6When the trumpets are blown loudly the second time, the tribes that are to the south should start to travel. The loud blasts on the trumpet will signal that they should start to travel.
7When you want only to gather the people together, blow the trumpets, but do not blow them as loudly.
8The priests who are descended from Aaron are the ones who should blow the trumpets. That is a regulation that will never be changed.
9When you fight against enemies who attack you in your own land, tell the priests to blow the trumpets loudly. I, Yahweh, your God, will hear that, and I will rescue you from your enemies.
10Also tell the priests to blow the trumpets when the people are happy, and at the festivals each year, and at the times when they celebrate the new moon each month. Tell them to blow the trumpets when the people bring offerings that will be completely burned, and when they bring offerings to maintain fellowship with me. If they do that, it will help you to remember that I, Yahweh your God, will help you.”
11On the twentieth day of May in the second year after the/we Israelis left Egypt, the cloud rose up from above the Sacred Tent.
12So we/the Israelis traveled from the Sinai Desert, and we/they continued traveling north until the cloud stopped in the Paran Desert.
13That was the first time we/they moved, obeying the instructions that Yahweh had given to Moses/me to tell them.
14The group that went first, carrying their flag/banner, was the group from the tribe of Judah. Nahshon, the son of Amminadab, was their leader.
15The group from the tribe of Issachar followed them. Nethanel, the son of Zuar, was their leader.
16The group from the tribe of Zebulun went next. Eliab, the son of Helon, was their leader.
17Then they dismantled the Sacred Tent, and the descendants of Gershon and Merari carried it, and they went next.
18The group from the tribe of Reuben went next, carrying their flag. Elizur, the son of Shedeur, was their leader.
