At the mitzvah of the LORD, the children of Yisra'el traveled, and at the mitzvah of the LORD they encamped. As long as the cloud remained on the tabernacle they remained encamped.
All the congregation of the children of Yisra'el traveled from the wilderness of Sin, by their journeys, according to the LORD's mitzvah, and encamped in Refidim; but there was no water for the people to drink.
Sometimes the cloud was a few days on the tabernacle; then according to the mitzvah of the LORD they remained encamped, and according to the mitzvah of the LORD they traveled.
