15. And thou shalt anoint them as thou didst anoint their father, and they shall be my priests; and it shall be that their anointing shall be unto them for a perpetual priesthood throughout their generations.
16. Thus did Moses; according to all that the Lord commanded him, so did he.
17. And it came to pass in the first month in the second year on the first day of the month that the tabernacle was raised up.
18. And Moses caused the tabernacle to be raised up and fastened its sockets and set up its boards and put in its bars and caused its pillars to be raised up.
19. And he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent above upon it, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
20. And he took and put the testimony into the ark and set the staves on the ark and put the seat of reconciliation upon the ark above,
21. and he brought the ark into the tabernacle and set up the veil of the curtain and covered the ark of the testimony, as the Lord commanded Moses.
22. And he put the table in the tabernacle of the testimony, upon the side of the Aquilon of the tabernacle, outside the veil.
23. And he set the bread in order upon it before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
24. And he put the lampstand in the tabernacle of the testimony, over against the table, on the side of the Negev of the tabernacle.
25. And he lighted the lamps before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
26. He also put the golden altar in the tabernacle of the testimony before the veil.
27. And he burnt aromatic incense on it, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
28. In the same manner he set up the hanging at the door of the tabernacle.
29. And he put the altar of burnt offering by the door of the tabernacle, of the tabernacle of the testimony, and offered upon it the burnt offering and the present, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
30. And he set the laver between the tabernacle of the testimony and the altar and put water in it, to wash with.
31. And Moses and Aaron and his sons would wash their hands and their feet in it.
32. When they would enter into the tabernacle of the testimony and when they would come near unto the altar, they washed themselves, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
33. Last he raised up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar and set up the hanging of the court gate. Thus Moses finished the work.
34. Then a cloud covered the tabernacle of the testimony, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
35. And Moses was not able to enter into the tabernacle of the testimony because the cloud was upon it, and the glory of the Lord had it full.
