1Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
1Then the LORD said to Moses,
2Fac tibi duas tubas argenteas ductiles, quibus convocare possis multitudinem quando movenda sunt castra.
2“Make two trumpets of hammered silver to be used for calling the congregation and for having the camps set out.
3Cumque increpueris tubis, congregabitur ad te omnis turba ad ostium tabernaculi fœderis.
3When both are sounded, the whole congregation is to assemble before you at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
4Si semel clangueris, venient ad te principes, et capita multitudinis Israël.
4But if only one is sounded, then the leaders, the heads of the clans of Israel, are to gather before you.
5Si autem prolixior atque concisus clangor increpuerit, movebunt castra primi qui sunt ad orientalem plagam.
5When you sound short blasts, the camps that lie on the east side are to set out.
6In secundo autem sonitu et pari ululatu tubæ, levabunt tentoria qui habitant ad meridiem; et juxta hunc modum reliqui facient, ululantibus tubis in profectionem.
6When you sound the short blasts a second time, the camps that lie on the south side are to set out. The blasts are to signal them to set out.
7Quando autem congregandus est populus, simplex tubarum clangor erit, et non concise ululabunt.
7To convene the assembly, you are to sound long blasts, not short ones.
8Filii autem Aaron sacerdotes clangent tubis: eritque hoc legitimum sempiternum in generationibus vestris.
8The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to sound the trumpets. This shall be a permanent statute for you and the generations to come.
9Si exieritis ad bellum de terra vestra contra hostes qui dimicant adversum vos, clangetis ululantibus tubis, et erit recordatio vestri coram Domino Deo vestro, ut eruamini de manibus inimicorum vestrorum.
9When you enter into battle in your land against an adversary who attacks you, sound short blasts on the trumpets, and you will be remembered before the LORD your God and saved from your enemies.
10Siquando habebitis epulum, et dies festos, et calendas, canetis tubis super holocaustis, et pacificis victimis, ut sint vobis in recordationem Dei vestri. Ego Dominus Deus vester.
10And on your joyous occasions, your appointed feasts, and the beginning of each month, you are to blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and fellowship offerings to serve as a reminder for you before your God. I am the LORD your God.”
11Anno secundo, mense secundo, vigesima die mensis, elevata est nubes de tabernaculo fœderis:
11On the twentieth day of the second month of the second year, the cloud was lifted from above the tabernacle of the Testimony,
12profectique sunt filii Israël per turmas suas de deserto Sinai, et recubuit nubes in solitudine Pharan.
12and the Israelites set out from the Wilderness of Sinai, traveling from place to place until the cloud settled in the Wilderness of Paran.
13Moveruntque castra primi juxta imperium Domini in manu Moysi.
13They set out this first time according to the LORD’s command through Moses.
14Filii Juda per turmas suas: quorum princeps erat Nahasson filius Aminadab.

28Hæc sunt castra, et profectiones filiorum Israël per turmas suas quando egrediebantur.

29Dixitque Moyses Hobab filio Raguel Madianitæ, cognato suo: Proficiscimur ad locum quem Dominus daturus est nobis: veni nobiscum, ut benefaciamus tibi, quia Dominus bona promisit Israëli.
29Then Moses said to Hobab, the son of Moses’ father-in-law Reuel the Midianite, “We are setting out for the place of 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 to Israel.”
30Cui ille respondit: Non vadam tecum, sed revertar in terram meam, in qua natus sum.
30“I will not go,” Hobab replied. “Instead, I am going back to my own land and my own people.”
31Et ille: Noli, inquit, nos relinquere: tu enim nosti in quibus locis per desertum castra ponere debeamus, et eris ductor noster.
31“Please do not leave us,” Moses said, “since you know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you can serve as our eyes.
32Cumque nobiscum veneris, quidquid optimum fuerit ex opibus, quas nobis traditurus est Dominus, dabimus tibi.
32If you come with us, we will share with you whatever good things the LORD gives us.”
33Profecti sunt ergo de monte Domini viam trium dierum, arcaque fœderis Domini præcedebat eos, per dies tres providens castrorum locum.
33So they set out on a three-day journey from the mountain of the LORD, with the ark of the covenant of the LORD traveling ahead of them for those three days to seek a resting place for them.
34Nubes quoque Domini super eos erat per diem cum incederent.
34And the cloud of the LORD was over them by day when they set out from the camp.
35Cumque elevaretur arca, dicebat Moyses: Surge, Domine, et dissipentur inimici tui, et fugiant qui oderunt te, a facie tua.
35Whenever the ark set out, Moses would say, “Rise up, O LORD! May Your enemies be scattered; may those who hate You flee before You.”
36Cum autem deponeretur, aiebat: Revertere, Domine, ad multitudinem exercitus Israël.
36And when it came to rest, he would say: “Return, O LORD, to the countless thousands of Israel.”
