Numbers 9
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,
以色列人出埃及地以後，第二年正月，耶和華在西奈的曠野吩咐摩西說：
2 Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at his appointed season.
「以色列人應當在所定的日期守逾越節，
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.
就是本月十四日黃昏的時候，你們要在所定的日期守這節，要按這節的律例典章而守。」
4 And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, that they should keep the passover.
於是摩西吩咐以色列人守逾越節。
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.
他們就在西奈的曠野，正月十四日黃昏的時候，守逾越節。凡耶和華所吩咐摩西的，以色列人都照樣行了。
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:
有幾個人因死屍而不潔淨，不能在那日守逾越節。當日他們到摩西、亞倫面前，
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?
說：「我們雖因死屍而不潔淨，為何被阻止、不得同以色列人在所定的日期獻耶和華的供物呢？」
8 And Moses said unto them, Stand still, and I will hear what the LORD will command concerning you.
摩西對他們說：「你們暫且等候，我可以去聽耶和華指着你們是怎樣吩咐的。」
9 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
耶和華對摩西說：
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.
「你曉諭以色列人說：你們和你們後代中，若有人因死屍而不潔淨，或在遠方行路，還要向耶和華守逾越節。
11 The fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep it, [and] eat it with unleavened bread and bitter [herbs].
他們要在二月十四日黃昏的時候，守逾越節。要用無酵餅與苦菜，和逾越節的羊羔同吃。
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.
一點不可留到早晨；羊羔的骨頭一根也不可折斷。他們要照逾越節的一切律例而守。
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.
那潔淨而不行路的人若推辭不守逾越節，那人要從民中剪除；因為他在所定的日期不獻耶和華的供物，應該擔當他的罪。
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.
若有外人寄居在你們中間，願意向耶和華守逾越節，他要照逾越節的律例典章行，不管是寄居的是本地人，同歸一例。」
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.
立起帳幕的那日，有雲彩遮蓋帳幕，就是法櫃的帳幕；從晚上到早晨，雲彩在其上，形狀如火。
16 So it was alway: the cloud covered it [by day], and the appearance of fire by night.
常是這樣，雲彩遮蓋帳幕，夜間形狀如火。
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.
雲彩幾時從帳幕收上去，以色列人就幾時起行；雲彩在哪裏停住，以色列人就在那裏安營。
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.
以色列人遵耶和華的吩咐起行，也遵耶和華的吩咐安營。雲彩在帳幕上停住幾時，他們就住營幾時。
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.
雲彩在帳幕上停留許多日子，以色列人就守耶和華所吩咐的不起行。
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.
有時雲彩在帳幕上幾天，他們就照耶和華的吩咐住營，也照耶和華的吩咐起行。
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.
有時從晚上到早晨，有這雲彩在帳幕上；早晨雲彩收上去，他們就起行。有時晝夜雲彩停在帳幕上，收上去的時候，他們就起行。
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.
雲彩停留在帳幕上，無論是兩天，是一月，是一年，以色列人就住營不起行；但雲彩收上去，他們就起行。
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.
他們遵耶和華的吩咐安營，也遵耶和華的吩咐起行。他們守耶和華所吩咐的，都是憑耶和華吩咐摩西的。
