4 Mosebok 10
1 Og Herren talte til Moses og sa:
And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Gjør dig to trompeter av sølv; i drevet arbeid skal du gjøre dem. Og du skal bruke dem når menigheten skal kalles sammen, og når leirene skal bryte op.
Make thee two trumpets of silver; of beaten work shalt thou make them: and thou shalt use them for the calling of the congregation, and for the journeying of the camps.
3 Når der støtes i dem begge, da skal hele menigheten samle sig hos dig ved inngangen til sammenkomstens telt.
And when they shall blow with them, all the congregation shall gather themselves unto thee at the door of the tent of meeting.
4 Støtes der bare i den ene, da skal høvdingene, overhodene for Israels tusener, samle sig hos dig.
And if they blow but with one, then the princes, the heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee.
5 Men når I blåser alarm, da skal de leire som ligger mot øst, bryte op.
And when ye blow an alarm, the camps that lie on the east side shall take their journey.
6 Og når I blåser alarm annen gang, da skal de leire som ligger mot syd, bryte op. Alarm skal der blåses når de skal bryte op.
And when ye blow an alarm the second time, the camps that lie on the south side shall take their journey: they shall blow an alarm for their journeys.
7 Men når menigheten skal kalles sammen, skal I støte i dem og ikke blåse alarm.
But when the assembly is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm.
8 Arons sønner, prestene, er det som skal blåse i trompetene. Dette skal være en evig lov for eder, fra slekt til slekt.
And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the trumpets; and they shall be to you for a statute for ever throughout your generations.
9 Og når I drar i krig i eders land mot fiender som overfaller eder, da skal I blåse alarm med trompetene; og Herren eders Gud skal komme eder i hu, så I skal bli frelst fra eders fiender.
And when ye go to war in your land against the adversary that oppresseth you, then ye shall sound an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before the LORD your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.
10 Og på eders gledesdager og eders høitider og eders nymånedager skal I støte i trompetene når I ofrer eders brennoffer og eders takkoffer, og de skal minne om eder for eders Guds åsyn; jeg er Herren eders Gud.
Also in the day of your gladness, and in your set feasts, and in the beginnings of your months, ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; and they shall be to you for a memorial before your God: I am the LORD your God.
11 Og det skjedde i det annet år i den annen måned, på den tyvende dag i måneden, da løftet skyen sig fra vidnesbyrdets tabernakel,

29 og Moses sa til midianitten Hobab, Re'uels sønn, Moses' svoger: Vi bryter nu op til det sted hvorom Herren har sagt: Jeg vil gi eder det. Kom med oss! Så vil vi gjøre vel imot dig; for Herren har lovt Israel alt hvad godt er.
And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses’ father in law, We are journeying unto the place of which the LORD said, I will give it you: come thou with us, and we will do thee good: for the LORD hath spoken good concerning Israel.
30 Men han svarte: Jeg vil ikke gå med, jeg vil dra hjem til mitt land og min slekt.
And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine own land, and to my kindred.
31 Da sa Moses: Å nei, forlat oss ikke! Du vet jo best hvor vi kan leire oss i ørkenen, og du skal være vårt øie;
And he said, Leave us not, I pray thee; forasmuch as thou knowest how we are to encamp in the wilderness, and thou shalt be to us instead of eyes.
32 går du med oss, da vil vi la dig få godt av det gode som Herren gjør mot oss.
And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, it shall be, that what good soever the LORD shall do unto us, the same will we do unto thee.
33 Så drog de da fra Herrens berg tre dagsreiser frem; og Herrens pakts ark drog foran dem de tre dagsreiser for å søke et hvilested for dem.
And they set forward from 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 a resting place for them.
34 Herrens sky var over dem om dagen når de brøt op fra leiren.

And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said, Rise up, O LORD, and let thine enemies be scattered; and let them that hate thee flee before thee.

And when it rested, he said, Return, O LORD, unto the ten thousands of the thousands of Israel.
