民數記 9
1 出埃及國後第二年正月，上主在西乃曠野吩咐梅瑟說：「
And the Lord spak to Moises, in the deseert of Synay, in the secounde yeer aftir that thei yeden out of the lond of Egipt, in the firste moneth,
2 以色列子民在定期內當舉行踰越節。
and seide, The sones of Israel make pask in his tyme,
3 於本月十四日黃昏時，在定期內舉行此節；應按一切規定和禮儀舉行。」
in the fourtenthe day of this monethe, at the euentid, bi alle the cerymonyes and iustifiyngis therof.
4 梅瑟遂號令以色列子民舉行踰越節。
And Moises comaundide to the sones of Israel, that thei schulden make pask;
5 他們就在正月十四日黃昏，於西乃曠野舉行了踰越節；上主怎樣吩咐了梅瑟，以色列子民就怎樣做了。
whiche maden in his tyme, in the fourtenthe dai of the monethe, at euentid, in the hil of Synai; bi alle thingis whiche the Lord comaundide to Moises, the sones of Israel diden.
6 但是，有些人因沾染了死人的不潔，不能在那一天舉行踰越節，就在那天來到梅瑟和亞郎前；
Lo! forsothe summen vncleene on the soule of man, that myyten not make pask in that dai, neiyiden to Moises and Aaron,
7 這些人對他說：「我們沾染了死人的不潔；為什麼我們就被拒絕，而不能在以色列子民中，於定期內奉獻上主供物﹖」
and seiden to hem, We ben vncleene `on the soule of man; whi ben we defraudid, that we moun not offre an offryng to the Lord in his tyme, among the sones of Israel?
8 梅瑟對他們說：「你們等一下，我去聽上主對你們有何吩咐。」
To whiche Moises answeride, Stonde ye, that Y take counseil, what the Lord comaundith of you.
9 上主吩咐梅瑟說：「
And the Lord spak to Moises, and seide,
10 你訓示以色列子民說：幾時你們中或你們後裔中，若有人沾了死人的不潔，或因到遠方旅行，仍要為上主舉行踰越節，
Speke thou to the sones of Israel, A man of youre folk which is vncleene `on the soule, ether in the weie fer, make he pask to the Lord in the secounde monethe,
11 應在二月十四日黃昏舉行，同時吃無酵餅和苦菜，
in the fourtenthe dai of the monethe, at euentid; with therf looues and letusis of the feeld he schal ete it.
12 不要剩下什麼到早晨，也不要折斷羔羊的骨頭：應全依照踰越節的規定舉行此節。
Thei schulen not leeue ony thing therof til the morewtid, and thei schulen not breke a boon therof; thei schulen kepe al the custom of pask.
13 但如有人是潔淨的，又不在旅行中，竟忽略了過踰越節，這人就應由民間剷除，因為他沒有在定期內奉獻上主供物，這人應自負罪債。
Forsothe if ony man is bothe cleene, and is not in the weie, and netheles made not pask, thilke man schal be distried fro hise puplis, for he offeride not sacrifice to the Lord in his tyme; he schal bere his synne.
14 至於與你們同住的僑民，若為上主舉行踰越節，應按照踰越節的規定和禮儀舉行；不論是僑民，或是本國公民，你們應守同樣的法律。」
Also if a pilgrym and comelyng is anentis you, make he pask to the Lord, bi the cerymonyes and iustifiyngis therof; the same comaundement schal be anentis you, as wel to a comelyng as to a man borun in the loond.
15 在豎立帳幕那一天，有雲彩遮蓋了帳幕，即會幕；到晚上雲彩停在帳幕上，形狀似火，直到早晨。
Therfore in the dai in which the tabernacle was reisid, a cloude hilide it; sotheli as the licnesse of fier was on the tente fro euentid til the morewtid.
16 白天有雲彩遮蓋，夜間雲彩形狀似火：常是如此。
Thus it was don continueli, a cloude hilide it bi dai, and as the licnesse of fier bi nyyt.
17 幾時雲彩由帳幕上升起，以色列子民隨即起程；雲彩在那裏停住了，以色列子民就在那裏紮營。
And whanne the cloude that hilide the tabernacle was takun awei, thanne the sones of Israel yeden forth, and in the place where the cloude stood, there thei settiden tentis.
18 以色列子民照上主的命令起程，亦照上主的命令紮營：雲彩停留在帳幕上幾日，他們就幾日紮營不動。
At the comaundement of the Lord thei yeden forth, and at his comaundement thei settiden the tabernacle. In alle daies in whiche the cloude stood on the tabernacle, thei dwelliden in the same place.
19 雲彩若多日停留在帳幕上，以色列子民就遵照上主的命令，不移營前行。
And if it bifelde that it dwellide in myche tyme on the tabernacle, the sones of Israel weren in the watchis of the Lord, and thei yeden not forth,
20 有時雲彩只數日停留在帳幕上，他們就依照上主的命令紮營不動，並依照上主的命令起程。
in hou many euer daies the cloude was on the tabernacle. At the comaundement of the Lord thei reisiden tentis, and at his comaundement thei diden doun.
21 有時雲彩從晚上到早晨停住，一到早晨就上升，他們就隨之起程；或者一日一夜以後纔上升，他們也隨之起程。
If the cloude was fro euentid `til to the morewtid, and anoon in the morewtid hadde left, thei yeden forth; and if aftir a dai and nyyt it hadde go awei, thei scateriden, `ether diden doun, tentis.
22 如雲彩兩日或一月，或一年停留在帳幕上，無論停留多久，以色列子民也就安營不動多久；只在雲彩上升時，方起程前行。
Whether in two monethis, ether in o monethe, ether in lengere tyme, `the cloude hadde be on the tabernacle, the sones of Israel dwelliden in the same place, and yeden not forth; but anoon as it hadde go awey, thei moueden tentis.
23 他們依照上主的命令紮營，依照上主的命令起程；他們全照上主藉梅瑟所吩咐的，遵守上主的訓示。
Bi the word of the Lord thei settiden tentis, and bi his word thei wenten forth; and thei weren in the watchis of the Lord, bi his comaundement, bi the hond of Moyses.
