Numbers 9:6-11

New King James Version

⁶ Now there were certain men who were ^(A)defiled by a human corpse, so that they could not keep the Passover on that day; ^(B)and they came before Moses and Aaron that day. ⁷ And those men said to him, “We became defiled by a human corpse. Why are we kept from presenting the offering of the Lord at its appointed time among the children of Israel?”

⁸ And Moses said to them, “Stand still, that ^(C)I may hear what the Lord will command concerning you.”

⁹ Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, ¹⁰ “Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘If anyone of you or your ^[a]posterity is unclean because of a corpse, or is far away on a journey, he may still keep the Lord’s Passover. ¹¹ On ^(D)the fourteenth day of the second month, at twilight, they may keep it. They shall ^(E)eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
