< 民数记 10 >
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 “你要用银子做两枝号,都要锤出来的,用以招聚会众,并叫众营起行。
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 吹这号的时候,全会众要到你那里,聚集在会幕门口。
And when they shall blow them, all the congregation shall gather themselves to thee at the door of the tent of meeting.
4 若单吹一枝,众首领,就是以色列军中的统领,要聚集到你那里。
And if they blow but one, then the rulers, the heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves to thee.
And when ye blow an alarm, the camps that lie on the east side shall take their journey.
6 二次吹出大声的时候,南边安的营都要起行。他们将起行,必吹出大声。
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 但招聚会众的时候,你们要吹号,却不要吹出大声。
But when the assembly is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm.
8 亚伦子孙作祭司的要吹这号;这要作你们世世代代永远的定例。
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 你们在自己的地,与欺压你们的敌人打仗,就要用号吹出大声,便在耶和华—你们的 神面前得蒙纪念,也蒙拯救脱离仇敌。
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 在你们快乐的日子和节期,并月朔,献燔祭和平安祭,也要吹号,这都要在你们的 神面前作为纪念。我是耶和华—你们的 神。”
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.

32 你若和我们同去,将来耶和华有什么好处待我们,我们也必以什么好处待你。”
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.
