1In the first month of the second year after [Israel] had come out of the land of Egypt, the LORD spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai: 1וַיְדַבֵּ֣ר יְהוָ֣ה אֶל־ מֹשֶׁ֣ה בְמִדְבַּר־ סִ֠ינַי בַּשָּׁנָ֨ה הַשֵּׁנִ֜ית לְצֵאתָ֨ם מֵאֶ֧רֶץ מִצְרַ֛יִם בַּחֹ֥דֶשׁ הָרִאשׁ֖וֹן לֵאמֹֽר׃
2“The Israelites are to observe the Passover at its appointed time. 2וְיַעֲשׂ֧וּ בְנֵי־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֛ל אֶת־ הַפָּ֖סַח בְּמוֹעֲדֽוֹ׃
3You are to observe it at the appointed time, at twilight on the fourteenth day of this month, in accordance with its statutes and ordinances.” 3בְּאַרְבָּעָ֣ה עָשָֽׂר־ י֠וֹם בַּחֹ֨דֶשׁ הַזֶּ֜ה בֵּ֧ין הָֽעֲרְבַּ֛יִם‪‬ תַּעֲשׂ֥וּ אֹת֖וֹ בְּמוֹעֲד֑וֹ כְּכָל־ חֻקֹּתָ֥יו וּכְכָל־ מִשְׁפָּטָ֖יו תַּעֲשׂ֥וּ אֹתֽוֹ׃
4So Moses told the Israelites to observe the Passover, 4וַיְדַבֵּ֥ר מֹשֶׁ֛ה אֶל־ בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל לַעֲשֹׂ֥ת הַפָּֽסַח׃
5and they [did so] in the Wilderness of Sinai, at twilight on the fourteenth day of the first month. The Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 5וַיַּעֲשׂ֣וּ אֶת־ הַפֶּ֡סַח בָּרִאשׁ֡וֹן בְּאַרְבָּעָה֩ עָשָׂ֨ר י֥וֹם לַחֹ֛דֶשׁ בֵּ֥ין הָעַרְבַּ֖יִם בְּמִדְבַּ֣ר סִינָ֑י כְּ֠כֹל אֲשֶׁ֨ר צִוָּ֤ה יְהוָה֙ אֶת־ מֹשֶׁ֔ה כֵּ֥ן עָשׂ֖וּ בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
6But there were some men who were unclean due to a dead body, so they could not observe the Passover on that day. And they came before Moses and Aaron that same day 6וַיְהִ֣י אֲנָשִׁ֗ים אֲשֶׁ֨ר הָי֤וּ טְמֵאִים֙ לְנֶ֣פֶשׁ אָדָ֔ם וְלֹא־ יָכְל֥וּ לַעֲשֹׂת־ הַפֶּ֖סַח בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֑וּא וַֽיִּקְרְב֞וּ לִפְנֵ֥י מֹשֶׁ֛ה וְלִפְנֵ֥י אַהֲרֹ֖ן בַּיּ֥וֹם הַהֽוּא׃
7and said to [Moses], “We are unclean because of a dead body, but why should we be excluded from presenting the LORD’s offering with the other Israelites at the appointed time?” 7וַ֠יֹּאמְרוּ הָאֲנָשִׁ֤ים הָהֵ֙מָּה֙ אֵלָ֔יו אֲנַ֥חְנוּ טְמֵאִ֖ים לְנֶ֣פֶשׁ אָדָ֑ם לָ֣מָּה נִגָּרַ֗ע לְבִלְתִּ֨י הַקְרִ֜ב אֶת־ קָרְבַּ֤ן יְהוָה֙ בְּמֹ֣עֲד֔וֹ בְּת֖וֹךְ בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
8“Wait here until I hear what the LORD commands concerning you,” Moses replied. 8וַיֹּ֥אמֶר אֲלֵהֶ֖ם מֹשֶׁ֑ה עִמְד֣וּ וְאֶשְׁמְעָ֔ה מַה־ יְצַוֶּ֥ה יְהוָ֖ה לָכֶֽם׃ פ
9Then the LORD said to Moses, 9וַיְדַבֵּ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה אֶל־ מֹשֶׁ֥ה לֵּאמֹֽר׃
