1.    And Jehovah spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in  the first month of the second year after their departure from  the land of Egypt, saying,
 
2.    Let the children of Israel also hold the passover at its set  time;
 
3.    on the fourteenth day in this month between the two  evenings, ye shall hold it at its set time; according to all  the rites of it, and according to all the ordinances thereof  shall ye hold it.
 
4.    And Moses spoke to the children of Israel, that they should  hold the passover.
 
5.    And they held the passover in the first month on the  fourteenth day of the month, between the two evenings, in the  wilderness of Sinai: according to all that Jehovah had  commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel.
 
6.    And there were men, who were unclean through the dead body  of a man, and could not hold the passover on that day; and they  came before Moses and before Aaron on that day.
 
7.    And those men said to him, We are unclean by reason of the  dead body of a man: why are we kept back, that we may not  present the offering of Jehovah at its set time among the  children of Israel?
 
8.    And Moses said to them, Stay, and I will hear what Jehovah  commands concerning you.
 
9.    And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
 
10.    Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any one of  you or of your generations be unclean by reason of a dead body  or be on a journey afar off, yet he shall hold the passover to  Jehovah.
 
11.    In the second month, on the fourteenth day, between the two  evenings, shall they hold it; with unleavened bread and bitter  herbs shall they eat it.
 
12.    They shall leave none of it until the morning, nor break a  bone thereof: according to every ordinance of the passover  shall they hold it.
 
13.    But a man that is clean, and is not on a journey, and  forbeareth to hold the passover, that soul shall be cut off  from among his peoples; because he presented not the offering  of Jehovah at its set time: that man shall bear his sin.
 
14.    And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and would hold  the passover to Jehovah, according to the rite of the passover,  and according to the ordinance thereof, so shall he do. Ye  shall have one rite, both for the stranger and for him that is  born in the land.
 
15.    And on the day that the tabernacle was set up, the cloud  covered the tabernacle of the tent of testimony; and at even it  was upon the tabernacle as the appearance of fire, until the  morning.
 
16.    So it was continually: the cloud covered it, and at night  it was as the appearance of fire.
 
17.    And when the cloud rose from the tent, then the children of  Israel journeyed; and at the place where the cloud stood still,  there the children of Israel encamped.
 
18.    According to the commandment of Jehovah the children of  Israel journeyed, and according to the commandment of Jehovah  they remained encamped; all the days that the cloud dwelt  upon the tabernacle they encamped.
 
19.    And when the cloud was long upon the tabernacle many days,  then the children of Israel kept the charge of Jehovah, and  journeyed not.
 
20.    And if it were so that the cloud was a few days upon the  tabernacle, according to the commandment of Jehovah they  encamped, and according to the commandment of Jehovah they  journeyed.
 
21.    And if it were so that the cloud was there from the evening  until the morning, and that the cloud was taken up in the  morning, then they journeyed; or a day and a night, and the  cloud was taken up, they journeyed;
 
22.    or two days, or a month, or many days, when the cloud was  long upon the tabernacle, dwelling upon it, the children of  Israel remained encamped, and journeyed not; but when it was  taken up, they journeyed.
 
23.    At the commandment of Jehovah they encamped, and at the  commandment of Jehovah they journeyed: they kept the charge of  Jehovah according to the commandment of Jehovah through Moses.
