Numbers 10

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 ADONAI said to Moshe,

2 "Make two trumpets; make them of hammered silver. Use them for summoning the community and for sounding the call to break camp and move on.

3 When they are sounded, the entire community is to assemble before you at the entrance to the tent of meeting.

4 If only one is sounded, then just the leaders, the heads of the clans of Isra'el, are to assemble before you.

5 "When you sound an alarm, the camps to the east will commence traveling.

6 When you sound a second alarm, the camps to the south will set out; they will sound alarms to announce when to travel.

7 However, when the community is to be assembled, you are to sound; but don't sound an alarm.

8 It will be the sons of Aharon, the cohanim, who are to sound the trumpets; this will be a permanent regulation for you through all your generations.

9 "When you go to war in your land against an adversary who is oppressing you, you are to sound an alarm with the trumpets; then you will be remembered before ADONAI your God, and you will be saved from your enemies.

10 "Also on your days of rejoicing, at your designated times and on Rosh-Hodesh, you are to sound the trumpets over your burnt offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; these will be your reminder before your God. I am ADONAI your God."

11 On the twentieth day of the second month of the second year, the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle of the testimony;

12 and the people of Isra'el moved out in stages from the Sinai Desert. The cloud stopped in the Pa'ran Desert.

13 So they set out on their first journey, in keeping with ADONAI's order through Moshe.

14 In the lead was the banner of the camp of the descendants of Y'hudah, whose companies moved forward; over his company was Nachshon the son of 'Amminadav.

15 Over the company of the tribe of the descendants of Yissakhar was N'tan'el the son of Tzu'ar.

16 Over the company of the descendants of Z'vulun was Eli'av the son of Helon.

17 Then the tabernacle was taken down; and the descendants of Gershon and the descendants of M'rari set out, carrying the tabernacle.

18 Next, the banner of the camp of Re'uven moved forward by companies; over his company was Elitzur the son of Sh'de'ur.

19 Over the company of the tribe of the descendants of Shim'on was Shlumi'el the son of Tzurishaddai.

20 Over the company of the descendants of Gad was Elyasaf the son of De'u'el.

21 Then the descendants of K'hat set out, carrying the sanctuary, so that [at the next camp] the tabernacle could be set up before they arrived.

22 The banner of the camp of the descendants of Efrayim moved forward by companies; over his company was Elishama the son of 'Ammihud.

23 Over the company of the tribe of the descendants of M'nasheh was Gamli'el the son of P'dahtzur.

24 Over the company of the descendants of Binyamin was Avidan the son of Gid'oni.

25 The banner of the camp of the descendants of Dan, forming the rearguard for all the camps, moved forward by companies; over his company was Achi'ezer the son of 'Ammishaddai.

26 Over the company of the tribe of the descendants of Asher was Pag'i'el the son of 'Okhran.

27 Over the company of the descendants of Naftali was Achira the son of 'Enan.

28 This is how the people of Isra'el traveled by companies; thus they moved forward.

29 Moshe said to Hovav the son of Re'u'el the Midyani, Moshe's father-in-law, "We are traveling to the place about which ADONAI said, 'I will give it to you.'Come with us, and we will treat you well, because ADONAI has promised good things to Isra'el."

30 But he replied, "I will not go; I would rather go back to my own country and my own kinsmen."

31 Moshe continued, "Please don't leave us, because you know that we have to camp in the desert, and you can serve as our eyes.

32 If you do go with us, then whatever good ADONAI does for us, we will do the same for you."

33 So they set out from ADONAI's mountain and traveled for three days. Ahead of them on this three-day journey went the ark of ADONAI's covenant, searching for a new place to stop.

34 The cloud of ADONAI was over them during the day as they set out from the camp.

35 When the ark moved forward, Moshe said, "Arise, ADONAI! May your enemies be scattered! Let those who hate you flee before you!"

36 When it stopped, he said, "Return, ADONAI of the many, many thousands of Isra'el!"

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

1 The LORD said to Moses,

2 "Make two trumpets out of hammered silver. Use them to call the community together and as a signal to break camp.

3 When you blow both trumpets, the whole community will meet with you at the entrance to the tent of meeting.

4 If only one trumpet blows, the leaders, the heads of the divisions of Israel, will meet with you.

5 When they hear the trumpet fanfare, the tribes that are camped on the east side will break camp first.

6 When the trumpets sound a second fanfare, the tribes that are camped on the south will break camp. The fanfare is the signal to break camp.

7 But when you gather the assembly, the trumpets will blow without sounding a fanfare.

8 The sons of Aaron, the priests, will blow the trumpets. This will be a permanent law for you and your descendants.

9 "When you go to war in your own country against an enemy who is oppressing you, the trumpets will sound a fanfare. Then the LORD your God will remember you and rescue you from your enemies.

10 Also, on your festival days and on the first day of the month, blow the trumpets when you sacrifice your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. The trumpets will be a reminder for you in God's presence. I am the LORD your God."

11 On the twentieth day of the second month of the second year, the [column of] smoke left the tent of the words of God's promise.

12 So the Israelites moved from the Desert of Sinai and traveled from place to place until the [column of] smoke stopped in the Desert of Paran.

13 This was the first time they moved, following the command that the LORD had given through Moses.

14 With their flag in front, the armies led by Judah's descendants broke camp first. Nahshon, son of Amminadab, was in command.

15 Nethanel, son of Zuar, commanded the army of Issachar.

16 Eliab, son of Helon, commanded the army of Zebulun.

17 Then the tent [of meeting] was taken down, and the Gershonites and Merarites, who carried it, broke camp.

18 With their flag in front, the armies led by Reuben's descendants broke camp next. Elizur, son of Shedeur, was in command.

19 Shelumiel, son of Zurishaddai, commanded the army of Simeon.

20 Eliasaph, son of Deuel, commanded the army of Gad.

21 Then the Kohathites, who carried the holy things, broke camp. By the time they arrived, the tent [of meeting] would already be set up.

22 With their flag in front, the armies led by Ephraim's descendants broke camp next. Elisha, son of Ammihud, was in command.

23 Gamaliel, son of Pedahzur, commanded the army of Manasseh.

24 Abidan, son of Gideoni, commanded the army of Benjamin.

25 As a rear guard for the whole camp, the armies led by Dan's descendants broke camp last with their flag in front. Ahiezer, son of Ammishaddai, was in command.

26 Pagiel, son of Ochran, commanded the army of Asher.

27 Ahira, son of Enan, commanded the army of Naphtali.

28 This was the order in which the Israelite armies broke camp when they went from place to place.

29 Moses said to his brother-in-law Hobab, son of Reuel the Midianite, "We are going to the place the LORD promised to give us. Come with us. We will be good to you, because the LORD has promised good things to Israel."

30 Hobab answered, "No, I won't go. I want to go back to my own country where my relatives are."

31 But Moses said, "Please don't leave us. You know where we can set up camp in the desert, and you could be our guide.

32 If you come with us, we will share with you all the good things the LORD gives us."

33 So they left the mountain of the LORD and traveled for three days. The ark of the LORD's promise went ahead of them a distance of three days' journey to find them a place to rest.

34 The LORD's [column of] smoke was over them by day when they moved the camp.

35 Whenever the ark started to move, Moses would say, "Arise, O LORD! Scatter your enemies! Make those who hate you run away from you!"

36 And whenever it stopped, he would say, "Return, O LORD, to the countless thousands of Israel!"
