19 Cumque intulisset arcam in tabernaculum, appendit ante eam velum ut expleret Domini jussionem.	19 He spread the tent over the Dwel ing and the covering for the tent over that, as Yahweh had orderedMoses.
20 Posuit et mensam in tabernaculo testimonii ad plagam septentrionalem extra velum,	20 He took the Testimony and put it in the ark, positioned the shafts on the ark and put the mercy-seaton top of the ark.
21 ordinatis coram propositionis panibus, sicut præceperat Dominus Moysi.	21 He brought the ark into the Dwel ing and put the screening curtain in place, screening the ark of theTestimony, as Yahweh had ordered Moses.

31 Erexit et atrium per gyrum tabernaculi et altaris, ducto in introitu ejus tentorio. Postquam omnia perfecta sunt,	31 where Moses, Aaron and his sons washed their hands and feet,
32 operuit nubes tabernaculum testimonii, et gloria Domini implevit illud.	32 whenever they entered the Tent of Meeting or approached the altar they washed, as Yahweh hadordered Moses.
33 Nec poterat Moyses ingredi tectum f?deris, nube operiente omnia, et majestate Domini coruscante, quia cuncta nubes operuerat.	33 He then set up the court round the Dwel ing and the altar and set up the screen at the gate-way tothe court. Thus Moses completed the work.
34 Siquando nubes tabernaculum deserebat, proficiscebantur filii Israël per turmas suas :	34 The cloud then covered the Tent of Meeting and the glory of Yahweh fil ed the Dwel ing.
35 si pendebat desuper, manebant in eodem loco.	35 Moses could not enter the Tent of Meeting, since the cloud stayed over it and the glory of Yahwehfilled the Dwelling.
36 Nubes quippe Domini incubabat per diem tabernaculo, et ignis in nocte, videntibus cunctis populis Israël per cunctas mansiones suas.	36 At every stage of their journey, whenever the cloud rose from the Dwel ing, the Israelites wouldresume their march.
	37 If the cloud did not rise, they would not resume their march until the day it did rise.
