Chapter 10
|
1
|
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, |
2
|
Make thee two trumpets of silver; of a whole piece shalt
thou make them: that thou mayest use them for the calling
of the assembly, and for the journeying of the camps. |
3
|
And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly
shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle
of the congregation. |
4
|
And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes,
which are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather
themselves unto thee. |
5
|
When ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the
east parts shall go forward. |
6
|
When ye blow an alarm the second time, then the camps
that lie on the south side shall take their journey: they
shall blow an alarm for their journeys. |
7
|
But when the congregation is to be gathered together,
ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm. |
8
|
And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the
trumpets; and they shall be to you for an ordinance for
ever throughout your generations. |
9
|
And if ye go to war in your land against the enemy that
oppresseth you, then ye shall blow an alarm with the trumpets;
and ye shall be remembered before the LORD your God, and
ye shall be saved from your enemies. |
10
|
Also in the day of your gladness, and in your solemn
days, and in the beginnings of your months, ye shall blow
with the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the
sacrifices of your peace offerings; that they may be to
you for a memorial before your God: I am the LORD your
God. |
11
|
And it came to pass on the twentieth day of the second
month, in the second year, that the cloud was taken up
from off the tabernacle of the testimony. |
12
|
And the children of Israel took their journeys out of
the wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud rested in the wilderness
of Paran. |
13
|
And they first took their journey according to the commandment
of the LORD by the hand of Moses. |
14
|
In the first place went the standard of the camp of the
children of Judah according to their armies: and over his
host was Nahshon the son of Amminadab. |
15
|
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Issachar
was Nethaneel the son of Zuar. |
16
|
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Zebulun
was Eliab the son of Helon. |
17
|
And the tabernacle was taken down; and the sons of Gershon
and the sons of Merari set forward, bearing the tabernacle. |
18
|
And the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according
to their armies: and over his host was Elizur the son of
Shedeur. |
19
|
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Simeon
was Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai. |
20
|
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Gad
was Eliasaph the son of Deuel. |
21
|
And the Kohathites set forward, bearing the sanctuary:
and the other did set up the tabernacle against they came. |
22
|
And the standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim
set forward according to their armies: and over his host
was Elishama the son of Ammihud. |
23
|
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh
was Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur. |
24
|
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Benjamin
was Abidan the son of Gideoni. |
25
|
And the standard of the camp of the children of Dan set
forward, which was the rearward of all the camps throughout
their hosts: and over his host was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai. |
26
|
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher
was Pagiel the son of Ocran. |
27
|
And over the host of the tribe of the children of Naphtali
was Ahira the son of Enan. |
28
|
Thus were the journeyings of the children of Israel according
to their armies, when they set forward. |
29
|
And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Raguel the Midianite,
Moses' father in law, We are journeying unto the place
of which the LORD said, I will give it you: come thou with
us, and we will do thee good: for the LORD hath spoken
good concerning Israel. |
30
|
And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart
to mine own land, and to my kindred. |
31
|
And he said, Leave us not, I pray thee; forasmuch as
thou knowest how we are to encamp in the wilderness, and
thou mayest be to us instead of eyes. |
32
|
And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be,
that what goodness the LORD shall do unto us, the same
will we do unto thee. |
33
|
And they departed from the mount of the LORD three days'
journey: and the ark of the covenant of the LORD went before
them in the three days' journey, to search out a resting
place for them. |
34
|
And the cloud of the LORD was upon them by day, when
they went out of the camp. |
35
|
And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses
said, Rise up, LORD, and let thine enemies be scattered;
and let them that hate thee flee before thee. |
36
|
And when it rested, he said, Return, O LORD, unto the
many thousands of Israel. |
