1
And it came to pass that Moses came out from the Tenta, saying: Make thee two trumpets of silver;
2
Of a whole piece shalt thou make them, that thou mayest use them for the calling of the assembly and for the journeyings of the camps, and the Levites shall blow the trumpets.
3
And when the Levites shall blow them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the Tabernacle of the Congregationa before YHVHb.
4
And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves;
5
And when ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east parts shall go forward;
6
When ye blow an alarm the second time, then the camps that lie on the south side shall take their journey; they shall blow an alarm for their journeys;
7
But when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm.
8
¶ And if ye go to war in your land against the enemy that oppresseth you, then the Levites shall blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before YHVH, your Elohima, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.
9
Also in the day of your gladness, and in your solemn days, and in the beginnings of your months, the Levites shall blow with the trumpets over the burnt offeringsa and over the sacrifices of the peace offeringsb.
10
¶ And it came to pass that the trumpets were made and were thus given to the Levites throughout the camps, that Levites that were amongst the people could sound the call, even as Moses had spoken, by the will of YHVH.
