The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 ADONAI said to Moshe,

2 "On the first day of the first month, you are to set up the tabernacle, the tent of meeting.

3 Put in it the ark for the testimony, and conceal the ark with the curtain.

4 Bring in the table, and arrange its display. Bring in the menorah, and light its lamps.

5 Set the gold altar for incense in front of the ark for the testimony, and set up the screen at the entrance to the tabernacle.

6 Place the altar for burnt offerings in front of the entrance to the tabernacle, the tent of meeting.

7 Set the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it.

8 Set up the courtyard all the way around, and hang up the screen for the entrance to the courtyard.

9 "Take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle and everything in it -consecrate it with all its furnishings; then it will be holy.

10 Anoint the altar for burnt offerings with all its utensils - consecrate the altar; then the altar will be especially holy.

11 Anoint the basin and its base, and consecrate it.

12 "Then bring Aharon and his sons to the entrance of the tent of meeting and wash them with water.

13 Put the holy garments on Aharon, anoint him, and consecrate him, so that he can serve me in the office of cohen.

14 Bring his sons, put tunics on them,

15 and anoint them as you anointed their father, so that they can serve me in the office of cohen. Their anointing will signify that the office of cohen is theirs through all their generations."

16 Moshe did this - he acted in accordance with everything ADONAI had ordered him to do.

17 On the first day of the first month of the second year, the tabernacle was set up.

18 Moshe erected the tabernacle, put its sockets in place, put up its planks, put in its crossbars and set up its posts.

19 He spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent above it, as ADONAI had ordered Moshe.

20 He took and put the testimony inside the ark, put the poles on the ark, and set the ark-cover above, on the ark.

21 Then he brought the ark into the tabernacle, set up the curtain as a screen and concealed the ark for the testimony, as ADONAI had ordered Moshe.

22 He put the table in the tent of meeting on the side of the tabernacle facing north, outside the curtain.

23 He arranged a row of bread on it before ADONAI, as ADONAI had ordered Moshe.

24 He put the menorah in the tent of meeting across from the table, on the side of the tabernacle facing south.

25 Then he lit the lamps before ADONAI, as ADONAI had ordered Moshe.

26 He set the gold altar in the tent of meeting in front of the curtain

27 and burned on it incense made from aromatic spices, as ADONAI had ordered Moshe.

28 He set up the screen at the entrance to the tabernacle.

29 The altar for burnt offerings he placed at the entrance to the tabernacle, the tent of meeting, and offered on it the burnt offering and the grain offering, as ADONAI had ordered Moshe.

30 He set the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing,

31 so that Moshe and Aharon and his sons could wash their hands and feet there -

32 so that they could wash when entering the tent of meeting and when approaching the altar, as ADONAI had ordered Moshe.

33 Finally, he erected the courtyard around the tabernacle and the altar and set up the screen for the entrance to the courtyard.

34 Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of ADONAI filled the tabernacle.

35 Moshe was unable to enter the tent of meeting, because the cloud remained on it, and the glory of ADONAI filled the tabernacle.

36 Whenever the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the people of Isra'el continued with all their travels.

37 But if the cloud was not taken up, then they did not travel onward until the day when it was taken up.

38 For the cloud of ADONAI was above the tabernacle during the day, and fire was in [the cloud] at night, so that all the house of Isra'el could see it throughout all their travels.

New International Version NIV

1 Then the LORD said to Moses:

2 “Set up the tabernacle, the tent of meeting, on the first day of the first month.

3 Place the ark of the covenant law in it and shield the ark with the curtain.

4 Bring in the table and set out what belongs on it. Then bring in the lampstand and set up its lamps.

5 Place the gold altar of incense in front of the ark of the covenant law and put the curtain at the entrance to the tabernacle.

6 “Place the altar of burnt offering in front of the entrance to the tabernacle, the tent of meeting;

7 place the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar and put water in it.

8 Set up the courtyard around it and put the curtain at the entrance to the courtyard.

9 “Take the anointing oil and anoint the tabernacle and everything in it; consecrate it and all its furnishings, and it will be holy.

10 Then anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils; consecrate the altar, and it will be most holy.

11 Anoint the basin and its stand and consecrate them.

12 “Bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance to the tent of meeting and wash them with water.

13 Then dress Aaron in the sacred garments, anoint him and consecrate him so he may serve me as priest.

14 Bring his sons and dress them in tunics.

15 Anoint them just as you anointed their father, so they may serve me as priests. Their anointing will be to a priesthood that will continue throughout their generations.”

16 Moses did everything just as the LORD commanded him.

17 So the tabernacle was set up on the first day of the first month in the second year.

18 When Moses set up the tabernacle, he put the bases in place, erected the frames, inserted the crossbars and set up the posts.

19 Then he spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering over the tent, as the LORD commanded him.

20 He took the tablets of the covenant law and placed them in the ark, attached the poles to the ark and put the atonement cover over it.

21 Then he brought the ark into the tabernacle and hung the shielding curtain and shielded the ark of the covenant law, as the LORD commanded him.

22 Moses placed the table in the tent of meeting on the north side of the tabernacle outside the curtain

23 and set out the bread on it before the LORD, as the LORD commanded him.

24 He placed the lampstand in the tent of meeting opposite the table on the south side of the tabernacle

25 and set up the lamps before the LORD, as the LORD commanded him.

26 Moses placed the gold altar in the tent of meeting in front of the curtain

27 and burned fragrant incense on it, as the LORD commanded him.

28 Then he put up the curtain at the entrance to the tabernacle.

29 He set the altar of burnt offering near the entrance to the tabernacle, the tent of meeting, and offered on it burnt offerings and grain offerings, as the LORD commanded him.

30 He placed the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing,

31 and Moses and Aaron and his sons used it to wash their hands and feet.

32 They washed whenever they entered the tent of meeting or approached the altar, as the LORD commanded Moses.

33 Then Moses set up the courtyard around the tabernacle and altar and put up the curtain at the entrance to the courtyard. And so Moses finished the work.

34 Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.

35 Moses could not enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.

36 In all the travels of the Israelites, whenever the cloud lifted from above the tabernacle, they would set out;

37 but if the cloud did not lift, they did not set out—until the day it lifted.

38 So the cloud of the LORD was over the tabernacle by day, and fire was in the cloud by night, in the sight of all the Israelites during all their travels.
