< Numbers 9 >
1 One year after the Israelis left Egypt, during the month of March, while they were in the Sinai Desert, Yahweh said to Moses/me,
OLELO mai la o Iehova ia Mose ma ka waonahele o Sinai, i ka malama mua o ka lua o ka makahiki, mahope o ko lakou puka ana mailoko mai o ka aina o Aigupita, i mai la,
2 “Tell the Israeli people that they must celebrate the Passover [Festival again].
E malama na mamo a Iseraela i ka moliaola i kona manawa i kauohaia'i.
3 They must do it on the fourteenth day of this month, early in the evening, and they must obey all the instructions about it [that I gave you previously].”
I ka la umikumamaha o keia malama, i ke ahiahi, e malama oukou ia i kona manawa i kauohaia'i: e like me na kanawai a pau nona, a e like hoi me na oihana a pau nana, ka oukou e malama ai ia.
4 So Moses/I told the people what Yahweh had said about celebrating the Passover.
Olelo aku la hoi o Mose i na mamo a Iseraela, e malama lakou i ka moliaola.
5 The people celebrated it, there in the Sinai Desert, in the evening of the fourteenth day of the month, just as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
A malama no lakou i ka moliaola i ka la umikumamaha o ka malama mua, i ke ahiahi, ma ka waonahele o Sinai: e like me na mea a pau a Iehova i kauoha mai ai ia Mose, pela na mamo a Iseraela i hana'i.
6 But some of the Israeli people had touched a corpse, and as a result they had become unfit to celebrate the Passover. So they asked Aaron and Moses/me,
A o kekahi mau kanaka, ua haumia lakou i ke kupapau o ke kanaka, a pono ole ia lakou ke malama i ka moliaola ia la: a hele mai lakou imua o Mose, a imua o Aarona ia la.
7 “It is true that we have touched a corpse. But why should that prevent us from celebrating the Passover Festival and offering sacrifices to Yahweh like everyone else [RHQ]?”
I mai la ua mau kanaka la ia ia, Ua haumia makou i ke kupapau o ke kanaka: no ke aha la i keakeaia'i makou, i ole e kaumaha aku ai makou i mohai na Iehova i kona manawa i kauohaia'i me na mamo a Iseraela!
8 Moses/I replied, “Wait here until I go into the Sacred Tent and find out what Yahweh says about it.”
I aku la o Mose ia lakou, E ku malie oukou, a lohe au i ka mea a Iehova e kauoha mai ai no oukou.
9 [So Moses/I went into the tent and asked Yahweh what he/I should tell the people], and this is what Yahweh said:
Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Mose, i mai la,
10 “Tell this to the Israeli people: If any of you or your descendants touch a corpse and as a result become unacceptable to me, or if you are away from home on a long trip [at the time to celebrate the Passover], you will still be permitted to celebrate it.
E olelo aku oe i na mamo a Iseraela, i ka i ana, Ina he haumia ko kekahi kanaka o oukou a o ka oukou poe mamo paha, i ke kupapau, a ua moamao aku paha ia i ka hele ana, e malama no hoi ia i ka moliaola no Iehova.
11 But you must celebrate it exactly one month later, early in the evening of the fourteenth day of that month. Eat the meat of the lamb for the Passover Festival with bread that is baked without yeast and eat bitter herbs.
I ka la umikumamaha, o ka lua o ka malama, i ke ahiahi, e malama lakou ia mea, e ai hoi lakou ia me ka berena hu ole, a me na lau mulea.
12 Do not leave any of it until the next morning. And do not break any of the lamb’s bones. Obey all the regulations about celebrating the Passover.
Aole lakou e waiho i kanwahi o ia mea, a ao, aole hoi e uhai i kekahi iwi ona: ma na kanawai a pau no ka moliaola ka lakou e malama ai ia.
13 But if any of you has not done anything that would make you unfit to celebrate the Passover Festival, and you are not away from home on a long trip, and you do not sacrifice to me at the proper time, you will no longer be allowed to associate with my people. (You will be punished/I will punish you).
