Numbers 33

¹ These are the journeys of the sons of Israel when they went forth from the land of Egypt by their militia hosts under the hand of Moses and Aaron. ² Moses wrote down their exit-places of their journeys at the bidding of Yahweh. And these are their decampments at their exit-places. ³ They journeyed from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month. On the morrow after the passover the sons of Israel went forth with a high hand before the eyes of all the Egyptian. ⁴ while the Egyptians were entombing those whom Yahweh had smitten among them, every firstborn, when Yahweh had executed judgments on their elohim. ⁵ The sons of Israel journeyed from Rameses and encamped at Succoth. ⁶ They journeyed from Succoth and encamped in Etham, which was at the end of the wilderness. ⁷ They journeyed from Etham and turned back to Pi-hahiroth, which was adjoining Baal-zephon and encamped before Midgol. ⁸ They journeyed from Pi-hahiroth and crossed in the midst of the sea to the wilderness, went a way of three day into the wilderness of Etham and encamped at Marah. ⁹ They journeyed from Marah and came to Elim. There were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees at Elim, and they encamped there. ¹⁰ They journeyed from Elim and encamped by the Sea of Weeds. ¹¹ They journeyed from the Sea of Weeds and encamped in the wilderness of Sin. ¹² They journeyed from the wilderness of Sin and encamped at Dophkah. ¹³ They journeyed from Dophkah and encamped at Alush. ¹⁴ They journeyed from Alush and encamped at Rephidim; there was no water there for the people to drink. ¹⁵ They journeyed from Rephidim and encamped in the wilderness of Sinai. ¹⁶ They journeyed from the wilderness of Sinai and encamped at Kibroth-hattaavah. ¹⁷ They journeyed from Kibroth-hattaavah and encamped at Hazeroth. ¹⁸ They journeyed from Hazeroth and encamped at Rithmah. ¹⁹ They journeyed from Rithmah and encamped at Rimmon-perez. ²⁰ They journeyed from Rimmon-perez and encamped at Libnah. ²¹ They journeyed from Libnah and encamped at Rissah. ²² They journeyed from Rissah and encamped at Kehelathah. ²³ They journeyed from Kehelathah and encamped at Mount Shepher. ²⁴ They journeyed from Mount Shepher and encamped at Haradah. ²⁵ They journeyed from Haradah and encamped at Makheloth. ²⁶ They journeyed from Makheloth and encamped at Tahath. ²⁷ They journeyed from Tahath and encamped at Tarah. ²⁸ They journeyed from Tarah and encamped at Mithkah. ²⁹ They journeyed from Mithkah and encamped at Hashmonah. ³⁰ They journeyed from Hashmonah and encamped at Moseroth. ³¹ They journeyed from Moseroth and encamped at Bene-jaakan. ³² They journeyed from Bene-jaakan and encamped at Hor-haggidgad. ³³ They journeyed from Hor-haggidgad and encamped at Jotbathah. ³⁴ They journeyed from Jotbathah and encamped at Abronah. ³⁵ They journeyed from Abronah and encamped at Ezion-geber. ³⁶ They journeyed from Ezion-geber and encamped in the wilderness of Zin. They journeyed from the wilderness of Zin and encamped in the wilderness of Paran; it is toward Kadesh. ³⁷ They journeyed from Kadesh and encamped at Mount Hor in the outmost part of the land of Edom. ³⁸ Then Aaron the priest went up onto Mount Hor at the bidding of Yahweh, and he died there in the fortieth year after going forth of the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, in the fifth month, on day one of the month. ³⁹ Aaron was a hundred twenty-three years old at his death on Mount Hor. ⁴⁰ Then the Canaanite king of Arad, he who was dwelling in the Negev in the land of Canaan, heard of the coming of the sons of Israel. ⁴¹ They journeyed from Mount Hor and encamped at Zalmonah. ⁴² They journeyed from Zalmonah and encamped at Punon. ⁴³ They journeyed from Punon and encamped in Oboth. ⁴⁴ They journeyed from Oboth and encamped at Iyim of the Abarim at the boundary of Moab. ⁴⁵ They journeyed from Iyim and encamped at Dibon-gad. ⁴⁶ They journeyed from Dibon-gad and encamped at Almon-diblathaim. ⁴⁷ They journeyed from Almon-diblathaim and encamped in the mountains of the Abarim before Nebo. ⁴⁸ They journeyed from the mountains of Abarim and encamped in the plains of Moab along the Jordan across from Jericho. ⁴⁹ They encamped along the Jordan from Beth-Jesimoth as far as Abel-Shittim in the plains of Moab. ⁵⁰ Yahweh spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab along the Jordan across from Jericho, saying. ⁵¹ Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them: When you are crossing the Jordan into the land of Canaan ⁵² then you will evict all the dwellers of the land from before you and destroy all their pictures; and all their molten images shall you destroy, and all their fane heights shall you exterminate. ⁵³ You will prepare the land for tenancy and dwell in it, for to you I give the land to tenant it. ⁵⁴ And you will entail the land by lot, by your families. For the numerous one you shall increase his allotment, and for the little one you shall decrease his allotment. Whenever the lot comes forth for him it shall be his. By the stocks of your fathers shall you entail among yourselves. ⁵⁵ Yet if you should not evict the dwellers of the land from your presence, then those whom you are leaving of them will become barbs in your eyes and pricks in your sides, and they will distress you in the land in which you are dwelling. ⁵⁶ And it will come to be: just as I meant to do to them, I shall do to you.
