And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, in the wilderness of Sinai, in the second year of their going out of the land of Egypt, in the first month, saying,

`Also, the sons of Israel prepare the passover in its appointed season;

in the fourteenth day of this month between the evenings ye prepare it in its appointed season; according to all its statutes, and according to all its ordinances ye prepare it.'

And Moses speaketh unto the sons of Israel to prepare the passover,

and they prepare the passover in the first [month], on the fourteenth day of the month, between the evenings, in the wilderness of Sinai; according to all that Jehovah hath commanded Moses, so have the sons of Israel done.

And there are men who have been defiled by the body of a man, and they have not been able to prepare the passover on that day, and they come near before Moses, and before Aaron, on that day,

and those men say unto him, `We are defiled by the body of a man; why are we withheld so as not to bring near the offering of Jehovah in its appointed season, in the midst of the sons of Israel?'

And Moses saith unto them, `Stand ye, and I hear what Jehovah hath commanded concerning you.'

And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

10 `Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, Though any man is unclean by a body or in a distant journey (of you or of your generations), yet he hath prepared a passover to Jehovah;

11 in the second month, on the fourteenth day, between the evenings they prepare it; with unleavened and bitter things they eat it;

12 they do not leave of till morning; and a bone they do not break in it: according to all the statute of the passover they prepare it.

13 `And the man who is clean, and hath not been on a journey, and hath ceased to prepare the passover, even that person hath been cut off from his people; because the offering of Jehovah he hath not brought near, in its appointed season, that man doth bear his sin.

14 `And when a sojourner sojourneth with you, then he hath prepared a passover to Jehovah, according to the statute of the passover, and according to its ordinance, so he doth; one statute is to you, even to a sojourner, and to a native of the land.'

15 And in the day of the raising up of the tabernacle hath the cloud covered the tabernacle, even the tent of the testimony; and in the evening there is on the tabernacle as an appearance of fire till morning;

16 so it is continually; the cloud covereth it, also the appearance of fire by night.

17 And according to the going up of the cloud from off the tent and afterwards do the sons of Israel journey; and in the place where the cloud doth tabernacle, there do the sons of Israel encamp;

18 by the command of Jehovah the sons of Israel journey, and by the command of Jehovah they encamp; all the days that the cloud doth tabernacle over the tabernacle they encamp.

19 And in the cloud prolonging itself over the tabernacle many days, then have the sons of Israel kept the charge of Jehovah, and journey not,

20 and so when the cloud is a number of days over the tabernacle; by the command of Jehovah they encamp, and by the command of Jehovah they journey.

21 And so when the cloud is from evening till morning, when the cloud hath gone up in the morning, then they have journeyed; whether by day or by night, when the cloud hath gone up, then they have journeyed.

22 Whether two days, or a month, or days, in the cloud prolonging itself over the tabernacle, to tabernacle over it, the sons of Israel encamp, and journey not; and in its being lifted up they journey;

23 by the command of Jehovah they encamp, and by the command of Jehovah they journey; the charge of Jehovah they have kept, by the command of Jehovah in the hand of Moses.

Nang unang buwan ng ikalawang taon, mula nang inilabas ang mga Israelita sa Egipto, sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises doon sa disyerto ng Sinai, “Ipagdiriwang ng mga Israelita ang Pista ng Paglampas ng Anghel sa nakatakdang panahon. Simula sa paglubog ng araw sa ika-14 na araw ng buwang ito, kailangang sundin ninyo ang lahat ng tuntunin tungkol sa pistang ito.”

Kaya sinabihan ni Moises ang mga Israelita na ipagdiwang ang Pista ng Paglampas ng Anghel, at sinunod nila ito roon sa disyerto ng Sinai nang lumubog ang araw nang ika-14 na araw ng unang buwan. Ginawa ito ng lahat ng mga Israelita ayon sa iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises.

Pero may iba sa kanila na hindi nakapagdiwang ng Pistang ito dahil nang araw na iyon, itinuturing silang marumi dahil nakahipo sila ng patay. Kaya nang mismong araw na iyon, pumunta sila kina Moises at Aaron at sinabi nila, “Naging marumi kami dahil nakahipo kami ng patay, pero bakit ba hindi kami pinapayagan sa pagdiriwang ng pistang ito at sa pag-aalay ng mga handog sa Panginoon kasama ng ibang mga Israelita sa naitakdang panahon?” Sumagot si Moises sa kanila, “Maghintay muna kayo hanggang sa malaman ko kung ano ang iuutos ng Panginoon sa akin tungkol sa inyo.”

Sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, 10 “Sabihin mo sa mga Israelita na kahit sino sa kanila o sa kanilang mga lahi na naging marumi dahil sa paghipo ng patay o dahil bumiyahe siya sa malayo, makakapagdiwang pa rin siya ng Pista ng Paglampas ng Anghel. 11 Ipagdiriwang nila ito pagkalipas ng isang buwan, simula sa paglubog ng araw sa ika-14 na araw ng ikalawang buwan. Kakain sila ng tupa kasama ng tinapay na walang pampaalsa at ng mapait na halaman. 12 Kailangang wala silang iiwanang pagkain kinaumagahan, at hindi rin nila babaliin ang mga buto ng tupa. Kung magdiriwang sila ng Pista ng Paglampas ng Anghel, kailangang sundin ang lahat ng mga tuntunin tungkol dito.

