He placed the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar, and he put water in it for washing.

Moses, Aaron, and his sons washed their hands and their feet from the basin
32 Tingtunnah dap khuila a kun ham vaengah khaw, hmueihtuk la a caeh uh vaengah khaw BOEIPA loh Moses a uen vanbangla a silh uh.
whenever they would go into the tent of meeting and whenever they would go up to the altar. They washed themselves, as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

But if the cloud did not rise up from the tabernacle, then the people would not travel. They would stay until the day that it was lifted up.

For Yahweh's cloud was over the tabernacle by day, and his fire was over it by night, in plain view of all the people of Israel throughout their journey.
