< Exodus 12 >

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,
Antan Moyiz ak Arawon te nan peyi Lejip la, Seyè a di yo:
2 This month [shall be] to you the beginning of months: it is the first to you among the months of the year.
-Se mwa sa a k'ap premye mwa pou nou nan lanne a. Se limenm k'ap anvan tout lòt mwa yo.
3 Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying, On the tenth of this month let them take each man a lamb according to the houses of their families, every man a lamb for his household.
Pale tout moun pèp Izrayèl la. Di yo: sou dizyèm jou mwa sa a, n'a pran yon ti mouton pou chak fanmi, tande byen wi, yon ti mouton pou chak kay.
4 And if they be few in a household, so that there are not enough for the lamb, he shall take with himself his neighbor that lives near to him, —as to the number of souls, every one according to that which suffices him shall make a reckoning for the lamb.
Si pa gen kont moun nan kay la pou manje tout ti mouton an, se pou yo mete tèt yo ansanm ak vwazinaj ki pi pre kay la. N'a kalkile kantite moun ki nesesè pou manje mouton an, sa chak moun ka manje.
5 It shall be to you a lamb unblemished, a male of a year old: you shall take it of the lambs and the kids.
Se pou ti bèt nou chwazi a yon timal ki gen ennan, epi ki pa gen ankenn enfimite, li te mèt mouton, li te mèt kabrit.
6 And it shall be kept by you till the fourteenth of this month, and all the multitude of the congregation of the children of Israel shall kill it toward evening.
N'a gade l' apa jouk sou katòzyèm jou mwa a. Jou sa a, nan aswè, tout moun Izrayèl yo va touye ti bèt la anvan li fin fè nwa.
7 And they shall take of the blood, and shall put it on the two door-posts, and on the lintel, in the houses in which soever they shall eat them.
N'a pran ti gout nan san bèt la, n'a pase l' sou de chanbrann pòt kay la ansanm ak sou travès lento pòt la, nan kay kote n'ap manje ti bèt la.
8 And they shall eat the flesh in this night roast with fire, and they shall eat unleavened [bread] with bitter herbs.
Menm nwit sa a, n'a boukannen vyann lan. Apre sa, n'a manje l' avèk pen ki fèt san ledven epi ak fèy lanman.
9 You shall not eat of it raw nor sodden in water, but only roast with fire, the head with the feet and the appurtenances.
Piga nou manje vyann lan ni manke kwit ni bouyi. Se boukannen pou nou boukannen l' tout ankè ak tout tonbe a.
10 Nothing shall be left of it till the morning, and a bone of it you shall not break; but that which is left of it till the morning you shall burn with fire.
Pa kite anyen pou denmen maten. Si rete rès, se pou nou boule l' nan dife.
11 And thus shall you eat it: your loins girded, and your sandals on your feet, and your staves in your hands, and you shall eat it in haste. It is a passover to the Lord.
Men ki jan pou nou ranje kò nou pou nou manje l': n'a mare ren nou, sapat nou nan pye nou, baton nou nan men nou. Se pou nou manje l' prese prese, paske se lè sa a Seyè a ap pase.
12 and I will go throughout the land of Egypt in that night, and will strike every firstborn in the land of Egypt both man and beast, and on all the gods of Egypt will I execute vengeance: I [am] the Lord.
Jou lannwit sa a, m'ap pase nan tout peyi Lejip la, m'ap touye tout premye pitit gason ak tout premye pitit bèt yo ki nan peyi a. M'ap regle tout bondye peyi Lejip yo. Se mwen menm ki Seyè a.
13 And the blood shall be for a sign to you on the houses in which you are, and I will see the blood, and will protect you, and there shall not be on you the plague of destruction, when I strike in the land of Egypt.
San nou pase sou pòt yo va make kay kote nou ye a. Lè m'a wè san an, m'a sote kay nou. Konsa, lè m'ap frape peyi Lejip la, chatiman an p'ap tonbe sou nou tou.
14 And this day shall be to you a memorial, and you shall keep it a feast to the Lord through all your generations; you shall keep it a feast for a perpetual ordinance.
