Exode 40:1-7

1 Et l'Éternel parla à Moïse, en disant:

2 Au premier jour du premier mois, tu dresseras la Demeure du tabernacle d'assignation;

3 Et tu y mettras l'arche du Témoignage, et tu couvriras l'arche avec le voile.

4 Tu apporteras aussi la table, et tu y arrangeras ce qui doit y être arrangé; tu apporteras aussi le chandelier, et tu allumeras ses lampes.

5 Et tu mettras l'autel d'or pour le parfum devant l'arche du Témoignage, et tu poseras la tapisserie de l'entrée de la Demeure.

6 Et tu mettras l'autel de l'holocauste devant l'entrée de la Demeure du tabernacle d'assignation.

7 Et tu mettras la cuve entre le tabernacle d'assignation et l'autel, et tu y mettras de l'eau.
