The Silver Trumpets

10The LORD said to Moses,H3068H1696H4872H559
2"Make two trumpets of hammered silver to use for calling the people together and for breaking camp.H6213H8147H2689H3701H4749H6213H1961H4744H5712H4550H4264
3When long blasts are sounded on both trumpets, the whole community is to gather around you at the entrance to the Tent of my presence.H8628H2004H5712H3259H6607H168H4150
4But when only one trumpet is sounded, then only the leaders of the clans are to gather around you.H8628H259H5387H7218H505H3478H3259
5When short blasts are sounded, the tribes camped on the east will move out.H8628H8643H4264H2583H6924H5265
6When short blasts are sounded a second time, the tribes on the south will move out. So short blasts are to be sounded to break camp,H8628H8643H8145H4264H2583H8486H5265H8628H8643H4550
7but in order to call the community together, long blasts are to be sounded.H6951H6950H8628H7321
8The trumpets are to be blown by Aaron's sons, the priests. "The following rule is to be observed for all time to come.H1121H175H3548H8628H2689H2708H5769H1755
9When you are at war in your land, defending yourselves against an enemy who has attacked you, sound the signal for battle on these trumpets. I, the LORD your God, will help you and save you from your enemies.H935H4421H776H6862H6887H7321H2689H2142H6440H3068H430H3467H341
10Also on joyful occasions - at your New Moon Festivals and your other religious festivals - you are to blow the trumpets when you present your burnt offerings and your fellowship offerings. Then I will help you. I am the LORD your God."H3117H8057H4150H7218H2320H8628H2689H5930H2077H8002H2146H6440H430H3068H430

The Israelites Break Camp

11On the twentieth day of the second month in the second year after the people left Egypt, the cloud over the Tent of the LORD's presence lifted,H6242H8145H2320H8145H8141H6051H5927H4908H5715
12and the Israelites started on their journey out of the Sinai Desert. The cloud came to rest in the wilderness of Paran.H1121H3478H5265H4550H4057H5514H6051H7931H4057H6290
13They began to march at the command of the LORD through Moses,H7223H5265H6310H3068H3027H4872
14and each time they moved, they were in the same order. Those under the banner of the division led by the tribe of Judah started out first, company by company, with Nahshon son of Amminadab in command.H7223H5265H1714H4264H1121H3063H6635H5177H1121H5992
15Nethanel son of Zuar was in command of the tribe of Issachar,H6635H4294H1121H3485H5417H1121H6686
16and Eliab son of Helon was in command of the tribe of Zebulun.H6635H4294H1121H2074H446H1121H2497
17Then the Tent would be taken down, and the clans of Gershon and Merari, who carried it, would start out.H4908H3381H1121H1648H1121H4847H5265H5375H4908
18Next, those under the banner of the division led by the tribe of Reuben would start out, company by company, with Elizur son of Shedeur in command.H1714H4264H7205H5265H6635H6635H468H1121H7707
19Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai was in command of the tribe of Simeon,H6635H4294H1121H8095H8017H1121H6701
20and Eliasaph son of Deuel was in command of the tribe of Gad.H6635H4294H1121H1410H460H1121H1845
21Then the Levite clan of Kohath would start out, carrying the sacred objects. By the time they arrived at the next camp, the Tent had been set up again.H6956H5265H5375H4720H6965H4908H935
22Next, those under the banner of the division led by the tribe of Ephraim would start out, company by company, with Elishama son of Ammihud in command.H1714H4264H1121H669H5265H6635H6635H476H1121H5989
23Gamaliel son of Pedahzur was in command of the tribe of Manasseh,H6635H4294H1121H4519H1583H1121H6301
24and Abidan son of Gideoni was in command of the tribe of Benjamin.H6635H4294H1121H1144H27H1121H1441
25Finally, those under the banner of the division led by the tribe of Dan, serving as the rear guard of all the divisions, would start out, company by company, with Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai in command.H1714H4264H1121H1835H5265H622H4264H6635H6635H295H1121H5996
26Pagiel son of Ochran was in command of the tribe of Asher,H6635H4294H1121H836H6295H1121H5918
27and Ahira son of Enan was in command of the tribe of Naphtali.H6635H4294H1121H5321H299H1121H5881
28This, then, was the order of march, company by company, whenever the Israelites broke camp and set out.H428H4550H1121H3478H6635H5265
29Moses said to his brother-in-law Hobab son of Jethro the Midianite, "We are about to start out for the place which the LORD said he would give us. He has promised to make Israel prosperous, so come with us, and we will share our prosperity with you."H4872H559H2246H1121H7467H4084H4872H2859H5265H4725H3068H559H5414H3212H2895H3068H1696H2896H3478
30Hobab answered, "No, I am going back to my native land."H559H3212H3212H776H4138
31"Please don't leave us," Moses said. "You know where we can camp in the wilderness, and you can be our guide.H559H5800H3651H3045H2583H4057H5869
32If you come with us, we will share with you all the blessings that the LORD gives us."H3212H2896H3068H3190H2895

The People Set Out

33When the people left Sinai, the holy mountain, they traveled three days. The LORD's Covenant Box always went ahead of them to find a place for them to camp.H5265H2022H3068H7969H3117H1870H727H1285H3068H5265H6440H7969H3117H1870H8446H4496
34As they moved on from each camp, the cloud of the LORD was over them by day.H6051H3068H3119H5265H4264
35Whenever the Covenant Box started out, Moses would say, "Arise, LORD; scatter your enemies and put to flight those who hate you!"H727H5265H4872H559H6965H3068H341H6327H8130H5127H6440
36And whenever it stopped, he would say, "Return, LORD, to the thousands of families of Israel."H5117H559H7725H3068H7233H505H3478
