| 1And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | 1The LORD spoke further to Moses, saying, |
| 2Make thee two trumpets of silver; of a whole piece shalt thou make them: that thou mayest use them for the calling of the assembly, and for the journeying of the camps. | 2"Make yourself two trumpets of silver, of hammered work you shall make them; and you shall use them for summoning the congregation and for having the camps set out. |
| 3And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. | 3"When both are blown, all the congregation shall gather themselves to you at the doorway of the tent of meeting. |
| 4And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, which are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee. | 4"Yet if only one is blown, then the leaders, the heads of the divisions of Israel, shall assemble before you. |
| 5When ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east parts shall go forward. | 5"But when you blow an alarm, the camps that are pitched on the east side shall set out. |
| 6When ye blow an alarm the second time, then the camps that lie on the south side shall take their journey: they shall blow an alarm for their journeys. | 6"When you blow an alarm the second time, the camps that are pitched on the south side shall set out; an alarm is to be blown for them to set out. |
| 7But when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm. | 7"When convening the assembly, however, you shall blow without sounding an alarm. |
| 8And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the trumpets; and they shall be to you for an ordinance for ever throughout your generations. | 8"The priestly sons of Aaron, moreover, shall blow the trumpets; and this shall be for you a perpetual statute throughout your generations. |
| 9And if ye go to war in your land against the enemy that oppresseth you, then ye shall blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before the LORD your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies. | 9"When you go to war in your land against the adversary who attacks you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets, that you may be remembered before the LORD your God, and be saved from your enemies. |
| 10Also in the day of your gladness, and in your solemn days, and in the beginnings of your months, ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; that they may be to you for a memorial before your God: I am the LORD your God. | 10"Also in the day of your gladness and in your appointed feasts, and on the first days of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; and they shall be as a reminder of you before your God. I am the LORD your God." |
