Exodus 12
1 Yahweh said to Aaron and Moses/me there in Egypt,
Y habló Jehová a Moisés, y a Aarón en la tierra de Egipto, diciendo:
2 “[From now on], this month [will be] the first month of the year for you.
Este mes os será cabeza de los meses: este os será primero en los meses del año.
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.
Hablád a toda la congregación de Israel, diciendo: A los diez de aqueste mes tómese cada uno un cordero por las familias de los padres, un cordero cada familia:
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.
Mas si la familia fuere pequeña que no baste a comer el cordero, entonces tomará a su vecino cercano de su casa, y según el número de las personas, cada uno según su comida, echaréis la cuenta sobre el cordero.
5 The lambs or goats that you choose must be males, one-year-old, and they must not have any defects.
El cordero será a vosotros perfecto macho, de un año, el cual tomaréis de las ovejas, o de las cabras:
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.
Y guardarlo heis hasta el catorceno día de este mes: y sacrificarlo ha toda la compañía de la congregación de Israel entre las dos tardes.
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.
Y tomarán de la sangre, y pondrán en los dos postes, y en los bates de las casas, en las cuales lo han de comer.
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.
Y aquella noche comerán la carne asada al fuego, y panes sin levadura: con yerbas amargas lo comerán.
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.
Ninguna cosa comeréis de él cruda, no cocida en agua, sino asada al fuego; su cabeza con sus pies y sus intestinos.
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.
Ninguna cosa dejaréis de él hasta la mañana; y lo que habrá quedado hasta la mañana, quemarlo heis en el fuego.
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.
Y comerlo heis así: Ceñidos vuestros lomos, y vuestros zapatos en vuestros pies: y vuestro bordón en vuestra mano, y comerlo heis apresuradamente. Esta es la pascua de Jehová.
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].
Y yo pasaré por la tierra de Egipto aquesta noche; y heriré a todo primogénito en la tierra de Egipto, así en los hombres como en las bestias: y haré juicios en todos los dioses de Egipto. Yo Jehová.
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.
Y la sangre os será por señal en las casas donde vosotros estuviereis; y veré la sangre, y pasaré por encima de vosotros, y no habrá en vosotros plaga de mortandad, cuando yo heriré la tierra de Egipto.
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.
Y seros ha este día en memoria; y celebrarlo heis solemne a Jehová por vuestras edades: por estatuto perpetuo lo celebraréis.
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.
Siete días comeréis panes sin levadura; mas el primer día haréis que no haya levadura en vuestras casas: porque cualquiera que comiere leudado, desde el primer día hasta el séptimo, aquella alma será cortada de Israel.
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.
El primer día os será santa convocación, y así mismo el séptimo día os será santa convocación: ninguna obra se hará en ellos, solamente lo que toda persona hubiere de comer, esto solamente se aderece para vosotros.
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.
Y guardaréis los ácimos, porque en aqueste mismo día saqué vuestros ejércitos de la tierra de Egipto: por tanto guardaréis este día por vuestras edades por costumbre perpetua.
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.
En el primero, a los catorce días del mes, a la tarde, comeréis los panes sin levadura, hasta los veinte y uno del mes a la tarde.
Por siete días no se hallará levadura en vuestras casas; porque cualquiera que comiere leudado, así extranjero como natural de la tierra, aquella alma será cortada de la congregación de Israel.
20 In your houses, do not eat anything that has yeast in it during those seven days.”
Ninguna cosa leudada comeréis: en todas vuestras habitaciones comeréis panes sin levadura.
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’.
Y Moisés convocó a todos los ancianos de Israel, y díjoles: Sacád, y tomáos corderos por vuestras familias, y sacrificád la pascua.
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.
Y tomád un manojo de hisopo, y mojádlo en la sangre que estará en un lebrillo, y untád los bates y los dos postes con la sangre que estará en el lebrillo; y ninguno de vosotros salga de las puertas de su casa hasta la mañana.
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].
Porque Jehová pasará hiriendo a los Egipcios; y como verá la sangre en el bate, y en los dos postes, Jehová pasará aquella puerta, y no dejará entrar al heridor en vuestras casas para herir.
24 You and your descendants must celebrate this festival forever.
Y guardaréis esto por estatuto para vosotros y para vuestros hijos para siempre.
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].
Y será, que cuando entrareis en la tierra que Jehová os dará, como habló, y guardareis este rito;
26 When your children ask you, ‘What does this ritual mean?’,
Y cuando os dijeren vuestros hijos: ¿Qué rito es este vuestro?
