Numbers 9:9-11

Living Bible

⁹ and this was God’s reply: ¹⁰ “If any of the people of Israel, now or in the generations to come, are defiled at Passover time because of touching a dead body, or if they are on a journey and cannot be present, they may still celebrate the Passover, but one month later, ¹¹ on May first,^[a] beginning in the evening. They are to eat the lamb at that time, with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
