THE SECOND BOOK OF MOSES CALLED
Exodus
Part 2 (Chapters 21-40)
21:1: Now these are the judgments which thou shalt
set before them.
21:2: If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years
he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
21:3: If he came in by himself, he shall go out
by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with
him.
21:4: If his master have given him a wife, and
she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children
shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.
21:5: And if the servant shall plainly say, I
love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free:
21:6: Then his master shall bring him unto the
judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door
post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and
he shall serve him for ever.
21:7: And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant,
she shall not go out as the menservants do.
21:8: If she please not her master, who hath betrothed
her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her
unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt
deceitfully with her.
21:9: And if he have betrothed her unto his son,
he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.
21:10: If he take him another wife; her food,
her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish.
21:11: And if he do not these three unto her,
then shall she go out free without money.
21:12: He that smiteth a man, so that he die,
shall be surely put to death.
21:13: And if a man lie not in wait, but God deliver
him into his hand; then I will appoint thee a place whither he
shall flee.
21:14: But if a man come presumptuously upon his
neighbour, to slay him with guile; thou shalt take him from mine
altar, that he may die.
21:15: And he that smiteth his father, or his
mother, shall be surely put to death.
21:16: And he that stealeth a man, and selleth
him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to
death.
21:17: And he that curseth his father, or his
mother, shall surely be put to death.
21:18: And if men strive together, and one smite
another with a stone, or with his fist, and he die not, but keepeth
his bed:
21:19: If he rise again, and walk abroad upon
his staff, then shall he that smote him be quit: only he shall
pay for the loss of his time, and shall cause him to be thoroughly
healed.
21:20: And if a man smite his servant, or his
maid, with a rod, and he die under his hand; he shall be surely
punished.
21:21: Notwithstanding, if he continue a day or
two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money.
21:22: If men strive, and hurt a woman with child,
so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow:
he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband
will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine.
21:23: And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt
give life for life,
21:24: Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for
hand, foot for foot,
21:25: Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe
for stripe.
21:26: And if a man smite the eye of his servant,
or the eye of his maid, that it perish; he shall let him go free
for his eye's sake.
21:27: And if he smite out his manservant's tooth,
or his maidservant's tooth; he shall let him go free for his tooth's
sake.
21:28: If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they
die: then the ox shall be surely stoned, and his flesh shall not
be eaten; but the owner of the ox shall be quit.
21:29: But if the ox were wont to push with his
horn in time past, and it hath been testified to his owner, and
he hath not kept him in, but that he hath killed a man or a woman;
the ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death.
21:30: If there be laid on him a sum of money,
then he shall give for the ransom of his life whatsoever is laid
upon him.
21:31: Whether he have gored a son, or have gored
a daughter, according to this judgment shall it be done unto him.
21:32: If the ox shall push a manservant or a
maidservant; he shall give unto their master thirty shekels of
silver, and the ox shall be stoned.
21:33: And if a man shall open a pit, or if a
man shall dig a pit, and not cover it, and an ox or an ass fall
therein;
21:34: The owner of the pit shall make it good,
and give money unto the owner of them; and the dead beast shall
be his.
21:35: And if one man's ox hurt another's, that
he die; then they shall sell the live ox, and divide the money
of it; and the dead ox also they shall divide.
21:36: Or if it be known that the ox hath used
to push in time past, and his owner hath not kept him in; he shall
surely pay ox for ox; and the dead shall be his own.
22:1: If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep,
and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox,
and four sheep for a sheep.
22:2: If a thief be found breaking up, and be
smitten that he die, there shall no blood be shed for him.
22:3: If the sun be risen upon him, there shall
be blood shed for him; for he should make full restitution; if
he have nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.
22:4: If the theft be certainly found in his hand
alive, whether it be ox, or ass, or sheep; he shall restore double.
22:5: If a man shall cause a field or vineyard
to be eaten, and shall put in his beast, and shall feed in another
man's field; of the best of his own field, and of the best of
his own vineyard, shall he make restitution.
22:6: If fire break out, and catch in thorns,
so that the stacks of corn, or the standing corn, or the field,
be consumed therewith; he that kindled the fire shall surely make
restitution.
22:7: If a man shall deliver unto his neighbour
money or stuff to keep, and it be stolen out of the man's house;
if the thief be found, let him pay double.
22:8: If the thief be not found, then the master
of the house shall be brought unto the judges, to see whether
he have put his hand unto his neighbour's goods.
22:9: For all manner of trespass, whether it be
for ox, for ass, for sheep, for raiment, or for any manner of
lost thing, which another challengeth to be his, the cause of
both parties shall come before the judges; and whom the judges
shall condemn, he shall pay double unto his neighbour.
22:10: If a man deliver unto his neighbour an
ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep; and it die,
or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it:
22:11: Then shall an oath of the LORD be between
them both, that he hath not put his hand unto his neighbour's
goods; and the owner of it shall accept thereof, and he shall
not make it good.
22:12: And if it be stolen from him, he shall
make restitution unto the owner thereof.
22:13: If it be torn in pieces, then let him bring
it for witness, and he shall not make good that which was torn.
22:14: And if a man borrow ought of his neighbour,
and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof being not with it, he
shall surely make it good.
22:15: But if the owner thereof be with it, he
shall not make it good: if it be an hired thing, it came for his
hire.
22:16: And if a man entice a maid that is not
betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his
wife.
22:17: If her father utterly refuse to give her
unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
22:18: Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
22:19: Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely
be put to death.
22:20: He that sacrificeth unto any god, save
unto the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.
22:21: Thou shalt neither vex a stranger, nor
oppress him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
22:22: Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless
child.
22:23: If thou afflict them in any wise, and they
cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;
22:24: And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will
kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your
children fatherless.
22:25: If thou lend money to any of my people
that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither
shalt thou lay upon him usury.
22:26: If thou at all take thy neighbour's raiment
to pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth
down:
22:27: For that is his covering only, it is his
raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come
to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.
22:28: Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse
the ruler of thy people.
22:29: Thou shalt not delay to offer the first
of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons
shalt thou give unto me.
22:30: Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen,
and with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the
eighth day thou shalt give it me.
22:31: And ye shall be holy men unto me: neither
shall ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye
shall cast it to the dogs.
23:1: Thou shalt not raise a false report: put
not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness.
23:2: Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do
evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many
to wrest judgment:
23:3: Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man
in his cause.
23:4: If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass
going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again.
23:5: If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee
lying under his burden, and wouldest forbear to help him, thou
shalt surely help with him.
23:6: Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy
poor in his cause.
23:7: Keep thee far from a false matter; and the
innocent and righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify the
wicked.
23:8: And thou shalt take no gift: for the gift
blindeth the wise, and perverteth the words of the righteous.
23:9: Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger:
for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers
in the land of Egypt.
23:10: And six years thou shalt sow thy land,
and shalt gather in the fruits thereof:
23:11: But the seventh year thou shalt let it
rest and lie still; that the poor of thy people may eat: and what
they leave the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner
thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thy oliveyard.
23:12: Six days thou shalt do thy work, and on
the seventh day thou shalt rest: that thine ox and thine ass may
rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger, may be refreshed.
23:13: And in all things that I have said unto
you be circumspect: and make no mention of the name of other gods,
neither let it be heard out of thy mouth.
23:14: Three times thou shalt keep a feast unto
me in the year.
23:15: Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened
bread: (thou shalt eat unleavened bread seven days, as I commanded
thee, in the time appointed of the month Abib; for in it thou
camest out from Egypt: and none shall appear before me empty:)
23:16: And the feast of harvest, the firstfruits
of thy labours, which thou hast sown in the field: and the feast
of ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast
gathered in thy labours out of the field.
23:17: Three times in the year all thy males shall
appear before the Lord GOD.
