4 Mosebog 10
1 Og Herren talede til Mose og sagde:
Yahweh also told Moses/me,
2 Gør dig to Basuner af Sølv, af drevet Arbejde skal du gøre dem; og du skal have dem til Menighedens Sammenkaldelse, og naar Lejrene skulle bryde op.
“[Tell someone to] make two trumpets by hammering each one from [one lump of] silver. Blow the trumpets to summon the people to come together and also to signal that they must move their tents [to a new location].
3 Og naar de blæse langsomt i dem, saa skal al Menigheden samles til dig, til Forsamlingens Pauluns Dør.
If both trumpets are blown, it means that everyone must gather together at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
4 Og dersom de blæse langsomt i den ene, da skulle Fyrsterne samles til dig, Øversterne for Israels Tusinder.
If only one trumpet is blown, it means that only the [twelve] leaders of the tribes must gather together.
5 Men naar I blæse stærkt, da skulle de Lejre bryde op, som have lejret sig mod Østen.
If the trumpets are blown loudly, the tribes that are to the east [of the Sacred Tent] should start to travel.
6 Og naar I blæse anden Gang stærkt, da skulle de Lejre bryde op, som have lejret sig mod Sønden; I skulle blæse stærkt, naar de skulle bryde op.
When the trumpets are blown loudly the second time, the tribes that are to the south should start to travel. The loud blasts on the trumpet will signal that they should start to travel.
7 Men naar Forsamlingen skal samles, skulle I blæse langsomt og ikke blæse stærkt.
When you want only to gather the people together, blow the trumpets, but do not blow them as loudly.
8 Og Præsterne, Arons Sønner, skulle blæse i Basunerne; og de skulle være eder til en evig Skik hos eders Efterkommere.
“The priests who are descended from Aaron are the ones who should blow the trumpets. That is a regulation that will never be changed.
9 Og naar I komme i Krig i eders Land med Fjenden, som ængster eder, da skulle I blæse stærkt i Basunerne, at I maa ihukommes for Herren eders Guds Ansigt og frelses fra eders Fjender.
When you fight against enemies who attack you in your own land, tell the priests to blow the trumpets loudly. I, Yahweh, your God, will hear that, and I will rescue you from your enemies.
10 Og paa eders Glædes Dag, og paa eders bestemte Tider, og paa eders Maaneders første Dage, da skulle I blæse i Basunerne ved eders Brændofre og ved eders Takofre, at de maa blive eder til en Ihukommelse for eders Guds Ansigt; jeg er Herren eders Gud.
Also tell the priests to blow the trumpets when the people are happy, and at the festivals [each year], and at the times when they celebrate the new moon each month. Tell them to blow the trumpets when the people bring offerings that will be completely burned, and when they bring offerings to maintain fellowship with me. If they do that, it will help you to remember that I, Yahweh your God, [will help you].”
11 Og det skete i det andet Aar, i den anden Maaned, paa den tyvende Dag i Maaneden, da hævede Skyen sig op fra Vidnesbyrdets Tabernakel.
On the twentieth day of May in the second year [after the/we Israelis left Egypt], the cloud rose up from above the Sacred Tent.
12 Og Israels Børn brøde op paa deres Vandringer fra Sinai Ørk; og Skyen blev i den Ørk Paran.
So we/the Israelis traveled from the Sinai Desert, and we/they continued traveling [north] until the cloud stopped in the Paran Desert.
13 Saa rejste de første Gang efter Herrens Mund ved Mose.
That was the first time we/they moved, obeying the instructions that Yahweh had given to Moses/me to tell them.
14 Og det Banner for Judas Børns Lejr brød først op, efter deres Hære; og over hans Hær var Nahesson, Amminadabs Søn.
The group that went first, carrying their flag/banner, was the group from the tribe of Judah. Nahshon, the son of Amminadab, was their leader.
15 Og over Isaskars Børns Stammes Hær var Nethaneel, Zuars Søn.
The group from the tribe of Issachar [followed them]. Nethanel, the son of Zuar, was their leader.
16 Og over Sebulons Børns Stammes Hær var Eliab, Helons Søn.
The group from the tribe of Zebulun went next. Eliab, the son of Helon, was their leader.
17 Og Tabernaklet blev nedtaget; og Gersons Børn og Merari Børn, som bare Tabernaklet, brøde op.
Then they dismantled the Sacred Tent, and the descendants of Gershon and Merari carried it, and they went next.
18 Dernæst brød det Banner for Rubens Lejr op, efter deres Hære; og over hans Hær var Elizur, Sedeurs Søn.
The group from the tribe of Reuben went next, carrying their flag. Elizur, the son of Shedeur, was their leader.

