Exodus 12
1 Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me there in Egypt,
ヱホバ、エジプトの國にてモーセとアロンに告ていひたまひけるは
2 “[From now on], this month [will be] the first month of the year for you.
此月を汝らの月の首となせ汝ら是を年の正月となすべし
3 Tell all the Israeli people that in each family, the man who heads the family must select a lamb or a young goat for his household.
汝等イスラエルの全會衆に告て言べし此月の十日に家の父たる者おのおの羔羊を取べし即ち家ごとに一箇の羔羊を取べし
4 If there are not enough people in his family to eat a whole [cooked] lamb, then his family and the family that lives next door may share one animal. Decide how many lambs you need according to the number of people in each family, and according to how much each person can eat.
もし家族少くして其羔羊を盡すことあたはずばその家の隣なる人とともに人の數にしたがひて之を取べし各人の食ふ所にしたがひて汝等羔羊を計るべし
5 The lambs or goats that you choose must be males, one-year-old, and they must not have any defects.
汝らの羔羊は疵なき當歳の牡なるべし汝等綿羊あるひは山羊の中よりこれを取べし
6 You must take [special] care of these animals until the 14th day of the month. On that day, all the Israeli people must slaughter the lambs [or goats] in the evening.
而して此月の十四日まで之を守りおきイスラエルの會衆みな薄暮に之を屠り
7 Then they must take some of the blood [from the lambs or goats], and they must smear it on the doorposts and the (lintels/horizontal beams above the doorways) of the houses in which they will eat the meat.
その血をとりて其之を食ふ家の門口の兩旁の橒と鴨居に塗べし
8 They must roast the animals immediately and eat the meat that night. They must eat it with bread that is baked without yeast and with bitter herbs.
而して此夜その肉を火に炙て食ひ又酵いれぬパンに苦菜をそへて食ふべし
9 You must not eat any of the meat raw, and you must not boil the meat. You must roast it [whole], without cutting off the head or the legs or removing the internal parts.
其を生にても水に煮ても食ふなかれ火に炙べし其頭と脛と臓腑とを皆くらへ
10 You must eat all the meat that evening; do not let any of the meat remain [to be eaten] the next morning. If any of the meat is left until the next morning, you must [completely] burn it.
其を明朝まで殘しおくなかれ其明朝まで殘れる者は火にて燒つくすべし
11 When you eat it, you must be dressed ready to travel, and you must eat it quickly. You must have your sandals on your feet and your walking stick in your hands. It will be a festival [called] Passover to [honor] me, Yahweh.
なんぢら斯之を食ふべし即ち腰をひきからげ足に鞋を穿き手に杖をとりて急て之を食ふべし是ヱホバの逾越節なり
12 On that night I will go through all the country of Egypt, and I will kill all the oldest males in Egypt, both humans and animals. [By doing this] I will show that all the gods in Egypt are worthless. [I can do this], because I am Yahweh, [the all-powerful God].
是夜われエジプトの國を巡りて人と畜とを論ずエジプトの國の中の長子たる者を盡く撃殺し又エジプトの諸の神に罰をかうむらせん我はヱホバなり
13 The blood [that you smear on the doorways will be a mark to indicate] the houses in which you [Israelis] live. When I see the blood, I will [ignore and] pass by those houses, and I will not harm you [Israelis who live there], when I punish the Egyptians.
その血なんぢらが居るところの家にありて汝等のために記號とならん我血を見る時なんぢらを逾越すべし又わがエジプトの國を撃つ時災なんぢらに降りて滅ぼすことなかるべし
14 [Each year], you must celebrate this festival on this day, to remember [what I], Yahweh, [have done for you]. In all the generations to come, [each year] you must celebrate [this festival]. [It must continue] forever.
汝ら是日を記念えてヱホバの節期となし世々これを祝ふべし汝等之を常例となして祝ふべし
15 For seven days you must eat bread that has no yeast in it. On the first day of that week you must get rid of all the yeast that is in your houses. During those seven days, if anyone eats bread that is baked with yeast in it, [you must consider] that person to be no longer an Israeli.
七日の間酵いれぬパンを食ふべしその首の日にパン酵を汝等の家より除け凡て首の日より七日までに酵入たるパンを食ふ人はイスラエルより絶るべきなり
16 On the first day [of that week], you must (have a holy meeting/gather together to [worship] me). You must do the same thing on the seventh day. People must not work on those two days. The only work they may do is to prepare food for you to eat.
且首の日に聖會をひらくべし又第七日に聖會を汝らの中に開け是ふたつの日には何の業をもなすべからず只各人の食ふ者のみ汝等作ることを得べし
17 [Every year] you must keep celebrating this festival of eating bread that has no yeast in it, because it will remind you that it was on this day that I brought all your tribal groups out of Egypt. So [every year], in all the generations to come, you must celebrate this day as a festival. It must continue forever.