23:18: Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice
with leavened bread; neither shall the fat of my sacrifice remain
until the morning.
23:19: The first of the firstfruits of thy land
thou shalt bring into the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt
not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.
23:20: Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to
keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I
have prepared.
23:21: Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke
him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name
is in him.
23:22: But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice,
and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies,
and an adversary unto thine adversaries.
23:23: For mine Angel shall go before thee, and
bring thee in unto the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites,
and the Canaanites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites: and I
will cut them off.
23:24: Thou shalt not bow down to their gods,
nor serve them, nor do after their works: but thou shalt utterly
overthrow them, and quite break down their images.
23:25: And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and
he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness
away from the midst of thee.
23:26: There shall nothing cast their young, nor
be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfil.
23:27: I will send my fear before thee, and will
destroy all the people to whom thou shalt come, and I will make
all thine enemies turn their backs unto thee.
23:28: And I will send hornets before thee, which
shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from
before thee.
23:29: I will not drive them out from before thee
in one year; lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the
field multiply against thee.
23:30: By little and little I will drive them
out from before thee, until thou be increased, and inherit the
land.
23:31: And I will set thy bounds from the Red
sea even unto the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert
unto the river: for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land
into your hand; and thou shalt drive them out before thee.
23:32: Thou shalt make no covenant with them,
nor with their gods.
23:33: They shall not dwell in thy land, lest
they make thee sin against me: for if thou serve their gods, it
will surely be a snare unto thee.
24:1: And he said unto Moses, Come up unto the
LORD, thou, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders
of Israel; and worship ye afar off.
24:2: And Moses alone shall come near the LORD:
but they shall not come nigh; neither shall the people go up with
him.
24:3: And Moses came and told the people all the
words of the LORD, and all the judgments: and all the people answered
with one voice, and said, All the words which the LORD hath said
will we do.
24:4: And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD,
and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the
hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
24:5: And he sent young men of the children of
Israel, which offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings
of oxen unto the LORD.
24:6: And Moses took half of the blood, and put
it in basons; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
24:7: And he took the book of the covenant, and
read in the audience of the people: and they said, All that the
LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient.
24:8: And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled
it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant,
which the LORD hath made with you concerning all these words.
24:9: Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and
Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:
24:10: And they saw the God of Israel: and there
was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone,
and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness.
24:11: And upon the nobles of the children of
Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and
drink.
24:12: And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to
me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of
stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that
thou mayest teach them.
24:13: And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua:
and Moses went up into the mount of God.
24:14: And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here
for us, until we come again unto you: and, behold, Aaron and Hur
are with you: if any man have any matters to do, let him come
unto them.
24:15: And Moses went up into the mount, and a
cloud covered the mount.
24:16: And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount
Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day
he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.
24:17: And the sight of the glory of the LORD
was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of
the children of Israel.
24:18: And Moses went into the midst of the cloud,
and gat him up into the mount: and Moses was in the mount forty
days and forty nights.
25:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
25:2: Speak unto the children of Israel, that
they bring me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly
with his heart ye shall take my offering.
25:3: And this is the offering which ye shall
take of them; gold, and silver, and brass,
25:4: And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine
linen, and goats' hair,
25:5: And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins,
and shittim wood,
25:6: Oil for the light, spices for anointing
oil, and for sweet incense,
25:7: Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the
ephod, and in the breastplate.
25:8: And let them make me a sanctuary; that I
may dwell among them.
25:9: According to all that I shew thee, after
the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments
thereof, even so shall ye make it.
25:10: And they shall make an ark of shittim wood:
two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit
and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height
thereof.
25:11: And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold,
within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon
it a crown of gold round about.
25:12: And thou shalt cast four rings of gold
for it, and put them in the four corners thereof; and two rings
shall be in the one side of it, and two rings in the other side
of it.
25:13: And thou shalt make staves of shittim wood,
and overlay them with gold.
25:14: And thou shalt put the staves into the
rings by the sides of the ark, that the ark may be borne with
them.
25:15: The staves shall be in the rings of the
ark: they shall not be taken from it.
25:16: And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony
which I shall give thee.
25:17: And thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure
gold: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a
cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
25:18: And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold,
of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy
seat.
25:19: And make one cherub on the one end, and
the other cherub on the other end: even of the mercy seat shall
ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof.
25:20: And the cherubims shall stretch forth their
wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their
faces shall look one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the
faces of the cherubims be.
25:21: And thou shalt put the mercy seat above
upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that
I shall give thee.
25:22: And there I will meet with thee, and I
will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between
the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony, of
all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children
of Israel.
25:23: Thou shalt also make a table of shittim
wood: two cubits shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the
breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
25:24: And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold,
and make thereto a crown of gold round about.
25:25: And thou shalt make unto it a border of
an hand breadth round about, and thou shalt make a golden crown
to the border thereof round about.
25:26: And thou shalt make for it four rings of
gold, and put the rings in the four corners that are on the four
feet thereof.
25:27: Over against the border shall the rings
be for places of the staves to bear the table.
25:28: And thou shalt make the staves of shittim
wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne
with them.
25:29: And thou shalt make the dishes thereof,
and spoons thereof, and covers thereof, and bowls thereof, to
cover withal: of pure gold shalt thou make them.
25:30: And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread
before me alway.
25:31: And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure
gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick be made: his shaft,
and his branches, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, shall
be of the same.
25:32: And six branches shall come out of the
sides of it; three branches of the candlestick out of the one
side, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side:
25:33: Three bowls made like unto almonds, with
a knop and a flower in one branch; and three bowls made like almonds
in the other branch, with a knop and a flower: so in the six branches
that come out of the candlestick.
25:34: And in the candlestick shall be four bowls
made like unto almonds, with their knops and their flowers.
25:35: And there shall be a knop under two branches
of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, and a
knop under two branches of the same, according to the six branches
that proceed out of the candlestick.
25:36: Their knops and their branches shall be
of the same: all it shall be one beaten work of pure gold.
25:37: And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof:
and they shall light the lamps thereof, that they may give light
over against it.
25:38: And the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes
thereof, shall be of pure gold.
25:39: Of a talent of pure gold shall he make
it, with all these vessels.
25:40: And look that thou make them after their
pattern, which was shewed thee in the mount.
26:1: Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle
with ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple,
and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work shalt thou make them.
26:2: The length of one curtain shall be eight
and twenty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits:
and every one of the curtains shall have one measure.
26:3: The five curtains shall be coupled together
one to another; and other five curtains shall be coupled one to
another.
26:4: And thou shalt make loops of blue upon the
edge of the one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling; and
likewise shalt thou make in the uttermost edge of another curtain,
in the coupling of the second.
26:5: Fifty loops shalt thou make in the one curtain,
and fifty loops shalt thou make in the edge of the curtain that
is in the coupling of the second; that the loops may take hold
one of another.
26:6: And thou shalt make fifty taches of gold,
and couple the curtains together with the taches: and it shall
be one tabernacle.
26:7: And thou shalt make curtains of goats' hair
to be a covering upon the tabernacle: eleven curtains shalt thou
make.
26:8: The length of one curtain shall be thirty
cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: and the eleven
curtains shall be all of one measure.
26:9: And thou shalt couple five curtains by themselves,
and six curtains by themselves, and shalt double the sixth curtain
in the forefront of the tabernacle.
26:10: And thou shalt make fifty loops on the
edge of the one curtain that is outmost in the coupling, and fifty
loops in the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second.
26:11: And thou shalt make fifty taches of brass,
and put the taches into the loops, and couple the tent together,
that it may be one.
26:12: And the remnant that remaineth of the curtains
of the tent, the half curtain that remaineth, shall hang over
the backside of the tabernacle.
26:13: And a cubit on the one side, and a cubit
on the other side of that which remaineth in the length of the
curtains of the tent, it shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle
on this side and on that side, to cover it.
