And the Lord spak to Moises, `and seide,

In the firste monethe, in the firste dai of the monethe, thou schalt reise the tabernacle of witnessyng.
3 And thou shalt put therein the Arke of the Testimonie, and couer the Arke with the vaile.
And thou schalt sette the arke therynne, and thou schalt leeue a veil bifore it.
4 Also thou shalt bring in the Table, and set it in order as it doth require: thou shalt also bring in the Candlesticke, and light his lampes,
And whanne the bord is borun yn, thou schalt sette ther onne tho thingis, that ben comaundid iustli. The candilstike schal stonde with hise lanternes,
5 And thou shalt set ye incense Altar of gold before the Arke of the Testimonie, and put the hanging at the doore of the Tabernacle.
and the goldun auter, where ynne encense is brent bifor the arke of witnessyng. Thou schalt sette a tente in the entryng of the tabernacle;
6 Moreouer, thou shalt set the burnt offering Altar before the doore of the Tabernacle, called the Tabernacle of the Congregation.
and bifor it the auter of brent sacrifice,
7 And thou shalt set the Lauer betweene the Tabernacle of the Congregation and the Altar, and put water therein.
the `waischyng vessel bitwixe the auter and the tabernacle, which `waischyng vessel thou schalt fille with water.
8 Then thou shalt appoynt the courte round about, and hang vp the hanging at the courte gate.
And thou schalt cumpas the greet street, and the entryng ther of with tentis.
9 After, thou shalt take the anoynting oyle, and anoynt the Tabernacle, and all that is therein, and halowe it with all the instruments thereof, that it may be holy.
And whanne thou hast take oyle of anoyntyng, thou schalt anoynte the tabernacle, with hise vessels, that tho be halewid;
10 And thou shalt anoynt the Altar of the burnt offring, and all his instruments, and shalt sanctifie the Altar, that it may bee an altar most holie.

11 Also thou shalt anoynt the Lauer, and his foote, and shalt sanctifie it.

12 Then thou shalt bring Aaron and his sonnes vnto the doore of the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and wash them with water.
And thou schalt present Aaron and hise sones to the dore of the tabernacle of witnessyng;
13 And thou shalt put vpon Aaron the holy garmentes, and shalt anoynt him, and sanctifie him, that he may minister vnto me in the Priestes office.
14 Thou shalt also bring his sonnes, and clothe them with garments,
15 And shalt anoynt them as thou diddest anoynt their father, that they may minister vnto mee in the Priestes office: for their anoynting shall be a signe, that the Priesthood shall be euerlasting vnto them throughout their generations.
and, whanne thei ben `waischid in water, thou schalt clothe hem with hooli clothis, that thei mynystre to me, and that the anoyntyng of hem profite in to euerlastynge preesthod.
16 So Moses did according to all that ye Lord had commanded him: so did he.
And Moises dide alle thingis whiche the Lord comaundide.
17 Thus was the Tabernacle reared vp the first day of the first moneth in the seconde yeere.
Therfor in the firste monethe of the secunde yeer, in the firste dai of the monethe, the tabernacle was set.
18 Then Moses reared vp the Tabernacle and fastened his sockets, and set vp the boardes thereof, and put in the barres of it, and reared vp his pillars.
And Moises reiside it, and settide the tablis, and foundementis, and barris, and he ordeynede pilers;
19 And he spred the couering ouer the Tabernacle, and put the couering of that couering on hie aboue it, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
and `spredde abrood the roof on the tabernacle, and puttide an hilyng aboue, as the Lord comaundide.
20 And he tooke and put the Testimonie in the Arke, and put the barres in the ringes of the Arke, and set the Merciseate on hie vpon the Arke.
He puttide also the witnessyng in the arke, and he settide barris with ynne, and Goddis answeryng place aboue.
21 He brought also the Arke into the Tabernacle, and hanged vp the couering vaile, and couered the Arke of the Testimonie, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
And whanne he hadde brouyt the arke in to the tabernacle, he hangide a veil bifor it, that he schulde fille the comaundement of the Lord.
22 Furthermore he put the Table in the Tabernacle of the Congregation in the Northside of the Tabernacle, without the vaile,
He settide also the boord in the tabernacle of witnessyng, at the north coost, without the veil,
23 And set the bread in order before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
and he ordeynede the looues of settyng forth bifore, as the Lord comaundide to Moises.
24 Also he put the Candlesticke in the Tabernacle of the Congregation, ouer against the Table toward ye Southside of the Tabernacle.
He settide also the candilstike in the tabernacle of witnessyng, euene ayens the boord,
25 And he lighted the lampes before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
in the south side, and settide lanternes bi ordre, bi the comaundement of the Lord.
26 Moreouer he set the golden Altar in the Tabernacle of the Congregation before the vayle,
He puttide also the goldun auter vndur the roof of witnessyng,
27 And burnt sweete incense thereon, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
ayens the veil, and he brente theronne encense of swete smellynge spiceries, as the Lord comaundide to Moises.
28 Also he hanged vp the vayle at the doore of the Tabernacle.
He settide also a tente in the entryng of the tabernacle,
29 After, he set the burnt offring Altar without the doore of the Tabernacle, called the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and offered the burnt offering and the sacrifice thereon, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
and the auter of brent sacrifice in the porche of the witnessyng, and he offride therynne brent sacrifice, and sacrifices, as the Lord comaundide.
30 Likewise he set the Lauer betweene the Tabernacle of the Congregation and the Altar, and powred water therein to wash with.
Also he ordeynede the `waischyng vessel, bitwixe the tabernacle of witnessyng and the auter, and fillide it with watir.
31 So Moses and Aaron, and his sonnes washed their handes and their feete thereat.
And Moises, and Aaron, and his sones, waischiden her hondis and feet,
32 When they went into the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and when they approched to the Altar, they washed, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
whanne thei entriden into the roof of boond of pees, and neiyeden to the auter, as the Lord comaundide to Moises.
33 Finally, he reared vp the court rounde about the Tabernacle and the Altar, and hanged vp the vaile at the court gate: so Moses finished the worke.
He reiside also the greet street, bi the cumpas of the tabernacle and of the auter, and settyde a tente in the entryng therof. Aftir that alle thingis weren perfitli maad,
34 Then the cloud couered the Tabernacle of the Congregation, and the glorie of the Lord filled the Tabernacle.
a cloude hilide the tabernacle of witnessyng, and the glorie of the Lord fillide it;
35 So Moses could not enter into the Tabernacle of the Congregation, because the cloude abode thereon, and the glorie of the Lord filled the Tabernacle.
nether Moyses myyte entre in to the tabernacle of the boond of pees, while the cloude hilide alle thingis, and the maieste of the Lord schynede, for the cloude hilide alle thingis.
36 Nowe when the cloude ascended vp from the Tabernacle, the children of Israel went forward in all their iourneyes.
If ony tyme the cloude lefte the tabernacle, the sones of Israel yeden forth bi her cumpanyes;
37 But if the cloude ascended not, then they iourneyed not till the day that it ascended.
if the cloude hangide aboue, thei dwelliden in the same place;
38 For the cloude of the Lord was vpon the Tabernacle by day, and fire was in it by night in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their iourneyes.
for the cloude of the Lord restide on the tabernacle bi dai, and fier in the nyyt, in the siyt of the puplis of Israel, bi alle her dwellyngis.
