اَلْعَدَد 10

١ 1 وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

Then the LORD said to Moses,

٢ 2 «ٱصْنَعْ لَكَ بُوقَيْنِ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ. مَسْحُولَيْنِ تَعْمَلُهُمَا، فَيَكُونَانِ لَكَ لِمُنَادَاةِ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ وَلِٱرْتِحَالِ ٱلْمَحَلَّاتِ.

“Make two trumpets of hammered silver to be used for calling the congregation and for having the camps set out.

٣ 3 فَإِذَا ضَرَبُوا بِهِمَا يَجْتَمِعُ إِلَيْكَ كُلُّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ إِلَى بَابِ خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ.

When both are sounded, the whole congregation is to assemble before you at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

٤ 4 وَإِذَا ضَرَبُوا بِوَاحِدٍ يَجْتَمِعُ إِلَيْكَ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءُ، رُؤُوسُ أُلُوفِ إِسْرَائِيلَ.

But if only one is sounded, then the leaders, the heads of the clans of Israel, are to gather before you.

٥ 5 وَإِذَا ضَرَبْتُمْ هُتَافًا تَرْتَحِلُ ٱلْمَحَلَّاتُ ٱلنَّازِلَةُ إِلَى ٱلشَّرْقِ.

When you sound short blasts, the camps that lie on the east side are to set out.

٦ 6 وَإِذَا ضَرَبْتُمْ هُتَافًا ثَانِيَةً تَرْتَحِلُ ٱلْمَحَلَّاتُ ٱلنَّازِلَةُ إِلَى ٱلْجَنُوبِ. هُتَافًا يَضْرِبُونَ لِرِحْلَاتِهِمْ.

When you sound the short blasts a second time, the camps that lie on the south side are to set out. The blasts are to signal them to set out.

٧ 7 وَأَمَّا عِنْدَمَا تَجْمَعُونَ ٱلْجَمَاعَةَ فَتَضْرِبُونَ وَلَا تَهْتِفُونَ.

To convene the assembly, you are to sound long blasts, not short ones.

٨ 8 وَبَنُو هَارُونَ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ يَضْرِبُونَ بِٱلْأَبْوَاقِ. فَتَكُونُ لَكُمْ فَرِيضَةً أَبَدِيَّةً فِي أَجْيَالِكُمْ.

The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to sound the trumpets. This shall be a permanent statute for you and the generations to come.

٩ 9 وَإِذَا ذَهَبْتُمْ إِلَى حَرْبٍ فِي أَرْضِكُمْ عَلَى عَدُوٍّ يَضُرُّ بِكُمْ، تَهْتِفُونَ بِٱلْأَبْوَاقِ، فَتُذْكَرُونَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكُمْ، وَتُخَلَّصُونَ مِنْ أَعْدَائِكُمْ.

When you enter into battle in your land against an adversary who attacks you, sound short blasts on the trumpets, and you will be remembered before the LORD your God and saved from your enemies.

١٠ 10 وَفِي يَوْمِ فَرَحِكُمْ، وَفِي أَعْيَادِكُمْ وَرُؤُوسِ شُهُورِكُمْ، تَضْرِبُونَ بِٱلْأَبْوَاقِ عَلَى مُحْرَقَاتِكُمْ وَذَبَائِحِ سَلَامَتِكُمْ، فَتَكُونُ لَكُمْ تَذْكَارًا أَمَامَ إِلَهِكُمْ. أَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ».

And on your joyous occasions, your appointed feasts, and the beginning of each month, you are to blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings to serve as a reminder for you before your God. I am the LORD your God.”

١١ 11 وَفِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّانِي، فِي ٱلْعِشْرِينَ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ، ٱرْتَفَعَتِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ عَنْ مَسْكَنِ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ.