汝ら酵いれぬパンの節期を守るべし其は此日に我なんぢらの軍隊をエジプトの國より導きいだせばなり故に汝ら常例となして世々是日をまもるべし
18 In the first month of the year, on the 14th day of that month, the only bread you may eat is bread that has no yeast in it. You must keep doing that each day until the 21st day of that month. For those seven days you must not have any yeast in your house. [During that time], if anyone, either an Israeli or a foreigner, eats bread made with yeast, you must consider that person no longer to be an Israeli.
正月に於てその月の十四日の晩より同月の二十一日の晩まで汝ら酵いれぬパンを食へ
七日の間なんぢらの家にパン酵をおくべからず凡て酵いれたる物を食ふ人は其異邦人たると本國に生れし者たるとを問ず皆イスラエルの聖會より絶るべし
20 In your houses, do not eat anything that has yeast in it during those seven days.”
汝ら酵いれたる物は何をも食ふべからず凡て汝らの居處に於ては酵いれぬパンを食ふべし
21 Then Moses/I summoned all the leaders of the Israeli people. He/I said to them, “Each family should select a lamb and kill it, [in order that you may eat it to celebrate the festival that will be called] ‘Passover’.
是に於てモーセ、イスラエルの長老を盡くまねきて之にいふ汝等その家族に循ひて一頭の羔羊を撿み取り之を屠りて逾越節のために備へよ
22 Let the lamb’s blood [drain into] a basin. Get a bunch/sprig of (hyssop/a very leafy plant) and dip it in the blood. Then smear some of the blood on the doorposts and the (lintels/beams above the doorways) [of your houses]. The people in each house must all stay inside the house until the next morning.
又牛膝草一束を取て盂の血に濡し盂の血を門口の鴨居および二旁の柱にそそぐべし明朝にいたるまで汝等一人も家の戸をいづるなかれ
23 When Yahweh goes throughout Egypt to kill the [oldest male in each] Egyptian family, he will see the blood on the (lintels/beams of your doorways), and he will [ignore and] pass by those houses. He will not allow the angel who causes people to die to enter your houses and kill [any of] your [oldest sons].
其はヱホバ、エジプトを撃に巡りたまふ時鴨居と兩旁の柱に血のあるを見ばヱキバ其門を逾越し殺滅者をして汝等の家に入て撃ざらしめたまふべければなり
24 You and your descendants must celebrate this festival forever.
汝ら是事を例となして汝となんぢの子孫永くこれを守るべし
25 And when you arrive in the land that Yahweh will be giving to you as he promised, you must keep celebrating this ritual [every year].
汝等ヱホバがその言たまひし如くになんぢらに與へたまはんところの地に至る時はこの禮式をまもるべし
26 When your children ask you, ‘What does this ritual mean?’,
若なんぢらの子女この禮式は何の意なるやと汝らに問ば
27 you must tell them, ‘This ritual is [to remember how our ancestors] sacrificed [lambs] on the night that Yahweh’s angel passed by the houses of the Israeli people [when they were] in Egypt. He killed the [oldest males/sons in all] the Egyptian houses, but he spared [the sons in] [MTY] our houses.’” After Moses/I told them this, they all bowed their heads and worshiped [Yahweh].
汝ら言ふべし是はヱホバの逾越節の祭祀なりヱホバ、エジプト人を撃たまひし時エジプトにをるイスラエルの子孫の家を逾越てわれらの家を救ひたまへりと民すなはち鞠て拝せり
28 Then the Israeli people did what Yahweh had told Aaron and Moses/me [to tell them to do].
イスラエルの子孫去てヱホバのモーセとアロンに命じたまひしごとくなし斯おこなへり
29 At midnight Yahweh killed all the oldest sons of the Egyptian people, all over Egypt. That included the king’s oldest son, the oldest sons of the prisoners in the dungeon/jail, and [the oldest sons of everyone else]. He also killed the oldest males of all the Egyptians’ livestock.
爰にヱホバ夜半にエジプトの國の中の長子たる者を位に坐するパロの長子より牢獄にある俘虜の長子まで盡く撃たまふ亦家畜の首生もしかり
30 That night the king, all his officials, and [all the rest of] the Egyptian people awoke [and discovered what had happened]. They wailed loudly all over Egypt, because in every house, someone’s son had died.
期有しかばパロとその諸の臣下およびエジプト人みな夜の中に起あがりエジプトに大なる號哭ありき死人あらざる家なかりければなり
31 That night the king summoned Aaron and Moses/me and said, “You and all the [other] Israeli people, must leave my country [immediately]! Go and worship Yahweh, as you requested!
パロすなはち夜の中にモーセとアロンを召ていひけるは汝らとイスラエルの子孫起てわが民の中より出さり汝らがいへる如くに往てヱホバに事へよ
32 Take your flocks [of sheep and goats] and herds [of cattle], and leave! And ask Yahweh to bless me, also!”
亦なんぢらが言るごとく汝らの羊と牛をひきて去れ汝らまた我を祝せよと
33 Then the Israeli people did as Moses/I had told them. They [went to] their Egyptian [neighbors] and asked them for silver and gold jewelry and clothing.
