Exodus 40:16-25 New King James Version (NKJV)

16. Thus Moses did; according to all that the Lord had commanded him, so he did.

17. And it came to pass in the first month of the second year, on the first day of the month, that the tabernacle was raised up.

18. So Moses raised up the tabernacle, fastened its sockets, set up its boards, put in its bars, and raised up its pillars.

19. And he spread out the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent on top of it, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

20. He took the Testimony and put it into the ark, inserted the poles through the rings of the ark, and put the mercy seat on top of the ark.

21. And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, hung up the veil of the covering, and partitioned off the ark of the Testimony, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

22. He put the table in the tabernacle of meeting, on the north side 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. He put the lampstand in the tabernacle of meeting, across from the table, on the south side of the tabernacle;

25. and he lit the lamps before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