21 Saa rejste Kahathiterne, som bare Helligdommen; og de andre oprejste Tabernaklet, inden de kom.
The group descended from Kohath was next. They carried the sacred items from the Sacred Tent. The Sacred Tent itself was set up at the new location before they arrived there.
22 Dernæst brød det Banner for Efraims Børns Lejr op, efter deres Hære; og over hans Hær var Elisama, Ammihuds Søn.
The group from the tribe of Ephraim was next, carrying their flag. Elishama, the son of Ammihud, was their leader.
23 Og over Manasse Børns Stammes Hær var Gamliel, Pedazurs Søn.

24 Og over Benjamins Børns Stammes Hær var Abidan, Gideoni Søn.

25 Dernæst brød det Banner op for Dans Børns Lejr, som sluttede alle Lejrene, efter deres Hære, og over hans Hær var Ahieser, Ammisaddai Søn.
The ones who went last were the group from the tribe of Dan, carrying their flag. Ahiezer, the son of Ammishaddai, was their leader.
26 Og over Asers Børns Stammes Hær var Pagiel, Okrans Søn.
The group from the tribe of Asher went next. Pagiel, the son of Ocran, was their leader.
27 Og over Nafthali Børns Stammes Hær var Ahira, Enans Søn.
The group from the tribe of Naphtali went last. Ahira, the son of Enan, was their leader.
28 Dette var Israels Børns Rejseorden, efter deres Hære, naar de rejste.
That was the order in which the groups of Israeli tribes traveled.
29 Og Mose sagde til Hobab, Reuels den Midianiters Søn, Mose Svigerfader: Vi rejse til det Sted, om hvilket Herren sagde: Jeg vil give eder det; gaa med os, saa ville vi gøre vel imod dig, fordi Herren har talet godt over Israel.
One day Moses/I said to his/my brother-in-law Hobab, the son of Reuel from the Midian people-group, “We are on the way to the place that Yahweh promised to give to us. Come with us, and we will take good care of you, because Yahweh has promised [to do] good things for us Israeli people.”
30 Og denne sagde til ham: Jeg vil ikke gaa med, men jeg vil gaa til mit Land og til min Slægt.
But Hobab replied, “No, I will not go with you. I want to return to my own land and to my own family.”
31 Og han sagde: Kære, forlad os ikke; thi du ved, hvor vi kunne lejre os i Ørken, og du skal være vort Øje.
But Moses/I said, “Please do not leave us. You know the places where we can set up our tents in this desert, and you can guide us.
32 Og det skal ske, naar du gaar med os, da skulle vi med det samme Gode, hvormed Herren gør vel imod os, gøre vel imod dig.
Come with us. We will share with you all the good things that Yahweh gives to us.”
33 Saa rejste de fra Herrens Bjerg tre Dages Rejse; og Herrens Pagtes Ark rejste for deres Ansigt tre Dages Rejse for at opsøge et Hvilested for dem.
[So Hobab agreed to go with them]. The Israelis left Sinai Mountain, [which they called] Yahweh’s Mountain, and they walked for three days. The [men carrying the] sacred chest went in front of the other people for those three days, and they kept looking for a place to set up their tents.
34 Og Herrens Sky var over dem om Dagen, naar de brøde op med Lejren.
The cloud sent by Yahweh was over them every day.
35 Og det skete, naar Arken rejste, da sagde Mose: Herre! staa op, saa skulle dine Fjender adspredes, og de, som hade dig, skulle fly for dit Ansigt.
Each morning when the men who were carrying the sacred chest started to walk, Moses/I said, “Yahweh, arise! Scatter your enemies! Cause those who hate you to run away from you!”
36 Og naar den hvilede, sagde han: Kom tilbage, Herre! til Israels ti Tusinde Gange tusinde.
And each time the men [stopped to] set down the sacred chest, Moses/I said, “Yahweh, stay close to the thousands of us Israelis!”
