< Exodus 13 >

1 And the Lord said to Moses,
Chuin Pakaiyin Mose heng'a asei jin.
2 Let the first male child of every mother among the children of Israel be kept holy for me, even the first male birth among man or beast; for it is mine.
“Israel mite lah'a apeng lhamasa phot kaheng'a na katdoh ding ahi. Mihem hihen gancha hijong leh aboncha keija ahi,” ati.
3 And Moses said to the people, Let this day, on which you came out of Egypt, out of your prison-house, be kept for ever in memory; for by the strength of his hand the Lord has taken you out from this place; let no leavened bread be used.
“Mose'n mipiho heng'a asei jin, “Hiche nikho hi imatih chan'na gedoh jing uvin Egypt gamma nasoh chan nauva konna nahung kitoldoh nikhou chu ahiye. Tunin Pakaiyin abanthahat pan'nan nahin puidoh tauve.” (geldoh jing un, cholsolou changlhah jeng naneh ding'u ahi),” ati.
4 On this day, in the month Abib, you are going out.
“Hiche nikho hi phalbi matah hichu Abid nikhoa hi na boncha uva chamlhat tah'a na potdoh sohkei ding'u ahiye.”
5 And it will be that, when the Lord takes you into the land of the Canaanite and the Hittite and the Amorite and the Hivite and the Jebusite, the land which he made an oath to your fathers that he would give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, you will do this act of worship in this month.
“Pakaiyin nangho chan dia napu napateu heng'a akitepna Canaan gam mite, Hit mite, Amor mite, Hivi mite chule Jebus mite chenna (khoiju le bongnoi lonna gamsung'a nahin puilut teng uleh hiche lhasung'a chu nangman jong hiche chonna dan chu nabol ding ahi),” ati.
6 For seven days let your food be unleavened cakes; and on the seventh day there is to be a feast to the Lord.
“Ni sagi sung'a chol solou changlhah jeng naneh diu ahi. Ni sagi lhin ni teng le vang Pakai heng'a kut khat nabol diu ahi.”
7 Unleavened cakes are to be your food through all the seven days; let no leavened bread be seen among you, or any leaven, in any part of your land.
“Ni sagi sung'a cholsolou changlhah jeng bou naneh thei diu ahi. Tahbeh'in hiche nikho sagi sungse'a hi na gamsung kimvel'u aboncha koiman cholsosa changlhah kiti toh naum khom louhel diu ahi.”
8 And you will say to your son in that day, It is because of what the Lord did for me when I came out of Egypt.
“Ni sagi lhinni teng leh na chate hou heng'a na sei uva, ‘Egypt gamsung'a keima ka um laiya Pakaiyin hiche melchihna hi eibol peh ahiye,’ nati ding ahi.
9 And this will be for a sign to you on your hand and for a mark on your brow, so that the law of the Lord may be in your mouth: for with a strong hand the Lord took you out of Egypt.
“Hiche golvah nahi melchihna khat'a pang jing ding, chule namit jeng ajong hetjing na a pang ding, hiche kihilna hi na kamsung'a navop jing ding ahi: Pakaiyin nangma abanthahat pan'a Egypt gamsung'a kon'na nahin puidoh ahi,” ati.
10 So let this order be kept, at the right time, from year to year.
“Hijeh chun hiche golvahna hi kumseh'a ngai ngai ja bang'a na bol jing ding ahi.”
11 And when the Lord takes you into the land of Canaan, as he made his oath to you and to your fathers, and gives it to you,
“Hiche chonna dan hi Pakaiyin khanglui ja pat'a kitepna anei bang'a hichu aguilhun kahse'a nabol jom jing ding, nangman Canaan mite chenna nalhun teng leh nabol ding ahiye,” ati.
12 You are to put on one side for the Lord every mother's first male child, the first-fruit of her body, and the first young one of every beast; every male is holy to the Lord.
“Hijeh achu Israel sung'a konna pasal pengdoh masapen mihem hihen gancha hijong le Pakaiya dia napeh doh jing ding ahi, hichu Pakaiya ahi.”
