New Living Translation (NLT)

Exodus 40
³⁰ Next Moses placed the washbasin between the Tabernacle and the altar. He filled it with water so the priests could wash themselves.
³¹ Moses and Aaron and Aaron’s sons used water from it to wash their hands and feet.
³² Whenever they approached the altar and entered the Tabernacle, they washed themselves, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
³³ Then he hung the curtains forming the courtyard around the Tabernacle and the altar. And he set up the curtain at the entrance of the courtyard. So at last Moses finished the work.
³⁴ Then the cloud covered the Tabernacle, and the glory of the LORD filled the Tabernacle.
³⁵ Moses could no longer enter the Tabernacle because the cloud had settled down over it, and the glory of the LORD filled the Tabernacle.
³⁶ Now whenever the cloud lifted from the Tabernacle, the people of Israel would set out on their journey, following it.
³⁷ But if the cloud did not rise, they remained where they were until it lifted.
³⁸ The cloud of the LORD hovered over the Tabernacle during the day, and at night fire glowed inside the cloud so the whole family of Israel could see it. This continued throughout all their journeys.
Leviticus 1
¹ The LORD called to Moses from the Tabernacle and said to him,
² “Give the following instructions to the people of Israel. When you present an animal as an offering to the LORD, you may take it from your herd of cattle or your flock of sheep and goats.
