Seeker Overlay ON
*
And Moses collected all the assembly of the children of Israel ,
and said to them ,
These are the things which Jehovah has commanded ,
to do them .
*
Six days shall work be done ,
but on the seventh day there shall be to you a holy day ,
a sabbath of rest to Jehovah :
whoever does work on it shall be put to death .
*
Ye shall kindle no fire throughout your dwellings upon the sabbath day .
*
And Moses spoke to all the assembly of the children of Israel ,
saying ,
This is the word which Jehovah has commanded ,
saying ,
*
Take from among you a heave-offering to Jehovah :
every one whose heart [
is ]
willing ,
let him bring it ,
Jehovah '
s heave-offering --
gold ,
and silver ,
and copper ,
*
and blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
and byssus ,
and goats ' [
hair ],
*
and rams '
skins dyed red ,
and badgers '
skins ,
and acacia-wood ,
*
and oil for the light ,
and spices for the anointing oil ,
and for the incense of fragrant drugs ;
*
and onyx stones ,
and stones to be set for the ephod ,
and for the breastplate .
*
And all who are wise-hearted among you shall come and make all that Jehovah has commanded :
*
the tabernacle ,
its tent ,
and its covering ,
its clasps ,
and its boards ,
its bars ,
its pillars ,
and its bases ;
*
the ark ,
and its staves ;
the mercy-seat ,
and the veil of separation ;
*
the table and its staves ,
and all its utensils ,
and the shewbread ;
*
and the lamp-stand for the light ,
and its utensils ,
and its lamps ,
and the oil for the light ;
*
and the altar of incense ,
and its staves ;
and the anointing-oil ,
and the incense of fragrant drugs ;
and the entrance-curtain at the entrance of the tabernacle ;
*
the altar of burnt-offering ,
and the copper grating for it ,
its staves ,
and all its utensils ;
the laver and its stand ;
*
the hangings of the court ,
its pillars ,
and its bases ,
and the curtains of the gate of the court ;
*
the pegs of the tabernacle ,
and the pegs of the court ,
and their cords ;
*
the garments of service ,
to do service in the sanctuary ,
the holy garments for Aaron the priest ,
and the garments of his sons ,
to serve as priests .
*
And all the assembly of the children of Israel departed from before Moses .
*
And they came ,
every one whose heart moved him ,
and every one whose spirit prompted him ;
they brought Jehovah '
s heave-offering for the work of the tent of meeting ,
and for all its service ,
and for the holy garments .
*
And they came ,
both men and women ;
every one who was of willing heart brought nose-rings ,
and earrings ,
and rings ,
and bracelets ,
all kinds of utensils of gold :
every man that waved a wave-offering of gold to Jehovah .
*
And every man with whom was found blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
and byssus ,
and goats ' [
hair ],
and rams '
skins dyed red ,
and badgers '
skins ,
brought [
them ].
*
All they that offered a heave-offering of silver and copper brought Jehovah '
s heave-offering .
And every one with whom was found acacia-wood for all manner of work of the service ,
brought [
it ].
*
And every woman that was wise-hearted spun with her hands ,
and brought what she had spun :
the blue ,
and the purple ,
and the scarlet ,
and the byssus .
*
And all the women whose heart moved them in wisdom spun goats ' [
hair ].
*
And the principal men brought the onyx stones ,
and the stones to be set ,
for the ephod ,
and for the breastplate ;
*
and the spice ,
and the oil for the light ,
and for the anointing oil ,
and for the incense of fragrant drugs .
*
The children of Israel brought a voluntary offering to Jehovah ,
every man and woman whose heart prompted them to bring for all manner of work ,
which Jehovah ,
by the hand of Moses ,
had commanded to be done .
