Numbers 10:33-36

Listen to Numbers 10:33-36
33 So they set out from the mount of the Lord three days' journey with the ark of the covenant of the Lord going before them three days' journey, to seek out a resting place for them,
34 the cloud of the Lord being over them by day when they set out from the camp.
35 Whenever the ark set out, Moses would say, "Arise, O Lord, let your enemies be scattered, and your foes flee before you."
36 And whenever it came to rest, he would say, "Return, O Lord of the ten thousand thousands of Israel."
