民数记 9
1 以色列人出埃及地以后，第二年正月，耶和华在西奈的旷野吩咐摩西说：
And Jehovah spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after their departure from the land of Egypt, saying,
2 “以色列人应当在所定的日期守逾越节，
Let the children of Israel also hold the passover at its set time;
3 就是本月十四日黄昏的时候，你们要在所定的日期守这节，要按这节的律例典章而守。”
on the fourteenth day in this month between the two evenings, ye shall hold it at its set time; according to all the rites of it, and according to all the ordinances thereof shall ye hold it.
4 于是摩西吩咐以色列人守逾越节。
And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they should hold the passover.
5 他们就在西奈的旷野，正月十四日黄昏的时候，守逾越节。凡耶和华所吩咐摩西的，以色列人都照样行了。
And they held the passover in the first [month] on the fourteenth day of the month, between the two evenings, in the wilderness of Sinai: according to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel.
6 有几个人因死尸而不洁净，不能在那日守逾越节。当日他们到摩西、亚伦面前，
And there were men, who were unclean through the dead body of a man, and could not hold the passover on that day; and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day.
7 说：“我们虽因死尸而不洁净，为何被阻止、不得同以色列人在所定的日期献耶和华的供物呢？”
And those men said to him, We are unclean by reason of the dead body of a man: why are we kept back, that we may not present the offering of Jehovah at its set time among the children of Israel?
8 摩西对他们说：“你们暂且等候，我可以去听耶和华指着你们是怎样吩咐的。”
And Moses said to them, Stay, and I will hear what Jehovah commands concerning you.
9 耶和华对摩西说：
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
10 “你晓谕以色列人说：你们和你们后代中，若有人因死尸而不洁净，或在远方行路，还要向耶和华守逾越节。
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any one of you or of your generations be unclean by reason of a dead body or be on a journey afar off, yet he shall hold the passover to Jehovah.
11 他们要在二月十四日黄昏的时候，守逾越节。要用无酵饼与苦菜，和逾越节的羊羔同吃。
In the second month, on the fourteenth day, between the two evenings, shall they hold it; with unleavened bread and bitter herbs shall they eat it.
12 一点不可留到早晨；羊羔的骨头一根也不可折断。他们要照逾越节的一切律例而守。
They shall leave none of it until the morning, nor break a bone thereof: according to every ordinance of the passover shall they hold it.
13 那洁净而不行路的人若推辞不守逾越节，那人要从民中剪除；因为他在所定的日期不献耶和华的供物，应该担当他的罪。
But a man that is clean, and is not on a journey, and forbeareth to hold the passover, that soul shall be cut off from among his peoples; because he presented not the offering of Jehovah at its set time: that man shall bear his sin.
14 若有外人寄居在你们中间，愿意向耶和华守逾越节，他要照逾越节的律例典章行，不管是寄居的是本地人，同归一例。”
And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and would hold the passover to Jehovah, according to the rite of the passover, and according to the ordinance thereof, so shall he do. Ye shall have one rite, both for the stranger and for him that is born in the land.
15 立起帐幕的那日，有云彩遮盖帐幕，就是法柜的帐幕；从晚上到早晨，云彩在其上，形状如火。
And on the day that the tabernacle was set up, the cloud covered the tabernacle of the tent of testimony; and at even it was upon the tabernacle as the appearance of fire, until the morning.
16 常是这样，云彩遮盖帐幕，夜间形状如火。
So it was continually: the cloud covered it, and at night it was as the appearance of fire.
17 云彩几时从帐幕收上去，以色列人就几时起行；云彩在哪里停住，以色列人就在那里安营。
And when the cloud rose from the tent, then the children of Israel journeyed; and at the place where the cloud stood still, there the children of Israel encamped.
18 以色列人遵耶和华的吩咐起行，也遵耶和华的吩咐安营。云彩在帐幕上停住几时，他们就住营几时。
According to the commandment of Jehovah the children of Israel journeyed, and according to the commandment of Jehovah they [remained] encamped; all the days that the cloud dwelt upon the tabernacle they encamped.
19 云彩在帐幕上停留许多日子，以色列人就守耶和华所吩咐的不起行。
And when the cloud was long upon the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the charge of Jehovah, and journeyed not.
20 有时云彩在帐幕上几天，他们就照耶和华的吩咐住营，也照耶和华的吩咐起行。
And if it were so that the cloud was a few days upon the tabernacle, according to the commandment of Jehovah they encamped, and according to the commandment of Jehovah they journeyed.
21 有时从晚上到早晨，有这云彩在帐幕上；早晨云彩收上去，他们就起行。有时昼夜云彩停在帐幕上，收上去的时候，他们就起行。
And if it were so that the cloud was there from the evening until the morning, and that the cloud was taken up in the morning, then they journeyed; or a day and a night, and the cloud was taken up, they journeyed;
22 云彩停留在帐幕上，无论是两天，是一月，是一年，以色列人就住营不起行；但云彩收上去，他们就起行。
or two days, or a month, or many days, when the cloud was long upon the tabernacle, dwelling upon it, the children of Israel [remained] encamped, and journeyed not; but when it was taken up, they journeyed.
23 他们遵耶和华的吩咐安营，也遵耶和华的吩咐起行。他们守耶和华所吩咐的，都是凭耶和华吩咐摩西的。
At the commandment of Jehovah they encamped, and at the commandment of Jehovah they journeyed: they kept the charge of Jehovah according to the commandment of Jehovah through Moses.
