民數記 10
1 上主訓示梅瑟說：「
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 你要製造兩個喇叭，用銀打成，用為召集會眾，為遷疑營幕。
Make thee two trumpets of silver, of beaten work thou shall make them. And thou shall use them for the calling of the congregation, and for the journeying of the camps.
3 幾時吹兩個喇叭，全會眾都應集合在會幕門口，來到你跟前。
And when they shall blow them, all the congregation shall gather themselves to thee at the door of the tent of meeting.
4 若只吹一個喇叭，以色列的千夫長，作首領的應集合到你跟前。
And if they blow but one, then the rulers, the heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves to thee.
5 若吹緊急號，紮在東方的營就起程；
And when ye blow an alarm, the camps that lie on the east side shall take their journey.
6 第二次吹緊急號時，紮在南方的營就起程：吹緊急號是為叫他們起程；
And when ye blow an alarm the second time, the camps that lie on the south side shall take their journey. They shall blow an alarm for their journeys.
7 但為召集會眾，只吹號，不應緊急吹。
But when the assembly is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm.
8 亞郎的子孫作司祭的應吹號：這為你們世世代代是條永久的規定。
And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets, and they shall be to you for a statute forever throughout your generations.
9 幾時你們在本國要出去作戰，攻打來侵的仇敵，應吹緊急號，使上主你們的天主，記得你們，救你們脫離仇敵。
And when ye go to war in your land against the adversary that oppresses you, then ye shall sound an alarm with the trumpets. And ye shall be remembered before Jehovah your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.
10 此外，在你們的慶日、節日、月朔之日，獻全燔祭及和平祭時，還應吹號，使你們的天主記得你們：我是上主，你們的天主。」
Also in the day of your gladness, and in your set feasts, and in the beginnings of your months, ye shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings. And they shall be to you for a memorial before your God: I am Jehovah your God.
11 第二年二月二十日，雲彩由會幕升起，
And it came to pass in the second year, in the second month, on the twentieth day of the month, that the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle of the testimony.
12 以色列子民就從西乃曠野循序起程出發。以後雲採在帕蘭曠野停住了。
And the sons of Israel set forward according to their journeys out of the wilderness of Sinai, and the cloud abode in the wilderness of Paran.
13 他們初次依照上主藉梅瑟所出的命令起程。
And they first took their journey according to the commandment of Jehovah by Moses.
14 首先依隊起程的，是猶大子孫的營旗，率領軍隊的，是阿米納達布的兒子納赫雄；
And in the first place the standard of the camp of the sons of Judah set forward according to their armies, and over his army was Nahshon the son of Amminadab.
15 率領依撒加爾子孫支派軍隊的，是族阿爾的兒子乃塔乃耳；
And over the army of the tribe of the sons of Issachar was Nethanel the son of Zuar.
16 率領則步隆子孫支派軍隊的，是厄隆的兒子厄里雅布。
And over the army of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun was Eliab the son of Helon.
17 拆下帳幕後，革爾雄的子孫和默辣黎的子孫，就抬著帳幕起程出發。
And the tabernacle was taken down, and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari, who bore the tabernacle, set forward.
18 以後依隊出發的，是勒烏本的營旗，率領軍隊的是，舍德烏爾的兒子厄里族爾；
And the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according to their armies, and over his army was Elizur the son of Shedeur.
19 率領西默盎子孫支派軍隊的，是族黎沙待的兒子舍路米耳；
And over the army of the tribe of the sons of Simeon was Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.
20 率領加得子孫支派軍隊的，是勒烏耳的兒子厄里亞撒夫。
And over the army of the tribe of the sons of Gad was Eliasaph the son of Deuel.
21 此後刻哈特人抬著聖所之物起程；當他們達到時，人應已豎起帳幕。
And the Kohathites set forward, bearing the sanctuary, and the others set up the tabernacle until their coming.
22 以後依隊出發的，是厄弗辣因子孫的營旗，率領軍隊的，是阿米胡得的兒子厄里沙瑪；
And the standard of the camp of the sons of Ephraim set forward according to their armies, and over his army was Elishama the son of Ammihud.
23 率領默納協子孫支派軍隊的，是培達族爾的兒子加默里耳；
And over the army of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh was Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur.
24 率領本雅明子孫支派軍隊的，是基德敖尼的兒子阿彼丹。
And over the army of the tribe of the sons of Benjamin was Abidan the son of Gideoni.
25 以後依隊出發的，是作全營後衛的丹子孫的營旗，率領軍隊的，是阿米沙待的兒子阿希厄則爾；
And the standard of the camp of the sons of Dan, which was the rearward of all the camps, set forward according to their armies, and over his army was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.
26 率領阿協爾子孫支派軍隊的，是敖革蘭的兒子帕革厄耳；
And over the army of the tribe of the sons of Asher was Pagiel the son of Ochran.
27 率領納斐塔里子孫支派軍隊的，是厄南的兒子阿希辣。
And over the army of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali was Ahira the son of Enan.
28 這是以色列子民出發時，依隊起程的次序。
Thus were the journeys of the sons of Israel according to their armies, and they set forward.
29 梅瑟對自己的岳父，米德楊人勒烏耳的兒子曷巴布說：「我們正要起程往上主曾說：「我要給你們的那地方」去；你同我們一起去罷! 我們必要好待你，因為上主對以色列許下了幸福。」
And Moses said to Hobab, the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law, We are journeying to the place of which Jehovah said, I will give it to you. Come thou with us, and we will do thee good, for Jehovah has spoken good concerning Israel.
30 曷巴布回答他說：「我不去，我要回到故鄉我的老家去。」
And he said to him, I will not go, but I will depart to my own land, and to my kindred.
31 梅瑟說請你不要離開我們! 因為你知道我們在曠野安營的地方，你要給我們當響導。
And he said, Leave us not, I pray thee, inasmuch as thou know how we are to encamp in the wilderness, and thou shall be to us instead of eyes.
32 你若同我們一起去，我們必使你分享上主要賜給我們的幸福。」
And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be, that whatever good Jehovah shall do to us, the same we will do to thee.
33 他們就由上主的山起程出發，行了三天的路程；三天的路程中，上主的約櫃走在他們的前面，為他們尋求休息的地方。
And they set forward from the mount of Jehovah three days' journey. And the ark of the covenant of Jehovah went before them three days' journey, to seek out a resting-place for them.
34 白天他們移營前行時，上主的雲彩常在他們頭上。
And the cloud of Jehovah was over them by day when they set forward from the camp.
35 當約櫃起行時，梅瑟就說：「上主，請你起來，使你的仇敵潰散，使懷恨你的由你面前逃走。」
And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said, Rise up, O Jehovah, and let thine enemies be scattered, and let those who hate thee flee before thee.
36 在約櫃停留時，他就說：「上主，請歸來，住在以色列千家萬戶中。」
And when it rested, he said, Return, O Jehovah, to the ten thousands of the thousands of Israel.
