< Numbers 9 >

1 The Lord spoke to Moses in the desert of Sinai, in the second year after they departed from the land of Egypt, in the first month, saying:
Egypt khohmuen lamloh a coe uh phoeikah a kum bae hla lamhma vaengah, BOEIPA loh Moses te Sinai khosoek ah a voek tih,
2 “Let the sons of Israel observe the Passover at its proper time,
Israel ca rhoek loh amah khoning vaengah Yoom te saii saeh.
3 on the fourteenth day of this month, in the evening, according to all of its ceremonies and justifications.”
Tahae hlasae kah hnin hlai li hlaem vaengah saii uh. Te te amah khotue vaengah a khosing cungkuem neh a tiktamnah cungkuem bangla saii uh,” a ti nah.
4 And Moses instructed the sons of Israel, so that they would observe the Passover.
Te dongah Yoom saii ham te Moses loh Israel ca rhoek taengah a thui pah.
5 And they observed it at its proper time: on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, at mount Sinai. The sons of Israel acted according to all the things that the Lord had commanded Moses.
Te dongah Yoom te lamhmacuek la hlasae hnin hlai li hlaem ah tah Sinai khosoek ah a saii uh. A cungkuem dongah BOEIPA loh Moses a uen bangla Israel ca rhoek loh a saii uh van.
6 But behold, certain ones, who were not able to observe the Passover on that day, being unclean because of the life of a man, approaching Moses and Aaron,
Hlang hinglu lamloh rhalawt la aka om hlang rhoek khaw om. Te dongah te khohnin ah Yoom saii uh thai pawh. Tedae amah khohnin ah Moses mikhmuh neh Aaron mikhmuh la tawn uh.
7 said to them: “We are unclean because of the life of a man. Why have we been cheated, in that we are not permitted to offer, at its proper time, the oblation to the Lord among the sons of Israel?”
Te kah hlang rhoek loh a taengah, “Kaimih he hlang kah hinglu kongah ka rhalawt uh. Balae tih amah khoning vaengah Israel ca lakli ah BOEIPA kah nawnnah te khuen pawt ham n'hloh uh?” a ti uh.
8 And Moses responded to them: “Remain, so that I may consult the Lord, as to what he will rule about you.”
Moses loh amih te, “Om uh lamtah BOEIPA loh nangmih ham ng'uen te ka hnatung dae eh,” a ti nah.
9 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh Moses te a voek tih,
10 “Say to the sons of Israel: The man who becomes unclean because of a life, or if he is on a distant journey within your nation, let him observe the Passover to the Lord.
“Israel ca rhoek te thui pah. Hlang pakhat he hinglu kongah rhalawt la a om vaengah khaw, khola longpueng ah khaw, namah neh na caldilcahma loh thui pah lamtah BOEIPA kah Yoom te saii saeh.
11 In the second month, on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, they shall eat it with unleavened bread and wild lettuce.
Te te a hla bae dongkah hnin hlai li hlaem ah saii uh saeh lamtah vaidamding te ankhaa neh hmaeh uh saeh.
12 They shall not leave behind any of it until morning, and they shall not break a bone of it; they shall observe all the rituals of the Passover.
Te te mincang hil paih uh boel saeh. A rhuh khaw paep sak uh boel saeh lamtah a cungkuem dongah Yoom kah khosing bangla saii uh saeh.
13 But if any man was both clean, and not on a journey, and yet he did not observe the Passover, that soul shall be exterminated from among his people, because he did not offer the sacrifice to the Lord in its time. He shall bear his sin.
Tedae hlang te tuicil tih longpueng ah khaw om pawt dae Yoom saii ham a toeng atah a pilnam lamloh a hinglu thup pah kangna saeh. Amah khoning ah BOEIPA kah nawnnah te a khuen pawt dongah te kah hlang te amah tholhnah amah loh phuei saeh.
14 Likewise, the sojourner and the newcomer, if they are among you, shall observe the Passover to the Lord according to its ceremonies and justifications. The same precept shall be with you, as much for the newcomer as for the native.”
Nangmih taengah yinlai bakuep mai cakhaw Yoom kah khosing neh a rhimong bangla BOEIPA kah Yoom te saii saeh. A saii vaengah a khosing te nangmih ham neh yinlai ham khaw, khohmuen mupoe ham khaw pakhat la om saeh,” a ti nah.
15 And so, on the day when the tabernacle was raised, a cloud covered it. But over the tabernacle, from evening until morning, there was, as it seemed, the appearance of fire.
Dungtlungim a thoh hnin ah cingmai loh dungtlungim kah laipainah dap te a khuk. Te vaengah hlaemhmah lamloh mincang hil dungtlungim dongah hmai kah mueimae bangla tueng.
16 This was so continually: throughout the day a cloud covered it, and throughout the night, the appearance of fire.
Cingmai loh phueih a khuk vaengah tah khoyin ah hmai kah a mueimae la tueng.
17 And when the cloud that was protecting the tabernacle had been taken up, then the sons of Israel advanced forward, and in the place where the cloud had remained standing, there they made camp.
Cingmai te dap so lamloh nong ham ka a ong phoei daengah ni Israel ca rhoek khaw a hlah uh. Tedae cingmai duem nah hmuen ah Israel ca rhoek khaw pahoi rhaeh uh.
18 Upon the order of the Lord they advanced, and upon his order they fixed the tabernacle. All the days during which the cloud was standing over the tabernacle, they remained in the same place.
Israel ca rhoek te BOEIPA kah olka dongah cet uh tih BOEIPA olka dongah rhaeh uh. Cingmai te dungtlungim soah a duem hnin boeih ah amih khaw rhaeh uh.
19 And if it happened that it remained for a long time over it, the sons of Israel kept the night watches of the Lord, and they did not advance,
Cingmai loh dungtlungim soah khohnin a yet a uelh vaengah tah Israel ca rhoek loh BOEIPA kah a kuek te a ngaithuen uh tih cet uh voel pawh.
20 during as many days as the cloud remained over the tabernacle. At the command of the Lord they raised their tents, and at his command they took them down.
Cingmai te dungtlungim dongah khohnin kolkalh om cakhaw BOEIPA olka dongah rhaeh uh tih BOEIPA olka dongah cet uh.
21 If the cloud remained from evening until morning, and immediately, at first light, it left the tabernacle, they set out. And if it withdrew after a day and a night, they dismantled their tents.
Cingmai te hlaem lamloh mincang hil om tih mincang ah khaw cingmai te a thoeih daengah ni a caeh uh. Khothaih neh khoyin ah khaw cingmai a caeh vaengah cet uh van.
22 Yet truly, whether it remained over the tabernacle for two days, or one month, or a longer time, the sons of Israel remained in the same place, and they did not set out. Then, as soon as it withdrew, they moved the camp.
Khohnin neh hla neh kum neh dungtlungim soah cingmai te uelh. A soah a om vaengah tah Israel ca rhoek te rhaeh uh tih cet uh pawh. Tedae a thoeih daengah ni a caeh uh.
23 By the word of the Lord they fixed their tents, and by his word they advanced. And they kept the night watches of the Lord, according to his command by the hand of Moses.
BOEIPA kah olka dongah rhaeh uh tih BOEIPA kah olka dongah cet uh. BOEIPA kah a kuek tah Moses kut dongkah BOEIPA olka te a ngaithuen uh.
