“On the first… day of the first month you are to set up the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting.
בְּאֶחָ֣ד לַחֹ֑דֶשׁ בְּיוֹם־ הָרִאשׁ֖וֹן הַחֹ֥דֶשׁ תָּקִ֕ים אֶת־ מִשְׁכַּ֖ן אֹ֥הֶל מוֹעֵֽד׃ bə·’e·ḥāḏ la·ḥō·ḏeš bə·yō·wm- hā·ri·šō·wn ha·ḥō·ḏeš tā·qîm ’eṯ- miš·kan ’ō·hel mō·w·‘êḏ — WLC · 2

Place the gold altar of incense in front of the ark of the Testimony, and hang the curtain at the entrance to the tabernacle.
וְנָתַתָּ֞ה אֶת־ הַזָּהָב֙ מִזְבַּ֤ח לִקְטֹ֔רֶת לִפְנֵ֖י אֲר֣וֹן הָעֵדֻ֑ת וְשַׂמְתָּ֛ אֶת־ מָסַ֥ךְ הַפֶּ֖תַח לַמִּשְׁכָּֽן׃ wə·nā·ṯat·tāh ’eṯ- haz·zā·hāḇ miz·baḥ liq·ṭō·reṯ lip̄·nê ’ă·rō·wn hā·‘ê·ḏuṯ wə·śam·tā ’eṯ- mā·saḵ hap·pe·ṯaḥ lam·miš·kān — WLC · 5

16
Moses did everything just as [[YHWH|the LORD]] -… had commanded him.

καὶ ἔστησεν σκηνήν, καὶ ἐπέθηκεν τὰς κεφαλίδας καὶ διενέβαλεν τοὺς μοχλοὺς καὶ ἔστησεν τοὺς οτύλους· — LXX Swete · 16
17
So the tabernacle was set up on the first day of the first month of the second year.
וַיְהִ֞י הַמִּשְׁכָּֽן׃ הוּקַ֖ם בְּאֶחָ֣ד לַחֹ֑דֶשׁ הָרִאשׁ֛וֹן בַּחֹ֧דֶשׁ הַשֵּׁנִ֖ית בַּשָּׁנָ֥ה way·hî ham·miš·kān hū·qam bə·’e·ḥāḏ la·ḥō·ḏeš hā·ri·šō·wn ba·ḥō·ḏeš haš·šê·nîṯ baš·šā·nāh — WLC · 17

18
When Moses set up the tabernacle, he laid its bases, positioned its frames, inserted its crossbars, and set up its posts.
מֹשֶׁ֜ה אֶת־ וַיָּ֨קֶם הַמִּשְׁכָּ֗ן וַיִּתֵּן֙ אֶת־ אֲדָנָ֔יו וַיָּ֙שֶׂם֙ אֶת־ קְרָשָׁ֔יו וַיִּתֵּ֖ן אֶת־ בְּרִיחָ֑יו וַיָּ֖קֶם אֶת־ עַמּוּדָֽיו׃ mō·šeh ’eṯ- way·yā·qem ham·miš·kān way·yit·tên ’eṯ- ’ă·ḏā·nāw way·yā·śem ’eṯ- qə·rā·šāw way·yit·tên ’eṯ- bə·rî·ḥāw way·yā·qem ’eṯ- ‘am·mū·ḏāw — WLC · 18
Καὶ τὰ μαρτύρια ἐνέβαλεν εἰς τὴν κιβωτόν, καὶ ὑπέθηκεν τοὺς διωστῆρας ὑπὸ τὴν κιβωτόν, — LXX Swete · 18
19
Then he spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering over the tent…, just as [[YHWH|the LORD]] had commanded [him].
וַיִּפְרֹ֤שׂ אֶת־ הָאֹ֙הֶל֙ עַל־ הַמִּשְׁכָּ֔ן וַיָּ֜שֶׂם אֶת־ מִכְסֵ֥ה הָאֹ֛הֶל עָלָ֖יו מִלְמָ֑עְלָה כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ צִוָּ֥ה מֹשֶֽׁה׃ס way·yip̄·rōś ’eṯ- hā·’ō·hel ‘al- ham·miš·kān way·yā·śem ’eṯ- miḵ·sêh hā·’ō·hel ‘ā·lāw mil·mā·‘ə·lāh ka·’ă·šer Yah·weh ’eṯ- ṣiw·wāh mō·šeh — WLC · 19

