29 ¶ And this is what thou shalt do unto them to sanctify them that they shall be my priests: Take one young bullock and two perfect rams

² and unleavened bread and unleavened cakes tempered with oil and unleavened wafers anointed with oil, which thou shalt make of wheat flour.

³ And thou shalt put them into a basket and offer them in the basket with the bullock and the two rams.

⁴ And Aaron and his sons thou shalt bring unto the door of the tabernacle of the testimony and shalt wash them with water.

⁵ And thou shalt take the garments and clothe Aaron with the coat and the robe of the ephod and the ephod and the pectoral and gird him with the special girdle of the ephod;

⁶ and thou shalt put the mitre upon his head and put the crown of holiness upon the mitre.

⁷ Then shalt thou take the anointing oil and pour it upon his head and anoint him.

⁸ And thou shalt bring his sons and put coats upon them.

⁹ And thou shalt gird them with girdles, Aaron and his sons, and bind the tiaras on them; and the priest’s office shall be theirs for a perpetual statute; and thou shalt fill the hands Aaron and his sons.

¹⁰ And thou shalt cause the bullock to be brought before the tabernacle of the testimony, and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the bullock.

¹¹ And thou shalt kill the bullock before the LORD by the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.

¹² And thou shalt take of the blood of the bullock and put it upon the horns of the altar with thy finger and pour all the remaining blood beside the bottom of the altar.

¹³ And thou shalt take all the fat that covers the intestines and the caul that is above the liver and the two kidneys and the fat that is upon them and burn them upon the altar.

¹⁴ But the flesh of the bullock and his skin and his dung shalt thou burn with fire outside the camp; it is sin.

¹⁵ Thou shalt likewise take one ram, and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram.

¹⁶ And thou shalt slay the ram, and thou shalt take his blood and sprinkle it round about upon the altar.

¹⁷ And thou shalt cut the ram in pieces and wash his intestines and his legs and put them upon his pieces and upon his head.

¹⁸ And thou shalt burn the whole ram upon the altar: it is a burnt offering unto the LORD: it is a sweet savour, an offering on fire unto the LORD.

¹⁹ And thou shalt take the other ram, and Aaron and his sons shall put their hands upon the head of the ram.

²⁰ Then shalt thou kill the ram and take of his blood and put it upon the tip of the right ear of Aaron and upon the tip of the right ears of his sons and upon the thumb of their right hands and upon the great toe of their right feet and sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about.

²¹ And thou shalt take of the blood that shall be upon the altar and of the anointing oil and sprinkle it upon Aaron and upon his garments and upon his sons and upon their garments, and he shall be sanctified, and his garments and his sons and his sons’ garments with him.

²² Then thou shalt take of the ram the fat and the tail and the fat that covers the intestines and the caul above the liver and the two kidneys and the fat that is upon them and the right shoulder, for it is a ram of consecrations,

²³ Also one large loaf of bread and one cake of oiled bread and one wafer out of the basket of the unleavened bread that is before the LORD;

²⁴ and thou shalt put all this in the hands of Aaron and in the hands of his sons and shalt lift them up and wave them before the LORD.

²⁵ Then thou shalt take them from their hands and burn them upon the altar upon the burnt offering, for a sweet savour before the LORD. It is an offering on fire unto the LORD.

²⁶ And thou shalt take the breast of the ram of the consecrations, which is of Aaron and wave it for a waved offering before the LORD; and it shall be thy part.

²⁷ And thou shalt set apart the breast of the waved offering and the shoulder of the sanctification, that which was waved and that which was sanctified of the ram of the consecrations of Aaron and of his sons;

²⁸ and it shall be for Aaron and for his sons by a perpetual statute of the sons of Israel, for it is something set apart, and it shall be set apart of the sons of Israel of the sacrifice of their peace offerings; it shall be something of theirs set apart unto the LORD.

²⁹ And the holy garments of Aaron shall be his sons’ after him, to be anointed with them and to be consecrated with them.

³⁰ And for seven days the priest of his sons, who in his stead shall come into the tabernacle of the testimony, shall put them on to serve in the sanctuary.

³¹ And thou shalt take the ram of the consecrations and cook his flesh in the holy place.

³² And Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram and the bread that is in the basket by the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.

³³ And they shall eat those things with which they were reconciled, to fill their hands to be sanctified; but a stranger shall not eat thereof because they are holiness.

³⁴ And if any of the flesh of the consecrations or of the bread remains unto the morning, then thou shalt burn the remainder with fire; it shall not be eaten, because it is holiness.

³⁵ And thus shalt thou do unto Aaron and to his sons, according to all the things which I have commanded thee; for seven days shalt thou consecrate them.

³⁶ And thou shalt sacrifice a bullock every day for reconciliation of sin; and thou shalt remove the sin from the altar, and thou shalt anoint it to sanctify it.

³⁷ For seven days thou shalt reconcile the altar and sanctify it; and it shall be a most holy altar; whatever touches the altar shall be made holy.

³⁸ ¶ Now this is that which thou shalt offer upon the altar: two lambs of the first year every day continually.

³⁹ The one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning, and the other lamb thou shalt offer at evening.

⁴⁰ Moreover a tenth ephah of flour mingled with the fourth part of a hin of beaten oil and the fourth part of a hin of wine with each lamb.

⁴¹ And thou shalt offer the other lamb at evening, doing according to the present of the morning and according to its drink offering thereof, for a sweet savour, an offering on fire unto the LORD.

⁴² This shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your ages at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony before the LORD, where I will concert with you, to speak there unto you.

