The First Book of Moses, Commonly Called Numbers (WEB)
10: 1Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 10:2Make you two trumpets of silver; of beaten work shall
you make them: and you shall use them for the calling of the congregation, and for the journeying
of the camps. 10:3When they shall blow them, all the congregation shall gather themselves to you at
the door of the tent of meeting. 10:4If they blow but one, then the princes, the heads of the
thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves to you. 10:5When you blow an alarm, the camps that lie
on the east side shall take their journey. 10:6When you blow an alarm the second time, the camps
that lie on the south side shall take their journey: they shall blow an alarm for their journeys.
10:7But when the assembly is to be gathered together, you shall blow, but you shall not sound an
alarm. 10:8The sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets; and they shall be to you for a
statute forever throughout your generations. 10:9When you go to war in your land against the
adversary who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets; and you shall be
remembered before Yahweh your God, and you shall be saved from your enemies. 10:10Also in the
day of your gladness, and in your set feasts, and in the beginnings of your months, you shall blow
the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace-offerings; and they
shall be to you for a memorial before your God: I am Yahweh your God. 10:11It happened in the
second year, in the second month, on the twentieth day of the month, that the cloud was taken up
from over the tent of the testimony. 10:12The children of Israel set forward according to their
journeys out of the wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud abode in the wilderness of Paran. 10:13They
first took their journey according to the commandment of Yahweh by Moses. 10:14In the first place
the standard of the camp of the children of Judah set forward according to their hosts: and over his
host was Nahshon the son of Amminadab. 10:15Over the host of the tribe of the children of Issachar
was Nethanel the son of Zuar. 10:16Over the host of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was Eliab
the son of Helon. 10:17The tent was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari,
who bore the tent, set forward. 10:18The standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according to
their hosts: and over his host was Elizur the son of Shedeur. 10:19Over the host of the tribe of the
children of Simeon was Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai. 10:20Over the host of the tribe of the
children of Gad was Eliasaph the son of Deuel. 10:21The Kohathites set forward, bearing the
sanctuary: and the others did set up the tent against their coming. 10:22The standard of the camp of
the children of Ephraim set forward according to their hosts: and over his host was Elishama the
son of Ammihud. 10:23Over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh was Gamaliel the son
of Pedahzur. 10:24Over the host of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was Abidan the son of
Gideoni. 10:25The standard of the camp of the children of Dan, which was the rearward of all the
camps, set forward according to their hosts: and over his host was Ahiezer the son of
Ammishaddai. 10:26Over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher was Pagiel the son of Ochran.
10:27Over the host of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira the son of Enan. 10:28Thus were
the travels of the children of Israel according to their hosts; and they set forward. 10:29Moses said to
Hobab, the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law, We are journeying to the place of
which Yahweh said, I will give it you: come you with us, and we will do you good; for Yahweh
has spoken good concerning Israel. 10:30He said to him, I will not go; but I will depart to my own
land, and to my relatives. 10:31He said, Don't leave us, please; because you know how we are to
encamp in the wilderness, and you shall be to us instead of eyes. 10:32It shall be, if you go with us,
yes, it shall be, that whatever good Yahweh shall do to us, the same will we do to you. 10:33They set
forward from the Mount of Yahweh three days' journey; and the ark of the covenant of Yahweh
went before them three days' journey, to seek out a resting-place for them. 10:34The cloud of
Yahweh was over them by day, when they set forward from the camp. 10:35It happened, when the
ark set forward, that Moses said, Rise up, Yahweh, and let your enemies be scattered; and let
those who hate you flee before you. 10:36When it rested, he said, Return, Yahweh, to the ten
thousands of the thousands of Israel.
