1 And he spoke Yahweh to Moses saying.
Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying—
2 On [the] day of the month first on [day] one of the month you will set up [the] tabernacle of [the] tent of meeting.
On the first day of the month, in the first month, shalt thou rear the habitation, of the tent of meeting;
3 And you will put there [the] ark of the testimony and you will cover over the ark the curtain.
and thou shalt put therein, the ark of the testimony, —and shalt screen the ark with the veil;
4 And you will bring the table and you will arrange arrangement its and you will bring the lampstand and you will lift up lamps its.
and thou shalt bring in the table, and set in order what is to be arranged thereupon, —and thou shalt bring in the lampstand, and mount the lamps thereof;
5 And you will put [the] altar of gold for incense before [the] ark of the testimony and you will put [the] screen of the entrance of the tabernacle.
and thou shalt place the altar of gold for incense, before the ark of the testimony, —and put up the screen for the opening of the habitation;
6 And you will put [the] altar of the burnt offering before [the] entrance of [the] tabernacle of [the] tent of meeting.
and thou shalt place the altar for the ascending-sacrifice, —before the opening of the habitation of the tent of meeting;
7 And you will put the laver between [the] tent of meeting and between the altar and you will put there water.
and thou shalt place the laver between the tent of meeting, and the altar, and shalt put therein water,
8 And you will put the courtyard all around and you will put [the] screen of [the] gate of the courtyard.
And thou shalt put up the court round about, and hang up the screen of the gate of the court.
9 And you will take [the] oil of anointing and you will anoint the tabernacle and all that [is] in it and you will consecrate it and all articles its and it will be a holy thing.
And thou shalt take the oil of anointing, and anoint the habitation and all that is therein, —and shalt hallow it. and all the furniture thereof so shall it be holy.
10 And you will anoint [the] altar of the burnt offering and all articles its and you will consecrate the altar and it will be the altar holiness of holiness.
And thou shalt anoint the altar of ascending sacrifice, and all its utensils, —and hallow the altar, so shall the altar be most holy:
11 And you will anoint the laver and base its and you will consecrate it.
and thou shalt anoint the laver and its stand, —and shalt hallow it.
12 And you will bring near Aaron and sons his to [the] entrance of [the] tent of meeting and you will wash them with water.
And thou shalt bring near Aaron and his sons, unto the opening of the tent of meeting, —and shalt bathe them in the water;
13 And you will clothe Aaron [the] garments of holiness and you will anoint him and you will consecrate him and he will serve as a priest me.
and thou shalt clothe Aaron with the holy garments, —and shalt anoint him and hallow him so shall he minister as priest unto me.
14 And sons his you will bring near and you will clothe them tunics.
His sons also, shalt thou bring near, —and shalt clothe them with tunics;
15 And you will anoint them just as you anointed father their and they will serve as priests me and it will become to be for them anointing their a priesthood of perpetuity to generations their.
and shalt anoint them as thou didst anoint their father, and they shall minister as priests unto me, —so shall their anointing remain to them for an age-abiding priesthood, to their generations.
16 And he did Moses according to all that he had commanded Yahweh him so he did.
And Moses did, —according to all that Yahweh had commanded him, so did he.
17 And it was in the month first in the year second on [day] one of the month it was set up the tabernacle.
Thus came it to pass, in the first month, in the second year, on the first of the month, that the habitation was reared.
18 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.
Yea Moses reared the habitation, and placed its sockets, and fixed its boards, and fastened its bars, —and reared its pillars.
19 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.
Then spread he abroad the tent upon the habitation, and put the covering of the tent upon it, above, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
20 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.
And he took and placed the testimony within the ark, and put the staves upon the ark, —and placed the propitiatory upon the ark, above;
21 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.
and brought in the ark into the habitation, and put up the screening veil, and screened over the ark of the testimony, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
22 And he put the table in [the] tent of meeting on [the] side of the tabernacle north-ward from [the] outside of the curtain.
And he placed the table in the tent of meeting, —on the side of the habitation northward, —outside the veil;
23 And he arranged on it an arrangement of bread before Yahweh just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.
and set in order thereupon the arrangement of bread before Yahweh, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
24 And he put the lampstand in [the] tent of meeting opposite to the table on [the] side of the tabernacle south-ward.
And he put the lampstand, in the tent of meeting, over against the table, —on the side of the habitation southward;
25 And he lifted up the lamps before Yahweh just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.
and mounted the lamps before Yahweh, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
26 And he put [the] altar of gold in [the] tent of meeting before the curtain.
And he put the altar of gold in the tent of meeting, —before the veil;
27 And he made smoke on it incense of perfume just as he had commanded Yahweh Moses.
and burned thereupon the fragrant incense, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
28 And he set up [the] screen of the entrance of the tabernacle.
And he put up the screen of the entrance pertaining to the habitation;
29 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.
and, the altar of ascending-sacrifice, put he at the entrance of the habitation of the tent of meeting, —and he caused to ascend thereupon the ascending-sacrifice, and the meal-offering, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
30 And he put the laver between [the] tent of meeting and between the altar and he put there water for washing.
And he put the laver, between the tent of meeting, and the altar, —and put therein water for bathing;
31 And they washed from it Moses and Aaron and sons his hands their and feet their.
and Moses and Aaron and his sons thenceforth bathed thereat, —their hands and their feet;
32 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.
when they were entering into the tent of meeting, and when they were drawing near unto the altar, then used they to bathe, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
33 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.
And he reared the court round about to the habitation and to the altar, and put up the screen of the gate of the court, —and Moses finished the work.
34 And it covered the cloud [the] tent of meeting and [the] glory of Yahweh it filled the tabernacle.
Then did the cloud cover the tent of meeting, —and, the glory of Yahweh, filled the habitation;
35 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.
and Moses was not able to enter into the tent of meeting, because the cloud had made its habitation thereupon, —and the glory of Yahweh, filled the habitation.
36 And when was taken up the cloud from over the tabernacle they set out [the] people of Israel in all journeyings their.
And whensoever the cloud ascended from off the habitation, then did the sons of Israel set forward, in all their journeyings;
37 And if not it was taken up the cloud and not they set out until [the] day was taken up it.
but if the cloud did not ascend, then did they not set forward—until the day when it did ascend.
38 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.
For, the cloud of Yahweh, was upon the habitation by day, and, a fire, came to be by night therein, —in the sight of all the house of Israel in all their journeyings.
