1 “Moreover you shall make the tabernacle with
ten curtains; of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, with
cherubim. The work of the skillful workman you shall make them. 2 The
length of each curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits, and the width of each
curtain four cubits: all the curtains shall have one measure. 3 Five
curtains shall be coupled together to one another; and the other five curtains
shall be coupled to one another. 4 You shall make loops of blue on the
edge of the one curtain from the edge in the coupling; and likewise you shall
make in the edge of the curtain that is outermost in the second coupling. 5 You
shall make fifty loops in the one curtain, and you shall make fifty loops in
the edge of the curtain that is in the second coupling. The loops shall be
opposite to one another. 6 You shall make fifty clasps of gold, and couple
the curtains to one another with the clasps: and the tabernacle shall be a
unit.
7 “You shall make curtains of goats’ hair for a
covering over the tabernacle. You shall make them eleven curtains. 8 The
length of each curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the width of each curtain
four cubits: the eleven curtains shall have one measure. 9 You shall
couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and shall
double over the sixth curtain in the forefront of the tent. 10 You shall
make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain that is outermost in the
coupling, and fifty loops on the edge of the curtain which is outermost in the
second coupling. 11 You shall make fifty clasps of brass, and put the
clasps into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one. 12 The
overhanging part that remains of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain
that remains, shall hang over the back of the tabernacle. 13 The cubit on
the one side, and the cubit on the other side, of that which remains in the
length of the curtains of the tent, shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle
on this side and on that side, to cover it. 14 You shall make a covering
for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering of sea cow hides above.
15 “You shall make the boards for the tabernacle
of acacia wood, standing up. 16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board,
and one and a half cubits the width of each board. 17 There shall be two
tenons in each board, joined to one another: thus you shall make for all the
boards of the tabernacle. 18 You shall make the boards for the tabernacle,
twenty boards for the south side southward. 19 You shall make forty
sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for its
two tenons, and two sockets under another board for its two tenons. 20 For
the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, twenty boards, 21 and
their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets
under another board. 22 For the far part of the tabernacle westward you
shall make six boards. 23 You shall make two boards for the corners of the
tabernacle in the far part. 24 They shall be double beneath, and in the
same way they shall be whole to its top to one ring: thus shall it be for them
both; they shall be for the two corners. 25 There shall be eight boards,
and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; two sockets under one board, and
two sockets under another board.
26 “You shall make bars of acacia wood: five for
the boards of the one side of the tabernacle, 27 and five bars for the
boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the
side of the tabernacle, for the far part westward. 28 The middle bar in
the middle of the boards shall pass through from end to end. 29 You shall
overlay the boards with gold, and make their rings of gold for places for the
bars: and you shall overlay the bars with gold. 30 You shall set up the
tabernacle according to the way that it was shown to you on the mountain.
31 “You shall make a veil of blue, and purple,
and scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cherubim. The work of the skillful
workman shall it be made. 32 You shall hang it on four pillars of acacia
overlaid with gold; their hooks shall be of gold, on four sockets of silver. 33 You
shall hang up the veil under the clasps, and shall bring the ark of the
testimony in there within the veil: and the veil shall separate the holy place
from the most holy for you. 34 You shall put the mercy seat on the ark of
the testimony in the most holy place. 35 You shall set the table outside
the veil, and the lamp stand over against the table on the side of the
tabernacle toward the south: and you shall put the table on the north side.
36 “You shall make a screen for the door of the
Tent, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the
embroiderer. 37 You shall make for the screen five pillars of acacia, and
overlay them with gold: their hooks shall be of gold: and you shall cast five
sockets of brass for them.
