And there were certain men, who were defiled by the dead body of a man, that they could not keep the passover on that day: and they came before Moses and before Aaron on that day:(Numbers 9:6)
And 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?(Numbers 9:7)
And Moses said unto them, Stand still, and I will hear what the LORD will command concerning you.(Numbers 9:8)
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Speak 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.(Numbers 9:10)
The fourteenth day of the second month at even they shall keep it, and eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.(Numbers 9:11)
They shall leave none of it unto the morning, nor break any bone of it: according to all the ordinances of the passover they shall keep it.(Numbers 9:12)
