Numbers 33:1-8 ▼

1 These are the stages of the journeys of the Israelites, by which they came out of the land of Egypt by their [tribal] armies, under the leadership of Moses and Aaron.

2 Moses recorded their points of departure, as the LORD commanded, stage by stage; and these are their journeys according to their points of departure:

3 They set out from Rameses on the fifteenth day of the first month; on the day after the Passover the Israelites moved out triumphantly in the sight of all the Egyptians,

4 while the Egyptians were burying all their firstborn whom the LORD had struck down among them. Upon their gods the LORD also executed judgments.

5 Then the Israelites moved out from Rameses [where they had all joined together], and camped in Succoth.

6 They moved out from Succoth and camped in Etham, which is on the edge of the wilderness.

7 They moved out from Etham and turned back to Pi-hahiroth, east of Baal-zephon, and they camped before Migdol.

8 They moved out from before Pi-hahiroth and passed through the midst of the [Red] Sea into the wilderness; and they went a three days’ journey in the Wilderness of Etham and camped at Marah.
