1製造銀號耶和華對摩西說：
1Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2“你要用銀子作兩枝號，要錘出來的，可以用來召集會眾，也可以叫會眾拔營起行。
2“Make two trumpets of silver. You shall make them of beaten work. You shall use them for the calling of the congregation, and for the journeying of the camps.
3吹號的時候，全體會眾都要到你那裡，聚集在會幕的門口。
3When they blow them, all the congregation shall gather themselves to you at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
4如果單吹一枝，眾領袖，就是以色列的族長，都要到你那裡聚集。
4If they blow just one, then the princes, the heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves to you.
5你們吹大聲的時候，那在東邊的營，都要起行。
5When you blow an alarm, the camps that lie on the east side shall go forward.
6你們第二次吹大聲的時候，那在南邊的營，都要起行；他們要起行，必須吹大聲。
6When you blow an alarm the second time, the camps that lie on the south side shall go forward. They shall blow an alarm for their journeys.
7但召集會眾的時候，你們要吹號，卻不要吹大聲。
7But when the assembly is to be gathered together, you shall blow, but you shall not sound an alarm.
8亞倫的子孫作祭司的要作吹號的；這要作你們世世代代永遠的條例。
8“The sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets. This shall be to you for a statute forever throughout your generations.
9你們在本地與欺壓你們的仇敵作戰的時候，就要吹大聲，使你們在耶和華你們的 神面前得蒙記念，也得拯救脫離你們的仇敵。
9When you go to war in your land against the adversary who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets. Then you will be remembered before Yahweh your God, and you will be saved from your enemies.
10此外，在你們快樂的日子和指定的節期，以及月朔，你們獻燔祭和平安祭的時候，也要吹號，這都要在你們的 神面前替你們作為記念；我是耶和華你們的 神。”
10“Also in the day of your gladness, and in your set feasts, and in the beginnings of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; and they shall be to you for a memorial before your God. I am Yahweh your God.”
