Chapter 40 of Exodus—King James Version (KJV)

  1. ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
  2. ¶ On the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
  3. ¶ And thou shalt put therein the ark of the testimony, and cover the ark with the vail.
  4. ¶ And thou shalt bring in the table, and set in order the things that are to be set in order upon it; and thou shalt bring in the candlestick, and light the lamps thereof.
  5. ¶ And thou shalt set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the testimony, and put the hanging of the door to the tabernacle.
  6. ¶ And thou shalt set the altar of the burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
  7. ¶ And thou shalt set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and shalt put water therein.
  8. ¶ And thou shalt set up the court round about, and hang up the hanging at the court gate.
  9. ¶ And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that is therein, and shalt hallow it, and all the vessels thereof: and it shall be holy.
  10. ¶ And thou shalt anoint the altar of the burnt offering, and all his vessels, and sanctify the altar: and it shall be an altar most holy.
  11. ¶ And thou shalt anoint the laver and his foot, and sanctify it.
  12. ¶ And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water.
  13. ¶ And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments, and anoint him, and sanctify him; that he may minister unto me in the priest’s office.
  14. ¶ And thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe them with coats:
  15. ¶ And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint their father, that they may minister unto me in the priest’s office: for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting 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 reared up.
  18. ¶ And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and fastened his sockets, and set up the boards thereof, and put in the bars thereof, and reared up his pillars.
  19. ¶ And he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above upon it; as the LORD 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 vail of the covering, and covered the ark of the testimony; as the LORD commanded Moses.
  22. ¶ And he put the table in the tent of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without the vail.
  23. ¶ And he set the bread in order upon it before the LORD; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
  24. ¶ And he put the candlestick in the tent of the congregation, over against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.
  25. ¶ And he lighted the lamps before the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.
  26. ¶ And he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation before the vail:
  27. ¶ And he burnt sweet incense thereon; as the LORD commanded Moses.
  28. ¶ And 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 tent of the congregation, and offered upon it the burnt offering and the meat offering; as the LORD commanded Moses.
  30. ¶ And he set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and put water there, to wash withal.
  31. ¶ And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet thereat:
  32. ¶ When they went into the tent of the congregation, and when they came near unto the altar, they washed; as the LORD commanded Moses.
  33. ¶ And he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the hanging of the court gate. So Moses finished the work.
  34. ¶ Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
  35. ¶ And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation, because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
  36. ¶ And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their journeys:
  37. ¶ But if the cloud were not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up.
  38. ¶ For the cloud of the LORD was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.

    When i do read some comments and seeing that its the same people that are supposed to be called believers but are talking ill of other denominations, it hurts. Let us all remember that We should judge not

      The bible tells us to test the spirits. Satan disguises himself as angel of light. So yes some denomination are not teaching the truth. You are responsible for judging which ones are not. You have to judge the truth at all times. this is what the bible teaches

    The NWT is a very good translation. Dr. Jason David BeDuhn PhD attests to that in his book Truth in Translation. drive.google.com/...5p16melHzg8/view

      NWT is a false translation that takes away from the deity of Jesus !

    Thank you for taking the time to provide this service. I like seeing the NASB on your web page in the same format as I read on paper. On other sites, the text area is smaller, and so I have to keep scrolling down to read and sometimes I lose the context. So I really appreciate the format.

    As far as the NWT, you are certainly free to do whatever you think best with your own web pages. I'd suggest that you make a note anytime you have a translation that is associated with only one denomination or church, for example:
    New World Translation (Jehovah's Witness version).

    In Jesus' parable of the wheat and the tares. the main idea seems to be that you can't easily distinguish between God's people and not-God's people on this earth, so our Lord's response is to wait until they are shown to be the kind of people they are inside. But the NWT seems like false teaching to me. So I think the warning passages from Jesus' apostles are more applicable, as in 2 Peter 3:15-16, when he talks about Paul's writings:
    "There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures."
    And we also have the positive exhortations, as in 2 Timothy 2:15:
    "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth."

      Your suggestion regarding the denominational flagging is duly noted. But I can’t help but wonder, wouldn’t a Catholic also want “Protestant versions” marked as well?

      As for the parable, I’m pretty sure the slaves were convinced in their own minds that they could tell the tares from the wheat. After all, aren’t they the ones who identified the problem in the first place? But the master obviously thought otherwise.

      Furthermore, even at the time when Jesus himself was walking the earth, not everybody who claimed fellowship actually followed him causing John to inquire at Mark 9:39, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us.” But Jesus said, “Do not hinder him . . . for he who is not against us is for us.”

    Hello, question.. why have you included the NWT with other legitimate bible translations? Or why have you not atleast included a warning to readers? Don't you fear that someone could be influenced by the Watchtower's intentional heresies? Thank you.
