And the
Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
02 On the first day of the first month
shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of
the congregation.
03 And thou shalt put therein the ark of
the testimony, and cover the ark with the vail.
04 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 the lamps thereof.
05 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.
06 And thou shalt set the altar of the
burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle
of the tent of the congregation.
07 And thou shalt set the laver between the
tent of the congregation and the altar, and shalt
put water therein.
08 And thou shalt set up the court round
about, and hang up the hanging at the court gate.
09 And thou shalt take the anointing oil,
and anoint the tabernacle, and all that is
therein, and shalt hallow it, and all the vessels
thereof: and it shall be holy.
10 And thou shalt anoint the altar of the
burnt offering, and all his vessels, and sanctify
the altar: and it shall be an altar most holy.
11 And thou shalt anoint the laver and his
foot, and sanctify it.
12 And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons
unto 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 unto 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
unto 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 his sockets, and set up the boards
thereof, and put in the bars thereof, and reared
up his 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 staves 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 thereon; 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 withal.
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 unto 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
thereon, 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 were 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.
