Exodus, Chapter 32, verses 31-35
31 Then Moses returned to the LORD, and said, “Alas, this people hasucommitted a great sin, and they have madeva god of gold for themselves. 32 But now, if You will, forgive their sin—and if not, please blot me out from Your book which You have written!” 33 The LORD said to Moses, “Whoever has sinned against Me, I will blot him out of My book. 34 But go now, lead the people where I told you. Behold, My angel shall go before you; nevertheless in the day when Iwpunish, I willxpunish them for their sin.” 35 Then the LORD smote the people, because of what they did with the calf which Aaron had made. |
Exodus, Chapter 33
1 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, “Depart, go up from here, you and the people whom you have brought up from the land of Egypt, to the land of which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, ‘To youradescendants I will give it.’ 2 I will send an angel before you and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite and the Jebusite. 3 Go up to a land flowing with milk and honey; for I will not go up in your midst, because you areban obstinate people, and I might destroy you on the way.” |
4 When the people heard thiscsad word, they went into mourning, and none of them put on his ornaments. 5 For the LORD had said to Moses, “Say to the sons of Israel, ‘You aredan obstinate people; should I go up in your midst for one moment, I would destroy you. Now therefore, put off your ornaments from you, that I may know what I shall do with you.’” 6 So the sons of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments, from Mount Horeb onward. |
7 Now Moses used to take the tent and pitch it outside the camp, a good distance from the camp, and he called it the tent of meeting. And everyone who sought the LORD would go out to the tent of meeting which was outside the camp. 8 And it came about, whenever Moses went out to the tent, that all the people would arise and stand, each at the entrance of his tent, and gaze after Moses until he entered the tent. 9 Whenever Moses entered the tent, the pillar of cloud would descend and stand at the entrance of the tent; andethe LORD would speak with Moses. 10 When all the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the entrance of the tent, all the people would arise and worship, each at the entrance of his tent. 11 Thus the LORD used to speak to Moses face to face, just as a man speaks to his friend. WhenfMoses returned to the camp, his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, would not depart from the tent. |
12 Then Moses said to the LORD, “See, You say to me, ‘Bring up this people!’ But You Yourself have not let me know whom You will send with me. Moreover, You have said, ‘I have known you by name, and you have also found favor in My sight.’ 13 Now therefore, I pray You, if I have found favor in Your sight, let me know Your ways that I may know You, so that I may find favor in Your sight. Consider too, that this nation is Your people.” 14 And He said, “My presence shall go with you, and I will give you rest.” 15 Then he said to Him, “If Your presence does not go with us, do not lead us up from here. 16 For how then can it be known that I have found favor in Your sight, I and Your people? Is it not by Your going with us, so that we, I and Your people, may be distinguished from all the other people who are upon the face of thegearth?” |
17 The LORD said to Moses, “I will also do this thing of which you have spoken; for you have found favor in My sight and I have known you by name.” 18 ThenhMoses said, “I pray You, show me Your glory!” 19 And He said, “I Myself will make all My goodness pass before you, and will proclaim the name of the LORD before you; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show compassion on whom I will show compassion.” 20 But He said, “You cannot see My face, for no man can see Me and live!” 21 Then the LORD said, “Behold, there is a placeiby Me, and you shall stand there on the rock; 22 and it will come about, while My glory is passing by, that I will put you in the cleft of the rock and cover you with My hand until I have passed by. 23 Then I will take My hand away and you shall see My back, but My face shall not be seen.” |
Exodus, Chapter 34
1 Now the LORD said to Moses, “Cut out for yourself two stone tablets like the former ones, and I will write on the tablets the words that were on the former tablets which you shattered. 2 So be ready by morning, and come up in the morning to Mount Sinai, andapresent yourself there to Me on the top of the mountain. 3 No man is to come up with you, nor let any man be seenbanywhere on the mountain; even the flocks and the herds may not graze in front of that mountain.” 4 So he cut out two stone tablets like the former ones, and Moses rose up early in the morning and went up to Mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and he took two stone tablets in his hand. 5 The LORD descended in the cloud and stood there with him asche called upon the name of the LORD. 6 Then the LORD passed by in front of him and proclaimed, “The LORD, the LORD God, compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in lovingkindness anddtruth; 7 who keeps lovingkindness for thousands, who forgives iniquity, transgression and sin; yet He will by no means leave the guilty unpunished, visiting the iniquity of fathers on the children and on the grandchildren to the third and fourth generations.” 8 Moses made hasteeto bow low toward the earth and worship. 9 He said, “If now I have found favor in Your sight, O Lord, I pray, let the Lord go along in our midst, even thoughfthe people are so obstinate, and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us as Your owngpossession.” |