Aka, o ke kanaka haumia ole, aole hoi i hala i ka hele ana, a ua malama ole i ka moliaola, e hookiia'ku oia mai kona poe kanaka aku; no ka mea, aole ia i lawe mai i ka mohai na Iehova i kona manawa i kauohaia'i; e lawe ia kanaka i kona hewa iho.
14 Foreigners who live among you may also celebrate the Passover Festival, if they obey all my commands concerning it.”
Ina hoi e noho ana kekahi malihini me oukou, a ua makemake ia e malama i ka moliaola no Iehova; e like me ke kanawai no ka moliaola, a e like hoi me kona oihana, pela no ia e hana'i: i hookahi no kanawai ia oukou no ka malihini, a no ka mea i hanau ma ka aina.
15 On the day that the Sacred Tent was set up, a cloud covered it. From the time that the sun set until the time that the sun rose [the next day], the cloud resembled a [huge] fire. And that is what happened every day [that we/the Israelis were in the desert].
I ka la i kukuluia'i, ka halelewa, uhi iho la ke ao maluna o ka halelewa, ma ke keena o ke kanawai; a ahiahi, ua ikea ka mea me he ahi la maluna o ka halelewa a hiki i kakahiaka.
A pela mau no: uhi mai la keao ia in, a i ka po ua ikea ka mea me he ahi la.
17 When the cloud rose up and started to move [to a new location], we/they followed it. When the cloud stopped, we/the Israelis stopped there and set up their tents.
A i ka manawa i pii ai ke ao mailuna ae o ka halelewa, ma ia hope iho, haele aku la na mamo a Iseraela: a ma kahi i ku malie ai ke ao, malaila na mamo a Iseraela i hoomoana ai.
18 We/They traveled when Yahweh, [by causing the cloud to move or stop], signaled to us/them when to move and when to stop. When the cloud stayed over the Sacred Tent, we/the Israelis stayed at that place.
Ma ke kauoha a Iehova i hele ai na mamo a Iseraela, a ma ke kauoha a Iehova i hoomoaua ai lakou: i na la a pau i ku malie ai ke ao maluna o ka halelewa, noho iho la lakou ma na halelole o lakou.
19 Sometimes the cloud stayed over the tent for a long time, so when that happened, we/they did not travel.
Aia ku liuliu iho la ke ao maluna o ka halelewa a nui na la, alaila malama na mamo a Iseraela i ka oihana a Iehova, aole no i hele aku.
20 Sometimes the cloud remained over the tent for only a few days. We/The people stopped and set up our/their tents as Yahweh commanded us/them, and we/they traveled [to a new location] when Yahweh commanded us/them to do that.
A i ka wa i ku malie ai ke ao maluna o ka halelewa a uuku na la; e like me ke kauoha ana a Iehova i noho ai lakou ma ko lakou mau halelole, a e like me ke kauoha ana mai a Iehova i haele ai lakou.
21 Sometimes the cloud stayed in one place for only one day. When that happened, when the cloud rose up [into the sky] the next morning, then we/they traveled. Whenever the cloud moved, during the day or during the night, we/they traveled.
A i ka wa i noho ai ke ao mai ke ahiahi a hiki i kakahiaka, a pii ae la ke ao i kakahiaka, alaila, haele lakou: ina ma ke ao paha, ma ka po paha i pii ae ke ao, haele no lakou.
22 If the cloud stayed over the Sacred Tent for two days, or for a month, or for a year, during that time we/they stayed where we/they were. But when the cloud rose up [into the sky], we/they started to travel.
Ina hoi i noho ke ao maluna o ka halelewa i na la elua, i ka malama paha, a i ka makahiki paha, e kau ana malaila, noho iho la na mamo a Iseraela iloko o ko lakou mau halelole, aole lakou i hele: aia i ka wa i pii ae ia, hele lakou.
23 When Yahweh commanded us/them to [stop and] set up our/their tents, we/they did that. When he told us/them to move, we/they moved. We/They did whatever Yahweh told Moses/me that we/they should do.
Ma ke kauoha a Iehova i noho ai lakou, iloko o ko lakou mau halelole, a ma ke kauoha ana a Iehova i haele ai lakou: malama no lakou i ka oihana a Iehova ma ke kauoha a Iehova, i ka lima o Mose.
