to be seen among you, nor is any leaven to be seen among you in all your territory.

٨ 8 «وَتُخْبِرُ ٱبْنَكَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ قَائِلًا: مِنْ أَجْلِ مَا صَنَعَ إِلَيَّ ٱلرَّبُّ حِينَ أَخْرَجَنِي مِنْ مِصْرَ.

And you are to tell your son on that day, saying, 'It is because of what YHWH did for me when I came out of Egypt.'

٩ 9 وَيَكُونُ لَكَ عَلَامَةً عَلَى يَدِكَ، وَتَذْكَارًا بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْكَ، لِكَيْ تَكُونَ شَرِيعَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي فَمِكَ. لِأَنَّهُ بِيَدٍ قَوِيَّةٍ أَخْرَجَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ مِصْرَ.

And it shall be as a sign to you on your hand and as a reminder between your eyes, so that the law of YHWH may be in your mouth, for with a mighty hand YHWH brought you out of Egypt.

١٠ 10 فَتَحْفَظُ هَذِهِ ٱلْفَرِيضَةَ فِي وَقْتِهَا مِنْ سَنَةٍ إِلَى سَنَةٍ.

Therefore you are to keep this ordinance at its appointed time from year to year.

١١ 11 «وَيَكُونُ مَتَى أَدْخَلَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ أَرْضَ ٱلْكَنْعَانِيِّينَ كَمَا حَلَفَ لَكَ وَلِآبَائِكَ، وَأَعْطَاكَ إِيَّاهَا،

"And it shall be, when YHWH brings you into the land of the Canaanites, as he swore to you and to your fathers, and gives it to you,

١٢ 12 أَنَّكَ تُقَدِّمُ لِلرَّبِّ كُلَّ فَاتِحِ رَحِمٍ، وَكُلَّ بِكْرٍ مِنْ نِتَاجِ ٱلْبَهَائِمِ ٱلَّتِي تَكُونُ لَكَ. ٱلذُّكُورُ لِلرَّبِّ.

that you are to set apart to YHWH everything that is first from the womb. Every firstborn male animal belongs to YHWH.

١٣ 13 وَلَكِنَّ كُلَّ بِكْرِ حِمَارٍ تَفْدِيهِ بِشَاةٍ. وَإِنْ لَمْ تَفْدِهِ فَتَكْسِرُ عُنُقَهُ. وَكُلُّ بِكْرِ إِنْسَانٍ مِنْ أَوْلَادِكَ تَفْدِيهِ.

Every firstborn of a donkey you are to redeem with a lamb, but if you will not redeem it, then you must break its neck. And every firstborn of man among your sons you must redeem.

١٤ 14 «وَيَكُونُ مَتَى سَأَلَكَ ٱبْنُكَ غَدًا قَائِلًا: مَا هَذَا؟ تَقُولُ لَهُ: بِيَدٍ قَوِيَّةٍ أَخْرَجَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ مِصْرَ مِنْ بَيْتِ ٱلْعُبُودِيَّةِ.

And it shall be, when your son asks you in the future, saying, 'What is this?' then you are to tell him, 'With a mighty hand YHWH brought us out from Egypt, from the house of slavery.

١٥ 15 وَكَانَ لَمَّا تَقَسَّى فِرْعَوْنُ عَنْ إِطْلَاقِنَا أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَتَلَ كُلَّ بِكْرٍ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، مِنْ بِكْرِ ٱلنَّاسِ إِلَى بِكْرِ ٱلْبَهَائِمِ. لِذَلِكَ أَنَا أَذْبَحُ لِلرَّبِّ ٱلذُّكُورَ مِنْ كُلِّ فَاتِحِ رَحِمٍ، وَأَفْدِي كُلَّ بِكْرٍ مِنْ أَوْلَادِي.

And it happened, when Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us go, that YHWH killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of people and the firstborn of animals. This is why I am sacrificing to YHWH any male that is first from the womb of an animal, but all my firstborn sons I redeem.'

١٦ 16 فَيَكُونُ عَلَامَةً عَلَى يَدِكَ، وَعِصَابَةً بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْكَ. لِأَنَّهُ بِيَدٍ قَوِيَّةٍ أَخْرَجَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ مِصْرَ».

So it will be as a sign on your hand and at the front of a headband around your forehead, for with a mighty hand YHWH brought us out of Egypt."

١٧ 17 وَكَانَ لَمَّا أَطْلَقَ فِرْعَوْنُ ٱلشَّعْبَ أَنَّ ٱللهَ لَمْ يَهْدِهِمْ فِي طَرِيقِ أَرْضِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ مَعَ أَنَّهَا قَرِيبَةٌ، لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ قَالَ: «لِئَلَّا يَنْدَمَ ٱلشَّعْبُ إِذَا رَأَوْا حَرْبًا وَيَرْجِعُوا إِلَى مِصْرَ».

Then it came to pass when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God did not lead them by the way of the land of the Philistines, although that was nearby, for God said, "Lest the people change their minds when they see war and return to Egypt."

١٨ 18 فَأَدَارَ ٱللهُ ٱلشَّعْبَ فِي طَرِيقِ بَرِّيَّةِ بَحْرِ سُوفٍ. وَصَعِدَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ مُتَجَهِّزِينَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ.

So God led the people around by the way of the wilderness to the Red Sea. And the children of Israel went up from the land of Egypt prepared for battle.

١٩ 19 وَأَخَذَ مُوسَى عِظَامَ يُوسُفَ مَعَهُ، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ قَدِ ٱسْتَحْلَفَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ بِحَلْفٍ قَائِلًا: «إِنَّ ٱللهَ سَيَفْتَقِدُكُمْ فَتُصْعِدُونَ عِظَامِي مِنْ هُنَا مَعَكُمْ».

And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him, for he had made the children of Israel swear an oath, saying, "God will surely attend to you, and you are to carry my bones up with you from this place."

٢٠ 20 وَٱرْتَحَلُوا مِنْ سُكُّوتَ وَنَزَلُوا فِي إِيثَامَ فِي طَرَفِ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ.

Then they set out from Succoth and camped at Etham on the edge of the wilderness.

٢١ 21 وَكَانَ ٱلرَّبُّ يَسِيرُ أَمَامَهُمْ نَهَارًا فِي عَمُودِ سَحَابٍ لِيَهْدِيَهُمْ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ، وَلَيْلًا فِي عَمُودِ نَارٍ لِيُضِيءَ لَهُمْ. لِكَيْ يَمْشُوا نَهَارًا وَلَيْلًا.

And God went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead them on their way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day and by night.

٢٢ 22 لَمْ يَبْرَحْ عَمُودُ ٱلسَّحَابِ نَهَارًا وَعَمُودُ ٱلنَّارِ لَيْلًا مِنْ أَمَامِ ٱلشَّعْبِ.

He did not take away the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire at night from in front of the people.
