اَلْعَدَد 9
| وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى فِي بَرِّيَّةِ سِينَاءَ، فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ لِخُرُوجِهِمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ قَائِلًا: | ١ 1 |
The Lord spoke to Moses in the Sinai desert in the first month of the second year after Israel had left Egypt. He told him,
| «وَلْيَعْمَلْ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْفِصْحَ فِي وَقْتِهِ. | ٢ 2 |
“The Israelites are to keep the Passover at its designated time.
| فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلرَّابِعَ عَشَرَ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلشَّهْرِ بَيْنَ ٱلْعَشَاءَيْنِ تَعْمَلُونَهُ فِي وَقْتِهِ. حَسَبَ كُلِّ فَرَائِضِهِ وَكُلِّ أَحْكَامِهِ تَعْمَلُونَهُ». | ٣ 3 |
Observe it at the time required—in the evening after sunset on the fourteenth day of this month, and do so in accordance with its rules and regulations.”
| فَكَلَّمَ مُوسَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنْ يَعْمَلُوا ٱلْفِصْحَ. | ٤ 4 |
Moses told the Israelites to observe the Passover.
| فَعَمِلُوا ٱلْفِصْحَ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلرَّابِعَ عَشَرَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ بَيْنَ ٱلْعَشَاءَيْنِ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ سِينَاءَ، حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى هَكَذَا فَعَلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٥ 5 |
So they kept the Passover in the Sinai desert, beginning in the evening after sunset on the fourteenth day of the first month. The Israelites followed all the instructions the Lord had given to Moses.
| لَكِنْ كَانَ قَوْمٌ قَدْ تَنَجَّسُوا لِإِنْسَانٍ مَيْتٍ، فَلَمْ يَحِلَّ لَهُمْ أَنْ يَعْمَلُوا ٱلْفِصْحَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ. فَتَقَدَّمُوا أَمَامَ مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، | ٦ 6 |
However, there were some men who were unclean because they had been contact with a dead body, so they could not keep the Passover on that day. They went to see Moses and Aaron the same day
| وَقَالَ لَهُ أُولَئِكَ ٱلنَّاسُ: «إِنَّنَا مُتَنَجِّسُونَ لِإِنْسَانٍ مَيِّتٍ. لِمَاذَا نُتْرَكُ حَتَّى لَا نُقَرِّبَ قُرْبَانَ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي وَقْتِهِ بَيْنَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ؟» | ٧ 7 |
and explained to Moses, “We are unclean because of a dead body, but why should that mean we're prevented from giving our offering to the Lord with the other Israelites at the appropriate time?”
| فَقَالَ لَهُمْ مُوسَى: «قِفُوا لِأَسْمَعَ مَا يَأْمُرُ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ جِهَتِكُمْ». | ٨ 8 |
“Stay here while I find out what the Lord's instructions are concerning you,” Moses responded.
| فَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا: | ٩ 9 |
The Lord told Moses,
| «كَلِّمْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ مِنْكُمْ أَوْ مِنْ أَجْيَالِكُمْ كَانَ نَجِسًا لِمَيْتٍ، أَوْ فِي سَفَرٍ بَعِيدٍ، فَلْيَعْمَلِ ٱلْفِصْحَ لِلرَّبِّ. | ١٠ 10 |
“Tell the Israelites: ‘If you or your descendants are unclean because of a dead body, or are away traveling, you can still keep the Lord's Passover.
| فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّانِي، فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلرَّابِعَ عَشَرَ بَيْنَ ٱلْعَشَاءَيْنِ يَعْمَلُونَهُ. عَلَى فَطِيرٍ وَمُرَارٍ يَأْكُلُونَهُ. | ١١ 11 |
You are to observe it in the evening after sunset on the fourteenth day of the second month. You are to eat the lamb with the bread made without yeast, and the bitter herbs.
| لَا يُبْقُوا مِنْهُ إِلَى ٱلصَّبَاحِ وَلَا يَكْسِرُوا عَظْمًا مِنْهُ. حَسَبَ كُلِّ فَرَائِضِ ٱلْفِصْحِ يَعْمَلُونَهُ. | ١٢ 12 |
You must not leave any of it until the following morning and you must not break any of its bones. You must observe the Passover according to all the regulations.
| لَكِنْ مَنْ كَانَ طَاهِرًا وَلَيْسَ فِي سَفَرٍ، وَتَرَكَ عَمَلَ ٱلْفِصْحِ، تُقْطَعُ تِلْكَ ٱلنَّفْسُ مِنْ شَعْبِهَا، لِأَنَّهَا لَمْ تُقَرِّبْ قُرْبَانَ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي وَقْتِهِ. ذَلِكَ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ يَحْمِلُ خَطِيَّتَهُ. | ١٣ 13 |
However, anyone ceremonially clean and not away traveling who neglects to observe the Passover must be expelled from their people, because they didn't present the Lord's offering at the appropriate time. They will bear the responsibility for the consequences of their sin.