⁴³ And there I will testify of myself unto the sons of Israel, and the place shall be sanctified with my glory.

⁴⁴ And I will sanctify the tabernacle of the testimony and the altar; I will likewise sanctify both Aaron and his sons that they may be my priests.

⁴⁵ And I will dwell among the sons of Israel and shall be their God.

⁴⁶ And they shall know that I am the LORD their God, that brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, that I may dwell among them; I am the LORD your God.

30 ¶ In the same manner thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon; of cedar wood shalt thou make it.

² Its length shall be a cubit and its width a cubit; it shall be square and its height two cubits; its horns shall be of the same.

³ And thou shalt cover it with pure gold, its top and its sides round about, and its horns; and thou shalt make unto it a moulding of gold round about.

⁴ And two golden rings shalt thou make to it under its moulding by its two corners on both sides for places for the staves to bear it with.

⁵ And thou shalt make the staves of cedar wood and cover them with gold.

⁶ And thou shalt put it before the veil that is by the ark of the testimony, before the seat of reconciliation that is over the testimony, where I will testify unto thee of myself.

⁷ And Aaron shall burn sweet incense thereon every morning; when he dresses the lamps, he shall burn it.

⁸ And when Aaron lights the lamps at evening, he shall burn incense upon it continually before the LORD throughout your ages.

⁹ Ye shall offer no strange incense thereon nor burnt sacrifice nor present; neither shall ye pour drink offering thereon.

¹⁰ And Aaron shall make reconciliation upon the horns of it once a year with the blood of the reconciliation for sin; once a year shall he make reconciliation upon it throughout your ages; it shall be most holy unto the LORD.

¹¹ ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

¹² When thou takest the number of the sons of Israel after the sum of them, each one shall give a ransom for his soul unto the LORD, when thou dost number them, that there be no mortality in them because of numbering them.

¹³ This shall be given by every one that passes among those that are numbered: half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary (a shekel is twenty gerahs); a half shekel shall be the offering to the LORD.

¹⁴ Anyone that passes among those that are numbered, from twenty years old and above, shall give the offering unto the LORD.

¹⁵ The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel, when they give the offering unto the LORD to make reconciliation for your souls.

¹⁶ And thou shalt take the reconciliation money of the sons of Israel and shalt appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of the testimony, and it shall be a memorial unto the sons of Israel before the LORD to reconcile your souls.

¹⁷ ¶ And the LORD spoke further unto Moses, saying,

¹⁸ Thou shalt also make a laver of brass, and its base also of brass, to wash with; and thou shalt place it between the tabernacle of the testimony and the altar, and thou shalt put water in it.

¹⁹ And from it Aaron and his sons shall wash their hands and their feet.

²⁰ When they go into the tabernacle of the testimony, they shall wash with water that they not die, or when they come near to the altar to minister, to burn the offering unto the LORD that must be consumed by fire,

²¹ they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they not die. And he and his seed shall have it as a perpetual statute throughout their generations.

²² ¶ The LORD spoke further unto Moses, saying,

²³ Thou must take unto thee of the principal spices: of excellent myrrh five hundred shekels and of aromatic cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty shekels, and of aromatic calamus two hundred and fifty shekels,

²⁴ and of cassia five hundred shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil olive one hin;

²⁵ and thou shalt make of it the oil of the holy anointing, a superior ointment, after the art of the apothecary, which shall be the oil of the holy anointing.

²⁶ And thou shalt anoint the tabernacle of the testimony with it and the ark of the testimony

²⁷ and the table and all its vessels and the lampstand and its vessels and the altar of incense

²⁸ and the altar of burnt offering with all its vessels and the laver and its base.

²⁹ Thus thou shalt consecrate them, and they shall be most holy; whatever touches them shall be sanctified.

³⁰ And thou shalt also anoint Aaron and his sons and sanctify them that they may be my priests.

³¹ And thou shalt speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, This shall be my oil of the holy anointing throughout your ages.

³² It shall not be poured upon man’s flesh; neither shall ye make any other like it, after the composition of it; it is holy, and it shall be holy unto you.

³³ Whoever compounds any like it and puts any of it upon a stranger shall be cut off from his people.

³⁴ And the LORD said unto Moses, Take unto thee aromas, stacte and onycha and aromatic galbanum and pure frankincense, of each in equal weight.

³⁵ And thou shalt make it a perfume, a confection after the art of the apothecary, tempered together, pure and holy;

³⁶ and thou shalt beat some of it very small and put of it before the testimony in the tabernacle of the testimony, where I will testify unto thee of myself. It shall be most holy unto you.

³⁷ And as for the perfume which thou shalt make, ye shall not make to yourselves another according to the composition thereof: it shall be holiness unto thee for the LORD.

³⁸ Whoever shall make another like unto that to smell it shall be cut off from his people.

31 ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

² See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah;

³ and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom and in intelligence and in science and in all manner of workmanship,

⁴ to devise cunning works, to work in gold and in silver and in brass,

⁵ and in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.

⁶ And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan; and in the desire of all that are wise hearted I have put wisdom that they may make all that I have commanded thee:

⁷ The tabernacle of the testimony and the ark of the testimony and the seat of reconciliation that shall be upon it and all the vessels of the tabernacle

⁸ and the table and its vessels and the pure lampstand with all its vessels and the altar of incense,

⁹ and the altar of burnt offering with all its vessels and the laver and its base

¹⁰ and the clothes of service and the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons that they may be priests,

¹¹ and the anointing oil and aromatic incense for the sanctuary; they shall do according to all that I have commanded thee.

