The Silver Trumpets

Numbers 10

1 And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying, 2 Make thee two trumpets of silver; of beaten work shalt thou make them that thou may use them for the convocation of the congregation and for the moving of the camp. 3 And when they shall blow them, all the congregation shall join themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony. 4 But when they blow only one, then the princes, who are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee. 5 When ye blow an alarm, then ye shall move the camp of those that are lodged towards the east. 6 And when ye blow an alarm the second time, then ye shall move the camp of those that are lodged on the side of the Negev; they shall blow an alarm for their journeys. 7 But when the congregation is to be gathered together, ye shall blow, but ye shall not sound an alarm. 8 And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets; and you shall have them as a perpetual statute throughout your generations. 9 And when ye go to war in your land against the enemy that oppresses you, then ye shall blow an alarm with the trumpets; and ye shall be remembered before the LORD your God, and ye shall be saved from your enemies. 10 Also in the day of your gladness and in your solemn days and in the beginnings of your months, ye shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace, that they may be to you for a memorial before your God; I AM your God.
