1The LORD said to Moses:

1The LORD also told Moses,

2"Make two trumpets of hammered silver, and use them for calling the community together and for having the camps set out.

2"Make two trumpets, crafting them from beaten silver, for use in calling the congregation together and for notifying the camps to set out for travel.

3When both are sounded, the whole community is to assemble before you at the entrance to the tent of meeting.

3Sound them when the whole assembly is to gather together at the entrance to the appointed place of meeting.

4If only one is sounded, the leaders--the heads of the clans of Israel--are to assemble before you.

4When one trumpet is blown, the elders and the heads of the thousands of the Israelis are to gather to you.

5When a trumpet blast is sounded, the tribes camping on the east are to set out.

5When you sound an alarm, the ones encamped on the east side are to begin to travel.

6At the sounding of a second blast, the camps on the south are to set out. The blast will be the signal for setting out.

6When you sound the alarm the second time, those encamped on the south are to begin to travel. Alarms are to be sounded for their travels.

7To gather the assembly, blow the trumpets, but not with the signal for setting out.

7But when you blow the trumpet to assemble the whole congregation, don't use the same sound as you do for sounding an alarm.

8"The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to blow the trumpets. This is to be a lasting ordinance for you and the generations to come.

8The descendants of Aaron the priest are to blow the trumpets. Have them do this for you permanently throughout your generations to come."

9When you go into battle in your own land against an enemy who is oppressing you, sound a blast on the trumpets. Then you will be remembered by the LORD your God and rescued from your enemies.

9"When you wage war in your land against an enemy who is hostile to you, you are to sound an alarm with the trumpets. Then you will be remembered before the face of the LORD your God and you will be delivered from your enemies.

10Also at your times of rejoicing--your appointed festivals and New Moon feasts--you are to sound the trumpets over your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, and they will be a memorial for you before your God. I am the LORD your God."

10At the beginning of the month, during your time of rejoicing at the appointed place, sound the trumpet over your burnt offering, then sacrifice your peace offering, since they are to be your memorial before the LORD your God. I am the LORD your God."

11On the twentieth day of the second month of the second year, the cloud lifted from above the tabernacle of the covenant law.

11On the twentieth day of the second month in the second year, the cloud was lifted up from the Tent of Meeting,

12Then the Israelites set out from the Desert of Sinai and traveled from place to place until the cloud came to rest in the Desert of Paran.

12so the Israelis set out from the Sinai Wilderness until the cloud settled in the Paran Wilderness,

13They set out, this first time, at the LORD's command through Moses.

28This was the order of march for the Israelite divisions as they set out.

28This was the travel order for the Israelis, whenever their companies traveled.

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

29Then Moses told Reuel's son Hobab, Moses' relative by marriage from Midian, "We are traveling to the place about which the LORD said 'I will give it to you.' So come with us and we'll be good to you, because the LORD has spoken good things about Israel."

30He answered, "No, I will not go; I am going back to my own land and my own people."

30But he said, "I won't go with you because I'm returning to my land and to my own family."

31But Moses said, "Please do not leave us. You know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you can be our eyes.

31Then Moses responded, "Please don't leave us now, since you know where we can camp in the wilderness. You could be our guide.

32If you come with us, we will share with you whatever good things the LORD gives us."

32And when you come with us, the good things that the LORD will grant us, we'll give you as well."

33So they set out from the mountain of the LORD and traveled for three days. The ark of the covenant of the LORD went before them during those three days to find them a place to rest.

33So they traveled from the mountain of the LORD, a three-day trip, with the Ark of the Covenant of the LORD traveling in front of them—a three day trip to explore a place for them to rest.

34The cloud of the LORD was over them by day when they set out from the camp.

34Moreover, the cloud of the LORD protected them during the day when they left their camp.

35Whenever the ark set out, Moses said, "Rise up, LORD! May your enemies be scattered; may your foes flee before you."

35Whenever the ark was ready to travel, Moses would say: "Arise, LORD, to scatter your enemies, so that whoever hates you will flee from your presence."

36Whenever it came to rest, he said, "Return, LORD, to the countless thousands of Israel."

36Whenever the ark was being readied to rest, he would say: "Return, LORD, to the countless thousands of Israel."