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].
Vosotros responderéis: Esta es la víctima de la pascua de Jehová, el cual pasó por encima de las casas de los hijos de Israel en Egipto, cuando hirió a los Egipcios, y libró nuestras casas. Entonces el pueblo se inclinó, y adoró.
28 Then the Israeli people did what Yahweh had told Aaron and Moses/me [to tell them to do].
Y los hijos de Israel fueron, e hicieron como Jehová había mandado a Moisés y a Aarón, así lo hicieron.
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.
Y aconteció que a la media noche Jehová hirió a todo primogénito en la tierra de Egipto, desde el primogénito de Faraón, que estaba sentado sobre su trono, hasta el primogénito del cautivo que estaba en la cárcel, y a todo primogénito de los animales.
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.
Y levantóse aquella noche Faraón, él y todos sus siervos, y todos los Egipcios, y había un gran clamor en Egipto; porque no había casa donde no hubiese muerto.
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!
E hizo llamar a Moisés y a Aarón de noche, y díjoles: Levantáos; salíd de en medio de mi pueblo vosotros y los hijos de Israel; e id, servíd a Jehová, como habéis dicho.
32 Take your flocks [of sheep and goats] and herds [of cattle], and leave! And ask Yahweh to bless me, also!”
Tomád también vuestras ovejas, también vuestras vacas, como habéis dicho, e ídos, y bendecídme también a mí.
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.
Y los Egipcios apremiaban al pueblo, dándose priesa a echarlos de la tierra, porque decían: Todos somos muertos.
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.
Y llevó el pueblo su masa antes que se leudase, sus masas atadas, en sus sábanas sobre sus hombros.
35 The Egyptians urged the [Israeli] people to leave their country quickly. They said, “[If you do not do that], we will all die!”
E hicieron los hijos de Israel conforme al mandamiento de Moisés, demandando a los Egipcios vasos de plata, y vasos de oro, y vestidos.
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].
Y Jehová dio gracia al pueblo delante de los Egipcios, y prestáronles, y ellos despojaron a los Egipcios.
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.
Y partieron los hijos de Israel de Rameses a Socot como seiscientos mil hombres de a pie, sin los niños.
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].
Y también subió con ellos grande multitud de diversa suerte de gentes, y ovejas y vacas, y ganados muy muchos.
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.
Y cocieron la masa, que habían sacado de Egipto e hicieron tortas sin levadura; porque no habían leudado; porque echándolos los Egipcios no habían podido detenerse, ni aun aparejarse comida.
40 The Israeli people had lived in Egypt 430 years.
El tiempo que los hijos de Israel habitaron en Egipto, fue cuatrocientos y treinta años.
41 On the day that those 430 years ended, on that very day, all the tribes of Yahweh’s people left Egypt.
Y pasados cuatrocientos y treinta años en el mismo día salieron todos los ejércitos de Jehová de la tierra de Egipto.
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.
Esta es noche de guardar a Jehová, por haberlos sacado en ella de la tierra de Egipto. Esta noche deben guardar a Jehová todos los hijos de Israel por sus edades.
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.
Y Jehová dijo a Moisés y a Aarón: Esta será la ordenanza de la pascua. Ningún extraño comerá de ella.
Y todo siervo humano comprado por dinero, comerá de ella después que le hubieres circuncidado.
45 Do not let people who are living among you temporarily, or servants whom you have hired, eat [the Passover meal].
El extranjero, y el salariado no comerán de ella.
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.
En una casa se comerá, y no llevarás de aquella carne fuera de casa, ni quebraréis hueso en él.
47 All the Israeli people must celebrate this festival.
Toda la congregación de Israel le sacrificará.
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.
Mas si algún extranjero peregrinare contigo, y quisiere hacer la pascua a Jehová, séale circuncidado todo varón, y entonces se llegará a hacerla, y será como el natural de la tierra, y ningún incircunciso comerá de ella.
49 These rules apply to people who were born as Israelis and to foreigners who come and live among you.”
La misma ley será para el natural y para el extranjero que peregrinare entre vosotros.
50 All the Israeli people obeyed Aaron and Moses/me and did what Yahweh had commanded.
Y todos los hijos de Israel hicieron como Jehová lo mandó a Moisés y a Aarón, así lo hicieron.
51 On that very day Yahweh brought all the tribes of the Israeli people out of Egypt.
Y en aquel mismo día Jehová sacó a los hijos de Israel de la tierra de Egipto por sus escuadrones.
