Exodus:4:18-6
Seeker Overlay ON
*
So Moses went and returned unto Jethro his father-in-law and said to him Let me go ,
I pray thee ,
and return unto my brethren who are in Egypt ,
that I my see whether they are yet alive .
And Jethro said to Moses :
Go and prosper .
*
Then said Yahweh unto Moses in Midian ,
Go ,
return to Egypt ,
for all the men are dead who were seeking thy life .
*
So Moses took his wife and his sons ,
and caused them to ride upon the ass ,
and he returned to the land of Egypt ,
and Moses took the staff of God in his hand .
*
And Yahweh said unto Moses ,
When thou goest to return to Egypt ,
see as touching all the wonders which I have put in thy hand ,
that thou do them before Pharaohbut ,
I ,
will let his heart wax bold ,
and he will not suffer the people to go .
*
Then shalt thou say unto Pharaoh ,
Thus ,
saith Yahweh My sonmy firstborn ,
is Israel ;
*
Therefore I say unto thee ,
Let my son go ,
that he may serve me ,
But if thou refuse to let him go ,
behold ,
I ,
am going to slay ,
thy son ,
thy firstborn .
*
And it came to pass ,
on the way ,
in the resting-place for the night ,
that Yahweh fell upon him ,
and sought to kill him .
*
So Zipporah took a sharp stone and cut off the foreskin of her son ,
and cast it down at his feet ,
and said Surely ,
a bridegroom by rites of blood ,
art thou to me !
*
So he let him go ,
Then ,
it was that she said ,
A bridegroom by rites of bloodwith regard to the rites of circumcision .
*
And Yahweh said unto Aaron ,
Go thy way to meet Moses ,
towards the desert .
So he went his way ,
and fell in with him in the mountain of God and kissed him .
*
And Moses told Aaron ,
all the words of Yahweh wherewith he had sent him ,
and all the signs wherewith he had charged him .
*
So Moses and Aaron went their way ,
and gathered together all the elders of the sons of Israel .
*
And Aaron spake all the words which Yahweh had spoken unto Moses ,
and did the signs before the eyes of the people ,
*
And the people believed ,
and when they heard that Yahweh had concerned himself for the sons of Israel ,
and that he had looked upon their humiliation ,
then bent they their heads and bowed themselves down .
*
Then spake Yahweh unto Moses ,
saying
*
On the first day of the month ,
in the first month ,
shalt thou rear the habitation ,
of the tent of meeting ;
*
and thou shalt put therein ,
the ark of the testimony ,
and shalt screen the ark with the veil ;
*
and thou shalt bring in the table ,
and set in order what is to be arranged thereupon ,
and thou shalt bring in the lampstand ,
and mount the lamps thereof ;
*
and thou shalt place the altar of gold for incense ,
before the ark of the testimony ,
and put up the screen for the opening of the habitation ;
*
and thou shalt place the altar for the ascending-sacrifice ,
before the opening of the habitation of the tent of meeting ;
*
and thou shalt place the laver between the tent of meeting ,
and the altar ,
and shalt put therein water ,
*
And thou shalt put up the court round about ,
and hang up the screen of the gate of the court .
*
And thou shalt take the oil of anointing ,
and anoint the habitation and all that is therein ,
and shalt hallow it .
and all the furniture thereof so shall it be holy .
*
And thou shalt anoint the altar of ascending sacrifice ,
and all its utensils ,
and hallow the altar ,
so shall the altar be most holy :
*
and thou shalt anoint the laver and its stand ,
and shalt hallow it .
*
And thou shalt bring near Aaron and his sons ,
unto the opening of the teat of meeting ,
and shalt bathe them in the water ;
*
and thou shalt clothe Aaron with the holy garments ,
and shalt anoint him and hallow him so shall he minister as priest unto me .
*
His sons also ,
shalt thou bring near ,
and shalt clothe them with tunics ;
*
and shalt anoint them as thou didst anoint their father ,
and they shall minister as priests unto me ,
so shall their anointing remain to them for an age-abiding priesthood ,
to their generations .
*
And Moses did ,
according to all that Yahweh had commanded him ,
so did he .
*
Thus came it to pass ,
in the first month ,
in the second year ,
on the first of the month ,
that the habitation was reared .
*
Yea Moses reared the habitation ,
and placed its sockets ,
and fixed its boards ,
and fastened its bars ,
and reared its pillar
*
Then spread he abroad the tent upon the habitation ,
and put the covering of the tent upon it ,
above ,
As Yahweh commanded Moses .
*
And he took and placed the testimony within the ark ,
and put the staves upon the ark ,
and placed the propitiatory upon the ark ,
above ;
*
and brought in the ark into the habitation ,
and put up the screening veil ,
and screened over the ark of the testimony ,
As Yahweh commanded Moses .
*
And he placed the table in the tent of meeting ,
on the side of the habitation northward ,
outside the veil ;
*
and set in order thereupon the arrangement of bread before Yahweh ,
As Yahweh commanded Moses .
*
And he put the lampstand ,
in the tent of meeting ,
over against the table ,
on the side of the habitation southward ;
*
and mounted the lamps before Yahweh ,
As Yahweh commanded Moses .
*
And he put the altar of gold in the tent of meeting ,
before the veil ;
*
and burned thereupon the fragrant incense ,
As Yahweh commanded Moses .
*
And he put up the screen of the entrance pertaining to the habitation ;
*
and ,
the altar of ascending-sacrifice ,
put he at the entrance of the habitation of the tent of meeting ,
and he caused to ascend thereupon the ascending-sacrifice ,
and the meal-offering ,
As Yahweh commanded Moses .
*
And he put the laver ,
between the tent of meeting ,
and the altar ,
and put therein water for bathing ;
*
and Moses and Aaron and his sons thenceforth bathed thereat ,
their hands and their feet ;
*
when they were entering into the tent of meeting ,
and when they were drawing near unto the altar ,
then used they to bathe ,
As Yahweh commanded Moses .
*
And he reared the court round about to the habitation and to the altar ,
and put up the screen of the gate of the court ,
and Moses finished the work .
*
Then did the cloud cover the tent of meeting ,
and ,
the glory of Yahweh ,
filled the habitation ;
*
and Moses was not able to enter into the tent of meeting ,
because the cloud had made its habitation thereupon ,
and the glory of Yahweh ,
filled the habitation .
*
And whensoever the cloud ascended from off the habitation ,
then did the sons of Israel set forward ,
in all their journeyings ;
*
but if the cloud did not ascend ,
then did they not set forwarduntil the day when it did ascend .
*
For ,
the cloud of Yahweh ,
was upon the habitation by day ,
and ,
a fire ,
came to be by night therein ,
in the sight of all the house of Israel in all their journeyings .
