and for the second side of the tabernacle, the north side, twenty frames,

And for the back of the tabernacle on the west you will make six frames.

You are to make two frames for the corners of the tabernacle on the back.

So all the work of the tabernacle, the tent of meeting, was completed, and the Israelites did according to all that the Lord had commanded Moses -- they did it exactly so.

They brought the tabernacle to Moses, the tent and all its furnishings, clasps, frames, bars, posts, and bases;

the hangings of the courtyard, its posts and its bases, and the curtain for the gateway of the courtyard, its ropes and its tent pegs, and all the furnishings for the service of the tabernacle, for the tent of meeting;

"On the first day of the first month you are to set up the tabernacle, the tent of meeting.

You are to put the gold altar for incense in front of the ark of the testimony and put the curtain at the entrance to the tabernacle.

You are to put the altar for the burnt offering in front of the entrance to the tabernacle, the tent of meeting.

And take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle and all that is in it, and sanctify it and all its furnishings, and it will be holy.

So the tabernacle was set up on the first day of the first month, in the second year.

Then he spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent over it, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, hung the protecting curtain, and shielded the ark of the testimony from view, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.

And he put the table in the tent of meeting, on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the curtain.

And he put the lampstand in the tent of meeting opposite the table, on the south side of the tabernacle.

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

He also put the altar for the burnt offering by the entrance to the tabernacle, the tent of meeting, and offered on it the burnt offering and the meal offering, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.

And he set up the courtyard around the tabernacle and the altar, and put the curtain at the gate of the courtyard. So Moses finished the work.

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

Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting because the cloud settled on it and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.

But when the cloud was lifted up from the tabernacle, the Israelites would set out on all their journeys;

For the cloud of the Lord was on the tabernacle by day, but fire would be on it at night, in plain view of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
