Numbers 9

1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, in the wilderness of Sinai, in the second year of their going out of the land of Egypt, in the first month, saying,

Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese ʻi he toafa ʻo Sainai, ʻi he ʻuluaki māhina ʻo hono ua taʻu hili ʻenau haʻu mei he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻo pehē,

2 “Also, the sons of Israel prepare the Passover in its appointed time;

“Tuku ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli kenau fai foki ʻae Lakaatu ʻi hono ngaahi ʻaho kuo kotofa.

3 in the fourteenth day of this month between the evenings you prepare it in its appointed time; you prepare it according to all its statutes and according to all its ordinances.”

‌ʻI hono ʻaho hongofulu ma fā ʻoe māhina ni, ʻi he efiafi, te mou fai ia ʻi hono ngaahi ʻaho kuo kotofa: ʻo fakatatau ki hono anga kotoa pē, pea te mou fai ia ʻo fakatatau ki hono tuʻutuʻuni kotoa pē.”

4 And Moses speaks to the sons of Israel to prepare the Passover,

Pea naʻe lea ʻa Mōsese ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, kenau fai ʻae Lakaatu.

5 and they prepare the Passover in the first [month], on the fourteenth day of the month, between the evenings, in the wilderness of Sinai; according to all that YHWH has commanded Moses, so the sons of Israel have done.

Pea naʻa nau fai ʻae Lakaatu ʻi hono ʻaho hongofulu ma fā ʻoe ʻuluaki māhina, ʻi he efiafi, ʻi he toafa ʻo Sainai: ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau kotoa pē ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, naʻe fai pehē ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.

6 And there are men who have been defiled by the body of a man, and they have not been able to prepare the Passover on that day, and they come near before Moses and before Aaron on that day,

Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae kau tangata niʻihi, naʻa nau taʻemaʻa ʻi he sino mate ʻo ha tangata, ko ia naʻe ʻikai ai tenau fai ʻae Lakaatu ʻi he ʻaho ko ia: pea naʻa nau haʻu ki he ʻao ʻo Mōsese mo ʻElone ʻi he ʻaho ko ia:

7 and those men say to him, “We are defiled by the body of a man; why are we withheld so as not to bring the offering of YHWH near in its appointed time, in the midst of the sons of Israel?”

Pea naʻe lea pehē ʻae kau tangata ko ia kiate ia, “ʻOku mau ʻuli ʻi he sino mate ʻoe tangata: ko e hā kuo taʻofi ai ʻakimautolu, ke ʻoua naʻa mau ʻatu ʻae feilaulau kia Sihova ʻi hono kuonga kuo kotofa ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli?”

8 And Moses says to them, “Stand, and I hear what YHWH has commanded concerning you.”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Mōsese kiate kinautolu, “Mou tatali, kaeʻoua ke u fanongo pe ko e hā ʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kiate kimoutolu.”

9 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia Mōsese, ʻo pehē,

10 “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, Though any man is unclean by a body or in a distant journey (of you or of your generations), he has still prepared a Passover to YHWH;

Ke ke lea ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, mo ke pehē, “Kapau ʻe taʻemaʻa ha tangata ʻiate kimoutolu pe ʻi homou hako koeʻuhi ko e sino mate, pea mo ia ʻoku fononga mamaʻo, ʻe fai pe ʻe ia ʻae Lakaatu kia Sihova.

11 they prepare it in the second month, on the fourteenth day, between the evenings; they eat it with unleavened and bitter things;

‌ʻI hono ʻaho hongofulu ma fā ʻo hono ua māhina ʻi he efiafi tenau fai ia, pea ʻe kai fakataha ia mo e mā taʻefakalēvani mo e ngaahi ʻakau kona.

12 they do not leave of [it] until morning; and they do not break a bone in it; they prepare it according to all the statute of the Passover.

‌ʻE ʻikai tenau tuku hono toe ki he ʻapongipongi, pe fesiʻi ha hui ʻi ai: tenau fai ia ʻo fakatatau ki he ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ʻoe Lakaatu.

13 And the man who is clean, and has not been on a journey, and has ceased to prepare the Passover, indeed, that person has been cut off from his people; because he has not brought the offering of YHWH near in its appointed time, that man bears his sin.

Ka ko e tangata ʻoku maʻa, pea ʻoku ʻikai fononga mamaʻo, pea ʻoku ʻikai fai ʻe ia ʻae laka-atu, ko e tangata ko ia ʻe tuʻusi mei hono kakai: koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻomi ʻae feilaulau ʻa Sihova ʻi hono ʻaho kuo kotofa; ʻe fua ʻe he tangata ko ia ʻa ʻene angahala.

