Numbers 10:25-36 ▼

25 And the standard of the camp of the sons of Dan set out, the rear guard of all the camps, according to their armies, and over their army was Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai.

26 And over the army of the tribe of the sons of Asher was Pagiel son of Ocran.

27 And over the army of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali was Ahira son of Enan.

28 These were the order of march of the sons of Israel according to their armies, and they began their journey.

29 And Moses said to Hobab son of Reuel the Midianite, father-in-law of Moses, “We are setting out for the place of which YHWH said, ‘I will give it to you?.’ Come with us and we will treat you well, for YHWH has promised good things to Israel.”

30 And he said to him, “I will not go. But I will depart to my land and to my relatives.”

31 And Moses said, “Please do not leave us, for upon thus you know how we are to camp in the wilderness, and you can be our eyes.

32 And it shall be, if you go with us, indeed it shall be that whatever good YHWH will do to us, the same we will do to you.”

33 And they departed from the mountain of YHWH on a journey of three days, and the ark of the covenant of YHWH went before them for the journey three days to search out for them a resting place.

34 And the cloud of YHWH was above them by day, when they set out from the camp.

35 And it came to pass in the journeying of the ark that Moses said, “Rise up, O YHWH! And let Your enemies be scattered, and let those who hate You flee from your face.”

36 And in its resting he said, “Return, O YHWH, to the myriads, the thousands of Israel.”
