Exodus 40

1 Then the LORD said to Moses,

١ وَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى قَائِلًا:

2 “On the first day of the first month you are to set up the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting.

٢ «فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ، فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ، تُقِيمُ مَسْكَنَ خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ،

3 Put the ark of the Testimony in it and screen off the ark with the veil.

٣ وَتَضَعُ فِيهِ تَابُوتَ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ. وَتَسْتُرُ ٱلتَّابُوتَ بِٱلْحِجَابِ.

4 Then bring in the table and set out its arrangement; bring in the lampstand as well, and set up its lamps.

٤ وَتُدْخِلُ ٱلْمَائِدَةَ وَتُرَتِّبُ تَرْتِيبَهَا. وَتُدْخِلُ ٱلْمَنَارَةَ وَتُصْعِدُ سُرُجَهَا.

5 Place the gold altar of incense in front of the ark of the Testimony, and hang the curtain at the entrance to the tabernacle.

٥ وَتَجْعَلُ مَذْبَحَ ٱلذَّهَبِ لِلْبَخُورِ أَمَامَ تَابُوتِ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ. وَتَضَعُ سَجْفَ ٱلْبَابِ لِلْمَسْكَنِ.

6 Place the altar of burnt offering in front of the entrance to the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting.

٦ وَتَجْعَلُ مَذْبَحَ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ قُدَّامَ بَابِ مَسْكَنِ خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ.

7 And place the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and put water in it.

٧ وَتَجْعَلُ ٱلْمِرْحَضَةَ بَيْنَ خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ وَٱلْمَذْبَحِ، وَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَاءً.

8 Set up the surrounding courtyard and hang the curtain for the entrance to the courtyard.

٨ وَتَضَعُ ٱلدَّارَ حَوْلَهُنَّ، وَتَجْعَلُ ٱلسَّجْفَ لِبَابِ ٱلدَّارِ.

9 Take the anointing oil and anoint the tabernacle and everything in it; consecrate it along with all its furnishings, and it shall be holy.

٩ وَتَأْخُذُ دُهْنَ ٱلْمَسْحَةِ وَتَمْسَحُ ٱلْمَسْكَنَ وَكُلَّ مَا فِيهِ، وَتُقَدِّسُهُ وَكُلَّ آنِيَتِهِ لِيَكُونَ مُقَدَّسًا.

10 Anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils; consecrate the altar, and it shall be most holy.

١٠ وَتَمْسَحُ مَذْبَحَ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ وَكُلَّ آنِيَتِهِ، وَتُقَدِّسُ ٱلْمَذْبَحَ لِيَكُونَ ٱلْمَذْبَحُ قُدْسَ أَقْدَاسٍ.

11 Anoint the basin and its stand and consecrate them.

١١ وَتَمْسَحُ ٱلْمِرْحَضَةَ وَقَاعِدَتَهَا وَتُقَدِّسُهَا.

12 Then bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and wash them with water.

١٢ وَتُقَدِّمُ هَارُونَ وَبَنِيهِ إِلَى بَابِ خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ وَتَغْسِلُهُمْ بِمَاءٍ.

13 And you are to clothe Aaron with the holy garments, anoint him, and consecrate him, so that he may serve Me as a priest.

١٣ وَتُلْبِسُ هَارُونَ ٱلثِّيَابَ ٱلْمُقَدَّسَةَ وَتَمْسَحُهُ وَتُقَدِّسُهُ لِيَكْهَنَ لِي.

14 Bring his sons forward and clothe them with tunics.

١٤ وَتُقَدِّمُ بَنِيهِ وَتُلْبِسُهُمْ أَقْمِصَةً.

15 Anoint them just as you anointed their father, so that they may also serve Me as priests. Their anointing will qualify them for a permanent priesthood throughout their generations.”

١٥ وَتَمْسَحُهُمْ كَمَا مَسَحْتَ أَبَاهُمْ لِيَكْهَنُوا لِي. وَيَكُونُ ذَلِكَ لِتَصِيرَ لَهُمْ مَسْحَتُهُمْ كَهَنُوتًا أَبَدِيًّا فِي أَجْيَالِهِمْ.

16 Moses did everything just as the LORD had commanded him.

١٦ فَفَعَلَ مُوسَى بِحَسَبِ كُلِّ مَا أَمَرَهُ ٱلرَّبُّ. هَكَذَا فَعَلَ.

17 So the tabernacle was set up on the first day of the first month of the second year.

١٧ وَكَانَ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ مِنَ ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ فِي أَوَّلِ ٱلشَّهْرِ أَنَّ ٱلْمَسْكَنَ أُقِيمَ.

18 When Moses set up the tabernacle, he laid its bases, positioned its frames, inserted its crossbars, and set up its posts.

١٨ أَقَامَ مُوسَى ٱلْمَسْكَنَ، وَجَعَلَ قَوَاعِدَهُ وَوَضَعَ أَلْوَاحَهُ وَجَعَلَ عَوَارِضَهُ وَأَقَامَ أَعْمِدَتَهُ.

19 Then he spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering over the tent, just as the LORD had commanded him.

١٩ وَبَسَطَ ٱلْخَيْمَةَ فَوْقَ ٱلْمَسْكَنِ، وَوَضَعَ غِطَاءَ ٱلْخَيْمَةِ عَلَيْهَا مِنْ فَوْقُ، كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى.

20 Moses took the Testimony and placed it in the ark, attaching the poles to the ark; and he set the mercy seat atop the ark.

