Verse
Numbers - ch 10 v 1 - 20
- And the Lord said to Moses,
- Make two silver horns of hammered work, to be used for getting the people together and to give the sign for the moving of the tents.
- When they are sounded, all the people are to come together to you at the door of the Tent of meeting.
- If only one of them is sounded, then the chiefs, the heads of the thousands of Israel, are to come to you.
- When a loud note is sounded, the tents placed on the east side are to go forward.
- At the sound of a second loud note, the tents on the south side are to go forward: the loud note will be the sign to go forward.
- But when all the people are to come together, the horn is to be sounded but not loudly.
- The horns are to be sounded by the sons of Aaron, the priests; this is to be a law for you for ever, from generation to generation.
- And if you go to war in your land against any who do you wrong, then let the loud note of the horn be sounded; and the Lord your God will keep you in mind and give you salvation from those who are against you.
- And on days of joy and on your regular feasts and on the first day of every month, let the horns be sounded over your burned offerings and your peace-offerings; and they will put the Lord in mind of you: I am the Lord your God.
- Now in the second year, on the twentieth day of the second month, the cloud was taken up from over the Tent of witness.
- And the children of Israel went on their journey out of the waste land of Sinai; and the cloud came to rest in the waste land of Paran.
- They went forward for the first time on their journey as the Lord had given orders by the hand of Moses.
- First the flag of the children of Judah went forward with their armies: and at the head of his army was Nahshon, the son of Amminadab.
- And at the head of the army of the children of Issachar was Nethanel, the son of Zuar.
- And at the head of the army of the children of Zebulun was Eliab, the son of Helon.
- Then the House was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari, who were responsible for moving the House, went forward.
- Then the flag of the children of Reuben went forward with their armies: and at the head of his army was Elizur, the son of Shedeur.
- And at the head of the army of the children of Simeon was Shelumiel, the son of Zurishaddai.
