1 - And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

2 - On the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.

3 - And thou shalt put in it the ark of the testimony, and cover the ark with the vail.

4 - And thou shalt bring in the table, and set in order the things that are to be set in order upon it; and thou shalt bring in the candlestick, and light its lamps.

5 - And thou shalt set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the testimony, and put the hanging of the door to the tabernacle.

6 - And thou shalt set the altar of the, burnt-offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.

7 - And thou shalt set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and shalt put water in it.

8 - And thou shalt set up the court round about, and hang up the hanging at the court-gate.

9 - And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that [is] in it, and shalt hallow it, and all its vessels: and it shall be holy.

10 - And thou shalt anoint the altar of the burnt-offering and all its vessels, and sanctify the altar: and it shall be an altar most holy.

11 - And thou shalt anoint the laver and its foot, and sanctify it.

12 - And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water.

13 - And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments, and anoint him, and sanctify him; that he may minister to me in the priest's office.

14 - And thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe them with coats:

15 - And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint their father, that they may minister to me in the priest's office: for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.

16 - Thus did Moses; according to all that the LORD commanded him, so did he.

17 - And it came to pass in the first month, in the second year, on the first [day] of the month, [that] the tabernacle was reared up.

18 - And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and fastened its sockets, and set up its boards, and put in its bars, and reared up its pillars.

19 - And he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above upon it; as the LORD commanded Moses.

20 - And he took and put the testimony into the ark, and set the staffs on the ark, and put the mercy-seat above upon the ark:

21 - And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the vail of the covering, and covered the ark of the testimony; as the LORD commanded Moses.

22 - And he put the table in the tent of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without the vail.

23 - And he set the bread in order upon it before the LORD; as the LORD had commanded Moses.

24 - And he put the candlestick in the tent of the congregation, over against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.

25 - And he lighted the lamps before the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moses.

26 - And he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation, before the vail:

27 - And he burnt sweet incense on it; as the LORD commanded Moses.

28 - And he set up the hanging [at] the door of the tabernacle.

29 - And he put the altar of burnt-offering [by] the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation, and offered upon it the burnt-offering, and the meat-offering; as the LORD commanded Moses.

30 - And he set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and put water there, to wash [with].

31 - And Moses, and Aaron, and his sons, washed their hands and their feet thereat:

32 - When they went into the tent of the congregation, and when they came near to the altar, they washed; as the LORD commanded Moses.

33 - And he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the hanging of the court-gate: so Moses finished the work.

34 - Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.

35 - And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation, because the cloud abode upon it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.

36 - And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their journeys:

37 - But if the cloud was not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up.

38 - For the cloud of the LORD [was] upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
