| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1The LORD also told Moses, |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 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. |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3Sound them when the whole assembly is to gather together at the entrance to the appointed place of meeting. |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4When one trumpet is blown, the elders and the heads of the thousands of the Israelis are to gather to you. |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5When you sound an alarm, the ones encamped on the east side are to begin to travel. |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 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. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7But when you blow the trumpet to assemble the whole congregation, don't use the same sound as you do for sounding an alarm. |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8The descendants of Aaron the priest are to blow the trumpets. Have them do this for you permanently throughout your generations to come." |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 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. |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 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." |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11On the twentieth day of the second month in the second year, the cloud was lifted up from the Tent of Meeting, |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12so the Israelis set out from the Sinai Wilderness until the cloud settled in the Paran Wilderness, |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13doing what the LORD had said through Moses. |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14The standard of the camp of Judah was the first to travel, accompanied by its army with Amminadab's son Nahshon in charge. |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15Zuar's son Nethanel was in charge of the camp of Issachar. |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16Helon's son Eliab was in charge of the camp of Zebulun. |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17The tent was taken down, and the descendants of Gershon and Merari carried the tent. |
| 18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18Then the standard of the camp of Reuben set out, accompanied by its army with Shedeur's son Elizur in charge. |
| 19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19Zurishaddai's son Shelumiel was in charge of the tribe of Simeon. |
| 20[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 20Deuel's son Eliasaph was in charge of the tribe of Gad. |
| 21[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 21Then the descendants of Kohath, carrying the sanctuary, set out, since the tent was to be set up before they arrive. |
| 22[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 22After this, the standard of the camp of Ephraim set out, accompanied by its army with Ammihud's son Elishama in charge. |
| 23[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 23Pedazzur's son Gamaliel was in charge of the tribe of Manasseh. |
| 24[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 24Gideoni's son Abidan was in charge of the army of the tribe of Benjamin. |
| 25[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 25Then the standard of the camp of Dan set out, functioning as the rear guard for all the encampments, accompanied by its army with Ammishaddai's son Ahiezer. |
| 26[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 26Ochran's son Pagiel was in charge of the tribe of Asher. |
| 27[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 27Enan's son Ahira was in charge of the tribe of Naphtali. |
| 28[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 28This was the travel order for the Israelis, whenever their companies traveled. |
| 29[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 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[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 30But he said, "I won't go with you because I'm returning to my land and to my own family." |
| 31[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 31Then Moses responded, "Please don't leave us now, since you know where we can camp in the wilderness. You could be our guide. |
| 32[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 32And when you come with us, the good things that the LORD will grant us, we'll give you as well." |
| 33[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 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. |
| 34[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 34Moreover, the cloud of the LORD protected them during the day when they left their camp. |
| 35[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 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." |
| 36[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 36Whenever the ark was being readied to rest, he would say: "Return, LORD, to the countless thousands of Israel." |
