24. Over the division of the tribe of the sons of Benjamin was Abidan son of Gideoni.
25. The standard of the camp of the tribe of the sons of Dan, being the rear guard of all the camps, set out by their divisions. Over his division was Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai.
26. Pagiel son of Ochran, was over the division of the tribe of the sons of Asher.
27. Ahira son of Enan, was over the division of the tribe of the sons of Naphtali.
28. This is the order by which Bnei-Yisrael, by their divisions, set out.
29. Moses said to Hobab son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law, “We are setting out to the place about which Adonai said, ‘I will give it to you.’ Come with us and we will do good to you, because Adonai has spoken goodness to Israel.”
30. But he said to him, “I will not go, because I would rather go to my own country and to my own people.”
31. But he said, “Do not leave us now, because you know where we should camp in the wilderness. You can be like eyes to us.
32. If you come with us, we will share with you whatever good Adonai gives to us.”
33. So they advanced from the mountain of Adonai, a trip of three days, the Ark of the covenant of Adonai going ahead of them for those three days to seek out a resting place for them.
34. The cloud of Adonai was over them by day when they advanced from the camp.
35. Whenever the Ark would set out, Moses would say: “Arise, Adonai! May Your enemies be scattered! May those who hate You flee from before You!”
36. Then whenever it came to rest, he would say: “Return, Adonai, to the myriad thousands of Israel!”