14 And when a sojourner sojourns with you, then he has prepared a Passover to YHWH—according to the statute of the Passover and according to its ordinance, so he does; one statute is for you, indeed, for a sojourner and for a native of the land.”

“Pea kapau ʻe ʻāunofo ha muli ʻiate kimoutolu, pea fai ʻe ia ʻae Lakaatu kia Sihova; ʻe fakatatau ki he tuʻutuʻuni ʻoe Lakaatu, pea fakatatau ki hono anga, ʻe pehē ʻene fai: ko e fekau pe taha te mou maʻu ki he muli, pea mo ia ʻoku fanauʻi ʻi he fonua.”

15 And in the day of the raising up of the Dwelling Place, the cloud has covered the Dwelling Place, even the Tent of the Testimony; and in the evening there is as an appearance of fire on the Dwelling Place until morning;

Pea ʻi he ʻaho naʻe fokotuʻu ai ʻae fale fehikitaki naʻe ʻuʻufi ʻaki ʻae fale fehikitaki ʻae ʻao, ʻio, ko e fale fehikitaki ʻoe fakamoʻoni: pea naʻe ʻi he funga fale fehikitaki ʻi he efiafi ʻae meʻa ʻo hangē ko e afi, ʻo aʻu ki he pongipongi.

16 so it is continually; the cloud covers it, also the appearance of fire by night.

Naʻe pehē maʻuaipē: naʻe ʻuʻufi ʻaki ia ʻae ʻao ʻi he ʻaho, pea hangē ko e afi ʻi he pō.

17 And according to the going up of the cloud from off the tent, then afterward the sons of Israel journey; and in the place where the cloud dwells, there the sons of Israel encamp;

Pea ʻoka toʻo hake ʻae ʻao mei he fale fehikitaki, hili ia, naʻe fononga ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli: pea ko e potu naʻe tuʻu ai ʻae ʻao, ko ia naʻa nau fokotuʻu ai honau ngaahi fale fehikitaki.

18 by the command of YHWH the sons of Israel journey, and by the command of YHWH they encamp; all the days that the cloud dwells over the Dwelling Place they encamp.

Pea naʻe fononga atu ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova, pea nau nofo ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova: naʻa nau nofo ʻi honau ʻapitanga ʻo hangē ko hono fuoloa ʻoe nofo ʻae ʻao ʻi he funga fale fehikitaki.

19 And in the cloud prolonging itself over the Dwelling Place many days, then the sons of Israel have kept the charge of YHWH, and do not journey.

Pea ka tatali fuoloa ʻae ʻao ʻi he funga fale fehikitaki ʻo ʻaho lahi, naʻe fai ʻe he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ki he tauhi ʻo Sihova, pea naʻe ʻikai fononga.

20 And so when the cloud is over the Dwelling Place [for] a number of days: by the command of YHWH they encamp, and by the command of YHWH they journey.

Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi he nofo ʻae ʻao ʻi he funga fale fehikitaki ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho siʻi; ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Sihova naʻa nau nofo ʻi honau ʻapitanga, pea naʻa nau fononga ʻo fakatatau ki he fekau ʻa Sihova.

21 And so when the cloud is from evening until morning, when the cloud has gone up in the morning, then they have journeyed; whether by day or by night, when the cloud has gone up, then they have journeyed.

Pea naʻe pehē, ka tuʻu ʻae ʻao mei he efiafi ʻo aʻu ki he pongipongi, pea toki toʻo hake ʻae ʻao ʻi he pongipongi, naʻa nau fononga: ʻi he ʻaho pe ʻi he pō kuo toʻo hake ai ʻae ʻao naʻa nau fononga.

22 Whether two days, or a month, or days, in the cloud prolonging itself over the Dwelling Place, to dwell over it, the sons of Israel encamp and do not journey; and in its being lifted up they journey.

Pea kapau ko e ʻaho ʻe ua, pe taha māhina, pe taha taʻu, mo e tuʻu ʻae ʻao ʻi he funga fale fehikitaki, ʻo tuʻumaʻu ai, naʻe nofo ʻae fānau ʻa ʻIsileli ʻi honau ʻapitanga, pea naʻe ʻikai tenau fononga: pea ʻi hono toʻo hake ia naʻa nau fononga.

23 By the command of YHWH they encamp, and by the command of YHWH they journey; they have kept the charge of YHWH, by the command of YHWH in the hand of Moses.

Pea naʻa nau mālōlō ʻi honau ʻapitanga ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova, pea naʻa nau fononga ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova: naʻa nau fai ki he pule ʻa Sihova, ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova ʻi he nima ʻo Mōsese.
