    Bible Reading for January 31

    Exodus Chapter 39

    1 And of the blue, and purple, and scarlet, they made cloths of service,
    to do service in the holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron;
    as the LORD commanded Moses.

    2 And he made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.

    3 And they did beat the gold into thin plates, and cut it into wires, to
    work it in the blue, and in the purple, and in the scarlet, and in the
    fine linen, with cunning work.

    4 They made shoulderpieces for it, to couple it together: by the two
    edges was it coupled together.

    5 And the curious girdle of his ephod, that was upon it, was of the
    same, according to the work thereof; of gold, blue, and purple, and
    scarlet, and fine twined linen; as the LORD commanded Moses.

    6 And they wrought onyx stones inclosed in ouches of gold, graven, as
    signets are graven, with the names of the children of Israel.

    7 And he put them on the shoulders of the ephod, that they should be
    stones for a memorial to the children of Israel; as the LORD commanded
    Moses.

    8 And he made the breastplate of cunning work, like the work of the
    ephod; of gold, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.

    9 It was foursquare; they made the breastplate double: a span was the
    length thereof, and a span the breadth thereof, being doubled.

    10 And they set in it four rows of stones: the first row was a sardius,
    a topaz, and a carbuncle: this was the first row.

    11 And the second row, an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.

    12 And the third row, a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.

    13 And the fourth row, a beryl, an onyx, and a jasper: they were
    inclosed in ouches of gold in their inclosings.

    14 And the stones were according to the names of the children of Israel, twelve, according to their names, like the engravings of a signet, every
    one with his name, according to the twelve tribes.

    15 And they made upon the breastplate chains at the ends, of wreathen
    work of pure gold.

    16 And they made two ouches of gold, and two gold rings; and put the two
    rings in the two ends of the breastplate.

    17 And they put the two wreathen chains of gold in the two rings on the
    ends of the breastplate.

    18 And the two ends of the two wreathen chains they fastened in the two ouches, and put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod, before it.

    19 And they made two rings of gold, and put them on the two ends of the breastplate, upon the border of it, which was on the side of the ephod
    inward.

    20 And they made two other golden rings, and put them on the two sides
    of the ephod underneath, toward the forepart of it, over against the
    other coupling thereof, above the curious girdle of the ephod.

    21 And they did bind the breastplate by his rings unto the rings of the
    ephod with a lace of blue, that it might be above the curious girdle of
    the ephod, and that the breastplate might not be loosed from the ephod;
    as the LORD commanded Moses.

    22 And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all of blue.

    23 And there was an hole in the midst of the robe, as the hole of an habergeon, with a band round about the hole, that it should not rend.

    24 And they made upon the hems of the robe pomegranates of blue, and
    purple, and scarlet, and twined linen.

    25 And they made bells of pure gold, and put the bells between the pomegranates upon the hem of the robe, round about between the pomegranates;

    26 A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, round about the
    hem of the robe to minister in; as the LORD commanded Moses.

    27 And they made coats of fine linen of woven work for Aaron, and for
    his sons,

    28 And a mitre of fine linen, and goodly bonnets of fine linen, and
    linen breeches of fine twined linen,

    29 And a girdle of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet,
    of needlework; as the LORD commanded Moses.

    30 And they made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold, and wrote
    upon it a writing, like to the engravings of a signet, HOLINESS TO THE LORD.

    31 And they tied unto it a lace of blue, to fasten it on high upon the
    mitre; as the LORD commanded Moses.

    32 Thus was all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of the
    congregation finished: and the children of Israel did according to all
    that the LORD commanded Moses, so did they.

