¹ And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,

² On the first day of the first month shalt thou rear up the tabernacle of the tent of meeting.

³ And thou shalt put therein the ark of the testimony, and thou shalt screen the ark with the veil.

⁴ And thou shalt bring in the table, and set in order the things that are upon it; and thou shalt bring in the candlestick, and light the lamps thereof.

⁵ And thou shalt set the golden altar for incense before the ark of the testimony, and put the screen of the door to the tabernacle.

⁶ And thou shalt set the altar of burnt-offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting.

⁷ And thou shalt set the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and shalt put water therein.

⁸ And thou shalt set up the court round about, and hang up the screen of the gate of the court.

⁹ And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that is therein, and shalt hallow it, and all the furniture thereof: and it shall be holy.

¹⁰ And thou shalt anoint the altar of burnt-offering, and all its vessels, and sanctify the altar: and the altar shall be most holy.

¹¹ And thou shalt anoint the laver and its base, and sanctify it.

¹² And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons unto the door of the tent of meeting, and shalt wash them with water.

¹³ And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments; and thou shalt anoint him, and sanctify him, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.

¹⁴ And thou shalt bring his sons, and put coats upon them;

¹⁵ and thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint their father, that they may minister unto me in the priest's office: and their anointing shall be to them for an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.

¹⁶ Thus did Moses: according to all that Jehovah 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 reared up.

¹⁸ And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and laid its sockets, and set up the boards thereof, and put in the bars thereof, and reared up its pillars.

¹⁹ And he spread the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above upon it; as Jehovah commanded Moses.

²⁰ And he took and put the testimony into the ark, and set the staves on the ark, and put the mercy-seat above upon 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 Jehovah commanded Moses.

²² And he put the table in the tent of meeting, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without the veil.

²³ And he set the bread in order upon it before Jehovah; as Jehovah commanded Moses.

²⁴ And he put the candlestick in the tent of meeting, over against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.

²⁵ And he lighted the lamps before Jehovah; as Jehovah commanded Moses.

²⁶ And he put the golden altar in the tent of meeting before the veil:

²⁷ and he burnt thereon incense of sweet spices; as Jehovah commanded Moses.

²⁸ And he put the screen of the door to the tabernacle.

²⁹ And he set the altar of burnt-offering at the door of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and offered upon it the burnt-offering and the meal-offering; as Jehovah commanded Moses.

³⁰ And he set the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water therein, wherewith to wash.

³¹ And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet thereat;

³² when they went into the tent of meeting, and when they came near unto the altar, they washed; as Jehovah commanded Moses.

³³ And he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the screen of the gate of the court. So Moses finished the work.

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

³⁵ And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of meeting, because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle.

³⁶ And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward, throughout all their journeys:

³⁷ but if the cloud was not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up.

³⁸ For the cloud of Jehovah was upon the tabernacle by day, and there was fire therein by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.

¹ And this is the law of the trespass-offering: it is most holy.

² In the place where they kill the burnt-offering shall they kill the trespass-offering; and the blood thereof shall he sprinkle upon the altar round about.

³ And he shall offer of it all the fat thereof: the fat tail, and the fat that covereth the inwards,

⁴ and the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, which is by the loins, and the caul upon the liver, with the kidneys, shall he take away;

⁵ and the priest shall burn them upon the altar for an offering made by fire unto Jehovah: it is a trespass-offering.

⁶ Every male among the priests shall eat thereof: it shall be eaten in a holy place: it is most holy.

⁷ As is the sin-offering, so is the trespass-offering; there is one law for them: the priest that maketh atonement therewith, he shall have it.

⁸ And the priest that offereth any man's burnt-offering, even the priest shall have to himself the skin of the burnt-offering which he hath offered.

⁹ And every meal-offering that is baken in the oven, and all that is dressed in the frying-pan, and on the baking-pan, shall be the priest's that offereth it.