10 ThenhGod said, “Behold, I am going to make a covenant. Before all your people I will perform miracles which have not beeniproduced in all the earth nor among any of the nations; and all the peoplejamong whom you live will see the working of the LORD, for it is a fearful thing that I am going to perform with you. |
11 “kBe sure to observe what I am commanding you this day: behold, I am going to drive out the Amorite before you, and the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite and the Jebusite. 12 Watch yourself that you make no covenant with the inhabitants of the land into which you are going, or it will become a snare in your midst. 13 But rather, you are to tear down their altars and smash their sacred pillars and cut down theirlAsherim 14 —for you shall not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God— 15 otherwise you might make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land and they would play the harlot with their gods and sacrifice to their gods, and someone might invite youmto eat of his sacrifice, 16 and you might take some of his daughters for your sons, and his daughters might play the harlot with their gods and cause your sons also to play the harlot with their gods. 17 You shall make for yourself no molten gods. |
18 “You shall observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread. For seven days you are to eat unleavened bread,nas I commanded you, at the appointed time in the month of Abib, for in the month of Abib you came out of Egypt. |
19 “The first offspring from every womb belongs to Me, and all your male livestock, the first offspring fromocattle and sheep. 20 You shall redeem with a lamb thepfirst offspring from a donkey; and if you do not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. You shall redeem all the firstborn of your sons.qNone shall appear before Me empty-handed. |
21 “You shall work six days, but on the seventh day you shall rest; even during plowing time and harvest you shall rest. 22 You shall celebrate the Feast of Weeks, that is, the first fruits of the wheat harvest, and the Feast of Ingathering at the turn of the year. 23 Three times a year all your males are to appear before the LordrGOD, the God of Israel. 24 For I willsdrive out nations before you and enlarge your borders, and no man shall covet your land when you go up three times a year to appear before the LORD your God. |
27 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Writevdown these words, for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel.” 28 So he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he did not eat bread or drink water. Andwhe wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the TenxCommandments. |
29 It came about when Moses was coming down from Mount Sinai (and the two tablets of the testimony were in Moses’ hand as he was coming down from the mountain), that Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone because of his speaking with Him. 30 So when Aaron and all the sons of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone, and they were afraid to come near him. 31 Then Moses called to them, and Aaron and all the rulers in the congregation returned to him; and Moses spoke to them. 32 Afterward all the sons of Israel came near, and he commanded them to do everything that the LORD had spokenyto him on Mount Sinai. 33 When Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil over his face. 34 But whenever Moses went in before the LORD to speak with Him, he would take off the veil until he came out; and whenever he came out and spoke to the sons of Israel what he had been commanded, 35 the sons of Israel would see the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses’ face shone. So Moses would replace the veil over his face until he went in to speak with Him. |
Exodus, Chapter 35
1 Then Moses assembled all the congregation of the sons of Israel, and said to them, “These are the things that the LORD has commanded you toado: |
4 Moses spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, “This is the thing which the LORD has commanded, saying, 5 ‘Take from among you abcontribution to the LORD; whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it as the LORD’Sccontribution: gold, silver, anddbronze, 6 andeblue, purple and scarlet material, fine linen, goats’ hair, 7 and rams’ skinsfdyed red, and porpoise skins, and acacia wood, 8 and oil for lighting, and spices for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense, 9 and onyx stones and setting stones for the ephod and for thegbreastpiece. |
