Numbers 10
Tree of Life Version
Silver Trumpets for Assembly
10 Adonai spoke to Moses saying, 2 “Make two trumpets of hammered silver for yourself. They are for summoning the community and having the camps set out. 3 Whenever both are sounded, the whole community is to gather toward you at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting. 4 But if only one is sounded, the princes—the heads of the tribes of Israel—are to gather toward you. 5 When you sound the trumpet the first time, the camp of those camped on the east is to set out. 6 When you sound the trumpet blast the second time, the camp of those camped on the south is to set out. Short blasts will be the signal for their moving out. 7 To gather the whole national community, you are to sound the sustained blasts, but not the short blasts. 8 The sons of Aaron will blow the trumpets. This is to be an eternal ordinance for you as well as for your generations to come.
9 Whenever you go to war in your own land against the enemy who is hostile to you, you are to sound short blasts of alarm. Then you will be remembered before Adonai your God and be delivered from your enemies.
10 Also at your days of rejoicing, feasts and new moons, you are to blow on the trumpets over your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. They will then be a reminder for you before Adonai your God. I am Adonai your God!”
Journey From Sinai
11 On the twentieth day of the second month of the second year, the cloud lifted up from above the Tabernacle of the Testimony. 12 Then Bnei-Yisrael set out on their travels in the Sinai wilderness. The cloud came to rest in the wilderness of Paran. 13 So they set out the first time by the mouth of Adonai by Moses’s hand.
14 The standard of the camp of the sons of Judah set out first by their divisions. Over them was Nahshon son of Amminadab. 15 Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Issachar was Nethanel son of Zuar. 16 Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun was Eliab son of Helon.
17 Then the Tabernacle was disassembled, and the sons of Gershon and Merari, who were carrying it, set out. 18 The standard of the camp of Reuben then set out, by their divisions. Over his division was Elizur son of Shedeur. 19 Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai, was over the division of the tribe of the sons of Simeon. 20 Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Gad was Eliasaph son of Deuel.
21 Then the Kohathites set out, carrying the holy items. The Tabernacle was to be erected before their arrival.
22 The standard of the camp of the sons of Ephraim set out next, by their divisions. Over his division was Elishama son of Ammihud. 23 Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh was Gamaliel son of Pedahzur. 24 Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Benjamin was Abidan son of Gideoni.
25 The standard of the camp of the tribe of the sons of Dan, being the rear guard of all the camps, set out by their divisions. Over his division was Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai. 26 Pagiel son of Ochran, was over the division of the tribe of the sons of Asher. 27 Ahira son of Enan, was over the division of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali.
28 This is the order by which Bnei-Yisrael, by their divisions, set out.
29 Moses said to Hobab son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law, “We are setting out to the place about which Adonai said, ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us and we will do good to you, because Adonai has spoken goodness to Israel.”
30 But he said to him, “I will not go, because I would rather go to my own country and to my own people.”
31 But he said, “Do not leave us now, because you know where we should camp in the wilderness. You can be like eyes to us. 32 If you come with us, we will share with you whatever good Adonai gives to us.”
33 So they advanced from the mountain of Adonai, a trip of three days, the Ark of the covenant of Adonai going ahead of them for those three days to seek out a resting place for them. 34 The cloud of Adonai was over them by day when they advanced from the camp.
35 Whenever the Ark would set out, Moses would say:
“Arise, Adonai! May Your enemies be scattered!
May those who hate You flee from before You!”
36 Then whenever it came to rest, he would say:
“Return, Adonai, to the myriad thousands of Israel!”
Numbers 10
New King James Version
Two Silver Trumpets
10 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 2 “Make two silver trumpets for yourself; you shall make them of hammered work; you shall use them for (A)calling the congregation and for directing the movement of the camps. 3 When (B)they blow both of them, all the congregation shall gather before you at the door of the tabernacle of meeting. 4 But if they blow only one, then the leaders, the (C)heads of the divisions of Israel, shall gather to you. 5 When you sound the (D)advance, (E)the camps that lie on the east side shall then begin their journey. 6 When you sound the advance the second time, then the camps that lie (F)on the south side shall begin their journey; they shall sound the call for them to begin their journeys. 7 And when the assembly is to be gathered together, (G)you shall blow, but not (H)sound the advance. 8 (I)The sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets; and these shall be to you as an [a]ordinance forever throughout your generations.