20
Moses took the Testimony and placed it in the ark, attaching the poles to the ark; and he set the mercy seat atop… the ark.
וַיִּקַּ֞ח הָעֵדֻת֙ וַיִּתֵּ֤ן אֶת־ אֶל־ הָ֣אָרֹ֔ן וַיָּ֥שֶׂם אֶת־ הַבַּדִּ֖ים עַל־ הָאָרֹ֑ן וַיִּתֵּ֧ן אֶת־ הַכַּפֹּ֛רֶת עַל־ מִלְמָֽעְלָה׃ הָאָרֹ֖ן way·yiq·qaḥ hā·‘ê·ḏuṯ way·yit·tên ’eṯ- ’el- hā·’ā·rōn way·yā·śem ’eṯ- hab·bad·dîm ‘al- hā·’ā·rōn way·yit·tên ’eṯ- hak·kap·pō·reṯ ‘al- mil·mā·‘ə·lāh hā·’ā·rōn — WLC · 20

21
Then he brought the ark into the tabernacle, put up the veil for the screen, and shielded off the ark of the Testimony, just as [[YHWH|the LORD]] had commanded him.
וַיָּבֵ֣א אֶת־ הָאָרֹן֮ אֶל־ הַמִּשְׁכָּן֒ וַיָּ֗שֶׂם אֵ֚ת פָּרֹ֣כֶת הַמָּסָ֔ךְ וַיָּ֕סֶךְ עַ֖ל אֲר֣וֹן הָעֵד֑וּת כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ צִוָּ֥ה מֹשֶֽׁה׃ס way·yā·ḇê ’eṯ- hā·’ā·rōn ’el- ham·miš·kān way·yā·śem ’êṯ pā·rō·ḵeṯ ham·mā·sāḵ way·yā·seḵ ‘al ’ă·rō·wn hā·‘ê·ḏūṯ ka·’ă·šer Yah·weh ’eṯ- ṣiw·wāh mō·šeh — WLC · 21
καὶ προέθηκεν ἐπ’ αὐτῆς ἄρτους τῆς προθέσεως ἔναντι κυρίου, ὅν τρόπον συνέταξεν Κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ. — LXX Swete · 21
22
Moses placed the table in the Tent of Meeting on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil.
וַיִּתֵּ֤ן אֶת־ הַשֻּׁלְחָן֙ בְּאֹ֣הֶל מוֹעֵ֔ד עַ֛ל צָפֹ֑נָה יֶ֥רֶךְ הַמִּשְׁכָּ֖ן מִח֖וּץ לַפָּרֹֽכֶת׃ way·yit·tên ’eṯ- haš·šul·ḥān bə·’ō·hel mō·w·‘êḏ ‘al ṣā·p̄ō·nāh ye·reḵ ham·miš·kān mi·ḥūṣ lap·pā·rō·ḵeṯ — WLC · 22
καὶ ἔθηκεν τὴν λυχνίαν εἰς τὴν σκηνὴν τοῦ μαρτυρίου, εἰς τὸ κλίτος τῆς σκηνῆς τὸ πρὸς νότον, — LXX Swete · 22
23
He arranged the bread on it… before [[YHWH|the LORD]], just as [[YHWH|the LORD]] had commanded him.
וַיַּעֲרֹ֥ךְ לֶ֖חֶם עָלָ֛יו עֵ֥רֶךְ לִפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ צִוָּ֥ה מֹשֶֽׁה׃ס way·ya·‘ă·rōḵ le·ḥem ‘ā·lāw ‘ê·reḵ lip̄·nê Yah·weh ka·’ă·šer Yah·weh ’eṯ- ṣiw·wāh mō·šeh — WLC · 23
καὶ ἐπέθηκεν τοὺς λύχνους αὐτῆς ἔναντι κυρίου, ὃν τρόπον συνέταξεν κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ. — LXX Swete · 23
24
He also placed the lampstand in the Tent of Meeting opposite the table on the south side of the tabernacle
וַיָּ֤שֶׂם אֶת־ הַמְּנֹרָה֙ בְּאֹ֣הֶל מוֹעֵ֔ד נֹ֖כַח הַשֻּׁלְחָ֑ן עַ֛ל נֶֽגְבָּה׃ יֶ֥רֶךְ הַמִּשְׁכָּ֖ן way·yā·śem ’eṯ- ham·mə·nō·rāh bə·’ō·hel mō·w·‘êḏ nō·ḵaḥ haš·šul·ḥān ‘al neḡ·bāh ye·reḵ ham·miš·kān — WLC · 24
καὶ ἔθηκεν τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὸ χρυσοῦν ἐν τῇ σκηνῇ τοῦ μαρτυρίου ἀπέναντι τοῦ καταπετάσματος, — LXX Swete · 24
25
and set up the lamps before [[YHWH|the LORD]], just as [[YHWH|the LORD]] had commanded him.