26:14: And thou shalt make a covering for the
tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering above of badgers'
skins.
26:15: And thou shalt make boards for the tabernacle
of shittim wood standing up.
26:16: Ten cubits shall be the length of a board,
and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board.
26:17: Two tenons shall there be in one board,
set in order one against another: thus shalt thou make for all
the boards of the tabernacle.
26:18: And thou shalt make the boards for the
tabernacle, twenty boards on the south side southward.
26:19: And thou shalt make forty sockets of silver
under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for his two
tenons, and two sockets under another board for his two tenons.
26:20: And for the second side of the tabernacle
on the north side there shall be twenty boards:
26:21: And their forty sockets of silver; two
sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.
26:22: And for the sides of the tabernacle westward
thou shalt make six boards.
26:23: And two boards shalt thou make for the
corners of the tabernacle in the two sides.
26:24: And they shall be coupled together beneath,
and they shall be coupled together above the head of it unto one
ring: thus shall it be for them both; they shall be for the two
corners.
26:25: And they shall be eight boards, and their
sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; two sockets under one board,
and two sockets under another board.
26:26: And thou shalt make bars of shittim wood;
five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,
26:27: And five bars for the boards of the other
side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the side
of the tabernacle, for the two sides westward.
26:28: And the middle bar in the midst of the
boards shall reach from end to end.
26:29: And thou shalt overlay the boards with
gold, and make their rings of gold for places for the bars: and
thou shalt overlay the bars with gold.
26:30: And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according
to the fashion thereof which was shewed thee in the mount.
26:31: And thou shalt make a vail of blue, and
purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen of cunning work: with
cherubims shall it be made:
26:32: And thou shalt hang it upon four pillars
of shittim wood overlaid with gold: their hooks shall be of gold,
upon the four sockets of silver.
26:33: And thou shalt hang up the vail under the
taches, that thou mayest bring in thither within the vail the
ark of the testimony: and the vail shall divide unto you between
the holy place and the most holy.
26:34: And thou shalt put the mercy seat upon
the ark of the testimony in the most holy place.
26:35: And thou shalt set the table without the
vail, and the candlestick over against the table on the side of
the tabernacle toward the south: and thou shalt put the table
on the north side.
26:36: And thou shalt make an hanging for the
door of the tent, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined
linen, wrought with needlework.
26:37: And thou shalt make for the hanging five
pillars of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, and their
hooks shall be of gold: and thou shalt cast five sockets of brass

children of Israel.

thy brother for glory and for beauty.

like the engravings of a signet, shalt thou engrave the two stones

to be set in ouches of gold.

the shoulders of the ephod for stones of memorial unto the children
of Israel: and Aaron shall bear their names before the LORD upon

of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like

all of blue.
28:32: And there shall be an hole in the top of
it, in the midst thereof: it shall have a binding of woven work
round about the hole of it, as it were the hole of an habergeon,
that it be not rent.
28:33: And beneath upon the hem of it thou shalt
make pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, round
about the hem thereof; and bells of gold between them round about:
28:34: A golden bell and a pomegranate, a golden
bell and a pomegranate, upon the hem of the robe round about.

and his sound shall be heard when he goeth in unto the holy place
before the LORD, and when he cometh out, that he die not.

they shall reach:
28:43: And they shall be upon Aaron, and upon
his sons, when they come in unto the tabernacle of the congregation,
or when they come near unto the altar to minister in the holy
place; that they bear not iniquity, and die: it shall be a statute
for ever unto him and his seed after him.
29:1: And this is the thing that thou shalt do
unto them to hallow them, to minister unto me in the priest's
office: Take one young bullock, and two rams without blemish,
29:2: And unleavened bread, and cakes unleavened
tempered with oil, and wafers unleavened anointed with oil: of
wheaten flour shalt thou make them.
29:3: And thou shalt put them into one basket,
and bring them in the basket, with the bullock and the two rams.
29:4: And Aaron and his sons thou shalt bring
unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and shalt
wash them with water.
ONT SIZE=2>29:5: And thou shalt take the garments, and put

and his sons, and put the bonnets on them: and the priest's office

Aaron and his sons.
29:10: And thou shalt cause a bullock to be brought
before the tabernacle of the congregation: and Aaron and his sons
shall put their hands upon the head of the bullock.
29:11: And thou shalt kill the bullock before
the LORD, by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
29:12: And thou shalt take of the blood of the
bullock, and put it upon the horns of the altar with thy finger,
and pour all the blood beside the bottom of the altar.
29:13: And thou shalt take all the fat that covereth
the inwards, and the caul that is above the liver, and the two
kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, and burn them upon the
altar.
29:14: But the flesh of the bullock, and his skin,
and his dung, shalt thou burn with fire without the camp: it is
a sin offering.
29:15: Thou shalt also take one ram; and Aaron
and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram.
29:16: And thou shalt slay the ram, and thou shalt
take his blood, and sprinkle it round about upon the altar.
29:17: And thou shalt cut the ram in pieces, and
wash the inwards of him, and his legs, and put them unto his pieces,
and unto his head.
29:18: And thou shalt burn the whole ram upon
the altar: it is a burnt offering unto the LORD: it is a sweet
savour, an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
29:19: And thou shalt take the other ram; and
Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the
ram.
29:20: Then shalt thou kill the ram, and take
of his blood, and put it upon the tip of the right ear of Aaron,
and upon the tip of the right ear of his sons, and upon the thumb
of their right hand, and upon the great toe of their right foot,
and sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about.
29:21: And thou shalt take of the blood that is
upon the altar, and of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it upon
Aaron, and upon his garments, and upon his sons, and upon the
garments of his sons with him: and he shall be hallowed, and his
garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him.
29:22: Also thou shalt take of the ram the fat
and the rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards, and the caul
above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon
them, and the right shoulder; for it is a ram of consecration:
29:23: And one loaf of bread, and one cake of
oiled bread, and one wafer out of the basket of the unleavened
bread that is before the LORD:
29:24: And thou shalt put all in the hands of
Aaron, and in the hands of his sons; and shalt wave them for a
wave offering before the LORD.
29:25: And thou shalt receive them of their hands,
and burn them upon the altar for a burnt offering, for a sweet
savour before the LORD: it is an offering made by fire unto the
LORD.
29:26: And thou shalt take the breast of the ram
of Aaron's consecration, and wave it for a wave offering before
the LORD: and it shall be thy part.
29:27: And thou shalt sanctify the breast of the
wave offering, and the shoulder of the heave offering, which is
waved, and which is heaved up, of the ram of the consecration,
even of that which is for Aaron, and of that which is for his
sons:
29:28: And it shall be Aaron's and his sons' by
a statute for ever from the children of Israel: for it is an heave
offering: and it shall be an heave offering from the children
of Israel of the sacrifice of their peace offerings, even their
heave offering unto the LORD.
29:29: And the holy garments of Aaron shall be
his sons' after him, to be anointed therein, and to be consecrated
in them.
29:30: And that son that is priest in his stead
shall put them on seven days, when he cometh into the tabernacle
of the congregation to minister in the holy place.
29:31: And thou shalt take the ram of the consecration,
and seethe his flesh in the holy place.
29:32: And Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh
of the ram, and the bread that is in the basket, by the door of
the tabernacle of the congregation.
29:33: And they shall eat those things wherewith
the atonement was made, to consecrate and to sanctify them: but
a stranger shall not eat thereof, because they are holy.
29:34: And if ought of the flesh of the consecrations,
or of the bread, remain unto the morning, then thou shalt burn
the remainder with fire: it shall not be eaten, because it is
holy.
29:35: And thus shalt thou do unto Aaron, and
to his sons, according to all things which I have commanded thee:
seven days shalt thou consecrate them.
