Exodus 40:29-38 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

29. And the altar of burnt offering he placed at the entrance of the tabernacle of the tent of assembly, and he offered on it the burnt offering and the grain offering, as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

30. And he placed the basin between the tent of assembly and the altar, and he put there water for washing.

31. And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet from it.

32. At their going into the tent of assembly and at their approaching the altar, they washed, as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

33. And he set up the courtyard all around the tabernacle and the altar, and he put up the screen of the gate of the courtyard, and Moses completed the work.

34. And the cloud covered the tent of assembly, and the glory of Yahweh filled the tabernacle.

35. And Moses was unable to go into the tent of assembly because the cloud settled on it and the glory of Yahweh filled the tabernacle.

36. And when the cloud was lifted from the tabernacle, the Israelites set out on all their journeys.

37. But if the cloud was not lifted, they did not set out until the day of its being lifted.

38. For the cloud of Yahweh was on the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night before the eyes of all the house of Israel throughout all their journeys.
