Exodus 40:9-31

⁹And when thou hast taken the oil of anointing, thou shalt anoint the tabernacle, with his vessels, (or thou shalt anoint the Tabernacle, and all its vessels), (so) that those be hallowed;

¹⁰the altar of burnt sacrifice, and all the vessels thereof;

¹¹the washing vessel, with his foundament. Thou shalt anoint all things with the oil of anointing, that they be holy of holy things. (and the washing vessel, and its foundation, or its base. Thou shalt anoint all these things with the anointing oil, so that they be consecrated, and most holy.)

¹²And thou shalt present Aaron and his sons to the door of the tabernacle of witnessing (or And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the Tabernacle of the Witnessing); and, when they be washed with water,

¹³thou shalt clothe them in (the) holy clothes, that they minister to me (or so that they can serve as my priests),

¹⁴(See verse 13 above.)

¹⁵and (so) that the anointing of them profit into (an) everlasting priesthood.

¹⁶And Moses did all things that the Lord commanded.

¹⁷Therefore in the first month of the second year, in the first day of the month, the tabernacle was set. (And so in the first month of the second year, on the first day of the month, the Tabernacle was set up.)

¹⁸And Moses areared it, and he set (up) the boards, and bases, and bars, and he ordained the pillars;

¹⁹and he stretched out the roof upon the tabernacle, and he put a covering above (it), as the Lord commanded. (and he stretched out the tent over the Tabernacle, and he put the coverings over the tent, as the Lord commanded.)

²⁰He put also the witnessing, that is, the tables of the law, in the ark, and he set the bars within (the rings), and God’s answering place above (the ark). (And he put the Witnessing, that is, the tablets of the Law, into the Ark, that is, the Box for the tablets, and he set the bars within the rings, and he put the propitiatory, that is, the mercy seat, or the lid, on the Box.)

²¹And when he had brought the ark into the tabernacle, he hanged a veil before it, that he should fulfill the commandment of the Lord. (And when he had brought the Ark into the Tabernacle, he hung up the Veil in front of it, as the Lord commanded him.)

²²He setted also the board in the tabernacle of witnessing, at the north coast, without the veil, (And he put the table in the Tabernacle of the Witnessing, on the north side of the Tabernacle, in front of the Veil,)

²³and he ordained the loaves of setting forth (on the table), before (the Lord), as the Lord commanded to Moses. (and he placed the loaves of proposition, or the showbread, on the table, before the Lord, as the Lord commanded to Moses.)

²⁴He set also the candlestick in the tabernacle of witnessing, even against the board, in the south side, (And he set the lampstand in the Tabernacle of the Witnessing, opposite the table, on the south side of the Tabernacle,)

²⁵and he set the lanterns by order, by the commandment of the Lord. (and he set up the lanterns before the Lord, as the Lord commanded him.)

²⁶He putted also the golden altar under the roof of witnessing, that is, of the tabernacle, against the veil, (And he put the gold altar in the Tent of the Witnessing, that is, in the Tabernacle, in front of the Veil,)

²⁷and he burnt thereon incense of sweet smelling spiceries, as the Lord commanded to Moses.

²⁸He set also a curtain in the entering of the tabernacle, (And he hung up the curtain at the entrance to the Tabernacle,)

²⁹and (set) the altar of burnt sacrifice in the porch (of the tabernacle) of witnessing, and he offered there(on) burnt sacrifice, and sacrifices, as the Lord commanded. (and put the altar of burnt sacrifice by the entrance to the Tabernacle of the Witnessing, and then he offered on it the burnt sacrifice, and the sacrifices, as the Lord commanded him.)

³⁰Also he ordained the washing vessel, betwixt the tabernacle of witnessing and the altar, and filled it with water. (And he put the washing vessel between the Tabernacle of the Witnessing and the altar, and filled it with water.)

³¹And Moses, and Aaron, and his sons, washed their hands and their feet therein,
