11 ¶ And in the second year, in the second month, and in the twentieth day of the month, the cloud was taken up from the Tabernacle of the Testimony.
12 And the children of Israel departed on their [a]journeys out of the desert of Sinai, and the cloud rested in the wilderness of Paran.
13 So they [b]first took their journey at the commandment of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
14 ¶ (A)In the first place went the standard of the host of the children of Judah according to their armies: and (B)Nahshon the son of Amminadab was over his band.
15 And over the band of the tribe of the children of Issachar was Nethanel the son of Zuar.
16 And over the band of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was Eliab the son of Helon.
17 When the Tabernacle was taken down, then the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari went forward bearing [c]the Tabernacle.
18 ¶ After, departed the standard of the host of Reuben, according to their armies, and over his band was Elizur the son of Shedeur.
19 And over the band of the tribe of the children of Simeon was Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai.
20 And over the band of the tribe of the children of Gad was Eliasaph the son of Deuel.
21 The Kohathites also went forward and [d]bare the (C)Sanctuary, and the [e]former did set up the Tabernacle against they came.
22 ¶ Then the standard of the host of the children of Ephraim went forward according to their armies, and over his band was Elishama the son of Ammihud.
23 And over the band of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh was Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur.
24 And over the band of the tribe of the sons of Benjamin was Abidan the son of Gideoni.
25 ¶ Last, the standard of the host of the children of Dan marched, [f]gathering all the hosts according to their armies: and over his band was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.
26 And over the band of the tribe of the children of Asher was Pagiel the son of Ocran.
27 And over the band of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira the son of Enan.
28 [g]These were the removings of the children of Israel according to their armies, when they marched.
