Berean Study BibleInternational Standard Version
1Then the LORD said to Moses,1The LORD also told Moses,
2“Make two trumpets of hammered silver to be used for calling the congregation and for having the camps set out.2"Make two trumpets, crafting them from beaten silver, for use in calling the congregation together and for notifying the camps to set out for travel.
3When both are sounded, the whole congregation is to assemble before you at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.3Sound them when the whole assembly is to gather together at the entrance to the appointed place of meeting.
4But if only one is sounded, then the leaders, the heads of the clans of Israel, are to gather before you.4When one trumpet is blown, the elders and the heads of the thousands of the Israelis are to gather to you.
5When you sound short blasts, the camps that lie on the east side are to set out.5When you sound an alarm, the ones encamped on the east side are to begin to travel.
6When you sound the short blasts a second time, the camps that lie on the south side are to set out. The blasts are to signal them to set out.6When you sound the alarm the second time, those encamped on the south are to begin to travel. Alarms are to be sounded for their travels.
7To convene the assembly, you are to sound long blasts, not short ones.7But when you blow the trumpet to assemble the whole congregation, don't use the same sound as you do for sounding an alarm.
8The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to sound the trumpets. This shall be a permanent statute for you and the generations to come.8The descendants of Aaron the priest are to blow the trumpets. Have them do this for you permanently throughout your generations to come."
9When you enter into battle in your land against an adversary who attacks you, sound short blasts on the trumpets, and you will be remembered before the LORD your God and saved from your enemies.9"When you wage war in your land against an enemy who is hostile to you, you are to sound an alarm with the trumpets. Then you will be remembered before the face of the LORD your God and you will be delivered from your enemies.
10And on your joyous occasions, your appointed feasts, and the beginning of each month, you are to blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings to serve as a reminder for you before your God. I am the LORD your God.”10At the beginning of the month, during your time of rejoicing at the appointed place, sound the trumpet over your burnt offering, then sacrifice your peace offering, since they are to be your memorial before the LORD your God. I am the LORD your God."

12and the Israelites set out from the Wilderness of Sinai, traveling from place to place until the cloud settled in the Wilderness of Paran.12so the Israelis set out from the Sinai Wilderness until the cloud settled in the Paran Wilderness,

29Then Moses said to Hobab, the son of Moses’ father-in-law Reuel the Midianite, “We are setting out for the place of which the LORD said: ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us, and we will treat you well, for the LORD has promised good things to Israel.”29Then Moses told Reuel's son Hobab, Moses' relative by marriage from Midian, "We are traveling to the place about which the LORD said 'I will give it to you.' So come with us and we'll be good to you, because the LORD has spoken good things about Israel."
30“I will not go,” Hobab replied. “Instead, I am going back to my own land and my own people.”30But he said, "I won't go with you because I'm returning to my land and to my own family."
31“Please do not leave us,” Moses said, “since you know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you can serve as our eyes.31Then Moses responded, "Please don't leave us now, since you know where we can camp in the wilderness. You could be our guide.
32If you come with us, we will share with you whatever good things the LORD gives us.”32And when you come with us, the good things that the LORD will grant us, we'll give you as well."
33So they set out on a three-day journey from the mountain of the LORD, with the ark of the covenant of the LORD traveling ahead of them for those three days to seek a resting place for them.33So they traveled from the mountain of the LORD, a three-day trip, with the Ark of the Covenant of the LORD traveling in front of them—a three day trip to explore a place for them to rest.
34And the cloud of the LORD was over them by day when they set out from the camp.34Moreover, the cloud of the LORD protected them during the day when they left their camp.
35Whenever the ark set out, Moses would say, “Rise up, O LORD! May Your enemies be scattered; may those who hate You flee before You.”35Whenever the ark was ready to travel, Moses would say: "Arise, LORD, to scatter your enemies, so that whoever hates you will flee from your presence."
36And when it came to rest, he would say: “Return, O LORD, to the countless thousands of Israel.”36Whenever the ark was being readied to rest, he would say: "Return, LORD, to the countless thousands of Israel."
