Sixth Aliyah



40:17
In the first month of the second year [of the Exodus], on the first of the month, the Tabernacle was erected.
Vayehi bachodesh harishon bashanah hashenit be’echad lachodesh hukam haMishkan.
וַיְהִי בַּחֹדֶשׁ הָרִאשׁוֹן, בַּשָּׁנָה הַשֵּׁנִית–בְּאֶחָד לַחֹדֶשׁ: הוּקַם, הַמִּשְׁכָּן.

40:18
Moses erected the Tabernacle. He [did this by] setting up the bases, placing the beams [in them], and [fastening them together] with the crossbars. He [then] set up the pillars.
Vayakem Moshe et-haMishkan vayiten et-adanav vayasem et-krashav vayiten et-brichav vayakem et-amudav.
וַיָּקֶם מֹשֶׁה אֶת-הַמִּשְׁכָּן, וַיִּתֵּן אֶת-אֲדָנָיו, וַיָּשֶׂם אֶת-קְרָשָׁיו, וַיִּתֵּן אֶת-בְּרִיחָיו; וַיָּקֶם, אֶת-עַמּוּדָיו.

40:19
He spread the tent over the tabernacle, and placed the tent’s roof over it. [It was all done] as God had commanded Moses.
Vayifrosh et-ha’ohel al-haMishkan vayasem et-michseh ha’ohel alav milemalah ka’asher tsivah Adonay et-Moshe.
וַיִּפְרֹשׂ אֶת-הָאֹהֶל, עַל-הַמִּשְׁכָּן, וַיָּשֶׂם אֶת-מִכְסֵה הָאֹהֶל עָלָיו, מִלְמָעְלָה–כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוָּה יְהוָה, אֶת-מֹשֶׁה.

40:20
He took the [Tablets of] Testimony and placed them in the Ark. He then placed the carrying poles in the ark, and set the cover on top of the ark.
Vayikach vayiten et-ha’edut el-ha’aron vayasem et-habadim al-ha’aron vayiten et-hakaporet al-ha’aron milemalah.
וַיִּקַּח וַיִּתֵּן אֶת-הָעֵדֻת, אֶל-הָאָרֹן, וַיָּשֶׂם אֶת-הַבַּדִּים, עַל-הָאָרֹן; וַיִּתֵּן אֶת-הַכַּפֹּרֶת עַל-הָאָרֹן, מִלְמָעְלָה.

40:21
He brought the ark into the Tabernacle, and set up the cloth partition so that it would shield the Ark of Testimony. [It was all done] as God had commanded Moses.
Vayave et-ha’aron el-haMishkan vayasem et parochet hamasach vayasech al Aron ha’Edut ka’asher tsivah Adonay et-Moshe.
וַיָּבֵא אֶת-הָאָרֹן, אֶל-הַמִּשְׁכָּן, וַיָּשֶׂם אֵת פָּרֹכֶת הַמָּסָךְ, וַיָּסֶךְ עַל אֲרוֹן הָעֵדוּת–כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוָּה יְהוָה, אֶת-מֹשֶׁה.

40:22
He placed the table in the Communion Tent, outside the cloth partition, on the north side of the Tabernacle.
Vayiten et-hashulchan be’Ohel Mo’ed al-yerech haMishkan tsafonah michuts laparochet.
וַיִּתֵּן אֶת-הַשֻּׁלְחָן בְּאֹהֶל מוֹעֵד, עַל יֶרֶךְ הַמִּשְׁכָּן צָפֹנָה, מִחוּץ, לַפָּרֹכֶת.

40:23
Then he placed the prescribed arrangement of bread on it before God. [It was all done] as God had commanded Moses.
Vaya’aroch alav erech lechem lifney Adonay ka’asher tsivah Adonay et-Moshe.
וַיַּעֲרֹךְ עָלָיו עֵרֶךְ לֶחֶם, לִפְנֵי יְהוָה–כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוָּה יְהוָה, אֶת-מֹשֶׁה.

40:24
He placed the menorah in the Communion Tent directly across from the table, on the southern side of the Tabernacle.
Vayasem et-hamenorah be’Ohel Mo’ed nochach hashulchan al-yerech haMishkan negbah.
וַיָּשֶׂם אֶת-הַמְּנֹרָה בְּאֹהֶל מוֹעֵד, נֹכַח הַשֻּׁלְחָן, עַל יֶרֶךְ הַמִּשְׁכָּן, נֶגְבָּה.

40:25
He then lit the lamps before God. [It was all done] as God had commanded Moses.
Vaya’al hanerot lifney Adonay ka’asher tsivah Adonay et-Moshe.
וַיַּעַל הַנֵּרֹת, לִפְנֵי יְהוָה–כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוָּה יְהוָה, אֶת-מֹשֶׁה.

40:26
He placed the golden altar in the Communion Tent in front of the cloth partition.
Vayasem et-mizbach hazahav be’Ohel Mo’ed lifney haparochet.
וַיָּשֶׂם אֶת-מִזְבַּח הַזָּהָב, בְּאֹהֶל מוֹעֵד, לִפְנֵי, הַפָּרֹכֶת.

40:27
Then he burned perfume incense on it. [It was all done] as God had commanded Moses.
Vayakter alav ketoret samim ka’asher tsivah Adonay et-Moshe.
וַיַּקְטֵר עָלָיו, קְטֹרֶת סַמִּים–כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוָּה יְהוָה, אֶת-מֹשֶׁה.