*
And Moses said to the children of Israel ,
See ,
Jehovah has called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri ,
the son of Hur ,
of the tribe of Judah ,
*
and he has filled him with the spirit of God ,
in wisdom ,
in understanding ,
and in knowledge ,
and in all manner of workmanship ,
*
and to devise artistic things :
to work in gold ,
and in silver ,
and in copper ,
*
and in cutting of stones ,
for setting ,
and in carving of wood ,
to execute all artistic work ;
*
and he has put in his heart to teach ,
he and Aholiab ,
the son of Ahisamach ,
of the tribe of Dan :
*
he has filled them with wisdom of heart ,
to work all manner of work of the engraver ,
and of the artificer ,
and of the embroiderer ,
in blue ,
and in purple ,
in scarlet ,
and in byssus ,
and of the weaver , [
even ]
of them that do every kind of work ,
and of those that devise artistic work
*
Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab ,
and every man that was wise-hearted ,
in whom Jehovah had put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all manner of work of the service of the sanctuary --
according to all that Jehovah had commanded .
*
And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab ,
and every man that was wise-hearted ,
in whose heart God had put wisdom ,
every one whose heart moved him to come to the work to do it .
*
And they took from Moses every heave-offering that the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary ,
to make it .
And they still brought him voluntary offerings morning by morning .
*
And all the wise men that wrought all the work of the sanctuary came ,
every man from his work which they wrought ,
*
and spoke to Moses ,
saying ,
The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work that Jehovah commanded to be done .
*
Then Moses gave commandment ,
and they caused it to be proclaimed through the camp ,
saying ,
Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the heave-offering of the sanctuary !
So the people were restrained from bringing ;
*
for the work they had was sufficient for all the work to do it ,
and it was too much .
*
And every wise-hearted man among those that wrought the work of the tabernacle made ten curtains of twined byssus ,
and blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet : [
with ]
cherubim of artistic work did he make them .
*
The length of one curtain was twenty-eight cubits ,
and the breadth of one curtain four cubits --
one measure for all the curtains .
*
And he coupled five of the curtains one to another ,
and [
the other ]
five curtains coupled he one to another .
*
And he made loops of blue on the edge of one curtain at the edge of the coupling ;
he did likewise in the edge of the outermost curtain in the other coupling .
*
He made fifty loops in one curtain ,
and he made fifty loops at the end of the curtain that was in the other coupling :
the loops were opposite to one another .
*
And he made fifty clasps of gold ,
and coupled the curtains together with the clasps ,
so that the tabernacle became one .
*
And he made curtains of goats ' [
hair ]
for the tent over the tabernacle :
eleven curtains did he make them .
*
The length of one curtain was thirty cubits ,
and four cubits the breadth of one curtain --
one measure for the eleven curtains .
*
And he coupled five of the curtains by themselves ,
and six of the curtains by themselves .
*
And he made fifty loops on the edge of the outermost curtain in the coupling ,
and fifty loops made he on the edge of the curtain in the other coupling .
*
And he made fifty clasps of copper to couple the tent ,
that it might be one .
*
And he made a covering for the tent [
of ]
rams '
skins dyed red ,
and a covering of badgers '
skins above [
that ].
*
And he made the boards for the tabernacle of acacia-wood ,
standing up ;
*
ten cubits the length of the boards ,
and one cubit and a half the breadth of one board ;
*
two tenons in one board ,
connected one with the other :
thus did he make for all the boards of the tabernacle .
*
And he made the boards for the tabernacle :
twenty boards for the south side southward ;
*
and he made forty bases of silver under the twenty boards ,
two bases under one board ,
for its two tenons ,
and two bases under another board for its two tenons .
*
And for the other side of the tabernacle ,
on the side toward the north ,
he made twenty boards ,
*
and their forty bases of silver ,
two bases under one board ,
and two bases under another board .
*
And at the rear of the tabernacle ,
westward ,
he made six boards ;
*
and he made two boards for the corners of the tabernacle at the rear ;
*
and they were joined beneath ,
and were coupled together at the top thereof into one ring :
thus he did to both of them in both the corners ;
*
and there were eight boards ,
and their silver bases :
sixteen bases ,
under every board two bases .
* --
And he made bars of acacia-wood :
five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle ,
*
and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle ,
and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle at the rear ,
westward .
*
And he made the middle bar in the midst of the boards reach from one end to the other .
*
And he overlaid the boards with gold ;
and made their rings of gold [
as ]
receptacles for the bars ;
and overlaid the bars with gold .
