民数记 10
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
制造银号
10 耶和华对摩西说： 2 “你要用银子作两枝号，要锤出来的，可以用来召集会众，也可以叫会众拔营起行。 3 吹号的时候，全体会众都要到你那里，聚集在会幕的门口。 4 如果单吹一枝，众领袖，就是以色列的族长，都要到你那里聚集。 5 你们吹大声的时候，那在东边的营，都要起行。 6 你们第二次吹大声的时候，那在南边的营，都要起行；他们要起行，必须吹大声。 7 但召集会众的时候，你们要吹号，却不要吹大声。 8 亚伦的子孙作祭司的要作吹号的；这要作你们世世代代永远的条例。 9 你们在本地与欺压你们的仇敌作战的时候，就要吹大声，使你们在耶和华你们的 神面前得蒙记念，也得拯救脱离你们的仇敌。 10 此外，在你们快乐的日子和指定的节期，以及月朔，你们献燔祭和平安祭的时候，也要吹号，这都要在你们的 神面前替你们作为记念；我是耶和华你们的 神。”
由西奈起程之次序
11 第二年二月二十日，云彩从法柜的帐幕收上去的时候， 12 以色列人就从西奈旷野按站起行；云彩在巴兰旷野停住了。 13 这是他们第一次照着耶和华藉摩西吩咐他们的起程。 14 犹大营的旗号，按着他们的队伍，首先起行；统领队伍的，是亚米拿达的儿子拿顺。 15 统领以萨迦支派队伍的，是苏押的儿子拿坦业。 16 统领西布伦支派队伍的，是希伦的儿子以利押。
17 帐幕拆下来以后，革顺的子孙和米拉利的子孙，就抬着帐幕起行。 18 流本营的旗号，按着他们的队伍起行；统领队伍的，是示丢珥的儿子以利蓿。 19 统领西缅支派的，是苏利沙代的儿子示路蔑。 20 统领迦得支派队伍的，是丢珥的儿子以利雅萨。
21 哥辖人抬着圣物起行；他们到达之前，人已经把帐幕竖立起来。 22 以法莲营的旗号，按着他们的队伍起行；统领队伍的，是亚米忽的儿子以利沙玛。 23 统领玛拿西支派队伍的，是比大蓿的儿子迦玛列。 24 统领便雅悯支派队伍的，是基多尼的儿子亚比但。
25 但营的旗号，作众营的后队，按着他们的队伍起行；统领队伍的，是亚米沙代的儿子亚希以谢。 26 统领亚设支派队伍的，是俄兰的儿子帕结。 27 统领拿弗他利支派队伍的，是以南的儿子亚希拉。 28 这是以色列人起行的时候，按着他们的队伍起行的次序。
29 摩西对自己的岳父米甸人流珥的儿子何巴说：“我们要起行到耶和华应许的地方去，他曾说：‘我要把那地赐给你们’，现在求你与我们同去，我们必善待你，因为耶和华对以色列已经应许福乐。” 30 何巴对摩西说：“我不去，我要归回我本地本族那里去。” 31 摩西说：“求你不要离开我们，因为你知道我们应怎样在旷野安营，你可以作我们的眼目。 32 如果你与我们同去，将来耶和华用甚么好处待我们，我们也必用甚么好处待你。”
33 以色列人从耶和华的山起行，行了三天的路程，耶和华的约柜在他们前面行了三天的路程，为他们寻找安息的地方。 34 他们拔营起行的时候，日间总有耶和华的云彩在他们上头。
35 约柜起行的时候，摩西就说：
“耶和华啊，求你起来，
愿你的仇敌四散；
愿恨你的人从你面前逃跑。”
36 约柜停住的时候，他就说：
“耶和华啊，求你归来，
回到以色列的千万人中。”
Numbers 10

The Silver Trumpets
10 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Make two trumpets of hammered silver to use for calling the people together and for breaking camp. 3 When long blasts are sounded on both trumpets, the whole community is to gather around you at the entrance to the Tent of my presence. 4 But when only one trumpet is sounded, then only the leaders of the clans are to gather around you. 5 When short blasts are sounded, the tribes camped on the east will move out. 6 When short blasts are sounded a second time, the tribes on the south will move out. So short blasts are to be sounded to break camp, 7 but in order to call the community together, long blasts are to be sounded. 8 The trumpets are to be blown by Aaron's sons, the priests.
“The following rule is to be observed for all time to come. 9 When you are at war in your land, defending yourselves against an enemy who has attacked you, sound the signal for battle on these trumpets. I, the Lord your God, will help you and save you from your enemies. 10 Also on joyful occasions—at your New Moon Festivals and your other religious festivals—you are to blow the trumpets when you present your burnt offerings and your fellowship offerings. Then I will help you. I am the Lord your God.”
The Israelites Break Camp
11 On the twentieth day of the second month in the second year after the people left Egypt, the cloud over the Tent of the Lord's presence lifted, 12 and the Israelites started on their journey out of the Sinai Desert. The cloud came to rest in the wilderness of Paran.
13 They began to march at the command of the Lord through Moses, 14 and each time they moved, they were in the same order. Those under the banner of the division led by the tribe of Judah started out first, company by company, with Nahshon son of Amminadab in command. 15 Nethanel son of Zuar was in command of the tribe of Issachar, 16 and Eliab son of Helon was in command of the tribe of Zebulun.
17 Then the Tent would be taken down, and the clans of Gershon and Merari, who carried it, would start out.
18 Next, those under the banner of the division led by the tribe of Reuben would start out, company by company, with Elizur son of Shedeur in command. 19 Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai was in command of the tribe of Simeon, 20 and Eliasaph son of Deuel was in command of the tribe of Gad.
21 Then the Levite clan of Kohath would start out, carrying the sacred objects. By the time they arrived at the next camp, the Tent had been set up again.
22 Next, those under the banner of the division led by the tribe of Ephraim would start out, company by company, with Elishama son of Ammihud in command. 23 Gamaliel son of Pedahzur was in command of the tribe of Manasseh, 24 and Abidan son of Gideoni was in command of the tribe of Benjamin.
25 Finally, those under the banner of the division led by the tribe of Dan, serving as the rear guard of all the divisions, would start out, company by company, with Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai in command. 26 Pagiel son of Ochran was in command of the tribe of Asher, 27 and Ahira son of Enan was in command of the tribe of Naphtali. 28 This, then, was the order of march, company by company, whenever the Israelites broke camp and set out.
29 Moses said to his brother-in-law Hobab son of Jethro the Midianite, “We are about to start out for the place which the Lord said he would give us. He has promised to make Israel prosperous, so come with us, and we will share our prosperity with you.”
30 Hobab answered, “No, I am going back to my native land.”
31 “Please don't leave us,” Moses said. “You know where we can camp in the wilderness, and you can be our guide. 32 If you come with us, we will share with you all the blessings that the Lord gives us.”
The People Set Out
33 When the people left Sinai, the holy mountain, they traveled three days. The Lord's Covenant Box always went ahead of them to find a place for them to camp. 34 As they moved on from each camp, the cloud of the Lord was over them by day.
35 (A)Whenever the Covenant Box started out, Moses would say, “Arise, Lord; scatter your enemies and put to flight those who hate you!” 36 And whenever it stopped, he would say, “Return, Lord, to the thousands of families of Israel.”[a]
