Numbers 9:18-20
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
18 At the direction of the Lord the Israelites broke camp, and at the Lord’s direction they pitched camp.(A) As long as the cloud stayed over the tabernacle, they remained in camp.
19 Even when the cloud lingered many days over the tabernacle, the Israelites kept the charge of the Lord and would not move on. 20 Yet if it happened the cloud was over the tabernacle only for a few days, at the direction of the Lord they stayed in camp; and at the Lord’s direction they broke camp.
