1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after their departure from the land of Egypt, saying,
2 Let the children of Israel also hold the passover at its set time;
3 on the fourteenth day in this month between the two evenings, ye shall hold it at its set time; according to all the rites of it, and according to all the ordinances thereof shall ye hold it.
4 And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they should hold the passover.
5 And they held the passover in the first {month} on the fourteenth day of the month, between the two evenings, in the wilderness of Sinai: according to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel.
6 And there were men, who were unclean through the dead body of a man, and could not hold the passover on that day; and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day.
7 And those men said to him, We are unclean by reason of the dead body of a man: why are we kept back, that we may not present the offering of Jehovah at its set time among the children of Israel?
8 And Moses said to them, Stay, and I will hear what Jehovah commands concerning you.
9 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
10 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any one of you or of your generations be unclean by reason of a dead body or be on a journey afar off, yet he shall hold the passover to Jehovah.
11 In the second month, on the fourteenth day, between the two evenings, shall they hold it; with unleavened bread and bitter herbs shall they eat it.
12 They shall leave none of it until the morning, nor break a bone thereof: according to every ordinance of the passover shall they hold it.
13 But a man that is clean, and is not on a journey, and forbeareth to hold the passover, that soul shall be cut off from among his peoples; because he presented not the offering of Jehovah at its set time: that man shall bear his sin.
14 And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and would hold the passover to Jehovah, according to the rite of the passover, and according to the ordinance thereof, so shall he do. Ye shall have one rite, both for the stranger and for him that is born in the land.
15 And on the day that the tabernacle was set up, the cloud covered the tabernacle of the tent of testimony; and at even it was upon the tabernacle as the appearance of fire, until the morning.
16 So it was continually: the cloud covered it, and at night it was as the appearance of fire.
17 And when the cloud rose from the tent, then the children of Israel journeyed; and at the place where the cloud stood still, there the children of Israel encamped.
18 According to the commandment of Jehovah the children of Israel journeyed, and according to the commandment of Jehovah they {remained} encamped; all the days that the cloud dwelt upon the tabernacle they encamped.
19 And when the cloud was long upon the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the charge of Jehovah, and journeyed not.
20 And if it were so that the cloud was a few days upon the tabernacle, according to the commandment of Jehovah they encamped, and according to the commandment of Jehovah they journeyed.
21 And if it were so that the cloud was there from the evening until the morning, and that the cloud was taken up in the morning, then they journeyed; or a day and a night, and the cloud was taken up, they journeyed;
22 or two days, or a month, or many days, when the cloud was long upon the tabernacle, dwelling upon it, the children of Israel {remained} encamped, and journeyed not; but when it was taken up, they journeyed.
23 At the commandment of Jehovah they encamped, and at the commandment of Jehovah they journeyed: they kept the charge of Jehovah according to the commandment of Jehovah through Moses.
1 以色列人出埃及地以后， 第二年正月， 耶和华在西奈旷野吩咐摩西说：
2 "以色列人要在指定的时间守逾越节，
3 就是本月十四日， 黄昏的时候， 你们要在指定的时间守这节， 要照着这节的一切律例和一切典章而行。"
4 于是， 摩西吩咐以色列人要守逾越节。
5 他们就在正月十四日， 黄昏的时候， 在西奈旷野守了逾越节； 耶和华怎样吩咐了摩西， 以色列人就怎样行了。
6 有几个人因为触着死人而不洁净， 以致他们不能在那一天守逾越节； 当日他们来到摩西和亚伦面前。
7 这些人对摩西说： "我们虽然因为接触死人而不洁净， 为什么我们被拒绝， 不能在以色列人中， 在指定的时间献耶和华的供物呢？"
8 摩西对他们说： "你们且等候， 我要去听耶和华对你们有什么吩咐。"
9 耶和华对摩西说：
10 "你要告诉以色列人说： 你们或你们的后代中， 如果有人因为接触死人而成为不洁净， 或因到远方旅行， 他还要向耶和华守逾越节；
11 他们要在二月十四日， 黄昏的时候， 守逾越节， 同时要吃无酵饼和苦菜；
12 一点也不留到早晨， 羊羔的骨头， 一根也不可折断； 他们要照着逾越节的一切律例守节。
13 但那洁净的， 又不在路上旅行的人， 如果忽略守逾越节， 那人就要从自己的民中被剪除， 因为他没有在指定的时间内献上耶和华的供物， 那人必担当自己的罪。
14 如果有外人寄居在你们中间， 想要向耶和华守逾越节， 他就必须照着逾越节的条例和典章而行； 不论是外人或是本地人， 只有一样的条例。"
15 在竖立帐幕的那一天， 有云彩遮盖着帐幕， 就是法柜的帐幕； 到了晚上， 云彩在帐幕上， 形状像火， 直到早晨。
16 常常是这样： 白天有云彩遮盖帐幕， 夜间云彩形状像火。
17 云彩什么时候从会幕上收去， 以色列人就起行； 云彩在什么地方停住， 以色列人就在那里安营。
18 以色列人照着耶和华的吩咐起行， 也照着耶和华的吩咐安营； 云彩在帐幕上停留多久， 他们就安营多久。
19 如果云彩多日停留在帐幕上， 以色列人就遵守耶和华的吩咐， 不起行。
20 有时云彩停留在帐幕上只有几天， 他们就照着耶和华的吩咐安营； 也照着耶和华的吩咐起行。
21 有时云彩从晚上到早晨停住； 到了早晨， 云彩一收上去， 他们就起行； 有时云彩从白昼到晚上都停住； 云彩一收上去， 他们就起行。
22 云彩停留在帐幕上不论有多久， 或两天、或一月、或一年， 以色列人就安营， 不起行； 云彩一收上去， 他们就起行。
23 他们照着耶和华的吩咐安营， 也照着耶和华的吩咐起行。他们遵守耶和华吩咐的， 就是照着耶和华借摩西吩咐的。