On the twentieth day of the second month of the second year, the cloud was lifted from above the tabernacle of the Testimony,

١٢ 12 فَٱرْتَحَلَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي رِحْلَاتِهِمْ مِنْ بَرِّيَّةِ سِينَاءَ، فَحَلَّتِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ فِي بَرِّيَّةِ فَارَانَ.

and the Israelites set out from the Wilderness of Sinai, traveling from place to place until the cloud settled in the Wilderness of Paran.

١٣ 13 ٱرْتَحَلُوا أَوَّلًا حَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَنْ يَدِ مُوسَى.

They set out this first time according to the LORD’s command through Moses.

١٤ 14 فَٱرْتَحَلَتْ رَايَةُ مَحَلَّةِ بَنِي يَهُوذَا أَوَّلًا حَسَبَ أَجْنَادِهِمْ، وَعَلَى جُنْدِهِ نَحْشُونُ بْنُ عَمِّينَادَابَ،

First, the divisions of the camp of Judah set out under their standard, with Nahshon son of Amminadab in command.

١٥ 15 وَعَلَى جُنْدِ سِبْطِ بَنِي يَسَّاكَرَ نَثَنَائِيلُ بْنُ صُوغَرَ،

Nethanel son of Zuar was over the division of the tribe of Issachar,

١٦ 16 وَعَلَى جُنْدِ سِبْطِ بَنِي زَبُولُونَ أَلِيآبُ بْنُ حِيلُونَ.

and Eliab son of Helon was over the division of the tribe of Zebulun.

١٧ 17 ثُمَّ أُنْزِلَ ٱلْمَسْكَنُ فَٱرْتَحَلَ بَنُو جَرْشُونَ وَبَنُو مَرَارِي حَامِلِينَ ٱلْمَسْكَنَ.

Then the tabernacle was taken down, and the Gershonites and the Merarites set out, transporting it.

١٨ 18 ثُمَّ ٱرْتَحَلَتْ رَايَةُ مَحَلَّةِ رَأُوبَيْنَ حَسَبَ أَجْنَادِهِمْ، وَعَلَى جُنْدِهِ أَلِيصُورُ بْنُ شَدَيْئُورَ،

Then the divisions of the camp of Reuben set out under their standard, with Elizur son of Shedeur in command.

١٩ 19 وَعَلَى جُنْدِ سِبْطِ بَنِي شِمْعُونَ شَلُومِيئِيلُ بْنُ صُورِيشَدَّاي،

Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai was over the division of the tribe of Simeon,

٢٠ 20 وَعَلَى جُنْدِ سِبْطِ بَنِي جَادَ أَلِيَاسَافُ بْنُ دَعُوئِيلَ.

and Eliasaph son of Deuel was over the division of the tribe of Gad.

٢١ 21 ثُمَّ ٱرْتَحَلَ ٱلْقَهَاتِيُّونَ حَامِلِينَ ٱلْمَقْدِسَ. وَأُقِيمَ ٱلْمَسْكَنُ إِلَى أَنْ جَاءُوا

Then the Kohathites set out, transporting the holy objects; the tabernacle was to be set up before their arrival.

٢٢ 22 ثُمَّ ٱرْتَحَلَتْ رَايَةُ مَحَلَّةِ بَنِي أَفْرَايِمَ حَسَبَ أَجْنَادِهِمْ، وَعَلَى جُنْدِهِ أَلِيشَمَعُ بْنُ عَمِّيهُودَ،

Next, the divisions of the camp of Ephraim set out under their standard, with Elishama son of Ammihud in command.

٢٣ 23 وَعَلَى جُنْدِ سِبْطِ بَنِي مَنَسَّى جَمْلِيئِيلُ بْنُ فَدَهْصُورَ،

Gamaliel son of Pedahzur was over the division of the tribe of Manasseh,

٢٤ 24 وَعَلَى جُنْدِ سِبْطِ بَنِي بَنْيَامِينَ أَبِيدَنُ بْنُ جِدْعُونِي.

and Abidan son of Gideoni was over the division of the tribe of Benjamin.