10 ‘Let every skillful man among you come, and make all that the LORD has commanded: 11 thehtabernacle, its tent and its covering, its hooks and its boards, its bars, its pillars, and itsisockets; 12 the ark and its poles, thejmercy seat, and the curtain of the screen; 13 the table and its poles, and all itskutensils, and the bread of thelPresence; 14 the lampstand also for the light and its utensils and its lamps and the oil for the light; 15 and the altar of incense and its poles, and the anointing oil and the fragrant incense, and the screen for the doorway at thementrance of the tabernacle; 16 the altar of burnt offering with itsnbronze grating, its poles, and all itsoutensils, thepbasin and its stand; 17 the hangings of the court, its pillars and itsqsockets, and the screen for the gate of the court; 18 the pegs of the tabernacle and the pegs of the court and their cords; 19 therwoven garments for ministering in the holy place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons, to minister as priests.’” |
20 Then all the congregation of the sons of Israel departed from Moses’ presence. 21 Everyone whose heartsstirred him and everyone whose spirittmoved him came and brought the LORD’Sucontribution for the work of the tent of meeting and for all its service and for the holy garments. 22 Then allvwhose hearts moved them, both men and women, came and brought brooches andwearrings and signet rings and bracelets, all articles of gold; so did every man whoxpresented an offering of gold to the LORD. 23 Every man,ywho had in his possessionzblue and purple and scarlet material and fine linen and goats’ hair and rams’ skinsaadyed red and porpoise skins, brought them. 24 Everyone who could make aabcontribution of silver andacbronze brought the LORD’Sadcontribution; and every manaewho had in his possession acacia wood for any work of the service brought it. 25 All theafskilled women spun with their hands, and brought what they had spun, inagblue and purple and scarlet material and in fine linen. 26 All the women whose heartahstirred with a skill spun the goats’ hair. 27 The rulers brought the onyx stones and the stones for setting for the ephod and for theaibreastpiece; 28 and the spice and the oil for the light and for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense. 29 TheajIsraelites, all the men and women, whose heartakmoved them to bring material for all the work, which the LORD had commanded through Moses to be done, brought a freewill offering to the LORD. |
30 Then Moses said to the sons of Israel, “See, the LORD has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. 31 And He has filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding and in knowledge and in allalcraftsmanship; 32 amto make designs for working in gold and in silver and inanbronze, 33 and in the cutting of stones for settings and in the carving of wood, so as to perform in every inventive work. 34 He also has put in his heart to teach, both he and Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. 35 He has filled them withaoskill to perform every work of an engraver and of a designer and of an embroiderer, inapblue and in purple and in scarlet material, and in fine linen, and of a weaver, as performers of every work and makers of designs. |
Exodus, Chapter 36
2 Then Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab and everydskillful person inewhom the LORD had putfskill, everyone whose heart stirred him, to come to the work to perform it. 3 They received from Moses all thegcontributions which the sons of Israel had broughthto perform the workiin the construction of the sanctuary. And they still continued bringing to him freewill offerings every morning. 4 And all thejskillful men who were performing all the work of the sanctuary came, each fromkthe work whichlhe was performing, 5 and they said tomMoses, “The people are bringing much more than enough for thenconstruction work which the LORD commanded us tooperform.” 6 So Moses issued a command, and approclamation was circulated throughout the camp, saying, “Let no man or woman any longer perform work for theqcontributions of the sanctuary.” Thus the people were restrained from bringing any more. 7 For thermaterial they had was sufficient and more than enough for all the work, to perform it. |
8 All thesskillful men among those who were performing the work made thettabernacle with ten curtains; of fine twisted linen andublue and purple and scarlet material, with cherubim, the work of a skillful workman,vBezalel made them. 9 The length of each curtain was twenty-eightwcubits and the width of each curtain fourxcubits; all the curtains hadythe same measurements. 10 Hezjoined five curtains to one another and the other five curtains heaajoined to one another. 11 He made loops ofabblue on the edge of theacoutermost curtain in the firstadset; he did likewise on the edge of the curtain that wasaeoutermost in the secondafset. 12 He made fifty loops in the one curtain and he made fifty loops on theagedge of the curtain that was in the secondahset; the loops were opposite each other. 13 He made fifty clasps of gold andaijoined the curtains to one another with the clasps, so the tabernacle wasaja unit. |
