10:1 And Yehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
10:2 Make to thyself two silver trumpets: thou shalt make them of beaten
work; and they shall be to thee for the purpose of calling the assembly, and
of removing the camps.
10:3 And thou shalt sound with them, and all the congregation shall be
gathered to the door of the tabernacle of witness.
10:4 And if they shall sound with one, all the rulers even the princes of
Israel shall come to thee.
10:5 And ye shall sound an alarm, and the camps pitched eastward shall begin
to move.
10:6 And ye shall sound a second alarm, and the camps pitched southward
shall move; and ye shall sound a third alarm, and the camps pitched westward
shall move forward; and ye shall sound a fourth alarm, and they that encamp
toward the north shall move forward: they shall sound an alarm at their
departure.
10:7 And whenever ye shall gather the assembly, ye shall sound, but not an
alarm.
10:8 And the priests the sons of Aaron shall sound with the trumpets; and it
shall be a perpetual ordinance for you throughout your generations.
10:9 And if ye shall go forth to war in your land against your enemies that
are opposed to you, then shall ye sound with the trumpets; and ye shall be
had in remembrance before Yehovah, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.
10:10 And in the days of your gladness, and in your feasts, and in your new
moons, ye shall sound with the trumpets at your whole-burnt-offerings, and
at the sacrifices of your peace-offerings; and there shall be a memorial for
you before your Elohim: I [am] Yehovah your Elohim.
10:11 And it came to pass in the second year, in the second month, on the
twentieth day of the month, the cloud went up from the tabernacle of
witness.
10:12 And the children of Israel set forward with their baggage in the
wilderness of Sina; and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Pharan.
10:13 And the first rank departed by the word of Yehovah by the hand of
Moses.
10:14 And they first set in motion the order of the camp of the children of
Judah with their host; and over their host [was] Naasson, son of Aminadab.
10:15 And over the host of the tribe of the sons of Issachar, [was]
Nathanael son of Sogar.
10:16 And over the host of the tribe of the sons of Zabulon, [was] Eliab the
son of Chaelon.
10:17 And they shall take down the tabernacle, and the sons of Gedson shall
set forward, and the sons of Merari, who bear the tabernacle.
10:18 And the order of the camp of Ruben set forward with their host; and
over their host [was] Elisur the son of Sediur.
10:19 And over the host of the tribe of the sons of Symeon, [was] Salamiel
son of Surisadai.
10:20 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Gad, [was] Elisaph
the son of Raguel.
10:21 And the sons of Caath shall set forward bearing the holy things, and
[the others] shall set up the tabernacle until they arrive.
10:22 And the order of the camp of Ephraim shall set forward with their
forces; and over their forces [was] Elisama the son of Semiud.
10:23 And over the forces of the tribes of the sons of Manasse, [was]
Gamaliel the [son] of Phadassur.
10:24 And over the forces of the tribe of the children of Benjamin, [was]
Abidan the [son] of Gadeoni.
10:25 And the order of the camp of the sons of Dan shall set forward the
last of all the camps, with their forces: and over their forces [was]
Achiezer the [son] of Amisadai.
10:26 And over the forces of the tribe of the sons of Aser, [was] Phageel
the son of Echran.
10:27 And over the forces of the tribe of the sons of Nephthali, [was]
Achire the son of Aenan.
10:28 These [are] the armies of the children of Israel; and they set forward
with their forces.
10:29 And Moses said to Obab the son of Raguel the Madianite, the
father-in-law of Moses, We are going forward to the place concerning which
Yehovah said, This will I give to you: Come with us, and we will do thee
good, for Yehovah has spoken good concerning Israel.
10:30 And he said to him, I will not go, but [I will go] to my land and to
my kindred.
10:31 And he said, Leave us not, because thou hast been with us in the
wilderness, and thou shalt be an elder among us.
10:32 And it shall come to pass if thou wilt go with us, it shall even come
to pass that in whatsoever things Yehovah shall do us good, we will also do
thee good.
10:33 And they departed from the mount of Yehovah a three days' journey;
and the ark of the covenant of Yehovah went before them a three days'
journey to provide rest for them.
10:34 And the cloud overshadowed them by day, when they departed from the
camp.
10:35 And it came to pass when the ark set forward, that Moses said, Arise,
O Lord, and let thine enemies be scattered: let all that hate thee flee.
10:36 And in the resting he said, Turn again, O Lord, the thousands [and]
tens of thousands in Israel. |
10:1 And Yehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
10:2 Make 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.
10:3 And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble
themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
10:4 And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, which are
heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee.
10:5 When ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east parts shall
go forward.
10:6 When 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.
10:7 But when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall blow,
but ye shall not sound an alarm.
10:8 And 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.
10:9 And 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 Yehovah your Elohim, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.
10:10 Also 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 Elohim: I am Yehovah your Elohim.
10:11 And it came to pass on the twentieth day of the second month, in the
second year, that the cloud was taken up from off the tabernacle of the
testimony.
10:12 And the children of Israel took their journeys out of the wilderness
of Sinai; and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Paran.
10:13 And they first took their journey according to the commandment of the
Yehovah by the hand of Moses.
10:14 In the first place went the standard of the camp of the children of
Judah according to their armies: and over his host was Nahshon the son of
Amminadab.
10:15 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Issachar was
Nethaneel the son of Zuar.
10:16 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was Eliab
the son of Helon.
10:17 And the tabernacle was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and the
sons of Merari set forward, bearing the tabernacle.
10:18 And the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according to their
armies: and over his host was Elizur the son of Shedeur.
10:19 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Simeon was Shelumiel
the son of Zurishaddai.
10:20 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Gad was Eliasaph the
son of Deuel.
10:21 And the Kohathites set forward, bearing the sanctuary: and the other
did set up the tabernacle against they came.
10:22 And the standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim set forward
according to their armies: and over his host was Elishama the son of Ammihud.
10:23 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh was
Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur.
10:24 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was Abidan
the son of Gideoni.
10:25 And the standard of the camp of the children of Dan set forward, which
was the rearward of all the camps throughout their hosts: and over his host
was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.
10:26 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher was Pagiel the
son of Ocran.
10:27 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira
the son of Enan.
10:28 Thus were the journeyings of the children of Israel according to their
armies, when they set forward.
10:29 And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Raguel the Midianite, Moses'
father in law, We are journeying unto the place of which Yehovah said, I
will give it you: come thou with us, and we will do thee good: for Yehovah
hath spoken good concerning Israel.
10:30 And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine own
land, and to my kindred.
10:31 And he said, Leave us not, I pray thee; forasmuch as thou knowest how
we are to encamp in the wilderness, and thou mayest be to us instead of
eyes.
10:32 And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be, that what
goodness Yehovah shall do unto us, the same will we do unto thee.
10:33 And they departed from the mount of Yehovah three days' journey: and
the ark of the covenant of Yehovah went before them in the three days'
journey, to search out a resting place for them.
10:34 And the cloud of Yehovah was upon them by day, when they went out of
the camp.
10:35 And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said, Rise
up, Yehovah, and let thine enemies be scattered; and let them that hate thee
flee before thee.
10:36 And when it rested, he said, Return, O Yehovah, unto the many thousands
of Israel. |
