1
These are the journeys of the children of Israel, who went out of the land of Egypt by their armies under the hand 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 departed from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month; on the day after the Passover the children of Israel went out with boldness in the sight of all the Egyptians.
4
For the Egyptians were burying all their firstborn, whom the Lord had killed among them. Also on their gods the Lord had executed judgments.
5
Then the children of Israel moved from Rameses and camped at Succoth.
6
They departed from Succoth and camped at Etham, which is on the edge of the wilderness.
7
They moved from Etham and turned back to Pi Hahiroth, which is east of Baal Zephon; and they camped near Migdol.
