1. And Jehovah[H3068] spake[H1696] unto Moses[H4872], saying[H559],
2. On the first[H7223] day[H3117] of the first[H259] month[H2320] shalt thou rear up[H6965] the tabernacle[H4908] of the tent[H168] of meeting[H4150].
3. And thou shalt put[H7760] therein[H8033] the ark[H727] of the testimony[H5715], and thou shalt screen[H5526] the ark[H727] with the veil[H6532].
4. And thou shalt bring[H935] in the table[H7979], and set in order[H6186] the things that are upon it[H6187]; and thou shalt bring[H935] in the candlestick[H4501], and light[H5927] the lamps thereof[H5216].
5. And thou shalt set[H5414] the golden[H2091] altar[H4196] for incense[H7004] before[H6440] the ark[H727] of the testimony[H5715], and put[H7760] the screen[H4539] of the door[H6607] to the tabernacle[H4908].
6. And thou shalt set[H5414] the altar[H4196] of burnt-offering[H5930] before[H6440] the door[H6607] of the tabernacle[H4908] of the tent[H4908] of meeting[H4150].
7. And thou shalt set[H5414] the laver[H3595] between the tent[H168] of meeting[H4150] and the altar[H4196], and shalt put[H5414] water therein[H4325].
8. And thou shalt set up[H7760] the court[H2691] round about[H5439], and hang up[H5414] the screen[H4539] of the gate[H8179] of the court[H2691].
9. And thou shalt take[H3947] the anointing[H4888] oil[H8081], and anoint[H4886] the tabernacle[H4908], and all that is therein[H6942], and shalt hallow it[H3627], and all the furniture thereof[H6944]: and it shall be holy.
10. And thou shalt anoint[H4886] the altar[H4196] of burnt-offering[H5930], and all its vessels[H3627], and sanctify[H6942] the altar[H4196]: and the altar[H4196] shall be most[H6944] holy[H6944].
11. And thou shalt anoint[H4886] the laver[H3595] and its base[H3653], and sanctify it[H6942].
12. And thou shalt bring[H7126] Aaron[H175] and his sons[H1121] unto the door[H6607] of the tent[H168] of meeting[H4150], and shalt wash[H7364] them with water[H4325].
13. And thou shalt put[H3847] upon Aaron[H175] the holy[H6944] garments[H899]; and thou shalt anoint[H4886] him[H6942], and sanctify him[H3547], that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
14. And thou shalt bring[H7126] his sons[H1121], and put[H3847] coats upon them[H3801];
15. and thou shalt anoint[H4886] them[H4886], as thou didst anoint their father[H1], that they may minister unto me in the priest[H3547]'s office: and their anointing[H4888] shall be to them for an everlasting[H5769] priesthood[H3550] throughout their generations[H1755].
16. Thus did[H6213] Moses[H4872]: according to all that Jehovah[H3068] commanded[H6680] him[H6213], so did he.
17. And it came to pass in the first[H7223] month[H2320] in the second[H8145] year[H8141], on the first[H259] day of the month[H2320], that the tabernacle[H4908] was reared up[H6965].
18. And Moses[H4872] reared up[H6965] the tabernacle[H4908], and laid[H5414] its sockets[H134], and set up[H7760] the boards[H7175] thereof[H5414], and put in the bars[H1280] thereof[H6965], and reared up its pillars[H5982].
19. And he spread the tent[H168] over[H6566] the tabernacle[H4908], and put[H7760] the covering[H168] of the tent[H4908] above[H4605] upon it[H3068]; as Jehovah commanded[H6680] Moses[H4872].
20. And he took[H3947] and put[H5414] the testimony[H5715] into the ark[H727], and set[H7760] the staves[H905] on the ark[H727], and put[H5414] the mercy-seat[H3727] above[H4605] upon the ark[H727]:
21. and he brought[H935] the ark[H727] into the tabernacle[H4908], and set up[H7760] the veil[H6532] of the screen[H4539], and screened[H5526] the ark[H727] of the testimony[H5715]; as Jehovah[H3068] commanded[H6680] Moses[H4872].
22. And he put[H5414] the table[H7979] in the tent[H168] of meeting[H4150], upon the side[H3409] of the tabernacle[H4908] northward[H6828], without[H2351] the veil[H6532].
23. And he set[H6187] the bread[H3899] in order[H6186] upon it before[H6440] Jehovah[H3068]; as Jehovah[H3068] commanded[H6680] Moses[H4872].
24. And he put[H7760] the candlestick[H4501] in the tent[H168] of meeting[H4150], over against[H5227] the table[H7979], on the side[H3409] of the tabernacle[H4908] southward[H5045].
25. And he lighted[H5927] the lamps[H5216] before[H6440] Jehovah[H3068]; as Jehovah[H3068] commanded[H6680] Moses[H4872].
26. And he put[H7760] the golden[H2091] altar[H4196] in the tent[H168] of meeting[H4150] before[H6440] the veil[H6532]:
27. and he burnt[H6999] thereon incense[H7004] of sweet[H5561] spices[H3068]; as Jehovah commanded[H6680] Moses[H4872].
28. And he put[H7760] the screen[H4539] of the door[H6607] to the tabernacle[H4908].
29. And he set[H7760] the altar[H4196] of burnt-offering[H5930] at the door[H6607] of the tabernacle[H4908] of the tent[H4908] of meeting[H4150], and offered[H5927] upon it the burnt-offering[H5930] and the meal-offering[H4503]; as Jehovah[H3068] commanded[H6680] Moses[H4872].
30. And he set[H7760] the laver[H3595] between the tent[H168] of meeting[H4150] and the altar[H4196], and put[H5414] water[H4325] therein[H7364], wherewith to wash.
31. And Moses[H4872] and Aaron[H175] and his sons[H1121] washed[H7364] their hands[H3027] and their feet thereat[H7272];
32. when they went[H935] into the tent[H168] of meeting[H4150], and when they came near[H7126] unto the altar[H4196], they washed[H7364]; as Jehovah[H3068] commanded[H6680] Moses[H4872].
33. And he reared up[H6965] the court[H2691] round about[H5439] the tabernacle[H4908] and the altar[H4196], and set up[H5414] the screen[H4539] of the gate[H8179] of the court[H2691]. So Moses[H4872] finished[H3615] the work[H4399].
34. Then the cloud[H6051] covered[H3680] the tent[H168] of meeting[H4150], and the glory[H3519] of Jehovah[H3068] filled[H4390] the tabernacle[H4908].
35. And Moses[H4872] was not able[H3201] to enter[H935] into the tent[H168] of meeting[H4150], because the cloud[H6051] abode[H7931] thereon[H3519], and the glory of Jehovah[H3068] filled[H4390] the tabernacle[H4908].
36. And when the cloud[H6051] was taken up[H5927] from[H5921] over the tabernacle[H4908], the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] went onward[H5265], throughout all their journeys[H4550]:
37. but if the cloud[H6051] was not taken up[H5927], then they journeyed[H5265] not till the day[H3117] that it was taken up[H5927].
38. For the cloud[H6051] of Jehovah[H3068] was upon the tabernacle[H4908] by day[H3119], and there was fire[H784] therein by night[H3915], in the sight[H5869] of all the house[H1004] of Israel[H3478], throughout all their journeys[H4550].
