1 These are the journeys of the children of
Israel, when they went out of the land of Egypt by their armies under the hand
of Moses and Aaron. 2 Moses wrote their goings out according to their
journeys by the commandment of Jehovah. These are their journeys according to
their goings out.
3 They traveled from Rameses in the first month,
on the fifteenth day of the first month; on the next day after the Passover,
the children of Israel went out with a high hand in the sight of all the
Egyptians, 4 while the Egyptians were burying all their firstborn, whom Jehovah
had struck among them. Jehovah also executed judgments on their gods. 5 The
children of Israel traveled from Rameses, and encamped in Succoth.
6 They traveled from Succoth, and encamped in
Etham, which is in the edge of the wilderness. 7 They traveled from Etham,
and turned back to Pihahiroth, which is before Baal Zephon: and they encamped
before Migdol. 8 They traveled from before Hahiroth, and crossed through
the middle of the sea into the wilderness. They went three days’ journey in the
wilderness of Etham, and encamped in Marah. 9 They traveled from Marah,
and came to Elim. In Elim, there were twelve springs of water, and seventy palm
trees; and they encamped there. 10 They traveled from Elim, and encamped
by the Red Sea.
11 They traveled from the Red Sea, and encamped
in the wilderness of Sin. 12 They traveled from the wilderness of Sin, and
encamped in Dophkah. 13 They traveled from Dophkah, and encamped in Alush.
14 They traveled from Alush, and encamped in Rephidim, where there was no
water for the people to drink. 15 They traveled from Rephidim, and
encamped in the wilderness of Sinai. 16 They traveled from the wilderness
of Sinai, and encamped in Kibroth Hattaavah. 17 They traveled from Kibroth
Hattaavah, and encamped in Hazeroth. 18 They traveled from Hazeroth, and
encamped in Rithmah. 19 They traveled from Rithmah, and encamped in Rimmon
Perez. 20 They traveled from Rimmon Perez, and encamped in Libnah. 21 They
traveled from Libnah, and encamped in Rissah.
22 They traveled from Rissah, and encamped in
Kehelathah. 23 They traveled from Kehelathah, and encamped in Mount
Shepher. 24 They traveled from Mount Shepher, and encamped in Haradah. 25 They
traveled from Haradah, and encamped in Makheloth. 26 They traveled from
Makheloth, and encamped in Tahath. 27 They traveled from Tahath, and
encamped in Terah. 28 They traveled from Terah, and encamped in Mithkah. 29 They
traveled from Mithkah, and encamped in Hashmonah. 30 They traveled from
Hashmonah, and encamped in Moseroth. 31 They traveled from Moseroth, and
encamped in Bene Jaakan. 32 They traveled from Bene Jaakan, and encamped
in Hor Haggidgad. 33 They traveled from Hor Haggidgad, and encamped in
Jotbathah. 34 They traveled from Jotbathah, and encamped in Abronah. 35 They
traveled from Abronah, and encamped in Ezion Geber. 36 They traveled from
Ezion Geber, and encamped at Kadesh in the wilderness of Zin.
37 They traveled from Kadesh, and encamped in
Mount Hor, in the edge of the land of Edom. 38 Aaron the priest went up
into Mount Hor at the commandment of Jehovah, and died there, in the fortieth
year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, in the
fifth month, on the first day of the month. 39 Aaron was one hundred
twenty-three years old when he died in Mount Hor. 40 The Canaanite, the
king of Arad, who lived in the South in the land of Canaan, heard of the coming
of the children of Israel.
41 They traveled from Mount Hor, and encamped in
Zalmonah. 42 They traveled from Zalmonah, and encamped in Punon. 43 They
traveled from Punon, and encamped in Oboth. 44 They traveled from Oboth,
and encamped in Iye Abarim, in the border of Moab. 45 They traveled from
Iyim, and encamped in Dibon Gad. 46 They traveled from Dibon Gad, and
encamped in Almon Diblathaim. 47 They traveled from Almon Diblathaim, and
encamped in the mountains of Abarim, before Nebo. 48 They traveled from
the mountains of Abarim, and encamped in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at
Jericho. 49 They encamped by the Jordan, from Beth Jeshimoth even to Abel
Shittim in the plains of Moab.
50 Jehovah spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab
by the Jordan at Jericho, saying, 51 Speak to the children of Israel, and
tell them, “When you pass over the Jordan into the land of Canaan, 52 then
you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, destroy
all their stone idols, destroy all their molten images, and demolish all their
high places. 53 You shall take possession of the land, and dwell therein;
for I have given the land to you to possess it. 54 You shall inherit the
land by lot according to your families; to the more you shall give the more
inheritance, and to the fewer you shall give the less inheritance. Wherever the
lot falls to any man, that shall be his. You shall inherit according to the
tribes of your fathers.
55 “But if you do not drive out the inhabitants
of the land from before you, then those you let remain of them will be as
pricks in your eyes and as thorns in your sides, and they will harass you in
the land in which you dwell. 56 It shall happen that as I thought to do to
them, so will I do to you.”