¹² ¶ And the LORD spoke further unto Moses, saying,

¹³ And thou shalt speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, With all this ye shall keep my sabbaths; for it is a sign between me and you throughout your ages; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you.

¹⁴ Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you; those that defile it shall surely be put to death; for whoever does any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.

¹⁵ Six days shall work be done; but the seventh, the sabbath of rest, shall be holy to the LORD; whoever does any work in the sabbath day shall surely be put to death.

¹⁶ Therefore the sons of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their ages for a perpetual covenant.

¹⁷ It is a sign between me and the sons of Israel for ever; for in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, and on the seventh day he rested and was refreshed.

¹⁸ And he gave unto Moses, when he finished speaking with him upon Mount Sinai, two tables of the testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.

32 ¶ And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron and said unto him, Rise up, make us gods which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him.

² And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.

³ Then all the people broke off the golden earrings which were in their ears and brought them unto Aaron,

⁴ who took them from their hands and fashioned it with a graving tool and made of it a molten calf. Then they said, These are thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

⁵ And seeing this, Aaron built an altar before the calf; and Aaron made a proclamation and said, Tomorrow shall be a feast unto the LORD.

⁶ And they rose up early on the next day and offered burnt offerings and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink and rose up to play.

⁷ ¶ Then the LORD said unto Moses, Go, descend; for thy people, which thou didst bring out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves:

⁸ They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them; they have made themselves a molten calf and have worshipped it and have sacrificed unto it and said, These are thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

⁹ The LORD further said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and for certain it is a stiffnecked people.

¹⁰ Now therefore let me alone that my wrath may wax hot in them and consume them; and I will put thee over a great nation.

¹¹ Then Moses grieved before the LORD his God and said, LORD, why shall thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?

¹² Why should the Egyptians speak and say, For evil did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains and to consume them from upon the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath and repent of the evil of thy people.

¹³ Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy slaves, to whom thou didst sware by thine own self and hast said unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall take it for inheritance for ever.

¹⁴ Then the LORD repented of the evil which he said should be done unto his people.

¹⁵ ¶ And Moses turned and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand; the tables were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other were they written.

¹⁶ And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables.

¹⁷ And Joshua, hearing the noise of the people as they shouted, said unto Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.

¹⁸ And he answered, It is not the voice of those that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of those that cry for being overcome, but the noise of those that sing that I hear.

¹⁹ And it came to pass as soon as he came near unto the camp and he saw the calf and the dances, anger caused Moses to wax hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands and broke them at the foot of the mount.

²⁰ And he took the calf which they had made and burnt it in the fire and ground it to powder and scattered it upon the waters and made the sons of Israel drink it.

²¹ ¶ And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people do unto thee that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them?

²² And Aaron answered, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot; thou knowest the people that they are inclined to evil.

²³ For they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall go before us, for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what is become of him.

²⁴ And I answered unto them, Whoever has any gold, let them break it off. So they gave it to me and I cast it into the fire, and this calf came out.

²⁵ And when Moses saw that the people were naked (for Aaron had made them naked unto their shame among their enemies),

²⁶ Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp and said, Who is on the LORD’s side? Come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him.

²⁷ And he said unto them, Thus hath the LORD God of Israel said, Put every man his sword by his side and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp and slay each one his brother and his companion and his neighbour.

²⁸ And the sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses, and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.

²⁹ Then Moses had said, Today you have consecrated yourselves to the LORD, for each one has consecrated in his son and in his brother, that he may bestow upon you a blessing this day.

³⁰ ¶ And it came to pass on the next day that Moses said unto the people, Ye have sinned a great sin, but now I will go up unto the LORD; peradventure I shall make reconciliation for your sin.

³¹ Then Moses returned unto the LORD and said, I pray thee, for, this people who have sinned a great sin and have made themselves gods of gold,

³² that thou wilt forgive their sin; and if not, blot me now out of thy book which thou hast written.

³³ And the LORD answered unto Moses, Whoever has sinned against me, this one will I blot out of my book.

³⁴ Therefore go now, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken unto thee; behold, my Angel shall go before thee; nevertheless in the day of my visitation I will visit their sin in them.

³⁵ And the LORD smote the people because they had made the calf, which Aaron formed.

33 ¶ And the LORD said unto Moses, Depart and go up from here, thou and the people which thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt unto the land which I swore unto Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will I give it.

² (And I will send an angel before thee; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.)

³ Unto the land flowing with milk and honey; for I will not go up in the midst of thee; for thou art a stiffnecked people lest I consume thee in the way.

⁴ And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned, and no one put on their ornaments.

⁵ For the LORD had said unto Moses, Say unto the sons of Israel, Ye are a stiffnecked people; I will come up into the midst of thee in a moment and consume thee; therefore now put off thy ornaments from thee that I may know what to do unto thee.

⁶ Then the sons of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments from Mount Horeb on.

⁷ ¶ And Moses took the tabernacle and pitched it outside the camp, afar off from the camp, and called it the tabernacle of the testimony. And it came to pass that every one who sought the LORD went out unto the tabernacle of the testimony, which was outside the camp.

⁸ And it came to pass when Moses would go out unto the tabernacle, that all the people would rise up and stand each one at the door of their tent, with their gaze following Moses until he was gone into the tabernacle.

⁹ And when Moses would enter into the tabernacle, the pillar of cloud would descend and stand at the door of the tabernacle, and the LORD would talk with Moses.

