Exodus 13
1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
INkosi yasikhuluma kuMozisi isithi:
2 Sanctifie vnto me all the first borne: that is, euery one that first openeth the wombe among the children of Israel, as well of man as of beast: for it is mine.
Ngingcwelisela lonke izibulo, elivula loba yisiphi isizalo phakathi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli, elomuntu lelenyamazana, lingelami.
3 Then Moses sayd vnto the people, Remember this day in the which ye came out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage: for by a mightie hande the Lord brought you out from thence: therefore no leauened bread shall bee eaten.
UMozisi wasesithi ebantwini: Khumbulani lolusuku eliphume ngalo eGibhithe, endlini yobugqili; ngoba ngamandla esandla iNkosi ilikhuphile lapha. Njalo kakungadliwa isinkwa esilemvubelo.
4 This day come yee out in the moneth of Abib.
Ngalolusuku liyaphuma ngenyanga kaAbhibhi.
5 Now when the Lord hath brought thee into the land of the Canaanites, and Hittites, and Amorites, and Hiuites, and Iebusites (which he sware vnto thy fathers, that he woulde giue thee, a land flowing with milke and honie) then thou shalt keepe this seruice in this moneth.
Njalo kuzakuthi lapho iNkosi isikungenisile elizweni lamaKhanani lamaHethi lamaAmori lamaHivi lamaJebusi, afunga kuboyihlo ukukunika lona, ilizwe eligeleza uchago loluju, uzagcina linkonzo ngalinyanga.
6 Seuen dayes shalt thou eate vnleauened bread, and the seuenth day shall be the feast of the Lord.
Insuku eziyisikhombisa uzakudla izinkwa ezingelamvubelo, langosuku lwesikhombisa kuzakuba khona umkhosi eNkosini.
7 Vnleauened bread shall bee eaten seuen dayes, and there shall no leauened bread be seene with thee, nor yet leauen be seene with thee in all thy quarters.
Izinkwa ezingelamvubelo zizadliwa ngensuku eziyisikhombisa; njalo kakuyikubonwa kuwe okuvutshelweyo lemvubelo kayiyikubonwa kuwe kuwo wonke umngcele wakho.
8 And thou shalt shew thy sonne in that day, saying, This is done, because of that which the Lord did vnto me, when I came out of Egypt.
Njalo uzatshela indodana yakho ngalolosuku usithi: Ngenxa yalokho iNkosi eyakwenza kimi ekuphumeni kwami eGibhithe.
9 And it shalbe a signe vnto thee vpon thine hande, and for a remembrance betweene thine eyes, that the Lawe of the Lord may be in thy mouth: for by a strong hand the Lord brought thee out of Egypt.
Futhi kuzakuba kuwe luphawu phezu kwesandla sakho lesikhumbuzo phakathi laphakathi kwamehlo akho, ukuze umlayo weNkosi ube semlonyeni wakho; ngoba ngesandla esilamandla iNkosi ikukhuphile eGibhithe.
10 Keepe therefore this ordinance in his season appoynted from yeere to yeere.
Ngakho uzagcina lesisimiso ngesikhathi saso esimisiweyo iminyaka ngeminyaka.
11 And when the Lord shall bring thee into the lande of the Canaanites, as hee sware vnto thee and to thy fathers, and shall giue it thee,
Njalo kuzakuthi lapho iNkosi isikungenisile elizweni lamaKhanani, njengokufunga kwayo kuwe lakuboyihlo, isikunike lona,
12 Then thou shalt set apart vnto the Lord all that first openeth the wombe: also euery thing that first doeth open the wombe, and commeth forth of thy beast: the males shalbe the Lordes.
uzakwehlukanisela iNkosi konke okuvula isizalo; lalo lonke izibulo lomqegu wezifuyo olazo, amaduna azakuba ngaweNkosi.
13 But euery first foale of an asse, thou shalt redeeme with a lambe: and if thou redeeme him not, then thou shalt breake his necke: likewise all the first borne of man among thy sonnes shalt thou bye out.
Lalo lonke izibulo likababhemi uzalihlenga ngewundlu; kodwa uba ungalihlengi, uzalephula intamo; lalo lonke izibulo lomuntu phakathi kwamadodana akho uzalihlenga.
14 And when thy sonne shall aske thee to morowe, saying, What is this? thou shalt then say vnto him, With a mightie hande the Lord brought vs out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
Njalo kuzakuthi lapho indodana yakho ikubuza ngesikhathi esizayo isithi: Kuyini lokhu? Uzakuthi kuyo: Ngamandla esandla iNkosi yasikhupha eGibhithe, endlini yobugqili.
15 For when Pharaoh was harde hearted against our departing, the Lord then slewe all the first borne in the lande of Egypt: from the first borne of man euen to the first borne of beast: therefore I sacrifice vnto the Lord all the males that first open the wombe, but all the first borne of my sonnes I redeeme.
Ngoba kwathi uFaro ezenza lukhuni ukuthi asiyekele sihambe, iNkosi yabulala lonke izibulo elizweni leGibhithe, kusukela kuzibulo lomuntu kusiya kuzibulo lezifuyo; ngakho ngiyahlabela iNkosi konke okuvula isizalo okuduna; kodwa lonke izibulo lamadodana ami ngiyalihlenga.
16 And it shalbe as a token vpon thine hand, and as frontlets betweene thine eyes, that the Lord brought vs out of Egypt by a mightie hande.
Njalo kuzakuba luphawu phezu kwesandla sakho lamafilakteriyu phakathi laphakathi kwamehlo akho, ngoba ngamandla esandla iNkosi yasikhupha eGibhithe.
17 Nowe when Pharaoh had let the people go, God caried them not by the way of the Philistims countrey, though it were neerer: (for God sayd, Lest the people repent whe they see warre, and turne againe to Egypt)
Kwasekusithi uFaro eseyekele abantu bahambe, uNkulunkulu kabakhokhelanga ngendlela yelizwe lamaFilisti, lanxa yayiseduze; ngoba uNkulunkulu wathi: Hlezi abantu bazisole nxa bebona impi, babuyele eGibhithe.
18 But God made the people to go about by the way of the wildernesse of the red sea: and the children of Israel went vp armed out of the land of Egypt.
Kodwa uNkulunkulu wababhodisa abantu ngendlela yenkangala yoLwandle oluBomvu. Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebesenyuka besuka elizweni leGibhithe behlomile.
19 (And Moses tooke the bones of Ioseph with him: for he had made the children of Israel sweare, saying, God will surely visite you, and ye shall take my bones away hence with you)
UMozisi wasethatha amathambo kaJosefa wahamba lawo, ngoba wayebafungisile lokubafungisa abantwana bakoIsrayeli esithi: Isibili uNkulunkulu uzalihambela; futhi kalibokwenyusa lapha amathambo ami lihambe lawo.
20 So they tooke their iourney from Succoth, and camped in Etham in the edge of the wildernesse.
Basebesuka eSukothi, bamisa inkamba eEthama, ekucineni kwenkangala.
21 And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of a cloude to leade them the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to giue them light, that they might go both by day and by night.
INkosi yasihamba phambi kwabo emini ngensika yeyezi ukubakhokhela endleleni, lebusuku ngensika yomlilo ukubakhanyisela, ukuze bahambe emini lebusuku.
22 He tooke not away the pillar of ye cloude by day, nor the pillar of fire by night from before the people.
Kayiyisusanga insika yeyezi emini, lensika yomlilo ebusuku, phambi kwabantu.
