1 A nd the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

وَكَلَّمَ اللهُ مُوسَى فَقالَ:

2 O n the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.

«فِي اليَومِ الأوَّلِ مِنَ الشَّهرِ الأوَّلِ تُقيْمُ المَسْكَنِ المُقَدَّسَ.

3 A nd thou shalt put therein the ark of the testimony, and cover the ark with the vail.

ضَعْ فِيهِ صُندُوقَ لَوحَيِّ الشَّهادَةِ وَأخْفِهِ بِالسِّتارَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ.

4 A nd 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.

ثُمَّ أدْخِلْ المائِدَةَ وَرَتِّبْ خُبزَ حَضْرَةِ اللهِ عَلَيها، وَأحْضِرْ المَنارَةَ وَأشْعِلْ سُرُجَها.

5 A nd 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.

وَضَعْ مَذْبَحَ البَخُورِ الذَّهَبِيَّ أمامَ صُندُوقِ العَهْدِ، وَالسِّتارَةَ عَلَى مَدْخَلِ المَسْكَنِ.

6 A nd thou shalt set the altar of the burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.

«ضَعْ مَذْبَحَ الذَّبيحَةِ الصَّاعِدَةِ أمامَ مَدْخَلِ المَسْكَنِ، أي مَدْخَلِ خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ.

7 A nd thou shalt set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and shalt put water therein.

وَضَعْ حَوضَ الاغتِسالِ بَينَ خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ وَالمَذبَحِ، مَملوءاً بِالماءِ.

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

ضَعْ سَتائِرَ السّاحَةِ حَولَ الخَيمَةِ، ثُمَّ ضَعْ سِتارَةَ مَدْخَلِ السّاحَةِ.

9 A nd 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.

وَخَذْ زَيتَ المَسحَةِ، وَامْسَحْ بِهِ المَسْكَنَ وَكُلَّ ما فِيهِ وَكُلَّ أثاثِهِ لِيَكُونَ مُخَصَّصاً للهِ.

10 A nd 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.

وَامْسَحْ مَذبَحَ الذَّبائِحِ الصّاعِدَةِ وَكُلَّ أدَواتِهِ، وَكَرِّسِ المَذبَحَ، فَيَصيْرَ قُدسَ أقداسٍ.

11 A nd thou shalt anoint the laver and his foot, and sanctify it.

وَامْسَحْ حَوضَ الاغتِسالِ وَقاعِدَتَهُ وَتُقَدِّسَهُ.

12 A nd thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water.

«ثُمَّ اسْتَدْعِ هارُونَ وَأبناءَهُ إلَى مَدْخَلِ خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ وَاغْسِلْهُمْ بِالماءِ.

13 A nd 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.

ألْبِسْ هارُونَ ثِياباً مُقَدَّسَةً، وَامْسَحْهُ وَكَرِّسْهُ لِيَخدِمَنِي كَكاهِنٍ لِي.

14 A nd thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe them with coats:

أحْضِرْ كَذَلِكَ أبْناءَهُ وَألبِسْهُمُ الثِّيابَ المُخَصَّصَةَ لَهُمْ.

15 a nd 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.

وَامْسَحْهُمْ كَما مَسَحتَ أباهُمْ لِيَخدِمُونِي كَكَهَنَةٍ لِي. فَسَتُؤَهِّلُهُمْ هَذِهِ المِسْحَةُ لِيَكونوا كَهَنَةً إلَى الأبَدِ فِي كُلِّ أجيالِهِمْ.»

16 T hus did Moses: according to all that the Lord commanded him, so did he.

فَعَمِلَ مُوسَى بِحَسَبِ ما أمَرَهُ اللهُ بِهِ.

17 A nd 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.

وَفِي اليَومِ الأوَّلِ مِنَ الشَّهرِ الأوَّلِ فِي السَّنَةِ الثّانِيَةِ، أُقيمَ المَسْكَنُ المُقَدَّسُ.

18 A nd 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.

أقامَ مُوسَى المَسْكَنَ وَوَضَعَ قَواعِدَهُ وَألواحَهُ وَعَوارِضَهُ وَأعمِدَتَهُ.

19 A nd he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above upon it; as the Lord commanded Moses.

وَنَشَرَ مُوسَى الخَيمَةَ فَوقَ المَسْكَنِ. ثُمَّ وَضَعَ فَوقَهُ غِطاءَ جُلُودِ الكِباشِ المَدبُوغَةِ وَغِطاءِ جُلُودِ التُّيُوسِ، كَما أمَرَ اللهُ مُوسَى.

20 A nd 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:

وَأخَذَ مُوسَى لَوحَيِّ الشَّهادَةِ وَوَضَعَهُما فِي الصُّندُوقِ. وَوَضَعَ العَصَوَينِ فِي حَلَقاتِ الصُّندُوقِ، وَوَضَعَ الغِطاءَ فَوقَ الصُّندُوقِ.

