出埃及 40
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
支起会幕
40 耶和华对摩西说： 2 “你要在一月一日支起圣幕，即会幕， 3 把约柜安置在里面，用幔子遮掩。 4 把桌子搬进去，摆好桌上的器具，再把灯台搬进去，点上灯， 5 把烧香的金坛放在约柜前面，挂上圣幕入口的帘子。 6 要把燔祭坛放在圣幕前面， 7 洗濯盆放在会幕和祭坛中间，盆里要有水。 8 用帷幔在圣幕四周围成院子，在院子的入口挂上帘子。 9 你要用膏油抹圣幕和里面所有的器具，使它们分别出来，成为圣洁之物。 10 要抹燔祭坛和坛上所有器具，使燔祭坛分别出来，成为至圣之物。 11 要抹洗濯盆和盆座，使它们分别出来，成为圣洁之物。 12 要把亚伦父子们叫到会幕入口，用水为他们沐浴， 13 给亚伦穿上圣衣后膏立他，使他分别出来，做圣洁的祭司事奉我。 14 也要把他的儿子们叫来，给他们穿上内袍， 15 用同样的仪式膏立他们，使他们做祭司事奉我。他们的受膏将使他们永远做祭司，世代相传。”
16 摩西照耶和华的吩咐把事情都办好了。 17 第二年一月一日，圣幕支起来了。 18 摩西支起圣幕，装上带凹槽的底座，竖起木板，插上横闩，立起柱子， 19 在圣幕上面搭起罩棚，铺上顶盖，都遵照耶和华的吩咐。 20 他把约版放在约柜里，横杠穿在约柜的两旁，施恩座放在约柜上， 21 把约柜抬进圣幕，挂起幔子遮掩约柜，都遵照耶和华的吩咐。 22 他把桌子放在会幕内、遮掩约柜的幔子外面、圣幕的北侧， 23 将献给耶和华的供饼放在桌上，都遵照耶和华的吩咐。 24 他把灯台放在会幕内的桌子对面，在圣幕的南侧， 25 然后在耶和华面前点灯，都遵照耶和华的吩咐。 26 他把金香坛放在会幕里、遮掩约柜的幔子前面， 27 在坛上点燃芬芳的香，都遵照耶和华的吩咐。 28 他挂上圣幕入口的帘子， 29 在会幕，即圣幕入口的前面设立燔祭坛，在坛上献燔祭和素祭，都遵照耶和华的吩咐。 30 他把洗濯盆放在会幕和祭坛之间，盆里盛水，供洗濯用。 31 摩西、亚伦及其众子都在那里清洗手脚， 32 他们进会幕或走近祭坛的时候，都要先清洗，都遵照耶和华的吩咐。 33 摩西又在圣幕和祭坛的四周用帷幔围成院子，然后在院子入口挂上帘子。这样，摩西完成了工作。
耶和华的荣光
34 那时，有云彩遮盖会幕，耶和华的荣光充满了圣幕。 35 摩西不能进会幕，因为云彩停在上面，耶和华的荣光充满了圣幕。 36 一路上，云彩从圣幕升起，他们就出发。 37 云彩不升起，他们就不出发，一直等到云彩升起。 38 一路上，白天有耶和华的云彩停留在圣幕上面，夜间云中有火光为以色列百姓照明。
Exodus 40
GOD’S WORD Translation
Instructions for Setting Up the Tent
40 Then the Lord said to Moses, 2 “Set up the tent (the tent of meeting) on the first day of the first month of the year. 3 Place the ark containing the words of my promise inside it, and hang the canopy over the ark. 4 Bring in the table, and arrange everything on it. Bring in the lamp stand, and set up the lamps. 5 Put the gold altar for incense in front of the ark. Put up the screen at the entrance to the tent.
6 “Put the altar for burnt offerings in front of the entrance to the tent of meeting. 7 Put the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it. 8 Set up the surrounding courtyard, and put up the screen at the entrance to the courtyard. 9 Take the anointing oil, and anoint the tent and everything in it. In this way you will dedicate it and all its furnishings. Then it will be holy. 10 Anoint the altar for burnt offerings and all the utensils. In this way you will dedicate the altar, and it will be most holy. 11 Anoint the basin and stand, and they will be dedicated.
