NUM 10:1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
NUM 10:2 Make thee two trumpets of silver; of beaten work shalt thou make them; and they shall serve for the calling together of the assembly, and for the journeying of the camps.
NUM 10:3 And when they shall blow with them, the whole assembly shall gather to thee at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
NUM 10:4 And if they blow with one, then the princes, the heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather unto thee.
NUM 10:5 And when ye blow an alarm, the camps that lie eastward shall set forward.
NUM 10:6 And when ye blow an alarm the second time, the camps that lie southward shall set forward; they shall blow an alarm on their setting forward.
NUM 10:7 And when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not blow an alarm:
NUM 10:8 the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow with the trumpets; and they shall be to you for an everlasting statute throughout your generations.
NUM 10:9 And if ye go to war in your land against the enemy that oppresseth you, then ye shall blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before Jehovah your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies.
NUM 10:10 And in the day of your gladness, and in your set feasts, and in your new moons, ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt-offerings and over your sacrifices of peace-offering; and they shall be to you for a memorial before your God: I am Jehovah your God.

NUM 10:30 And he said to him, I will not go; but to mine own land, and to my kindred will I go.