Jou sa a, se yon jou pou nou pa janm bliye. Se pou nou fete l' tankou yon fèt pou Seyè a, chak lè lè a va rive. Se pou nou pase yon lwa pou nou toujou fete fèt sa a, nou menm ak tout pitit pitit nou yo.
15 Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, and from the first day you shall utterly remove leaven from your houses: whoever shall eat leaven, that soul shall be utterly destroyed from Israel, from the first day until the seventh day.
Pandan sèt jou, se pou nou manje pen ki fèt san ledven. Depi premye jou nan mwa a, n'a wete tout ledven anndan lakay nou, paske depi premye jou a, rive sou setyèm jou a, si yon moun gen malè manje pen ki gen ledven ladan l', se pou yo disparèt li nan mitan pèp Izrayèl la.
16 And the first day shall be called holy, and the seventh day shall be a holy convocation to you: you shall do no servile work on them, only as many things as will [necessarily] be done by every soul, this only shall be done by you.
Sou premye jou a ak sou setyèm jou a, n'a reyini pou nou lapriyè. Jou sa yo, nou p'ap fè ankenn travay. Manje ase n'a fè pou tout moun manje.
17 And you shall keep this commandment, for on this day will I bring out your force out of the land of Egypt; and you shall make this day a perpetual ordinance for you throughout your generations.
N'a toujou fete fèt pen san ledven an, paske se jou sa a mwen te fè tout lame moun nou yo soti kite peyi Lejip. N'a toujou fete fèt sa a, de pitit an pitit tankou yon lwa ki la pou tout tan.
18 Beginning the fourteenth day of the first month, you shall eat unleavened bread from evening, till the twenty-first day of the month, till evening.
Nan premye mwa a, depi katòzyèm jou a nan aswè rive jouk sou venteyenyèm jou a nan aswè tou, se pen san ledven pou nou manje.
19 Seven days leaven shall not be found in your houses; whoever shall eat anything leavened, that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, both among the occupiers of the land and the original inhabitants.
Pandan sèt jou sa yo, p'ap gen ledven lakay nou paske nenpòt moun ki va gen malè manje pen ki gen ledven, yo gen pou yo disparèt li nan mitan pèp Izrayèl la, kit se yon etranje, kit se yonn nan nou.
20 You shall eat nothing leavened, but in every habitation of your you shall eat unleavened bread.
Se pa pou nou manje pen ki gen ledven. Lakay nou, se pou tout moun manje pen san ledven.
21 And Moses called all the elders of the children of Israel, and said to them, Go away and take to yourselves a lamb according to your kindred, and kill the passover.
Moyiz rele tout chèf fanmi pèp Izrayèl la, li di yo: -Se pou chak moun al chache yon ti mouton osinon yon ti kabrit pou yo touye pou fèt delivrans lan pou fanmi nou.
22 And you shall take a bunch of hyssop, and having dipped it into some of the blood that is by the door, you shall touch the lintel, and [shall put it] upon both door-posts, even of the blood which is by the door; but you shall not go out every one from the door of his house till the morning.
Apre sa, n'a pran yon branch izòp, n'a tranpe l' nan kivèt ki gen san bèt la. N'a pase l' sou de chanbrann pòt la ak sou travès lento a. Apre sa, piga pesonn soti deyò lakay yo jouk li jou.
23 And the Lord shall pass by to strike the Egyptians, and shall see the blood upon the lintel, and upon both the door-posts; and the Lord shall pass by the door, and shall not suffer the destroyer to enter into your houses to strike [you].
Konsa, lè Seyè a va pase nan peyi Lejip la pou touye moun peyi Lejip yo, l'a wè san an sou chanbrann yo ak sou lento a, l'ap pase devan pòt la, li p'ap kite moun ki reskonsab pou touye a antre lakay nou pou touye nou.
24 And keep you this thing as an ordinance for yourself and for your children for ever.
N'a fè tout bagay sa yo sèvi tankou yon lwa ki la pou tout tan, ni pou nou ni pou pitit nou yo.
