1. These are the stages of the people of Israel, when they went out of the land of Egypt by their companies under the leadership of Moses and Aaron.
2. Moses wrote down their starting places, stage by stage, by command of the Lord, and these are their stages according to their starting places.
3. They set out from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month. On the day after the Passover, the people of Israel went out triumphantly in the sight of all the Egyptians,
4. while the Egyptians were burying all their firstborn, whom the Lord had struck down among them. On their gods also the Lord executed judgments.
5. So the people of Israel set out from Rameses and camped at Succoth.
6. And they set out from Succoth and camped at Etham, which is on the edge of the wilderness.
7. And they set out from Etham and turned back to Pi-hahiroth, which is east of Baal-zephon, and they camped before Migdol.
8. And they set out from before Hahiroth and passed through the midst of the sea into the wilderness, and they went a three days’ journey in the wilderness of Etham and camped at Marah.
9. And they set out from Marah and came to Elim; at Elim there were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees, and they camped there.
