< Nomery 9 >
1 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy tany an-efitr’ i Sinay tamin’ ny volana voalohany tamin’ ny taona faharoa taorian’ ny nivoahany avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta ka nanao hoe:
In the first month of the second year after Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, the LORD spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai:
2 Aoka hotandreman’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely ny Paska amin’ ny fotoany.
“The Israelites are to observe the Passover at its appointed time.
3 Amin’ ny harivan’ ny andro fahefatra ambin’ ny folo amin’ ity volana ity no hitandremanareo azy amin’ ny fotoany; araka ny didy sy ny fanao rehetra aminy no hitandremanareo azy.
You are to observe it at the appointed time, at twilight on the fourteenth day of this month, in accordance with its statutes and ordinances.”
4 Ary Mosesy niteny tamin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely mba hitandrina ny Paska.
So Moses told the Israelites to observe the Passover,
5 Dia nitandrina ny Paska tany an-efitr’ i Sinay izy tamin’ ny harivan’ ny andro fahefatra ambin’ ny folo tamin’ ny volana voalohany; araka izay rehetra efa nandidian’ i Jehovah an’ i Mosesy no nataon’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
and they did so in the Wilderness of Sinai, at twilight on the fourteenth day of the first month. The Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
6 Ary nisy olona sasany izay naloto tamim-paty ka tsy nahazo nitandrina ny Paska tamin’ izany andro izany; dia nankeo anatrehan’ i Mosesy sy Arona izy tamin’ izany andro izany
But there were some men who were unclean due to a dead body, so they could not observe the Passover on that day. And they came before Moses and Aaron that same day
7 ka nanao taminy hoe: Maloto tamim-paty izahay, ka nahoana no sakanana tsy hiaraka amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely hanatitra ny fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah amin’ ny fotoany?
and said to Moses, “We are unclean because of a dead body, but why should we be excluded from presenting the LORD’s offering with the other Israelites at the appointed time?”
8 Fa hoy Mosesy taminy: Andraso aloha, fa hanontaniako izay handidian’ i Jehovah ny aminareo.
“Wait here until I find out what the LORD commands concerning you,” Moses replied.
9 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Mosesy ka nanao hoe:
Then the LORD said to Moses,
10 Mitenena amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely hoe: Raha misy olona eo aminareo, na eo amin’ ny taranakareo hatramin’ ny fara mandimby, maloto amim-paty, na lasan-davitra, dia mbola hitandrina ny Paska ho an’ i Jehovah ihany koa izy.
“Tell the Israelites: ‘When any one of you or your descendants is unclean because of a dead body, or is away on a journey, he may still observe the Passover to the LORD.
11 Amin’ ny harivan’ ny andro fahefatra ambin’ ny folo amin’ ny volana faharoa no hitandremany azy; ary hampiarahina amin’ ny mofo tsy misy masirasira sy ny anana mangidy no fihinany azy.
Such people are to observe it at twilight on the fourteenth day of the second month. They are to eat the lamb, together with unleavened bread and bitter herbs;
12 Aza avela hasiany sisa ho tra-maraina, ary aza avela hisy hotapahiny ny taolany; araka ny lalàna rehetra ny amin’ ny Paska ihany koa no hitandremany azy.
they may not leave any of it until morning or break any of its bones. They must observe the Passover according to all its statutes.
13 Fa ny olona izay madio sady tsy lasan-davitra, nefa tsy mety mitandrina ny Paska, dia hofongorana tsy ho amin’ ny fireneny, satria tsy nanatitra ny fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny fotoany izy; ho meloka izany olona izany.
But if a man who is ceremonially clean and is not on a journey still fails to observe the Passover, he must be cut off from his people, because he did not present the LORD’s offering at its appointed time. That man will bear the consequences of his sin.
14 Ary raha misy mivahiny eo aminareo ka mba te-hitandrina ny Paska ho an’ i Jehovah, dia araka ny didy sy ny fanao amin’ ny Paska ihany no hanaovany azy; lalàna iray ihany no ho aminareo, na vahiny, na tompon-tany.
If a foreigner dwelling among you wants to observe the Passover to the LORD, he is to do so according to the Passover statute and its ordinances. You are to apply the same statute to both the foreigner and the native of the land.’”
15 Ary tamin’ ny andro izay nananganana ny tabernakely ny rahona dia nanarona ny tabernakely, dia ny trano-lain’ ny Vavolombelona; ary nony hariva dia niseho teo ambonin’ ny tabernakely tahaka ny afo izy mandra-pahamarain’ ny andro.
On the day that the tabernacle, the Tent of the Testimony, was set up, the cloud covered it and appeared like fire above the tabernacle from evening until morning.
16 Dia toy izany mandrakariva izy: ny rahona nanarona azy, nefa niseho tahaka ny afo izy nony alina.
It remained that way continually; the cloud would cover the tabernacle by day, and at night it would appear like fire.
17 Ary rehefa niakatra niala tamin’ ny tranolay ny rahona, dia niainga ny Zanak’ Isiraely, ka teo amin’ izay nijanonan’ ny rahona no nitobiany.
Whenever the cloud was lifted from above the Tent, the Israelites would set out, and wherever the cloud settled, there the Israelites would camp.
18 Araka ny didin’ i Jehovah no niaingan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely, ary araka ny didin’ i Jehovah koa no nitobiany; tamin’ ny andro rehetra izay nijanonan’ ny rahona teo ambonin’ ny tabernakely no nitobiany.
At the LORD’s command the Israelites set out, and at the LORD’s command they camped. As long as the cloud remained over the tabernacle, they remained encamped.
19 Ary na dia nijanona ela teo ambonin’ ny tabernakely aza ny rahona, dia nitandrina izay nasain’ i Jehovah notandremana ihany ny Zanak’ Isiraely ka tsy niainga.
Even when the cloud lingered over the tabernacle for many days, the Israelites kept the LORD’s charge and did not set out.
20 Fa indraindray kosa dia andro vitsy ihany no nijanonan’ ny rahona teo ambonin’ ny tabernakely; araka ny didin’ i Jehovah ihany no nitobiany, ary araka ny didin’ i Jehovah no niaingany.
Sometimes the cloud remained over the tabernacle for only a few days, and they would camp at the LORD’s command and set out at the LORD’s command.
21 Ary indraindray kosa dia nijanona hatramin’ ny hariva ka hatramin’ ny maraina ihany ny rahona, ary raha niakatra izy nony maraina, dia niainga ny Zanak’ Isiraely; koa na andro na alina no niakaran’ ny rahona, dia niainga izy.
Sometimes the cloud remained only from evening until morning, and when it lifted in the morning, they would set out. Whether it was by day or by night, when the cloud was taken up, they would set out.
22 Ary na indroa andro, na iray volana, na ela aza, no nijanonan’ ny rahona teo ambonin’ ny tabernakely dia mbola nitoby ihany ny Zanak’ Isiraely, fa tsy niainga; fa raha niakatra kosa ny rahona, dia niainga izy.
Whether the cloud lingered for two days, a month, or longer, the Israelites camped and did not set out as long as the cloud remained over the tabernacle; but when it was lifted, they would set out.
23 Araka ny didin’ i Jehovah no nitobiany, ary araka ny didin’ i Jehovah no niaingany; nitandrina izay nasain’ i Jehovah notandremany izy, araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah izay nampitondrainy an’ i Mosesy.
They camped at the LORD’s command, and they set out at the LORD’s command; they carried out the LORD’s charge according to His command through Moses.