29:36: And thou shalt offer every day a bullock
for a sin offering for atonement: and thou shalt cleanse the altar,
when thou hast made an atonement for it, and thou shalt anoint
it, to sanctify it.
29:37: Seven days thou shalt make an atonement
for the altar, and sanctify it; and it shall be an altar most
holy: whatsoever toucheth the altar shall be holy.
29:38: Now this is that which thou shalt offer
upon the altar; two lambs of the first year day by day continually.
29:39: The one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning;
and the other lamb thou shalt offer at even:
29:40: And with the one lamb a tenth deal of flour
mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil; and the
fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering.
29:41: And the other lamb thou shalt offer at
even, and shalt do thereto according to the meat offering of the
morning, and according to the drink offering thereof, for a sweet
savour, an offering made by fire unto the LORD.
29:42: This shall be a continual burnt offering
throughout your generations at the door of the tabernacle of the
congregation before the LORD: where I will meet you, to speak
there unto thee.
29:43: And there I will meet with the children
of Israel, and the tabernacle shall be sanctified by my glory.
29:44: And I will sanctify the tabernacle of the
congregation, and the altar: I will sanctify also both Aaron and
his sons, to minister to me in the priest's office.
29:45: And I will dwell among the children of
Israel, and will be their God.
29:46: And they shall know that I am the LORD
their God, that brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, that
I may dwell among them: I am the LORD their God.
30:1: And thou shalt make an altar to burn incense
upon: of shittim wood shalt thou make it.
30:2: A cubit shall be the length thereof, and
a cubit the breadth thereof; foursquare shall it be: and two cubits
shall be the height thereof: the horns thereof shall be of the
same.
30:3: And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold,
the top thereof, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns
thereof; and thou shalt make unto it a crown of gold round about.
30:4: And two golden rings shalt thou make to
it under the crown of it, by the two corners thereof, upon the
two sides of it shalt thou make it; and they shall be for places
for the staves to bear it withal.
30:5: And thou shalt make the staves of shittim
wood, and overlay them with gold.
30:6: And thou shalt put it before the vail that
is by the ark of the testimony, before the mercy seat that is
over the testimony, where I will meet with thee.
30:7: And Aaron shall burn thereon sweet incense
every morning: when he dresseth the lamps, he shall burn incense
upon it.
30:8: And when Aaron lighteth the lamps at even,
he shall burn incense upon it, a perpetual incense before the
LORD throughout your generations.
30:9: Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon,
nor burnt sacrifice, nor meat offering; neither shall ye pour
drink offering thereon.
30:10: And Aaron shall make an atonement upon
the horns of it once in a year with the blood of the sin offering
of atonements: once in the year shall he make atonement upon it
throughout your generations: it is most holy unto the LORD.
30:11: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
30:12: When thou takest the sum of the children
of Israel after their number, then shall they give every man a
ransom for his soul unto the LORD, when thou numberest them; that
there be no plague among them, when thou numberest them.
30:13: This they shall give, every one that passeth
among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of
the sanctuary: (a shekel is twenty gerahs:) an half shekel shall
be the offering of the LORD.
30:14: Every one that passeth among them that
are numbered, from twenty years old and above, shall give an offering
unto the LORD.
30:15: The rich shall not give more, and the poor
shall not give less than half a shekel, when they give an offering
unto the LORD, to make an atonement for your souls.
30:16: And thou shalt take the atonement money
of the children of Israel, and shalt appoint it for the service
of the tabernacle of the congregation; that it may be a memorial
unto the children of Israel before the LORD, to make an atonement
for your souls.
30:17: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
30:18: Thou shalt also make a laver of brass,
and his foot also of brass, to wash withal: and thou shalt put
it between the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar, and
thou shalt put water therein.
30:19: For Aaron and his sons shall wash their
hands and their feet thereat:
30:20: When they go into the tabernacle of the
congregation, they shall wash with water, that they die not; or
when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn offering
made by fire unto the LORD:
30:21: So they shall wash their hands and their
feet, that they die not: and it shall be a statute for ever to
them, even to him and to his seed throughout their generations.
30:22: Moreover the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
30:23: Take thou also unto thee principal spices,
of pure myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half
so much, even two hundred and fifty shekels, and of sweet calamus
two hundred and fifty shekels,
30:24: And of cassia five hundred shekels, after
the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil olive an hin:
30:25: And thou shalt make it an oil of holy ointment,
an ointment compound after the art of the apothecary: it shall
be an holy anointing oil.
30:26: And thou shalt anoint the tabernacle of
the congregation therewith, and the ark of the testimony,
30:27: And the table and all his vessels, and
the candlestick and his vessels, and the altar of incense,
30:28: And the altar of burnt offering with all
his vessels, and the laver and his foot.
30:29: And thou shalt sanctify them, that they
may be most holy: whatsoever toucheth them shall be holy.
30:30: And thou shalt anoint Aaron and his sons,
and consecrate them, that they may minister unto me in the priest's
office.
30:31: And thou shalt speak unto the children
of Israel, saying, This shall be an holy anointing oil unto me
throughout your generations.
30:32: Upon man's flesh shall it not be poured,
neither shall ye make any other like it, after the composition
of it: it is holy, and it shall be holy unto you.
30:33: Whosoever compoundeth any like it, or whosoever
putteth any of it upon a stranger, shall even be cut off from
his people.
30:34: And the LORD said unto Moses, Take unto
thee sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum; these sweet
spices with pure frankincense: of each shall there be a like weight:
30:35: And thou shalt make it a perfume, a confection
after the art of the apothecary, tempered together, pure and holy:
30:36: And thou shalt beat some of it very small,
and put of it before the testimony in the tabernacle of the congregation,
where I will meet with thee: it shall be unto you most holy.
30:37: And as for the perfume which thou shalt
make, ye shall not make to yourselves according to the composition
thereof: it shall be unto thee holy for the LORD.
30:38: Whosoever shall make like unto that, to
smell thereto, shall even be cut off from his people.
31:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
31:2: See, I have called by name Bezaleel the
son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:
31:3: And I have filled him with the spirit of
God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in
all manner of workmanship,
31:4: To devise cunning works, to work in gold,
and in silver, and in brass,
31:5: And in cutting of stones, to set them, and
in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.
31:6: And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab,
the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of
all that are wise hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make
all that I have commanded thee;
31:7: The tabernacle of the congregation, and
the ark of the testimony, and the mercy seat that is thereupon,
and all the furniture of the tabernacle,
31:8: And the table and his furniture, and the
pure candlestick with all his furniture, and the altar of incense,
31:9: And the altar of burnt offering with all
his furniture, and the laver and his foot,
31:10: And the cloths of service, and the holy
garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to
minister in the priest's office,
31:11: And the anointing oil, and sweet incense
for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded thee
shall they do.
31:12: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
31:13: Speak thou also unto the children of Israel,
saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between
me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that
I am the LORD that doth sanctify you.
31:14: Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for
it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be
put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul
shall be cut off from among his people.
31:15: Six days may work be done; but in the seventh
is the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any
work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death.
31:16: Wherefore the children of Israel shall
keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations,
for a perpetual covenant.
31:17: It is a sign between me and the children
of Israel for ever: for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth,
and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
31:18: And he gave unto Moses, when he had made
an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony,
tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
32:1: And when the people saw that Moses delayed
to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves
together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which
shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought
us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
32:2: And Aaron said unto them, Break off the
golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your
sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.
32:3: And all the people brake off the golden
earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.
32:4: And he received them at their hand, and
fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten
calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought
thee up out of the land of Egypt.
32:5: And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar
before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is
a feast to the LORD.