25 And if you should enter into the land, which the Lord shall give you, as he has spoken, keep this service.
Lè n'a antre nan peyi Seyè a pral ban nou an, jan l' te pwomèt la, se pou nou toujou fè seremoni sa a.
26 And it shall come to pass, if your sons say to you, What is this service?
Lè timoun nou yo va mande nou sa seremoni sa a vle di,
27 that you shall say to them, This passover is a sacrifice to the Lord, as he defended the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he struck the Egyptians, but delivered our houses.
n'a reponn yo: Se fèt Delivrans lan n'ap fete pou Seyè a, paske li te sote kay moun pèp Izrayèl yo nan peyi Lejip, lè li t'ap touye moun peyi Lejip yo. Konsa li pa t' fè nou anyen. Apre tout pawòl sa yo, tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo met ajenou, yo bese tèt yo atè pou adore Seyè a.
28 And the people bowed and worshipped. And the children of Israel departed and did as the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron, so did they.
Lèfini, yo leve, y' ale, yo fè tou sa Seyè a te bay Moyiz ak Arawon lòd fè a. Wi, yo fè tout bagay jan li te bay lòd la.
29 And it came to pass at midnight that the Lord struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharao that sat on the throne, to the firstborn of the captive-maid in the dungeon, and the firstborn of all cattle.
Nan mitan lannwit, Seyè a touye tout premye pitit gason moun peyi Lejip yo, depi premye pitit gason farawon an ki chita sou fotèy la, jouk premye pitit gason prizonye ki te nan kacho. Tout premye pitit bèt yo tou te mouri.
30 And Pharao rose up by night, and his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in all the land of Egypt, for there was not a house in which there was not one dead.
Jou lannwit sa a, farawon an leve, li menm, tout chèf li yo ansanm ak tout pèp peyi Lejip la. Yon gwo rèl pete toupatou nan peyi Lejip, paske pa t' gen yon kay ki pa t' gen lanmò.
31 And Pharao called Moses and Aaron by night, and said to them, Rise and depart from my people, both you and the children of Israel. Go and serve the Lord your God, even as you say.
Nan mitan lannwit lan, farawon an fè rele Moyiz ak Arawon, li di yo: -Leve, ale fè wout nou! Wete kò nou nan mitan pèp mwen an, nou menm ansanm ak moun pèp Izrayèl la. Ale, mwen di nou. Al fè sèvis pou Seyè a jan nou te di a.
32 And take with you your sheep, and your oxen: bless me also, I pray you.
Nou mèt pran mouton nou ak bèf nou yo, jan nou te di l' la. Epi mande Bondye pou l' beni mwen.
33 And the Egyptians constrained the people, so that they cast them out of the land with haste, for they said, We all shall die.
Moun peyi Lejip yo te cho cho dèyè moun pèp Izrayèl yo pou fè yo prese kite peyi a. Yo t'ap di: -Si nou pa ale, nou tout ap mouri!
34 And the people took their dough before their meal was leavened, bound up [as it was] in their garments, on their shoulders.
Se konsa pèp Izrayèl la pran pa t' farin lan san yo pa t' ankò mete ledven ladan l'. Yo mete yo sou platin fou yo, yo vlope yo nan rad yo, yo mete yo sou zepòl yo.
35 And the children of Israel did as Moses commanded them, and they asked of the Egyptians articles of silver and gold and apparel.
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo te fè sa Moyiz te di yo a. Yo mande moun peyi Lejip yo bijou an ajan, bijou an lò ansanm ak rad.
36 And the Lord gave his people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, and they lent to them; and they spoiled the Egyptians.
Seyè a te fè moun peyi Lejip yo gen kè sansib pou pèp Izrayèl la. Yo ba yo tou sa yo te mande. Se konsa pèp Izrayèl la pran tout bagay moun peyi Lejip yo.
37 And the children Israel departed from Ramesses to Socchoth, to [the full number of] six hundred thousand footmen, even men, besides the baggage.
