Numbers 33:1-4

Contemporary English Version

Israel's Journey from Egypt to Moab

33 As Israel traveled from Egypt under the command of Moses and Aaron, ² Moses kept a list of the places they camped, just as the Lord had instructed. Here is the record of their journey:

^3-4 Israel left the Egyptian city of Rameses on the fifteenth day of the first month.^[a] This was the day after the Lord had punished Egypt's gods by killing the first-born sons in every Egyptian family. So while the Egyptians were burying the bodies, they watched the Israelites proudly^[b] leave their country.
