8. Moses answered them, “Wait, that I may hear what the Lord will command concerning you.”
9. The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
10. “Say to the children of Israel, ‘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 Passover to the Lord.
11. In the second month, on the fourteenth day at evening they shall keep it; they shall eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
12. They shall leave none of it until the morning, nor break a bone of it. According to all the statute of the Passover they shall keep it.
13. But the man who is clean, and is not on a journey, and fails to keep the Passover, 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.
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.