9 (J)“When you go to war in your land against the enemy who (K)oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets, and you will be (L)remembered before the Lord your God, and you will be saved from your enemies. 10 Also (M)in the day of your gladness, in your appointed feasts, and at the beginning of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; and they shall be (N)a memorial for you before your God: I am the Lord your God.”
Departure from Sinai
11 Now it came to pass on the twentieth day of the second month, in the second year, that the cloud (O)was taken up from above the tabernacle of the Testimony. 12 And the children of Israel set out from the (P)Wilderness of Sinai on (Q)their journeys; then the cloud settled down in the (R)Wilderness of Paran. 13 So they started out for the first time (S)according to the command of the Lord by the hand of Moses.
14 The [b]standard of the camp of the children of Judah (T)set out first according to their armies; over their army was (U)Nahshon the son of Amminadab. 15 Over the army of the tribe of the children of Issachar was Nethanel the son of Zuar. 16 And over the army of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was Eliab the son of Helon.
17 Then (V)the tabernacle was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari set out, (W)carrying the tabernacle.
18 And (X)the standard of the camp of Reuben set out according to their armies; over their army was Elizur the son of Shedeur. 19 Over the army of the tribe of the children of Simeon was Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai. 20 And over the army of the tribe of the children of Gad was Eliasaph the son of Deuel.
21 Then the Kohathites set out, carrying the (Y)holy things. (The tabernacle would be [c]prepared for their arrival.)
22 And (Z)the standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim set out according to their armies; over their army was Elishama the son of Ammihud. 23 Over the army of the tribe of the children of Manasseh was Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur. 24 And over the army of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was Abidan the son of Gideoni.
25 Then (AA)the standard of the camp of the children of Dan (the rear guard of all the camps) set out according to their armies; over their army was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai. 26 Over the army of the tribe of the children of Asher was Pagiel the son of Ocran. 27 And over the army of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira the son of Enan.
28 (AB)Thus was the order of march of the children of Israel, according to their armies, when they began their journey.
29 Now Moses said to (AC)Hobab the son of (AD)Reuel[d] the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law, “We are setting out for the place of which the Lord said, (AE)‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us, and (AF)we will treat you well; for (AG)the Lord has promised good things to Israel.”
30 And he said to him, “I will not go, but I will depart to my own land and to my relatives.”
31 So Moses said, “Please do not leave, inasmuch as you know how we are to camp in the wilderness, and you can [e]be our (AH)eyes. 32 And it shall be, if you go with us—indeed it shall be—that (AI)whatever good the Lord will do to us, the same we will do to you.”
33 So they departed from (AJ)the mountain of the Lord on a journey of three days; and the ark of the covenant of the Lord (AK)went before them for the three days’ journey, to search out a resting place for them. 34 And (AL)the cloud of the Lord was above them by day when they went out from the camp.
35 So it was, whenever the ark set out, that Moses said:
(AM)“Rise up, O Lord!
Let Your enemies be scattered,
And let those who hate You flee before You.”
36 And when it rested, he said:
“Return, O Lord,
To the many thousands of Israel.”

The Silver Trumpets
10 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Make two silver trumpets. Of hammered work you shall make them, and you shall use them for (A)summoning the congregation and for breaking camp. 3 And when (B)both are blown, all the congregation shall gather themselves to you at the entrance of the tent of meeting. 4 But if they blow only one, then (C)the chiefs, the heads of the tribes of Israel, shall gather themselves to you. 5 When you blow an alarm, (D)the camps that are on the east side shall set out. 6 And when you blow an alarm the second time, (E)the camps that are on the south side shall set out. An alarm is to be blown whenever they are to set out. 7 But when the assembly is to be gathered together, (F)you shall blow a long blast, but you shall not (G)sound an alarm. 8 (H)And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets. The trumpets shall be to you for a perpetual statute throughout your generations. 9 And (I)when you go to war in your land against the adversary who (J)oppresses you, then you shall (K)sound an alarm with the trumpets, that you may be (L)remembered before the Lord your God, and you shall be saved from your enemies. 10 (M)On the day of your gladness also, and at your appointed feasts and (N)at the beginnings of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings. They shall be (O)a reminder of you before your God: I am the Lord your God.”
