Exodus 40
1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,
Then spake Yahweh unto Moses, saying—
2 'On the first day of the month, in the first month, thou dost raise 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 hast set there the ark of the testimony, and hast covered over the ark with the vail,
and thou shalt put therein, the ark of the testimony, —and shalt screen the ark with the veil;
4 and hast brought in the table, and set its arrangement in order, and hast brought in the candlestick, and caused its lamps to go up.
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 thou hast put the golden altar for perfume before the ark of the testimony, and hast put the covering of the opening to 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 hast put the altar of the burnt-offering before the opening 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 hast put the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and hast put water there.
and thou shalt place the laver between the tent of meeting, and the altar, and shalt put therein water,
8 'And thou hast set the court round about, and hast placed the covering of the gate of the court,
And thou shalt put up the court round about, and hang up the screen of the gate of the court.
9 and hast taken the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle, and all that [is] in it, and hallowed it, and all its vessels, and it hath been holy;
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 thou hast anointed the altar of the burnt-offering, and all its vessels, and sanctified the altar, and the altar hath been most holy;
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 thou hast anointed the laver and its base, and sanctified it.
and thou shalt anoint the laver and its stand, —and shalt hallow it.
12 'And thou hast brought near Aaron and his sons unto the opening of the tent of meeting, and hast bathed 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 thou hast clothed Aaron with the holy garments, and anointed him, and sanctified him, and he hath acted as priest to 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 his sons thou dost bring near, and hast clothed them with coats,
His sons also, shalt thou bring near, —and shalt clothe them with tunics;
15 and anointed them as thou hast anointed their father, and they have acted as priests to Me, and their anointing hath been to be to them for a priesthood age-during, to their generations.'
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 Moses doth according to all that Jehovah hath commanded him; so he hath done.
And Moses did, —according to all that Yahweh had commanded him, so did he.
17 And it cometh to pass, in the first month, in the second year, in the first of the month, the tabernacle hath been raised up;
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 Moses raiseth up the tabernacle, and setteth its sockets, and placeth its boards, and placeth its bars, and raiseth its pillars,
Yea Moses reared the habitation, and placed its sockets, and fixed its boards, and fastened its bars, —and reared its pillars.
19 and spreadeth the tent over the tabernacle, and putteth the covering of the tent upon it above, as Jehovah hath commanded 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 taketh and putteth the testimony unto the ark, and setteth the staves on the ark, and putteth the mercy-seat on the ark 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 bringeth in the ark unto the tabernacle, and placeth the vail of the covering, and covereth over the ark of the testimony, as Jehovah hath commanded 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 putteth the table in the tent of meeting, on the side of the tabernacle northward, at the outside of the vail,
And he placed the table in the tent of meeting, —on the side of the habitation northward, —outside the veil;
23 and setteth in order upon it the arrangement of bread, before Jehovah, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
and set in order thereupon the arrangement of bread before Yahweh, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
24 And he putteth the candlestick in the tent of meeting, over-against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward,
And he put the lampstand, in the tent of meeting, over against the table, —on the side of the habitation southward;
25 and causeth the lamps to go up before Jehovah, as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
and mounted the lamps before Yahweh, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
26 And he setteth the golden altar in the tent of meeting, before the vail,
And he put the altar of gold in the tent of meeting, —before the veil;
27 and maketh perfume on it — spice-perfume — as Jehovah hath commanded Moses.
and burned thereupon the fragrant incense, —As Yahweh commanded Moses.
28 And he setteth the covering of the opening to the tabernacle,
And he put up the screen of the entrance pertaining to the habitation;
29 and the altar of the burnt-offering he hath set at the opening of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and causeth the burnt-offering to go up upon it, and the present, as Jehovah hath commanded 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 putteth the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and putteth water there for washing,
And he put the laver, between the tent of meeting, and the altar, —and put therein water for bathing;
31 and Moses and Aaron and his sons have washed their hands and their feet at the same;
and Moses and Aaron and his sons thenceforth bathed thereat, —their hands and their feet;
32 in their going in unto the tent of meeting, and in their drawing near unto the altar, they wash, as Jehovah hath commanded 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 raiseth up the court round about the tabernacle, and about the altar, and placeth the covering of the gate of the court; and Moses completeth 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 the cloud covereth the tent of meeting, and the honour of Jehovah hath filled the tabernacle;
Then did the cloud cover the tent of meeting, —and, the glory of Yahweh, filled the habitation;
35 and Moses hath not been able to go in unto the tent of meeting, for the cloud hath tabernacled on it, and the honour of Jehovah hath 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 in the going up of the cloud from off the tabernacle the sons of Israel journey in all their journeys;
And whensoever the cloud ascended from off the habitation, then did the sons of Israel set forward, in all their journeyings;
37 and if the cloud go not up then they journey not, until the day of its going up:
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 Jehovah [is] on the tabernacle by day, and fire is in it by night, before the eyes of all the house of Israel in all their journeys.
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.