¹⁰ And when all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door, all the people would rise up, each one in the door of their tent, and worship.

¹¹ And the LORD would speak unto Moses face to face, as anyone would speak unto their friend. And he would turn again into the camp, but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, did not depart out of the tabernacle.

¹² ¶ And Moses said unto the LORD, See, thou sayest unto me, Bring this people out, and thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou saith, I know thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight.

¹³ Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, show me now thy way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thy sight; and consider that this nation is thy people.

¹⁴ And he said, My presence {Heb. faces} shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.

¹⁵ And he said unto him, If thy presence {Heb. faces} is not to go before us, do not bring us out of here.

¹⁶ For in what shall it be known here that I have found grace in thy sight, I and thy people, but in that thou goest with us, and I and thy people will be separated from all the peoples that are upon the face of the earth?

¹⁷ And the LORD said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken because thou hast found grace in my sight, and I have known thee by name.

¹⁸ Then he said, I beseech thee, show me thy glory.

¹⁹ And he replied, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name that I AM before thee; and I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy and will show clemency on whom I will show clemency.

²⁰ He further said, Thou canst not see my face; for no man shall see me and live.

²¹ And the LORD continued saying, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon the rock;

²² and it shall come to pass while my glory passes by, that I will put thee in a cleft of the rock and will cover thee with my hand until I have passed by.

²³ Then I will take away my hand, and thou shalt see my back parts, but my face {Heb. faces} shall not be seen.

34 ¶ And the LORD said unto Moses, Hew two tables of stone like unto the first; and I will write upon these tables the words that were in the first tables, which thou didst break.

² And be ready for tomorrow and come up in the morning unto Mount Sinai and present thyself there to me in the top of the mount.

³ And no man shall come up with thee; neither let anyone be seen throughout all the mount; neither let the sheep nor the cows feed before the mount.

⁴ And he hewed two tables of stone like unto the first, and Moses rose up early in the morning and went up unto Mount Sinai, as the LORD had commanded him, and took in his hand the two tables of stone.

⁵ ¶ And the LORD descended in a cloud and was with him there proclaiming the name of I AM.

⁶ And as the LORD passed by before him, he proclaimed, I AM, I AM strong, merciful, and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in mercy and truth,

⁷ keeping mercy for thousands, letting go of iniquity and rebellion and sin; and by no means will I absolve the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons and upon the sons’ sons, unto the third and to the fourth generation.

⁸ Then Moses made haste and bowed his head toward the earth and worshipped.

⁹ And he said, If now I have found grace in thy sight, O Lord, let my Lord, I pray thee, go among us, for this is a stiffnecked people, and forgive our iniquity and our sin and possess us.

¹⁰ ¶ And he said, Behold, I make a covenant before all thy people: I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among whom thou art shall see the work of the LORD; for it shall be a terrible thing that I will do with thee.

¹¹ Keep that which I command thee this day; behold, I drive out before thee the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

¹² Keep thyself lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where thou must enter lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee;

¹³ but ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves;

¹⁴ for thou shalt worship no other god; for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.

¹⁵ Therefore thou shalt not make a covenant with the inhabitants of that land because they shall fornicate after their gods and do sacrifice unto their gods, and they shall call thee, and thou shalt eat of their sacrifices

¹⁶ or take of their daughters unto thy sons, and when their daughters go fornicating after their gods they shall make thy sons also fornicate after their gods.

¹⁷ Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.

¹⁸ ¶ The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, in the time of the month Abib; for in the month Abib thou didst come out from Egypt.

¹⁹ All that opens the womb is mine; and every firstborn among thy livestock, whether of cow or of sheep, that is male.

²⁰ But the firstborn of an ass thou shalt ransom with a lamb, and if thou ransom him not, then shalt thou cut off his head. All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt ransom, and none shall appear before me empty.

²¹ Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt cease; in ploughing time and in harvest thou shalt cease.

²² And thou shalt keep the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of the reaping of the wheat, and the feast of ingathering at the year’s end.

²³ Three times in the year shall all your males appear before the GOD who is Lord of all, the God of Israel.

²⁴ For I will cast the Gentiles out of thy presence and enlarge thy borders; neither shall anyone covet thy land when thou shalt go up to be seen before the LORD thy God three times a year.

²⁵ Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice upon anything leavened; neither shall any of the sacrifice of the feast of the passover be left unto the morning.

²⁶ The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not cook a kid in his mother’s milk.

²⁷ And the LORD said unto Moses, Write thou these words; for according to these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel.

²⁸ ¶ And he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he did not eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.

²⁹ And it came to pass, as Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses’ hand, while he came down from the mount, that Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone after he had talked with him.

³⁰ And when Aaron and all the sons of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone; and they were afraid to come near him.

³¹ And Moses called them, and Aaron and all the princes of the congregation returned unto him, and Moses talked with them.

³² And afterward all the sons of Israel came near, and he gave them in commandment all that the LORD had spoken with him in Mount Sinai.

³³ And when Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil over his face.

³⁴ But when Moses went in before the LORD to speak with him, he would take the veil off until he came out. And as he came out, he would speak unto the sons of Israel that which he was commanded.

³⁵ And the sons of Israel would see the face of Moses that the skin of Moses’ face shone, and Moses would put the veil upon his face again until he would go in to speak with him.

35 ¶ And Moses gathered all the congregation of the sons of Israel together and said unto them, These are the words which the LORD has commanded that ye should do them.

² Six days shall work be done, but the seventh day shall be holy unto you, a sabbath of rest to the LORD; whoever does work therein shall die.