10“Tell the Israelites: When any one of you or your descendants is unclean because of a dead body, or is away on a journey, he may still observe the Passover to the LORD. 10דַּבֵּ֛ר אֶל־ בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל לֵאמֹ֑ר אִ֣ישׁ אִ֣ישׁ כִּי־ יִהְיֶֽה־ טָמֵ֣א ׀ לָנֶ֡פֶשׁ אוֹ֩ בְדֶ֨רֶךְ רְחֹקָ֜הׄ‪‬ לָכֶ֗ם א֚וֹ לְדֹרֹ֣תֵיכֶ֔ם וְעָ֥שָׂה פֶ֖סַח לַיהוָֽה׃
11Such people are to observe it at twilight on the fourteenth day of the second month. They are to eat [the lamb], together with unleavened bread and bitter herbs; 11בַּחֹ֨דֶשׁ הַשֵּׁנִ֜י בְּאַרְבָּעָ֨ה עָשָׂ֥ר י֛וֹם בֵּ֥ין הָעַרְבַּ֖יִם יַעֲשׂ֣וּ אֹת֑וֹ עַל־ מַצּ֥וֹת וּמְרֹרִ֖ים יֹאכְלֻֽהוּ׃
12they may not leave any of it until morning or break any of its bones. They must observe the Passover according to all its statutes. 12לֹֽא־ יַשְׁאִ֤ירוּ מִמֶּ֙נּוּ֙ עַד־ בֹּ֔קֶר וְעֶ֖צֶם לֹ֣א יִשְׁבְּרוּ־ ב֑וֹ כְּכָל־ חֻקַּ֥ת הַפֶּ֖סַח יַעֲשׂ֥וּ אֹתֽוֹ׃
13But the man who is ceremonially clean, is not on a journey, and still fails to observe the Passover, is to be cut off from his people, because he did not present the LORD’s offering at its appointed time. That man will bear the consequences of his sin. 13וְהָאִישׁ֩ אֲשֶׁר־ ה֨וּא טָה֜וֹר וּבְדֶ֣רֶךְ לֹא־ הָיָ֗ה וְחָדַל֙ לַעֲשׂ֣וֹת הַפֶּ֔סַח וְנִכְרְתָ֛ה הַנֶּ֥פֶשׁ הַהִ֖וא מֵֽעַמֶּ֑יהָ כִּ֣י ׀ קָרְבַּ֣ן יְהוָ֗ה לֹ֤א הִקְרִיב֙ בְּמֹ֣עֲד֔וֹ חֶטְא֥וֹ יִשָּׂ֖א הָאִ֥ישׁ הַהֽוּא׃
14If a foreigner dwelling among you wants to observe the Passover to the LORD, he is to do so according to the Passover statute and its ordinances. You are to apply the same statute to both the foreigner and the native of the land.” 14וְכִֽי־ יָג֨וּר אִתְּכֶ֜ם גֵּ֗ר וְעָ֤שָֽׂה פֶ֙סַח֙ לַֽיהוָ֔ה כְּחֻקַּ֥ת הַפֶּ֛סַח וּכְמִשְׁפָּט֖וֹ כֵּ֣ן יַעֲשֶׂ֑ה חֻקָּ֤ה אַחַת֙ יִהְיֶ֣ה לָכֶ֔ם וְלַגֵּ֖ר וּלְאֶזְרַ֥ח הָאָֽרֶץ׃ פ
15On the day that the tabernacle, the Tent of the Testimony, was set up, the cloud covered [it] and appeared like fire above the tabernacle from evening until morning. 15וּבְיוֹם֙ הָקִ֣ים אֶת־ הַמִּשְׁכָּ֔ן כִּסָּ֤ה הֶֽעָנָן֙ אֶת־ הַמִּשְׁכָּ֔ן לְאֹ֖הֶל הָעֵדֻ֑ת וּבָעֶ֜רֶב יִהְיֶ֧ה עַֽל־ הַמִּשְׁכָּ֛ן כְּמַרְאֵה־ אֵ֖שׁ עַד־ בֹּֽקֶר׃
16It remained that way continually; the cloud would cover [the tabernacle] [by day], and at night it would appear like fire. 16כֵּ֚ן יִהְיֶ֣ה תָמִ֔יד הֶעָנָ֖ן יְכַסֶּ֑נּוּ וּמַרְאֵה־ אֵ֖שׁ לָֽיְלָה׃
