Exodus 40:18-33

18So Moses raised up the tabernacle, fastened its sockets, set up its boards, put in its bars, and raised up its pillars.

19And 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.

20He took 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.

21And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, hung up the veil of the covering, and partitioned off the ark of the Testimony, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

22He put the table in the tabernacle of meeting, on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil;

23and he set the bread in order upon it before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

24He put the lampstand in the tabernacle of meeting, across from the table, on the south side of the tabernacle;

25and he lit the lamps before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

26He put the gold altar in the tabernacle of meeting in front of the veil;

27and he burned sweet incense on it, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

28He hung up the screen at the door of the tabernacle.

29And he put the altar of burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and offered upon it the burnt offering and the grain offering, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

30He set the laver between the tabernacle of meeting and the altar, and put water there for washing;

31and Moses, Aaron, and his sons would wash their hands and their feet with water from it.

32Whenever they went into the tabernacle of meeting, and when they came near the altar, they washed, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

33And he raised up the court all around the tabernacle and the altar, and hung up the screen of the court gate. So Moses finished the work.
