1 And the LORD spake unto Moses in the wilder­ness of Sinai, in the first month of the sec­ond year af­ter they were come out of the land of Egypt, say­ing, 2 Let the chil­dren of Is­rael also keep the passover at his ap­point­ed sea­son. 3 In the four­teenth day of this month, at even, ye shall keep it in his ap­point­ed sea­son: ac­cord­ing to all the rites of it, and ac­cord­ing to all the cer­e­monies there­of, shall ye keep it. 4 And Moses spake unto the chil­dren of Is­rael, that they should keep the passover. 5 And they kept the passover on the four­teenth day of the first month at even in the wilder­ness of Sinai: ac­cord­ing to all that the LORD com­mand­ed Moses, so did the chil­dren of Is­rael. 6 And there were cer­tain men, who were de­filed by the dead body of a man, that they could not keep the passover on that day: and they came be­fore Moses and be­fore Aaron on that day: 7 And those men said unto him, We are de­filed by the dead body of a man: where­fore are we kept back, that we may not of­fer an of­fer­ing of the LORD in his ap­point­ed sea­son among the chil­dren of Is­rael? 8 And Moses said unto them, Stand still, and I will hear what the LORD will com­mand con­cern­ing you. 9 And the LORD spake unto Moses, say­ing, 10 Speak unto the chil­dren of Is­rael, say­ing, If any man of you or of your pos­ter­i­ty shall be un­clean by rea­son of a dead body, or be in a jour­ney afar off, yet he shall keep the passover unto the LORD. 11 The four­teenth day of the sec­ond month at even they shall keep it, and eat it with un­leav­ened bread and bit­ter herbs. 12 They shall leave none of it unto the morn­ing, nor break any bone of it: ac­cord­ing to all the or­di­nances of the passover they shall keep it. 13 But the man that is clean, and is not in a jour­ney, and for­beareth to keep the passover, even the same soul shall be cut off from among his peo­ple: be­cause he brought not the of­fer­ing of the LORD in his ap­point­ed sea­son, that man shall bear his sin. 14 And if a stranger shall so­journ among you, and will keep the passover unto the LORD; ac­cord­ing to the or­di­nance of the passover, and ac­cord­ing to the man­ner there­of, so shall he do: ye shall have one or­di­nance, both for the stranger, and for him that was born in the land. 15 And on the day that the taber­na­cle was reared up the cloud cov­ered the taber­na­cle, namely, the tent of the tes­ti­mo­ny: and at even there was upon the taber­na­cle as it were the ap­pear­ance of fire, un­til the morn­ing. 16 So it was al­way: the cloud cov­ered it ­by day, and the ap­pear­ance of fire by night. 17 And when the cloud was tak­en up from the taber­na­cle, then af­ter that the chil­dren of Is­rael jour­neyed: and in the place where the cloud abode, there the chil­dren of Is­rael pitched their tents. 18 At the com­mand­ment of the LORD the chil­dren of Is­rael jour­neyed, and at the com­mand­ment of the LORD they pitched: as long as the cloud abode upon the taber­na­cle they rest­ed in their tents. 19 And when the cloud tar­ried long upon the taber­na­cle many days, then the chil­dren of Is­rael kept the charge of the LORD, and jour­neyed not. 20 And so it was, when the cloud was a few days upon the taber­na­cle; ac­cord­ing to the com­mand­ment of the LORD they abode in their tents, and ac­cord­ing to the com­mand­ment of the LORD they jour­neyed. 21 And so it was, when the cloud abode from even unto the morn­ing, and that the cloud was tak­en up in the morn­ing, then they jour­neyed: whether it was by day or by night that the cloud was tak­en up, they jour­neyed. 22 Or whether it were two days, or a month, or a year, that the cloud tar­ried upon the taber­na­cle, re­main­ing there­on, the chil­dren of Is­rael abode in their tents, and jour­neyed not: but when it was tak­en up, they jour­neyed. 23 At the com­mand­ment of the LORD they rest­ed in the tents, and at the com­mand­ment of the LORD they jour­neyed: they kept the charge of the LORD, at the com­mand­ment of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
