Numbers 10

1 The Lord told Moses,

And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,

2 “Make two trumpets out of hammered silver. They are to be used for summoning the Israelites and to have the camp move out.

Make thee two trumpets of siluer: of an whole piece shalt thou make the, that thou mayest vse them for the assembling of the Congregation, and for the departure of the campe.

3 When both trumpets are blown, all the Israelites are to gather before you at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

And when they shall blowe with them, all the Congregation shall assemble to thee before the doore of the Tabernacle of the Cogregation.

4 But if only one is blown, then only the tribal leaders are to gather before you.

But if they blowe with one, then the princes, or heades ouer the thousandes of Israel shall come vnto thee.

5 When you blow the trumpet loudly, which is the alarm signal to move out, the camps on the east side are to march out first.

But if ye blow an alarme, then the campe of the that pitch on the East part, shall go forward.

6 When you blow the trumpet loudly the second time, the camps on the south side are to march out. That's their signal to start moving.

If ye blowe an alarme the second time, then the hoste of them that lie on the Southside shall march: for they shall blowe an alarme when they remoue.

7 To summon the people, blow the trumpets normally, not the loud alarm signal.

But in assembling the Congregation, ye shall blowe without an alarme.

8 Aaron's descendants are to blow the trumpets. This regulation is for all time and for all future generations.

And the sonnes of Aaron the Priest shall blowe the trumpets, and ye shall haue them as a lawe for euer in your generations.

9 When you're in your own land and have to go into battle against an enemy who has attacked you, blow the alarm signal and the Lord your God won't forget you—he will save you from your enemies.

And when ye goe to warre in your lande against the enemie that vexeth you, ye shall blowe an alarme with the trumpets, and ye shall bee remembred before the Lord your God, and shalbe saued from your enemies.

10 Blow the trumpets when you celebrate too, at your regular feasts and at the beginning of each month. This is when you give your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings which act as a reminder for you before your God. I am the Lord your God.”

Also in the day of your gladnesse, and in your feast dayes, and in the beginning of your moneths, ye shall also blow the trumpets ouer your burnt sacrifices, and ouer your peace offrings, that they may be a remembrance for you before your God: I am the Lord your God.

11 The cloud rose up from the Tabernacle of the Testimony on the twentieth day of the second month of the second year.

And in the seconde yeere, in the seconde moneth, and in the twentieth day of the moneth the cloude was taken vp from the Tabernacle of the Testimonie.

12 The Israelites left the Desert of Sinai and moved from place to place until the cloud stopped in the Desert of Paran.

And ye children of Israel departed on their iourneys out of the desart of Sinai, and the cloud rested in the wildernesse of Paran.

13 This was the first time they moved out following the Lord's command through Moses.

So they first tooke their iourney at the comandement of the Lord, by ye hand of Moses.

14 The tribal divisions of Judah went first, marching out under their flag, with Nahshon, son of Amminadab, in charge.

In the first place went the standerd of the hoste of the children of Iudah, according to their armies: and Nahshon the sonne of Amminabad was ouer his band.

17 Then the Tabernacle was dismantled, and the Gershonites and the Merarites set off, carrying it.

When the Tabernacle was taken downe, then the sonnes of Gershon, and the sonnes of Merari went forward bearing the Tabernacle.

18 Then came the divisions of Reuben who marched out under their flag, with Elizur, son of Shedeur, in charge.

21 Then the Kohathites set off, carrying the holy objects. The Tabernacle would be put up before they arrived.

The Kohathites also went forward and bare the Sanctuarie, and the former did set vp the Tabernacle against they came.

22 Then came the divisions of Ephraim who marched out under their flag, with Elishama, son of Ammihud in charge.

And ouer the bande of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira ye sonne of Enan.

28 This was the order in which the Israelite tribal divisions moved out.

These were the remouings of the children of Israel according to their armies, whe they marched.

29 Moses explained to Hobab, the son of Moses' father-in-law Reuel the Midianite, “We're leaving for the place of which the Lord promised, ‘I'm going to give it to you.’ Come with us, and we'll be good to you, because the Lord has promised good things to Israel.”

After, Moses said vnto Hobab ye sonne of Reuel the Midianite, ye father in law of Moses, We go into the place, of which ye Lord said, I will giue it you: Come thou with vs, and we wil doe thee good: for ye Lord hath promised good vnto Israel.

30 “No, I won't go—I'll return to my own country and my own people,” Hobab replied.

And he answered him, I will not goe: but I will depart to mine owne countrey, and to my kindred.

31 “Please don't abandon us now,” Moses said, “because you're the one who knows where we should camp in the desert and you can guide us.

Then he sayd, I pray thee, leaue vs not: for thou knowest our camping places in the wildernesse: therefore thou mayest be our guide.

32 If you come with us, whatever good things the Lord blesses us with we'll share with you.”

And if thou go with vs, what goodnes the Lord shall shew vnto vs, the same will we shewe vnto thee.

33 They left the mountain of the Lord to go on a three-day journey The Ark of the Lord's Agreement led the way for them during these three days to find a place for them to camp.

So they departed from the mount of the Lord, three dayes iourney: and the Arke of the couenant of the Lord went before them in the three dayes iourney, to searche out a resting place for them.

34 The cloud of the Lord was above them during day as they moved on from the camp.

And the cloude of the Lord was vpon the by day, when they went out of the campe.

35 Whenever the Ark was carried out, Moses would call out, “Stand up, Lord, and may your enemies be scattered, and may those who hate you run away from you.”

And when the Arke went forwarde, Moses saide, Rise vp, Lord, and let thine enemies bee scattered, and let them that hate thee, flee before thee.

36 Whenever it was set down, he would call out, “Return, Lord, to the thousands and thousands of the people of Israel.”

And when it rested, hee sayde, Returne, O Lord, to the many thousands of Israel.
