1. These are the journeys of the children of Israel, who went out of the land of Egypt by their armies under the hand of Moses and Aaron.
2. Now Moses wrote down the starting points of their journeys at the command of the Lord. And these are their journeys according to their starting points:
3. They departed from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month; on the day after the Passover the children of Israel went out with boldness in the sight of all the Egyptians.
4. For the Egyptians were burying all their firstborn, whom the Lord had killed among them. Also on their gods the Lord had executed judgments.
5. Then the children of Israel moved from Rameses and camped at Succoth.
