“A man from each tribe is to be with you, each one the head of his ancestral family.[fn]

“These are the names of the men who are to assist you:

Elizur son of Shedeur from Reuben;

“Appoint the Levites over the tabernacle of the testimony, all its furnishings, and everything in it. They are to transport the tabernacle and all its articles, take care of it, and camp around it.

“But if you have gone astray while under your husband’s authority, if you have defiled yourself and a man other than your husband has slept with you’ ​— ​

“at this point the priest will make the woman take the oath with the sworn curse, and he is to say to her ​— ​‘May the LORD make you into an object of your people’s cursing and swearing when he makes your womb[fn] shrivel and your belly swell.

“May this water that brings a curse enter your stomach, causing your belly to swell and your womb to shrivel.’

“And the woman will reply, ‘Amen, Amen.’

“may the LORD make his face shine on you

and be gracious to you;

“may the LORD look with favor on you[fn]

and give you peace.” ’

“Tell the Israelites: When any one of you or your descendants is unclean because of a corpse or is on a distant journey, he may still observe the Passover to the LORD.

“If an alien resides with you and wants to observe the Passover to the LORD, he is to do it according to the Passover statute and its ordinances. You are to apply the same statute to both the resident alien and the native of the land.”

“However, if one is sounded, only the leaders, the heads of Israel’s clans, are to gather before you.

“The sons of Aaron, the priests, are to sound the trumpets. Your use of these is a permanent statute throughout your generations.

“When you enter into battle in your land against an adversary who is attacking you, sound short blasts on the trumpets, and you will be remembered before the LORD your God and be saved from your enemies.

“You are to sound the trumpets over your burnt offerings and your fellowship sacrifices and on your joyous occasions, your appointed festivals, and the beginning of each of your months. They will serve as a reminder for you before your God: I am the LORD your God.”

Moses said to Hobab, descendant of Reuel the Midianite and Moses’s relative by marriage, “We’re setting out for the place the LORD promised, ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us, and we will treat you well, for the LORD has promised good things to Israel.”

“If you come with us, whatever good the LORD does for us we will do for you.”

Whenever the ark set out, Moses would say:

Arise, LORD!

Let your enemies be scattered,

and those who hate you flee from your presence.

“Did I conceive all these people? Did I give them birth so you should tell me, ‘Carry them at your breast, as a nursing mother carries a baby,’ to the land that you swore to give their ancestors?

“If you are going to treat me like this, please kill me right now if I have found favor with you, and don’t let me see my misery[fn] anymore.”

The LORD answered Moses, “Bring me seventy men from Israel known to you as elders and officers of the people. Take them to the tent of meeting and have them stand there with you.

“Then I will come down and speak with you there. I will take some of the Spirit who is on you and put the Spirit on them. They will help you bear the burden of the people, so that you do not have to bear it by yourself.

“Tell the people: Consecrate yourselves in readiness for tomorrow, and you will eat meat because you wept in the LORD’s hearing, ‘Who will feed us meat? We were better off in Egypt.’ The LORD will give you meat and you will eat.

“but for a whole month ​— ​until it comes out of your nostrils and becomes nauseating to you ​— ​because you have rejected the LORD who is among you, and wept before him, ‘Why did we ever leave Egypt? ’ ”

But Moses replied, “I’m in the middle of a people with six hundred thousand foot soldiers, yet you say, ‘I will give them meat, and they will eat for a month.’

The LORD answered Moses, “Is the LORD’s arm weak?[fn] Now you will see whether or not what I have promised will happen to you.”

But Moses asked him, “Are you jealous on my account? If only all the LORD’s people were prophets and the LORD would place his Spirit on them! ”

he said:

“Listen to what I say:

If there is a prophet among you from the LORD,

I make myself known to him in a vision;

I speak with him in a dream.

Then Moses cried out to the LORD, “God, please heal her! ”

“I will strike them with a plague and destroy them. Then I will make you into a greater and mightier nation than they are.”

But Moses replied to the LORD, “The Egyptians will hear about it, for by your strength you brought up this people from them.

“They will tell it to the inhabitants of this land. They have heard that you, LORD, are among these people, how you, LORD, are seen face to face, how your cloud stands over them, and how you go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and in a pillar of fire by night.

“If you kill this people with a single blow,[fn] the nations that have heard of your fame will declare,

“So now, may my Lord’s power be magnified just as you have spoken:

“Please pardon the iniquity of this people, in keeping with the greatness of your faithful love, just as you have forgiven them from Egypt until now.”

The LORD responded, “I have pardoned them as you requested.

“Since the Amalekites and Canaanites are living in the lowlands,[fn] turn back tomorrow and head for the wilderness in the direction of the Red Sea.”

“How long must I endure this evil community that keeps complaining about me? I have heard the Israelites’ complaints that they make against me.

“Tell them: As I live ​— ​this is the LORD’s declaration ​— ​I will do to you exactly as I heard you say.

“Your corpses will fall in this wilderness ​— ​all of you who were registered in the census, the entire number of you twenty years old or more ​— ​because you have complained about me.

“I swear that none of you will enter the land I promised[fn] to settle you in, except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.

“I will bring your children whom you said would become plunder into the land you rejected, and they will enjoy it.

“But as for you, your corpses will fall in this wilderness.
