“以色列人要各归本旗，按本族的旗号，在会幕四围稍远的地方安营。”

于是，以色列人照耶和华对摩西的吩咐，各按自己的旗号安营，各按自己的宗族启行。

举目四望，看见以色列人按支派扎营。上帝的灵降在他身上，

耶和华对摩西说：“你要用银子打造两支号，用来招聚会众和发出拔营的号令。吹响两支号时，全体会众要聚集到你那里，即会幕门口。如果只吹响一支号，担任首领的以色列各族长要聚集到你那里。如果吹响拔营的号令，在东面扎营的就要启行；第二次吹响拔营号令时，在南面扎营的就要启行。拔营号令是启行的信号。但吹号招聚会众时，不要用拔营号令。做祭司的亚伦子孙要负责吹号，这是世代不变的律例。当你们在自己的土地上跟敌人作战时，要吹号，你们的上帝耶和华必眷顾你们，救你们脱离敌人。在节期和朔日这些欢乐的日子献燔祭和平安祭的时候，你们要吹号，好在你们的上帝面前蒙眷顾。我是你们的上帝耶和华。”第二年的二月二十日，云彩从安放约柜的圣幕上升起，以色列人就从西奈旷野启行，直到云彩停在巴兰旷野时才停下来。这是他们初次照耶和华借摩西的吩咐启行。犹大旗下的营队率先出发，率领犹大支派的是亚米拿达的儿子拿顺，率领以萨迦支派的是苏押的儿子拿坦业，率领西布伦支派的是希伦的儿子以利押。然后，圣幕被拆下，革顺和米拉利的子孙抬着圣幕出发。随后出发的是吕便旗下的营队，率领吕便支派的是示丢珥的儿子以利苏，率领西缅支派的是苏利沙代的儿子示路蔑，率领迦得支派的是丢珥的儿子以利雅萨。随后出发的是哥辖人，他们抬着圣物前行。在他们到达之前，圣幕应已支好。随后出发的是以法莲旗下的营队，率领以法莲支派的是亚米忽的儿子以利沙玛，率领玛拿西支派的是比大苏的儿子迦玛列，率领便雅悯支派的是基多尼的儿子亚比但。殿后的是但旗下的营队，率领但支派的是亚米沙代的儿子亚希以谢，率领亚设支派的是俄兰的儿子帕结，率领拿弗他利支派的是以南的儿子亚希拉。这是以色列各营队拔营前行的次序。摩西对岳父流珥之子米甸人何巴说：“我们就要动身前往耶和华应许给我们的地方，祂曾说要把那地方赐给我们。请你跟我们一起去吧，我们必厚待你，耶和华已经应许要赐福给以色列人。”何巴说：“我不去了，我要回到我的家乡和亲族那里。”摩西说：“请不要离开我们。你熟悉旷野，可以做我们的向导，告诉我们在哪里扎营。如果你跟我们同去，我们一定与你分享耶和华赐给我们的福气。”以色列人离开耶和华的山，走了三天的路程，期间耶和华的约柜一直在队伍的前头，为他们寻找安营之地。他们拔营前行的时候，白天总有耶和华的云彩在他们上面。每当约柜出发的时候，摩西就说：“耶和华啊，求你兴起，击溃你的敌人，使恨你的人逃窜。”约柜停下来的时候，他就说：“耶和华啊，求你回到以色列的千万人中。”