32:6: And they rose up early on the morrow, and
offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the
people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
32:7: And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee
down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of
Egypt, have corrupted themselves:
32:8: They have turned aside quickly out of the
way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf,
and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said,
These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of
the land of Egypt.
32:9: And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen
this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
32:10: Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath
may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will
make of thee a great nation.
32:11: And Moses besought the LORD his God, and
said, LORD, why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which
thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power,
and with a mighty hand?
32:12: Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and
say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains,
and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy
fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people.
32:13: Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy
servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto
them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all
this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and
they shall inherit it for ever.
32:14: And the LORD repented of the evil which
he thought to do unto his people.
32:15: And Moses turned, and went down from the
mount, and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand: the
tables were written on both their sides; on the one side and on
the other were they written.
32:16: And the tables were the work of God, and
the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables.
32:17: And when Joshua heard the noise of the
people as they shouted, he said unto Moses, There is a noise of
war in the camp.
32:18: And he said, It is not the voice of them
that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry
for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I hear.
32:19: And it came to pass, as soon as he came
nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and
Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands,
and brake them beneath the mount.
32:20: And he took the calf which they had made,
and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strawed
it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it.
32:21: And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this
people unto thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them?
32:22: And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my
lord wax hot: thou knowest the people, that they are set on mischief.
32:23: For they said unto me, Make us gods, which
shall go before us: for as for this Moses, the man that brought
us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
32:24: And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any
gold, let them break it off. So they gave it me: then I cast
it into the fire, and there came out this calf.
32:25: And when Moses saw that the people were
naked; (for Aaron had made them naked unto their shame among their
enemies:)
32:26: Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp,
and said, Who is on the LORD's side? let him come unto me. And
all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him.
32:27: And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD
God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in
and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every
man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his
neighbour.
32:28: And the children of Levi did according
to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about
three thousand men.
32:29: For Moses had said, Consecrate yourselves
to day to the LORD, even every man upon his son, and upon his
brother; that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.
32:30: And it came to pass on the morrow, that
Moses said unto the people, Ye have sinned a great sin: and now
I will go up unto the LORD; peradventure I shall make an atonement
for your sin.
32:31: And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said,
Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods
of gold.
32:32: Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--;
and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast
written.
32:33: And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever
hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.
32:34: Therefore now go, lead the people unto
the place of which I have spoken unto thee: behold, mine Angel
shall go before thee: nevertheless in the day when I visit I will
visit their sin upon them.
32:35: And the LORD plagued the people, because
they made the calf, which Aaron made.
33:1: And the LORD said unto Moses, Depart, and
go up hence, thou and the people which thou hast brought up out
of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I sware unto Abraham,
to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will I give it:
33:2: And I will send an angel before thee; and
I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite,
and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite:
33:3: Unto a land flowing with milk and honey:
for I will not go up in the midst of thee; for thou art a stiffnecked
people: lest I consume thee in the way.
33:4: And when the people heard these evil tidings,
they mourned: and no man did put on him his ornaments.
33:5: For the LORD had said unto Moses, Say unto
the children of Israel, Ye are a stiffnecked people: I will come
up into the midst of thee in a moment, and consume thee: therefore
now put off thy ornaments from thee, that I may know what to do
unto thee.
33:6: And the children of Israel stripped themselves
of their ornaments by the mount Horeb.
33:7: And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched
it without the camp, afar off from the camp, and called it the
Tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass, that every
one which sought the LORD went out unto the tabernacle of the
congregation, which was without the camp.
33:8: And it came to pass, when Moses went out
unto the tabernacle, that all the people rose up, and stood every
man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was gone
into the tabernacle.
33:9: And it came to pass, as Moses entered into
the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood at the
door of the tabernacle, and the LORD talked with Moses.
33:10: And all the people saw the cloudy pillar
stand at the tabernacle door: and all the people rose up and worshipped,
every man in his tent door.
33:11: And the LORD spake unto Moses face to face,
as a man speaketh unto his friend. And he turned again into the
camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed
not out of the tabernacle.
33:12: And Moses said unto the LORD, See, thou
sayest unto me, Bring up this people: and thou hast not let me
know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, I know
thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight.
33:13: Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found
grace in thy sight, shew me now thy way, that I may know thee,
that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that this nation
is thy people.
33:14: And he said, My presence shall go with
thee, and I will give thee rest.
33:15: And he said unto him, If thy presence go
not with me, carry us not up hence.
33:16: For wherein shall it be known here that
I and thy people have found grace in thy sight? is it not in
that thou goest with us? so shall we be separated, I and thy
people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth.
33:17: And the LORD said unto Moses, I will do
this thing also that thou hast spoken: for thou hast found grace
in my sight, and I know thee by name.
33:18: And he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy
glory.
33:19: And he said, I will make all my goodness
pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before
thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will
shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy.
33:20: And he said, Thou canst not see my face:
for there shall no man see me, and live.
33:21: And the LORD said, Behold, there is a place
by me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock:
33:22: And it shall come to pass, while my glory
passeth by, that I will put thee in a clift of the rock, and will
cover thee with my hand while I pass by:
33:23: And I will take away mine hand, and thou
shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.
34:1: And the LORD said unto Moses, Hew thee two
tables of stone like unto the first: and I will write upon these
tables the words that were in the first tables, which thou brakest.
34:2: And be ready in the morning, and come up
in the morning unto mount Sinai, and present thyself there to
me in the top of the mount.
34:3: And no man shall come up with thee, neither
let any man be seen throughout all the mount; neither let the
flocks nor herds feed before that mount.
34:4: And he hewed two tables of stone like unto
the first; and Moses rose up early in the morning, and went up
unto mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and took in his
hand the two tables of stone.
34:5: And the LORD descended in the cloud, and
stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the LORD.
34:6: And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed,
The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering,
and abundant in goodness and truth,
34:7: Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity
and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the
guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children,
and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth
generation.
34:8: And Moses made haste, and bowed his head
toward the earth, and worshipped.
34:9: And he said, If now I have found grace in
thy sight, O Lord, let my Lord, I pray thee, go among us; for
it is a stiffnecked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin,
and take us for thine inheritance.
34:10: And he said, Behold, I make a covenant:
before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been
done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among
which thou art shall see the work of the LORD: for it is a terrible
thing that I will do with thee.
34:11: Observe thou that which I command thee
this day: behold, I drive out before thee the Amorite, and the
Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite,
and the Jebusite.
34:12: Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a
covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest,
lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee
34:13: But ye shall destroy their altars, break
their images, and cut down their groves:
34:14: For thou shalt worship no other god: for
the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:
34:15: Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants
of the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice
unto their gods, and one call thee, and thou eat of his sacrifice;
34:16: And thou take of their daughters unto thy
sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make
thy sons go a whoring after their gods.
34:17: Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.
34:18: The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou
keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded
thee, in the time of the month Abib: for in the month Abib thou
camest out from Egypt.
34:19: All that openeth the matrix is mine; and
every firstling among thy cattle, whether ox or sheep, that is
male.
34:20: But the firstling of an ass thou shalt
redeem with a lamb: and if thou redeem him not, then shalt thou
break his neck. All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt redeem.
And none shall appear before me empty.
34:21: Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh
day thou shalt rest: in earing time and in harvest thou shalt
rest.
34:22: And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks,
of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering
at the year's end.
34:23: Thrice in the year shall all your men children
appear before the Lord GOD, the God of Israel.
34:24: For I will cast out the nations before
thee, and enlarge thy borders: neither shall any man desire thy
land, when thou shalt go up to appear before the LORD thy God
thrice in the year.
34:25: Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice
with leaven; neither shall the sacrifice of the feast of the passover
be left unto the morning.
34:26: The first of the firstfruits of thy land
thou shalt bring unto the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt
not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.
34:27: And the LORD said unto Moses, Write thou
these words: for after the tenor of these words I have made a
covenant with thee and with Israel.