٢٥ 25 ثُمَّ ٱرْتَحَلَتْ رَايَةُ مَحَلَّةِ بَنِي دَانَ سَاقَةِ جَمِيعِ ٱلْمَحَلَّاتِ حَسَبَ أَجْنَادِهِمْ، وَعَلَى جُنْدِهِ أَخِيعَزَرُ بْنُ عَمِّيشَدَّاي،

Finally, the divisions of the camp of Dan set out under their standard, serving as the rear guard for all units, with Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai in command.

٢٦ 26 وَعَلَى جُنْدِ سِبْطِ بَنِي أَشِيرَ فَجْعِيئِيلُ بْنُ عُكْرَنَ.

Pagiel son of Ocran was over the division of the tribe of Asher,

٢٧ 27 وَعَلَى جُنْدِ سِبْطِ بَنِي نَفْتَالِي أَخِيرَعُ بْنُ عِينَنَ.

and Ahira son of Enan was over the division of the tribe of Naphtali.

٢٨ 28 هَذِهِ رِحْلَاتُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ بِأَجْنَادِهِمْ حِينَ ٱرْتَحَلُوا.

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

٢٩ 29 وَقَالَ مُوسَى لِحُوبَابَ بْنِ رَعُوئِيلَ ٱلْمِدْيَانِيِّ حَمِي مُوسَى: «إِنَّنَا رَاحِلُونَ إِلَى ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ أُعْطِيكُمْ إِيَّاهُ. اِذْهَبْ مَعَنَا فَنُحْسِنَ إِلَيْكَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ قَدْ تَكَلَّمَ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِٱلْإِحْسَانِ».

Then Moses said to Hobab, the son of Moses’ father-in-law Reuel the Midianite, “We are setting out for the place of 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.”

٣٠ 30 فَقَالَ لَهُ: «لَا أَذْهَبُ، بَلْ إِلَى أَرْضِي وَإِلَى عَشِيرَتِي أَمْضِي».

“I will not go,” Hobab replied. “Instead, I am going back to my own land and my own people.”

٣١ 31 فَقَالَ: «لَا تَتْرُكْنَا، لِأَنَّهُ بِمَا أَنَّكَ تَعْرِفُ مَنَازِلَنَا فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ تَكُونُ لَنَا كَعُيُونٍ.

“Please do not leave us,” Moses said, “since you know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you can serve as our eyes.

٣٢ 32 وَإِنْ ذَهَبْتَ مَعَنَا فَبِنَفْسِ ٱلْإِحْسَانِ ٱلَّذِي يُحْسِنُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَيْنَا نُحْسِنُ نَحْنُ إِلَيْكَ».

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

٣٣ 33 فَٱرْتَحَلُوا مِنْ جَبَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ مَسِيرَةَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ، وَتَابُوتُ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ رَاحِلٌ أَمَامَهُمْ مَسِيرَةَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ لِيَلْتَمِسَ لَهُمْ مَنْزِلًا.

So they set out on a three-day journey from the mountain of the LORD, with the ark of the covenant of the LORD traveling ahead of them for those three days to seek a resting place for them.

٣٤ 34 وَكَانَتْ سَحَابَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَيْهِمْ نَهَارًا فِي ٱرْتِحَالِهِمْ مِنَ ٱلْمَحَلَّةِ.

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

٣٥ 35 وَعِنْدَ ٱرْتِحَالِ ٱلتَّابُوتِ كَانَ مُوسَى يَقُولُ: «قُمْ يَا رَبُّ، فَلْتَتَبَدَّدْ أَعْدَاؤُكَ وَيَهْرُبْ مُبْغِضُوكَ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ».

Whenever the ark set out, Moses would say, “Rise up, O LORD! May Your enemies be scattered; may those who hate You flee before You.”

٣٦ 36 وَعِنْدَ حُلُولِهِ كَانَ يَقُولُ: «ٱرْجِعْ يَا رَبُّ إِلَى رِبَوَاتِ أُلُوفِ إِسْرَائِيلَ».

And when it came to rest, he would say: “Return, O LORD, to the countless thousands of Israel.”
