4 Mosebok 10
1 Og Herren tala atter til Moses, og sagde:
And the Lord spoke unto 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 unto thyself two trumpets of silver, beaten out of one piece shalt thou make them; and they shall serve thee for the calling of the congregation, and for the setting forward of the camps.
3 Blæs de i båe, so skal heile lyden samla seg hjå deg framanfor møtetjelddøri;
And when they shall blow with both, all the congregation shall assemble themselves unto thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
4 blæs de berre i ein, so skal styresmennerne, hovdingarne yver Israels-ætterne, samla seg hjå deg.
And if they blow with but one, then shall assemble themselves unto thee the princes, the heads of the thousands of Israel.
5 Blæs de alarm, so skal dei flokkarne fara i veg som hev lægret sitt i aust;
And when ye blow an alarm, then shall set forward the camps that encamp on the east side.
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 when ye blow an alarm the second time, then shall set forward the camps that encamp on the south side: an alarm shall they blow for their setting forward.
7 men når du vil kalla folket i hop til ålmannamøte, skal de låta lint i lurarne, og ikkje blåsa alarm.
But at the assembling of the assembly, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm.
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 priests, shall blow with the trumpets; and they shall be to you for an ordinance for ever throughout 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.
And if ye go to war in your land against the oppressor that oppresseth you, then shall ye blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before the Lord your God, and ye shall be saved from 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.»
And on the day of your gladness, and on your appointed festivals, and on the beginnings of your months, shall ye blow with 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.

29 sagde Moses til Hobab, son åt Re’uel frå Midjan, verfar hans Moses: «No tek me på vegen til det landet som Herren hev sagt han vil gjeva oss. Kom og ver med oss, so skal me gjera vel mot deg; for Herren hev lova Israel mykje godt.»
And Moses said unto Chobab, the son of Reuel the Midianite, the father-in-law of Moses, We are journeying unto the place of which the Lord hath said, This will I give unto you: come thou with us, and we will do thee good; for the Lord hath spoken [to bring] good upon Israel.
30 «Nei, » svara Hobab, «eg vil fara heim til mitt eige land og folk.»
And he said unto him, I will not go; but to my own land, and to my birthplace will I go.
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, I pray thee, leave us; since thou didst find out the places where we were to encamp in the wilderness, and thou hast been to us instead of eyes.
32 Gjeng du med oss, so skal me gjeva deg mykje godt, når me fær alt det gode som Herren vil gjeva oss.»
And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be, that the same goodness which the Lord may do unto us, will we do unto thee.
33 So for dei då frå Gudsfjellet tri dagsleider fram, og Herrens sambandskista for fyre deim alle tri dagarne, og leita etter ein kvilestad for deim.
And they set forward from the mount of the Lord a three days' journey; and the ark of the covenant of the Lord went before them in the three days' journey, to search out for them a resting-place.
34 Herrens sky stod yver deim um dagen, når dei for ifrå lægret.
And the cloud of the Lord was over them by day, when they set forward from the camp.

And when it rested, he said, Return, O Lord, among thy myriads of the thousands of Israel.
