1. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2. “Make two silver trumpets for yourself; you shall make them of hammered work; you shall use them for calling the congregation and for directing the movement of the camps.
3. When they blow both of them, all the congregation shall gather before you at the door of the tabernacle of meeting.
4. But if they blow only one, then the leaders, the heads of the divisions of Israel, shall gather to you.
5. When you sound the advance, the camps that lie on the east side shall then begin their journey.
6. When you sound the advance the second time, then the camps that lie on the south side shall begin their journey; they shall sound the call for them to begin their journeys.
