Numbers 10:1–10

And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, ²Make thee two trumpets of silver; of ^aa whole piece thou shalt make them: that thou mayest use them for the ^bcalling of the assembly, and for the journeying of the camps. ³And when ^cthey shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation. ⁴And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, which are ^dheads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee. ⁵When ye blow ^ean alarm, then ^fthe camps that lie on the east parts shall go forward. ⁶When you blow ^ean alarm the second time, then the camps that lie ^gon the south side shall take their journey: they shall blow ^ean alarm for their journeys. ⁷But when the congregation is to be gathered together, you shall blow, but you shall not ^hsound an alarm. ⁸ⁱAnd the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the trumpets; and they shall be to you for an ordinance for ever throughout your generations. ⁹And ^kif ye go to war in your land against the enemy that ^loppresseth you, then ye shall blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be ^mremembered before the Lord your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies. ¹⁰Also ⁿin the day of your gladness, and in your solemn days, and ^oin the beginnings of your months, ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; that they may be to you for a memorial before your God: I am the Lord your God.