    33 And they brought the tabernacle unto Moses, the tent, and all his furniture, his taches, his boards, his bars, and his pillars, and his
    sockets,

    34 And the covering of rams' skins dyed red, and the covering of
    badgers' skins, and the vail of the covering,

    35 The ark of the testimony, and the staves thereof, and the mercy seat,

    36 The table, and all the vessels thereof, and the shewbread,

    37 The pure candlestick, with the lamps thereof, even with the lamps to
    be set in order, and all the vessels thereof, and the oil for light,

    38 And the golden altar, and the anointing oil, and the sweet incense,
    and the hanging for the tabernacle door,

    39 The brasen altar, and his grate of brass, his staves, and all his
    vessels, the laver and his foot,

    40 The hangings of the court, his pillars, and his sockets, and the
    hanging for the court gate, his cords, and his pins, and all the vessels
    of the service of the tabernacle, for the tent of the congregation,

    41 The cloths of service to do service in the holy place, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and his sons' garments, to minister in
    the priest's office.

    42 According to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so the children of
    Israel made all the work.

    43 And Moses did look upon all the work, and, behold, they had done it
    as the LORD had commanded, even so had they done it: and Moses blessed them.

    Exodus Chapter 40

    1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

    2 On the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the tabernacle
    of the tent of the congregation.

    3 And thou shalt put therein the ark of the testimony, and cover the ark
    with the vail.

    4 And thou shalt bring in the table, and set in order the things that
    are to be set in order upon it; and thou shalt bring in the candlestick,
    and light the lamps thereof.

    5 And thou shalt set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of
    the testimony, and put the hanging of the door to the tabernacle.

    6 And thou shalt set the altar of the burnt offering before the door of
    the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.

    7 And thou shalt set the laver between the tent of the congregation and
    the altar, and shalt put water therein.

    8 And thou shalt set up the court round about, and hang up the hanging
    at the court gate.

    9 And thou shalt take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and
    all that is therein, and shalt hallow it, and all the vessels thereof:
    and it shall be holy.

    10 And thou shalt anoint the altar of the burnt offering, and all his
    vessels, and sanctify the altar: and it shall be an altar most holy.

    11 And thou shalt anoint the laver and his foot, and sanctify it.

    12 And thou shalt bring Aaron and his sons unto the door of the
    tabernacle of the congregation, and wash them with water.

    13 And thou shalt put upon Aaron the holy garments, and anoint him, and sanctify him; that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.

    14 And thou shalt bring his sons, and clothe them with coats:

    15 And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint their father, that
    they may minister unto me in the priest's office: for their anointing
    shall surely be an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.

    16 Thus did Moses: according to all that the LORD commanded him, so did he.

    17 And it came to pass in the first month in the second year, on the
    first day of the month, that the tabernacle was reared up.

    18 And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and fastened his sockets, and set
    up the boards thereof, and put in the bars thereof, and reared up his
    pillars.

    19 And he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle, and put the
    covering of the tent above upon it; as the LORD commanded Moses.

    20 And he took and put the testimony into the ark, and set the staves on
    the ark, and put the mercy seat above upon the ark:

    21 And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the vail of
    the covering, and covered the ark of the testimony; as the LORD
    commanded Moses.

    22 And he put the table in the tent of the congregation, upon the side
    of the tabernacle northward, without the vail.

    23 And he set the bread in order upon it before the LORD; as the LORD
    had commanded Moses.

    24 And he put the candlestick in the tent of the congregation, over
    against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.

    25 And he lighted the lamps before the LORD; as the LORD commanded Moses.

    26 And he put the golden altar in the tent of the congregation before
    the vail:

    27 And he burnt sweet incense thereon; as the LORD commanded Moses.

    28 And he set up the hanging at the door of the tabernacle.

    29 And he put the altar of burnt offering by the door of the tabernacle
    of the tent of the congregation, and offered upon it the burnt offering
    and the meat offering; as the LORD commanded Moses.

    30 And he set the laver between the tent of the congregation and the
    altar, and put water there, to wash withal.

    31 And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet
    thereat:

    32 When they went into the tent of the congregation, and when they came
    near unto the altar, they washed; as the LORD commanded Moses.

    33 And he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar,
    and set up the hanging of the court gate. So Moses finished the work.

    34 Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of
    the LORD filled the tabernacle.

    35 And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation,
    because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.

    36 And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the
    children of Israel went onward in all their journeys:

    37 But if the cloud were not taken up, then they journeyed not till the
    day that it was taken up.

    38 For the cloud of the LORD was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire
    was on it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout
    all their journeys.