καὶ ἐθυσίασεν ἐπ’ αὐτοῦ τὸ θυμίαμα τῆς συνθέσεως, καθάπερ συνέταξεν κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ. — LXX Swete · 25
26
Moses placed the gold altar in the Tent of Meeting, in front of the veil,

Καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τῶν καρπωμάτων ἔθηκεν παρὰ τὰς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς, — LXX Swete · 26
27
and he burned fragrant incense on it, just as [[YHWH|the LORD]] had commanded him.
וַיַּקְטֵ֥ר סַמִּ֑ים קְטֹ֣רֶת עָלָ֖יו כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ צִוָּ֥ה מֹשֶֽׁה׃פ way·yaq·ṭêr sam·mîm qə·ṭō·reṯ ‘ā·lāw ka·’ă·šer Yah·weh ’eṯ- ṣiw·wāh mō·šeh — WLC · 27
καὶ καὶ ἔστησεν τὴν αὐλὴν κύκλῳ τῆς σκηνῆς καὶ τοῦ θυσιἀστηρίου· καὶ συνετέλεσεν Μωυσῆς πάντα τὰ ἔργα. — LXX Swete · 27
28
Then he put up the curtain at the entrance to the tabernacle.
וַיָּ֛שֶׂם אֶת־ מָסַ֥ךְ הַפֶּ֖תַח לַמִּשְׁכָּֽן׃ way·yā·śem ’eṯ- mā·saḵ hap·pe·ṯaḥ lam·miš·kān — WLC · 28
Καὶ ἐκάλυψεν ἢ νεφέλη τὴν σκηνὴν τοῦ μαρτυρίου, καὶ δόξης κυρίου ἐπλήσθη ἢ σκηνή· — LXX Swete · 28
29
- He placed the altar of burnt offering near the entrance to the tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting, and offered on it the burnt offering and the grain offering, just as [[YHWH|the LORD]] had commanded him.
וְאֵת֙ שָׂ֕ם מִזְבַּ֣ח הָעֹלָ֔ה פֶּ֖תַח מִשְׁכַּ֣ן אֹֽהֶל־ מוֹעֵ֑ד וַיַּ֣עַל עָלָ֗יו הָעֹלָה֙ וְאֶת־ הַמִּנְחָ֔ה אֶת־ כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ צִוָּ֥ה מֹשֶֽׁה׃ס wə·’êṯ śām miz·baḥ hā·‘ō·lāh pe·ṯaḥ miš·kan ’ō·hel- mō·w·‘êḏ way·ya·‘al ‘ā·lāw hā·‘ō·lāh wə·’eṯ- ham·min·ḥāh ’eṯ- ka·’ă·šer Yah·weh ’eṯ- ṣiw·wāh mō·šeh — WLC · 29

30
He placed the basin between the Tent of Meeting… and the altar and put water in it for washing;
וַיָּ֙שֶׂם֙ אֶת־ הַכִּיֹּ֔ר בֵּֽין־ אֹ֥הֶל מוֹעֵ֖ד וּבֵ֣ין הַמִּזְבֵּ֑חַ וַיִּתֵּ֥ן מַ֖יִם שָׁ֛מָּה לְרָחְצָֽה׃ way·yā·śem ’eṯ- hak·kî·yōr bên- ’ō·hel mō·w·‘êḏ ū·ḇên ham·miz·bê·aḥ way·yit·tên ma·yim šām·māh lə·rā·ḥə·ṣāh — WLC · 30

