And Yahweh said, "There is a place with me, and you will stand on the rock.

And Yahweh said to Moses, "Cut for yourself two stone tablets like the first ones, and I will write on the tablets the words that were on the first tablets, which you broke.

And he said, "Please, if I have found favor in your eyes, Lord, let my Lord, please, go among us--indeed it is a stiff-necked people--and forgive our iniquity and our sin and {take us as your possession}."

And he said, "Look, I [am about to] make a covenant. In front of all your people I will do wonders that have not been created on all the earth and among all the nations, and all the people among whom you [are] will see Yahweh's work, because what I [am about to] do with you [will be] awesome.

"You will not slaughter the blood of my sacrifice on [food with] yeast, and the sacrifice of the Feast of the Passover will not stay overnight to the morning.

And Yahweh said to Moses, "Write for yourself these words, because {according to} these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel."

And Moses assembled all the community of the {Israelites}, and he said to them, "These are the words that Yahweh has commanded [for us] to do them.

And Moses said to all the community of the {Israelites}, saying, "This is the word that Yahweh has commanded, saying,

And Moses said to the {Israelites}, "See, Yahweh has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri the son of Hur, from the tribe of Judah.

And they said to Moses, saying, "The people are {bringing more} than enough for the service of the work that Yahweh has commanded {to be done}."

And he made loops of blue on the edge of the one curtain, at the end in the set; so he did on the edge of the end curtain in the second set.

He made fifty loops on the one curtain, and he made fifty loops on the end of the curtain that [was] in the second set; the loops were opposite {one to another}.

And he made fifty loops on the edge of the end curtain in the set, and he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain [in] the second set.

And he made the frames for the tabernacle [with] twenty frames for the south side.

And for the second side of the tabernacle, the north side, he made twenty frames

And he made five bars of acacia wood for the frames on the one side of the tabernacle,

and five bars for the frames on the second side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the frames at the rear {on the west}.

And he cast for it four gold rings on its four feet; and two rings were on its one side, and two rings were on its second side.

And six branches [were] going out from its sides, three branches of the lampstand from its one side and three branches of the lampstand from its second side.

And he made the courtyard; for the south side [were] the hangings of the court of finely twisted linen, one hundred cubits,

And for the north side [the hangings were] one hundred cubits [with] their twenty pillars and their twenty bases of bronze [and with] the hooks of the pillars and their bands of silver.

And for the {west} side fifty cubits [of] hangings [with] their ten pillars and their ten bases [and with] the hooks of the pillars and their bands of silver.

And for the eastward side, toward sunrise, fifty cubits;

and for the second shoulder {on each side} of the gate of the courtyard [were] fifteen cubits of hangings, [with] their three pillars and their three bases.

And he set them on the ephod's shoulder pieces [as] stones of remembrance for the {Israelites}, as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

and the fourth row [was] a turquoise, an onyx, and a jasper. [They were] set [with] gold filigree settings in their mountings.

And they made two gold rings, and they placed [them] on the two edges of the breast piece, on its lip that [is] on {the other side} of the ephod, {to the inside}.

"On the first day of the month, you will set up the tabernacle of the tent of assembly.

And you will bring the table, and you will arrange its setting, and you will bring the lampstand, and you will set up its lamps.

And you will put the gold altar for incense before the ark of the testimony, and you will set up the entrance screen for the tabernacle.

And you will set up the courtyard all around, and you will put up the screen of the gate of the courtyard.

{In} the first month of the second year, on [the] first of the month, the tabernacle was set up.

And Moses raised the tabernacle, and he placed its bases, and he set up its frames, and he placed its bars, and he raised its pillars.

And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and he set up the curtain of the screening, and he shielded the ark of the testimony, as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

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

And he placed the lampstand in the tent of assembly opposite the table on the south side of the tabernacle.

And he set up the lamps before Yahweh, as Yahweh had commanded Moses.

And he set up the entrance screen for the tabernacle.

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.

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

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

Then Aaron's sons, the priests, will arrange the pieces [of meat], the head, and the suet on the wood that [is] on the fire that [is] on the altar.

He must slaughter it on the north side of the altar {before} Yahweh; then Aaron's sons, the priests, will sprinkle its blood all around the altar.