³ Ye shall kindle no fire in any of your habitations upon the sabbath day.

⁴ And Moses spoke unto all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, This is what the LORD commanded, saying,

⁵ Take ye from among you an offering unto the LORD; whoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, an offering of the LORD: gold, silver, brass;

⁶ blue, purple, scarlet, fine linen, goats’ hair;

⁷ rams’ skins dyed red, badgers’ skins, cedar wood;

⁸ oil for the light, spices for anointing oil and for the aromatic incense;

⁹ onyx stones, and stones to be set for the ephod, and for the pectoral.

¹⁰ And everyone that is wise hearted among you shall come and make all that the LORD has commanded:

¹¹ The tabernacle, its tent, and its covering, its hooks, and its boards, its bars, its pillars, and its sockets;

¹² the ark and its staves, the seat of reconciliation, and the veil of the tent,

¹³ the table and its staves and all its vessels, and the showbread;

¹⁴ the lampstand also for the light and its vessels and its lamps, and the oil for the light;

¹⁵ and the altar of incense and its staves, and the anointing oil, and the aromatic incense, and the hanging for the door at the entrance of the tabernacle,

¹⁶ the altar of burnt offering with its brasen grate, its staves, and all its vessels, the laver and its base,

¹⁷ the hangings of the court, its pillars, and their sockets, and the hanging for the door of the court,

¹⁸ the stakes of the tabernacle and the stakes of the court, and their cords,

¹⁹ the clothing of service to minister in the sanctuary, that is, the holy garments of Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons to serve in the priesthood.

²⁰ ¶ And all the congregation of the sons of Israel departed from the presence of Moses.

²¹ And they came, every man whose heart stirred him up, and every one whose spirit made them willing, and they brought the LORD’s offering for the work of the tabernacle of the testimony and for all his service and for the holy garments.

²² And they came, both men and women, as many as were willing hearted, and brought chains and earrings, rings and bracelets, and all jewels of gold; and anyone that offered an offering of gold unto the LORD.

²³ Every man who had blue or purple or scarlet or fine linen or goats’ hair or red skins of rams or badgers’ skins brought them.

²⁴ Anyone that offered an offering of silver or brass brought the offering unto the LORD; and every man, with whom was found cedar wood, brought it for all the work of the service.

²⁵ And all the women that were wise hearted spun with their hands and brought that which they had spun: blue or purple or scarlet or fine linen.

²⁶ And all the women whose heart lifted them up in wisdom spun goats’ hair.

²⁷ And the princes brought onyx stones and the stones to be set for the ephod and for the pectoral;

²⁸ and aromatic spice and oil for the light and for the anointing oil and for the aromatic incense.

²⁹ Of the sons of Israel, men and women, all that had a willing heart to bring for all the work, which the Lord had commanded to be made by the hand of Moses, brought a voluntary offering unto the LORD.

³⁰ ¶ And Moses said unto the sons of Israel, See, the LORD has named Bezaleel, the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah;

³¹ and he has filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in intelligence, in science, and in all manner of workmanship;

³² to invent and devise, to work in gold and in silver and in brass,

³³ and in the cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of wood, to make any manner of cunning work.

³⁴ And he has put in his heart that he may teach, both he, and Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.

³⁵ And he has filled them with wisdom of heart to work all manner of work of the engraver and of the cunning workman and of the embroiderer, in blue and in purple, in scarlet, and in fine linen, and of the weaver: that they may do any work, and invent every design.

36 ¶ Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab and every wise hearted man unto whom the LORD gave wisdom and intelligence to know how to do all the work of the service of the sanctuary, all the things that the LORD had commanded.

² And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab and every wise hearted man in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom and every one whose heart stirred him up to come unto the work to do it;

³ and they took from the presence of Moses all the offering which the sons of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it with. And they brought yet unto him free will offerings every morning.

⁴ So much that all the wise men that wrought all the work of the sanctuary came every man from his work which they made,

⁵ and they spoke with Moses, saying, The people bring much more than enough for the work of the ministry which the LORD commanded to make.

⁶ And Moses commanded it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary. So the people were restrained from bringing,

⁷ for they had abundant material for all the work; more than enough to make it with.

⁸ ¶ And everyone with a wise heart among those that wrought the work made the tabernacle of ten curtains of fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet, which they made of cunning work, with cherubim.

⁹ The length of one curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits; the curtains were all of one size.

¹⁰ And he coupled the five curtains one unto another; and the other five curtains he coupled one unto another.

¹¹ And he made loops of blue on the edge of one curtain in the border in the coupling; likewise he made in the border of the second curtain in the coupling.

¹² Fifty loops made he in one curtain, and fifty loops made he in the edge of the second curtain in the border in the coupling, the loops in front of the others.

¹³ And he made fifty hooks of gold and coupled the curtains one unto another with the hooks, so it became one tabernacle.

¹⁴ ¶ Likewise he made curtains of goats’ hair for the tent over the tabernacle; he made eleven curtains.

¹⁵ The length of one curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits was the breadth of one curtain; the eleven curtains were of one size.

¹⁶ And he coupled five curtains by themselves and six curtains by themselves.

¹⁷ And he made fifty loops upon the edge of the uttermost curtain in the coupling, and he made another fifty loops upon the edge of the other curtain in the coupling.

¹⁸ And he also made fifty hooks of brass to couple the tent together, that it might be one.

¹⁹ And he made a covering for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and another covering of badgers’ skins above that.

²⁰ And he made the boards for the tabernacle of cedar wood, standing up.

