Numbers 10:2–6 · Berean Standard Bible

2 “Make two trumpets of hammered silver to be used for calling the congregation and for having the camps set out.

3 When both are sounded, the whole congregation is to assemble before you at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

4 But if only one is sounded, then the leaders, the heads of the clans of Israel, are to gather before you.

5 When you sound short blasts, the camps that lie on the east side are to set out.

6 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.
