Numbers 10:12-33

12Then Bnei-Yisrael set out on their travels in the Sinai wilderness. The cloud came to rest in the wilderness of Paran.

13So they set out the first time by the mouth of Adonai by Moses’s hand.

14The standard of the camp of the sons of Judah set out first by their divisions. Over them was Nahshon son of Amminadab.

15Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Issachar was Nethanel son of Zuar.

16Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun was Eliab son of Helon.

17Then the Tabernacle was disassembled, and the sons of Gershon and Merari, who were carrying it, set out.

18The standard of the camp of Reuben then set out, by their divisions. Over his division was Elizur son of Shedeur.

19Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai, was over the division of the tribe of the sons of Simeon.

20Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Gad was Eliasaph son of Deuel.

21Then the Kohathites set out, carrying the holy items. The Tabernacle was to be erected before their arrival.

22The standard of the camp of the sons of Ephraim set out next, by their divisions. Over his division was Elishama son of Ammihud.

23Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Manasseh was Gamaliel son of Pedahzur.

24Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Benjamin was Abidan son of Gideoni.

25The standard of the camp of the tribe of the sons of Dan, being the rear guard of all the camps, set out by their divisions. Over his division was Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai.

26Pagiel son of Ochran, was over the division of the tribe of the sons of Asher.

27Ahira son of Enan, was over the division of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali.

28This is the order by which Bnei-Yisrael, by their divisions, set out.

29Moses said to Hobab son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law, “We are setting out to the place about which Adonai said, ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us and we will do good to you, because Adonai has spoken goodness to Israel.”

30But he said to him, “I will not go, because I would rather go to my own country and to my own people.”

31But he said, “Do not leave us now, because you know where we should camp in the wilderness. You can be like eyes to us.

32If you come with us, we will share with you whatever good Adonai gives to us.”

33So they advanced from the mountain of Adonai, a trip of three days, the Ark of the covenant of Adonai going ahead of them for those three days to seek out a resting place for them.
