Exodus 40:17-33

¹⁷Now in the first month of the second year, on the first day of the month, the tabernacle was erected. ¹⁸Moses erected the tabernacle and laid its sockets, and set up its boards, and inserted its bars and erected its pillars. ¹⁹He spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent on top of it, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. ²⁰Then he took the testimony and put it into the ark, and attached the poles to the ark, and put the mercy seat on top of the ark. ²¹He brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up a veil for the screen, and screened off the ark of the testimony, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. ²²Then he put the table in the tent of meeting on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil. ²³He set the arrangement of bread in order on it before the Lord, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. ²⁴Then he placed the lampstand in the tent of meeting, opposite the table, on the south side of the tabernacle. ²⁵He lighted the lamps before the Lord, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. ²⁶Then he placed the gold altar in the tent of meeting in front of the veil; ²⁷and he burned fragrant incense on it, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. ²⁸Then he set up the veil for the doorway of the tabernacle. ²⁹He set the altar of burnt offering before the doorway of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and offered on it the burnt offering and the meal offering, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. ³⁰He placed the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing. ³¹From it Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet. ³²When they entered the tent of meeting, and when they approached the altar, they washed, just as the Lord had commanded Moses. ³³He erected the court all around the tabernacle and the altar, and hung up the veil for the gateway of the court. Thus Moses finished the work.
