25. He lighted the lamps before the Lord, just as the Lord commanded Moses.

26. Then he put the gold altar in the tent of meeting before the veil.

27. And he burned fragrant incense on it, just as the Lord commanded Moses.

28. Then he set up the curtain at the entrance of the tabernacle.

29. He put the altar of burnt offering by the entrance of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting and offered on it the burnt offering and the grain offering, just as the Lord commanded Moses.

30. Then he set the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing.

31. It was there Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet.

32. Whenever they went into the tent of meeting, and whenever they came near the altar, they washed, just as the Lord commanded Moses.

33. He erected the courtyard all around the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the curtain of the courtyard gate. So Moses finished the work.

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

36. When the cloud was lifted up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel would set out in all their journeys.

37. But if the cloud was not lifted up, then they did not set out until the day that it was lifted.
