They made the tunics of finely woven linen for Aaron and his sons,

the pure gold lampstand, with its arrangement of lamps and all its utensils, and the oil for the light;

and the gold altar, and the anointing oil and the fragrant incense, and the veil for the doorway of the tent;

the hangings for the court, its pillars and its sockets, and the screen for the gate of the court, its cords and its pegs and all the equipment for the service of the tabernacle, for the tent of meeting;

the woven garments for ministering in the holy place and the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons, to minister as priests.

"Moreover, you shall set the gold altar of incense before the ark of the testimony, and set up the veil for the doorway to the tabernacle.

"You shall set up the court all around and hang up the veil for the gateway of the court.

and you shall anoint them even as you have anointed their father, that they may minister as priests to Me; and their anointing will qualify them for a perpetual priesthood throughout their generations."

He brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up a veil for the screen, and screened off the ark of the testimony, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

Then he set up the veil for the doorway of the tabernacle.

He placed the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar and put water in it for washing.

'He shall lay his hand on the head of the burnt offering, that it may be accepted for him to make atonement on his behalf.

'Its entrails, however, and its legs he shall wash with water. And the priest shall offer up in smoke all of it on the altar for a burnt offering, an offering by fire of a soothing aroma to the LORD.

'But if his offering is from the flock, of the sheep or of the goats, for a burnt offering, he shall offer it a male without defect.

'No grain offering, which you bring to the LORD, shall be made with leaven, for you shall not offer up in smoke any leaven or any honey as an offering by fire to the LORD.

'As an offering of first fruits you shall bring them to the LORD, but they shall not ascend for a soothing aroma on the altar.

'Also if you bring a grain offering of early ripened things to the LORD, you shall bring fresh heads of grain roasted in the fire, grits of new growth, for the grain offering of your early ripened things.
