Exodus 40

New Century Version NCV

1 Then the Lord said to Moses:

2 "On the first day of the first month, set up the Holy Tent, which is the Meeting Tent.

3 Put the Ark of the Agreement in it and hang the curtain in front of the Ark.

4 Bring in the table and arrange everything on the table that should be there. Then bring in the lampstand and set up its lamps.

5 Put the gold altar for burning incense in front of the Ark of the Agreement, and put the curtain at the entrance to the Holy Tent.

6 "Put the altar of burnt offerings in front of the entrance of the Holy Tent, the Meeting Tent.

7 Put the bowl between the Meeting Tent and the altar, and put water in it.

8 Set up the courtyard around the Holy Tent, and put the curtain at the entry to the courtyard.

9 "Use the special olive oil and pour it on the Holy Tent and everything in it, in order to give the Tent and all that is in it for service to the Lord. They will be holy.

10 Pour the special oil on the altar for burnt offerings and on all its tools. Give the altar for service to God, and it will be very holy.

11 Then pour the special olive oil on the bowl and the base under it so that they will be given for service to God.

12 "Bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the Meeting Tent, and wash them with water.

13 Then put the holy clothes on Aaron. Pour the special oil on him, and give him for service to God so that he may serve me as a priest.

14 Bring Aaron's sons and put the inner robes on them.

15 Pour the special oil on them in the same way that you appointed their father as priest so that they may also serve me as priests. Pouring oil on them will make them a family of priests, they and their descendants from now on."

16 Moses did everything that the Lord commanded him.

17 So the Holy Tent was set up on the first day of the first month during the second year after they left Egypt.

18 When Moses set up the Holy Tent, he put the bases in place, and he put the frames on the bases. Next he put the crossbars through the rings of the frames and set up the posts.

19 After that, Moses spread the cloth over the Holy Tent and put the covering over it, just as the Lord commanded.

20 Moses put the stone tablets that had the Agreement written on them into the Ark. He put the poles through the rings of the Ark and put the lid on it.

21 Next he brought the Ark into the Tent and hung the curtain to cover the Ark, just as the Lord commanded him.

22 Moses put the table in the Meeting Tent on the north side of the Holy Tent in front of the curtain.

23 Then he put the bread on the table before the Lord, just as the Lord commanded him.

24 Moses put the lampstand in the Meeting Tent on the south side of the Holy Tent across from the table.

25 Then he put the lamps on the lampstand before the Lord, just as the Lord commanded him.

26 Moses put the gold altar for burning incense in the Meeting Tent in front of the curtain.

27 Then he burned sweet-smelling incense on it, just as the Lord commanded him.

28 Then he hung the curtain at the entrance to the Holy Tent.

29 He put the altar for burnt offerings at the entrance to the Holy Tent, the Meeting Tent, and offered a whole burnt offering and grain offerings on it, just as the Lord commanded him.

30 Moses put the bowl between the Meeting Tent and the altar for burnt offerings, and he put water in it for washing.

31 Moses, Aaron, and Aaron's sons used this water to wash their hands and feet.

32 They washed themselves every time they entered the Meeting Tent and every time they went near the altar for burnt offerings, just as the Lord commanded Moses.

33 Then Moses set up the courtyard around the Holy Tent and the altar, and he put up the curtain at the entry to the courtyard. So Moses finished the work.

34 Then the cloud covered the Meeting Tent, and the glory of the Lord filled the Holy Tent.

35 Moses could not enter the Meeting Tent, because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the Lord filled the Holy Tent.

36 When the cloud rose from the Holy Tent, the Israelites would begin to travel,

37 but as long as the cloud stayed on the Holy Tent, they did not travel. They stayed in that place until the cloud rose.

38 So the cloud of the Lord was over the Holy Tent during the day, and there was a fire in the cloud at night. So all the Israelites could see the cloud while they traveled.

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.