¹⁰ And every meal-offering, mingled with oil, or dry, shall all the sons of Aaron have, one as well as another.

¹¹ And this is the law of the sacrifice of peace-offerings, which one shall offer unto Jehovah.

¹² If he offer it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer with the sacrifice of thanksgiving unleavened cakes mingled with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, and cakes mingled with oil, of fine flour soaked.

¹³ With cakes of leavened bread he shall offer his oblation with the sacrifice of his peace-offerings for thanksgiving.

¹⁴ And of it he shall offer one out of each oblation for a heave-offering unto Jehovah; it shall be the priest's that sprinkleth the blood of the peace-offerings.

¹⁵ And the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace-offerings for thanksgiving shall be eaten on the day of his oblation; he shall not leave any of it until the morning.

¹⁶ But if the sacrifice of his oblation be a vow, or a freewill-offering, it shall be eaten on the day that he offereth his sacrifice; and on the morrow that which remaineth of it shall be eaten:

¹⁷ but that which remaineth of the flesh of the sacrifice on the third day shall be burnt with fire.

¹⁸ And if any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace-offerings be eaten on the third day, it shall not be accepted, neither shall it be imputed unto him that offereth it: it shall be an abomination, and the soul that eateth of it shall bear his iniquity.

¹⁹ And the flesh that toucheth any unclean thing shall not be eaten; it shall be burnt with fire. And as for the flesh, every one that is clean shall eat thereof:

²⁰ but the soul that eateth of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace-offerings, that pertain unto Jehovah, having his uncleanness upon him, that soul shall be cut off from his people.

²¹ And when any one shall touch any unclean thing, the uncleanness of man, or an unclean beast, or any unclean abomination, and eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace-offerings, which pertain unto Jehovah, that soul shall be cut off from his people.

²² And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,

²³ Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, Ye shall eat no fat, of ox, or sheep, or goat.

²⁴ And the fat of that which dieth of itself, and the fat of that which is torn of beasts, may be used for any other service; but ye shall in no wise eat of it.

²⁵ For whosoever eateth the fat of the beast, of which men offer an offering made by fire unto Jehovah, even the soul that eateth it shall be cut off from his people.

²⁶ And ye shall eat no manner of blood, whether it be of bird or of beast, in any of your dwellings.

²⁷ Whosoever it be that eateth any blood, that soul shall be cut off from his people.

²⁸ And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,

²⁹ Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, He that offereth the sacrifice of his peace-offerings unto Jehovah shall bring his oblation unto Jehovah out of the sacrifice of his peace-offerings:

³⁰ his own hands shall bring the offerings of Jehovah made by fire; the fat with the breast shall he bring, that the breast may be waved for a wave-offering before Jehovah.

³¹ And the priest shall burn the fat upon the altar; but the breast shall be Aaron's and his sons'.

³² And the right thigh shall ye give unto the priest for a heave-offering out of the sacrifices of your peace-offerings.

³³ He among the sons of Aaron that offereth the blood of the peace-offerings, and the fat, shall have the right thigh for a portion.

³⁴ For the wave-breast and the heave-thigh have I taken of the children of Israel out of the sacrifices of their peace-offerings, and have given them unto Aaron the priest and unto his sons as [their] portion for ever from the children of Israel.

³⁵ This is the anointing-portion of Aaron, and the anointing-portion of his sons, out of the offerings of Jehovah made by fire, in the day when he presented them to minister unto Jehovah in the priest's office;

³⁶ which Jehovah commanded to be given them of the children of Israel, in the day that he anointed them. It is [their] portion for ever throughout their generations.

³⁷ This is the law of the burnt-offering, of the meal-offering, and of the sin-offering, and of the trespass-offering, and of the consecration, and of the sacrifice of peace-offerings;

³⁸ which Jehovah commanded Moses in mount Sinai, in the day that he commanded the children of Israel to offer their oblations unto Jehovah, in the wilderness of Sinai.
