According to all that Yahweh commanded him, so he did.Thus did Moses: according to all that the Lord commanded him, so did he.Thus did Moses: according to all that Jehovah commanded him, so did he.17So the tabernacle was set up on the first day of the first month of the second year.In the first month in the second year, on the first day of the month, the tabernacle was raised up.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.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.18When Moses set up the tabernacle, he laid its bases, positioned its frames, inserted its crossbars, and set up its posts.Moses raised up the tabernacle, and laid its sockets, and set up its boards, and put in its bars, and raised up its pillars.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.And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and laid its sockets, and set up the boards thereof, and put in the bars thereof, and reared up its pillars.19Then he spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering over the tent, just as the LORD had commanded him.He spread the covering over the tent, and put the roof of the tabernacle above on it, as Yahweh commanded Moses.And he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above upon it; as the Lord commanded Moses.And he spread the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above upon it; as Jehovah commanded Moses.20Moses took the Testimony and placed it in the ark, attaching the poles to the ark; and he set the mercy seat atop the ark.He took and put the covenant into the ark, and set the poles on the ark, and put the mercy seat above on the ark.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: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:21Then he brought the ark into the tabernacle, put up the veil for the screen, and shielded off the ark of the Testimony, just as the LORD had commanded him.He brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the veil of the screen, and screened the ark of the covenant, as Yahweh commanded Moses.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.and he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the veil of the screen, and screened the ark of the testimony; as Jehovah commanded Moses.22Moses placed the table in the Tent of Meeting on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil.He put the table in the Tent of Meeting, on the north side of the tabernacle, outside of the veil.And he put the table in the tent of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without the vail.And he put the table in the tent of meeting, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without the veil.23He arranged the bread on it before the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him.He set the bread in order on it before Yahweh, as Yahweh commanded Moses.And he set the bread in order upon it before the Lord; as the Lord had commanded Moses.And he set the bread in order upon it before Jehovah; as Jehovah commanded Moses.24He also placed the lampstand in the Tent of Meeting opposite the table on the south side of the tabernacleHe put the lamp stand in the Tent of Meeting, opposite the table, on the south side of the tabernacle.And he put the candlestick in the tent of the congregation, over against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.And he put the candlestick in the tent of meeting, over against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.25and set up the lamps before the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him.He lit the lamps before Yahweh, as Yahweh commanded Moses.And he lighted the lamps before the Lord; as the Lord commanded Moses.And he lighted the lamps before Jehovah; as Jehovah commanded Moses.26Moses placed the gold altar in the Tent of Meeting, in front of the veil,He put the golden altar in the Tent of Meeting before the veil;And he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation before the vail:And he put the golden altar in the tent of meeting before the veil:27and he burned fragrant incense on it, just as the LORD had commanded him.and he burned incense of sweet spices on it, as Yahweh commanded Moses.And he burnt sweet incense thereon; as the Lord commanded Moses.and he burnt thereon incense of sweet spices; as Jehovah commanded Moses.28Then he put up the curtain at the entrance to the tabernacle.He put up the screen of the door to the tabernacle.And he set up the hanging at the door of the tabernacle.And he put the screen of the door to the tabernacle.29He 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 the LORD had commanded him.He set the altar of burnt offering at the door of the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting, and offered on it the burnt offering and the meal offering, as Yahweh commanded Moses.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.And he set the altar of burnt-offering at the door of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and offered upon it the burnt-offering and the meal-offering; as Jehovah commanded Moses.30He placed the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing;He set the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar, and put water therein, with which to wash.And he set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and put water there, to wash withal.And he set the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water therein, wherewith to wash.31and from it Moses, Aaron, and his sons washed their hands and feet.Moses, Aaron, and his sons washed their hands and their feet there.And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet thereat:And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet thereat;32They washed whenever they entered the Tent of Meeting or approached the altar, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.When they went into the Tent of Meeting, and when they came near to the altar, they washed, as Yahweh commanded Moses.When they went into the tent of the congregation, and when they came near unto the altar, they washed; as the Lord commanded Moses.when they went into the tent of meeting, and when they came near unto the altar, they washed; as Jehovah commanded Moses.33And 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.He raised up the court around the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the screen of the gate of the court. So Moses finished the work.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.And he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the screen of the gate of the court. So Moses finished the work.34Then the cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.Then the cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and Yahweh’s glory filled the tabernacle.Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle.35Moses was unable to enter the Tent of Meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.Moses wasn’t able to enter into the Tent of Meeting, because the cloud stayed on it, and Yahweh’s glory filled the tabernacle.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.And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of meeting, because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle.36Whenever the cloud was lifted from above the tabernacle, the Israelites would set out through all the stages of their journey.When the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward, throughout all their journeys;And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their journeys:And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward, throughout all their journeys:37If the cloud was not lifted, they would not set out until the day it was taken up.but if the cloud wasn’t taken up, then they didn’t travel until the day that it was taken up.But if the cloud were not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up.but if the cloud was not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up.38For the cloud of 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.For the cloud of Yahweh was on the tabernacle by day, and there was fire in the cloud by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.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.For the cloud of Jehovah was upon the tabernacle by day, and there was fire therein by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
