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.”
16. This Moses did; according to all that the Lord commanded him, so he did.
17. In the first month in the second year, on the first day of the month, the tabernacle was erected.
18. Moses erected the tabernacle. He laid its bases, and set up its frames, and put in its poles, and raised up its pillars.
19. And he spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent over it, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
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.
21. And he brought the ark into the tabernacle and set up the veil of the screen, and screened the ark of the testimony, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
22. He put the table in the tent of meeting, on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil,
23. and arranged the bread on it before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
24. He put the lampstand in the tent of meeting, opposite the table on the south side of the tabernacle,
25. and set up the lamps before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
26. He put the golden altar in the tent of meeting before the veil,
27. and burned fragrant incense on it, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
