Leviticus 2:13  Leviticus 3:17

13 And every offering of your meal offering you shall season with salt, and you shall not omit the salt of the covenant of your God from your meal offering; with all your offerings you shall present salt.

14 And if you present a meal offering of firstfruits to Jehovah, you shall present for the meal offering of your firstfruits new grain roasted with fire, crushed grain of the fresh ear.

15 And you shall put oil on it and place frankincense on it; it is a meal offering.

16 And the priest shall burn as its memorial portion, some of its crushed grain and some of its oil, with all its frankincense, as an offering by fire to Jehovah.

 

CHAPTER 3

1 And if his offering is a sacrifice of peace offerings, if he presents it from the herd, whether male or female, he shall present it without blemish before Jehovah.

2 And he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering and slaughter it at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting, and Aaron’s sons the priests shall sprinkle the blood on and around the altar.

3 And he shall present from the sacrifice of peace offerings an offering by fire to Jehovah. The fat that covers the inward parts and all the fat that is on the inward parts,

4 And the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, which is on the loins, and the appendage on the liver with the kidneys, he shall remove.

5 And Aaron’s sons shall burn it on the altar upon the burnt offering, which is on the wood that is on the fire; it is an offering by fire, a satisfying fragrance to Jehovah.

6 And if his offering for a sacrifice of peace offerings to Jehovah is from the flock, he shall present it, male or female, without blemish.

7 If he presents a lamb for his offering, then he shall present it before Jehovah.

8 And he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering and slaughter it before the Tent of Meeting, and Aaron’s sons shall sprinkle its blood on and around the altar.

9 And he shall present from the sacrifice of peace offerings an offering by fire to Jehovah. Its fat, the entire fat tail which he shall remove close to the backbone, and the fat that covers the inward parts and all the fat that is on the inward parts,

10 And the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, which is on the loins, and the appendage on the liver with the kidneys, he shall remove.

11 And the priest shall burn it on the altar; it is the food of the offering by fire to Jehovah.

12 And if his offering is a goat, then he shall present it before Jehovah.

13 And he shall lay his hand on its head and slaughter it before the Tent of Meeting, and Aaron’s sons shall sprinkle its blood on and around the altar.

14 And he shall present from it his offering, as an offering by fire to Jehovah. The fat that covers the inward parts and all the fat that is on the inward parts,

15 And the two kidneys and the fat that is on them, which is on the loins, and the appendage on the liver with the kidneys, he shall remove.

16 And the priest shall burn them on the altar; it is the food of the offering by fire for a satisfying fragrance; all the fat is Jehovah’s.

17 It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwelling places that you shall not eat any fat or any blood.

Leviticus 1:11  Leviticus 2:12

11 And he shall slaughter it on the side of the altar northward before Jehovah, and Aaron’s sons the priests shall sprinkle its blood on and around the altar.

12 And he shall cut it into its pieces with its head and its fat, and the priest shall arrange them in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar;

13 But the inward parts and the legs he shall wash with water. Then the priest shall present the whole and burn it on the altar; it is a burnt offering, an offering by fire, a satisfying fragrance to Jehovah.

14 And if his offering to Jehovah is a burnt offering of birds, then he shall present his offering of turtledoves or of young pigeons.

15 And the priest shall present it at the altar and wring off its head and burn it on the altar; and its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar.

16 And he shall take away its crop with its feathers and cast it beside the altar toward the east, in the place of the ashes.

17 Then he shall tear it open by its wings without dividing it, and the priest shall burn it on the altar on the wood that is on the fire; it is a burnt offering, an offering by fire, a satisfying fragrance to Jehovah.

 

CHAPTER 2

1 And when anyone presents an offering of a meal offering to Jehovah, his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil on it and put frankincense on it.

2 Then he shall bring it to Aaron’s sons the priests, and he shall take from it his handful of its fine flour and of its oil with all its frankincense. And the priest shall burn it as its memorial portion on the altar, an offering by fire, a satisfying fragrance to Jehovah.

3 And what is left of the meal offering shall be Aaron’s and his sons’; it is a thing most holy of Jehovah’s offerings by fire.

4 And when you present an offering of a meal offering baked in the oven, it shall be of fine flour, unleavened cakes mingled with oil or unleavened wafers anointed with oil.

5 And if your offering is a meal offering baked on a flat plate, it shall be of fine flour mingled with oil, unleavened.

6 You shall break it in pieces and pour oil on it; it is a meal offering.

7 And if your offering is a meal offering made in a pot, it shall be made of fine flour with oil.

8 And you shall bring to Jehovah the meal offering that is made of these things and present it to the priest, and he shall bring it to the altar.

9 And the priest shall take up from the meal offering its memorial portion and shall burn it on the altar, an offering by fire, a satisfying fragrance to Jehovah.

10 And that which is left of the meal offering shall be Aaron’s and his sons’; it is a thing most holy of Jehovah’s offerings by fire.

11 No meal offering that you present to Jehovah shall be made with leaven, for you shall not burn any leaven or any honey as an offering by fire to Jehovah.

12 You may present them to Jehovah, as an offering of firstfruits, but they shall not be offered up for a satisfying fragrance on the altar.

Exodus 40:27  Leviticus 1:10

27 And he burnt fragrant incense on it, as Jehovah commanded Moses.

28 Then he set up the screen of the entrance to the tabernacle.

29 He also set the altar of burnt offering at the entrance of the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting and offered upon it the burnt offering and the meal offering, as Jehovah commanded Moses.

30 And he set the laver between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and put water there for washing.

31 And Moses and Aaron and his sons would wash their hands and their feet with water from it;

32 Whenever they went into the Tent of Meeting and whenever they came near the altar, they washed; as Jehovah commanded Moses.

