Parallel Chapters The Two Silver Trumpets | 1The LORD said to Moses: | 1The LORD spoke to Moses, saying, | 1The LORD spoke further to Moses, saying, | 1And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, | 1The LORD spoke to Moses: " |
| 2"Make two trumpets of hammered silver, and use them for calling the community together and for having the camps set out. | 2“Make two silver trumpets. Of hammered work you shall make them, and you shall use them for summoning the congregation and for breaking camp. | 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. | 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. | 2Make two trumpets of hammered silver to summon the community and have the camps set out. |
| 3When both are sounded, the whole community is to assemble before you at the entrance to the tent of meeting. | 3And when both are blown, all the congregation shall gather themselves to you at the entrance of the tent of meeting. | 3"When both are blown, all the congregation shall gather themselves to you at the doorway of the tent of meeting. | 3And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. | 3When both are sounded in long blasts, the entire community is to gather before you at the entrance to the tent of meeting. |
| 4If only one is sounded, the leaders--the heads of the clans of Israel--are to assemble before you. | 4But if they blow only one, then the chiefs, the heads of the tribes of Israel, shall gather themselves to you. | 4"Yet if only one is blown, then the leaders, the heads of the divisions of Israel, shall assemble before you. | 4And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, which are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee. | 4However, if one is sounded, only the leaders, the heads of Israel's clans, are to gather before you." |
| 5When a trumpet blast is sounded, the tribes camping on the east are to set out. | 5When you blow an alarm, the camps that are on the east side shall set out. | 5"But when you blow an alarm, the camps that are pitched on the east side shall set out. | 5When ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east parts shall go forward. | 5When you sound short blasts, the camps pitched on the east are to set out. |
| 6At the sounding of a second blast, the camps on the south are to set out. The blast will be the signal for setting out. | 6And when you blow an alarm the second time, the camps that are on the south side shall set out. An alarm is to be blown whenever they are to set out. | 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. | 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. | 6When you sound short blasts a second time, the camps pitched on the south are to set out. Short blasts are to be sounded for them to set out. |
| 7To gather the assembly, blow the trumpets, but not with the signal for setting out. | 7But when the assembly is to be gathered together, you shall blow a long blast, but you shall not sound an alarm. | 7"When convening the assembly, however, you shall blow without sounding an alarm. | 7But when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm. | 7When calling the assembly together, you are to sound long blasts, not short ones. |
| 8"The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to blow the trumpets. This is to be a lasting ordinance for you and the generations to come. | 8And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets. The trumpets shall be to you for a perpetual statute 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. | 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. | 8The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to sound the trumpets. Your use of these is a permanent statute throughout your generations." |
| 9When you go into battle in your own land against an enemy who is oppressing you, sound a blast on the trumpets. Then you will be remembered by the LORD your God and rescued from your enemies. | 9And when you go to war in your land against the adversary who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets, that you may be remembered before the LORD your God, and you 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. | 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. | 9When you enter into battle in your land against an adversary who is attacking you, sound short blasts on the trumpets, and you will be remembered before the LORD your God and be delivered from your enemies. |
| 10Also at your times of rejoicing--your appointed festivals and New Moon feasts--you are to sound the trumpets over your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, and they will be a memorial for you before your God. I am the LORD your God." | 10On the day of your gladness also, and at your appointed feasts and at the beginnings of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings. They shall be a reminder of you 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." | 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. | 10You are to sound the trumpets over your burnt offerings and your fellowship sacrifices and on your joyous occasions, your appointed festivals, and the beginning of each of your months. They will serve as a reminder for you before your God: I am Yahweh your God." |
