Exodus 40:1-33

[1] And the LORD  spake  unto Moses,  saying,  [2] On the first  day  of the first  month  shalt thou set up  the tabernacle  of the tent  of the congregation.  [3] And thou shalt put  therein  the ark  of the testimony,  and cover  the ark  with the vail.  [4] And thou shalt bring  in the table,  and set in order  the things that are to be set in order  upon it; and thou shalt bring  in the candlestick,  and light  the lamps  [5] And thou shalt set  the altar  of gold  for the incense  before  the ark  of the testimony,  and put  the hanging  of the door  to the tabernacle.  [6] And thou shalt set  the altar  of the burnt offering  before  the door  of the tabernacle  of the tent  of the congregation.  [7] And thou shalt set  the laver  between the tent  of the congregation  and the altar,  and shalt put  water  [8] And thou shalt set up  the court  round about,  and hang up  the hanging  at the court  gate.  [9] And thou shalt take  the anointing  oil,  and anoint  the tabernacle,  and all that is therein, and shalt hallow  it, and all the vessels  thereof: and it shall be holy.  [10] And thou shalt anoint  the altar  of the burnt offering,  and all his vessels,  and sanctify  the altar:  most  [11] And thou shalt anoint  the laver  and his foot,  and sanctify  [12] And thou shalt bring  Aaron  and his sons  unto the door  of the tabernacle  of the congregation,  and wash  them with water.  [13] And thou shalt put  upon Aaron  the holy  garments,  and anoint  him, and sanctify  him; that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.  [14] And thou shalt bring  his sons,  and clothe  them with coats:  [15] And thou shalt anoint  their father,  that they may minister unto me in the priest's office:  for their anointing  shall surely be an everlasting  priesthood  throughout their generations.  [16] Thus did  Moses:  according to all that the LORD  commanded  him, so did  he. [17] And it came to pass in the first  month  in the second  year,  on the first  day of the month,  that the tabernacle  was reared up.  [18] And Moses  reared up  the tabernacle,  and fastened  his sockets,  and set up  the boards  thereof, and put  in the bars  thereof, and reared up  his pillars.  [19] And he spread abroad  the tent  over the tabernacle,  and put  the covering  of the tent  above  upon it; as the LORD  commanded  Moses.  [20] And he took  and put  the testimony  into the ark,  and set  the staves  on the ark,  and put  the mercy seat  above  upon the ark:  [21] And he brought  the ark  into the tabernacle,  and set up  the vail  of the covering,  and covered  the ark  of the testimony;  as the LORD  commanded  Moses.  [22] And he put  the table  in the tent  of the congregation,  upon the side  of the tabernacle  northward,  without  the vail.  [23] And he set  the bread  in order  upon it before  the LORD;  had commanded  Moses.  [24] And he put  the candlestick  in the tent  of the congregation,  over against  the table,  on the side  of the tabernacle  southward.  [25] And he lighted  the lamps  before  the LORD;  commanded  Moses.  [26] And he put  the golden  altar  in the tent  of the congregation  before  the vail:  [27] And he burnt  sweet  incense  thereon; as the LORD  commanded  Moses.  [28] And he set up  the hanging  at the door  of the tabernacle.  [29] And he put  the altar  of burnt offering  by the door  of the tabernacle  of the tent  of the congregation,  and offered  upon it the burnt offering  and the meat offering;  as the LORD  commanded  Moses.  [30] And he set  the laver  between the tent  of the congregation  and the altar,  and put  water  there, to wash  [31] And Moses  and Aaron  and his sons  washed  their hands  and their feet  [32] When they went  into the tent  of the congregation,  and when they came near  unto the altar,  they washed;  as the LORD  commanded  Moses.  [33] And he reared up  the court  round about  the tabernacle  and the altar,  and set up  the hanging  of the court  gate.  So Moses  finished  the work.
