Exodus 40:17-33

New King James Version

¹⁷ And it came to pass in the first month of the second year, on the first day of the month, that the ^(A)tabernacle was ^[a]raised up. ¹⁸ So Moses raised up the tabernacle, fastened its sockets, set up its boards, put in its bars, and raised up its pillars. ¹⁹ And he spread out the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent on top of it, as the Lord had commanded Moses. ²⁰ He took ^(B)the Testimony and put it into the ark, inserted the poles through the rings of the ark, and put the mercy seat on top of the ark. ²¹ And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, ^(C)hung up the veil of the covering, and partitioned off the ark of the Testimony, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

^22 (D)He put the table in the tabernacle of meeting, on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil; ^23 (E)and he set the bread in order upon it before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses. ^24 (F)He put the lampstand in the tabernacle of meeting, across from the table, on the south side of the tabernacle; ²⁵ and ^(G)he lit the lamps before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses. ^26 (H)He put the gold altar in the tabernacle of meeting in front of the veil; ^27 (I)and he burned sweet incense on it, as the Lord had commanded Moses. ^28 (J)He hung up the screen at the door of the tabernacle. ^29 (K)And he put the altar of burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and ^(L)offered upon it the burnt offering and the grain offering, as the Lord had commanded Moses. ^30 (M)He set the laver between the tabernacle of meeting and the altar, and put water there for washing; ³¹ and Moses, Aaron, and his sons would ^(N)wash their hands and their feet with water from it. ³² Whenever they went into the tabernacle of meeting, and when they came near the altar, they washed, ^(O)as the Lord had commanded Moses. ^33 (P)And he raised up the court all around the tabernacle and the altar, and hung up the screen of the court gate. So Moses ^(Q)finished the work.