*
And he made the veil of blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
and twined byssus :
of artistic work he made it [
with ]
cherubim .
*
And he made four pillars of acacia [-
wood ]
for it ,
and overlaid them with gold ;
their hooks were of gold ;
and he cast for them four bases of silver .
*
And he made a curtain for the entrance of the tent of blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
and twined byssus ,
of embroidery ;
*
and its five pillars with their hooks ;
and he overlaid their capitals and their connecting-rods with gold ;
and their five bases were of copper .
*
And Bezaleel made the ark of acacia-wood ;
two cubits and a half the length thereof ,
and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof ,
and a cubit and a half the height thereof .
*
And he overlaid it with pure gold inside and outside ,
and made a border of gold upon it round about .
*
And he cast for it four rings of gold ,
for its four corners :
two rings on the one side of it ,
and two rings on the other side of it .
*
And he made staves of acacia-wood and overlaid them with gold .
*
And he put the staves into the rings on the sides of the ark ,
to carry the ark .
* --
And he made a mercy-seat of pure gold ;
two cubits and a half the length thereof ,
and one cubit and a half the breadth thereof .
*
And he made two cherubim of gold ;
of beaten work did he make them ,
at the two ends of the mercy-seat ;
*
one cherub at the end of one side ,
and one cherub at the end of the other side ;
out of the mercy-seat he made the two cherubim at the two ends thereof .
*
And the cherubim spread out [
their ]
wings over it ,
covering over with their wings the mercy-seat ;
and their faces were opposite to one another :
the faces of the cherubim were [
turned ]
toward the mercy-seat .
*
And he made the table of acacia-wood ;
two cubits the length thereof ,
and a cubit the breadth thereof ,
and a cubit and a half the height thereof .
*
And he overlaid it with pure gold ,
and made upon it a border of gold round about .
*
And he made for it a margin of a hand-breadth round about ;
and made a border of gold for the margin thereof round about .
*
And he cast for it four rings of gold ,
and put the rings on the four corners that were on the four feet thereof .
*
Close to the margin were the rings ,
as receptacles of the staves to carry the table .
*
And he made the staves of acacia-wood ,
and overlaid them with gold ,
to carry the table .
*
And he made the utensils that were on the table ,
the dishes thereof ,
and the cups thereof ,
and the bowls thereof ,
and the goblets with which to pour out ,
of pure gold .
*
And he made the candlestick of pure gold ; [
of ]
beaten work he made the candlestick :
its base ,
and its shaft ,
its cups ,
its knobs ,
and its flowers were of itself .
*
And six branches went out of the sides thereof --
three branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof ,
and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side thereof ;
* [
there were ]
three cups shaped like almonds in the one branch ,
a knob and a flower ;
and three cups shaped like almonds in the other branch ,
a knob and a flower :
so in the six branches which went out of the candlestick .
*
And in the candlestick were four cups ,
shaped like almonds ,
its knobs ,
and its flowers ;
*
and a knob under two branches thereof ,
and [
again ]
a knob under two branches thereof ,
and [
again ]
a knob under two branches thereof ,
for the six branches which went out of it .
*
Their knobs and their branches were of itself --
all of one beaten work of pure gold .
*
And he made the seven lamps thereof ,
and the snuffers thereof ,
and the snuff-trays thereof ,
of pure gold .
*
Of a talent of pure gold he made it ,
and all its utensils .
*
And he made the altar of incense of acacia-wood ;
a cubit the length thereof ,
and a cubit the breadth thereof ,
square ,
and two cubits the height thereof :
its horns were of itself .
*
And he overlaid it with pure gold ,
the top thereof ,
and the sides thereof round about ,
and the horns thereof ;
and made upon it a border of gold round about .
*
And he made two rings of gold for it under its border ,
by its two corners ,
on the two sides thereof ,
as receptacles for the staves with which to carry it .
*
And he made the staves of acacia-wood ,
and overlaid them with gold .
*
And he made the holy anointing oil ,
and the pure incense of fragrant drugs ,
according to the work of the perfumer .
*
And he made the altar of burnt-offering of acacia-wood ;
five cubits the length thereof ,
and five cubits the breadth thereof ,
square ,
and three cubits the height thereof .
