9Now the LORD spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt, saying:H3068H1696H4872H4057H5514H7223H2320H8145H8141H3318H776H4714H5592"Let the children of Israel keep the Passover at its appointed time.H1121H3478H6213H6453H41503"On the fourteenth day of this month, at twilight, you shall keep it at its appointed time. According to all its rites and ceremonies you shall keep it."H702H6240H3117H2320H6153H6213H4150H2708H4941H62134So Moses told the children of Israel that they should keep the Passover.H4872H1696H1121H3478H6213H64535And they kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month, at twilight, in the Wilderness of Sinai; according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did.H6213H6453H702H6240H3117H7223H2320H6153H4057H5514H3068H6680H4872H6213H1121H34786Now there were certain men who were defiled by a human corpse, so that they could not keep the Passover on that day; and they came before Moses and Aaron that day.H582H2931H5315H120H3201H6213H6453H3117H7126H6440H4872H6440H175H31177And those men said to him, "We became defiled by a human corpse. Why are we kept from presenting the offering of the LORD at its appointed time among the children of Israel?"H1992H582H559H2931H5315H120H1639H7126H7133H3068H4150H8432H1121H34788And Moses said to them, "Stand still, that I may hear what the LORD will command concerning you."H4872H559H5975H8085H3068H66809Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,H3068H1696H4872H55910"Speak to the children of Israel, saying: 'If anyone of you or your posterity is unclean because of a corpse, or is far away on a journey, he may still keep the LORD'S Passover.H1696H1121H3478H559H376H376H1755H2931H5315H1870H7350H6213H6453H306811'On the fourteenth day of the second month, at twilight, they may keep it. They shall eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.H702H6240H3117H8145H2320H6153H6213H398H4682H484412'They shall leave none of it until morning, nor break one of its bones. According to all the ordinances of the Passover they shall keep it.H7604H1242H7665H6106H2708H6453H621313'But the man who is clean and is not on a journey, and ceases to keep the Passover, that same person shall be cut off from among his people, because he did not bring the offering of the LORD at its appointed time; that man shall bear his sin.H376H2889H1870H2308H6213H6453H5315H3772H5971H7126H7133H3068H4150H376H5375H239914'And if a stranger dwells among you, and would keep the LORD'S Passover, he must do so according to the rite of the Passover and according to its ceremony; you shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger and the native of the land.'"H1616H1481H6213H6453H3068H2708H6453H4941H6213H259H2708H1616H249H77615Now on the day that the tabernacle was raised up, the cloud covered the tabernacle, the tent of the Testimony; from evening until morning it was above the tabernacle like the appearance of fire.H3117H4908H6965H6051H3680H4908H168H5715H6153H4908H4758H784H124216So it was always: the cloud covered it by day, and the appearance of fire by night.H8548H6051H3680H4758H784H391517Whenever the cloud was taken up from above the tabernacle, after that the children of Israel would journey; and in the place where the cloud settled, there the children of Israel would pitch their tents.H6310H6051H5927H168H310H1121H3478H5265H4725H6051H7931H1121H3478H258318At the command of the LORD the children of Israel would journey, and at the command of the LORD they would camp; as long as the cloud stayed above the tabernacle they remained encamped.H6310H3068H1121H3478H5265H6310H3068H2583H3117H6051H7931H4908H258319Even when the cloud continued long, many days above the tabernacle, the children of Israel kept the charge of the LORD and did not journey.H6051H748H4908H7227H3117H1121H3478H8104H4931H3068H526520So it was, when the cloud was above the tabernacle a few days: according to the command of the LORD they would remain encamped, and according to the command of the LORD they would journey.H3426H6051H4557H3117H4908H6310H3068H2583H6310H3068H526521So it was, when the cloud remained only from evening until morning: when the cloud was taken up in the morning, then they would journey; whether by day or by night, whenever the cloud was taken up, they would journey.H3426H6051H6153H1242H6051H5927H1242H5265H3119H3915H6051H5927H526522Whether it was two days, a month, or a year that the cloud remained above the tabernacle, the children of Israel would remain encamped and not journey; but when it was taken up, they would journey.H3117H2320H3117H6051H748H4908H7931H1121H3478H2583H5265H5927H526523At the command of the LORD they remained encamped, and at the command of the LORD they journeyed; they kept the charge of the LORD, at the command of the LORD by the hand of Moses.H6310H3068H2583H6310H3068H5265H8104H4931H3068H6310H3068H3027H4872
