Numbers 9 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Num 9:1The LORD spoke to Moshe in the wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they had come out of the land of Mitzrayim, saying,
Num 9:2"Moreover let the children of Yisra'el keep the Pesach in its appointed season.
Num 9:3On the fourteenth day of this month, at evening, you shall keep it in its appointed season-- according to all its statutes, and according to all its ordinances, you shall keep it."
Num 9:4Moshe spoke to the children of Yisra'el, that they should keep the Pesach.
Num 9:5They kept the Pesach in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the wilderness of Sinai. According to all that the LORD commanded Moshe, so the children of Yisra'el did.
Num 9:6There were certain men, who were unclean because of the dead body of a man, so that they could not keep the Pesach on that day, and they came before Moshe and before Aharon on that day.
Num 9:7Those men said to him, "We are unclean because of the dead body of a man. Why are we kept back, that we may not offer the offering of the LORD in its appointed season among the children of Yisra'el?"
Num 9:8Moshe answered them, "Wait, that I may hear what the LORD will command concerning you."
Num 9:9The LORD spoke to Moshe, saying,
Num 9:10"Say to the children of Yisra'el, 'If any man of you or of your generations is unclean by reason of a dead body, or is on a journey far away, he shall still keep the Pesach to the LORD.
Num 9:11In the second month, on the fourteenth day at evening they shall keep it; they shall eat it with matzah and bitter herbs.
Num 9:12They shall leave none of it until the morning, nor break a bone of it. According to all the statute of the Pesach they shall keep it.
Num 9:13But the man who is clean, and is not on a journey, and fails to keep the Pesach, that soul shall be cut off from his people. Because he didn't offer the offering of the LORD in its appointed season, that man shall bear his sin.
Num 9:14If a foreigner lives among you, and desires to keep the Pesach to the LORD; according to the statute of the Pesach, and according to its ordinance, so shall he do. You shall have one statute, both for the foreigner, and for him who is born in the land.'"

The Cloud on the Tabernacle

Num 9:15On the day that the tabernacle was raised up, the cloud covered the tabernacle, even the Tent of the Testimony: and at evening it was over the tabernacle as it were the appearance of fire, until morning.
Num 9:16So it was continually. The cloud covered it, and the appearance of fire by night.
Num 9:17Whenever the cloud was taken up from over the Tent, then after that the children of Yisra'el traveled; and in the place where the cloud remained, there the children of Yisra'el encamped.
Num 9:18At the mitzvah of the LORD, the children of Yisra'el traveled, and at the mitzvah of the LORD they encamped. As long as the cloud remained on the tabernacle they remained encamped.
Num 9:19When the cloud stayed on the tabernacle many days, then the children of Yisra'el kept the charge of the LORD, and didn't travel.
Num 9:20Sometimes the cloud was a few days on the tabernacle; then according to the mitzvah of the LORD they remained encamped, and according to the mitzvah of the LORD they traveled.
Num 9:21Sometimes the cloud was from evening until morning; and when the cloud was taken up in the morning, they traveled: or by day and by night, when the cloud was taken up, they traveled.
Num 9:22Whether it was two days, or a month, or a year that the cloud stayed on the tabernacle, remaining on it, the children of Yisra'el remained encamped, and didn't travel; but when it was taken up, they traveled.
Num 9:23At the mitzvah of the LORD they encamped, and at the mitzvah of the LORD they traveled. They kept the charge of the LORD, at the mitzvah of the LORD by Moshe.
