New Testament

Exodus 40:15-21 New King James Version (NKJV)

15. You shall anoint them, as you anointed their father, that they may minister to Me as priests; for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.”

16. Thus Moses did; according to all that the Lord had commanded him, so he did.

17. And it came to pass in the first month of the second year, on the first day of the month, that the tabernacle was raised up.

18. So Moses raised up the tabernacle, fastened its sockets, set up its boards, put in its bars, and raised up its pillars.

19. And he spread out the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent on top of it, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

20. He took the Testimony and put it into the ark, inserted the poles through the rings of the ark, and put the mercy seat on top of the ark.

21. And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, hung up the veil of the covering, and partitioned off the ark of the Testimony, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
