And the Lord said to Moses, in the waste land of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt,

וַיְדַבֵּ֣ר (וַ) va “and”

And Moses gave orders to the children of Israel to keep the Passover.

וַיְדַבֵּ֥ר (וַ) va “and”

So they kept the Passover in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the waste land of Sinai: as the Lord gave orders to Moses, so the children of Israel did.

And there were certain men who were unclean because of a dead body, so that they were not able to keep the Passover on that day; and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day:

וַיְהִ֣י (וַ) va “and”וַֽיִּקְרְב֞וּ (וַֽ) va “and”

And these men said to him, We have been made unclean by the dead body of a man; why may we not make the offering of the Lord at the regular time among the children of Israel?

וַ֠יֹּאמְרוּ (וַ֠) Va “and”

And Moses said to them, Do nothing till the Lord gives me directions about you.

And the Lord said to Moses,

וַיְדַבֵּ֥ר (וַ) va “and”

Say to the children of Israel, If any one of you or of your families is unclean because of a dead body, or is on a journey far away, still he is to keep the Passover to the Lord:

וְעָ֥שָׂה (וְ) ve. “and”

But the man who, not being unclean or on a journey, does not keep the Passover, will be cut off from his people: because he did not make the offering of the Lord at the regular time, his sin will be on him.

וְנִכְרְתָ֛ה (וְ) ve. “and”

And if a man from another country is among you and has a desire to keep the Passover to the Lord, let him do as is ordered in the law of the Passover: there is to be the same rule for the man from another nation and for him who had his birth in the land.
