1 Then the Lord spoke to Moses:
2 “On the first day of the first month you are to set up the tabernacle, the tent of meeting.
3 You are to place the ark of the testimony in it and shield the ark with the special curtain.
4 You are to bring in the table and set out the things that belong on it; then you are to bring in the lampstand and set up its lamps.
5 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.
6 You are to put the altar for the burnt offering in front of the entrance to the tabernacle, the tent of meeting.