21 a nd 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.

وَأحضَرَ مُوسَى الصُّندُوقَ إلَى المَسْكَنِ، وَوَضَعَ السِّتارَةَ الدّاخِلِيَّةَ، وَأخْفَى صُندُوقَ لَوحَيِّ الشَّهادَةِ، كَما أمَرَ اللهُ مُوسَى.

22 A nd he put the table in the tent of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without the vail.

وَوَضَعَ مُوسَى المائِدَةَ فِي خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ عَلَى الجِهَةِ الشَّمالِيَّةِ مِنَ المَسْكَنِ، خارِجَ السِّتارَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ.

23 A nd he set the bread in order upon it before the Lord; as the Lord had commanded Moses.

وَرَتَّبَ عَلَيها الخُبزَ فِي حَضرَةِ اللهِ ، كَما أمَرَ اللهُ مُوسَى.

24 A nd he put the candlestick in the tent of the congregation, over against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.

وَوَضَعَ مُوسَى المَنارَةَ فِي خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ عَلَى الجِهَةِ الجَنُوبِيَّةِ مِنَ المَسْكَنِ مُقابِلَ المائِدَةِ.

25 A nd he lighted the lamps before the Lord; as the Lord commanded Moses.

وَوَضَعَ السُّرُجَ فِي حَضرَةِ اللهِ ، كَما أمَرَ اللهُ مُوسَى.

26 A nd he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation before the vail:

وَوَضَعَ المَذبَحَ الذَّهَبِيَّ فِي خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ أمامَ السِّتارَةِ الدّاخِلِيَّةِ.

27 a nd he burnt sweet incense thereon; as the Lord commanded Moses.

وَأحرَقَ بَخُوراً طَيِّباً، كَما أمَرَ اللهُ مُوسَى.

28 A nd he set up the hanging at the door of the tabernacle.

وَوَضَعَ السِّتارَةَ عَلَى مَدخَلِ المَسْكَنِ.

29 A nd 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.

وَوَضَعَ مَذبَحَ الذَّبائِحِ الصّاعِدَةِ عِندَ مَدخَلِ مَسْكَنِ خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ، وَقَدَّمَ عَلَيهِ الذَّبائِحَ الصّاعِدَةَ وَتَقدِماتِ الحُبُوبِ، كَما أمَرَ اللهُ مُوسَى.

30 A nd he set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the altar, and put water there, to wash withal.

وَوَضَعَ مُوسَى الحَوضَ بَينَ خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ وَالمَذبَحِ، وَوَضَعَ فِيهِ ماءً لِلاغْتِسالِ.

31 A nd Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet thereat:

وَكانَ مُوسَى وَهارُونُ وَأبناؤُهُ يَغسِلُونَ أيدِيَهِمْ وَأرجُلَهُمْ فِيهِ.

32 w hen they went into the tent of the congregation, and when they came near unto the altar, they washed; as the Lord commanded Moses.

فَحِينَ كانُوا يَأْتُونَ إلَى خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ وَيَقتَرِبُونَ إلَى المَذبَحِ، كانُوا يَغتَسِلُونَ كَما أمَرَ اللهُ مُوسَى.

33 A nd 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.

وَوَضَعَ مُوسَى سَتائِرَ السّاحَةِ حَولَ المَسْكَنِ وَالمَذبَحِ. وَوَضَعَ سِتارَةَ مَدْخَلِ السّاحَةِ. وَبِهَذا أكمَلَ مُوسَى كُلَّ العَمَلِ. مَجدُ الله

34 T hen a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.

وَغَطَّتِ السَّحابَةُ خَيمَةَ الاجْتِماعِ، وَمَلأ مَجدُ اللهِ المَسْكَنَ.

35 A nd 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.

وَلَمْ يَستَطِعْ مُوسَى الدُّخُولَ إلَى خَيمَةِ الاجْتِماعِ لِأنَّ مَجدَ اللهِ مَلأ المَسْكَنَ.

36 A nd when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their journeys:

وَفِي كُلِّ رِحلاتِ بَني إسْرائِيلَ، حِينَ كانَتِ السَّحابَةُ تَرتَفِعُ عَنِ المَسْكَنِ كانَ بَنو إسْرائِيلَ يَرتَحِلُونَ.

37 b ut if the cloud were not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up.

فَإنْ لَمْ تَرتَفِعِ السَّحابَةُ، لَمْ يَكُونُوا يَرتَحِلُونَ إلَى أنْ تَرتَفِعَ.

38 F or 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.

لِأنَّ سَحابَةَ اللهِ كانَتْ فَوقَ المَسْكَنِ فِي النَّهارِ. وَكانَتِ النّارُ فِي السَّحابَةِ طَوالَ اللَّيلِ أمامَ عُيونِ جَمِيعِ بَيتِ إسْرائِيلَ فِي كُلِّ رِحلاتِهِمْ.