Israel Leaves Sinai
11 In the second year, in the second month, on the twentieth day of the month, (P)the cloud lifted from over the tabernacle of the testimony, 12 and the people of Israel (Q)set out by stages from the (R)wilderness of Sinai. And the cloud settled down in the (S)wilderness of Paran. 13 They set out for the first time (T)at the command of the Lord by Moses. 14 The standard of the camp of the people of Judah set out (U)first by their companies, and over their company was (V)Nahshon the son of Amminadab. 15 And over the company of the tribe of the people of Issachar was Nethanel the son of Zuar. 16 And over the company of the tribe of the people of Zebulun was Eliab the son of Helon.
17 And when (W)the tabernacle was taken down, the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari, (X)who carried the tabernacle, set out. 18 And (Y)the standard of the camp of Reuben set out by their companies, and over their company was (Z)Elizur the son of Shedeur. 19 And over the company of the tribe of the people of Simeon was (AA)Shelumiel the son of Zurishaddai. 20 And over the company of the tribe of the people of Gad was (AB)Eliasaph the son of (AC)Deuel.
21 Then the Kohathites set out, (AD)carrying the holy things, and (AE)the tabernacle was set up before their arrival. 22 And (AF)the standard of the camp of the people of Ephraim set out by their companies, and over their company was (AG)Elishama the son of Ammihud. 23 And over the company of the tribe of the people of Manasseh was (AH)Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur. 24 And over the company of the tribe of the people of Benjamin was (AI)Abidan the son of Gideoni.
25 Then (AJ)the standard of the camp of the people of Dan, acting as the (AK)rear guard of all the camps, set out by their companies, and over their company was (AL)Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai. 26 And over the company of the tribe of the people of Asher was (AM)Pagiel the son of Ochran. 27 And over the company of the tribe of the people of Naphtali was (AN)Ahira the son of Enan. 28 (AO)This was the order of march of the people of Israel by their companies, when they set out.
29 And Moses said to Hobab the son of (AP)Reuel the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law, “We are setting out for the place of which the Lord said, (AQ)‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us, and we will do good to you, for (AR)the Lord has promised good to Israel.” 30 But he said to him, “I will not go. I will depart to my own land and to my kindred.” 31 And he said, “Please do not leave us, for you know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you will serve (AS)as eyes for us. 32 And if you do go with us, (AT)whatever good the Lord will do to us, the same will we do to you.”
33 So they set out from (AU)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 (AV)a resting place for them. 34 (AW)And the cloud of the Lord was over them by day, whenever they set out from the camp.
35 And whenever the ark set out, Moses said, (AX)“Arise, O Lord, and let your enemies be scattered, and let those who hate you flee before you.” 36 And when it rested, he said, “Return, O Lord, to the ten thousand thousands of Israel.”

Nova Versão Transformadora
As trombetas de prata
10 O Senhor também disse a Moisés: 2 “Faça duas trombetas de prata batida. Com elas você chamará a comunidade para se reunir e dará o sinal para levantar acampamento. 3 Quando as duas trombetas soarem, todos se reunirão diante de você à entrada da tenda do encontro. 4 Se apenas uma trombeta soar, somente os líderes, os chefes dos clãs de Israel, se apresentarão a você.
5 “Quando o sinal para seguir viagem soar, as tribos acampadas do lado leste levantarão acampamento e avançarão. 6 Quando o sinal soar pela segunda vez, as tribos acampadas do lado sul virão em seguida. Mande soar dois toques curtos para indicar que devem partir. 7 Mas, quando convocar o povo para uma reunião sagrada, mande soar um toque diferente. 8 Apenas os sacerdotes, os descendentes de Arão, tocarão as trombetas. Essa é uma lei permanente para vocês, a ser cumprida de geração em geração.