17Whenever the cloud was taken up from above the Tent, the Israelites would set out, and wherever the cloud settled, there the Israelites would camp. 17וּלְפִ֞י הֵעָלֹ֤ת הֶֽעָנָן֙ מֵעַ֣ל הָאֹ֔הֶל וְאַ֣חֲרֵי־ כֵ֔ן יִסְע֖וּ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וּבִמְק֗וֹם אֲשֶׁ֤ר יִשְׁכָּן־ שָׁם֙ הֶֽעָנָ֔ן שָׁ֥ם יַחֲנ֖וּ בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
18At the LORD’s command the Israelites set out, and at the LORD’s command they camped. As long as the cloud remained over the tabernacle, they camped. 18עַל־ פִּ֣י יְהוָ֗ה יִסְעוּ֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וְעַל־ פִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה יַחֲנ֑וּ כָּל־ יְמֵ֗י אֲשֶׁ֨ר יִשְׁכֹּ֧ן הֶעָנָ֛ן עַל־ הַמִּשְׁכָּ֖ן יַחֲנֽוּ׃
19Even when the cloud lingered over the tabernacle for many days, the Israelites kept the LORD’s charge and did not set out. 19וּבְהַאֲרִ֧יךְ הֶֽעָנָ֛ן עַל־ הַמִּשְׁכָּ֖ן יָמִ֣ים רַבִּ֑ים וְשָׁמְר֧וּ בְנֵי־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֛ל אֶת־ מִשְׁמֶ֥רֶת יְהוָ֖ה וְלֹ֥א יִסָּֽעוּ׃
20Sometimes the cloud remained over the tabernacle for only a few days, and they would camp at the LORD’s command and set out at the LORD’s command. 20וְיֵ֞שׁ אֲשֶׁ֨ר יִהְיֶ֧ה הֶֽעָנָ֛ן יָמִ֥ים מִסְפָּ֖ר עַל־ הַמִּשְׁכָּ֑ן עַל־ פִּ֤י יְהוָה֙ יַחֲנ֔וּ וְעַל־ פִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה יִסָּֽעוּ׃
21Sometimes the cloud remained only from evening until morning, and when [it] lifted in the morning, they would set out. Whether [it was] by day or by night, when the cloud was taken up, they would set out. 21וְיֵ֞שׁ אֲשֶׁר־ יִהְיֶ֤ה הֶֽעָנָן֙ מֵעֶ֣רֶב עַד־ בֹּ֔קֶר וְנַעֲלָ֧ה הֶֽעָנָ֛ן בַּבֹּ֖קֶר וְנָסָ֑עוּ א֚וֹ יוֹמָ֣ם וָלַ֔יְלָה וְנַעֲלָ֥ה הֶעָנָ֖ן וְנָסָֽעוּ׃
22Whether [the cloud] lingered for two days, a month, or longer, the Israelites camped and did not set out as long as the cloud remained over the tabernacle; but when it was lifted, they would set out. 22אֽוֹ־ יֹמַ֜יִם אוֹ־ חֹ֣דֶשׁ אוֹ־ יָמִ֗ים בְּהַאֲרִ֨יךְ הֶעָנָ֤ן עַל־ הַמִּשְׁכָּן֙ לִשְׁכֹּ֣ן עָלָ֔יו יַחֲנ֥וּ בְנֵֽי־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל וְלֹ֣א יִסָּ֑עוּ וּבְהֵעָלֹת֖וֹ יִסָּֽעוּ׃
23They camped at the LORD’s command, and they set out at the LORD’s command; they carried out the LORD’s charge according to His command through Moses. 23עַל־ פִּ֤י יְהוָה֙ יַחֲנ֔וּ וְעַל־ פִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה יִסָּ֑עוּ אֶת־ מִשְׁמֶ֤רֶת יְהוָה֙ שָׁמָ֔רוּ עַל־ פִּ֥י יְהוָ֖ה בְּיַד־ מֹשֶֽׁה׃ פ
