Exodus 40:27-35 New International Version (NIV)

27. and burned fragrant incense on it, as the Lord commanded him.

28. Then he put up the curtain at the entrance to the tabernacle.

29. He set the altar of burnt offering near the entrance to the tabernacle, the tent of meeting, and offered on it burnt offerings and grain offerings, as the Lord commanded him.

30. He placed the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing,

31. and Moses and Aaron and his sons used it to wash their hands and feet.

32. They washed whenever they entered the tent of meeting or approached the altar, as the Lord commanded Moses.

33. Then Moses set up the courtyard around the tabernacle and altar and put up the curtain at the entrance to the courtyard. And so Moses finished the work.

34. Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.

35. Moses could not enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