13 “Pero ang tao na hindi nagdiwang ng Pista ng Paglampas ng Anghel, kahit na itinuturing pa siyang malinis at hindi bumiyahe sa malayo, ang taong iyon ay huwag na ninyong ituring na kababayan, dahil hindi siya nag-alay ng handog para sa Panginoon sa nakatakdang panahon. Magdurusa siya sa kanyang kasalanan.

14 “Kung may dayuhan na naninirahang kasama ninyo na gustong makipagdiwang ng Pista ng Paglampas ng Anghel, kailangang ipagdiwang niya ito ayon sa lahat ng mga tuntunin nito. Magkapareho lang ang mga tuntunin para sa mga katutubong Israelita at sa mga dayuhan.”

Ang Ulap sa Toldang Tipanan(A)

15 Nang araw na ipinatayo ang Toldang Sambahan na tinatawag ding Toldang Tipanan, natakpan ito ng ulap. Ang ulap na ito ay nagliliwanag na parang apoy mula gabi hanggang umaga. 16 Ganito palagi ang nangyayari – ang ulap ay bumabalot sa Toldang Tipanan kung araw at nagliliwanag naman ito na parang apoy kung gabi. 17 Kapag pumapaitaas na ang ulap, umaalis na rin ang mga Israelita at nagpapatuloy sa kanilang paglalakbay, at kung saan tumitigil ang ulap, doon sila nagkakampo. 18 Kaya naglalakbay at nagkakampo ang mga Israelita ayon sa utos ng Panginoon. Hindi sila naglalakbay habang nasa ibabaw pa ng Tolda ang ulap. 19 Kahit magtagal ang ulap sa ibabaw ng Tolda, naghihintay lang sila sa utos ng Panginoon at hindi sila umaalis. 20 Kung minsan, mga ilang araw lang ang ulap sa ibabaw ng Tolda, kaya nananatili rin doon ang mga tao ng ilang araw. Pagkatapos, aalis ulit sila ayon sa utos ng Panginoon. 21 Kung minsan namaʼy nananatili lang ang ulap sa ibabaw ng Tolda ng isang gabi at pumapaitaas na ito kinaumagahan, at nagpapatuloy sila sa paglalakbay. Araw man o gabi, naglalakbay ang mga Israelita sa tuwing pumapaitaas ang ulap. 22 Kung nananatili ang ulap sa ibabaw ng Tolda ng dalawang araw o isang buwan o isang taon, ganoon din katagal nananatili ang mga Israelita sa kanilang kampo. 23 Kaya nagkakampo at naglalakbay ang mga Israelita ayon sa utos ng Panginoon. At sinunod nila ang mga utos ng Panginoon sa pamamagitan ni Moises.

The Passover

The Lord spoke to Moses in the Desert of Sinai in the first month(A) of the second year after they came out of Egypt.(B) He said, “Have the Israelites celebrate the Passover(C) at the appointed time.(D) Celebrate it at the appointed time, at twilight on the fourteenth day of this month,(E) in accordance with all its rules and regulations.(F)

So Moses told the Israelites to celebrate the Passover,(G) and they did so in the Desert of Sinai(H) at twilight on the fourteenth day of the first month.(I) The Israelites did everything just as the Lord commanded Moses.(J)

But some of them could not celebrate the Passover on that day because they were ceremonially unclean(K) on account of a dead body.(L) So they came to Moses and Aaron(M) that same day and said to Moses, “We have become unclean because of a dead body, but why should we be kept from presenting the Lord’s offering with the other Israelites at the appointed time?(N)

Moses answered them, “Wait until I find out what the Lord commands concerning you.”(O)

Then the Lord said to Moses, 10 “Tell the Israelites: ‘When any of you or your descendants are unclean because of a dead body(P) or are away on a journey, they are still to celebrate(Q) the Lord’s Passover, 11 but they are to do it on the fourteenth day of the second month(R) at twilight. They are to eat the lamb, together with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.(S) 12 They must not leave any of it till morning(T) or break any of its bones.(U) When they celebrate the Passover, they must follow all the regulations.(V) 13 But if anyone who is ceremonially clean and not on a journey fails to celebrate the Passover, they must be cut off from their people(W) for not presenting the Lord’s offering at the appointed time. They will bear the consequences of their sin.

14 “‘A foreigner(X) residing among you is also to celebrate the Lord’s Passover in accordance with its rules and regulations. You must have the same regulations for both the foreigner and the native-born.’”

The Cloud Above the Tabernacle

15 On the day the tabernacle, the tent of the covenant law,(Y) was set up,(Z) the cloud(AA) covered it. From evening till morning the cloud above the tabernacle looked like fire.(AB) 16 That is how it continued to be; the cloud covered it, and at night it looked like fire.(AC) 17 Whenever the cloud lifted from above the tent, the Israelites set out;(AD) wherever the cloud settled, the Israelites encamped.(AE) 18 At the Lord’s command the Israelites set out, and at his command they encamped. As long as the cloud stayed over the tabernacle, they remained(AF) in camp. 19 When the cloud remained over the tabernacle a long time, the Israelites obeyed the Lord’s order(AG) and did not set out.(AH) 20 Sometimes the cloud was over the tabernacle only a few days; at the Lord’s command they would encamp, and then at his command they would set out. 21 Sometimes the cloud stayed only from evening till morning, and when it lifted in the morning, they set out. Whether by day or by night, whenever the cloud lifted, they set out. 22 Whether the cloud stayed over the tabernacle for two days or a month or a year, the Israelites would remain in camp and not set out; but when it lifted, they would set out. 23 At the Lord’s command they encamped, and at the Lord’s command they set out. They obeyed the Lord’s order, in accordance with his command through Moses.
