Numbers 10

New International Reader's Version NIRV

1 The LORD spoke to Moses. He said,

2 "Make two trumpets out of hammered silver. Blow them when you want the community to gather together. And blow them when you want the camps to start out.

3 When both trumpets are blown, the whole community must gather in front of you. They must come to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

4 Suppose only one trumpet is blown. Then the leaders must gather in front of you. They are the heads of the tribes of Israel.

5 When a trumpet blast is blown, the tribes that are camped on the east side must start out.

6 When the second blast is blown, the camps on the south side must start out. The blast will tell them when to start.

7 Blow the trumpets to gather the people together. But do not use the same kind of blast.

8 "The sons of Aaron, the priests, must blow the trumpets. That is a law for you and your children after you for all time to come.

9 Suppose you go into battle in your own land. And suppose it is against an enemy who is beating you down. Then blow a blast on the trumpets. If you do, I will remember you. I will save you from your enemies. I am the LORD your God.

10 You must also blow the trumpets when you are happy. Blow them at your appointed feasts. Blow them at your New Moon Feasts. Blow them when you sacrifice your burnt offerings. Blow them when you sacrifice your friendship offerings. They will remind me of you. I am the LORD your God."

11 It was the 20th day of the second month of the second year. On that day the cloud began to move. It went up from above the holy tent where the tablets of the covenant were kept.

12 Then the people of Israel started out from the Desert of Sinai. They traveled from place to place. They kept going until the cloud came to rest in the Desert of Paran.

13 The first time they started out, the LORD commanded Moses to tell them to do it. And they did it.

14 The companies of the camp of Judah went first. They went out under their flag. Nahshon was their commander. He was the son of Amminadab.

15 Nethanel was over the company of the tribe of Issachar. Nethanel was the son of Zuar.

16 Eliab was over the company of the tribe of Zebulun. Eliab was the son of Helon.

17 The holy tent was taken down. The men of Gershon and Merari started out. They carried the tent.

18 The companies of the camp of Reuben went next. They went out under their flag. Elizur was their commander. He was the son of Shedeur.

19 Shelumiel was over the company of the tribe of Simeon. Shelumiel was the son of Zurishaddai.

20 Eliasaph was over the company of the tribe of Gad. Eliasaph was the son of Deuel.

21 The men of Kohath started out. They carried the holy things. The holy tent had to be set up before they arrived.

22 The companies of the camp of Ephraim went next. They went out under their flag. Elishama was their commander. He was the son of Ammihud.

23 Gamaliel was over the company of the tribe of Manasseh. Gamaliel was the son of Pedahzur.

24 Abidan was over the company of the tribe of Benjamin. Abidan was the son of Gideoni.

25 Finally, the companies of the camp of Dan started out. They marched out under their flag. They followed behind all of the other companies and guarded them. Ahiezer was their commander. He was the son of Ammishaddai.

26 Pagiel was over the company of the tribe of Asher. Pagiel was the son of Ocran.

27 Ahira was over the company of the tribe of Naphtali. Ahira was the son of Enan.

28 As the companies of Israel started out, that was the order they marched in.

29 Moses spoke to Hobab, the son of Reuel. Reuel was Moses' father-in-law. Reuel was from Midian. Moses said to Hobab, "We're starting out for the place the LORD promised to us. He said to us, 'I will give it to you.' So come with us. We'll treat you well. The LORD has promised to give good things to Israel."

30 Hobab answered, "No. I can't go. I'm going back to my own land. I'm returning to my own people."

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

32 So come with us. The LORD will give us good things. We'll share them with you."

33 So they started out from the mountain of the Lord. They traveled for three days. The ark of the covenant of the LORD went in front of them during those three days. It went ahead of them to find a place for them to rest.

34 They started out from the camp by day. And the cloud of the LORD was above them.

35 When the ark started out, Moses said, "Lord, rise up! Let your enemies be scattered. Let them run away from you."

36 When the ark came to rest, Moses said, "Lord, return. Return to the many thousands of people in Israel."

New King James Version NKJV

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2 "Make two silver trumpets for yourself; you shall make them of hammered work; you shall use them for calling the congregation and for directing the movement of the camps.

3 When they blow both of them, all the congregation shall gather before you at the door of the tabernacle of meeting.

4 But if they blow only one, then the leaders, the heads of the divisions of Israel, shall gather to you.

5 When you sound the advance, the camps that lie on the east side shall then begin their journey.

6 When you sound the advance the second time, then the camps that lie on the south side shall begin their journey; they shall sound the call for them to begin their journeys.

7 And when the assembly is to be gathered together, you shall blow, but not sound the advance.

8 The sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets; and these shall be to you as an ordinance forever throughout your generations.

9 When you go to war in your land against the enemy who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets, and 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, in your appointed feasts, and at the beginning of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; and they shall be a memorial for you before your God: I am the Lord your God."

11 Now it came to pass on the twentieth day of the second month, in the second year, that the cloud was taken up from above the tabernacle of the Testimony.

12 And the children of Israel set out from the Wilderness of Sinai on their journeys; then the cloud settled down in the Wilderness of Paran.

13 So they started out for the first time according to the command of the Lord by the hand of Moses.

14 The standard of the camp of the children of Judah set out first according to their armies; over their army was Nahshon the son of Amminadab.

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

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

17 Then the tabernacle was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari set out, carrying the tabernacle.

18 And the standard of the camp of Reuben set out according to their armies; over their army was Elizur the son of Shedeur.

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

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

21 Then the Kohathites set out, carrying the holy things. (The tabernacle would be prepared for their arrival.)

22 And the standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim set out according to their armies; over their army was Elishama the son of Ammihud.

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

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

25 Then the standard of the camp of the children of Dan (the rear guard of all the camps) set out according to their armies; over their army was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.

26 Over the army of the tribe of the children of Asher was Pagiel the son of Ocran.

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

28 Thus was the order of march of the children of Israel, according to their armies, when they began their journey.

29 Now Moses said to Hobab the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law, "We are setting out for 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 promised good things to Israel."

30 And he said to him, "I will not go, but I will depart to my own land and to my relatives."

31 So Moses said, "Please do not leave, inasmuch as you know how we are to camp in the wilderness, and you can be our eyes.

32 And it shall be, if you go with us--indeed it shall be--that whatever good the Lord will do to us, the same we will do to you."

33 So they departed from the mountain of the Lord on a journey of three days; and the ark of the covenant of the Lord went before them for the three days' journey, to search out a resting place for them.

34 And the cloud of the Lord was above them by day when they went out from the camp.

35 So it was, whenever the ark set out, that Moses said: "Rise up, O Lord! Let Your enemies be scattered, And let those who hate You flee before You."

36 And when it rested, he said: "Return, O Lord, To the many thousands of Israel."
