Exodus 36:8-38
Read Exodus 36 in full →8aAnd all those 1wise at heart among those who were doing the work made the 2tabernacle with ten curtains; of fine twisted linen and 3blue and purple and scarlet material, with cherubim, the work of a skillful designer, 4Bezalel made them. 9The length of each curtain was 1twenty-eight cubits and the width of each curtain four 2cubits; all the curtains had 3the same measurements. 10He 1joined five curtains to one another, and the other five curtains he 2joined to one another. 11He made loops of 1blue on the edge of the 2outermost curtain in the first 3set; he did likewise on the edge of the curtain that was 4outermost in the second 5set. 12He made afifty loops in the one curtain, and he made fifty loops on the 1edge of the curtain that was in the second 2set; the loops were opposite each other. 13He made afifty clasps of gold and 1joined the curtains to one another with the clasps, so the tabernacle was one unit.
14Then ahe made curtains of goats’ hair for a tent over the tabernacle; he made eleven curtains 1in all. 15The length of each curtain was 1thirty cubits and four cubits the width of each curtain; the eleven curtains had 2the same measurements. 16He 1joined five curtains by themselves and the other six curtains by themselves. 17Moreover, he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was outermost in the first 1set, and he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was outermost in the second 2set. 18He made fifty clasps of 1bronze to 2join the tent together so that it would be 3a unit. 19He made a covering for the tent of rams’ skins 1dyed red and a covering of porpoise skins above.
20aThen he made the boards for the tabernacle of acacia wood, standing upright. 21Ten cubits was the length of 1each board and one and a half cubits the width of each board. 22There were two tenons for each board, 1fitted to one another; thus he did for all the boards of the tabernacle. 23And he made the boards for the tabernacle: twenty boards 1for the south side; 24and he made forty bases of silver under the twenty boards; two bases under one board for its two tenons and two bases under another board for its two tenons. 25Then for the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, he made twenty boards, 26and their forty bases of silver; two bases under one board and two bases under another board. 27For the 1rear of the tabernacle, to the west, he made six boards. 28And he made two boards for the corners of the 1tabernacle at the 2rear. 29And they were 1separated beneath, but were together at their completion at the 2top, 3at the first ring; thus he did with both of them for the two corners. 30And there were eight boards with their bases of silver, sixteen bases, two bases under every board.
31Then he made abars of acacia wood, five for the boards of one side of the tabernacle, 32and five bars for the boards of the 1other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the 2rear side to the west. 33And he made the middle bar to pass through in the 1center of the boards from end to end. 34He also overlaid the boards with gold and made their rings of gold as holders for the bars and overlaid the bars with gold.
35aMoreover, he made the veil of 1blue and purple and scarlet material and fine twisted linen; he made it with cherubim, the work of a skillful designer. 36And he made four pillars of acacia for it and overlaid them with gold, with their hooks of gold; and he cast four bases of silver for them. 37And he made a ascreen for the doorway of the tent, of 1blue and purple and scarlet material and fine twisted linen, the work of a 2weaver; 38and he made its afive pillars with their hooks, and he overlaid their tops and their 1bands with gold; but their five bases were of 2bronze.
