Numbers 9:6–14

⁶And there were certain men, who were ^cdefiled by the dead body of a man, that they could not keep the passover on that day: ^dand they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day: ⁷and those men said unto him, We are defiled by the dead body of a man: wherefore are we kept back, that we may not offer an offering of the Lord in his appointed season among the children of Israel? ⁸And Moses said unto them, Stand still, and ^eI will hear what the Lord will command concerning you.

⁹And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, ¹⁰Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If any man of you or of your posterity shall be unclean by reason of a dead body, or be in a journey afar off, yet he shall keep the passover unto the Lord. ^11fThe fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep it, and ^geat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. ^12hThey shall leave none of it unto the morning, ⁱnor break any bone of it: ^kaccording to all the ordinances of the passover they ^lshall keep it. ¹³But the man that is clean, and is not in a journey, and forbeareth to keep the passover, even the same soul shall be cut off from among his people: because he ^mbrought not the offering of the Lord in his appointed season, that man shall ⁿbear his sin. ¹⁴And if a stranger shall sojourn among you, and will keep the passover unto the Lord; according to the ordinance of the passover, and according to the manner thereof, so shall he do: ^oye shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger, and for him that was born in the land.
