4 Mosebok 10
1 Og Herren tala atter til Moses, og sagde:
And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 «Gjer deg tvo lurar av drive sylv! Deim skal du hava til å kalla lyden i hop med, og til å varsla folket når lægret skal flytjast.
Make thee two trumpets of beaten silver, wherewith thou mayest call together the multitude when the camp is to be removed.
3 Blæs de i båe, so skal heile lyden samla seg hjå deg framanfor møtetjelddøri;
And when thou shalt sound the trumpets, all the multitude shall gather unto thee to the door of the tabernacle of the covenant.
4 blæs de berre i ein, so skal styresmennerne, hovdingarne yver Israels-ætterne, samla seg hjå deg.
If thou sound but once, the princes and the heads of the multitude of Israel shall come to thee.
5 Blæs de alarm, so skal dei flokkarne fara i veg som hev lægret sitt i aust;
But if the sound of the trumpets be longer, and with interruptions, they that are on the east side, shall first go forward.
6 blæs de alarm andre venda, so skal dei som ligg i sud taka ut. Alarm skal de blåsa kvar gong de bryt upp frå lægret;
And at the second sounding and like noise of the trumpet, they who lie on the south side shall take up their tents. And after this manner shall the rest do, when the trumpets shall sound for a march.
7 men når du vil kalla folket i hop til ålmannamøte, skal de låta lint i lurarne, og ikkje blåsa alarm.
But when the people is to be gathered together, the sound of the trumpets shall be plain, and they shall not make a broken sound.
8 Arons-sønerne, prestarne, er det som skal blåsa i deim. Dette skal vera ei æveleg lov hjå dykk, frå ætt til ætt.
And the sons of Aaron the priest shall sound the trumpets: and this shall be an ordinance for ever in your generations.
9 Og når de fær ufred i landet, og fienden bryt på dykk, so skal de blåsa sterkt i lurarne; då skal Herren, dykkar Gud, koma dykk i hug, so de vert berga for uvenerne.
If you go forth to war out of your land against the enemies that fight against you, you shall sound aloud with the trumpets, and there shall be a remembrance of you before the Lord your God, that you may be delivered out of the hands of your enemies.
10 Og på glededagarne dykkar og høgtiderne og nymånedagarne skal de låta i lurarne til brennofferi og takkofferi dykkar, so det kann minna dykkar Gud um dykk. Eg, Herren, er dykkar Gud.»
If at any time you shall have a banquet, and on your festival days, and on the first days of your months, you shall sound the trumpets over the holocausts, and the sacrifices of peace offerings, that they may be to you for a remembrance of your God. I am the Lord your God.

And Moses said to Hobab the son of Raguel the Madianite, his kinsman: We are going towards the place which the Lord will give us: come with us, that we may do thee good: for the Lord hath promised good things to Israel.
30 «Nei, » svara Hobab, «eg vil fara heim til mitt eige land og folk.»
But he answered him: I will not go with thee, but I will return to my country, wherein I was born.
31 «Kjære væne, gakk ikkje frå oss!» sagde Moses. «Du veit best kvar me kann setja læger i øydemarki; du lyt vera auga vårt!
And he said: Do not leave us: for thou knowest in what places we should encamp in the wilderness, and thou shalt be our guide.
32 Gjeng du med oss, so skal me gjeva deg mykje godt, når me fær alt det gode som Herren vil gjeva oss.»
And if thou comest with us, we will give thee what is the best of the riches which the Lord shall deliver to us.
