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.

Exodus 39:1  Exodus 39:20

1 And from the blue and the purple and the scarlet strands, they made finely worked garments for ministering in the sanctuary, and made the holy garments for Aaron, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

2 And Bezalel made the ephod of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet strands, and fine twined linen.

3 And they beat the gold into thin sheets and cut them into threads, to work into the blue and into the purple and into the scarlet strands and into the fine linen, the work of a skillful workman.

4 They made shoulder pieces for it, joined to it; at the two edges it was joined.

5 And the skillfully woven band, which was on it for its fastening, was of one piece with it and like it in workmanship, of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet strands, and fine twined linen, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

6 And they made the onyx stones enclosed in settings of gold, engraved with the engravings of a signet according to the names of the sons of Israel.

7 And he put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod as stones of remembrance for the sons of Israel as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

8 And he made the breastplate, the work of a skillful workman, like the work of the ephod, of gold, of blue and purple and scarlet strands, and of fine twined linen.

9 It was square; they made the breastplate doubled; a span in its length and a span in its width when doubled.

10 And they filled it with four rows of stones. The first row was a row of a sardius, a topaz, and an emerald;

11 And the second row, a carbuncle, a sapphire, and a diamond;

12 And the third row, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;

13 And the fourth row, a chrysolite, an onyx, and a jasper. They were enclosed in settings of gold in their enclosures.

14 And the stones were according to the names of the sons of Israel, twelve, according to their names like the engravings of a signet, each according to his name, for the twelve tribes.

15 And they made on the breastplate twisted chains, a cordage work of pure gold.

16 And they made two settings of gold and two rings of gold, and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.

17 And they put the two cords of gold in the two rings at the ends of the breastplate.

18 And the two other ends of the two cords they put on the two settings and put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front of it.

19 And they made two rings of gold and put them on the two ends of the breastplate on its edge, which was toward the ephod on the inside.

20 And they made two rings of gold and put them on the bottom of the two shoulder pieces of the ephod on the front of it, close to the place where it is joined, above the skillfully woven band of the ephod.

21 This is the sum of the things for the tabernacle, the Tabernacle of the Testimony, as they were counted according to the commandment of Moses for the service of the Levites by the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.

22 And Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that Jehovah commanded Moses.

23 And with him was Oholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver and a skillful workman and an embroiderer in blue and in purple and in scarlet strands and in fine linen.

24 All the gold that was used for the work in all the work of the sanctuary, even the gold of the wave offering, was twenty- nine talents and seven hundred thirty shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary.

25 And the silver of those who were numbered of the assembly was one hundred talents and one thousand seven hundred seventy-five shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary;

26 A beka a head, that is, half a shekel, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, for everyone enrolled with those who were numbered, from twenty years old and upward, for six hundred three thousand, five hundred fifty men.

27 And the hundred talents of silver were for casting the sockets of the sanctuary and the sockets of the veil; one hundred sockets for the hundred talents, a talent for a socket.

28 And of the one thousand seven hundred seventy-five shekels he made hooks for the pillars and overlaid their capitals and made connecting rods for them.

29 And the bronze of the wave offering was seventy talents, and two thousand four hundred shekels.

30 And with it he made the sockets for the entrance of the Tent of Meeting and the bronze altar and the bronze grating for it and all the utensils of the altar
