“On the first day of the first month next year, [tell the people to] set up the Sacred Tent.
3 Apoho ao i vatam-pañinay vaho ampiavaho amy lamba fañefetsey i vatay.
Put inside it the sacred chest [that contains the stone slabs on which are engraved] the Ten Commandments, and hang the curtain in front of it.

Bring the table into the Sacred Tent, and place on it all the things that are to be used with it. Bring in the lampstand and fasten the lamps to it.

Put the altar for burning sacrifices in front of the Sacred Tent.
7 Le apoho añivo’ i kibohom-pamantañañey naho i kitreliy i fanasàñey vaho ampidoaño rano;
Put the washbasin between the Sacred Tent and the altar, and fill it with water.
8 hajario ty añ’ariari’ i kiririsay vaho aradoradò amy lalan-kiririsay i lamba fañefe’ey.
Hang the curtains that will surround the courtyard, and hang the curtain at its entrance.
9 Rambeso amy zao i mena-pañorizañey naho hene orizo i kivohoy naho ze ama’e ao vaho tokano rekets’ o fana’e iabio hiavake;
Then take the oil for anointing, and anoint the Sacred Tent and everything that is in it, to (set it apart/dedicate it) to me. Then it will be holy/sacred.
10 le orizo i kitrely fisoroñañey naho ze hene harao’e vaho tokano i kitreliy, hiavahe’ i kitreliy do’e.
Also anoint the altar for offering sacrifices that will be completely burned, and all the things that will be used with it, and set it apart. Then it also will be holy/sacred.
11 Le orizo ka i fanasàñey naho o tombo’eo vaho ampiavaho.
Also anoint the washbasin and its base, to set it apart.
12 Endeso mb’amy lalan-kibohom-pamantañañey mb’eo t’i Aharone naho o anadahi’eo vaho ampandrò an-drano;
Then bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the Sacred Tent, and wash them [ritually] with water.
13 le aombeo amy Aharone o saro miavakeo naho orizo vaho ampiavaho hitoroñ’ ahy ho mpisoroñe.
Then put on Aaron his sacred clothes to (set him apart/dedicate him), in order that he can serve me as a priest.

