Ako bi se oblak digao pošto se zadržao od večeri do jutra, oni bi tada ujutro krenuli na put. Danju ili noću, kad bi se oblak digao, oni bi krenuli na put.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And [so] it was when the cloud abode from even unto the morning,.... The whole night, during which time they rested in their beds:

and [that] the cloud was taken up in the morning, then they journeyed;

whether [it was] by day or night that the cloud was taken up, they journeyed; whether at morning or midnight; for sometimes, as Aben Ezra observes, they travelled in the night; whensoever their sentinels gave notice that the cloud was taken up, even though at midnight, they arose and prepared for their journey; and by this it is evident, that the appearance by day and night was the same body called the cloud, though beheld in a different view, in the daytime as a cloud, in the nighttime as fire.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Numbers 9:21. Whether - by day or by night — As the heat of the day is very severe in that same desert, the night season is sometimes chosen for the performance of a journey; though it is very likely that in the case of the Israelites this was seldom resorted to.
