Numbers 10:4

And if they blow [but] with one [trumpet], then the princes, [which are] heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee.

And if they blow {H8628} but with one {H259} trumpet, then the princes {H5387}, which are heads {H7218} of the thousands {H505} of Israel {H3478}, shall gather {H3259} themselves unto thee.

If only one is sounded, then just the leaders, the heads of the clans of Isra'el, are to assemble before you.

But if only one is sounded, then the leaders, the heads of the clans of Israel, are to gather before you.

And if they blow but one, then the princes, the heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee.
