And it happened in the morning watch: Jehovah looked on the camp of the Egyptians in the pillar of fire and cloud. And He confused the camp of the Egyptians.

And they pulled up stakes from the mount of Jehovah three days’ journey. And the ark of the covenant of Jehovah pulled out before them, three days’ journey, to seek out a resting place for them.
And they will say to the one living in this land, They have heard that You, Jehovah, are in the midst of this people, who is seen eye with eye. You are Jehovah, and Your cloud stands over them; in a pillar of cloud You go before them by day, and in a pillar of fire by night.
