民数记 10

¹耶和华晓谕摩西说：Then the LORD said to Moses,

²“你要用银子做两枝号，都要锤出来的，用以招聚会众，并叫众营起行。“Make two trumpets of hammered silver to be used for calling the congregation and for having the camps set out.

³吹这号的时候，全会众要到你那里，聚集在会幕门口。When both are sounded, the whole congregation is to assemble before you at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

⁴若单吹一枝，众首领，就是以色列军中的统领，要聚集到你那里。But if only one is sounded, then the leaders, the heads of the clans of Israel, are to gather before you.

⁵吹出大声的时候，东边安的营都要起行。When you sound short blasts, the camps that lie on the east side are to set out.

⁶二次吹出大声的时候，南边安的营都要起行。他们将起行，必吹出大声。When 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.

⁷但招聚会众的时候，你们要吹号，却不要吹出大声。To convene the assembly, you are to sound long blasts, not short ones.

⁸亚伦子孙作祭司的要吹这号；这要作你们世世代代永远的定例。The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to sound the trumpets. This shall be a permanent statute for you and the generations to come.

⁹你们在自己的地，与欺压你们的敌人打仗，就要用号吹出大声，便在耶和华—你们的　神面前得蒙纪念，也蒙拯救脱离仇敌。When 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.

¹⁰在你们快乐的日子和节期，并月朔，献燔祭和平安祭，也要吹号，这都要在你们的　神面前作为纪念。我是耶和华—你们的　神。”And on your joyous occasions, your appointed feasts, and the beginning of each month, you are to blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and peace offerings to serve as a reminder for you before your God. I am the LORD your God.”

¹¹第二年二月二十日，云彩从法柜的帐幕收上去。On the twentieth day of the second month of the second year, the cloud was lifted from above the tabernacle of the Testimony,

¹²以色列人就按站往前行，离开西奈的旷野，云彩停住在巴兰的旷野。and the Israelites set out from the Wilderness of Sinai, traveling from place to place until the cloud settled in the Wilderness of Paran.

¹³这是他们照耶和华借摩西所吩咐的，初次往前行。They set out this first time according to the LORD’s command through Moses.

¹⁴按着军队首先往前行的是犹大营的纛。统领军队的是亚米拿达的儿子拿顺。First, the divisions of the camp of Judah set out under their standard, with Nahshon son of Amminadab in command.

¹⁵统领以萨迦支派军队的是苏押的儿子拿坦业。Nethanel son of Zuar was over the division of the tribe of Issachar,

¹⁶统领西布伦支派军队的是希伦的儿子以利押。and Eliab son of Helon was over the division of the tribe of Zebulun.

¹⁷帐幕拆卸，革顺的子孙和米拉利的子孙就抬着帐幕先往前行。Then the tabernacle was taken down, and the Gershonites and the Merarites set out, transporting it.

¹⁸按着军队往前行的是流便营的纛。统领军队的是示丢珥的儿子以利蓿。Then the divisions of the camp of Reuben set out under their standard, with Elizur son of Shedeur in command.

¹⁹统领西缅支派军队的是苏利沙代的儿子示路蔑。Shelumiel son of Zurishaddai was over the division of the tribe of Simeon,

²⁰统领迦得支派军队的是丢珥的儿子以利雅萨。and Eliasaph son of Deuel was over the division of the tribe of Gad.

²¹哥辖人抬着圣物先往前行。他们未到以前，抬帐幕的已经把帐幕支好。Then the Kohathites set out, transporting the holy objects; the tabernacle was to be set up before their arrival.

²²按着军队往前行的是以法莲营的纛，统领军队的是亚米忽的儿子以利沙玛。Next, the divisions of the camp of Ephraim set out under their standard, with Elishama son of Ammihud in command.

²³统领玛拿西支派军队的是比大蓿的儿子迦玛列。Gamaliel son of Pedahzur was over the division of the tribe of Manasseh,

²⁴统领便雅悯支派军队的是基多尼的儿子亚比但。and Abidan son of Gideoni was over the division of the tribe of Benjamin.

²⁵在诸营末后的是但营的纛，按着军队往前行。统领军队的是亚米沙代的儿子亚希以谢。Finally, the divisions of the camp of Dan set out under their standard, serving as the rear guard for all units, with Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai in command.

²⁶统领亚设支派军队的是俄兰的儿子帕结。Pagiel son of Ocran was over the division of the tribe of Asher,

²⁷统领拿弗他利支派军队的是以南的儿子亚希拉。and Ahira son of Enan was over the division of the tribe of Naphtali.

²⁸以色列人按着军队往前行，就是这样。This was the order of march for the Israelite divisions as they set out.

²⁹摩西对他岳父（或译：内兄）—米甸人流珥的儿子何巴—说：“我们要行路，往耶和华所应许之地去；他曾说：‘我要将这地赐给你们。’现在求你和我们同去，我们必厚待你，因为耶和华指着以色列人已经应许给好处。”Then 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.”

³⁰何巴回答说：“我不去；我要回本地本族那里去。”“I will not go,” Hobab replied. “Instead, I am going back to my own land and my own people.”

³¹摩西说：“求你不要离开我们；因为你知道我们要在旷野安营，你可以当作我们的眼目。“Please do not leave us,” Moses said, “since you know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you can serve as our eyes.

³²你若和我们同去，将来耶和华有什么好处待我们，我们也必以什么好处待你。”If you come with us, we will share with you whatever good things the LORD gives us.”

³³以色列人离开耶和华的山，往前行了三天的路程；耶和华的约柜在前头行了三天的路程，为他们寻找安歇的地方。So 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.

³⁴他们拔营往前行，日间有耶和华的云彩在他们以上。And the cloud of the LORD was over them by day when they set out from the camp.

³⁵约柜往前行的时候，摩西就说：“耶和华啊，求你兴起！愿你的仇敌四散！愿恨你的人从你面前逃跑！”Whenever the ark set out, Moses would say, “Rise up, O LORD! May Your enemies be scattered; may those who hate You flee before You.”

³⁶约柜停住的时候，他就说：“耶和华啊，求你回到以色列的千万人中！”And when it came to rest, he would say: “Return, O LORD, to the countless thousands of Israel.”
