1 Here are the stages in the journey of the Israelites when they came out of Egypt by divisions under the leadership of Moses and Aaron.
2
At the LORD’s command Moses recorded the stages in their journey. This is their journey by stages:
3
The Israelites set out from Rameses on the fifteenth day of the first month, the day after the Passover. They marched out defiantly in full view of all the Egyptians,
4
who were burying all their firstborn, whom the LORD had struck down among them; for the LORD had brought judgment on their gods.
5
The Israelites left Rameses and camped at Sukkoth.
6
They left Sukkoth and camped at Etham, on the edge of the desert.
7
They left Etham, turned back to Pi Hahiroth, to the east of Baal Zephon, and camped near Migdol.
8
They left Pi Hahiroth[a] and passed through the sea into the desert, and when they had traveled for three days in the Desert of Etham, they camped at Marah.
