1And Yahweh spake unto Moses in the desert of Sinai, in the second year by their coming forth out of the land of Egypt in the first month, saying: 2Let the sons of Israel therefore, keep the passover in its appointed season: 3on he fourteenth day of this month between the two evenings, shall ye keep it, in its appointed season,according to all the statute thereof and according to all the regulations thereof, shall ye keep it. 4Then spake Moses unto the sons of Israel that they should keep the passover. 5So they kept the passover in the first , on the fourteenth day of the month between the two evenings, in the desert of Sinai,according to all that Yahweh commanded Moses, so, did the sons of Israel. 6But so it was that there were, certain men who had become unclean by a dead person, and could not keep the passover on that day,therefore came they near before Moses and before Aaron on that day. 7Then said those men unto him, We, are unclean by a dead person,wherefore should we become of less esteem for want of offering the oblation of Yahweh in its appointed season, in the midst of the sons of Israel? 8And Moses said unto them,Stay, and let me hear, what Yahweh shall command concerning you! 9Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying: 10Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying,Though, any man, be unclean by a dead person or be on a journey afar off, whether in the case of yourselves or of your generations, yet shall he keep a passover unto Yahweh. 11In the second month, on the fourteenth day between the two evenings, shall they keep it,with unleavened cakes and bitter herbs, shall they eat it. 12They shall not leave thereof until morning, and no bone, shall they break thereinaccording to all the statutes of the passover, shall they keep it. 13But as for the man who is, clean, and no a journey, doth not chance to be and yet faileth to keep the passover, that person shall he cut off from among his kinsfolk,for the oblation of Yahweh, hath he not offered in its appointed season, his own sin, shall, that man, bear. 14When moreover there may sojourn with you a sojourner, who would keep a passover unto Yahweh, according to the statute of the passover, and according to the regulation thereof, so, must he keep 15Now, on the day the habitation was reared, the cloud covered the habitation, even the tent of the testimony,and in the evening, it was over the habitation, like an appearance of fire, until morning, 16Thus, came it to pass continually, the cloud, covered it,and an appearance of fire, by night; 17but at the bidding of the upgoings of the cloud from off the tent, then, after that, the sons of Israel set forward,and in the place where the cloud abode, there the sons of Israel encamped: 18at the bidding of Yahweh, the sons of Israel set forward, and at the bidding of Yahweh, they encamped,all the days that the cloud abode upon the habitation, they remained encamped. 19And when the cloud lengthened out its stay upon the habitation, many days, then would the sons of Israel keep the watch of Yahweh, and would not set forward. 20And, so it was, when the cloud would be a few days upon the habitation, at the bidding of Yahweh, they remained encamped, and at the bidding of Yahweh, they set forward. 21And, so it was, when the cloud would be from evening until morning, as soon as the cloud went up in the morning, so soon did they set forward: whether by day or by night, as soon as the cloud went up, so soon did they set forward. 22Whether for two days or a month or a year, the cloud lengthened out its stay upon the habitation abiding thereupon, the sons of Israel remained encamped and set not forward,but at the upgoings thereof, they set forward. 23At the bidding of Yahweh, they encamped, and at the bidding of Yahweh, they set forward,the watch of Yahweh, they kept, at the bidding of Yahweh by the hand of Moses.
