Exo 40:31 From it Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet.
Exo 40:32 When they entered the tent of meeting, and when they approached the altar, they washed, just as the Lord had commanded Moses.
Exo 40:33 He erected the court all around the tabernacle and the altar, and hung up the veil for the gateway of the court. Thus Moses finished the work.
Exo 40:34 Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
Exo 40:35 Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
Exo 40:36 Throughout all their journeys whenever the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the sons of Israel would set out;
Exo 40:37 but if the cloud was not taken up, then they did not set out until the day when it was taken up.
Exo 40:38 For throughout all their journeys, the cloud of the Lord was on the tabernacle by day, and there was fire in it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel.
