1 locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen dicens
1
The LORD said to Moses,
2 mense primo die prima mensis eriges tabernaculum testimonii
2
"On the first day of the first month you shall erect the tabernacle of the tent of meeting.
3 et pones in eo arcam dimittesque ante illam velum
3
And you shall put in it the ark of the testimony, and you shall screen the ark with the veil.
4 et inlata mensa pones super eam quae rite praecepta sunt candelabrum stabit cum lucernis suis
4
And you shall bring in the table, and set its arrangements in order; and you shall bring in the lampstand, and set up its lamps.
5 et altare aureum in quo adoletur incensum coram arca testimonii tentorium in introitu tabernaculi pones
5
And you shall put the golden altar for incense before the ark of the testimony, and set up the screen for the door of the tabernacle.
6 et ante illud altare holocausti
6
You shall set the altar of burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting,
7 labrum inter altare et tabernaculum quod implebis aqua
7
and place the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it.
8 circumdabisque atrium tentoriis et ingressum eius
8
And you shall set up the court round about, and hang up the screen for the gate of the court.
9 et adsumpto unctionis oleo ungues tabernaculum cum vasis suis ut sanctificentur
9
Then you shall take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle and all that is in it, and consecrate it and all its furniture; and it shall become holy.
10 altare holocausti et omnia vasa eius
10
You shall also anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils, and consecrate the altar; and the altar shall be most holy.
11 labrum cum basi sua omnia unctionis oleo consecrabis ut sint sancta sanctorum
11
You shall also anoint the laver and its base, and consecrate it.
12 adplicabisque Aaron et filios eius ad fores tabernaculi testimonii et lotos aqua
12
Then you shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the tent of meeting, and shall wash them with water,
13 indues sanctis vestibus ut ministrent mihi et unctio eorum in sacerdotium proficiat sempiternum
13
and put upon Aaron the holy garments, and you shall anoint him and consecrate him, that he may serve me as priest.
14 fecitque Moses omnia quae praeceperat Dominus
14
You shall bring his sons also and put coats on them,
15 igitur mense primo anni secundi in prima die mensis conlocatum est tabernaculum
15
and anoint them, as you anointed their father, that they may serve me as priests: and their anointing shall admit them to a perpetual priesthood throughout their generations."
16 erexitque illud Moses et posuit tabulas ac bases et vectes statuitque columnas
16
Thus did Moses; according to all that the LORD commanded him, so he did.
17 et expandit tectum super tabernaculum inposito desuper operimento sicut Dominus imperarat
17
And in the first month in the second year, on the first day of the month, the tabernacle was erected.
18 posuit et testimonium in arca subditis infra vectibus et oraculum desuper
18
Moses erected the tabernacle; he laid its bases, and set up its frames, and put in its poles, and raised up its pillars;
19 cumque intulisset arcam in tabernaculum adpendit ante eam velum ut expleret Domini iussionem
19
and he spread the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent over it, as the LORD had commanded Moses.
20 posuit et mensam in tabernaculo testimonii ad plagam septentrionalem extra velum
20
And he took the testimony and put it into the ark, and put the poles on the ark, and set the mercy seat above on the ark;
21 ordinatis coram propositionis panibus sicut praeceperat Dominus Mosi
21
and he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the veil of the screen, and screened the ark of the testimony; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
22 posuit et candelabrum in tabernaculum testimonii e regione mensae in parte australi
22
And he put the table in the tent of meeting, on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil,
23 locatis per ordinem lucernis iuxta praeceptum Domini
23
and set the bread in order on it before the LORD; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
24 posuit et altare aureum sub tecto testimonii contra velum
24
And he put the lampstand in the tent of meeting, opposite the table on the south side of the tabernacle,
25 et adolevit super eo incensum aromatum sicut iusserat Dominus
25
and set up the lamps before the LORD; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
26 posuit et tentorium in introitu tabernaculi
26
And he put the golden altar in the tent of meeting before the veil,
27 et altare holocausti in vestibulo testimonii offerens in eo holocaustum et sacrificia ut Dominus imperarat
27
and burnt fragrant incense upon it; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
28 labrum quoque statuit inter tabernaculum testimonii et altare implens illud aqua
28
And he put in place the screen for the door of the tabernacle.
29 laveruntque Moses et Aaron ac filii eius manus suas et pedes
29
And he set the altar of burnt offering at the door of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and offered upon it the burnt offering and the cereal offering; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
30 cum ingrederentur tectum foederis et accederent ad altare sicut praeceperat Dominus
30
And he set the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it for washing,
31 erexit et atrium per gyrum tabernaculi et altaris ducto in introitu eius tentorio postquam cuncta perfecta sunt
31
with which Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet;
32 operuit nubes tabernaculum testimonii et gloria Domini implevit illud
32
when they went into the tent of meeting, and when they approached the altar, they washed; as the LORD commanded Moses.
33 nec poterat Moses ingredi tectum foederis nube operiente omnia et maiestate Domini coruscante quia cuncta nubes operuerat
33
And he erected the court round the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the screen of the gate of the court. So Moses finished the work.
34 si quando nubes tabernaculum deserebat proficiscebantur filii Israhel per turmas suas
34
Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
35 si pendebat desuper manebant in eodem loco
35
And Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting, because the cloud abode upon it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
36 nubes quippe Domini incubabat per diem tabernaculo et ignis in nocte videntibus populis Israhel per cunctas mansiones suas
36
Throughout all their journeys, whenever the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the people of Israel would go onward;
37
37
but if the cloud was not taken up, then they did not go onward till the day that it was taken up.
38
38
For throughout all their journeys the cloud of the LORD was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was in it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel.
