4 Mosebok 10
1 Og Herren talte til Moses og sa:
The LORD spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Gjør dig to trompeter av sølv; i drevet arbeid skal du gjøre dem. Og du skal bruke dem når menigheten skal kalles sammen, og når leirene skal bryte op.
"Make two trumpets of silver. You shall make them of beaten work. You shall use them for the calling of the congregation, and for the journeying of the camps.
3 Når der støtes i dem begge, da skal hele menigheten samle sig hos dig ved inngangen til sammenkomstens telt.
When they blow them, all the congregation shall gather themselves to you at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
4 Støtes der bare i den ene, da skal høvdingene, overhodene for Israels tusener, samle sig hos dig.
But if they blow just one, then the leaders, the heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves to you.
5 Men når I blåser alarm, da skal de leire som ligger mot øst, bryte op.
When you blow an alarm, the camps that lie on the east side shall go forward.
6 Og når I blåser alarm annen gang, da skal de leire som ligger mot syd, bryte op. Alarm skal der blåses når de skal bryte op.
When you blow an alarm the second time, the camps that lie on the south side shall go forward. They shall blow an alarm for their journeys.
7 Men når menigheten skal kalles sammen, skal I støte i dem og ikke blåse alarm.
But when the assembly is to be gathered together, you shall blow, but you shall not sound an alarm.
8 Arons sønner, prestene, er det som skal blåse i trompetene. Dette skal være en evig lov for eder, fra slekt til slekt.
The sons of Aaron, the cohanim, shall blow the trumpets. This shall be to you for a statute forever throughout your generations.
9 Og når I drar i krig i eders land mot fiender som overfaller eder, da skal I blåse alarm med trompetene; og Herren eders Gud skal komme eder i hu, så I skal bli frelst fra eders fiender.
When you go to war in your land against the adversary who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets. Then you will be remembered before the LORD your God, and you will be saved from your enemies.
10 Og på eders gledesdager og eders høitider og eders nymånedager skal I støte i trompetene når I ofrer eders brennoffer og eders takkoffer, og de skal minne om eder for eders Guds åsyn; jeg er Herren eders Gud.
"Also in the day of your gladness, and in your set feasts, and in the beginnings of your months, you 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 the LORD your God."
11 Og det skjedde i det annet år i den annen måned, på den tyvende dag i måneden, da løftet skyen sig fra vidnesbyrdets tabernakel,

29 og Moses sa til midianitten Hobab, Re'uels sønn, Moses' svoger: Vi bryter nu op til det sted hvorom Herren har sagt: Jeg vil gi eder det. Kom med oss! Så vil vi gjøre vel imot dig; for Herren har lovt Israel alt hvad godt er.
Moses said to Hobab, the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' brother-in-law, "We are journeying to 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 spoken good concerning Israel."
30 Men han svarte: Jeg vil ikke gå med, jeg vil dra hjem til mitt land og min slekt.
He said to him, "I will not go; but I will depart to my own land, and to my relatives."
31 Da sa Moses: Å nei, forlat oss ikke! Du vet jo best hvor vi kan leire oss i ørkenen, og du skal være vårt øie;
He said, "Do not leave us, please; because you know how we are to camp in the wilderness, and you can be our eyes.
32 går du med oss, da vil vi la dig få godt av det gode som Herren gjør mot oss.
And it shall be, if you go with us, that it shall be that whatever good the LORD does to us, we will do the same to you."
33 Så drog de da fra Herrens berg tre dagsreiser frem; og Herrens pakts ark drog foran dem de tre dagsreiser for å søke et hvilested for dem.

34 Herrens sky var over dem om dagen når de brøt op fra leiren.
The cloud of the LORD was over them by day, when they set forward from the camp.
35 Og når arken brøt op, sa Moses: Reis dig, Herre, så dine fiender spredes, og de som hater dig, flyr for ditt åsyn!
It happened, when the ark went forward, that Moses said, "Rise up, LORD, and let your enemies be scattered. Let those who hate you flee before you."
36 Og når den hvilte, sa han: Kom tilbake, Herre, til Israels titusen tusener!
When it rested, he said, "Return, LORD, to the ten thousands of the thousands of Israel."
