Numbers 9 (NLT) New Living Translation

1 A year after Israel's departure from Egypt, the LORD spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai. In the first month of that year he said,
2 "Tell the Israelites to celebrate the Passover at the prescribed time,
3 at twilight on the fourteenth day of the first month. Be sure to follow all my decrees and regulations concerning this celebration."
4 So Moses told the people to celebrate the Passover
5 in the wilderness of Sinai as twilight fell on the fourteenth day of the month. And they celebrated the festival there, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
6 But some of the men had been ceremonially defiled by touching a dead body, so they could not celebrate the Passover that day. They came to Moses and Aaron that day
7 and said, "We have become ceremonially unclean by touching a dead body. But why should we be prevented from presenting the LORD's offering at the proper time with the rest of the Israelites?"
8 Moses answered, "Wait here until I have received instructions for you from the LORD."
9 This was the LORD's reply to Moses.
10 "Give the following instructions to the people of Israel: If any of the people now or in future generations are ceremonially unclean at Passover time because of touching a dead body, or if they are on a journey and cannot be present at the ceremony, they may still celebrate the LORD's Passover.
11 They must offer the Passover sacrifice one month later, at twilight on the fourteenth day of the second month. They must eat the Passover lamb at that time with bitter salad greens and bread made without yeast.
12 They must not leave any of the lamb until the next morning, and they must not break any of its bones. They must follow all the normal regulations concerning the Passover.
13 "But those who neglect to celebrate the Passover at the regular time, even though they are ceremonially clean and not away on a trip, will be cut off from the community of Israel. If they fail to present the LORD's offering at the proper time, they will suffer the consequences of their guilt.
14 And if foreigners living among you want to celebrate the Passover to the LORD, they must follow these same decrees and regulations. The same laws apply both to native-born Israelites and to the foreigners living among you."
15 On the day the Tabernacle was set up, the cloud covered it. But from evening until morning the cloud over the Tabernacle looked like a pillar of fire.
16 This was the regular pattern-- at night the cloud that covered the Tabernacle had the appearance of fire.
17 Whenever the cloud lifted from over the sacred tent, the people of Israel would break camp and follow it. And wherever the cloud settled, the people of Israel would set up camp.
18 In this way, they traveled and camped at the LORD's command wherever he told them to go. Then they remained in their camp as long as the cloud stayed over the Tabernacle.
19 If the cloud remained over the Tabernacle for a long time, the Israelites stayed and performed their duty to the LORD.
20 Sometimes the cloud would stay over the Tabernacle for only a few days, so the people would stay for only a few days, as the LORD commanded. Then at the LORD's command they would break camp and move on.
21 Sometimes the cloud stayed only overnight and lifted the next morning. But day or night, when the cloud lifted, the people broke camp and moved on.
22 Whether the cloud stayed above the Tabernacle for two days, a month, or a year, the people of Israel stayed in camp and did not move on. But as soon as it lifted, they broke camp and moved on.
23 So they camped or traveled at the LORD's command, and they did whatever the LORD told them through Moses.

4 And Moses H4872 spoke H1696 W-VPY3MS unto H413 PREP the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , that they should keep H6213 the passover H6453 .

