39:43. And when Moses saw all things finished, he blessed them.
Exodus Chapter 40
The tabernacle is commanded to be set up and anointed. God filleth it
with his majesty.
40:1. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
40:2. The first month, the first day of the month, thou shalt set up the
tabernacle of the testimony,
40:3. And shalt put the ark in it, and shalt let down the veil before
it:
40:4. And thou shalt bring in the table, and set upon it the things that
are commanded according to the rite. The candlestick shall stand with
its lamps,
40:5. And the altar of gold, whereon the incense is burnt before the ark
of the testimony. Thou shalt put the hanging in the entry of the
tabernacle,
40:6. And before it the altar of holocaust.
40:7. The laver between the altar and the tabernacle, and thou shalt
fill it with water.
40:8. And thou shalt encompass the court with hangings, and the entry
thereof.
40:9. And thou shalt take the oil of unction and anoint the tabernacle
with its vessels, that they may be sanctified:
40:10. The altar of holocaust and all its vessels:
40:11. The laver with its foot: thou shalt consecrate all with the oil
of unction, that they may be most holy.
40:12. And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the
tabernacle of the testimony, and having washed them with water,
40:13. Thou shalt put on them the holy vestments, that they may minister
to me, and that the unction of them may prosper to an everlasting
priesthood.
40:14. And Moses did all that the Lord had commanded.
40:15. So in the first month of the second year, the first day of the
month, the tabernacle was set up.
40:16. And Moses reared it up, and placed the boards and the sockets and
the bars, and set up the pillars,
40:17. And spread the roof over the tabernacle, putting over it a cover,
as the Lord had commanded.
40:18. And he put the testimony in the ark, thrusting bars underneath,
and the oracle above.
40:19. And when he had brought the ark into the tabernacle, he drew the
veil before it to fulfil the command ment of the Lord.
40:20. And he set the table in the tabernacle of the testimony, at the
north side, without the veil,
40:21. Setting there in order the loaves of proposition, as the Lord had
commanded Moses.
40:22. He set the candlestick also in the tabernacle of the testimony,
over against the table on the south side,
40:23. Placing the lamps in order, according to the precept of the Lord.
40:24. He set also the altar of gold under the roof of the testimony,
over against the veil,
40:25. And burnt upon it the incense of spices, as the Lord had
commanded Moses.
40:26. And he put also the hanging in the entry of the tabernacle of the
testimony,
40:27. And the altar of holocaust in the entry of the testimony,
offering the holocaust, and the sacrifices upon it, as the Lord had
commanded.
40:28. And he set the laver between the tabernacle of the testimony and
the altar, filling it with water.
