7. and place the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it.
8. And you shall set up the court all around, and hang up the screen for the gate of the court.
9. “Then you shall take the anointing oil and anoint the tabernacle and all that is in it, and consecrate it and all its furniture, so that it may become holy.
10. You shall also anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils, and consecrate the altar, so that the altar may become most holy.
11. You shall also anoint the basin and its stand, and consecrate it.
12. Then you shall bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the tent of meeting and shall wash them with water
13. and put on Aaron the holy garments. And you shall anoint him and consecrate him, that he may serve me as priest.
14. You shall bring his sons also and put coats on them,
15. and anoint them, as you anointed their father, that they may serve me as priests. And their anointing shall admit them to a perpetual priesthood throughout their generations.”

20. He took the testimony and put it into the ark, and put the poles on the ark and set the mercy seat above on the ark.