15 Orizo manahake i nañoriza’o an-drae’ iareoy hitoroñ’ ahy ho mpisoroñe; fa ho fisoroñañe tsy modo amo fifokoa’ iareo mifandimbeo ty fañorizañe iareo.
and anoint them just as you anointed their father, in order that they also may serve me by working as priests. By anointing them [and their descendants], you will cause them and their descendants to be priests throughout all coming generations.”
16 Nanoe’ i Mosè irezay hambañe amy nandilia’ Iehovà azey.
Moses/I did all these things exactly as Yahweh had commanded him/me.
17 Aa le natroatse ami’ty andro valoha’ i volam-baloha’ i taoñe faha-roey i kivohoy.
On the first day of the first month of the next year (OR, second year [after they/we left Egypt]), the people set up the Sacred Tent.
18 Natroa’ i Mosè i kivohoy naho najado’e an-toe’e o tombo’eo, hinalanka’e o varambañeo, nazili’e o saka’eo vaho natroa’e o anakòre’eo.
Following Moses’/my instructions, they set up the Sacred Tent and its bases, set up the frames, attached the crossbars, and put up the posts [for the curtains].
19 Le vinela’e ambone’ i kivohoy i kibohotsey naho nalafi’e ambone’ izay i rakokey, amy nandilia’ Iehovà amy Mosèy.
Then they spread out the coverings over the Sacred Tent, exactly as Yahweh had commanded.
20 Rinambe’e i fañinay le najo’e amy vatay, le nazili’e amo ravake amy vataio i baoñe rey vaho napo’e ambone’ i vatay i toem-pijebañañey;
Then he/I took the two stone slabs [on which the commandments were written] and put them in the sacred chest. He/I put the carrying poles [in the rings] on the chest and put the lid on top of the chest.
21 le nendese’e amy kivohoy i vatay, nahanto’e i lamba fañefetsey vaho nefera’e i vatam-pañinay amy nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosèy.
Then he/I took the chest into [the Very Holy Place inside] the Sacred Tent and hung the curtain. In that way, he/I prevented the people who were outside from seeing the chest. He/I did all this exactly as Yahweh had commanded him/me.
22 Napo’e amy kibohom-pamantañañeio i rairaiy, avara’ i kivohoy, alafe’ i lamba fañefetsey,
He/I set the table inside the Sacred Tent, on the north side, outside the curtain.
23 le hinajari’e hiriritse ama’e ty mofo añatrefa’ Iehovà, amy nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosèy.
He/I placed on the table the bread that was offered to Yahweh, exactly as Yahweh had commanded.
24 Napo’e amy kibohom-pamantañañeio i fitàn-jiroy, tandrife i rairaiy, añ’ila atimo’ i kivohoy,
He/I set the lampstand inside the Sacred Tent, on the south side, opposite the table.
25 le narehe’e i jiro rey añatrefa’ Iehovà ami’ty nandilia’ Iehovà i Mosè.
Then he/I fastened the lamps to the lampstand in Yahweh’s presence, exactly as Yahweh had commanded.
26 Napo’e aolo’ i lamba fañefetsey amy kibohom-pamantañañeio i kitrely volamenay
He/I set the golden altar for burning incense inside the Sacred Tent, in front of the curtain [that separated the Holy Place from the Very Holy Place],
27 le natsotse ama’e i emboke aman-kafiriañe mañitsey, amy nandilia’ Iehovà amy Mosèy.
and he/I burned some sweet-smelling incense on it, exactly as Yahweh had commanded him/me.
28 Natroa’e an-dalambei’ i kivohoy i lamba fañefetsey.
He/I hung the curtain at the entrance to the Sacred Tent.
29 Napo’e an-dalam-pimoahañe amy kivohoy—i kibohom-pamantañañey—i kitreli-pisoroñañey, le nañenga soroñe naho enga-mahakama ama’e, amy nandilia’ Iehovà amy Mosèy.
At the entrance to the Sacred Tent, he/I set the altar for offering sacrifices that were to be burned completely. Then he/I offered on it the meat that was to be burned completely and the grain offering, exactly as Yahweh had commanded him/me.
30 Napo’e añivo’ i kibohom-pamantañañey naho i kitreliy i fanasàñey vaho nañiliña’e rano fanasàñe;
He/I set the washbasin between the Sacred Tent and the [bronze] altar, and he/I filled the washbasin with water.
31 hanasa’ i Mosè naho i Aharone vaho o ana’eo fitàñe naho fandia;
Every time Moses/I and Aaron and his sons went into the Sacred Tent or went to the altar, they/we washed their/our hands and feet [ritually], exactly as Yahweh had commanded Moses/me.
32 hisasa’ iareo naho hizilike amy kibohom-pamantañañeio ndra hañarine i kitreliy, amy nandilia’ Iehovà amy Mosèy.
33 Vaho, natroa’e ty fahe’ i kiririsa añariari’ i kivohoy naho i kitreliy vaho naradorado’e i lamba fañefetse an-dalambein-kiririsaiy. Aa le nifonira’ i Mosè i fitoloñañey.
Following Moses’/my instructions, they hung the curtains that surrounded the courtyard and the altar, and they hung the curtain at the entrance to the courtyard. So Moses/I finished that work.
34 Nakopo’ i rahoñey amy zao i kibohom-pamantañañey vaho nandifotse i kivohoy ty enge’ Iehovà.
Then the [tall bright] cloud covered the Sacred Tent, and Yahweh’s (glory/brilliant light) filled the Sacred Tent.
35 Aa le tsy nimete nizilik’ amy kibohom-pamantañañeio t’i Mosè amy te nivotrak’ ama’e i rahoñey vaho nandifotse i kivohoy ty enge’ Iehovà.
Because that light was very bright, Moses/I was not able to enter the Sacred Tent.
36 Ndra mbia’mbia nionjoñe ambone’ i kivohoy i rahoñey, le nionjoñe mb’amo hene fañaveloa’ iareoo mb’eo o nte’ Israeleo.
From that day, whenever the Israeli people wanted to move to another place, they went only when the bright cloud rose from above the Sacred Tent.
37 Fa naho tsy nionjoñe i rahoñey le tsy nionjon-dia ka iereo ampara’ ty andro ionjona’e.
If the cloud did not rise, they stayed where they were and did not go on until the cloud rose.
38 Tambone’ i kivohoy ty raho’ Iehovà naho antoandro, le afo ty tama’e naho haleñe aolom-pihaino ze hene anjomba’ Israele amo fiavota’ iareo iabio.
Wherever they traveled, the bright cloud that [indicated] Yahweh’s [presence] was above the Sacred Tent during the day, and a [bright] fire was inside the cloud at night, with the result that all the Israeli people [MTY] could see it [at any time].
