The cloud stopped in the Pa'ran Desert. 13 So they set out on their first journey, in keeping with Adonai 's order through Moshe. 14 In the lead was the banner of the camp of the descendants of Y'hudah, whose companies moved forward; over his company was Nachshon the son of ‘Amminadav. 15 Over the company of the tribe of the descendants of Yissakhar was N'tan'el the son of Tzu‘ar. 16 Over the company of the descendants of Z'vulun was Eli'av the son of Helon. 17 Then the tabernacle was taken down; and the descendants of Gershon and the descendants of M'rari set out, carrying the tabernacle. 18 Next, the banner of the camp of Re'uven moved forward by companies; over his company was Elitzur the son of Sh'de'ur. 19 Over the company of the tribe of the descendants of Shim‘on was Shlumi'el the son of Tzurishaddai. 20 Over the company of the descendants of Gad was Elyasaf the son of De‘u'el.
