Numbers 9:20 in Context — Numbers 9

18 Al mandato de Jehová los hijos de Israel se partían: y al mandato de Jehová asentaban el campo: todos los días que la nube estaba sobre el tabernáculo, ellos estaban quedos.

19 Y cuando la nube se detenía sobre el tabernáculo muchos días, entonces los hijos de Israel guardaban la ordenanza de Jehová y no partían.

20 Y cuando sucedía que la nube estaba sobre el tabernáculo pocos días, al dicho de Jehová alojaban, y al dicho de Jehová partían.

21 Y cuando era que la nube se detenía desde la tarde hasta la mañana, cuando á la mañana la nube se levantaba, ellos partían: ó [si había estado] el día, y á la noche la nube se levantaba, entonces partían.

22 O si dos días, ó un mes, ó un año, mientras la nube se detenía sobre el tabernáculo quedándose sobre él, los hijos de Israel se estaban acampados, y no movían: mas cuando ella se alzaba, ellos movían.
