19 And when the cloud tarried still upon the Tabernacle a long time, the children of Israel kept the [a]watch of the Lord, and journeyed not.

20 So when the cloud abode [b]a few days upon the Tabernacle, they abode in their tents according to the commandment of the Lord: for they journeyed at the commandment of the Lord.

21 And though the cloud abode upon the Tabernacle from even unto the morning, yet if the cloud was taken up in the morning, then they journeyed: whether by day or by night the cloud was taken up, then they journeyed.