34:28: And he was there with the LORD forty days
and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water.
And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten
commandments.
34:29: And it came to pass, when Moses came down
from mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses' hand,
when he came down from the mount, that Moses wist not that the
skin of his face shone while he talked with him.
34:30: And when Aaron and all the children of
Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they
were afraid to come nigh him.
34:31: And Moses called unto them; and Aaron and
all the rulers of the congregation returned unto him: and Moses
talked with them.
34:32: And afterward all the children of Israel
came nigh: and he gave them in commandment all that the LORD had
spoken with him in mount Sinai.
34:33: And till Moses had done speaking with them,
he put a vail on his face.
34:34: But when Moses went in before the LORD
to speak with him, he took the vail off, until he came out. And
he came out, and spake unto the children of Israel that which
he was commanded.
34:35: And the children of Israel saw the face
of Moses, that the skin of Moses' face shone: and Moses put the
vail upon his face again, until he went in to speak with him.
35:1: And Moses gathered all the congregation
of the children of Israel together, and said unto them, These
are the words which the LORD hath commanded, that ye should do
them.
35:2: Six days shall work be done, but on the
seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest
to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death.
35:3: Ye shall kindle no fire throughout your
habitations upon the sabbath day.
35:4: And Moses spake unto all the congregation
of the children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the
LORD commanded, saying,
35:5: Take ye from among you an offering unto
the LORD: whosoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, an
offering of the LORD; gold, and silver, and brass,
35:6: And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine
linen, and goats' hair,
35:7: And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins,
and shittim wood,
35:8: And oil for the light, and spices for anointing
oil, and for the sweet incense,
35:9: And onyx stones, and stones to be set for
the ephod, and for the breastplate.
35:10: And every wise hearted among you shall
come, and make all that the LORD hath commanded;
35:11: The tabernacle, his tent, and his covering,
his taches, and his boards, his bars, his pillars, and his sockets,
35:12: The ark, and the staves thereof, with the
mercy seat, and the vail of the covering,
35:13: The table, and his staves, and all his
vessels, and the shewbread,
35:14: The candlestick also for the light, and
his furniture, and his lamps, with the oil for the light,
35:15: And the incense altar, and his staves,
and the anointing oil, and the sweet incense, and the hanging
for the door at the entering in of the tabernacle,
35:16: The altar of burnt offering, with his brasen
grate, his staves, and all his vessels, the laver and his foot,
35:17: The hangings of the court, his pillars,
and their sockets, and the hanging for the door of the court,
35:18: The pins of the tabernacle, and the pins
of the court, and their cords,
35:19: The cloths of service, to do service in
the holy place, the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the
garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office.
35:20: And all the congregation of the children
of Israel departed from the presence of Moses.
35:21: And they came, every one whose heart stirred
him up, and every one whom his spirit made willing, and they brought
the LORD's offering to the work of the tabernacle of the congregation,
and for all his service, and for the holy garments.
35:22: And they came, both men and women, as many
as were willing hearted, and brought bracelets, and earrings,
and rings, and tablets, all jewels of gold: and every man that
offered offered an offering of gold unto the LORD.
35:23: And every man, with whom was found blue,
and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair, and
red skins of rams, and badgers' skins, brought them.
35:24: Every one that did offer an offering of
silver and brass brought the LORD's offering: and every man, with
whom was found shittim wood for any work of the service, brought
it.
35:25: And all the women that were wise hearted
did spin with their hands, and brought that which they had spun,
both of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, and of fine linen.
35:26: And all the women whose heart stirred them
up in wisdom spun goats' hair.
35:27: And the rulers brought onyx stones, and
stones to be set, for the ephod, and for the breastplate;
35:28: And spice, and oil for the light, and for
the anointing oil, and for the sweet incense.
35:29: The children of Israel brought a willing
offering unto the LORD, every man and woman, whose heart made
them willing to bring for all manner of work, which the LORD had
commanded to be made by the hand of Moses.
35:30: And Moses said unto the children of Israel,
See, the LORD hath called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the
son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah;
35:31: And he hath filled him with the spirit
of God, in wisdom, in understanding, and in knowledge, and in
all manner of workmanship;
35:32: And to devise curious works, to work in
gold, and in silver, and in brass,
35:33: And in the cutting of stones, to set them,
and in carving of wood, to make any manner of cunning work.
35:34: And he hath put in his heart that he may
teach, both he, and Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe
of Dan.
35:35: Them hath he filled with wisdom of heart,
to work all manner of work, of the engraver, and of the cunning
workman, and of the embroiderer, in blue, and in purple, in scarlet,
and in fine linen, and of the weaver, even of them that do any
work, and of those that devise cunning work.
36:1: Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every
wise hearted man, in whom the LORD put wisdom and understanding
to know how to work all manner of work for the service of the
sanctuary, according to all that the LORD had commanded.
36:2: And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and
every wise hearted man, in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom,
even every one whose heart stirred him up to come unto the work
to do it:
36:3: And they received of Moses all the offering,
which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service
of the sanctuary, to make it withal. And they brought yet unto
him free offerings every morning.
36:4: And all the wise men, that wrought all the
work of the sanctuary, came every man from his work which they
made;
36:5: And they spake unto Moses, saying, The people
bring much more than enough for the service of the work, which
the LORD commanded to make.
36:6: And Moses gave commandment, and they caused
it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man
nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary.
So the people were restrained from bringing.
36:7: For the stuff they had was sufficient for
all the work to make it, and too much.
36:8: And every wise hearted man among them that
wrought the work of the tabernacle made ten curtains of fine twined
linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning
work made he them.
36:9: The length of one curtain was twenty and
eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: the
curtains were all of one size.
36:10: And he coupled the five curtains one unto
another: and the other five curtains he coupled one unto another.
36:11: And he made loops of blue on the edge of
one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling: likewise he made
in the uttermost side of another curtain, in the coupling of the
second.
36:12: Fifty loops made he in one curtain, and
fifty loops made he in the edge of the curtain which was in the
coupling of the second: the loops held one curtain to another.
36:13: And he made fifty taches of gold, and coupled
the curtains one unto another with the taches: so it became one
tabernacle.
36:14: And he made curtains of goats' hair for
the tent over the tabernacle: eleven curtains he made them.
36:15: The length of one curtain was thirty cubits,
and four cubits was the breadth of one curtain: the eleven curtains
were of one size.
36:16: And he coupled five curtains by themselves,
and six curtains by themselves.
36:17: And he made fifty loops upon the uttermost
edge of the curtain in the coupling, and fifty loops made he upon
the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second.
36:18: And he made fifty taches of brass to couple
the tent together, that it might be one.
36:19: And he made a covering for the tent of
rams' skins dyed red, and a covering of badgers' skins above that.
36:20: And he made boards for the tabernacle of
shittim wood, standing up.
36:21: The length of a board was ten cubits, and
the breadth of a board one cubit and a half.
36:22: One board had two tenons, equally distant
one from another: thus did he make for all the boards of the tabernacle.
36:23: And he made boards for the tabernacle;
twenty boards for the south side southward:
36:24: And forty sockets of silver he made under
the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for his two tenons,
and two sockets under another board for his two tenons.
36:25: And for the other side of the tabernacle,
which is toward the north corner, he made twenty boards,
36:26: And their forty sockets of silver; two
sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.
36:27: And for the sides of the tabernacle westward
he made six boards.
36:28: And two boards made he for the corners
of the tabernacle in the two sides.
36:29: And they were coupled beneath, and coupled
together at the head thereof, to one ring: thus he did to both
of them in both the corners.
36:30: And there were eight boards; and their
sockets were sixteen sockets of silver, under every board two
sockets.
36:31: And he made bars of shittim wood; five
for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,
36:32: And five bars for the boards of the other
side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle
for the sides westward.
