Numbers 9:14-23 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

14. “‘If a foreigner lives amongst you, and desires to keep the Passover to the Lord, then he shall do so according to the statute of the Passover, and according to its ordinance. You shall have one statute, both for the foreigner, and for him who is born in the land.’”

15. On the day that the tabernacle was raised up, the cloud covered the tabernacle, even the Tent of the Testimony. At evening it was over the tabernacle, as it were the appearance of fire, until morning.

16. So it was continually. The cloud covered it, and the appearance of fire by night.

17. Whenever the cloud was taken up from over the Tent, then after that the children of Israel travelled; and in the place where the cloud remained, there the children of Israel encamped.

18. At the commandment of the Lord, the children of Israel travelled, and at the commandment of the Lord they encamped. As long as the cloud remained on the tabernacle they remained encamped.

19. When the cloud stayed on the tabernacle many days, then the children of Israel kept the Lord’s command, and didn’t travel.

20. Sometimes the cloud was a few days on the tabernacle; then according to the commandment of the Lord they remained encamped, and according to the commandment of the Lord they travelled.

21. Sometimes the cloud was from evening until morning; and when the cloud was taken up in the morning, they travelled; or by day and by night, when the cloud was taken up, they travelled.

22. Whether it was two days, or a month, or a year that the cloud stayed on the tabernacle, remaining on it, the children of Israel remained encamped, and didn’t travel; but when it was taken up, they travelled.

23. At the commandment of the Lord they encamped, and at the commandment of the Lord they travelled. They kept the Lord’s command, at the commandment of the Lord by Moses.