*
And he made its horns on the four corners thereof ;
its horns were of itself ;
and he overlaid it with copper .
*
And he made all the utensils of the altar :
the pots ,
and the shovels ,
and the bowls ,
the forks ,
and the firepans ;
all its utensils made he of copper .
*
And he made for the altar a grating of network of copper under its ledge from beneath ,
to the very middle of it .
*
And he cast four rings for the four corners of the grating of copper ,
as receptacles for the staves .
*
And he made the staves of acacia-wood ,
and overlaid them with copper .
*
And he put the staves into the rings on the sides of the altar ,
with which to carry it .
Hollow with boards did he make it .
*
And he made the laver of copper ,
and its stand of copper ,
of the mirrors of the crowds of women who crowded before the entrance of the tent of meeting .
*
And he made the court .
On the south side southward ,
the hangings of the court were of twined byssus ,
a hundred cubits ;
*
their pillars twenty ,
and their bases twenty ,
of copper ;
the hooks of the pillars and their connecting-rods of silver .
*
And on the north side ,

*
And on the west side ,

*
the hangings on the one wing of fifteen cubits ,

*
and on the other wing ,
on this side as on that side of the gate of the court ,

*
All the hangings of the court round about were of twined byssus ;
*
and the bases of the pillars of copper ,
the hooks of the pillars and their connecting-rods of silver ,
and the overlaying of their capitals of silver ;
and all the pillars of the court were fastened together with [
rods of ]
silver .
* --
And the curtain of the gate of the court was of embroidery of blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
and twined byssus ;
and the length was twenty cubits ,
and the height like the breadth ,
five cubits ,
just as the hangings of the court ;
*
and their pillars four ,
and their bases four ,
of copper ;
their hooks of silver ,
and the overlaying of their capitals and their connecting-rods of silver .
*
And all the pegs for the tabernacle and for the court round about were of copper .
*
These are the things numbered of the tabernacle ,
the tabernacle of the testimony ,
which were counted ,
according to the commandment of Moses ,
by the service of the Levites ,
under the hand of Ithamar ,
son of Aaron the priest .
*
And Bezaleel the son of Uri ,
the son of Hur ,
of the tribe of Judah ,
made all that Jehovah had commanded Moses ;
*
and with him Aholiab ,
son of Ahisamach ,
of the tribe of Dan ,
an engraver and artificer ,
and an embroiderer in blue ,
and in purple ,
and in scarlet ,
and in byssus .
*
All the gold that it took for the work in all the work of the sanctuary --
the gold of the wave-offering ,
was twenty-nine talents ,
and seven hundred and thirty shekels ,
according to the shekel of the sanctuary .
*
And the silver of them that were numbered of the assembly was a hundred talents ,
and a thousand seven hundred and seventy-five shekels ,
according to the shekel of the sanctuary :
*
a bekah the head --
half a shekel ,
according to the shekel of the sanctuary ,
for every one that passed the numbering from twenty years old and upward , [
of ]
the six hundred and three thousand five hundred and fifty .
*
And there were a hundred talents of silver for casting the bases of the sanctuary ,
and the bases of the veil ;
a hundred bases of a hundred talents ,
a talent for a base .
*
And of the thousand seven hundred and seventy-five [
shekels ]
he made the hooks for the pillars ,
and overlaid their capitals ,
and fastened them [
with rods ].
*
And the copper of the wave-offering was seventy talents ,
and two thousand four hundred shekels .
*
And he made with it the bases for the entrance of the tent of meeting ,
and the copper altar ,
and the copper grating for it ,
and all the utensils of the altar .
*
And the bases of the court round about ,
and the bases of the gate of the court ,
and all the pegs of the tabernacle ,
and all the pegs of the court round about .
*
And of the blue and purple and scarlet they made garments of service ,
for service in the sanctuary ,
and made the holy garments for Aaron ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And he made the ephod of gold ,
blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
and twined byssus .
*
And they beat the gold into thin plates ,
and cut it [
into ]
wires ,
to work it artistically into the blue ,
and into the purple ,
and into the scarlet ,
and into the byssus .