14 Then he made curtains of goats’ hair for a tent over the tabernacle; he made eleven curtainsakin all. 15 The length of each curtain was thirty cubits and four cubits the width of each curtain; the eleven curtains hadalthe same measurements. 16 Heamjoined five curtains by themselves and the other six curtains by themselves. 17 Moreover, he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was outermost in the firstanset, and he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was outermost in the secondaoset. 18 He made fifty clasps ofapbronze toaqjoin the tent together so that it would beara unit. 19 He made a covering for the tent of rams’ skinsasdyed red, and a covering of porpoise skins above. |
20 Then he made the boards for the tabernacle of acacia wood, standing upright. 21 Ten cubits was the length ofateach board and one and a half cubits the width of each board. 22 There were two tenons for each board,aufitted to one another; thus he did for all the boards of the tabernacle. 23 He made the boards for the tabernacle: twenty boardsavfor the south side; 24 and he made fortyawsockets of silver under the twenty boards; twoaxsockets under one board for its two tenons and twoaysockets under another board for its two tenons. 25 Then for the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, he made twenty boards, 26 and their fortyazsockets of silver; twobasockets under one board and twobbsockets under another board. 27 For thebcrear of the tabernacle, to the west, he made six boards. 28 He made two boards for the corners of thebdtabernacle at theberear. 29 They were double beneath, and together they were complete to itsbftopbgto the first ring; thus he did with both of them for the two corners. 30 There were eight boards with theirbhsockets of silver, sixteenbisockets,bjtwo under every board. |
31 Then he made bars of acacia wood, five for the boards of one side of the tabernacle, 32 and five bars for the boards of thebkother side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for theblrear side to the west. 33 He made the middle bar to pass through in thebmcenter of the boards from end to end. 34 He overlaid the boards with gold and made their rings of gold as holders for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold. |
35 Moreover, he made the veil ofbnblue and purple and scarlet material, and fine twisted linen; he made it with cherubim, the work of a skillful workman. 36 He made four pillars of acacia for it, and overlaid them with gold, with their hooks of gold; and he cast fourbosockets of silver for them. 37 He made a screen for the doorway of the tent, ofbpblue and purple and scarlet material, and fine twisted linen, the work of abqweaver; 38 and he made its five pillars with their hooks, and he overlaid their tops and theirbrbands with gold; but their fivebssockets were ofbtbronze. |
Exodus, Chapter 37
1 Now Bezalel made the ark of acacia wood; its length was two and a halfacubits, and its width one and a half cubits, and its height one and a half cubits; 2 and he overlaid it with pure gold inside and out, and made a gold molding for it all around. 3 He cast four rings of gold for it on its four feet; even two rings on one side of it, and two rings on thebother side of it. 4 He made poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold. 5 He put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to carrycit. 6 He made admercy seat of pure gold, two and a half cubitselong and one and a half cubitsfwide. 7 He made two cherubim of gold; he made them of hammered workgat the two ends of the mercy seat; 8 one cherubhat the one end and one cherubiat the other end; he made the cherubim of one piece with the mercy seatjat the two ends. 9 The cherubim had their wings spread upward, covering thekmercy seat with their wings, with their faces toward each other; the faces of the cherubim were toward the mercy seat. |
10 Then he made the table of acacia wood, twolcubitsmlong and a cubitnwide and one and a half cubitsohigh. 11 He overlaid it with pure gold, and made a gold molding for it all around. 12 He made a rim for it of a handbreadth all around, and made a gold molding for its rim all around. 13 He cast four gold rings for it and put the rings on the four corners that were on its four feet. 14 Close by the rim were the rings, the holders for the poles to carry the table. 15 He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold, to carry the table. 16 He made the utensils which were on the table, itspdishes and its pans and itsqbowls and its jars, with which to pour out drink offerings, of pure gold. |
