1The LORD also told Moses, 1The LORD spoke to Moses:
2"Make two trumpets, crafting them from beaten silver, for use in calling the congregation together and for notifying the camps to set out for travel. 2"Make two trumpets of silver; you are to make them from a single hammered piece. You will use them for assembling the community and for directing the traveling of the camps.
3Sound them when the whole assembly is to gather together at the entrance to the appointed place of meeting. 3When they blow them both, all the community must come to you to the entrance of the tent of meeting.
4When one trumpet is blown, the elders and the heads of the thousands of the Israelis are to gather to you. 4"But if they blow with one trumpet, then the leaders, the heads of the thousands of Israel, must come to you.
5When you sound an alarm, the ones encamped on the east side are to begin to travel. 5When you blow an alarm, then the camps that are located on the east side must begin to travel.
6When you sound the alarm the second time, those encamped on the south are to begin to travel. Alarms are to be sounded for their travels. 6And when you blow an alarm the second time, then the camps that are located on the south side must begin to travel. An alarm must be sounded for their journeys.
7But when you blow the trumpet to assemble the whole congregation, don't use the same sound as you do for sounding an alarm.7But when you assemble the community, you must blow, but you must not sound an alarm.
8The descendants of Aaron the priest are to blow the trumpets. Have them do this for you permanently throughout your generations to come."8The sons of Aaron, the priests, must blow the trumpets; and they will be to you for an eternal ordinance throughout your generations.
9"When you wage war in your land against an enemy who is hostile to you, you are to sound an alarm with the trumpets. Then you will be remembered before the face of the LORD your God and you will be delivered from your enemies. 9If you go to war in your land against an adversary who opposes you, then you must sound an alarm with the trumpets, and you will be remembered before the LORD your God, and you will be saved from your enemies.
10At the beginning of the month, during your time of rejoicing at the appointed place, sound the trumpet over your burnt offering, then sacrifice your peace offering, since they are to be your memorial before the LORD your God. I am the LORD your God."10"Also in the time when you rejoice, such as on your appointed festivals or at the beginnings of your months, you must blow with your trumpets over your burnt offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings, so that they may become a memorial for you before your God: I am the LORD your God."

So come with us and we'll be good to you, because the LORD has spoken good things about Israel."29Moses said to Hobab son of Reuel, the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law, "We are journeying to the place about which the LORD said, 'I will give it to you.' Come with us and we will treat you well, for the LORD has promised good things for Israel."
30But he said, "I won't go with you because I'm returning to my land and to my own family."30But Hobab said to him, "I will not go, but I will go instead to my own land and to my kindred."
31Then Moses responded, "Please don't leave us now, since you know where we can camp in the wilderness. You could be our guide.31Moses said, "Do not leave us, because you know places for us to camp in the wilderness, and you could be our guide.
32And when you come with us, the good things that the LORD will grant us, we'll give you as well." 32And if you come with us, it is certain that whatever good things the LORD will favor us with, we will share with you as well."

34Moreover, the cloud of the LORD protected them during the day when they left their camp. 34And the cloud of the LORD was over them by day, when they traveled from the camp.
35Whenever the ark was ready to travel, Moses would say: "Arise, LORD, to scatter your enemies, so that whoever hates you will flee from your presence."35And when the ark traveled, Moses would say, "Rise up, O LORD! May your enemies be scattered, and may those who hate you flee before you!"
36Whenever the ark was being readied to rest, he would say: "Return, LORD, to the countless thousands of Israel."36And when it came to rest he would say, "Return, O LORD, to the many thousands of Israel!"
