Toda la noche es kasher para la cosecha del omer y la quema de las grasas y las extremidades [sobrante del tamid de la tarde, a saber. (Levítico 6: 2): "Es la ofrenda quemada sobre su leña en el altar toda la noche".] Esta es la regla: Algo cuya mitzvá es durante el día es kasher todo el día, [para incluir la organización de los dos recipientes de incienso colocados en el pan del espectáculo], y algo cuya mitzvá es de noche es kasher toda la noche, [para incluir el comer de la ofrenda de Pesaj, que es kasher toda la noche, los sabios dijeron "hasta la medianoche" solo para mantener uno lejos de la transgresión.]

English Explanation of Mishnah Megillah
The whole night is valid for reaping the Omer and for burning fat and limbs [on the altar]. There are two mitzvoth listed here that must be done at night. The first is reaping the Omer, the barley offering which is brought from the second day of Pesah through Shavuot (Leviticus 23:10). The second is putting on the altar fat and limbs that had not been burned during the day.

ודבר שמצותו בלילה כשר כל הלילה – to include the eating of the Passover sacrifice which is valid all night long, and the Sages did not say “until midnight” other than in order to distance a person from sin.

English Explanation of Mishnah Megillah
This is the general principle: any matter whose commandment is during the day, is valid all day and any matter whose commandment is at night is valid all night. This general principle illustrates that which we learned in the last two mishnayot.