17 Then he made the lampstand of pure gold. He made the lampstand of hammered work, its base and its shaft; its cups, itsrbulbs and its flowers were of one piece with it. 18 There were six branches going out of its sides; three branches of the lampstand from the one side of it and three branches of the lampstand from thesother side of it; 19 three cups shaped like almond blossoms, atbulb and a flower in one branch, and three cups shaped like almond blossoms, aubulb and a flower in the other branch—so for the six branches going out of the lampstand. 20 In the lampstand there were four cups shaped like almond blossoms, itsvbulbs and its flowers; 21 and awbulb was under the first pair of branches coming out of it, and axbulb under the second pair of branches coming out of it, and aybulb under the third pair of branches coming out of it, for the six branches coming out of the lampstand. 22 Theirzbulbs and their branches were of one piece with it; the whole of it was a single hammered work of pure gold. 23 He made its seven lamps with its snuffers and itsaatrays of pure gold. 24 He made it and all its utensils from a talent of pure gold. |
25 Then he made the altar of incense of acacia wood: a cubitablong and a cubitacwide, square, and two cubitsadhigh; its horns were of one piece with it. 26 He overlaid it with pure gold, its top and itsaesides all around, and its horns; and he made a gold molding for it all around. 27 He made two golden rings for it under its molding, on its two sides—on opposite sides—as holders for poles with which to carry it. 28 He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold. 29 And he made the holy anointing oil and the pure, fragrant incense of spices, the work of a perfumer. |

1 Then he made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood, fiveacubitsblong, and five cubitscwide, square, and three cubitsdhigh. 2 He made its horns on its four corners, its hornsebeing of one piece with it, and he overlaid it withfbronze. 3 He made all the utensils of the altar, the pails and the shovels and the basins, the flesh hooks and the firepans; he made all its utensils of bronze. 4 He made for the altar a grating of bronze network beneath, under its ledge, reaching halfway up. 5 He cast four rings on the four ends of the bronze grating as holders for the poles. 6 He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze. 7 He inserted the poles into the rings on the sides of the altar, with which to carry it. He made it hollow with planks. |
8 Moreover, he made the laver of bronze with its base of bronze,gfrom the mirrors of the serving women who served at the doorway of the tent of meeting. |
9 Then he made the court:hfor the south side the hangings of the court were of fine twisted linen, one hundred cubits; 10 their twenty pillars, and their twentyisockets, made of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and theirjbands were of silver. 11 For the north side there were one hundred cubits; their twenty pillars and their twentyksockets were of bronze, the hooks of the pillars and theirlbands were of silver. 12 For the west side there were hangings of fifty cubits with their ten pillars and their tenmsockets; the hooks of the pillars and theirnbands were of silver. 13 For theoeast side fifty cubits. 14 The hangings for the onepside of the gate were fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their threeqsockets, 15 and so for therothersside.tOn both sides of the gate of the court were hangings of fifteen cubits, with their three pillars and their threeusockets. 16 All the hangings of the court all around were of fine twisted linen. 17 Thevsockets for the pillars were ofwbronze, the hooks of the pillars and theirxbands, of silver; and the overlaying of their tops, of silver, and all the pillars of the court were furnished with silverybands. 18 The screen of the gate of the court was the work of thezweaver, ofaablue and purple and scarlet material and fine twisted linen. And the length was twenty cubits and theabheight was five cubits, corresponding to the hangings of the court. 19 Their four pillars and their fouracsockets were of bronze; their hooks were of silver, and the overlaying of their tops and theiradbands were of silver. 20 All the pegs of theaetabernacle and of the court all around were of bronze. |
21 afThis is the number of the things for theagtabernacle, theahtabernacle of the testimony, as they wereainumbered according to theajcommand of Moses, for the service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. 22 Now Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that the LORD had commanded Moses. 23 With him was Oholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver and a skillful workman and aakweaver inalblue and in purple and in scarlet material, and fine linen. |
