Exodus 40:1-8

1Then the Lord spoke to Moses:

2“On the first day of the first month you are to set up the tabernacle, the tent of meeting.

3You are to place the ark of the testimony in it and shield the ark with the special curtain.

4You are to bring in the table and set out the things that belong on it; then you are to bring in the lampstand and set up its lamps.

5You are to put the gold altar for incense in front of the ark of the testimony and put the curtain at the entrance to the tabernacle.

6You are to put the altar for the burnt offering in front of the entrance to the tabernacle, the tent of meeting.

7You are to put the large basin between the tent of meeting and the altar and put water in it.

8You are to set up the courtyard around it and put the curtain at the gate of the courtyard.