是においてエジプト人我等みな死ると言て民を催逼て速かに國を去しめんとせしかば
34 Yahweh caused the Egyptian people to greatly respect the [Israeli] people, so they gave them what they asked for. In that way, they carried away the wealth of the Egyptian people.
民捏粉の未だ酵いれざるを執り捏盤を衣服に包みて肩に負ふ
35 The Egyptians urged the [Israeli] people to leave their country quickly. They said, “[If you do not do that], we will all die!”
而してイスラエルの子孫モーセの言のごとく爲しエジプト人に銀の飾物、金の飾物および衣服を乞たるに
36 So the [Israeli] people [prepared to leave at once]. They took the bowls in which they mixed the dough to make bread, and the dough that was in the bowls without any yeast in it, and they wrapped the bowls in their cloaks. They put the bowls on their shoulders [and left].
ヱホバ、エジプト人をして民をめぐましめ彼等にこれを與へしめたまふ斯かれらエジプト人の物を取り
37 The Israeli people traveled from Rameses [city] to Succoth [town]. There were about 600,000 men who went, in addition to the women and children.
斯てイスラエルの子孫ラメセスよりスコテに進みしが子女の外に徒にて歩める男六十萬人ありき
38 Many other people who were not Israelis went along with them. There were also livestock, the flocks [of sheep and goats] and herds [of cattle].
又衆多の寄集人および羊牛等はなはだ多の家畜彼等とともに上れり
39 On their way, they baked bread with the dough that they carried with them when they had been expelled from Egypt. The dough did not have yeast in it, because they were told to leave Egypt so quickly that they did not have enough time to get food ready to take with them, or enough time to mix yeast in the dough.
爰に彼等エジプトより携へいでたる捏粉をもて酵いれぬパンを烘り未だ酵をいれざりければなり是かれらエジプトより逐いだされて濡滞るを得ざりしに由り又何の食糧をも備へざりしに因る
40 The Israeli people had lived in Egypt 430 years.
偖イスラエルの子孫のエジプトに住居しその住居の間は四百三十年なりき
41 On the day that those 430 years ended, on that very day, all the tribes of Yahweh’s people left Egypt.
四百三十年の終にいたり即ち其日にヱホバの軍隊みなエジプトの國より出たり
42 It was a night when Yahweh (protected/guarded over) them as he brought them out of Egypt. So this same night every year is a night that is dedicated to Yahweh, a night when the Israeli people in every generation [remember how] Yahweh protected our ancestors.
是はヱホバが彼等をエジプトの國より導きいだしたまひし事のためにヱホバの前に守るべき夜なり是はヱホバの夜にしてイスラエルの子孫が皆世々まもるべき者なり
43 Then Yahweh said this to Aaron and Moses/me: “These are my instructions about the Passover ritual: Do not let foreigners eat [the Passover meal]. But any male slaves that you have bought may eat it after you have circumcised them.
ヱホバ、モーセとアロンに言たまひけるは逾越節の例は是のごとし異邦人はこれを食ふべからず
但し各人の金にて買たる僕は割禮を施して然る後是を食しむべし
45 Do not let people who are living among you temporarily, or servants whom you have hired, eat [the Passover meal].
外國の客および傭人は之を食ふべからず
46 Each family must eat the Passover meal inside their own house. Do not take any of the food outside the house. And do not break any of the bones of the lamb that is sacrificed.
一の家にてこれを食ふべしその肉を少も家の外に持いづるなかれ又其骨を折べからず
47 All the Israeli people must celebrate this festival.
イスラエルの會衆みな之を守るべし
48 When someone from another country comes to live with you and wants to celebrate the Passover Festival, circumcise all the males in his household. Then they may eat the Passover meal, and you should treat those people as though they were born as Israelis. But do not allow men who have not been circumcised to eat the Passover meal.
異邦人なんぢとともに寄居てヱホバの逾越節を守らんとせば其男悉く割禮を受て然る後に近りて守るべし即ち彼は國に生れたる者のごとくなるべし割禮をうけざる人はこれを食ふべからざるなり
49 These rules apply to people who were born as Israelis and to foreigners who come and live among you.”
國に生れたる者にもまた汝らの中に寄居る異邦人にも此法は同一なり
50 All the Israeli people obeyed Aaron and Moses/me and did what Yahweh had commanded.
イスラエルの子孫みな斯おこなひヱホバのモーセとアロンに命じたまひしごとく爲たり
51 On that very day Yahweh brought all the tribes of the Israeli people out of Egypt.
その同じ日にヱホバ、イスラエルの子孫をその軍隊にしたがひてエジプトの國より導きいだしたまへり
