Numbers 9:10-12

Contemporary English Version

¹⁰ to say to the community of Israel:

If any of you or your descendants touch a dead body and become unfit to worship me, or if you are away on a long journey, you may still celebrate Passover. ¹¹ But it must be done in the second month,^[a] in the evening of the fourteenth day. Eat the Passover lamb with thin bread and bitter herbs, ^12 (A) and don't leave any of it until morning or break any of the animal's bones. Be sure to follow these regulations.