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo pati kite Ranmsès pou Soukòt. Te gen sisanmil (600,000) moun konsa, san konte fanm ak timoun. Yo tout te apye.
38 And a great mixed [company] went up with them, and sheep and oxen and very much cattle.
Te gen anpil moun lòt peyi tou ki te pati ansanm ak yo. Te gen anpil mouton, kabrit ak bèf tou.
39 And they baked the dough which they brought out of Egypt, unleavened cakes, for it had not been leavened; for the Egyptians cast them out, and they could not remain, neither did they prepare provision for themselves for the journey.
Avèk pa t' farin yo te pote soti peyi Lejip la, yo fè pen. Pen yo te san ledven, paske yo te prese mete yo deyò nan peyi Lejip la. Yo pa t' menm gen tan fè pwovizyon.
40 And the sojourning of the children of Israel, while they sojourned in the land of Egypt and the land of Chanaan, [was] four hundred and thirty years.
Moun pèp Izrayèl yo te pase katsantrantan nan peyi Lejip la.
41 And it came to pass after the four hundred and thirty years, all the forces of the Lord came forth out of the land of Egypt by night.
Menm jou ki te fè yo katsantrantan nan peyi a, jou pou jou, tout lame moun Seyè a soti kite peyi Lejip la.
42 It is a watch kept to the Lord, so that he should bring them out of the land of Egypt; that very night is a watch kept to the Lord, so that it should be to all the children of Israel to their generations.
Se te yon jou lannwit. Seyè a te pase tout nwit la ap veye pou fè yo soti kite peyi Lejip la. Se poutèt sa, se pou yo mete nwit sa a apa pou yo fè veye pou Seyè a. Se bagay pou yo toujou fè de pitit an pitit.
43 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, This is the law of the passover: no stranger shall eat of it.
Seyè a di Moyiz ak Arawon konsa: -Men ki jan pou yo fete fèt Delivrans lan. Pou konmanse, ankenn moun lòt nasyon pa gen dwa patisipe ladan l'.
44 And every slave or servant bought with money—him you shall circumcise, and then shall he eat of it.
Domestik nou achte pou sèvis lakay nou, lè nou fin sikonsi yo, yo mèt patisipe.
45 A sojourner or hireling shall not eat of it.
Men, ni moun lòt nasyon ki depasaj lakay nou, ni domestik k'ap travay pou lajan pa ka patisipe nan fèt la.
46 In one house shall it be eaten, and you shall not carry of the flesh out from the house; and a bone of it you shall not break.
Se pou nou manje manje Delivrans lan anndan kay. Vyann lan pa fèt pou soti deyò menm. Ni nou pa fèt pou kraze ankenn zo bèt nou touye yo.
47 All the congregation of the children of Israel shall keep it.
Se pou tout pèp Izrayèl la nèt fete fèt sa a.
48 And if any proselyte shall come to you to keep the passover to the Lord, you shall circumcise every male of him, and then shall he approach to sacrifice it, and he shall be even as the original inhabitant of the land; no uncircumcised person shall eat of it.
Si gen yon moun lòt nasyon ki rete nan peyi a epi ki ta vle fete fèt Delivrans lan pou Seyè a, men sa pou nou fè: Sè pou nou sikonsi tout gason lakay li anvan. Apre sa, l'a gen dwa fete fèt Delivrans lan. y'a konsidere l' tankou moun natif natal pèp Izrayèl la. Si yon gason pa sikonsi, li pa ka patisipe nan fèt la.
49 There shall be one law to the native, and to the proselyte coming among you.
Lòd sa a bon ni pou natif natal yo ni pou moun lòt nasyon ki rete nan peyi a nan mitan nou.
50 And the children of Israel did as the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron for them, so they did.
Tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo te swiv lòd la, yo te fè sa Seyè a te bay Moyiz ak Arawon lòd fè a.
51 And it came to pass in that day that the Lord brought out the children of Israel from the land of Egypt with their forces.
Se jou sa a Seyè a te fè tout lame moun Izrayèl yo soti kite peyi Lejip la.
