And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.

And you will put there [the] ark of the testimony and you will cover over the ark the curtain.

And you will put [the] altar of the burnt offering before [the] entrance of [the] tabernacle of [the] tent of meeting.
7 The laver between the altar and the tabernacle, and thou shalt fill it with water.
And you will put the laver between [the] tent of meeting and between the altar and you will put there water.
8 And thou shalt encompass the court with hangings, and the entry thereof.
And you will put the courtyard all around and you will put [the] screen of [the] gate of the courtyard.
9 And thou shalt take the oil of unction and anoint the tabernacle with its vessels, that they may be sanctified:

16 And Moses did all that the Lord had commanded.
And he did Moses according to all that he had commanded Yahweh him so he did.
17 So in the first month of the second year, the first day of the month, the tabernacle was set up.
And it was in the month first in the year second on [day] one of the month it was set up the tabernacle.
18 And Moses reared it up, and placed the boards and the sockets and the bars, and set up the pillars,
And he set up Moses the tabernacle and he put bases its and he set up frames its and he put bars its and he set up pillars its.
19 And spread the roof over the tabernacle, putting over it a cover, as the Lord had commanded.
And he spread out the tent over the tabernacle and he put [the] covering of the tent over it from to above just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.
20 And he put the testimony in the ark, thrusting bars underneath, and the oracle above.
And he took and he put the testimony into the ark and he put the poles on the ark and he put the atonement cover on the ark from to above.
21 And when he had brought the ark into the tabernacle, he drew the veil before it to fulfill the commandment of the Lord.
And he brought the ark into the tabernacle and he set up [the] curtain of the screen and he covered over [the] ark of the testimony just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.
22 And he set the table in the tabernacle of the testimony at the north side without the veil,
And he put the table in [the] tent of meeting on [the] side of the tabernacle north-ward from [the] outside of the curtain.
23 Setting there in order the loaves of proposition, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
And he arranged on it an arrangement of bread before Yahweh just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.
24 He set the candlestick also in the tabernacle of the testimony over against the table on the south side,
And he put the lampstand in [the] tent of meeting opposite to the table on [the] side of the tabernacle south-ward.
25 Placing the lamps in order, according to the precept of the Lord.
And he lifted up the lamps before Yahweh just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.
26 He set also the altar of gold under the roof of the testimony over against the veil,
And he put [the] altar of gold in [the] tent of meeting before the curtain.
27 And burnt upon it the incense of spices, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
And he made smoke on it incense of perfume just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.
28 And he put also the hanging in the entry of the tabernacle of the testimony,
And he set up [the] screen of the entrance of the tabernacle.
29 And the altar of holocaust of the entry of the testimony, offering the holocaust, and the sacrifices upon it, as the Lord had commanded.
And [the] altar of the burnt offering he set up [the] entrance of [the] tabernacle of [the] tent of meeting and he offered up on it the burnt offering and the grain offering just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.
30 And he set the laver between the tabernacle of the testimony and the altar, filling it with water.
And he put the laver between [the] tent of meeting and between the altar and he put there water for washing.
31 And Moses and Aaron, and his sons washed their hands and feet,
And they washed from it Moses and Aaron and sons his hands their and feet their.
32 When they went into the tabernacle of the covenant, and went to the altar, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
When went they into [the] tent of meeting and when drew near they to the altar they washed just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.
33 He set up also the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, drawing the hanging in the entry thereof. After all things were perfected,
And he set up the courtyard around the tabernacle and the altar and he put [the] screen of [the] gate of the courtyard and he finished Moses the work.
34 The cloud covered the tabernacle of the testimony, and the glory of the Lord filled it.
And it covered the cloud [the] tent of meeting and [the] glory of Yahweh it filled the tabernacle.
35 Neither could Moses go into the tabernacle of the covenant, the cloud covering all things and the majesty of the Lord shining, for the cloud had covered all.
And not he was able Moses to go into [the] tent of meeting for it had settled down over it the cloud and [the] glory of Yahweh it had filled the tabernacle.
36 If at any time the cloud removed from the tabernacle, the children of Israel went forward by their troops:
And when was taken up the cloud from over the tabernacle they set out [the] people of Israel in all journeyings their.
37 If it hung over, they remained in the same place.
And if not it was taken up the cloud and not they set out until [the] day was taken up it.
38 For the cloud of the Lord hung over the tabernacle by day, and a fire by night, in the sight of all the children of Israel throughout all their mansions.
For [the] cloud of Yahweh [was] over the tabernacle by day and fire it was night on it to [the] eyes of all [the] house of Israel in all journeyings their.