8 And Moses H4872 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS them , Stand still H5975 , and I will hear H8085 what H4100 IPRO the LORD H3068 EDS will command H6680 concerning you .
9 And the LORD H3068 EDS spoke H1696 W-VPY3MS unto H413 PREP Moses H4872 , saying H559 ,
10 Speak H1696 VPFC unto H413 PREP the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , saying H559 L-VQFC , If H3588 CONJ any man H376 NMS of you or H176 CONJ of your posterity H1755 shall be H1961 unclean H2931 by reason of a dead body H5315 , or H176 CONJ be in a journey H1870 afar off H7350 , yet he shall keep H6213 W-VQQ3MS the passover H6453 unto the LORD H3068 .
11 The fourteenth H702 day H3117 NMS of the second H8145 D-ONUM month H2320 BD-NMS at H996 PREP even H6153 they shall keep H6213 it , and eat H398 it with H5921 PREP unleavened bread H4682 and bitter H4844 herbs .
12 They shall leave H7604 none H3808 ADV of H4480 M-PREP-3MS it unto H5704 PREP the morning H1242 NMS , nor H3808 NADV break H7665 any bone H6106 of it : according to all H3605 the ordinances H2708 of the passover H6453 they shall keep H6213 it .
13 But the man H376 D-NMS that H834 RPRO is clean H2889 AMS , and is H1961 VQQ3MS not H3808 NADV in a journey H1870 , and forbeareth H2308 to keep H6213 L-VQFC the passover H6453 , even the same H1931 PPRO-3MS soul H5315 D-NFS shall be cut off H3772 from among his people H5971 : because H3588 CONJ he brought H7126 VHQ3MS not H3808 NADV the offering H7133 of the LORD H3068 EDS in his appointed season H4150 , that H1931 D-PPRO-3FS man H376 D-NMS shall bear H5375 VQY3MS his sin H2399 .
14 And if H3588 a stranger H1616 NMS shall sojourn H1481 among H854 PART-2MP you , and will keep H6213 the passover H6453 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS ; according to the ordinance H2708 of the passover H6453 , and according to the manner H4941 thereof , so H3651 ADV shall he do H6213 VQY3MS : ye shall have H1961 VQY3MS one H259 OFS ordinance H2708 , both for the stranger H1616 , and for him that was born H249 in the land H776 D-GFS .
15 And on the day H3117 that the tabernacle H4908 was reared up H6965 the cloud H6051 covered H3680 VPQ3MS the tabernacle H4908 , namely , the tent H168 of the testimony H5715 : and at even H6153 there was H1961 VQY3MS upon H5921 PREP the tabernacle H4908 as it were the appearance H4758 of fire H784 CMS , until H5704 PREP the morning H1242 .
16 So H3651 ADV it was H1961 VQY3MS always H8548 : the cloud H6051 covered H3680 it by day , and the appearance H4758 of fire H784 CMS by night H3915 NMS .
17 And when H6310 the cloud H6051 was taken up H5927 from M-PREP the tabernacle H168 , then after H310 that H3651 ADV the children H1121 of Israel H3478 journeyed H5265 : and in the place H4725 where H834 RPRO the cloud H6051 abode H7931 VQY3MS , there H8033 ADV the children H1121 of Israel H3478 LMS pitched their tents H2583 .
18 At H5921 PREP the commandment H6310 of the LORD H3068 EDS the children H1121 of Israel H3478 journeyed H5265 , and at H5921 PREP the commandment H6310 of the LORD H3068 EDS they pitched H2583 : as long as NMS the cloud H6051 abode H7931 VQY3MS upon H5921 PREP the tabernacle H4908 they rested in their tents H2583 .
19 And when the cloud H6051 tarried long H748 upon H5921 PREP the tabernacle H4908 many H7227 AMP days H3117 NMP , then the children H1121 CMP of Israel H3478 kept H8104 the charge H4931 of the LORD H3068 EDS , and journeyed H5265 not H3808 W-NPAR .
20 And so it was H3426 , when H834 RPRO the cloud H6051 was H1961 VQY3MS a few H4557 NMS days H3117 NMP upon H5921 PREP the tabernacle H4908 ; according to H5921 PREP the commandment H6310 of the LORD H3068 EDS they abode in their tents H2583 , and according to H5921 PREP the commandment H6310 of the LORD H3068 EDS they journeyed H5265 .
21 And so it was H3426 , when H834 RPRO the cloud H6051 abode H1961 VQY3MS from even H6153 unto H5704 PREP the morning H1242 B-NMS , and that the cloud H6051 was taken up H5927 in the morning H1242 B-NMS , then they journeyed H5265 : whether H176 CONJ it was by day H3119 ADV or by night H3915 W-NMS that the cloud H6051 was taken up H5927 , they journeyed H5265 .
22 Or H176 CONJ whether it were two days H3117 , or H176 CONJ a month H2320 , or H176 CONJ a year H3117 NMP , that the cloud H6051 tarried H748 upon H5921 PREP the tabernacle H4908 , remaining H7931 L-VQFC thereon H5921 PREP , the children H1121 of Israel H3478 abode in their tents H2583 , and journeyed H5265 not H3808 W-NPAR : but when it was taken up H5927 , they journeyed H5265 .
23 At H5921 PREP the commandment H6310 of the LORD H3068 EDS they rested in the tents H2583 , and at H5921 PREP the commandment H6310 of the LORD H3068 EDS they journeyed H5265 : they kept H8104 the charge H4931 of the LORD H3068 EDS , at H5921 PREP the commandment H6310 of the LORD H3068 EDS by the hand H3027 B-CFS of Moses H4872 .