| وَإِذَا نَزَلَ عِنْدَكُمْ غَرِيبٌ فَلْيَعْمَلْ فِصْحًا لِلرَّبِّ. حَسَبَ فَرِيضَةِ ٱلْفِصْحِ وَحُكْمِهِ كَذَلِكَ يَعْمَلُ. فَرِيضَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ تَكُونُ لَكُمْ لِلْغَرِيبِ وَلِوَطَنِيِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ». | ١٤ 14 |
Any foreigners living among you who want to observe the Lord's Passover can do so following the Passover rules and regulations. The same rules apply to the foreigners as they do to you.’”
| وَفِي يَوْمِ إِقَامَةِ ٱلْمَسْكَنِ، غَطَّتِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ ٱلْمَسْكَنَ، خَيْمَةَ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ. وَفِي ٱلْمَسَاءِ كَانَ عَلَى ٱلْمَسْكَنِ كَمَنْظَرِ نَارٍ إِلَى ٱلصَّبَاحِ. | ١٥ 15 |
The cloud covered the Tent of the Testimony (the Tabernacle) on the day that it was set up, and looked like fire above it from evening until the morning.
| هَكَذَا كَانَ دَائِمًا. ٱلسَّحَابَةُ تُغَطِّيهِ وَمَنْظَرُ ٱلنَّارِ لَيْلًا. | ١٦ 16 |
It was always like this. The cloud covered the Tabernacle during the day and at night it looked like fire.
| وَمَتَى ٱرْتَفَعَتِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ عَنِ ٱلْخَيْمَةِ كَانَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ يَرْتَحِلُونَ، وَفِي ٱلْمَكَانِ حَيْثُ حَلَّتِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ هُنَاكَ كَانَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ يَنْزِلُونَ. | ١٧ 17 |
When the cloud rose from over the Tent, the Israelites would move on, and where the cloud stopped, the Israelites would set up camp there.
| حَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ كَانَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ يَرْتَحِلُونَ، وَحَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ كَانُوا يَنْزِلُونَ. جَمِيعَ أَيَّامِ حُلُولِ ٱلسَّحَابَةِ عَلَى ٱلْمَسْكَنِ كَانُوا يَنْزِلُونَ. | ١٨ 18 |
The Israelites moved on when the Lord told them to, and set up camp when the Lord told them to. While the cloud stayed over the Tabernacle, they remained camped there.
| وَإِذَا تَمَادَتِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ عَلَى ٱلْمَسْكَنِ أَيَّامًا كَثِيرَةً كَانَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ يَحْرُسُونَ حِرَاسَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَلَا يَرْتَحِلُونَ. | ١٩ 19 |
Even if the cloud didn't move for a long time, the Israelites did what the Lord told them and didn't move on.
| وَإِذَا كَانَتِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ أَيَّامًا قَلِيلَةً عَلَى ٱلْمَسْكَنِ، فَحَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ كَانُوا يَنْزِلُونَ، وَحَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ كَانُوا يَرْتَحِلُونَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Sometimes the cloud only stayed over the Tabernacle for a few days. As always they followed the Lord's command as to whether to camp or to move on.
| وَإِذَا كَانَتِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ مِنَ ٱلْمَسَاءِ إِلَى ٱلصَّبَاحِ، ثُمَّ ٱرْتَفَعَتِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ فِي ٱلصَّبَاحِ، كَانُوا يَرْتَحِلُونَ. أَوْ يَوْمًا وَلَيْلَةً ثُمَّ ٱرْتَفَعَتِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ كَانُوا يَرْتَحِلُونَ. | ٢١ 21 |
Sometimes the cloud only stayed overnight, so when it rose in the morning they would move on. Whenever the cloud rose, day or night, they would leave.
| أَوْ يَوْمَيْنِ أَوْ شَهْرًا أَوْ سَنَةً، مَتَى تَمَادَتِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ عَلَى ٱلْمَسْكَنِ حَالَّةً عَلَيْهِ، كَانَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ يَنْزِلُونَ وَلَا يَرْتَحِلُونَ. وَمَتَى ٱرْتَفَعَتْ كَانُوا يَرْتَحِلُونَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
If the cloud stayed in one place for two days, or a month, or longer, the Israelites stayed where they were and didn't leave as long as the cloud remained over the Tabernacle. However, once it rose, they would leave.
| حَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ كَانُوا يَنْزِلُونَ، وَحَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ كَانُوا يَرْتَحِلُونَ. وَكَانُوا يَحْرُسُونَ حِرَاسَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ حَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ بِيَدِ مُوسَى. | ٢٣ 23 |
They camped when the Lord told them to, and left when he told them to. They followed the Lord's instructions that he gave to Moses.
