Numbers:10
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And the LORD spoke unto Moses ,
saying ,
*
Make thee two trumpets of silver ;
of beaten work shalt thou make them that thou may use them for the convocation of the congregation and for the moving of the camp .
*
And when they shall blow them ,
all the congregation shall join themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony .
*
But when they blow [
only ]
one ,
then the princes , [
who are ]
heads of the thousands of Israel ,
shall gather themselves unto thee .
*
When ye blow an alarm ,
then ye shall move the camp of those that are lodged towards the east .
*
And when ye blow an alarm the second time ,
then ye shall move the camp of those that are lodged on the side of the Negev ;
they shall blow an alarm for their journeys .
*
But when the congregation is to be gathered together ,
ye shall blow ,
but ye shall not sound an alarm .
*
And the sons of Aaron ,
the priests ,
shall blow the trumpets ;
and you shall have them as a perpetual statute throughout your generations .
*
And when ye go to war in your land against the enemy that oppresses 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 .
*
Also in the day of your gladness and in your solemn days and in the beginnings of your months ,
ye shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace ,
that they may be to you for a memorial before your God ;
I AM your God .
*
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 .
*
And the sons of Israel moved out of the wilderness of Sinai ,
and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Paran .
*
And they moved the first time according to the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses .
*
In the first [
place ]
went the standard of the camp of the sons of Judah according to their armies ,
and over his host [
was ]
Nahshon ,
the son of Amminadab .
*
And over the host of the tribe of the sons of Issachar [
was ]
Nethaneel ,
the son of Zuar .
*
And over the host of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun [
was ]
Eliab ,
the son of Helon .
*
And the tabernacle was already taken down ,
and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari set forward ,
bearing the tabernacle .
*
Then the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according to their armies ,
and over his host [
was ]
Elizur ,
the son of Shedeur .
*
And over the host of the tribe of the sons of Simeon [
was ]
Shelumiel ,
the son of Zurishaddai .
*
And over the host of the tribe of the sons of Gad [
was ]
Eliasaph ,
the son of Deuel .
*
Then the Kohathites set forward ,
bearing the sanctuary ,
and while they were coming , [
the others ]
set up the tabernacle .
*
After them the standard of the camp of the sons of Ephraim set forward according to their armies ,
and over his host [
was ]
Elishama ,
the son of Ammihud .
*
And over the host of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh [
was ]
Gamaliel ,
the son of Pedahzur .
*
And over the host of the tribe of the sons of Benjamin [
was ]
Abidan ,
the son of Gideoni .
*
Then the standard of the camp of the sons of Dan set forward according to their armies ,
gathering together all the camps ,
and over his host [
was ]
Ahiezer ,
the son of Ammishaddai .
*
And over the host of the tribe of the sons of Asher [
was ]
Pagiel ,
the son of Ocran .
*
And over the host of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali was Ahira ,
the son of Enan .
*
Thus [
were ]
the journeyings of the sons of Israel according to their armies when they set forward .
*
Then 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 to you .
Come thou with us ,
and we will do thee good ;
for the LORD has spoken good concerning Israel .
*
And he said unto him ,
I will not go ;
but I will depart to my own land and to my kindred .
*
And he said ,
Leave us not ,
I pray thee ;
for thou knowest how we are to encamp in the wilderness ,
and thou shalt be to us instead of eyes .
*
And it shall be ,
if thou go with us ,
that when we come into the goodness that the LORD shall do unto us ,
that we will do thee good .
*
Thus 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 ,
searching out a resting place for them .
*
And the cloud of the LORD [
was ]
upon them by day ,
from when they went out of the camp .
*
And it came to pass ,
when the ark was moved ,
that Moses said ,
Rise up ,
LORD ,
and let thine enemies be scattered ,
and let those that hate thee flee before thee .
*
And when it rested ,
he said ,
Return ,
O LORD ,
unto the ten thousands of Israel .:
