13
When the people set out for the first time, following the instructions the LORD had given through Moses,
14
Judah’s troops led the way. They marched behind their banner, and their leader was Nahshon son of Amminadab.
15
They were joined by the troops of the tribe of Issachar, led by Nethanel son of Zuar,
16
and the troops of the tribe of Zebulun, led by Eliab son of Helon.
17
Then the Tabernacle was taken down, and the Gershonite and Merarite divisions of the Levites were next in the line of march, carrying the Tabernacle with them.