24 All the gold that was used for the work, in all the work of the sanctuary, even the gold of the wave offering, was 29 talents and 730 shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary. 25 The silver of those of the congregation who wereamnumbered was 100 talents and 1,775 shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary; 26 a beka a head (that is, half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary), for each one who passed over to those who wereannumbered, from twenty years old and upward, for 603,550 men. 27 The hundred talents of silver were for casting theaosockets of the sanctuary and theapsockets of the veil; one hundredaqsockets for the hundred talents, a talent for aarsocket. 28 Of the 1,775 shekels, he made hooks for the pillars and overlaid their tops and madeasbands for them. 29 The bronze of the wave offering was 70 talents and 2,400 shekels. 30 With it he made theatsockets to the doorway of the tent of meeting, and the bronze altar and its bronze grating, and all the utensils of the altar, 31 and theausockets of the court all around and theavsockets of the gate of the court, and all the pegs of theawtabernacle and all the pegs of the court all around. |
Exodus, Chapter 39
2 He made the ephod of gold, and ofcblue and purple and scarlet material, and fine twisted linen. 3 Then they hammered out gold sheets and cut them into threadsdto be woven in with theeblue and the purple and the scarlet material, and the fine linen, the work of a skillful workman. 4 They made attaching shoulder pieces forfthe ephod; it was attached at its two upper ends. 5 The skillfully woven band which was on it was like its workmanship,gof the same material: of gold and ofhblue and purple and scarlet material, and fine twisted linen, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
8 He made the breastpiece, the work of a skillful workman, like the workmanship of the ephod: of gold and ofiblue and purple and scarlet material and fine twisted linen. 9 It was square; they made the breastpiece folded double, a spanjlong and a spankwide when folded double. 10 And theylmounted four rows of stones on it. The first row was a row of ruby, topaz, and emerald; 11 and the second row, a turquoise, a sapphire and a diamond; 12 and the third row, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst; 13 and the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper. They were set in gold filigree settings when they weremmounted. 14 The stones were corresponding to the names of the sons of Israel; they were twelve, corresponding to their names, engraved with the engravings of a signet, each with its name for the twelve tribes. 15 They made on the breastpiece chains like cords, of twisted cordage work in pure gold. 16 They made two gold filigree settings and two gold rings, and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastpiece. 17 Then they put the two gold cords in the two rings at the ends of the breastpiece. 18 They put the other two ends of the two cords on the two filigree settings, and put them on the shoulder pieces of the ephod at the front of it. 19 They made two gold rings and placed them on the two ends of the breastpiece, on its inner edge which was next to the ephod. 20 Furthermore, they made two gold rings and placed them on the bottom of the two shoulder pieces of the ephod, on the front of it, close to the place where it joined, above the woven band of the ephod. 21 They bound the breastpiece by its rings to the rings of the ephod with anblue cord, so that it would be on the woven band of the ephod, and that the breastpiece would not come loose from the ephod, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
22 Then he made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all ofoblue; 23 and the opening of the robe was at the top in the center, as the opening of a coat of mail, with a binding all around its opening, so that it would not be torn. 24 They made pomegranates ofpblue and purple and scarlet material and twisted linen on the hem of the robe. 25 They also made bells of pure gold, and put the bells between the pomegranates all around on the hem of theqrobe, 26 ralternating a bell and a pomegranate all around on the hem of the robe for the service, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
27 They made the tunics of finely woven linen for Aaron and his sons, 28 and the turban of fine linen, and the decoratedscaps of fine linen, and the linen breeches of fine twisted linen, 29 and the sash of fine twisted linen, andtblue and purple and scarlet material, the work of theuweaver, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
