33 (A)Thus they set out from the mount of Yahweh three days’ journey, with (B)the ark of the covenant of Yahweh journeying in front of them for the [a]three days, to spy out (C)a resting place for them. 34 (D)Now the cloud of Yahweh was over them by day when they set out from the camp.

35 Then it happened when the ark set out that Moses said,

(E)Rise up, O Yahweh!
And let Your enemies be scattered,
And let those (F)who hate You flee [b]before You.”

36 And when it came to rest, he said,

(G)Return, O Yahweh,
To the myriad (H)thousands of Israel.”

  2. Numbers 10:35 Or from Your presence

33 So they traveled from the mountain of the Lord, a three-day trip, with the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord traveling in front of them—a three day trip to explore a place for them to rest. 34 Moreover, the cloud of the Lord protected them during the day when they left their camp. 35 Whenever the ark was ready to travel, Moses would say:

“Arise, Lord,

so that whoever hates you
    will flee from your presence.”

36 Whenever the ark was being readied to rest, he would say:

“Return, Lord,
    to the countless thousands of Israel.”
