When they are sounded, all the people are to come together to you at the door of the Tent of meeting.
4
If only one of them is sounded, then the chiefs, the heads of the thousands of Israel, are to come to you.
5
When a loud note is sounded, the tents placed on the east side are to go forward.
6
At the sound of a second loud note, the tents on the south side are to go forward: the loud note will be the sign to go forward.
7
But when all the people are to come together, the horn is to be sounded but not loudly.
8
The horns are to be sounded by the sons of Aaron, the priests; this is to be a law for you for ever, from generation to generation.
9
And if you go to war in your land against any who do you wrong, then let the loud note of the horn be sounded; and the Lord your God will keep you in mind and give you salvation from those who are against you.
10
And on days of joy and on your regular feasts and on the first day of every month, let the horns be sounded over your burned offerings and your peace-offerings; and they will put the Lord in mind of you: I am the Lord your God.
11
Now in the second year, on the twentieth day of the second month, the cloud was taken up from over the Tent of witness.
12
And the children of Israel went on their journey out of the waste land of Sinai; and the cloud came to rest in the waste land of Paran.
13
They went forward for the first time on their journey as the Lord had given orders by the hand of Moses.