²¹ The length of each board was ten cubits, and the breadth one cubit and a half.

²² Each board had two tenons, equally distant one from another; thus did he make all the boards of the tabernacle.

²³ He made, therefore, the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards for the south side towards the Negev.

²⁴ He also made the forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards: two sockets under one board for its two tenons and two sockets under another board for its two tenons.

²⁵ And for the other side of the tabernacle, on the side of the Aquilon, {the north wind} he made twenty boards,

²⁶ with their forty sockets of silver: two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.

²⁷ And for the westward side of the tabernacle he made six boards.

²⁸ And he made two boards for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides,

²⁹ which were coupled beneath and likewise coupled together above to a ring; thus he did to both of them in both the corners.

³⁰ There were, therefore, eight boards; and their sockets were sixteen sockets of silver, under every board two sockets.

³¹ And he also made bars of cedar wood: five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,

³² and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the westward side.

³³ And he made the middle bar to pass through the boards from the one end to the other.

³⁴ And he covered the boards with gold and made their rings of gold for the bars to pass through and covered the bars with gold also.

³⁵ ¶ Likewise he made the veil of blue and purple and scarlet and fine twined linen, which he made with cherubim of cunning work.

³⁶ And for it he made four pillars of cedar and covered them with gold; their capitals were of gold; and he cast for them four sockets of silver.

³⁷ Likewise he made the veil for the tabernacle door of blue and purple and scarlet and fine twined linen, of needlework,

³⁸ and its five pillars with their capitals; and he covered their heads and their fillets with gold; and their five sockets he made of brass.

37 ¶ Bezaleel also made the ark of cedar wood; two cubits and a half was the length of it, a cubit and a half the breadth of it, and a cubit and a half the height of it;

² and he covered it with pure gold within and without and made a moulding of gold to it round about.

³ And he cast for it four rings of gold, to be set by the four corners of it: even two rings upon the one side of it and two rings upon the other side of it.

⁴ He also made the staves of cedar wood and covered them with gold.

⁵ And he put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark.

⁶ He made the seat of reconciliation likewise of pure gold; two cubits and a half was its length, and one cubit and a half its breadth.

⁷ He also made the two cherubim of gold, beaten out of one piece he made them, on the two ends of the seat of reconciliation;

⁸ one cherub on the end on this side and another cherub on the other end on that side of the seat of reconciliation; he made the cherubim on the two ends thereof.

⁹ And the cherubim spread out their wings above, covering with their wings the seat of reconciliation, with their faces one to another; the faces of the cherubim were facing the covering.

¹⁰ ¶ And he made the table of cedar wood; two cubits was the length thereof and a cubit the breadth thereof and a cubit and a half the height thereof;

¹¹ and he covered it with pure gold and made it a moulding of gold round about.

¹² He also made it a border of a handbreadth round about and made a moulding of gold for the border thereof round about.

¹³ And he cast for it four rings of gold and put the rings upon the four corners that correspond to the four feet thereof.

¹⁴ Over against the border were the rings, the places for the staves to bear the table.

¹⁵ And he made the staves of cedar wood and covered them with gold, to bear the table.

¹⁶ He also made the vessels which were upon the table, its dishes, its spoons, its bowls, and its covers to cover the bread, of pure gold.

¹⁷ He made the lampstand likewise of pure gold; of beaten work he made the lampstand, its shaft and its branch, its bowls, its knops, and its flowers were of the same.

¹⁸ Out of the sides thereof went six branches, three branches out of one side of the lampstand and three branches out of the other side of the lampstand;

¹⁹ in one branch there were three bowls made after the fashion of almonds, a knop and a flower; and in the other branch there were three bowls made like almonds, a knop and a flower, so throughout the six branches going out of the lampstand.

²⁰ And in the lampstand were four bowls made like almonds, their knops, and their flowers,

²¹ and a knop under the two branches of the same and another knop under two branches of the same and a knop under the two other branches of the same, according to the six branches going out of it.

²² Their knops and their branches were of the same; all of it was one beaten work of pure gold.

²³ He made likewise its seven lamps and its snuffers and its snuff dishes of pure gold.

²⁴ Of a talent of pure gold he made it and all its vessels.

²⁵ ¶ He also made the altar of incense of cedar wood: the length of it was a cubit and the breadth of it a cubit; it was square; and two cubits was the height of it; its horns were of the same piece.

²⁶ And he covered it with pure gold, its top and its sides round about and its horns; and he made it a moulding of gold round about.

²⁷ He also made two rings of gold for it under the moulding thereof, by the two corners of it, upon its two sides, to be places for the staves to bear it with.

²⁸ And he made the staves of cedar wood and covered them with gold.

²⁹ He made likewise the oil of the holy anointing and the pure aromatic incense, according to the work of the apothecary.

38 ¶ And he made the altar of burnt offering of cedar wood: five cubits was its length and five cubits its breadth; it was square, and its height was three cubits.

² And he made its horns on the four corners of it; its horns were of the same piece; and he covered it with brass.

³ He made likewise all the vessels of the altar: the pots and the shovels and the basins and the fleshhooks, and the firepans; all its vessels he made of brass.

⁴ And he made for the altar the brasen grate of network under the circumference thereof beneath unto the midst of it.

⁵ He also cast four rings for the four ends of the grate of brass, to be places for the staves.

⁶ And he made the staves of cedar wood and covered them with brass.

⁷ And he put the staves into the rings on the sides of the altar, to bear it with; he made the altar hollow with boards.

