Numbers 10:1-7 ▼

1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying:

2 Make two silver trumpets; you shall make them of hammered work; and you shall use them for summoning the congregation, and for breaking camp.

3 When both are blown, the whole congregation shall assemble before you at the entrance of the tent of meeting.

4 But if only one is blown, then the leaders, the heads of the tribes of Israel, shall assemble before you.

5 When you blow an alarm, the camps on the east side shall set out;

6 when you blow a second alarm, the camps on the south side shall set out. An alarm is to be blown whenever they are to set out.

7 But when the assembly is to be gathered, you shall blow, but you shall not sound an alarm.
