1: And the Lord said to Moses, 2: Make two silver horns of hammered work, to be used for getting the people together and to give the sign for the moving of the tents. 3: When they are sounded, all the people are to come together to you at the door of the Tent of meeting. 4: If only one of them is sounded, then the chiefs, the heads of the thousands of Israel, are to come to you. 5: When a loud note is sounded, the tents placed on the east side are to go forward. 6: At the sound of a second loud note, the tents on the south side are to go forward: the loud note will be the sign to go forward. 7: But when all the people are to come together, the horn is to be sounded but not loudly. 8: The horns are to be sounded by the sons of Aaron, the priests; this is to be a law for you for ever, from generation to generation. 9: And if you go to war in your land against any who do you wrong, then let the loud note of the horn be sounded; and the Lord your God will keep you in mind and give you salvation from those who are against you. 10: And on days of joy and on your regular feasts and on the first day of every month, let the horns be sounded over your burned offerings and your peace-offerings; and they will put the Lord in mind of you: I am the Lord your God. 11: Now in the second year, on the twentieth day of the second month, the cloud was taken up from over the Tent of witness. 12: And the children of Israel went on their journey out of the waste land of Sinai; and the cloud came to rest in the waste land of Paran. 13: They went forward for the first time on their journey as the Lord had given orders by the hand of Moses. 14: First the flag of the children of Judah went forward with their armies: and at the head of his army was Nahshon, the son of Amminadab. 15: And at the head of the army of the children of Issachar was Nethanel, the son of Zuar. 16: And at the head of the army of the children of Zebulun was Eliab, the son of Helon. 17: Then the House was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari, who were responsible for moving the House, went forward. 18: Then the flag of the children of Reuben went forward with their armies: and at the head of his army was Elizur, the son of Shedeur. 19: And at the head of the army of the children of Simeon was Shelumiel, the son of Zurishaddai. 20: At the head of the army of the children of Gad was Eliasaph, the son of Reuel. 21: Then the Kohathites went forward with the holy place; the others put up the House ready for their coming. 22: Then the flag of the children of Ephraim went forward with their armies: and at the head of his army was Elishama, the son of Ammihud. 23: At the head of the army of the children of Manasseh was Gamaliel, the son of Pedahzur. 24: At the head of the army of the children of Benjamin was Abidan, the son of Gideoni. 25: And the flag of the children of Dan, whose tents were moved last of all, went forward with their armies: and at the head of his army was Ahiezer, the son of Ammishaddai. 26: At the head of the army of the children of Asher was Pagiel, the son of Ochran. 27: And at the head of the army of the children of Naphtali was Ahira, the son of Enan. 28: This was the order in which the children of Israel were journeying by armies; so they went forward. 29: Then Moses said to Hobab, the son of his father-in-law Reuel the Midianite, We are journeying to that place of which the Lord has said, I will give it to you: so come with us, and it will be for your profit: for the Lord has good things in store for Israel. 30: But he said, I will not go with you, I will go back to the land of my birth and to my relations. 31: And he said, Do not go from us; for you will be eyes for us, guiding us to the right places in the waste land to put up our tents. 32: And if you come with us, we will give you a part in whatever good the Lord does for us. 33: So they went forward three days' journey from the mountain of the Lord; and the ark of the Lord's agreement went three days' journey before them, looking for a resting-place for them; 34: And by day the cloud of the Lord went over them, when they went forward from the place where they had put up their tents. 35: And when the ark went forward Moses said, Come up, O Lord, and let the armies of those who are against you be broken, and let your haters go in flight before you. 36: And when it came to rest, he said, Take rest, O Lord, and give a blessing to the families of Israel.
