Chapter 40 of Exodus—Revised Standard Version (RSV)

  1. ¶ The LORD said to Moses,
  2. “On the first day of the first month you shall erect the tabernacle of the tent of meeting.
  3. And you shall put in it the ark of the testimony, and you shall screen the ark with the veil.
  4. And you shall bring in the table, and set its arrangements in order; and you shall bring in the lampstand, and set up its lamps.
  5. And you shall put the golden altar for incense before the ark of the testimony, and set up the screen for the door of the tabernacle.
  6. You shall set the altar of burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting,
  7. and place the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it.
  8. And you shall set up the court round about, and hang up the screen for the gate of the court.
  9. Then you shall take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle and all that is in it, and consecrate it and all its furniture; and it shall become holy.
  10. You shall also anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils, and consecrate the altar; and the altar shall be most holy.
  11. You shall also anoint the laver and its base, and consecrate it.
  12. Then you shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the tent of meeting, and shall wash them with water,
  13. and put upon Aaron the holy garments, and you shall anoint him and consecrate him, that he may serve me as priest.
  14. You shall bring his sons also and put coats on them,
  15. and anoint them, as you anointed their father, that they may serve me as priests: and their anointing shall admit them to a perpetual priesthood throughout their generations.”
  16. ¶ Thus did Moses; according to all that the LORD commanded him, so he did.
  17. And in the first month in the second year, on the first day of the month, the tabernacle was erected.
  18. Moses erected the tabernacle; he laid its bases, and set up its frames, and put in its poles, and raised up its pillars;
  19. and he spread the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent over it, as the LORD had commanded Moses.
  20. And he took the testimony and put it into the ark, and put the poles on the ark, and set the mercy seat above on 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 the LORD had commanded Moses.
  22. And he put the table in the tent of meeting, on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil,
  23. and set the bread in order on it before the LORD; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
  24. And he put the lampstand in the tent of meeting, opposite the table on the south side of the tabernacle,
  25. and set up the lamps before the LORD; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
  26. And he put the golden altar in the tent of meeting before the veil,
  27. and burnt fragrant incense upon it; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
  28. And he put in place the screen for the door of 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 cereal offering; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
  30. And he set the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it for washing,
  31. with which Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet;
  32. when they went into the tent of meeting, and when they approached the altar, they washed; as the LORD commanded Moses.
  33. And he erected the court round 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 the LORD filled the tabernacle.
  35. And Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting, because the cloud abode upon it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
  36. Throughout all their journeys, whenever the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the people of Israel would go onward;
  37. but if the cloud was not taken up, then they did not go onward till the day that it was taken up.
  38. For throughout all their journeys the cloud of the LORD was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was in it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel.

      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

      The NWT is Satanic filth to its very core.

      The JW Cult is Satanic to its very core.

      Praise Yahweh I will never be a victim of JW brainwashing. If I burn in Hell for eternity or I am ultimately annihilated so be it

      May Yahweh's curse rest on the Watchtower Society and its Satanic leadership

      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.

      Please site these intentional heresies. I am well versed in the watch tower outline and agree they are in many ways incorrect but i also bet i can point many out from EVERY established or main denomination. There is much to learn from them all as one who drinks milk?

      Judge not lest ye be judged, that is not to pass judgement on you either brother.

      I debate with scripture. I don't hold it to be true that Michael is Y'Shua HaMeshiach but I also firmly hold it to be true that our G-d and Heavenly Father are not the word encarnate and only begotten son.

      I love not seeing "lord" which i relate to baal. I feel the catholic church is a satanic establishment and I am aware a freemason started the hovies but there are evil in high places and our fight is also with principalities.

      What i'm saying is that in my darkest hours, those two were some of if not the only ones who would bring a Bible and eucharist and pray with me.

      We all fall short of the glory of G-d.

      Don't forget the NWT was recognized as the most accurate translation on Jeopardy.

      Lastly, this is different I noted than the NWT i have read and am very familiar with. Pull up the watchtower page and compare. I truly look forward to getting this one!
