Exo 40:1The LORD spoke to Moshe, saying,
Exo 40:2"On the first day of the first month you shall raise up the tent of the Tent of Meeting.
Exo 40:3You shall put the ark of the testimony in it, and you shall screen the ark with the veil.
Exo 40:4You shall bring in the table, and set in order the things that are on it. You shall bring in the menorah, and light the lamps of it.
Exo 40:5You shall set the golden altar for incense before the ark of the testimony, and put the screen of the door to the tent.
Exo 40:6You shall set the altar of burnt offering before the door of the tent of the tent of meeting.
Exo 40:7You shall set the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar, and shall put water therein.
Exo 40:8You shall set up the court around it, and hang up the screen of the gate of the court.
Exo 40:9You shall take the anointing oil, and anoint the tent, and all that is in it, and shall make it holy, and all its furniture: and it will be holy.
Exo 40:10You shall anoint the altar of burnt offering, with all its vessels, and sanctify the altar: and the altar will be most holy.
Exo 40:11You shall anoint the basin and its base, and sanctify it.
Exo 40:12You shall bring Aharon and his sons to the door of the tent of meeting, and shall wash them with water.
Exo 40:13You shall put on Aharon the holy garments; and you shall anoint him, and sanctify him, that he may minister to me in the Kohen's office.
Exo 40:14You shall bring his sons, and put coats on them.
Exo 40:15You shall anoint them, as you anointed their father, that they may minister to me in the Kohen's office. Their anointing shall be to them for an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.
Exo 40:16Thus did Moshe: according to all that the LORD commanded him, so he did.
Exo 40:17It happened in the first month in the second year, on the first day of the month, that the tent was raised up.
Exo 40:18Moshe raised up the tent, and laid its sockets, and set up the boards of it, and put in the bars of it, and raised up its pillars.
Exo 40:19He spread the covering over the tent, and put the roof of the tent above on it, as the LORD commanded Moshe.
Exo 40:20He took and put the testimony into the teivah, and set the poles on the ark, and put the mercy seat above on the ark.
Exo 40:21He brought the ark into the tent, and set up the veil of the screen, and screened the ark of the testimony, as the LORD commanded Moshe.
Exo 40:22He put the table in the tent of meeting, on the side of the tent northward, outside of the veil.
Exo 40:23He set the bread in order on it before the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moshe.
Exo 40:24He put the menorah in the tent of meeting, opposite the table, on the side of the tent southward.
Exo 40:25He lit the lamps before the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moshe.
Exo 40:26He put the golden altar in the tent of meeting before the veil;
Exo 40:27and he burnt incense of sweet spices on it, as the LORD commanded Moshe.
Exo 40:28He put up the screen of the door to the tent.
Exo 40:29He set the altar of burnt offering at the door of the tent of the tent of meeting, and offered on it the burnt offering and the meal-offering, as the LORD commanded Moshe.
Exo 40:30He set the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water therein, with which to wash.
Exo 40:31Moshe, Aharon, and his sons washed their hands and their feet there.
Exo 40:32When they went into the tent of meeting, and when they came near to the altar, they washed, as the LORD commanded Moshe.
Exo 40:33He raised up the court around the tent and the altar, and set up the screen of the gate of the court. So Moshe finished the work.

The Glory of the LORD

Exo 40:34Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tent.
Exo 40:35Moshe wasn't able to enter into the tent of meeting, because the cloud stayed on it, and the LORD's glory filled the tent.
Exo 40:36When the cloud was taken up from over the tent, the children of Yisra'el went onward, throughout all their journeys;
Exo 40:37but if the cloud wasn't taken up, then they didn't travel until the day that it was taken up.
Exo 40:38For the cloud of the LORD was on the tent by day, and there was fire in the cloud by night, in the sight of all the house of Yisra'el, throughout all their journeys.
