RNKJV - Numbers - 9

9:1  And יהוה 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,

9:2  Let the children of Israel also keep the passover at his appointed season.

9:3  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.

9:4  And Moses spake unto the children of Israel, that they should keep the passover.

9:5  And they kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month at even in the wilderness of Sinai: according to all that יהוה commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel.

9:6  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:

9:7  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 יהוה in his appointed season among the children of Israel?

9:8  And Moses said unto them, Stand still, and I will hear what יהוה will command concerning you.

9:9  And יהוה spake unto Moses, saying,

9:10  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 יהוה.

9:11  The fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep it, and eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.

9:12  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.

9:13  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 יהוה in his appointed season, that man shall bear his sin.

9:14  And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the passover unto יהוה; 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.

9:15  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.

9:16  So it was alway: the cloud covered it by day, and the appearance of fire by night.

9:17  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.

9:18  At the commandment of יהוה the children of Israel journeyed, and at the commandment of יהוה they pitched: as long as the cloud abode upon the tabernacle they rested in their tents.

9:19  And when the cloud tarried long upon the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the charge of יהוה, and journeyed not.

9:20  And so it was, when the cloud was a few days upon the tabernacle; according to the commandment of יהוה they abode in their tents, and according to the commandment of יהוה they journeyed.

9:21  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.

9:22  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.

9:23  At the commandment of יהוה they rested in the tents, and at the commandment of יהוה they journeyed: they kept the charge of יהוה, at the commandment of יהוה by the hand of Moses.
