the table, all its vessels, the show bread,


the pure lampstand, its lamps, even the lamps to be set in order, all its vessels, the oil for the light,


the golden altar, the anointing oil, the sweet incense, the screen for the door of the Tent,


the bronze altar, its grating of brass, its poles, all of its vessels, the basin and its base,


the hangings of the court, its pillars, its sockets, the screen for the gate of the court, its cords, its pins, all the instruments of the service of the tabernacle, for the Tent of Meeting,


the finely worked garments for ministering in the holy place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest’s office.


According to all that Yahweh commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did all the work.


Moses saw all the work, and behold, they had done it as Yahweh had commanded, even so had they done it: and Moses blessed them.


Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,


“On the first day of the first month you shall raise up the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting.


You shall put the ark of the testimony in it, and you shall screen the ark with the veil.


You shall bring in the table, and set in order the things that are on it. You shall bring in the lampstand, and light its lamps.


You shall set the golden altar for incense before the ark of the testimony, and put the screen of the door to the tabernacle.


“You shall set the altar of burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting.


You shall set the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and shall put water therein.


You shall set up the court around it, and hang up the screen of the gate of the court.


“You shall take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that is in it, and shall make it holy, and all its furniture: and it will be holy.


You shall anoint the altar of burnt offering, with all its vessels, and sanctify the altar: and the altar will be most holy.


You shall anoint the basin and its base, and sanctify it.


“You shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and shall wash them with water.


You shall put on Aaron the holy garments; and you shall anoint him, and sanctify him, that he may minister to me in the priest’s office.


You shall bring his sons, and put coats on them.


You shall anoint them, as you anointed their father, that they may minister to me in the priest’s office. Their anointing shall be to them for an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.”


Moses did so. According to all that Yahweh commanded him, so he did.


It happened in the first month in the second year, on the first day of the month, that the tabernacle was raised up.


Moses raised up the tabernacle, and laid its sockets, and set up its boards, and put in its bars, and raised up its pillars.


He spread the covering over the tent, and put the roof of the tabernacle above on it, as Yahweh commanded Moses.


He took and put the testimony into the ark, and set the poles on the ark, and put the mercy seat above on the ark.


He brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the veil of the screen, and screened the ark of the testimony, as Yahweh commanded Moses.


He put the table in the Tent of Meeting, on the side of the tabernacle northward, outside of the veil.


He set the bread in order on it before Yahweh, as Yahweh commanded Moses.


He put the lampstand in the Tent of Meeting, opposite the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.


He lit the lamps before Yahweh, as Yahweh commanded Moses.


He put the golden altar in the Tent of Meeting before the veil;


and he burnt incense of sweet spices on it, as Yahweh commanded Moses.


He put up the screen of the door to the tabernacle.


He set the altar of burnt offering at the door of the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting, and offered on it the burnt offering and the meal offering, as Yahweh commanded Moses.


He set the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and put water therein, with which to wash.


Moses, Aaron, and his sons washed their hands and their feet there.


When they went into the Tent of Meeting, and when they came near to the altar, they washed, as Yahweh commanded Moses.


He raised up the court around the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the screen of the gate of the court. So Moses finished the work.


Then the cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of Yahweh filled the tabernacle.


Moses wasn’t able to enter into the Tent of Meeting, because the cloud stayed on it, and Yahweh’s glory filled the tabernacle.


When the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward, throughout all their journeys;


but if the cloud wasn’t taken up, then they didn’t travel until the day that it was taken up.


For the cloud of Yahweh was on the tabernacle by day, and there was fire in the cloud by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.


:

Yahweh called to Moses, and spoke to him out of the Tent of Meeting, saying,


:

“Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them, ‘When anyone of you offers an offering to Yahweh, you shall offer your offering of the livestock, from the herd and from the flock.


:

“‘If his offering is a burnt offering from the herd, he shall offer a male without blemish. He shall offer it at the door of the Tent of Meeting, that he may be accepted before Yahweh.


:

He shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.


:

He shall kill the bull before Yahweh. Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall present the blood and sprinkle the blood around on the altar that is at the door of the Tent of Meeting.


:

He shall flay the burnt offering, and cut it into pieces.


:

The sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire on the altar, and lay wood in order on the fire;


:

and Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall lay the pieces, the head, and the fat in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar;


:

but its innards and its legs he shall wash with water. The priest shall burn the whole on the altar, for a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.


:

“‘If his offering is from the flock, from the sheep, or from the goats, for a burnt offering, he shall offer a male without blemish.


:

He shall kill it on the north side of the altar before Yahweh. Aaron’s sons, the priests, shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar.