13 And for the young of an ass you may give a lamb in payment, or if you will not make payment for it, its neck is to be broken; but for all the first sons among your children, let payment be made.
“Hiti achu sangan nou penglha masa chan chu kelngoi nouva nalhat ding, nalhat tah lou jong le sangan nou hochu angong chang na hekelep ding ahi. Chule na chapate lah'a apeng masa chan nale lhat doh cheh cheh ding ahi.”
14 And when your son says to you in time to come, What is the reason for this? say to him, By the strength of his hand the Lord took us out of Egypt, out of the prison-house:
“Chule khonung teng, nachapan thil umchan dol'a nahin doh ding, hiche ho jouse hi ipijeh pentah'a kibol ham?” Nangman hitia hi na donbut ding, “Egypt gam'a soh ichan lai uva Pakaiyin abanthahat pan'na mipi jouse leh gancha aboncha ehin puidoh uva ahiye,” na ti ding ahi, ati.
15 And when Pharaoh made his heart hard and would not let us go, the Lord sent death on all the first sons in Egypt, of man and of beast: and so every first male who comes to birth is offered to the Lord; but for all the first of my sons I give a price.
“Pharaoh ana lungtah lheh jing in ahile, Egypt gam'a konna ipotdoh diu chu ana phal tapon, ajonan Pakaiyin Egypt gamsung'a pasal peng masa jouse leh gancha jouse abonchan athat chaikeiye. Hijeh achu tuahi keiman Pakaiya dia kilhaina kasem ahin hibang'a chu keiman ka chapate lah'a peng masa pen chan chu lhatdohna kaneiji ahi.” tia na seipeh ding ahi,” ati.
16 And this will be for a sign on your hand and for a mark on your brow: for by the strength of his hand the Lord took us out of Egypt.
“Hiche chondan hi nakhut teni ahin, namit teni chule na nah lhong geija melchina thil'a navop jing ding ahiye. Hichu Pakaiyin abanthahat pan'na Egypt gam'a kon'na nahin puidoh het jing na ahi.”
17 Now after Pharaoh had let the people go, God did not take them through the land of the Philistines, though that was near: for God said, If the people see war, they may have a change of heart and go back to Egypt.
Ajonan Pharaoh vin Israel mite ahin soldoh tan ahile, gamtepna lamlhun'na naicha ahi vang chun, Pathen'in Philistine galbol hojih chun lampia ahinpui pouvin ahi. Pathen'in aseiye, “Kamite hon galtoh khata le alung heikhao vintin Egypt lam'a kile ding ahiuve,” ati.
18 But God took the people round by the waste land near the Red Sea: and the children of Israel went up in fighting order out of the land of Egypt.
Pathen'in amaho chu gamthip lah'a ahinpui leuvin, vadung san lammun chu ahin jon tauvin ahi. Israel mite chu galsat mibang in ahung kitol taovin ahi.
19 And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him, for Joseph had made the children of Israel take an oath, saying, God will certainly keep you in mind; and you are to take my bones away with you.
Mose'n jong Joseph gu-le chang ahin choijin, ajeh chu Joseph in hiche thulhah nahi ana neijin, hiti hin aseiye, “Pathen nangho kithopia hung jing ding ahi. Aman nangho nahin panpi teng ule, hiche kagu kachang hi nahin poh jing ding'u ahi,” ati.
20 Then they went on their journey from Succoth, and put up their tents in Etham at the edge of the waste land.
Israel miten Succoth mun ahida lha uvin gamthip lah Etham kiti mun ahung lhung tauvin hiche mun'na chun ngahmun akisem tauve.”
21 And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, guiding them on their way; and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light: so that they were able to go on day and night:
Pakaiyin amite chu malam'a alhon pijing in, “Sunteng meibol khompi bang in alhon pe uvin, jan teng meivah khompi bang in alhon pi jiuve.”
22 The pillar of cloud went ever before them by day, and the pillar of fire by night.
Pakaiyin amite dalha louvin mei-lhang meivah'in aum pi jing uve.