9 “Quando chegarem à sua própria terra e guerrearem contra os inimigos que os atacarem, usem as trombetas para soar o alarme. Então o Senhor, seu Deus, se lembrará de vocês e os livrará de seus inimigos. 10 Façam soar as trombetas também em ocasiões alegres, nas festas anuais e no começo de cada mês, e toquem as trombetas ao apresentarem holocaustos e ofertas de paz. As trombetas lhes servirão de recordação diante de seu Deus. Eu sou o Senhor, seu Deus”.
Os israelitas deixam o Sinai
11 No segundo ano desde a saída de Israel do Egito, no vigésimo dia do segundo mês,[a] a nuvem se elevou acima do tabernáculo da aliança.[b] 12 Então os israelitas saíram do deserto do Sinai e viajaram de um lugar para outro até a nuvem pousar no deserto de Parã.
13 Da primeira vez que o povo partiu, seguindo as instruções do Senhor a Moisés, 14 o exército da tribo de Judá foi à frente. Marchava atrás de sua bandeira e seu comandante era Naassom, filho de Aminadabe. 15 Em seguida, vieram o exército da tribo de Issacar, comandado por Natanael, filho de Zuar, 16 e o exército da tribo de Zebulom, comandado por Eliabe, filho de Helom.
17 O tabernáculo foi desmontado, e os levitas das divisões gersonita e merarita vieram na sequência, carregando o tabernáculo. 18 O exército de Rúben veio depois, marchando atrás de sua bandeira. Seu comandante era Elizur, filho de Sedeur. 19 Em seguida, vieram o exército da tribo de Simeão, comandado por Selumiel, filho de Zurisadai, 20 e o exército da tribo de Gade, comandado por Eliasafe, filho de Deuel.
21 Então vieram os levitas da divisão coatita carregando os objetos sagrados. Antes que o povo chegasse ao próximo acampamento, o tabernáculo deveria estar armado em seu novo local. 22 O exército de Efraim veio depois, marchando atrás de sua bandeira, comandado por Elisama, filho de Amiúde. 23 Em seguida, vieram o exército da tribo de Manassés, comandado por Gamaliel, filho de Pedazur, 24 e o exército da tribo de Benjamim, comandado por Abidã, filho de Gideoni.
25 O exército de Dã veio por último, marchando atrás de sua bandeira e formando a retaguarda de todos os acampamentos das tribos. Seu comandante era Aieser, filho de Amisadai. 26 Em seguida, vieram o exército da tribo de Aser, comandado por Pagiel, filho de Ocrã, 27 e o exército da tribo de Naftali, comandado por Aira, filho de Enã.
28 Era nessa sequência que os israelitas marchavam, exército após exército.
29 Moisés disse a seu cunhado Hobabe, filho do midianita Reuel: “Estamos a caminho do lugar que o Senhor nos prometeu, pois ele disse: ‘Eu o darei a vocês’. Venha conosco e o trataremos bem, pois o Senhor prometeu boas coisas a Israel!”.
30 “Não irei”, respondeu Hobabe. “Preciso voltar para minha própria terra e para minha família.”
31 “Por favor, não nos deixe”, pediu Moisés. “Você conhece os lugares do deserto onde poderemos acampar. Venha e seja nosso guia. 32 Se nos acompanhar, compartilharemos com você todas as boas coisas que o Senhor nos der.”
33 Depois de partirem do monte do Senhor, marcharam por três dias. A arca da aliança do Senhor ia à frente deles para lhes mostrar onde parar e descansar. 34 A cada dia, enquanto seguiam viagem, a nuvem do Senhor permanecia sobre eles. 35 Sempre que a arca partia, Moisés exclamava: “Levanta-te, ó Senhor! Que teus inimigos se dispersem e teus adversários fujam de diante de ti!”. 36 E, quando a arca parava, ele dizia: “Volta, ó Senhor, aos muitos milhares de Israel!”.