31
and from it Moses, Aaron, and his sons washed their hands and feet.
מִמֶּ֔נּוּ מֹשֶׁ֖ה וְאַהֲרֹ֣ן וּבָנָ֑יו אֶת־ וְרָחֲצ֣וּ יְדֵיהֶ֖ם וְאֶת־ רַגְלֵיהֶֽם׃ mim·men·nū mō·šeh wə·’a·hă·rōn ū·ḇā·nāw ’eṯ- wə·rā·ḥă·ṣū yə·ḏê·hem wə·’eṯ- raḡ·lê·hem — WLC · 31
εἰ δὲ μὴ ἀνέβη ἡ νεφέλη, οὐκ ἀνεζεύγνυσαν ἕως ἡμέρας ἦς ἀνέβη ἡ νεφέλη. — LXX Swete · 31
32
They washed whenever they entered… the Tent of Meeting or approached… the altar, just as [[YHWH|the LORD]] had commanded Moses.
יִרְחָ֑צוּ בְּבֹאָ֞ם אֶל־ אֹ֣הֶל מוֹעֵ֗ד וּבְקָרְבָתָ֛ם אֶל־ הַמִּזְבֵּ֖חַ כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר יְהוָ֖ה אֶת־ צִוָּ֥ה מֹשֶֽׁה׃ס yir·ḥā·ṣū bə·ḇō·’ām ’el- ’ō·hel mō·w·‘êḏ ū·ḇə·qā·rə·ḇā·ṯām ’el- ham·miz·bê·aḥ ka·’ă·šer Yah·weh ’eṯ- ṣiw·wāh mō·šeh — WLC · 32

33
And Moses set up the courtyard around the tabernacle and the altar, and he hung the curtain for the entrance to the courtyard. So Moses finished the work.
וַיָּ֣קֶם אֶת־ הֶחָצֵ֗ר סָבִיב֙ לַמִּשְׁכָּ֣ן וְלַמִּזְבֵּ֔חַ וַיִּתֵּ֕ן אֶת־ מָסַ֖ךְ שַׁ֣עַר הֶחָצֵ֑ר מֹשֶׁ֖ה אֶת־ וַיְכַ֥ל הַמְּלָאכָֽה׃פ way·yā·qem ’eṯ- he·ḥā·ṣêr sā·ḇîḇ lam·miš·kān wə·lam·miz·bê·aḥ way·yit·tên ’eṯ- mā·saḵ ša·‘ar he·ḥā·ṣêr mō·šeh ’eṯ- way·ḵal ham·mə·lā·ḵāh — WLC · 33
The Cloud and the Glory
34
Then the cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of [[YHWH|the LORD]] filled the tabernacle.
הֶעָנָ֖ן אֶת־ וַיְכַ֥ס אֹ֣הֶל מוֹעֵ֑ד וּכְב֣וֹד יְהוָ֔ה מָלֵ֖א אֶת־ הַמִּשְׁכָּֽן׃ he·‘ā·nān ’eṯ- way·ḵas ’ō·hel mō·w·‘êḏ ū·ḵə·ḇō·wḏ Yah·weh mā·lê ’eṯ- ham·miš·kān — WLC · 34
35
Moses was unable… to enter… the Tent of Meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of [[YHWH|the LORD]] filled the tabernacle.

Whenever the cloud was lifted from above the tabernacle, the Israelites… would set out through all the stages of their journey.

If the cloud was not lifted, they would not set out until the day it was taken up.
וְאִם־ הֶעָנָ֑ן לֹ֥א יֵעָלֶ֖ה וְלֹ֣א יִסְע֔וּ עַד־ י֖וֹם הֵעָלֹתֽוֹ׃ wə·’im- he·‘ā·nān lō yê·‘ā·leh wə·lō yis·‘ū ‘aḏ- yō·wm hê·‘ā·lō·ṯōw — WLC · 37

For the cloud of [[YHWH|the LORD]] was over the tabernacle by day, and fire was in the cloud by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel through all their journeys.
