Exodus 39:1-40:38
And of the blue, and purple, and scarlet, they made cloths of service, to do service in the holy[ place], and made the holy garments for Aaron; as the LORD commanded Moses.And he made the ephod[ of] gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.And they did beat the gold into thin plates, and cut[ it into] wires, to work[ it] in the blue, and in the purple, and in the scarlet, and in the fine linen,[ with] cunning work.They made shoulderpieces for it, to couple[ it] together: by the two edges was it coupled together.And the curious girdle of his ephod, that[ was] upon it,[ was] of the same, according to the work thereof;[ of] gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen; as the LORD commanded Moses.And they wrought onyx stones inclosed in ouches of gold, graven, as signets are graven, with the names of the children of Israel.And he put them on the shoulders of the ephod,[ that they should be] stones for a memorial to the children of Israel; as the LORD commanded Moses.And he made the breastplate[ of] cunning work, like the work of the ephod;[ of] gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.It was foursquare; they made the breastplate double: a span[ was] the length thereof, and a span the breadth thereof,[ being] doubled.And they set in it four rows of stones:[ the first] row[ was] a sardius, a topaz, and a carbuncle: this[ was] the first row.And the second row, an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.And the third row, a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.And the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper:[ they were] inclosed in ouches of gold in their inclosings.And the stones[ were] according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names,[ like] the engravings of a signet, every one with his name, according to the twelve tribes.And they made upon the breastplate chains at the ends,[ of] wreathen work[ of] pure gold.And they made two ouches[ of] gold, and two gold rings; and put the two rings in the two ends of the breastplate.And they put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings on the ends of the breastplate.And the two ends of the two wreathen chains they fastened in the two ouches, and put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod, before it.And they made two rings of gold, and put[ them] on the two ends of the breastplate, upon the border of it, which[ was] on the side of the ephod inward.And they made two[ other] golden rings, and put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath, toward the forepart of it, over against the[ other] coupling thereof, above the curious girdle of the ephod.And they did bind the breastplate by his rings unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it might be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and that the breastplate might not be loosed from the ephod; as the LORD commanded Moses.And he made the robe of the ephod[ of] woven work, all[ of] blue.And[ there was] an hole in the midst of the robe, as the hole of an habergeon,[ with] a band round about the hole, that it should not rend.And they made upon the hems of the robe pomegranates[ of] blue, and purple, and scarlet,[ and] twined[ linen].And they made bells[ of] pure gold, and put the bells between the pomegranates upon the hem of the robe, round about between the pomegranates;A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, round about the hem of the robe to minister[ in]; as the LORD commanded Moses.And they made coats[ of] fine linen[ of] woven work for Aaron, and for his sons,And a mitre[ of] fine linen, and goodly bonnets[ of] fine linen, and linen breeches[ of] fine twined linen,And a girdle[ of] fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet,[ of] needlework; as the LORD commanded Moses.And they made the plate of the holy crown[ of] pure gold, and wrote upon it a writing,[ like to] the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD.And they tied unto it a lace of blue, to fasten[ it] on high upon the mitre; as the LORD commanded Moses.Thus was all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation finished: and the children of Israel did according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they.And they brought the tabernacle unto Moses, the tent, and all his furniture, his taches, his boards, his bars, and his pillars, and his sockets,And the covering of rams’ skins dyed red, and the covering of badgers’ skins, and the vail of the covering,The ark of the testimony, and the staves thereof, and the mercy seat,The table,[ and] all the vessels thereof, and the shewbread,The pure candlestick,[ with] the lamps thereof,[ even with] the lamps to be set in order, and all the vessels thereof, and the oil for light,And the golden altar, and the anointing oil, and the sweet incense, and the hanging for the tabernacle door,The brasen altar, and his grate of brass, his staves, and all his vessels, the laver and his foot,The hangings of the court, his pillars, and his sockets, and the hanging for the court gate, his cords, and his pins, and all the vessels of the service of the tabernacle, for the tent of the congregation,The cloths of service to do service in the holy[ place], and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and his sons’ garments, to minister in the priest’s office.According to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so the children of Israel made all the work.And Moses did look upon all the work, and, behold, they had done it as the LORD had commanded, even so had they done it: and Moses blessed them.And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,On the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.And thou shalt put therein the ark of the testimony, and cover the ark with the vail.And thou shalt bring in the table, and set in order the things that are to be set in order upon it; and thou shalt bring in the candlestick, and light the lamps thereof.And thou shalt set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the testimony, and put the hanging of the door to the tabernacle.And thou shalt set the altar of the burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.And thou shalt set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and shalt put water therein.And thou shalt set up the court round about, and hang up the hanging at the court gate.And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that[ is] therein, and shalt hallow it, and all the vessels thereof: and it shall be holy.And thou shalt anoint the altar of the burnt offering, and all his vessels, and sanctify the altar: and it shall be an altar most holy.And thou shalt anoint the laver and his foot, and sanctify it.And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water.And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments, and anoint him, and sanctify him; that he may minister unto me in the priest’s office.And thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe them with coats:And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint their father, that they may minister unto me in the priest’s office: for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.Thus did Moses: according to all that the LORD commanded him, so did he.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 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 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 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 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 put the table in the tent of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without the vail.And he set the bread in order upon it before the LORD; as the LORD had commanded Moses.And he put the candlestick in the tent of the congregation, over against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.And he lighted the lamps before the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.And he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation before the vail:And he burnt sweet incense thereon; as the LORD commanded Moses.And he set up the hanging[ at] the door of the tabernacle.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 laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and put water there, to wash[ withal].And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet thereat:When they went into the tent of the congregation, and when they came near unto the altar, they washed; as the LORD commanded Moses.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.Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the LORD 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 when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their journeys:But if the cloud were not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up.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.
