Numbers 33:3

Israel’s Journey from Egypt Reviewed

1 These are the journeys of the children of Israel, who went out of the land of Egypt by their armies under the ^ahand of Moses and Aaron.

2 Now Moses wrote down the starting points of their journeys at the command of the Lord. And these are their journeys according to their starting points:

3 They ^adeparted from Rameses in ^bthe first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month; on the day after the Passover the children of Israel went out ^cwith boldness in the sight of all the Egyptians.

4 For the Egyptians were burying all their firstborn, ^awhom the Lord had killed among them. Also ^bon their gods the Lord had executed judgments.

5 ^aThen the children of Israel moved from Rameses and camped at Succoth.

6 They departed from ^aSuccoth and camped at Etham, which is on the edge of the wilderness.

7 ^aThey moved from Etham and turned back to Pi Hahiroth, which is east of Baal Zephon; and they camped near Migdol.

8 They departed¹ from before Hahiroth and ^apassed through the midst of the sea into the wilderness, went three days’ journey in the Wilderness of Etham, and camped at Marah.