36:33: And he made the middle bar to shoot through
the boards from the one end to the other.
36:34: And he overlaid the boards with gold, and
made their rings of gold to be places for the bars, and overlaid
the bars with gold.
36:35: And he made a vail of blue, and purple,
and scarlet, and fine twined linen: with cherubims made he it
of cunning work.
36:36: And he made thereunto four pillars of shittim
wood, and overlaid them with gold: their hooks were of gold; and
he cast for them four sockets of silver.
36:37: And he made an hanging for the tabernacle
door of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen,
of needlework;
36:38: And the five pillars of it with their hooks:
and he overlaid their chapiters and their fillets with gold: but
their five sockets were of brass.
37:1: And Bezaleel made the ark of shittim wood:
two cubits and a half was the length of it, and a cubit and a
half the breadth of it, and a cubit and a half the height of it:
37:2: And he overlaid it with pure gold within
and without, and made a crown of gold to it round about.
37:3: And he cast for it four rings of gold, to
be set by the four corners of it; even two rings upon the one
side of it, and two rings upon the other side of it.
37:4: And he made staves of shittim wood, and
overlaid them with gold.
37:5: And he put the staves into the rings by
the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.
37:6: And he made the mercy seat of pure gold:
two cubits and a half was the length thereof, and one cubit and
a half the breadth thereof.
37:7: And he made two cherubims of gold, beaten
out of one piece made he them, on the two ends of the mercy seat;
37:8: One cherub on the end on this side, and
another cherub on the other end on that side: out of the mercy
seat made he the cherubims on the two ends thereof.
37:9: And the cherubims spread out their wings
on high, and covered with their wings over the mercy seat, with
their faces one to another; even to the mercy seatward were the
faces of the cherubims.
37:10: And he made the table of shittim wood:
two cubits was the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof,
and a cubit and a half the height thereof:
37:11: And he overlaid it with pure gold, and
made thereunto a crown of gold round about.
37:12: Also he made thereunto a border of an handbreadth
round about; and made a crown of gold for the border thereof round
about.
37:13: And he cast for it four rings of gold,
and put the rings upon the four corners that were in the four
feet thereof.
37:14: Over against the border were the rings,
the places for the staves to bear the table.
37:15: And he made the staves of shittim wood,
and overlaid them with gold, to bear the table.
37:16: And he made the vessels which were upon
the table, his dishes, and his spoons, and his bowls, and his
covers to cover withal, of pure gold.
37:17: And he made the candlestick of pure gold:
of beaten work made he the candlestick; his shaft, and his branch,
his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, were of the same:
37:18: And six branches going 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:
37:19: Three bowls made after the fashion of almonds
in one branch, a knop and a flower; and three bowls made like
almonds in another branch, a knop and a flower: so throughout
the six branches going out of the candlestick.
37:20: And in the candlestick were four bowls
made like almonds, his knops, and his flowers:
37:21: And a knop under two branches of the same,
and a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two
branches of the same, according to the six branches going out
of it.
37:22: Their knops and their branches were of
the same: all of it was one beaten work of pure gold.
37:23: And he made his seven lamps, and his snuffers,
and his snuffdishes, of pure gold.
37:24: Of a talent of pure gold made he it, and
all the vessels thereof.
37:25: And he made the incense altar of shittim
wood: the length of it was a cubit, and the breadth of it a cubit;
it was foursquare; and two cubits was the height of it; the horns
thereof were of the same.
37:26: And he overlaid it with pure gold, both
the top of it, and the sides thereof round about, and the horns
of it: also he made unto it a crown of gold round about.
37:27: And he made two rings of gold for it under
the crown thereof, by the two corners of it, upon the two sides
thereof, to be places for the staves to bear it withal.
37:28: And he made the staves of shittim wood,
and overlaid them with gold.
37:29: And he made the holy anointing oil, and
the pure incense of sweet spices, according to the work of the
apothecary.
38:1: And he made the altar of burnt offering
of shittim wood: five cubits was the length thereof, and five
cubits the breadth thereof; it was foursquare; and three cubits
the height thereof.
38:2: And he made the horns thereof on the four
corners of it; the horns thereof were of the same: and he overlaid
it with brass.
38:3: And he made all the vessels of the altar,
the pots, and the shovels, and the basons, and the fleshhooks,
and the firepans: all the vessels thereof made he of brass.
38:4: And he made for the altar a brasen grate
of network under the compass thereof beneath unto the midst of
it.
38:5: And he cast four rings for the four ends
of the grate of brass, to be places for the staves.
38:6: And he made the staves of shittim wood,
and overlaid them with brass.
38:7: And he put the staves into the rings on
the sides of the altar, to bear it withal; he made the altar hollow
with boards.
38:8: And he made the laver of brass, and the
foot of it of brass, of the lookingglasses of the women assembling,
which assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
38:9: And he made the court: on the south side
southward the hangings of the court were of fine twined linen,
an hundred cubits:
38:10: Their pillars were twenty, and their brasen
sockets twenty; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were
of silver.
38:11: And for the north side the hangings were
an hundred cubits, their pillars were twenty, and their sockets
of brass twenty; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of
silver.
38:12: And for the west side were hangings of
fifty cubits, their pillars ten, and their sockets ten; the hooks
of the pillars and their fillets of silver.
38:13: And for the east side eastward fifty cubits.
38:14: The hangings of the one side of the gate
were fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three.
38:15: And for the other side of the court gate,
on this hand and that hand, were hangings of fifteen cubits; their
pillars three, and their sockets three.
38:16: All the hangings of the court round about
were of fine twined linen.
38:17: And the sockets for the pillars were of
brass; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of silver; and
the overlaying of their chapiters of silver; and all the pillars
of the court were filleted with silver.
38:18: And the hanging for the gate of the court
was needlework, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined
linen: and twenty cubits was the length, and the height in the
breadth was five cubits, answerable to the hangings of the court.
38:19: And their pillars were four, and their
sockets of brass four; their hooks of silver, and the overlaying
of their chapiters and their fillets of silver.
38:20: And all the pins of the tabernacle, and
of the court round about, were of brass.
38:21: This is the sum of the tabernacle, even
of the tabernacle of testimony, as it was counted, according to
the commandment of Moses, for the service of the Levites, by the
hand of Ithamar, son to Aaron the priest.
38:22: And Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of
Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that the LORD commanded Moses.
38:23: And with him was Aholiab, son of Ahisamach,
of the tribe of Dan, an engraver, and a cunning workman, and an
embroiderer in blue, and in purple, and in scarlet, and fine linen.
38:24: All the gold that was occupied for the
work in all the work of the holy place, even the gold of the offering,
was twenty and nine talents, and seven hundred and thirty shekels,
after the shekel of the sanctuary.
38:25: And the silver of them that were numbered
of the congregation was an hundred talents, and a thousand seven
hundred and threescore and fifteen shekels, after the shekel of
the sanctuary:
38:26: A bekah for every man, that is, half a
shekel, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for every one that
went to be numbered, from twenty years old and upward, for six
hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty
men.
38:27: And of the hundred talents of silver were
cast the sockets of the sanctuary, and the sockets of the vail;
an hundred sockets of the hundred talents, a talent for a socket.
38:28: And of the thousand seven hundred seventy
and five shekels he made hooks for the pillars, and overlaid their
chapiters, and filleted them.
38:29: And the brass of the offering was seventy
talents, and two thousand and four hundred shekels.
38:30: And therewith he made the sockets to the
door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the brasen altar,
and the brasen grate for it, and all the vessels of the altar,
38:31: And the sockets of the court round about,
and the sockets of the court gate, and all the pins of the tabernacle,
and all the pins of the court round about.
39:1: And of the blue, and purple, and scarlet,
they made cloths of service, to do service in the holy place,
and made the holy garments for Aaron; as the LORD commanded Moses.
