And thou shalt set up the court round about, and hang up the hanging at the court-gate.
9 “Kinu thei thao chu choiyin lang houbuh sung'a thil-le-lo ijakai nanu sohkei ding, aboncha atheng ding'a nathenso ding ahi.”
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.

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 Pakaiyin athupeh bang chun Mose'n jong atong kimsoh kei tan ahi.
Thus did Moses; according to all that the LORD commanded him, so did he.
17 Kumkit-kum thah lha masa nikho ma sapen'in houbuh chu atung doh tan ahi.
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 Mose'n hichengse jaonan houbuh chu ana-tung doh tan ahi; akhom ho, amoljol ho, pal khom ho abonchan atong kimsoh keiyin ahi.
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 Chuin aman houbuh chung lam'a pon akhu'n Pakai thupeh bang'in abol'in ahi.
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 Aman hettohsahna song-pheng chengse chu alan tingkong sung lam'a chu akoiyin ahi. Chuin aman thingkong chungvum'a chun moljol chu akoilut'in thingkong chungvum'a chun hepi touna akoiyin ahi.
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 Aman thingkong chu houbuh lailung'a ahin pu'n pondal kikhu chu ahohdoh paijin, Pakaiyin athupeh bang chun abol in ahi.
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 Chuban in Mose'n houbuh sung lam'a chun dokhang akoiyin, polam pondal kilan'na achun akoiyin ahi.
And he put the table in the tent of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without the vail.
23 Chule aman dokhang chung'a chun Pakai angsung'a ding in changlhah akoiyin ahi. Hichu Pakai thupeh bang'a abol ahiye.
And he set the bread in order upon it before the LORD; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
24 Aman houbuh lhang lam dokhang chule muntheng laiya chu thaomei atung doh tan ahi.
And he put the candlestick in the tent of the congregation, over against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.
25 Chuin aman thaomei chu atung doh tan, Pakaiyin athupeh bang'a abol ahi.
And he lighted the lamps before the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moses.
26 Aman ponbuh sung lam'a chun sana gimnamtui chu aluoi doh'in hichu pondal maiya muntheng chungnung chu ahi. Achung'a chun sana gimnamtui chu ahal'in ahi. Ajeh chu Pakaiyin athupeh bang'a abol ahi.
And he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation, before the vail:
And he burnt sweet incense on it; as the LORD commanded Moses.
28 Aman houbuh kotphung maija chun
And he set up the hanging [at] the door of the tabernacle.
29 Chule aman houbuh lut-na kotbul'a chun pumgo thilto maichan chu akoiyin ahi. Achung'a chun pumgo thilto akatdoh'in ahi. Ajeh chu Pakaiyin athupeh bang'a abol ahi.
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 Chu ban in Mose'n houbuh le maicham kimlaija chun kisilna-kong chu akoiyin ahi. Aman kong dimset chun twi adip tan, ajeh chu thempu kinbol'a pang hon kisilna'a amanchah ding ahi.
And he set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and put water there, to wash [with].
31 Mose chule Aaron le achapate'n kong- sung'a twi chu kisilna'a aman chah diu ahi.
And Moses, and Aaron, and his sons, washed their hands and their feet thereat:
32 Houbuh maicham lam ahinjut lut teng ule, kisil ngimna'a aman jing ding'u ahi. Ajeh chu Pakaiyin Mose heng'a athupeh ahi.
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 Chuin aman houbuh le maicham kimvel chengsea chun pondal akhaiyin ahi. Chule kelkot lam'a jong pondal akhaijin ahi. Ajonan Mose'n natoh ijakai atong kimsoh keijin ahi.
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 Meibol'in ponbuh chu akhu jeng tan ahile, Pakai loupina chu kikhop khom'na ponbuh adim lha jeng tai.
Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
35 Mose chu houbuh sung lam'a chun alut thei tapon akiting den tai, ajeh chu meibol lom chu kiheh jeng ahitan, chule Pakai loupi na chun houbuh chu atomlhah jeng ahitai.
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 Tun meibol jong chu houbuh akon'in ahung kitol tan ahile, Israel mite jeng jong meibol chie dungjuijin akitol tha jitauvin ahi.
And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their journeys:
37 Amavang meibol aum den laisen, amaho jong aumden jitauve.
But if the cloud was not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up.
38 Pakaiya konna meibol chun nilhum kei jin houbuh chu atomlha jeng tan, janteng mei-kong in akilah'jin ahile Israel mite'n amittah'uvin amuthei jun ahi. Hiche hin a kholjin na chan uva ahin jui peh ahi.
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.
