1Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying:

1The LORD spoke to Moses:

2“On the first day of the first month you shall set up the tabernacle of the tent of meeting.

2"On the first day of the first month you are to set up the tent of the Tent of Meeting.

3You shall put in it the ark of the Testimony, and partition off the ark with the veil.

4You shall bring in the table and arrange the things that are to be set in order on it; and you shall bring in the lampstand and light its lamps.

4You are to bring in the table and properly arrange what goes on it. Then you are to bring in the lamp stand and set up its lamps.

5You shall also set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the Testimony, and put up the screen for the door of the tabernacle.

9“And you shall take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle and all that is in it; and you shall hallow it and all its utensils, and it shall be holy.

9You are to take the anointing oil and anoint the tent and all that is in it. You are to consecrate it and all its furnishings and it will be holy.

12“Then you shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the tabernacle of meeting and wash them with water.

13You shall put the holy garments on Aaron, and anoint him and consecrate him, that he may minister to Me as priest.

13You are to clothe Aaron with the holy garments, you are to anoint him, and consecrate him so he may serve me as priest.

14And you shall bring his sons and clothe them with tunics.

14You are to bring his sons and clothe them with tunics.

15You shall anoint them, as you anointed their father, that they may minister to Me as priests; for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.”

15You are to anoint them just as you anointed their father so they may serve me as priests. Their anointing is to qualify them to belong to a perpetual priesthood from generation to generation."

16Thus Moses did; according to all that the LORD had commanded him, so he did.

16Moses did everything that the LORD had commanded him, so he did.

17And it came to pass in the first month of the second year, on the first day of the month, that the tabernacle was raised up.

17And so in the first month of the second year, on the first day of the month, the tent was set up.

18So Moses raised up the tabernacle, fastened its sockets, set up its boards, put in its bars, and raised up its pillars.

18Moses set up the tent. He installed its sockets and set its boards in place. He inserted its bars and set up its pillars.

19And he spread out the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent on top of it, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

19He spread the tent over the tent and put the covering of the tent on top of it, just as the LORD had commanded him.

20He took the Testimony and put it into the ark, inserted the poles through the rings of the ark, and put the mercy seat on top of the ark.

20Then he took the Testimony, put it into the ark, and placed the poles on the ark. He then put the Mercy Seat on top of the ark.

21And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, hung up the veil of the covering, and partitioned off the ark of the Testimony, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

21He brought the ark into the tent, set up the curtain, and screened off the Ark of the Testimony, just as the LORD had commanded him.

22He put the table in the tabernacle of meeting, on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil;

22He put the table in the Tent of Meeting, on the north side of the tent, outside the curtain,

23and he set the bread in order upon it before the LORD, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

23and properly arranged the bread on it in the LORD's presence, just as the LORD had commanded him.

24He put the lampstand in the tabernacle of meeting, across from the table, on the south side of the tabernacle;

24Then he put the lamp stand in the Tent of Meeting, opposite the table on the south side of the tent,

25and he lit the lamps before the LORD, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

25and set up the lamps in the LORD's presence, just as the LORD had commanded him.

26He put the gold altar in the tabernacle of meeting in front of the veil;

26He put the golden altar in the Tent of Meeting in front of the curtain

27and he burned sweet incense on it, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

27and burned aromatic incense on it, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

28He hung up the screen at the door of the tabernacle.

28He set up the screen for the doorway of the tent.

29And he put the altar of burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and offered upon it the burnt offering and the grain offering, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

29He put the altar for burnt offerings at the doorway of the tent of the Tent of Meeting, and offered the burnt offering and the grain offering on it, just as the LORD had commanded him.

30He set the laver between the tabernacle of meeting and the altar, and put water there for washing;

30He put the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and put water in it for washing.

31and Moses, Aaron, and his sons would wash their hands and their feet with water from it.

31Moses, Aaron, and his sons washed their hands and feet from it.

32Whenever they went into the tabernacle of meeting, and when they came near the altar, they washed, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

32When they entered the Tent of Meeting and approached the altar, they washed, just as the LORD had commanded him.

33And he raised up the court all around the tabernacle and the altar, and hung up the screen of the court gate. So Moses finished the work.

33He set up the court all around the tent and the altar, and hung up the screen for the gate of the court. And so Moses finished the work.

34Then the cloud covered the tabernacle of meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.

34The cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tent.

35And Moses was not able to enter the tabernacle of meeting, because the cloud rested above it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.

35Moses was not able to enter the Tent of Meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tent.

36Whenever the cloud was taken up from above the tabernacle, the children of Israel would go onward in all their journeys.

36Whenever the cloud was lifted up from the tent, the Israelis would set out on their journey,

37But if the cloud was not taken up, then they did not journey till the day that it was taken up.

37but if the cloud was not lifted up, they would not set out until it was lifted up,

38For the cloud of the LORD was above the tabernacle by day, and fire was over it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.

38since the cloud of the LORD was over the tent by day, and the fire was in it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel in all their journeys.
