Numbers 10

Good News Translation GNT

1 The Lord said to Moses,

2 "Make two trumpets of hammered silver to use for calling the people together and for breaking camp.

3 When long blasts are sounded on both trumpets, the whole community is to gather around you at the entrance to the Tent of my presence.

4 But when only one trumpet is sounded, then only the leaders of the clans are to gather around you.

5 When short blasts are sounded, the tribes camped on the east will move out.

6 When short blasts are sounded a second time, the tribes on the south will move out. So short blasts are to be sounded to break camp,

7 but in order to call the community together, long blasts are to be sounded.

8 The trumpets are to be blown by Aaron's sons, the priests. "The following rule is to be observed for all time to come.

9 When you are at war in your land, defending yourselves against an enemy who has attacked you, sound the signal for battle on these trumpets. I, the Lord your God, will help you and save you from your enemies.

10 Also on joyful occasions - at your New Moon Festivals and your other religious festivals - you are to blow the trumpets when you present your burnt offerings and your fellowship offerings. Then I will help you. I am the Lord your God."

11 On the twentieth day of the second month in the second year after the people left Egypt, the cloud over the Tent of the Lord's presence lifted,

12 and the Israelites started on their journey out of the Sinai Desert. The cloud came to rest in the wilderness of Paran.

13 They began to march at the command of the Lord through Moses,

14 and each time they moved, they were in the same order. Those under the banner of the division led by the tribe of Judah started out first, company by company, with Nahshon son of Amminadab in command.

15 Nethanel son of Zuar was in command of the tribe of Issachar,

16 and Eliab son of Helon was in command of the tribe of Zebulun.

17 Then the Tent would be taken down, and the clans of Gershon and Merari, who carried it, would start out.

18 Next, those under the banner of the division led by the tribe of Reuben would start out, company by company, with Elizur son of Shedeur in command.

19 Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai was in command of the tribe of Simeon,

20 and Eliasaph son of Deuel was in command of the tribe of Gad.

21 Then the Levite clan of Kohath would start out, carrying the sacred objects. By the time they arrived at the next camp, the Tent had been set up again.

22 Next, those under the banner of the division led by the tribe of Ephraim would start out, company by company, with Elishama son of Ammihud in command.

23 Gamaliel son of Pedahzur was in command of the tribe of Manasseh,

24 and Abidan son of Gideoni was in command of the tribe of Benjamin.

25 Finally, those under the banner of the division led by the tribe of Dan, serving as the rear guard of all the divisions, would start out, company by company, with Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai in command.

26 Pagiel son of Ochran was in command of the tribe of Asher,

27 and Ahira son of Enan was in command of the tribe of Naphtali.

28 This, then, was the order of march, company by company, whenever the Israelites broke camp and set out.

29 Moses said to his brother-in-law Hobab son of Jethro the Midianite, "We are about to start out for the place which the Lord said he would give us. He has promised to make Israel prosperous, so come with us, and we will share our prosperity with you."

30 Hobab answered, "No, I am going back to my native land."

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

32 If you come with us, we will share with you all the blessings that the Lord gives us."

33 When the people left Sinai, the holy mountain, they traveled three days. The Lord's Covenant Box always went ahead of them to find a place for them to camp.

34 As they moved on from each camp, the cloud of the Lord was over them by day.

35 Whenever the Covenant Box started out, Moses would say, "Arise, Lord; scatter your enemies and put to flight those who hate you!"

36 And whenever it stopped, he would say, "Return, Lord, to the thousands of families of Israel."

1 The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

2 “Make two trumpets of silver. You shall make them of beaten work. You shall use them for the calling of the congregation and for the journeying of the camps.

3 When they blow them, all the congregation shall gather themselves to you at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

4 If they blow just one, then the princes, the heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves to you.

5 When you blow an alarm, the camps that lie on the east side shall go forward.

6 When you blow an alarm the second time, the camps that lie on the south side shall go forward. They shall blow an alarm for their journeys.

7 But when the assembly is to be gathered together, you shall blow, but you shall not sound an alarm.

8 “The sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets. This shall be to you for a statute forever throughout your generations.

9 When you go to war in your land against the adversary who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets. Then you will be remembered before the LORD your God, and you will be saved from your enemies.

10 “Also in the day of your gladness, and in your set feasts, and in the beginnings of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; and they shall be to you for a memorial before your God. I am the LORD your God.”

11 In the second year, in the second month, on the twentieth day of the month, the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle of the covenant.

12 The children of Israel went forward on their journeys out of the wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud stayed in the wilderness of Paran.

13 They first went forward according to the commandment of the LORD by Moses.

14 First, the standard of the camp of the children of Judah went forward according to their armies. Nahshon the son of Amminadab was over his army.

15 Nethanel the son of Zuar was over the army of the tribe of the children of Issachar.

16 Eliab the son of Helon was over the army of the tribe of the children of Zebulun.

18 The standard of the camp of Reuben went forward according to their armies. Elizur the son of Shedeur was over his army.

19 Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai was over the army of the tribe of the children of Simeon.

20 Eliasaph the son of Deuel was over the army of the tribe of the children of Gad.

21 The Kohathites set forward, bearing the sanctuary. The others set up the tabernacle before they arrived.

22 The standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim set forward according to their armies. Elishama the son of Ammihud was over his army.

23 Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur was over the army of the tribe of the children of Manasseh.

24 Abidan the son of Gideoni was over the army of the tribe of the children of Benjamin.

25 The standard of the camp of the children of Dan, which was the rear guard of all the camps, set forward according to their armies. Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai was over his army.

26 Pagiel the son of Ochran was over the army of the tribe of the children of Asher.

27 Ahira the son of Enan was over the army of the tribe of the children of Naphtali.

28 Thus were the travels of the children of Israel according to their armies; and they went forward.

29 Moses said to Hobab, the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law, “We are journeying to the place of which the LORD said, ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us, and we will treat you well; for the LORD has spoken good concerning Israel.”

30 He said to him, “I will not go; but I will depart to my own land, and to my relatives.”

31 Moses said, “Don’t leave us, please; because you know how we are to encamp in the wilderness, and you can be our eyes.

32 It shall be, if you go with us—yes, it shall be—that whatever good the LORD does to us, we will do the same to you.”

33 They set forward from the Mount of the LORD three days’ journey. The ark of the LORD’s covenant went before them three days’ journey, to seek out a resting place for them.

34 The cloud of the LORD was over them by day, when they set forward from the camp.

35 When the ark went forward, Moses said, “Rise up, LORD, and let your enemies be scattered! Let those who hate you flee before you!”

36 When it rested, he said, “Return, LORD, to the ten thousands of the thousands of Israel.”