32 Thus all the work of theztabernacle of the tent of meeting was completed; and the sons of Israel did according to all that the LORD had commanded Moses; so they did. 33 They brought the tabernacle to Moses, the tent and all itsaafurnishings: its clasps, its boards, its bars, and its pillars and itsabsockets; 34 and the covering of rams’ skinsacdyed red, and the covering of porpoise skins, and the screening veil; 35 the ark of the testimony and its poles and theadmercy seat; 36 the table, all its utensils, and the bread of theaePresence; 37 the pure gold lampstand,afwith its arrangement of lamps and all its utensils, and the oil for the light; 38 and the gold altar, and the anointing oil and the fragrant incense, and the veil for the doorway of the tent; 39 theagbronze altar and itsahbronze grating, its poles and all its utensils, the laver and its stand; 40 the hangings for the court, its pillars and itsaisockets, and the screen for the gate of the court, its cords and its pegs and all theajequipment for the service of the tabernacle, for the tent of meeting; 41 the woven garments for ministering in the holy place and the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons, to minister as priests. 42 So the sons of Israel did all the work according to all that the LORD had commanded Moses. 43 And Mosesakexamined all the work and behold, they had done it; just as the LORD had commanded, this they had done. So Moses blessed them. |

1 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “On the first day of the first month you shall set up theatabernacle of the tent of meeting. 3 You shall place the ark of the testimony there, and you shall screen the ark with the veil. 4 You shall bring in the table andbarrange what belongs on it; and you shall bring in the lampstand andcmount its lamps. 5 Moreover, you shall set the gold altar of incense before the ark of the testimony, and set up the veil for the doorway to the tabernacle. 6 You shall set the altar of burnt offering in front of the doorway of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting. 7 You shall set the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar and put waterdin it. 8 You shall set up the court all around andehang up the veil for the gateway of the court. 9 Then you shall take the anointing oil and anoint the tabernacle and all that is in it, and shall consecrate it and all itsffurnishings; and it shall be holy. 10 You shall anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils, and consecrate the altar, and the altar shall be most holy. 11 You shall anoint the laver and its stand, and consecrate it. 12 Then you shall bring Aaron and his sons to the doorway of the tent of meeting and wash them with water. 13 You shall put the holy garments on Aaron and anoint him and consecrate him, that he may minister as a priest to Me. 14 You shall bring his sons and put tunics on them; 15 and you shall anoint them even as you have anointed their father, that they may minister as priests to Me; and their anointing willgqualify them for a perpetual priesthood throughout their generations.” 16 Thus Moses did; according to all that the LORD had commanded him, so he did. |
17 Now in the first monthhof the second year, on the first day of the month, theitabernacle was erected. 18 Moses erected the tabernacle andjlaid itsksockets, and set up its boards, andlinserted its bars and erected its pillars. 19 He spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tentmon top of it, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 20 Then he took the testimony and put it into the ark, andnattached the poles to the ark, and put theomercy seatpon top of the ark. 21 He brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up a veil for the screen, and screened off the ark of the testimony, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 22 Then he put the table in the tent of meeting on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil. 23 He set the arrangement of bread in order on it before the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 24 Then he placed the lampstand in the tent of meeting, opposite the table, on the south side of the tabernacle. 25 He lighted the lamps before the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 26 Then he placed the gold altar in the tent of meeting in front of the veil; 27 and he burned fragrant incense on it, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 28 Then he set up theqveil for the doorway of the tabernacle. 29 He set the altar of burnt offering before the doorway of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and offered on it the burnt offering and the meal offering, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 30 He placed the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing. 31 From it Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet. 32 When they entered the tent of meeting, and when they approached the altar, they washed, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 33 He erected the court all around thertabernacle and the altar, andshung up the veil for the gateway of the court. Thus Moses finished the work. |
34 Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. 35 Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. 36 Throughout all their journeys whenever the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the sons of Israel would set out; 37 but if the cloud was not taken up, then they did not set out until the day when it was taken up. 38 For throughout all their journeys, the cloud of the LORD was on the tabernacle by day, and there was fire in it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel. |
