1 The Lord said to Moses,
2 “Make two trumpets out of hammered silver. Use them to call the community together and as a signal to break camp.
3 When you blow both trumpets, the whole community will meet with you at the entrance to the tent of meeting.
4 If only one trumpet blows, the leaders, the heads of the divisions of Israel, will meet with you.
5 When they hear the trumpet fanfare, the tribes that are camped on the east side will break camp first.
6 When the trumpets sound a second fanfare, the tribes that are camped on the south will break camp. The fanfare is the signal to break camp.
7 But when you gather the assembly, the trumpets will blow without sounding a fanfare.
