Numbers 33

1These are the lodging places of the sons of Israel, who departed from Egypt by their companies under the hand of Moses and Aaron

2which Moses wrote down according to the places of the encampments, which they changed upon the order of the Lord

3Thus the sons of Israel set out from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month, on the day after the Passover, with an exalted hand, being seen by all the Egyptians

4And these were burying their firstborn, whom the Lord had struck down (for so, too, did he carry out retribution against their gods)

5And they made camp at Soccoth

6And from Soccoth they went to Etham, which is at the furthest limits of the wilderness

7Departing from there, they arrived opposite Pi-hahiroth, which looks out toward Baal-zephon, and they were encamped before Migdol

8And setting out from Pi-hahiroth, they crossed through the middle of the Sea into the wilderness. And having walked for three days through the desert of Etham, they made camp at Marah

9And setting out from Marah, they arrived at Elim, where there were twelve fountains of water and seventy palm trees. And they set up camp there

10But departing from there also, they fixed their tents above the Red Sea. And setting out from the Red Sea

11they were encamped in the desert of Sin

12Departing from there, they went to Dophkah

13And setting out from Dophkah, they made camp at Alush

14And departing from Alush, they fixed their tents at Rephidim, where the people lacked water to drink

15And setting out from Rephidim, they camped in the desert of Sinai

16But departing also from the wilderness of the Sinai, they arrived at the Graves of Lust

17And setting out from the Graves of Lust, they were encamped at Hazeroth

18And from Hazeroth, they went to Rithmah

19And setting out from Rithmah, they made camp at Rimmon-perez

20And departing from there, they arrived at Libnah

21From Libnah, they made camp at Rissah

22And departing from Rissah, they went to Kehelathah

23Setting out from there, they were encamped at mount Shepher

24Departing from mount Shepher, they went to Haradah

25Continuing on from there, they made camp at Makheloth

26And setting out from Makheloth, they went to Tahath

27From Tahath, they made camp at Terah

28Departing from there, they pitched their tents at Mithkah

29And from Mithkah, they were encamped at Hashmonah

30And setting out from Hashmonah, they went to Moseroth

31And from Moseroth, they made camp at Bene-jaakan

32And setting out from Bene-jaakan, they went to mount Gidgad

33Setting out from there, they were encamped at Jotbathah

34And from Jotbathah, they went to Abronah

35And departing from Abronah, they made camp at Eziongeber

36Setting out from there, they went into the desert of Sin, which is Kadesh

37And departing from Kadesh, they encamped at mount Hor, at the furthermost limits of the land of Edom

38And Aaron the priest ascended onto mount Hor, by the order of the Lord. And there he died, in the fortieth year of the departure of the sons of Israel from Egypt, in the fifth month, on the first day of the month

39when he was one hundred twenty-three years old

40And king Arad the Canaanite, who lived toward the south, heard that the sons of Israel had arrived in the land of Canaan

41And setting out from mount Hor, they made camp at Zalmonah

42Departing from there, they went to Punon

43And setting out from Punon, they were encamped at Oboth

44And from Oboth, they went to Iye-abarim, which is at the borders of the Moabites

45And setting out from Iye-abarim, they fixed their tents at Dibon-gad

46Departing from there, they made camp at Almon-diblathaim

47And departing from Almon-diblathaim, they went to the mountains of Abarim, opposite Nebo

48And setting out from the mountains of Abarim, they crossed over to the plains of Moab, above the Jordan, opposite Jericho

49And they made camp there, from Beth-jeshimoth all the way to Abel-shittim, in the level places of the Moabites

50where the Lord said to Moses

51“Instruct the sons of Israel, and say to them: When you will have crossed over the Jordan, entering into the land of Canaan

52destroy all the inhabitants of that land. Break their monuments, and shatter their statues, and lay waste to every exalted thing

53cleansing the land and living in it. For I have given it you as a possession

54which you shall divide among you by lot. To the greater number you shall give more, and to the lesser number, less. To each one, just as the lot shall fall, so shall the inheritance be distributed. The possession shall be divided by the tribes and families

55But if you are not willing to put to death the inhabitants of the land, those who remain shall be to you like spikes in your eyes and lances in your sides, and they shall be adversaries to you in the land of your habitation

56And whatever I had decided to do to them, I will do to you.