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

34 Then the cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle.

35 And Moses was not able to enter the Tent of Meeting, because the cloud settled on it, and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle.

36 And whenever the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel set out on all their journeys;

37 But if the cloud was not taken up, then they did not set out until the day that it was taken up.

38 For the cloud of Jehovah was upon the tabernacle by day, and there was fire in it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel on all their journeys.

 

CHAPTER 1

1 Then Jehovah called to Moses and spoke to him out of the Tent of Meeting, saying,

2 Speak to the children of Israel and say to them, When any one of you presents an offering to Jehovah, you shall present your offering from the cattle, of the herd or of the flock.

3 If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall present it, a male without blemish; he shall present it at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting, that he may be accepted before Jehovah.

4 And he shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it shall be accepted for him, to make expiation for him.

5 And he shall slaughter the young bull before Jehovah; and Aaron’s sons the priests shall present the blood and sprinkle the blood on and around the altar that is at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting.

6 And he shall skin the burnt offering and cut it into its pieces.

7 And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar and arrange the wood in order on the fire.

8 Then Aaron’s sons the priests shall arrange the pieces, the head, and the fat in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar;

9 But its inward parts and its legs he shall wash with water. Then the priest shall burn the whole on the altar, as a burnt offering, an offering by fire, a satisfying fragrance to Jehovah.

10 And if his offering is from the flock, of the sheep or of the goats, for a burnt offering, he shall present it, a male without blemish.

Exodus 40:1  Exodus 40:26

1 Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

2 On the first day of the first month you shall raise up the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting.

3 And you shall put the Ark of the Testimony there, and you shall screen the Ark with the veil.

4 And you shall bring in the table and arrange its setting, and you shall bring in the lampstand and set up its lamps.

5 And you shall put the golden altar for incense before the Ark of the Testimony and set up the screen of the entrance to the tabernacle.

6 And you shall put the altar of burnt offering before the entrance of the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting.

7 And you shall put the laver between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and put water there.

8 And you shall set up the court all around and put up the screen of the gate of the court.

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

10 And you shall anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils, and sanctify the altar; and the altar shall be most holy.

11 And you shall anoint the laver and its base, and sanctify it.

12 And you shall bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the Tent of Meeting, and wash them with water.

13 And you shall put the holy garments upon Aaron, and you shall anoint him and sanctify him that he may serve Me as a priest.

14 You shall also bring his sons and put tunics upon them,

15 And you shall anoint them as you have anointed their father that they may serve Me as priests; and their anointing shall be to them for an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.

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

17 And in the first month in the second year, on the first day of the month, the tabernacle was raised up.

18 And Moses raised up the tabernacle and put down its sockets and set up its boards and put in its bars and raised up its pillars.

19 And he spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent over it from above, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

20 Then he took the testimony and put it into the Ark, and he set the poles onto the Ark and put the expiation cover upon the Ark above it.

21 And he brought the Ark into the tabernacle and set up the veil for the screen and screened the Ark of the Testimony, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

22 Then he put the table in the Tent of Meeting on the north side of the tabernacle outside the veil.

23 And he arranged the bread in order upon it before Jehovah, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

24 Then he put the lampstand in the Tent of Meeting opposite the table, on the south side of the tabernacle.

25 And he set up the lamps before Jehovah, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

26 Then he put the golden altar in the Tent of Meeting before the veil,

Exodus 39:21  Exodus 39:43

21 And they bound the breastplate by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a cord of blue strands, that it might be upon the skillfully woven band of the ephod, and that the breastplate might not come loose from the ephod, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

22 And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all of blue strands,

23 And the opening of the robe in its center like the opening of a coat of mail, with a binding edge around its opening so that it would not be torn.

24 And they made on the hem of the robe pomegranates of blue and purple and scarlet strands, and twined linen.

25 And they made bells of pure gold and put the bells between the pomegranates on the hem of the robe all around, between the pomegranates;

26 A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, on the hem of the robe all around to minister in; as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

27 And they made the tunics of fine linen of woven work for Aaron and for his sons,

28 And the turban of fine linen, and the headdresses of high hats of fine linen, and the linen trousers of fine twined linen,

29 And the girding sash of fine twined linen, and blue and purple and scarlet strands, the work of an embroiderer, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

30 And they made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold and wrote an inscription upon it, like the engravings of a signet: HOLY TO JEHOVAH.

31 And they tied to it a cord of blue strands to fasten it on the turban above, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

32 Thus all the work of the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting was finished, and the children of Israel did according to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses; so they did.

33 And they brought the tabernacle to Moses, the tent and all its furnishings, its clasps, its boards, its bars, and its pillars, and its sockets;

34 And the covering of rams’ skins dyed red, and the covering of porpoise skins, and the veil of the screen;

35 The Ark of the Testimony and its poles and the expiation cover;

36 The table, all its utensils, and the bread of the Presence;

37 The pure lampstand, its lamps, even the lamps set in order, and all its utensils, and the oil for the light;

38 And the golden altar and the anointing oil and the fragrant incense and the screen for the entrance of the tent;

39 The bronze altar, and its grating of bronze, its poles, and all its utensils; the laver and its base;

40 The hangings of the court, its pillars, and its sockets; and the screen for the gate of the court, its cords, and its pegs; and all the utensils for the service of the tabernacle, for the Tent of Meeting;

41 The finely worked garments for ministering in the sanctuary, the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons for them to serve as priests.

42 According to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did all the work.

43 And Moses saw all the work; and there it was, they had done it; just as Jehovah had commanded, so they had done; and Moses blessed them.