39:2: And he made the ephod of gold, blue, and
purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.
39:3: And they did beat the gold into thin plates,
and cut it into wires, to work it in the blue, and in the purple,
and in the scarlet, and in the fine linen, with cunning work.
39:4: They made shoulderpieces for it, to couple
it together: by the two edges was it coupled together.
39:5: And the curious girdle of his ephod, that
was upon it, was of the same, according to the work thereof; of
gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen; as
the LORD commanded Moses.
39:6: And they wrought onyx stones inclosed in
ouches of gold, graven, as signets are graven, with the names
of the children of Israel.
39:7: And he put them on the shoulders of the
ephod, that they should be stones for a memorial to the children
of Israel; as the LORD commanded Moses.
39:8: And he made the breastplate of cunning work,
like the work of the ephod; of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet,
and fine twined linen.
39:9: It was foursquare; they made the breastplate
double: a span was the length thereof, and a span the breadth
thereof, being doubled.
39:10: And they set in it four rows of stones:
the first row was a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this was
the first row.
39:11: And the second row, an emerald, a sapphire,
and a diamond.
39:12: And the third row, a ligure, an agate,
and an amethyst.
39:13: And the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and
a jasper: they were inclosed in ouches of gold in their inclosings.
39:14: And the stones were according to the names
of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like
the engravings of a signet, every one with his name, according
to the twelve tribes.
39:15: And they made upon the breastplate chains
at the ends, of wreathen work of pure gold.
39:16: And they made two ouches of gold, and two
gold rings; and put the two rings in the two ends of the breastplate.
39:17: And they put the two wreathen chains of
gold in the two rings on the ends of the breastplate.
39:18: And the two ends of the two wreathen chains
they fastened in the two ouches, and put them on the shoulderpieces
of the ephod, before it.
39:19: And they made two rings of gold, and put
them on the two ends of the breastplate, upon the border of it,
which was on the side of the ephod inward.
39:20: And they made two other golden rings, and
put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, toward the
forepart of it, over against the other coupling thereof, above
the curious girdle of the ephod.
39:21: And they did bind the breastplate by his
rings unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it
might be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and that the breastplate
might not be loosed from the ephod; as the LORD commanded Moses.
39:22: And he made the robe of the ephod of woven
work, all of blue.
39:23: And there was an hole in the midst of the
robe, as the hole of an habergeon, with a band round about the
hole, that it should not rend.
39:24: And they made upon the hems of the robe
pomegranates of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen.
39:25: And they made bells of pure gold, and put
the bells between the pomegranates upon the hem of the robe, round
about between the pomegranates;
39:26: A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a
pomegranate, round about the hem of the robe to minister in; as
the LORD commanded Moses.
39:27: And they made coats of fine linen of woven
work for Aaron, and for his sons,
39:28: And a mitre of fine linen, and goodly bonnets
of fine linen, and linen breeches of fine twined linen,
39:29: And a girdle of fine twined linen, and
blue, and purple, and scarlet, of needlework; as the LORD commanded
Moses.
39:30: And they made the plate of the holy crown
of pure gold, and wrote upon it a writing, like to the engravings
of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD.
39:31: And they tied unto it a lace of blue, to
fasten it on high upon the mitre; as the LORD commanded Moses.
39:32: Thus was all the work of the tabernacle
of the tent of the congregation finished: and the children of
Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so
did they.
39:33: And they brought the tabernacle unto Moses,
the tent, and all his furniture, his taches, his boards, his bars,
and his pillars, and his sockets,
39:34: And the covering of rams' skins dyed red,
and the covering of badgers' skins, and the vail of the covering,
39:35: The ark of the testimony, and the staves
thereof, and the mercy seat,
39:36: The table, and all the vessels thereof,
and the shewbread,
39:37: The pure candlestick, with the lamps thereof,
even with the lamps to be set in order, and all the vessels thereof,
and the oil for light,
39:38: And the golden altar, and the anointing
oil, and the sweet incense, and the hanging for the tabernacle
door,
39:39: The brasen altar, and his grate of brass,
his staves, and all his vessels, the laver and his foot,
39:40: The hangings of the court, his pillars,
and his sockets, and the hanging for the court gate, his cords,
and his pins, and all the vessels of the service of the tabernacle,
for the tent of the congregation,
39:41: The cloths of service to do service in
the holy place, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and
his sons' garments, to minister in the priest's office.
39:42: According to all that the LORD commanded
Moses, so the children of Israel made all the work.
39:43: And Moses did look upon all the work, and,
behold, they have done it as the LORD had commanded, even so had
they done it: and Moses blessed them.
40:1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
40:2: On the first day of the first month shalt
thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
40:3: And thou shalt put therein the ark of the
testimony, and cover the ark with the vail.
40:4: 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 the lamps thereof.
40:5: And thou shalt set the altar of gold for
the incense before the ark of the testimony, and put the hanging
of the door to the tabernacle.
40:6: And thou shalt set the altar of the burnt
offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the
congregation.
40:7: And thou shalt set the laver between the
tent of the congregation and the altar, and shalt put water therein.
40:8: And thou shalt set up the court round about,
and hang up the hanging at the court gate.
40:9: And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and
anoint the tabernacle, and all that is therein, and shalt hallow
it, and all the vessels thereof: and it shall be holy.
40:10: And thou shalt anoint the altar of the
burnt offering, and all his vessels, and sanctify the altar: and
it shall be an altar most holy.
40:11: And thou shalt anoint the laver and his
foot, and sanctify it.
40:12: And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons
unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash
them with water.
40:13: And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy
garments, and anoint him, and sanctify him; that he may minister
unto me in the priest's office.
40:14: And thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe
them with coats:
40:15: And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst
anoint their father, that they may minister unto me in the priest's
office: for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood
throughout their generations.
40:16: Thus did Moses: according to all that the
LORD commanded him, so did he.
40:17: And it came to pass in the first month
in the second year, on the first day of the month, that the tabernacle
was reared up.
40:18: And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and
fastened his sockets, and set up the boards thereof, and put in
the bars thereof, and reared up his pillars.
40:19: And he spread abroad the tent over the
tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above upon it; as
the LORD commanded Moses.
40:20: And he took and put the testimony into
the ark, and set the staves on the ark, and put the mercy seat
above upon the ark:
40:21: And he brought the ark into the tabernacle,
and set up the vail of the covering, and covered the ark of the
testimony; as the LORD commanded Moses.
40:22: And he put the table in the tent of the
congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without
the vail.
40:23: And he set the bread in order upon it before
the LORD; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
40:24: And he put the candlestick in the tent
of the congregation, over against the table, on the side of the
tabernacle southward.
40:25: And he lighted the lamps before the LORD;
as the LORD commanded Moses.
40:26: And he put the golden altar in the tent
of the congregation before the vail:
40:27: And he burnt sweet incense thereon; as
the LORD commanded Moses.
40:28: And he set up the hanging at the door of
the tabernacle.
40:29: And he put the altar of burnt offering
by the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation,
and offered upon it the burnt offering and the meat offering;
as the LORD commanded Moses.
40:30: And he set the laver between the tent of
the congregation and the altar, and put water there, to wash withal.
40:31: And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed
their hands and their feet thereat:
40:32: When they went into the tent of the congregation,
and when they came near unto the altar, they washed; as the LORD
commanded Moses.
40:33: And he reared up the court round about
the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the hanging of the court
gate. So Moses finished the work.
40:34: Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation,
and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
40:35: And Moses was not able to enter into the
tent of the congregation, because the cloud abode thereon, and
the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
40:36: And when the cloud was taken up from over
the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their
journeys:
40:37: But if the cloud were not taken up, then
they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up.
40:38: For the cloud of the LORD was upon the
tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night, in the sight of
all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
