As long as the cloud rested over the tabernacle, they remained camped. 19 Even when the cloud lingered over the tabernacle for many days, the people of Israel kept the LORD’s command and did not set out. 20 Sometimes the cloud remained over the tabernacle for only a few days. In that case, they camped at the LORD's command and then set out at the LORD's command. 21 Sometimes the cloud remained only from evening until morning, and when the cloud lifted in the morning, they set out. Whether by day or by night, when the cloud lifted, they set out. 22 Whether it remained for two days, a month, or longer, as long as the cloud rested over the tabernacle, the people of Israel remained camped and did not set out. But when it lifted, they set out.
