34

Then the cloud came down covering the Tent of meeting, and the House was full of the glory of the Lord;

35

So that Moses was not able to go into the Tent of meeting, because the cloud was resting on it, and the House was full of the glory of the Lord.

36

And whenever the cloud was taken up from the House, the children of Israel went forward on their journey:

37

But while the cloud was there, they made no move till it was taken up.

38

For the cloud of the Lord was resting on the House by day, and at night there was fire in the cloud, before the eyes of all the people of Israel, and so it was through all their journeys.
