New International Version – UK

Exodus 13:1-22

Consecration of the firstborn

1The Lord said to Moses, 2‘Consecrate to me every firstborn male. The first offspring of every womb among the Israelites belongs to me, whether human or animal.’

3Then Moses said to the people, ‘Commemorate this day, the day you came out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery, because the Lord brought you out of it with a mighty hand. Eat nothing containing yeast. 4Today, in the month of Aviv, you are leaving. 5When the Lord brings you into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Hivites and Jebusites – the land he swore to your ancestors to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey – you are to observe this ceremony in this month: 6for seven days eat bread made without yeast and on the seventh day hold a festival to the Lord. 7Eat unleavened bread during those seven days; nothing with yeast in it is to be seen among you, nor shall any yeast be seen anywhere within your borders. 8On that day tell your son, “I do this because of what the Lord did for me when I came out of Egypt.” 9This observance will be for you like a sign on your hand and a reminder on your forehead that this law of the Lord is to be on your lips. For the Lord brought you out of Egypt with his mighty hand. 10You must keep this ordinance at the appointed time year after year.

11‘After the Lord brings you into the land of the Canaanites and gives it to you, as he promised on oath to you and your ancestors, 12you are to give over to the Lord the first offspring of every womb. All the firstborn males of your livestock belong to the Lord. 13Redeem with a lamb every firstborn donkey, but if you do not redeem it, break its neck. Redeem every firstborn among your sons.

14‘In days to come when your son asks you, “What does this mean?” say to him, “With a mighty hand the Lord brought us out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 15When Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us go, the Lord killed the firstborn of both people and animals in Egypt. This is why I sacrifice to the Lord the first male offspring of every womb and redeem each of my firstborn sons.” 16And it will be like a sign on your hand and a symbol on your forehead that the Lord brought us out of Egypt with his mighty hand.’

Crossing the sea

17When Pharaoh let the people go, God did not lead them on the road through the Philistine country, though that was shorter. For God said, ‘If they face war, they might change their minds and return to Egypt.’ 18So God led the people around by the desert road towards the Red Sea.13:18 Or the Sea of Reeds The Israelites went up out of Egypt ready for battle.

19Moses took the bones of Joseph with him because Joseph had made the Israelites swear an oath. He had said, ‘God will surely come to your aid, and then you must carry my bones up with you from this place.’13:19 See Gen. 50:25.

20After leaving Sukkoth they camped at Etham on the edge of the desert. 21By day the Lord went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day or night. 22Neither the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire by night left its place in front of the people.

Msile chochote kilichotiwa chachu. 413:4 Kut 12:2Leo, katika mwezi wa Abibu,13:4 Abibu ni jina la mwezi wa kwanza kwa Wayahudi, ambao ni mwezi wa nne katika kalenda yetu. mnatoka. 513:5 Kut 3:8; 12:25-26Bwana atakapokuleta katika nchi ya Wakanaani, Wahiti, Waamori, Wahivi na Wayebusi, nchi aliyowaapia baba zako kukupa, nchi itiririkayo maziwa na asali, utaiadhimisha sikukuu hii katika mwezi huu: 613:6 Kut 12:15-20Kwa siku saba utakula mikate isiyotiwa chachu na katika siku ya saba utamfanyia Bwana sikukuu. 7Kwa muda wa siku saba utakula mikate isiyotiwa chachu, pasionekane kitu chochote kilicho na chachu miongoni mwako, wala chachu yoyote isionekane popote ndani ya mipaka yako. 813:8 Kut 10:2; Za 78:5-6Siku ile utamwambia mwanao, ‘Nafanya hivi kwa sababu ya jambo ambalo Bwana alinitendea nilipotoka katika nchi ya Misri.’ 913:9 Isa 44:5; Kum 6:8; 11:18; Mit 3:3; Mt 23:5; Kut 3:20Adhimisho hili, litakuwa kama alama kwenye mkono wako na ukumbusho katika paji lako la uso, kwamba sheria ya Bwana inapaswa iwe kinywani mwako. Kwa kuwa Bwana alikutoa katika nchi ya Misri kwa mkono wake wenye nguvu. 1013:10 Kut 12:14; Za 75:2; 102:13Ni lazima uishike amri hii kwa wakati uliopangwa mwaka baada ya mwaka.

1413:14 Kut 10:2; 20:2; Kum 7:8; 6:20; 28:68“Katika siku zijazo, mwanao akikuuliza, ‘Hii ina maana gani?’ Mwambie, ‘Kwa mkono wenye nguvu Bwana alitutoa katika nchi ya Misri, kutoka nchi ya utumwa. 15Farao alipokataa kwa ukaidi kuturuhusu kuondoka, Bwana aliua kila mzaliwa wa kwanza wa Wamisri, mwanadamu na wa mnyama. Hii ndiyo sababu ninatoa dhabihu kwa Bwana mzaliwa wa kwanza wa kiume, wa kila tumbo na kumkomboa kila mzaliwa wa kwanza wa wana wangu.’ 16Jambo hili litakuwa kama ishara kwenye mkono wako na kama alama kwenye paji la uso wako, kwamba Bwana alikutoa katika nchi ya Misri kwa mkono wake wenye nguvu.”

Nguzo Ya Wingu Na Moto

1713:17 Kut 14:11; Hes 14:1-4; Kum 17:16; Hos 11:5Farao alipowaachia watu waende, Mungu hakuwaongoza kufuata njia ipitiayo katika nchi ya Wafilisti, ingawa njia hiyo ilikuwa fupi zaidi. Kwa maana Mungu alisema, “Wakikabiliana na vita, wanaweza kubadili mawazo yao na kurudi Misri.” 1813:18 Kut 15:22; Za 136:16; Eze 20:10; Yos 4:13Kwa hiyo Mungu akawaongoza watu kupitia njia ya kuzunguka kupitia jangwani, kuelekea Bahari ya Shamu. Waisraeli walipanda kutoka nchi ya Misri wakiwa wamejiandaa kwa vita.

1913:19 Yos 24:32; Mdo 7:16; Ebr 11:22; Mwa 47:29-30Mose akachukua mifupa ya Yosefu kwa sababu Yosefu alikuwa amewaapisha wana wa Israeli. Alikuwa amewaambia, “Hakika Mungu atakuja kuwasaidia, nanyi ni lazima mwiichukue mifupa yangu mwende nayo kutoka mahali hapa.”

2013:20 Kut 12:37; Hes 33:6Baada ya Waisraeli kuondoka Sukothi wakapiga kambi huko Ethamu pembeni mwa jangwa. 2113:21 Kut 32:1; 33:14; Kum 2:7; 31:8; Amu 4:14; 5:4; Za 68:7; 72:20; Yer 2:2; Hab 3:13; Kut 14:19, 24; 24:16; 33:9-10; 34:5; 40:38; Hes 9:16; 12:5; 14:14; Kum 1:33; Neh 9:12, 19; Za 78:14; 99:7; 105:39; Isa 4:5; 1Kor 10:1Wakati wa mchana Bwana aliwatangulia kwa nguzo ya wingu kuwaongoza katika njia yao, na wakati wa usiku aliwatangulia kwa nguzo ya moto kuwaangazia, ili waweze kusafiri mchana au usiku. 2213:22 Neh 9:19; Hes 33:7; Yer 44:1; Eze 29:10Ile nguzo ya wingu wakati wa mchana au ile nguzo ya moto wakati wa usiku haikuondoka mahali pake mbele ya watu.