Then he must cut it into pieces [along] with its head and its suet; and the priest will arrange them on the wood that [is] on the fire that [is] on the altar.

and he shall spatter {some of} the sin offering's blood on the altar's side, and the leftover blood must be drained out on the altar's base; it [is] a sin offering.

Then Moses said to the community, "This [is] the word that Yahweh has commanded to be done."

Then he cut the ram into pieces, and Moses turned into smoke the head and the pieces and the suet,

Then Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, "Boil the meat in [the] entrance to [the] tent of assembly, and there you must eat it and the bread that [is] in the basket of the consecration offering, [just] as I have commanded, saying, 'Aaron and his sons must eat it,'

And you must stay [at the] entrance to [the] tent of assembly day and night [for] seven days, and you shall keep the obligation from Yahweh, so you might not die, for thus I have been commanded."

and he said to Aaron, "Take for yourself {a bull calf} as a sin offering and a ram as a burnt offering, without defect, and present [them] {before} Yahweh.

Then Moses said, "This [is] the word that Yahweh commanded you to do {so that} the glory of Yahweh might appear to you."

Then Moses said to Aaron, "Approach the altar and {sacrifice} your sin offering and your burnt offering, and make atonement for yourself and for the people. And {sacrifice} the people's offering and make atonement for them, [just] as Yahweh has commanded."

Therefore Moses said to Aaron, "This [is] what Yahweh spoke, saying, 'Among those who are close to me I will show myself holy, and {in the presence of} all the people I will display my glory.'" So Aaron was silent.

Then Moses summoned Mishael and Elzaphan the sons of Uzziel, Aaron's uncle, and he said to them, "Come forward. Carry your brothers from {the front of} the sanctuary to {outside the camp}."

Then Moses said to Aaron and to his sons Eleazar and Ithamar, "You must not let your hair hang loosely, and you must not tear your garments, so that you will not die and he will be angry with all the community. But your brothers, all the house of Israel, may weep [because of] {the burning that Yahweh caused},

"Why did you not eat the sin offering on the sanctuary's site, because it [is] {a most holy thing}? And he gave it to you to remove the community's guilt, to make atonement for them {before} Yahweh.

So Aaron said to Moses, "Look, today they presented their sin offering and their burnt offering {before} Yahweh, and [things] such as these have happened to me, and [if] I were to eat a sin offering today, would it have been good in Yahweh's eyes?"

And when {one of their dead bodies} falls on any {seed for sowing}, it [is] clean.

But when water is put on [the] seed and {one of their dead bodies} falls on it, it [is] unclean for you.

And [for] thirty-three days she shall stay in the blood of [her] cleansing; she must not touch any holy [object], and she may not come to the sanctuary until the fulfilling of the days of her cleansing.

But if she gives birth to a female, then she shall be unclean [for] two weeks as [in] her menstruation, and [for] sixty-six days she shall stay {through} the blood of [her] cleansing.

Then the one who presents himself for cleansing shall wash his garments, and he shall shave off all his hair, and he shall wash himself in the water; thus he shall be clean, and afterward he shall enter the camp, but he shall stay {outside his tent} [for] seven days.

And the person who sits on the object upon which the person who discharges has sat must wash his garments, and he shall wash [himself] with water, and he shall be unclean until the evening.

And any person who touches any object on which she sat must wash his garments, and he shall wash [himself] with water, and he shall be unclean until the evening.

And Yahweh said to Moses, "Tell your brother Aaron [that] he should not enter at any time into the sanctuary {behind} the curtain {in front of} the atonement cover that [is] on the ark, so that he might not die, because I appear in the cloud over the atonement cover.

And he shall take {some of} the bull's blood, and he shall spatter [it] with his finger on the atonement cover's surface on the eastern [side], and {before} the atonement cover he shall spatter {some of} the blood with his finger seven times.

And [if there is] {anyone} from the house of Israel or from the alien who is dwelling in their midst who eats any blood, then I will set my face against the person who eats the blood, and I will cut him off from among his people.

{Therefore} I said to the {Israelites}, '{None of you} may eat blood, nor may the alien who is dwelling in your midst eat blood.'

Indeed, [the] life of all flesh, its blood, [is] in its life, so I said to the {Israelites}, 'You may not eat [the] blood of any flesh, because [the] life of all flesh [is] its blood; anyone who eats it must be cut off.'

