Exodus 13

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Moses,

2 Sanctify unto me every firstborn that openeth the womb among the children of Israel, as well of men as of beasts: for they are all mine.

“Srela wounse mukul nukewa nu sik, tuh wounse mukul nutin mwet Israel ac wounse mukul nutin kosro ac fah ma nutik.”

3 And Moses said to the people: Remember this day in which you came forth out of Egypt, and out of the house of bondage, for with a strong hand hath the Lord brought you forth out of this place: that you eat no leavened bread.

Moses el fahk nu sin mwet uh, “Esam len se inge — len se ma kowos tuh illa liki facl Egypt, acn se ma kowos tuh mwet kohs we. Pa inge len se ma LEUM GOD El uskowosme ke ku lulap lal. Kowos fah tia mongo bread pulol ke len se inge.

4 This day you go forth in the month of new corn.

Kowos ac som liki Egypt ke len se inge ke malem se meet, malem in Abib.

5 And when the Lord shall have brought thee into the land of the Chanaanite, and the Hethite, and the Amorrhite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite, which he swore to thy fathers that he would give thee, a land that floweth with milk and honey, thou shalt celebrate this manner of sacred rites in this month.

LEUM GOD El oru sie wulela ku nu sin mwet matu lowos meet ah mu El ac sot acn sin mwet Canaan, mwet Hit, mwet Amor, mwet Hiv, ac mwet Jebus tuh in acn suwos. Ke El ac uskowosla nu in acn sac, sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we, kowos fah akfulatye len in kufwa se inge ke malem se meet in yac nukewa.

6 Seven days shalt thou eat unleavened bread: and on the seventh day shall be the solemnity of the Lord.

Ke len itkosr kowos fah mongo bread wangin mwe pulol kac, ac ke len se akitkosr kowos fah orek kufwa in akfulatye LEUM GOD.

7 Unleavened bread shall you eat seven days: there shall not be seen any thing leavened with thee, nor in all thy coasts.

Ke len itkosr kowos fah tia mongo bread ma orekla ke mwe pulol. Ac fah wangin mwe pulol ku bread pulol in kutena acn in facl suwos.

8 And thou shalt tell thy son in that day, saying: This is what the Lord did to me when I came forth out of Egypt.

Ke mutaweyen len in kufwa uh, kowos in aketeya nu sin wen nutuwos lah kowos oru ma inge nukewa ke sripen ma LEUM GOD El oru nu suwos ke kowos illa liki facl Egypt.

9 And it shall be as a sign in thy hand, and as a memorial before thy eyes: and that the law of the Lord be always in thy mouth, for with a strong hand the Lord hath brought thee out of the land of Egypt.

Len in kufwa se inge ac fah sie mwe esmakin, oana mwe esmakin ma kowos kapriya ke pouwos ku ke motonsruwos. Ac fah akesmakye kowos in kalwenina in fahkak ac luti Ma Sap lun LEUM GOD, mweyen LEUM GOD El uskowosme liki facl Egypt ke ku lulap lal.

10 Thou shalt keep this observance at the set time from days to days.

Kowos in oru na kufwa se inge ke pacl srisrsrisri nu kac ke kais sie yac.

11 And when the Lord shall have brought thee into the land of the Chanaanite, as he swore to thee and thy fathers, and shall give it thee:

“LEUM GOD El ac uskowosme nu in facl sin mwet Canaan, oana El tuh orek wulela ku kac nu suwos ac mwet matu lowos meet ah. Ke El ac sot facl sacn nu suwos,

12 Thou shalt set apart all that openeth the womb for the Lord, and all that is first brought forth of thy cattle: whatsoever thou shalt have of the male sex, thou shalt consecrate to the Lord.

kowos fah srela wounse mukul nukewa nutuwos nu sin LEUM GOD, oayapa wounse mukul nutin kosro nutuwos ac fah ma lun LEUM GOD.

13 The firstborn of an ass thou shalt change for a sheep: and if thou do not redeem it, thou shalt kill it. And every firstborn of men thou shalt redeem with a price.

Kais soko wounse mukul nutin donkey nutuwos an kowos ac moli ke soko sheep fusr. Kowos fin tia lungse moli, na koteya kwawal. Kowos enenu na in molela wounse mukul nukewa nutuwos uh.

14 And when thy son shall ask thee tomorrow, saying: What is this? thou shalt answer him: With a strong hand did the Lord bring us forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

In pacl fahsru uh, ke wen nutuwos ac siyuk suwos, ‘Mea kalmen ma inge?’ kowos fah topkolos mu, ‘LEUM GOD El tuh uskutme ke ku lulap lal liki facl Egypt, acn se ma kut tuh mwet kohs we.

15 For when Pharao was hardened, and would not let us go, the Lord slew every firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of man to the firstborn of beasts: therefore I sacrifice to the Lord all that openeth the womb of the male sex, and all the firstborn of my sons I redeem.

Ke pacl se tokosra lun acn Egypt el akupaye nankal ac tia filikutla in som, LEUM GOD El uniya wounse mukul nukewa nutin mwet Egypt, ac wounse mukul nukewa nutin kosro. Pa pwanang kut kisakin wounse mukul nutin kosro uh nu sin LEUM GOD, a kut molela wounse mukul natusr uh.

16 And it shall be as a sign in thy hand, and as a thing hung between thy eyes, for a remembrance: because the Lord hath brought us forth out of Egypt by a strong hand.

Ouiya se inge ac fah sie mwe esmakin, oana sie ma kapiryang nu ke pouwos ku nu ke motonsruwos. Ac fah mwe esmakin ke LEUM GOD El tuh uskutme liki Egypt ke ku lulap lal!’”

17 And when Pharao had sent out the people, the Lord led them not by the way of the land of the Philistines which is near: thinking lest perhaps they would repent, if they should see wars arise against them, and would return into Egypt.

Pacl se ke tokosra lun Egypt el fuhlela mwet uh in som, God El tia usalos ke inkanek soko ma ut weacn uh nu Philistia, finne pa fototo uh. God El fahk mu, “Nga tia lungse mwet uh in ekulla nunak lalos ac folok nu Egypt ke elos liye lah elos ac enenu in mweuni mwet lokoalok lalos.”

18 But he led them about by the way of the desert, which is by the Red Sea: and the children of Israel went up armed out of the land of Egypt.

Ouinge El kololos ke inkanek na loeloes in acn mwesis ma som nu Meoa Srusra. Ke mwet Israel elos illa liki Egypt elos us kufwen mweun natulos.

19 And Moses took Joseph’s bones with him: because he had adjured the children of Israel, saying: God shall visit you, carry out my bones from hence with you.

Moses el us srel Joseph welul, oana ke Joseph el tuh arulana wili nu sin mwet Israel ac fahk, “Pacl se God El ac uskowosla liki facl se inge, kowos fah us srik in wi kowos som.”

20 And marching from Socoth they encamped in Etham in the utmost coasts of the wilderness.

Mwet Israel som liki acn Sukkoth ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos in acn Etham, sisken yen mwesis.

21 And the Lord went before them to shew the way by day in a pillar of a cloud, and by night in a pillar of fire: that he might be the guide of their journey at both times.

Ke len, LEUM GOD El fahsr meet lukelos ke sie sru in pukunyeng in akkalemye nu selos acn elos ac ut we, ac ke fong uh El fahsr meet lukelos ke sie sru in e, in sang kalem nu selos. Ouinge elos ku in fahsr ke fong ac ke len.

22 There never failed the pillar of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, before the people.

Sru in pukunyeng uh fahsr meet lukelos pacl nukewa ke len, ac sru in e uh ke fong.