٢٠ وَأَخَذَ ٱلشَّهَادَةَ وَجَعَلَهَا فِي ٱلتَّابُوتِ، وَوَضَعَ ٱلْعَصَوَيْنِ عَلَى ٱلتَّابُوتِ مِنْ فَوْقُ.

21 Then he brought the ark into the tabernacle, put up the veil for the screen, and shielded off the ark of the Testimony, just as the LORD had commanded him.

٢١ وَأَدْخَلَ ٱلتَّابُوتَ إِلَى ٱلْمَسْكَنِ، وَوَضَعَ حِجَابَ ٱلسَّجْفِ وَسَتَرَ تَابُوتَ ٱلشَّهَادَةِ، كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى.

22 Moses placed the table in the Tent of Meeting on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil.

٢٢ وَجَعَلَ ٱلْمَائِدَةَ فِي خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ فِي جَانِبِ ٱلْمَسْكَنِ نَحْوَ ٱلشِّمَالِ خَارِجَ ٱلْحِجَابِ.

23 He arranged the bread on it before the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him.

٢٣ وَرَتَّبَ عَلَيْهَا تَرْتِيبَ ٱلْخُبْزِ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى.

24 He also placed the lampstand in the Tent of Meeting opposite the table on the south side of the tabernacle

٢٤ وَوَضَعَ ٱلْمَنَارَةَ فِي خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ مُقَابِلَ ٱلْمَائِدَةِ فِي جَانِبِ ٱلْمَسْكَنِ نَحْوَ ٱلْجَنُوبِ.

25 and set up the lamps before the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him.

٢٥ وَأَصْعَدَ ٱلسُّرُجَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى.

26 Moses placed the gold altar in the Tent of Meeting, in front of the veil,

٢٦ وَوَضَعَ مَذْبَحَ ٱلذَّهَبِ فِي خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ قُدَّامَ ٱلْحِجَابِ،

27 and he burned fragrant incense on it, just as the LORD had commanded him.

٢٧ وَبَخَّرَ عَلَيْهِ بِبَخُورٍ عَطِرٍ، كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى.

28 Then he put up the curtain at the entrance to the tabernacle.

٢٨ وَوَضَعَ سَجْفَ ٱلْبَابِ لِلْمَسْكَنِ.

29 He placed the altar of burnt offering near the entrance to the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting, and offered on it the burnt offering and the grain offering, just as the LORD had commanded him.

٢٩ وَوَضَعَ مَذْبَحَ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةِ عِنْدَ بَابِ مَسْكَنِ خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ، وَأَصْعَدَ عَلَيْهِ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةَ وَٱلتَّقْدِمَةَ، كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى.

30 He placed the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing;

٣٠ وَوَضَعَ ٱلْمِرْحَضَةَ بَيْنَ خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ وَٱلْمَذْبَحِ وَجَعَلَ فِيهَا مَاءً لِلِٱغْتِسَالِ،

31 and from it Moses, Aaron, and his sons washed their hands and feet.

٣١ لِيَغْسِلَ مِنْهَا مُوسَى وَهَارُونُ وَبَنُوهُ أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَأَرْجُلَهُمْ.

32 They washed whenever they entered the Tent of Meeting or approached the altar, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

٣٢ عِنْدَ دُخُولِهِمْ إِلَى خَيْمَةِ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ وَعِنْدَ ٱقْتِرَابِهِمْ إِلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ يَغْسِلُونَ، كَمَا أَمَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى.

33 And Moses set up the courtyard around the tabernacle and the altar, and he hung the curtain for the entrance to the courtyard. So Moses finished the work.

٣٣ وَأَقَامَ ٱلدَّارَ حَوْلَ ٱلْمَسْكَنِ وَٱلْمَذْبَحِ وَوَضَعَ سَجْفَ بَابِ ٱلدَّارِ. وَأَكْمَلَ مُوسَى ٱلْعَمَلَ.

34 Then the cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.

٣٤ ثُمَّ غَطَّتِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ خَيْمَةَ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ وَمَلَأَ بَهَاءُ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْمَسْكَنَ.

35 Moses was unable to enter the Tent of Meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.

٣٥ فَلَمْ يَقْدِرْ مُوسَى أَنْ يَدْخُلَ خَيْمَةَ ٱلِٱجْتِمَاعِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلسَّحَابَةَ حَلَّتْ عَلَيْهَا وَبَهَاءُ ٱلرَّبِّ مَلَأَ ٱلْمَسْكَنَ.

36 Whenever the cloud was lifted from above the tabernacle, the Israelites would set out through all the stages of their journey.

٣٦ وَعِنْدَ ٱرْتِفَاعِ ٱلسَّحَابَةِ عَنِ ٱلْمَسْكَنِ كَانَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ يَرْتَحِلُونَ فِي جَمِيعِ رِحْلَاتِهِمْ.

37 If the cloud was not lifted, they would not set out until the day it was taken up.

٣٧ وَإِنْ لَمْ تَرْتَفِعِ ٱلسَّحَابَةُ لَا يَرْتَحِلُونَ إِلَى يَوْمِ ٱرْتِفَاعِهَا،

38 For the cloud of the LORD was over the tabernacle by day, and fire was in the cloud by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel through all their journeys.

٣٨ لِأَنَّ سَحَابَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ كَانَتْ عَلَى ٱلْمَسْكَنِ نَهَارًا. وَكَانَتْ فِيهَا نَارٌ لَيْلًا أَمَامَ عُيُونِ كُلِّ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي جَمِيعِ رِحْلَاتِهِمْ.
