Nomery 9
1 Nitsara amy Mosè t’Iehovà an-dratraratra’ i Sinay añe ami’ty volam-balohan-taom-paharoe’ fienga’ iareo an-tane Mitsraime, ami’ty hoe:
The Lord spoke to Moses in the Sinai desert in the first month of the second year after Israel had left Egypt. He told him,
2 Hambena’ o ana’ Israeleo i Fihelañey amy namotoañañe azey,
“The Israelites are to keep the Passover at its designated time.
3 ami’ty andro faha-folo-efats’ ambi’ ty volañe toy naho hariva ty hambena’ areo aze amy namantañañe azey; o fañè’e iabio naho ze hene fepe’e ty hambena’ areo.
Observe it at the time required—in the evening after sunset on the fourteenth day of this month, and do so in accordance with its rules and regulations.”
4 Aa le sinaontsi’ i Mosè amo ana’ Israeleo ty hiambeñe i Fihelañey.
Moses told the Israelites to observe the Passover.
5 Le nambena’ iareo te folakandro-miroñe amy andro faha-folo-efats’ ambi’ i volam-baloha’ey am-patrambei’ i Sinay i Fihelañey; amy nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosèy ty nanoe’ o ana’ Israeleo.
So they kept the Passover in the Sinai desert, beginning in the evening after sunset on the fourteenth day of the first month. The Israelites followed all the instructions the Lord had given to Moses.
6 Ie amy zao teo t’indaty nandeo-batañe ami’ ty lolo vaho tsy nete niatreke i Fihelañey amy andro zay; aa le nimb’ amy Mosè naho i Aharone amy àndroy,
However, there were some men who were unclean because they had been contact with a dead body, so they could not keep the Passover on that day. They went to see Moses and Aaron the same day
7 le nanoe’ indaty rey ty hoe, Maleotse ami’ty fate’ ondaty zahay. Aa vaho ho sebañeñe tsy hitraok’ amo ana’ Israeleo hibanabana i enga’ Iehovày amy namantañañe azey hao?
and explained to Moses, “We are unclean because of a dead body, but why should that mean we're prevented from giving our offering to the Lord with the other Israelites at the appropriate time?”
8 Le hoe t’i Mosè am’ iereo, Mahaliñisa heike hitsanoñako ty ho lilie’ Iehovà ty ama’ areo.
“Stay here while I find out what the Lord's instructions are concerning you,” Moses responded.
9 Le hoe t’Iehovà amy Mosè,
The Lord told Moses,
10 Misaontsia amo ana’ Israeleo, ty hoe: Ndra iaia t’indaty ama’ areo ndra amo tarira’ areoo maleotse ami’ty lolo, ndra t’ie am-pitaveañañe añe, le mbe hambena’e i Fihelañ’Ambone’ Iehovày;
“Tell the Israelites: ‘If you or your descendants are unclean because of a dead body, or are away traveling, you can still keep the Lord's Passover.
11 ami’ty andro miroñe’ i faha-folo-efats’ ambi’ i volam-paharoey ty hañambena’e aze. Ho kamae’ iareo ama’e ty mofo po-dalivay mitraok’ aña-mafaitse.
You are to observe it in the evening after sunset on the fourteenth day of the second month. You are to eat the lamb with the bread made without yeast, and the bitter herbs.
12 Ie tsy hanisa ami’ty maraiñe, le tsy ho pozaheñe o taola’eo. Amo fañè’ i Fihelañey iabio ty hañambena’ iareo aze.
You must not leave any of it until the following morning and you must not break any of its bones. You must observe the Passover according to all the regulations.
13 Fe t’indaty malio, tsy am-pañaveloañe añe, ie ado’e i Fihelañey tsy ambena’e; toe haitoeñe am’ondati’eo indatiy, amy t’ie tsy nibanabana i enga’ Iehovày amy namantañañe azey; ho vavè’ indatiy ty hakeo’e.
However, anyone ceremonially clean and not away traveling who neglects to observe the Passover must be expelled from their people, because they didn't present the Lord's offering at the appropriate time. They will bear the responsibility for the consequences of their sin.
14 Aa naho mañialo ama’ areo ao ty ambahiny, ie te hañambeñe i Fihelañe am’ Iehovày, le i fañèm-Pèsakey naho o fepè’eo ty anoañe aze, ho raike ty fañè’ areo naho ty amy ambahiniy vaho ty amy nisamak’ amy taney.
Any foreigners living among you who want to observe the Lord's Passover can do so following the Passover rules and regulations. The same rules apply to the foreigners as they do to you.’”
15 Amy andro nampitroareñe i kivohoiy le nakopo’ i rahoñey i kivohoy, i kibohom-pañinay; amy harivay pak’ ami’ ty maraiñe, ie ambone’ i kivohoy hoe afo.
The cloud covered the Tent of the Testimony (the Tabernacle) on the day that it was set up, and looked like fire above it from evening until the morning.
16 Zay ty nilili’e: nikolopofe’ i rahoñey te antoandro vaho nihoe afo te haleñe.
It was always like this. The cloud covered the Tabernacle during the day and at night it looked like fire.
17 Naho nonjoneñe tsy ho ambone’ i kivohoy i rahoñey, le nionjomb’eo o ana’ Israeleo; Aa naho nitsangañe i rahoñey le nitobe eo o ana’ Israeleo.
When the cloud rose from over the Tent, the Israelites would move on, and where the cloud stopped, the Israelites would set up camp there.
18 Nandily t’Iehovà, le nienga o ana’ Israeleo, le nandily t’Iehovà vaho nitobe iereo; naho nijohañe ambone’ i kivohoy i rahoñey, le mbe nitobe eo avao.
The Israelites moved on when the Lord told them to, and set up camp when the Lord told them to. While the cloud stayed over the Tabernacle, they remained camped there.
19 Ndra te nitolom-pijohañe ambone’ i kivohoy andro maro i rahoñey le nambena’ o ana’ Israeleo ty hatoro’ Iehovà, vaho tsy nañavelo.
Even if the cloud didn't move for a long time, the Israelites did what the Lord told them and didn't move on.
20 Ie amy zay, he nipetake ambone’ i kivohoy andro tsy ampeampe i rahoñey, le ami’ty lili’ Iehovà, nijohañe amy tobey iareo, vaho ami’ty lili’ Iehovà, nañavelo.
Sometimes the cloud only stayed over the Tabernacle for a few days. As always they followed the Lord's command as to whether to camp or to move on.
21 Teo i rahoñey te nitoboke hariva pak’ ami’ty maraiñe, naho nionjoñe i rahoñey le nienga iereo, ke te tambatse ey andro raike naho haleñe raike i rahoñey vaho nionjoñe, le nienga iereo.
Sometimes the cloud only stayed overnight, so when it rose in the morning they would move on. Whenever the cloud rose, day or night, they would leave.
22 Ke roe andro, he volañe raike, kera taoñe raike ty nijohaña’ i rahoñey ambone’ i kivohoy, le nitolon-kitobe ey avao o ana’ Israeleo, tsy nañavelo; ie naonjoñe, vaho nañavelo.
If the cloud stayed in one place for two days, or a month, or longer, the Israelites stayed where they were and didn't leave as long as the cloud remained over the Tabernacle. However, once it rose, they would leave.
23 Am-palie’ Iehovà, le nitobe iereo, vaho am-palie’ Iehovà, nañavelo iereo; nambena’ iareo ze nafanto’ Iehovà, ze nitsarae’ Iehovà am-pità’ i Mosèy.
They camped when the Lord told them to, and left when he told them to. They followed the Lord's instructions that he gave to Moses.
