Nu 10:1 And the Lord spake
unto Moses, saying,
Nu 10:2 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.
Nu 10:3 And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall
assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation.
Nu 10:4 And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, which are
heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee.
Nu 10:5 When ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east parts
shall go forward.
Nu 10:6 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.
Nu 10:7 But when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall
blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm.
Nu 10:8 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.
Nu 10:9 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.
Nu 10:10 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.
Nu 10:11 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.
Nu 10:12 And the children of Israel took their journeys out of the
wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Paran.
Nu 10:13 And they first took their journey according to the commandment of
the Lord by the hand of Moses.
Nu 10:14 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.
Nu 10:15 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Issachar was
Nethaneel the son of Zuar.
Nu 10:16 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was
Eliab the son of Helon.
Nu 10:17 And the tabernacle was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and
the sons of Merari set forward, bearing the tabernacle.
Nu 10:18 And the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according to
their armies: and over his host was Elizur the son of Shedeur.
Nu 10:19 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Simeon was
Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.
Nu 10:20 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Gad was
Eliasaph the son of Deuel.
Nu 10:21 And the Kohathites set forward, bearing the sanctuary: and the
other did set up the tabernacle against they came.
Nu 10:22 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.
Nu 10:23 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh was
Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur.
Nu 10:24 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was
Abidan the son of Gideoni.
Nu 10:25 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.
Nu 10:26 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher was
Pagiel the son of Ocran.
Nu 10:27 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was
Ahira the son of Enan.
Nu 10:28 Thus were the journeyings of the children of Israel according to
their armies, when they set forward.
Nu 10:29 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.
Nu 10:30 And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine
own land, and to my kindred.
Nu 10:31 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.
Nu 10:32 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.
Nu 10:33 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.
Nu 10:34 And the cloud of the Lord was upon them by day, when they went
out of the camp.
Nu 10:35 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.
Nu 10:36 And when it rested, he said, Return, O Lord, unto the many
thousands of Israel. |
