[1] And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
[2] `On the first day of the month, in the first month, thou dost raise up the tabernacle of the tent of meeting,
[3] and hast set there the ark of the testimony, and hast covered over the ark with the vail,
[4] and hast brought in the table, and set its arrangement in order, and hast brought in the candlestick, and caused its lamps to go up.
[5] `And thou hast put the golden altar for perfume before the ark of the testimony, and hast put the covering of the opening to the tabernacle,
[6] and hast put the altar of the burnt-offering before the opening of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting,
[7] and hast put the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and hast put water there.
[8] `And thou hast set the court round about, and hast placed the covering of the gate of the court,
[9] and hast taken the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle, and all that [is] in it, and hallowed it, and all its vessels, and it hath been holy;
[10] and thou hast anointed the altar of the burnt-offering, and all its vessels, and sanctified the altar, and the altar hath been most holy;
[11] and thou hast anointed the laver and its base, and sanctified it.
[12] `And thou hast brought near Aaron and his sons unto the opening of the tent of meeting, and hast bathed them with water;
[13] and thou hast clothed Aaron with the holy garments, and anointed him, and sanctified him, and he hath acted as priest to Me.
[14] `And his sons thou dost bring near, and hast clothed them with coats,
[15] and anointed them as thou hast anointed their father, and they have acted as priests to Me, and their anointing hath been to be to them for a priesthood age-during, to their generations.'
[16] And Moses doth according to all that Jehovah hath commanded him; so he hath done.
[17] And it cometh to pass, in the first month, in the second year, in the first of the month, the tabernacle hath been raised up;
[18] and Moses raiseth up the tabernacle, and setteth its sockets, and placeth its boards, and placeth its bars, and raiseth its pillars,
[19] and spreadeth the tent over the tabernacle, and putteth the covering of the tent upon it above, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
[20] And he taketh and putteth the testimony unto the ark, and setteth the staves on the ark, and putteth the mercy-seat on the ark above;
[21] and bringeth in the ark unto the tabernacle, and placeth the vail of the covering, and covereth over the ark of the testimony, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
[22] And he putteth the table in the tent of meeting, on the side of the tabernacle northward, at the outside of the vail,
[23] and setteth in order upon it the arrangement of bread, before Jehovah, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
[24] And he putteth the candlestick in the tent of meeting, over-against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward,
[25] and causeth the lamps to go up before Jehovah, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
[26] And he setteth the golden altar in the tent of meeting, before the vail,
[27] and maketh perfume on it -- spice-perfume -- as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
[28] And he setteth the covering of the opening to the tabernacle,
[29] and the altar of the burnt-offering he hath set at the opening of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and causeth the burnt-offering to go up upon it, and the present, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
[30] And he putteth the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and putteth water there for washing,
[31] and Moses and Aaron and his sons have washed their hands and their feet at the same;
[32] in their going in unto the tent of meeting, and in their drawing near unto the altar, they wash, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
[33] And he raiseth up the court round about the tabernacle, and about the altar, and placeth the covering of the gate of the court; and Moses completeth the work.
[34] And the cloud covereth the tent of meeting, and the honour of Jehovah hath filled the tabernacle;
[35] and Moses hath not been able to go in unto the tent of meeting, for the cloud hath tabernacled on it, and the honour of Jehovah hath filled the tabernacle.
[36] And in the going up of the cloud from off the tabernacle the sons of Israel journey in all their journeys;
[37] and if the cloud go not up then they journey not, until the day of its going up:
[38] for the cloud of Jehovah [is] on the tabernacle by day, and fire is in it by night, before the eyes of all the house of Israel in all their journeys.