*
They made shoulder-pieces for it ,
joining it :
at its two ends was it joined together .
*
And the girdle of his ephod ,
which was on it ,
was of the same ,
according to its work ,
of gold ,
blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
and twined byssus ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And they wrought the onyx stones mounted in enclosures of gold ,
engraved with the engravings of a seal ,
according to the names of the sons of Israel .
*
And he put them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod , [
as ]
stones of memorial for the children of Israel ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And he made the breastplate of artistic work ,
like the work of the ephod ,
of gold ,
blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
and twined byssus .
*
It was square ;
double did they make the breastplate ,
a span the length thereof ,
and a span the breadth thereof ,
doubled .
*
And they set in it four rows of stones : [
one ]
row ,
a sardoin ,
a topaz ,
and an emerald --
the first row ;
*
and the second row ,
a carbuncle ,
a sapphire ,
and a diamond ;
*
and the third row ,
an opal ,
an agate ,
and an amethyst ;
*
and the fourth row ,
a chrysolite ,
an onyx ,
and a jasper ;
mounted in enclosures of gold in their settings .
*
And the stones were according to the names of the children of Israel ,
twelve ,
according to their names ,
engraved as a seal ,
every one according to his name ,
for the twelve tribes .
*
And they made on the breastplate chains of laced work of wreathen work ,
of pure gold .
*
And they made two settings of gold ,
and two gold rings ,
and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate .
*
And they put the two wreathen [
cords ]
of gold in the two rings on the ends of the breastplate ;
*
and the two ends of the two wreathen [
cords ]
they fastened to the two settings ,
and put them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod ,
on the front thereof .
*
And they made two rings of gold ,
and put [
them ]
on the two ends of the breastplate ,
on the border thereof ,
which faceth the ephod inwards .
*
And they made two rings of gold ,
and put them upon the two shoulder-pieces of the ephod underneath ,
to the front thereof ,
just by the coupling thereof ,
above the girdle of the ephod .
*
And they bound the breastplate with its rings to the rings of the ephod with lace of blue ,
that it might be above the girdle of the ephod ,
and that the breastplate might not be loosed from the ephod ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And he made the cloak of the ephod of woven work ,
all of blue ;
*
and the opening of the cloak in its middle ,
as the opening of a coat of mail ;
a binding was round about the opening ,
that it should not rend .
*
And they made on the skirts of the cloak pomegranates of blue and purple and scarlet ,
twined .
*
And they made bells of pure gold ,
and put the bells between the pomegranates ,
in the skirts of the cloak ,
round about ,
between the pomegranates :
*
a bell and a pomegranate ,
a bell and a pomegranate ,
in the skirts of the cloak round about ,
for service ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And they made the vests of byssus of woven work ,
for Aaron ,
and for his sons ;
*
and the turban of byssus ;
and the ornamental caps ,
of byssus ;
and the linen trousers ,
of twined byssus ;
*
and the girdle ,
of twined byssus ,
and blue ,
and purple ,
and scarlet ,
of embroidery ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And they made the thin plate ,
the holy diadem ,
of pure gold ,
and wrote on it with the writing of the engravings of a seal ,
Holiness to Jehovah !
*
And they fastened to it a lace of blue ,
to fasten [
it ]
on the turban above ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And all the labour of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting was ended ;
and the children of Israel had done [
it ]
according to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses --
so had they done [
it ].
*
And they brought the tabernacle to Moses --
the tent ,
and all its utensils ,
its clasps ,
its boards ,
its bars ,
and its pillars ,
and its bases ;
*
and the covering of rams '
skins dyed red ,
and the covering of badgers '
skins ,
and the veil of separation ;
*
the ark of the testimony ,
and its staves ,
and the mercy-seat ;
*
the table ,
all its utensils ,
and the shewbread ;
*
the pure candlestick ,
its lamps ,
the lamps set in order ,
and all its utensils ,
and the oil for the light ;
*
and the golden altar ,
and the anointing oil ,
and the incense of fragrant drugs ;
and the curtain for the entrance of the tent ;
*
the copper altar ,
and the copper grating that was for it ,
its staves and all its utensils ;
the laver and its stand ;
*
the hangings of the court ,
its pillars ,
and its bases ;
and the curtain for the gate of the court ,
its cords ,
and its pegs ;
and all the vessel '
s of service of the tabernacle ,
for the tent of meeting ;
*
the garments of service ,
for service in the sanctuary ;
the holy garments for Aaron the priest ,
and his sons '
garments ,
to serve as priests .
