1 And the Lorde spake vnto Moses saynge:

2 In the first daye of the first moneth shalt thou sett vp the habitacio of the tabernacle of witnesse,

3 ad put theri the arcke of witnesse, and couer the arcke with the vayle,

4 ad brynge in the table and apparell it, and brynge in the candelsticke and put on his lampes,

5 and sett the censalter of golde before the arcke of witnesse, and put the hangynge of the dore vnto the habitacion.

6 And sett the burntoffrynge alter before the dore of the tabernacle of witnesse,

7 ad sett the lauer betwene the tabernacle of witnesse, ad the alter, ad put water theri,

8 and make the court roude aboute, ad set vp the hagynge of the courte gate.

9 And take the anoyntinge oyle and anoynt the habitacion and all that is there in, and halow it and all that belonge there to: that it maye be holye.

10 And anoynte the altar of the burntoffringes and all his vessels, and sanctifye the altar that it maye be most holye.

11 And anoynte also the lauer and his fote, and sanctifye it.

12 Than brynge Aaron and his sonnes vnto the dore of the tabernacle of witnesse, and wash them with water.

13 And put apon Aaron the holye vestmentes. and anoynte him and sanctifye him that he maye ministre vnto me,

14

15 that their anoyntige maie be an euerlastinge preasthode vnto the thorow out their generacions.

16 And Moses dyd acordige to all that the Lorde commaunded him.

17 Thus was the tabernacle reared vp the first moneth in the secode yere.

18 And Moses rered vp the tabernacle ad fastened his sokettes, ad set vp the bordes ad put in their barres, ad rered vp the pillers,

19 ad spred abrode the tet ouer the habitacio ad put the coueringe of the tent an hye aboue it: as the Lorde commaunded Moses.

20 And he toke ad put the testimonye in the arke ad sett the staues to the arcke and put the merciseate an hye apon the arcke,

21 and broughte the arcke in to the habitacio and hanged vp the vayle ad couered the arcke of witnesse, as the Lorde commaunded Moses.