⁸ He also made the laver of brass and the base of it of brass, of the looking glasses of the women who were vigilant at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.

⁹ ¶ He made the court likewise; on the south side towards the Negev the hangings of the court were of fine twined linen, one hundred cubits;

¹⁰ their pillars were twenty with their twenty brasen sockets; the capitals of the pillars and their fillets were of silver.

¹¹ And for the side of the Aquilon, the hangings were one hundred cubits, their pillars twenty with their twenty sockets of brass, the capitals of the pillars and their fillets of silver.

¹² On the west side were hangings of fifty cubits, their pillars ten and their sockets ten, the capitals of the pillars and their fillets of silver,

¹³ and for the east side eastward fifty cubits

¹⁴ the hangings of the one side fifteen cubits, their pillars three, and their sockets three;

¹⁵ and for the other side of the court gate, on this hand and that hand, were hangings of fifteen cubits, their pillars three and their sockets three.

¹⁶ All the hangings of the court round about were of fine twined linen.

¹⁷ And the sockets for the pillars were of brass, the capitals of the pillars and their fillets of silver and the coverings of their heads of silver; likewise all the pillars of the court were filleted with silver.

¹⁸ And the hanging for the gate of the court was needlework of blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen; twenty cubits was the length, and the height in the breadth was five cubits, the same as the hangings of the court.

¹⁹ And its pillars were four with its four sockets of brass, their capitals of silver, and the coverings of their heads and their fillets of silver.

²⁰ And all the stakes of the tabernacle and of the court round about were of brass.

²¹ ¶ This is the sum of the tabernacle, even of the tabernacle of testimony, as it was counted, according to the commandment of Moses, for the ministry of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar, son to Aaron the priest.

²² And Bezaleel, the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that the LORD commanded Moses.

²³ And with him was Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, a master workman, an engineer, and an embroiderer in blue and in purple and in scarlet and fine linen.

²⁴ All the gold that was occupied for the work in all the work of the sanctuary, which was gold of offering, was twenty-nine talents and seven hundred and thirty shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary.

²⁵ And the silver of those that were numbered of the congregation was one hundred talents and one thousand seven hundred and seventy-five shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary:

²⁶ A half per head, that is, half a shekel, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, for every one that went to be numbered, from twenty years old and upward, which were six hundred and three thousand five hundred and fifty.

²⁷ And of the hundred talents of silver were cast the sockets of the sanctuary and the sockets of the veil: one hundred sockets of the hundred talents, a talent for a socket.

²⁸ And of the thousand seven hundred seventy-five shekels he made the capitals for the pillars and covered their heads and filleted them.

²⁹ And the brass of the offering was seventy talents and two thousand four hundred shekels,

³⁰ with which he made the sockets to the door of the tabernacle of the testimony and the brasen altar and the brasen grate for it and all the vessels of the altar

³¹ and the sockets of the court round about and the sockets of the court gate and all the stakes of the tabernacle, and all the stakes of the court round about.

39 ¶ And of the blue and purple and scarlet, they made the clothing of the ministry, to minister in the sanctuary, and in the same manner they made the holy garments for Aaron; as the LORD had commanded Moses.

² He also made the ephod of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen.

³ And they beat the gold into thin plates and cut it into wires to work it in the blue and in the purple and in the scarlet and in the fine linen, with cunning work.

⁴ They made the shoulder pieces for it to couple it together; by the two edges was it coupled together.

⁵ And the special girdle of his ephod, that was over it, was of the same, according to the work thereof: of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen as the LORD had commanded Moses.

⁶ And they wrought onyx stones inclosed in settings of gold, graven, as seals are graven, with the names of the sons of Israel.

⁷ And he put them on the shoulders of the ephod that they should be stones for a memorial to the sons of Israel, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

⁸ He also made the pectoral of cunning work, like the work of the ephod of gold, blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen.

⁹ It was square; they made the pectoral double; a span was the length thereof and a span the breadth thereof, being doubled.

¹⁰ And they set in it four orders of stones. The order was a ruby, an emerald, and a chrysolite: this was the first order.

¹¹ The second order, a carbuncle, a sapphire, and a diamond.

¹² The third order, a topaz, a turquoise, and an amethyst.

¹³ And the fourth order, a tarshish (or beryl), an onyx, and a jasper; they were set and inclosed in their settings of gold.

¹⁴ The stones were in agreement with the names of the sons of Israel, twelve, in agreement with their names, like the engravings of a seal, each one in agreement with his name, according to the twelve tribes.

¹⁵ They also made the small chains upon the pectoral of wreathen work of pure gold.

¹⁶ In the same manner they made two settings of gold and two gold rings and put the two rings in the two ends of the pectoral.

¹⁷ And they put the two wreathen chains of gold in those two rings on the ends of the pectoral.

¹⁸ And the two ends of the two wreathen chains they fastened in the two settings, which they put on the shoulder pieces of the ephod, on the front part of it.

¹⁹ And they made two rings of gold and put them on the two ends of the pectoral upon the border of it, which was on the lower side of the ephod.

²⁰ And they made two other golden rings and put them on the two sides of the ephod underneath toward the front part of it, in the front of its coupling, above the special girdle of the ephod.

²¹ And they bound the pectoral by its rings to the rings of the ephod with a blue lace, that it might be above the special girdle of the ephod and that the pectoral might not be loosed from the ephod, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

²² And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all of blue,

²³ with its collar in the midst of the robe, as the collar of a habergeon, with a band round about the collar that it should not rend.

²⁴ And they made upon the hems of the robe pomegranates of blue, purple, scarlet, and twined linen.