" 'You must keep my statutes: [as for] your domestic animals, you shall not cause two differing kinds to breed; [as for] your field, you shall not sow two differing kinds of seed; and, a garment of two differing kinds [of] woven material should not be worn on you.

And I myself will set my face against that man, and I will cut him off from the midst of his people, because he has given {some of} his offspring to Molech, so that {he makes my sanctuary unclean} and profanes {my holy name}.

then I myself will set my face against that man and against his clan, and I will cut him off and all those from the midst of their people who prostitute after Molech.

As for the person who turns to the mediums and the soothsayers to prostitute after them, I will set my face against that person, and I will cut him off from the midst of his people.

So I said to you, "You yourselves shall take possession of their land, and I myself shall give it to you to possess it--a land flowing with milk and honey"; I [am] Yahweh your God, who {has set you apart} from the nations.

And you shall distinguish between the clean and the unclean animal and between the unclean and the clean bird; and you shall not defile yourselves with the animal or with the bird or with anything that moves along the ground that I have set apart for you {as unclean}.

Then Yahweh said to Moses, "Speak to the priests, Aaron's sons, and say to them, 'One must not make himself unclean for a dead person among his [own] people,

He shall be with him {as a yearly hired worker}; he shall not rule over him with ruthlessness {in your sight}.

I {in turn} will do this to you: then I will summon onto you horror, the wasting disease, and the fever that wastes eyes and that drains away life; and you shall sow your seed {in vain}, and your enemies shall eat it.

And I will set my face against you, and you shall be defeated {before} your enemies; and your haters shall rule over you, and you shall flee away, but there shall not be {anybody who is pursuing} you.

And I will remember [the] first covenant for them--whom I brought out from the land of Egypt {in the sight of} the nations {to be their God}. I [am] Yahweh.'"

But if he [is] poorer than your proper value, then he shall present himself {before} the priest, and the priest shall set a value [on] him; the priest shall value him {according to} what the person who made a vow {can afford}.

And the priest shall set a value on it, {either good or bad}; as the priest [sets] your proper value, so it shall be.

" 'And if a man consecrates his house [as] a holy object for Yahweh, then the priest shall set a value on it, {either good or bad}; [just] as the priest sets a value on it, so it shall remain.

" 'And if a man consecrates {some of} his property's fields for Yahweh, then your proper value shall be {in accordance with its seed requirements}: a homer of barley seed for fifty shekels of money.

" 'And any tithe of the land from the land's seed [or] from the fruit of the trees [is] for Yahweh; it [is] a holy object for Yahweh.

And when the tabernacle is set out, the Levites will {take it down}, and when encamping the tabernacle the Levites will set it up; the stranger that approaches [it] will be put to death.

The ones who encamp on the eastern side, toward the sunrise, [will be] of the standard of the camp of Judah according to their divisions; and the leader of the descendants of Judah [will be] Nahshon son of Amminadab,

All those counted from the camp of Judah [are] one hundred and eighty-six thousand four hundred. They will set out first according to their divisions.

All {those counted} from the camp of Reuben [are] one hundred and fifty-one thousand four hundred and fifty. They will set out second according to their divisions.

"The tent of assembly the camp of the Levites will set out in the midst of the camps; they will set out just as they encamped, {each according to their standards}.

All {those counted} from the camp of Ephraim [are] one hundred and eighty thousand one hundred. They will set out third according to their divisions.

All the {ones counted} from the camp of Dan [are] one hundred and fifty-seven thousand six hundred. They will set out {last} according to their divisions."

And the {Israelites} did everything that Yahweh commanded Moses. They encamped according to their standards, and they set out each one according to their clans among {their families}.

"Bring near the tribe of Levi, and {set the tribe} {before Aaron} the priest, and they will minister to him.

The clan of the descendants of Kohath will encamp on the side of the tabernacle to the south.

[The] leader of {the family} according to the clans of Merari [is] Zuriel son of Abihail; they will encamp of the side of the tabernacle to the north.

And Yahweh said to Moses, "Muster every firstborn male from the {Israelites} from {one month} and above and {count} their names.

Yahweh said to Moses, saying,

Yahweh said to Moses, "{One leader for each day} will present their offering for the dedication of the altar."

And Aaron did so; he set up the lampstand in front of the face of its lamps, just as Yahweh commanded Moses.
