{Numbers 10:1-36, 6:1-27 **}

    10:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, 10:2 You make two trumpets of silver, you will make them of beaten work. And you will use them for the assembly of the congregation and for the journeying of the camps. 10:3 And when they will blow them, all the congregation will gather themselves to you at the door of the tent of meeting. 10:4 And if they blow but one, then the rulers, the heads of the thousands of Israel, will gather themselves to you. 10:5 And when you* blow an alarm, the camps that lie on the east side will take their journey. 10:6 And when you* blow an alarm the second time, the camps that lie on the south side will take their journey. They will blow an alarm for their journeys. 10:7 But when the assembly is to be gathered together, you* will blow, but you* will not shout out an alarm.

    10:8 And the sons of Aaron, the priests, will blow the trumpets and they will be to you* for an everlasting statute throughout your* genealogy. 10:9 And when you* go to war in your* land against the adversary that oppresses you*, then you* will shout out an alarm with the trumpets. And you* will be remembered before Jehovah your* God and you* will be saved from your* enemies. 10:10 Also in the day of your* gladness and in your* set feasts and in the beginnings of your* months, you* will blow the trumpets over your* burnt-offerings and over the sacrifices of your* peace-offerings. And they will be to you* for a memorial before your* God: I am Jehovah your* God.
