Exodus 40 📜 📕

Setting Up the Tabernacle

1 AND Our Lord spake to Moyses, saying:📜💬📚
2 The first month, the first day of the month, thou shalt erect the tabernacle of the testimony,📜💬📚
3 & shalt put in it the ark, and shalt let down before it the veil:📜💬📚
4 & bringing in the table, thou shalt set upon it the things that are commanded after the rite. The candlestick shall stand with the lamps thereof,📜💬📚
5 and the altar of gold whereon the incense is burned, before the ark of testimony. Thou shalt put the hanging in the entry of the tabernacle,📜💬📚
6 and before it the altar of holocaust:📜💬📚
7 the laver between the altar and the tabernacle, which thou shalt fill with water.📜💬📚
8 And thou shalt compass about the court with hangings, & the entry thereof.📜💬📚
9 And taking the oil of unction thou shalt anoint the tabernacle with the vessel thereof, that they may be sanctified:📜💬📚
10 the altar of holocaust and all the vessel thereof:📜💬📚
11 the laver with the foot thereof; all shalt thou consecrate with the oil of unction, that they may be most Holy.📜💬📚
12 And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the tabernacle of testimony, and having washed them with water,📜💬📚
13 thou shalt revest them with the sacred vestments, that they may minister to me, and the unction of them may prosper to an everlasting priesthood.📜💬📚
14 And Moyses did all things which our Lord had commanded.📜💬📚
15 Therefore the first month of the second year, the first day of the month, the tabernacle was placed.📜💬📚
16 And Moyses erected it, and put the boards and feet and bars, and reared the pillars,📜💬📚
17 and spread the roof over the tabernacle, putting over it a cover, as our Lord had commanded.📜💬📚
18 He put also the testimony in the ark, thrusting bars underneath, and the oracle above.📜💬📚
19 And when he had brought the ark into the tabernacle, he drew before it the veil to fulfill the commandment of our Lord.📜💬📚
20 He set the table also in the tabernacle of testimony at the north side without the veil,📜💬📚
21 ordering the bread of proposition before it, as our Lord had commanded Moyses.📜💬📚
22 He set the candlestick also in the tabernacle of testimony over against the table on the south side,📜💬📚
23 placing the lamps in order, according to the precept of our Lord.📜💬📚
24 He set also the altar of gold under the roof of testimony against the veil,📜💬📚
25 and burned upon it the incense of spices, as our Lord had commanded Moyses.📜💬📚
26 He put also the hanging in the entry of the tabernacle of testimony,📜💬📚
27 and the altar of holocaust in the entry of the testimony, offering on it the holocaust, and the sacrifices, as our Lord had commanded.📜💬📚
28 The laver also he set between the tabernacle of testimony and the altar, filling it with water.📜💬📚
29 And Moyses and Aaron, and his sons washed their hands and feet,📜💬📚
30 when they entered the roof of covenant, and went to the altar, as our Lord had commanded Moyses.📜💬📚
31 He erected also the court, round about the tabernacle and the altar, drawing the hanging in the entry thereof. After all things were perfited,📜💬📚
32 the cloud covered the tabernacle of testimony, and the glory of our Lord filled it.📜💬📚
33 Neither could Moyses enter the roof of covenant, the cloud covering all things, and the majesty of our Lord shining, because the cloud had covered all things.📜💬📚

Cloud and the Glory

34 If at any time the cloud did leave the tabernacle, the children of Israel went forward by their troops:📜💬📚
35 If it hung over, they remained in the same place.📜💬📚
36 For the cloud of our Lord hung over the tabernacle by day, and fire by night, in the sight of all the children of Israel throughout all their mansions.📜💬📚
