1 Disse mais o Senhor a Moisés: 2 Faze duas trombetas de prata; de obra batida as farás; servir-te-ão para convocares a congregação e para a partida dos arraiais. 3 Quando tocarem, toda a congregação se ajuntará a ti à porta da tenda da congregação. 4 Mas, quando tocar uma só, a ti se ajuntarão os príncipes, os cabeças dos milhares de Israel. 5 Quando as tocardes a rebate, partirão os arraiais que se acham acampados do lado oriental. 6 Mas, quando a segunda vez as tocardes a rebate, então, partirão os arraiais que se acham acampados do lado sul; a rebate, as tocarão para as suas partidas. 7 Mas, se se houver de ajuntar a congregação, tocá-las-eis, porém não a rebate. 8 Os filhos de Arão, sacerdotes, tocarão as trombetas; e a vós outros será isto por estatuto perpétuo nas vossas gerações. 9 Quando, na vossa terra, sairdes a pelejar contra os opressores que vos apertam, também tocareis as trombetas a rebate, e perante o Senhor, vosso Deus, haverá lembrança de vós, e sereis salvos de vossos inimigos. 10 Da mesma sorte, no dia da vossa alegria, e nas vossas solenidades, e nos princípios dos vossos meses, também tocareis as vossas trombetas sobre os vossos holocaustos e sobre os vossos sacrifícios pacíficos, e vos serão por lembrança perante vosso Deus. Eu sou o Senhor, vosso Deus.
11 Aconteceu, no ano segundo, no segundo mês, aos vinte do mês, que a nuvem se ergueu de sobre o tabernáculo da congregação. 12 Os filhos de Israel puseram-se em marcha do deserto do Sinai, jornada após jornada; e a nuvem repousou no deserto de Parã. 13 Assim, pela primeira vez, se puseram em marcha, segundo o mandado do Senhor, por Moisés. 14 Primeiramente, partiu o estandarte do arraial dos filhos de Judá, segundo as suas turmas; e, sobre o seu exército, estava Naassom, filho de Aminadabe; 15 sobre o exército da tribo dos filhos de Issacar, Natanael, filho de Zuar; 16 e, sobre o exército da tribo dos filhos de Zebulom, Eliabe, filho de Helom.
17 Então, desarmaram o tabernáculo, e os filhos de Gérson e os filhos de Merari partiram, levando o tabernáculo. 18 Depois, partiu o estandarte do arraial de Rúben, segundo as suas turmas; e, sobre o seu exército, estava Elizur, filho de Sedeur; 19 sobre o exército da tribo dos filhos de Simeão, Selumiel, filho de Zurisadai; 20 e, sobre o exército da tribo dos filhos de Gade, Eliasafe, filho de Deuel. 21 Então, partiram os coatitas, levando as coisas santas; e erigia-se o tabernáculo até que estes chegassem.
22 Depois, partiu o estandarte do arraial dos filhos de Efraim, segundo as suas turmas; e, sobre o seu exército, estava Elisama, filho de Amiúde; 23 sobre o exército da tribo dos filhos de Manassés, Gamaliel, filho de Pedazur; 24 e, sobre o exército da tribo dos filhos de Benjamim, Abidã, filho de Gideoni.
25 Então, partiu o estandarte do arraial dos filhos de Dã, formando a retaguarda de todos os arraiais, segundo as suas turmas; e, sobre o seu exército, estava Aiezer, filho de Amisadai; 26 sobre o exército da tribo dos filhos de Aser, Pagiel, filho de Ocrã; 27 e, sobre o exército da tribo dos filhos de Naftali, Aira, filho de Enã. 28 Nesta ordem, puseram-se em marcha os filhos de Israel, segundo os seus exércitos.