:

He shall cut it into its pieces, with its head and its fat. The priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire which is on the altar,


:

but the innards and the legs he shall wash with water. The priest shall offer the whole, and burn it on the altar. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.


:

“‘If his offering to Yahweh is a burnt offering of birds, then he shall offer his offering of turtledoves, or of young pigeons.


:

The priest shall bring it to the altar, and wring off its head, and burn it on the altar; and its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar;


:

and he shall take away its crop with its filth, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, in the place of the ashes.


:

He shall tear it by its wings, but shall not divide it apart. The priest shall burn it on the altar, on the wood that is on the fire. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.


:

“‘When anyone offers an offering of a meal offering to Yahweh, his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil on it, and put frankincense on it.


:

He shall bring it to Aaron’s sons, the priests; and he shall take his handful of its fine flour, and of its oil, with all its frankincense; and the priest shall burn its memorial on the altar, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.


:

That which is left of the meal offering shall be Aaron’s and his sons’. It is a most holy thing of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire.


:

“‘When you offer an offering of a meal offering baked in the oven, it shall be unleavened cakes of fine flour mixed with oil, or unleavened wafers anointed with oil.


:

If your offering is a meal offering of the griddle, it shall be of unleavened fine flour, mixed with oil.


:

You shall cut it in pieces, and pour oil on it. It is a meal offering.


:

If your offering is a meal offering of the pan, it shall be made of fine flour with oil.


:

You shall bring the meal offering that is made of these things to Yahweh: and it shall be presented to the priest, and he shall bring it to the altar.


:

The priest shall take from the meal offering its memorial, and shall burn it on the altar, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.


:

That which is left of the meal offering shall be Aaron’s and his sons’. It is a thing most holy of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire.


:

“‘No meal offering, which you shall offer to Yahweh, shall be made with yeast; for you shall burn no yeast, nor any honey, as an offering made by fire to Yahweh.


:

As an offering of firstfruits you shall offer them to Yahweh: but they shall not ascend for a pleasant aroma on the altar.


:

Every offering of your meal offering you shall season with salt; neither shall you allow the salt of the covenant of your God to be lacking from your meal offering. With all your offerings you shall offer salt.


:

“‘If you offer a meal offering of first fruits to Yahweh, you shall offer for the meal offering of your first fruits grain in the ear parched with fire, bruised grain of the fresh ear.


:

You shall put oil on it, and lay frankincense on it: it is a meal offering.


:

The priest shall burn as its memorial, part of its bruised grain, and part of its oil, along with all its frankincense: it is an offering made by fire to Yahweh.


:

“‘If his offering is a sacrifice of peace offerings; if he offers it from the herd, whether male or female, he shall offer it without blemish before Yahweh.


:

He shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it at the door of the Tent of Meeting: and Aaron’s sons, the priests shall sprinkle the blood around on the altar.


:

He shall offer of the sacrifice of peace offerings an offering made by fire to Yahweh; the fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards,


:

and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away.


:

Aaron’s sons shall burn it on the altar on the burnt offering, which is on the wood that is on the fire: it is an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.


:

“‘If his offering for a sacrifice of peace offerings to Yahweh is from the flock; male or female, he shall offer it without blemish.


:

If he offers a lamb for his offering, then he shall offer it before Yahweh;


:

and he shall lay his hand on the head of his offering, and kill it before the Tent of Meeting: and Aaron’s sons shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar.


:

He shall offer from the sacrifice of peace offerings an offering made by fire to Yahweh; its fat, the entire tail fat, he shall take away close to the backbone; and the fat that covers the inwards, and all the fat that is on the inwards,


:

and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away.


:

The priest shall burn it on the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire to Yahweh.


:

“‘If his offering is a goat, then he shall offer it before Yahweh:


:

and he shall lay his hand on its head, and kill it before the Tent of Meeting; and the sons of Aaron shall sprinkle its blood around on the altar.


:

He shall offer from it as his offering, an offering made by fire to Yahweh; the fat that covers the innards, and all the fat that is on the innards,


:

and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the cover on the liver, with the kidneys, he shall take away.


:

The priest shall burn them on the altar: it is the food of the offering made by fire, for a pleasant aroma; all the fat is Yahweh’s.


:

“‘It shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings, that you shall eat neither fat nor blood.’”


:

Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,


:

“Speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘If anyone sins unintentionally, in any of the things which Yahweh has commanded not to be done, and does any one of them:


:

if the anointed priest sins so as to bring guilt on the people, then let him offer for his sin, which he has sinned, a young bull without blemish to Yahweh for a sin offering.


:

He shall bring the bull to the door of the Tent of Meeting before Yahweh; and he shall lay his hand on the head of the bull, and kill the bull before Yahweh.