²⁵ They also made the bells of pure gold and put the bells between the pomegranates upon the hem of the robe, round about between the pomegranates;

²⁶ A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, round about the hem of the robe to minister in, as the LORD commanded Moses.

²⁷ And they made the coats of fine linen of woven work for Aaron and for his sons,

²⁸ likewise the mitre of fine linen and the decorations of the tiaras of fine linen and the linen underwear of fine twined linen,

²⁹ also the girdle of fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet of needlework, as the LORD commanded Moses.

³⁰ And they made the open flower, the crown of holiness, of pure gold and wrote upon it a writing, like to the engravings of a seal, HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD.

³¹ And they tied unto it a lace of blue to fasten it over the mitre, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

³² ¶ Thus was all the work of the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the testimony finished, and the sons of Israel did according to all that the LORD had commanded Moses, so did they.

³³ And they brought the tabernacle unto Moses, the tabernacle and all its furniture, its hooks, its boards, its bars and its pillars and its sockets,

³⁴ and the covering of rams’ skins dyed red and the covering of badgers’ skins and the veil of the curtain,

³⁵ the ark of the testimony and its staves, and the seat of reconciliation,

³⁶ the table and all its vessels, and the showbread,

³⁷ the pure lampstand with its lamps, even with the lamps to be set in order, and all its vessels and the oil for light,

³⁸ the golden altar and the anointing oil and the aromatic incense and the hanging for the tabernacle door.

³⁹ The brasen altar with its grate of brass, its staves, and all its vessels, and the laver and its base.

⁴⁰ The hangings of the court, its pillars and its sockets, and the hanging for the court gate, its cords and its stakes, and all the vessels of the service of the tabernacle, for the tabernacle of the testimony,

⁴¹ the clothing of service for ministry in the sanctuary, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest and his sons’ garments, to minister in the priesthood.

⁴² According to all that the LORD had commanded Moses, so the sons of Israel made all the work.

⁴³ And Moses looked upon all the work, and, behold, they had done it as the LORD had commanded, even so had they done it; and Moses blessed them.

40 ¶ And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,

² In the day of the first month, the first of the month shalt thou set up the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the testimony.

³ And thou shalt put therein the ark of the testimony and cover the ark with the veil.

⁴ And thou shalt bring in the table and set in order the things that are to be set in order upon it, and thou shalt bring in the lampstand and light its lamps.

⁵ And thou shalt set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the testimony and put the hanging of the door to the tabernacle.

⁶ Then thou shalt set the altar of the burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle, of the tabernacle of the testimony.

⁷ And thou shalt set the laver between the tabernacle of the congregation and the altar and shalt put water therein.

⁸ Last, thou shalt set up the court round about and hang up the hanging at the court gate.

⁹ And thou shalt take the anointing oil and anoint the tabernacle and all that is in it and shalt sanctify it with all its vessels, and it shall be holy.

¹⁰ And thou shalt also anoint the altar of the burnt offering and all its vessels and sanctify the altar, and it shall be an altar most holy.

¹¹ In the same manner thou shalt anoint the laver and its base and sanctify it.

¹² And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons unto the door of the tabernacle of the testimony and wash them with water.

¹³ And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments and anoint him and sanctify him, that he may be my priest.

¹⁴ And thou shalt bring his sons and clothe them with coats.

¹⁵ And thou shalt anoint them as thou didst anoint their father, and they shall be my priests; and it shall be that their anointing shall be unto them for a perpetual priesthood throughout their generations.

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

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

¹⁸ And Moses caused the tabernacle to be raised up and fastened its sockets and set up its boards and put in its bars and caused its pillars to be raised up.

¹⁹ And he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent above upon it, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

²⁰ And he took and put the testimony into the ark and set the staves on the ark and put the seat of reconciliation upon the ark above,

²¹ and he brought the ark into the tabernacle and set up the veil of the curtain and covered the ark of the testimony, as the LORD commanded Moses.

²² And he put the table in the tabernacle of the testimony, upon the side of the Aquilon of the tabernacle, outside the veil.

²³ And he set the bread in order upon it before the LORD, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

²⁴ And he put the lampstand in the tabernacle of the testimony, over against the table, on the side of the Negev of the tabernacle.

²⁵ And he lighted the lamps before the LORD, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

²⁶ He also put the golden altar in the tabernacle of the testimony before the veil.

²⁷ And he burnt aromatic incense on it, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

²⁸ In the same manner he set up the hanging at the door of the tabernacle.

²⁹ And he put the altar of burnt offering by the door of the tabernacle, of the tabernacle of the testimony, and offered upon it the burnt offering and the present, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

³⁰ And he set the laver between the tabernacle of the testimony and the altar and put water in it, to wash with.

³¹ And Moses and Aaron and his sons would wash their hands and their feet in it.

³² When they would enter into the tabernacle of the testimony and when they would come near unto the altar, they washed themselves, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

³³ Last he raised up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar and set up the hanging of the court gate. Thus Moses finished the work.

³⁴ ¶ Then a cloud covered the tabernacle of the testimony, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.

³⁵ And Moses was not able to enter into the tabernacle of the testimony because the cloud was upon it, and the glory of the LORD had it full.

³⁶ And when the cloud lifted itself up from over the tabernacle, the sons of Israel went onward in all their journeys;

³⁷ but if the cloud did not lift itself up, then they did not journey until the day that it lifted itself up.

³⁸ For the cloud of the LORD was upon the tabernacle by day, and the fire was in it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