12 “Bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the tent of meeting, and wash them. 13 Then dress Aaron in the holy clothes, and anoint him. In this way you will dedicate him to serve me as priest. 14 Have his sons come forward, and dress them in their linen robes. 15 Anoint them to serve me as priests, as you anointed their father. Their anointing will begin a permanent priesthood for them for generations to come.”
Moses Sets Up the Tent
16 Moses did everything as the Lord commanded him. 17 So the tent was set up on the first day of the first month of the second year ⌞after the Israelites had left Egypt⌟. 18 When Moses set up the tent, he put the sockets in place, put up the frames, inserted the crossbars, and set up the posts. 19 He spread the outer tent over the inner tent and put the cover on top. Moses followed the Lord’s instructions.
20 He took the words of God’s promise and put them in the ark. He put the poles on the ark and placed the throne of mercy on top of the ark. 21 Then he brought the ark into the tent and hung the canopy over it to mark off where the ark was. Moses followed the Lord’s instructions.
22 Moses put the table in the tent of meeting on the north side of the tent outside the canopy. 23 He arranged the bread on the table in the Lord’s presence, following the Lord’s instructions. 24 He placed the lamp stand in the tent of meeting opposite the table, on the south side of the tent. 25 He set up the lamps in the Lord’s presence, following the Lord’s instructions.
26 Moses put the gold altar in the tent of meeting in front of the canopy. 27 He burned sweet-smelling incense on it, following the Lord’s instructions. 28 Then he put up the screen at the entrance to the tent.
29 He put the altar for burnt offerings at the entrance to the tent (the tent of meeting). He sacrificed burnt offerings and grain offerings on it. Moses followed the Lord’s instructions.
30 He put the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing. 31 Moses, Aaron, and his sons used this water to wash their hands and feet. 32 They would wash whenever they went into the tent of meeting or whenever they approached the altar. Moses followed the Lord’s instructions.
33 He set up the courtyard around the tent and the altar and put up the screen at the entrance to the courtyard. Finally, Moses finished the work.
The Lord Comes to the Tent
34 Then the ⌞column of⌟ smoke covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tent. 35 Moses couldn’t go into the tent of meeting, because the smoke settled on it and the glory of the Lord filled the tent.
36 In all their travels, whenever the ⌞column of⌟ smoke moved from the tent, the Israelites would break camp. 37 But if the column didn’t move, they wouldn’t break camp. 38 So the Lord’s column stayed over the tent during the day, and there was fire in the smoke at night. In this way all the Israelites could see the column throughout their travels.
Exodus 40
King James Version
40 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 On the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
3 And thou shalt put therein the ark of the testimony, and cover the ark with the vail.
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 candlestick, and light the lamps thereof.
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 And thou shalt set the altar of the burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
7 And thou shalt set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and shalt put water therein.
8 And 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 therein, and shalt hallow it, and all the vessels thereof: and it shall be holy.
10 And thou shalt anoint the altar of the burnt offering, and all his vessels, and sanctify the altar: and it shall be an altar most holy.
11 And thou shalt anoint the laver and his foot, and sanctify it.
12 And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water.
13 And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments, and anoint him, and sanctify him; that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
14 And thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe them with coats:
15 And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint their father, that they may minister unto me in the priest's office: for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting 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 reared up.
18 And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and fastened his sockets, and set up the boards thereof, and put in the bars thereof, and reared up his pillars.
19 And he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above upon it; as the Lord commanded Moses.
20 And he took and put the testimony into the ark, and set the staves on the ark, and put the mercy seat above upon the ark:
21 And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the vail of the covering, and covered the ark of the testimony; as the Lord commanded Moses.
22 And he put the table in the tent of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without the vail.
23 And he set the bread in order upon it before the Lord; as the Lord had commanded Moses.
24 And he put the candlestick in the tent of the congregation, over against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.
25 And he lighted the lamps before the Lord; as the Lord commanded Moses.
26 And he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation before the vail:
27 And he burnt sweet incense thereon; as the Lord commanded Moses.
28 And 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 tent of the congregation, and offered upon it the burnt offering and the meat offering; as the Lord commanded Moses.
30 And he set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and put water there, to wash withal.
31 And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet thereat:
32 When they went into the tent of the congregation, and when they came near unto the altar, they washed; as the Lord commanded Moses.
33 And he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the hanging of the court gate. So Moses finished the work.
34 Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
35 And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation, because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
36 And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their journeys:
37 But if the cloud were not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up.
38 For the cloud of the Lord was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