29 Disse Moisés a Hobabe, filho de Reuel, o midianita, sogro de Moisés: Estamos de viagem para o lugar de que o Senhor disse: Dar-vo-lo-ei; vem conosco, e te faremos bem, porque o Senhor prometeu boas coisas a Israel. 30 Porém ele respondeu: Não irei; antes, irei à minha terra e à minha parentela. 31 Tornou-lhe Moisés: Ora, não nos deixes, porque tu sabes que devemos acampar-nos no deserto; e nos servirás de guia. 32 Se vieres conosco, far-te-emos o mesmo bem que o Senhor a nós nos fizer.
33 Partiram, pois, do monte do Senhor caminho de três dias; a arca da Aliança do Senhor ia adiante deles caminho de três dias, para lhes deparar lugar de descanso. 34 A nuvem do Senhor pairava sobre eles de dia, quando partiam do arraial. 35 Partindo a arca, Moisés dizia: Levanta-te, Senhor, e dissipados sejam os teus inimigos, e fujam diante de ti os que te odeiam. 36 E, quando pousava, dizia: Volta, ó Senhor, para os milhares de milhares de Israel.
1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying:
2 'Make thee two trumpets of silver; of beaten work shalt thou make them; and they shall be unto thee for the calling of the congregation, and for causing the camps to set forward.
3 And when they shall blow with them, all the congregation shall gather themselves unto thee at the door of the tent of meeting.
4 And if they blow but with one, then the princes, the heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee.
5 And when ye blow an alarm, the camps that lie on the east side shall take their journey.
6 And when ye blow an alarm the second time, the camps that lie on the south side shall set forward; they shall blow an alarm for their journeys.
7 But when the assembly is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm.
8 And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the trumpets; and they shall be to you for a statute for ever throughout your generations.
9 And when ye go to war in your land against the adversary that oppresseth you, then ye shall sound an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before the LORD your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.
10 Also in the day of your gladness, and in your appointed seasons, and in your new moons, ye shall 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.'
11 And it came to pass in the second year, in the second month, on the twentieth day of the month, that the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle of the testimony.
12 And the children of Israel set forward by their stages out of the wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud abode in the wilderness of Paran.--
13 And they took their first journey, according to the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses.
14 And in the first place the standard of the camp of the children of Judah set forward according to their hosts; and over his host was Nahshon the son of Amminadab.
15 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Issachar was Nethanel the son of Zuar.
16 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was Eliab the son of Helon.
17 And the tabernacle was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari, who bore the tabernacle, set forward.
18 And the standard of the camp of Reuben set forward according to their hosts; and over his host was Elizur the son of Shedeur.
19 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Simeon was Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.
20 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Gad was Eliasaph the son of Deuel.
21 And the Kohathites the bearers of the sanctuary set forward, that the tabernacle might be set up against their coming.
22 And the standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim set forward according to their hosts; and over his host was Elishama the son of Ammihud.
23 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh was Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur.
24 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was Abidan the son of Gideoni.
25 And the standard of the camp of the children of Dan, which was the rearward of all the camps, set forward according to their hosts; and over his host was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.
26 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher was Pagiel the son of Ochran.
27 And over the host of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira the son of Enan.
28 Thus were the journeyings of the children of Israel according to their hosts.--And they set forward.
29 And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law: 'We are journeying unto the place of which the LORD said: I will give it you; come thou with us, and we will do thee good; for the LORD hath spoken good concerning Israel.'
30 And he said unto him: 'I will not go; but I will depart to mine own land, and to my kindred.'
31 And he said: 'Leave us not, I pray thee; forasmuch as thou knowest how we are to encamp in the wilderness, and thou shalt be to us instead of eyes.
32 And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be, that what good soever the LORD shall do unto us, the same will we do unto thee.'
33 And they set forward from the mount of the LORD three days' journey; and the ark of the covenant of the LORD went before them three days' journey, to seek out a resting-place for them.
34 And the cloud of the LORD was over them by day, when they set forward from the camp.
35 And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said: 'Rise up, O LORD, and let Thine enemies be scattered; and let them that hate Thee flee before Thee.'
36 And when it rested, he said: 'Return, O LORD, unto the ten thousands of the families of Israel.'
