Numbers 9:17-23

[17] And when  the cloud  was taken up  from the tabernacle,  then after  that the children  of Israel  journeyed:  and in the place  where the cloud  abode,  there the children  of Israel  pitched their tents.  [18] At the commandment  of the LORD  the children  of Israel  journeyed,  and at the commandment  of the LORD  they pitched:  as long as  the cloud  abode  upon the tabernacle  they rested  [19] And when the cloud  tarried long  upon the tabernacle  many  days,  then the children  of Israel  kept  the charge  of the LORD,  and journeyed  [20] And so it was,  when the cloud  was a few  days  upon the tabernacle;  according to the commandment  of the LORD  they abode  in their tents, and according to the commandment  of the LORD  they journeyed.  [21] And so it was,  when the cloud  abode from even  unto the morning,  and that the cloud  was taken up  in the morning,  then they journeyed:  whether it was by day  or by night  that the cloud  was taken up,  they journeyed.  [22] Or whether it were two days,  or a month,  or a year,  that the cloud  tarried  upon the tabernacle,  remaining  thereon, the children  of Israel  abode  in their tents, and journeyed  not: but when it was taken up,  they journeyed.  [23] At the commandment  of the LORD  they rested  in the tents, and at the commandment  of the LORD  they journeyed:  they kept  the charge  of the LORD,  at the commandment  of the LORD  by the hand  of Moses.
