Numbers 9:15-17

15Now on 1the day that the tabernacle was erected, 2the cloud covered the tabernacle, the 3tent of the testimony, and 4in the evening it was like the appearance of fire over the tabernacle until morning.

16That is how it was continuously; 5the cloud would cover it by day, and the appearance of fire by night.

176Whenever the cloud was lifted from over the tent, afterward the sons of Israel would set out; and in the place where the cloud settled down, there the sons of Israel would camp.
