4You shall bring in the table, and set in order the things that are on it. You shall bring in the lampstand, and light the lamps of it.
5You shall set the golden altar for incense before the ark of the testimony, and put the screen of the door to the tent.
6You shall set the altar of burnt offering before the door of the tent of the tent of meeting.
7You shall set the basin between the tent of meeting and the altar, and shall put water therein.
8You shall set up the court around it, and hang up the screen of the gate of the court.
9You shall take the anointing oil, and anoint the tent, and all that is in it, and shall make it holy, and all its furniture: and it will be holy.
10You shall anoint the altar of burnt offering, with all its vessels, and sanctify the altar: and the altar will be most holy.
11You shall anoint the basin and its base, and sanctify it.
12You shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the tent of meeting, and shall wash them with water.
13You shall put on Aaron the holy garments; and you shall anoint him, and sanctify him, that he may minister to me in the priest`s office.
14You shall bring his sons, and put coats on them.
15You shall anoint them, as you anointed their father, that they may minister to me in the priest`s office. Their anointing shall be to them for an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.