*
According to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses ,
so had the children of Israel done all the labour .
*
And Moses saw all the work ,
and behold ,
they had done it as Jehovah had commanded --
so had they done [
it ];
and Moses blessed them .
*
And Jehovah spoke to Moses ,
saying ,
*
On the day of the first month ,
on the first of the month ,
shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of meeting .
*
And thou shalt put in it the ark of the testimony ,
and shalt cover the ark with the veil .
*
And thou shalt bring in the table ,
and set in order the things that are to be set in order upon it .
And thou shalt bring in the candlestick and light its lamps .
*
And thou shalt set the golden altar for the incense before the ark of the testimony ;
and hang up the curtain of the entrance to the tabernacle .
*
And thou shalt set the altar of burnt-offering before the entrance of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting .
*
And thou shalt set the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar ,
and shalt put water in it .
*
And thou shalt fix the court round about ,
and hang up the curtain at the gate of the court .
*
And thou shalt take the anointing oil ,
and anoint the tabernacle ,
and all that is in it ,
and shalt hallow it ,
and all its utensils ;
and it shall be holy .
*
And thou shalt anoint the altar of burnt-offering ,
and all its utensils ;
and thou shalt hallow the altar ,
and the altar shall be most holy .
*
And thou shalt anoint the laver and its stand ,
and hallow it .
*
And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons near ,
at the entrance of the tent of meeting ,
and bathe them with water .
*
And thou shalt clothe Aaron with the holy garments ,
and anoint him ,
and hallow him ,
that he may serve me as priest .
*
And thou shalt bring his sons near ,
and clothe them with vests .
*
And thou shalt anoint them ,
as thou didst anoint their father ,
that they may serve me as priests .
And their anointing shall be to them an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations .
*
And Moses did so :
as Jehovah had commanded him ,
so did he .
*
And it came to pass in the first month in the second year ,
on the first of the month ,
that the tabernacle was set up .
*
And Moses set up the tabernacle ,
and put in its bases ,
and fixed its boards ,
and put in its bars ,
and set up its pillars .
*
And he spread the tent over the tabernacle ,
and put the covering of the tent above over it ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And he took and put the testimony into the ark ,
and put the staves in the ark ,
and put the mercy-seat above on the ark .
*
And he brought the ark into the tabernacle ,
and hung up the veil of separation ,
and covered the ark of the testimony ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And he put the table in the tent of meeting ,
on the side of the tabernacle northward ,
outside the veil ,
*
and arranged the bread in order upon it before Jehovah ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And he put the candlestick in the tent of meeting ,
opposite to the table ,
on the side of the tabernacle southward .
*
And he lighted the lamps before Jehovah ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And he put the golden altar in the tent of meeting before the veil .
*
And he burnt on it fragrant incense ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And he hung up the curtain of the entrance to the tabernacle .
*
And he put the altar of burnt-offering at the entrance to the tabernacle of the tent of meeting ,
and offered on it the burnt-offering and the oblation ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And he set the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar ,
and put water in it for washing .
*
And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet out of it :
*
when they went into the tent of meeting ,
and when they drew near to the altar ,
they washed ;
as Jehovah had commanded Moses .
*
And he set up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar ,
and hung up the curtain of the gate of the court .
And so Moses finished the work .
*
And the cloud covered the tent of meeting ,
and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle .
*
And Moses could not enter into the tent of meeting ,
for the cloud abode on it ,
and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle .
*
And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle ,
the children of Israel journeyed in all their journeys .
*
And if the cloud were not taken up ,
then they did not journey until the day that it was taken up .
*
For the cloud of Jehovah was on the tabernacle by day ,
and fire was in it by night ,
before the eyes of all the house of Israel ,
throughout all their journeys .
