1 Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten
curtains of fine
twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with cherubims
of cunning work shalt thou make them.
2 The
length of one curtain shall be eight and twenty cubits, and the
breadth of one curtain four cubits: and every one of the curtains shall have
one measure.
3 The
five curtains shall be coupled together one to another; and other five
curtains shall be coupled
one to another.
4 And
thou shalt make loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain from the
selvedge in the coupling; and likewise shalt thou make in the uttermost edge of another curtain,
in the coupling of the second.
5 Fifty
loops shalt thou make in the one curtain, and fifty loops shalt thou make in
the edge of the curtain that is in the coupling of the second; that
the loops may take hold one of another.
6 And
thou shalt make fifty taches of gold, and couple the curtains together with the
taches: and it shall be one tabernacle.
7 And
thou shalt make curtains of goats' hair to
be a covering upon the tabernacle: eleven curtains shalt thou make.
8 The
length of one curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the breadth of one
curtain four cubits: and the eleven curtains shall be all of one measure.
9 And
thou shalt couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves,
and shalt double the sixth curtain in the forefront of the tabernacle.
10 And
thou shalt make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain that is outmost
in the coupling, and fifty loops in the edge of the curtain which coupleth the
second.
11 And
thou shalt make fifty taches of brass, and put the taches into the loops, and
couple the tent together, that it may be one.
12 And
the remnant that remaineth of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that
remaineth, shall hang over the backside of the tabernacle.
13 And
a cubit on the one side, and a cubit on the other side of that which remaineth
in the length of the curtains of the tent, it shall hang over the sides of the
tabernacle on this side and on that side, to cover it.
14 And
thou shalt make a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering
above of badgers'
skins.
15 And
thou shalt make boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood standing up.
16 Ten
cubits shall be the
length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board.
17 Two
tenons shall there be in
one board, set in order one against another: thus shalt thou make for all the
boards of the tabernacle.
18 And
thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards on the south side
southward.
19 And
thou shalt make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets
under one board for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board for his
two tenons.
20 And
for the second side of the tabernacle on the north side there shall be twenty
boards:
21 And
their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board,
and two sockets under another board.
22 And
for the sides of the tabernacle westward thou shalt make six boards.
23 And
two boards shalt thou make for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides.
24 And
they shall be coupled together beneath, and they shall be coupled together
above the head of it unto one ring: thus shall it be for them both; they shall
be for the two corners.
25 And
they shall be eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; two sockets
under one board, and two sockets under another board.
26 And
thou shalt make bars of shittim 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 two sides westward.
28 And
the middle bar in the midst of the boards shall reach from end to end.
29 And
thou shalt overlay the boards with gold, and make their rings of gold for places
for the bars: and thou shalt overlay the bars with gold.
30 And
thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the fashion thereof which was
shewed thee in the mount.
31 And
thou shalt make a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and
fine twined linen of cunning work: with cherubims shall it be made:
32 And
thou shalt hang it upon four pillars of shittim wood overlaid
with gold: their hooks shall be of gold, upon the four sockets of silver.
33 And
thou shalt hang up the vail under the taches, that thou mayest bring in thither
within the vail the ark of the testimony: and the vail shall divide unto you
between the holy place and the most holy.
34 And
thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy place.
35 And
thou shalt set the table without the vail, and the candlestick over against the
table on the side of the tabernacle toward the south: and thou shalt put the
table on the north side.
36 And
thou shalt make an hanging for the door of the tent, of blue,
and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, wrought with needlework.
37 And
thou shalt make for the hanging five pillars of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, and their
hooks shall be of gold:
and thou shalt cast five sockets of brass for them.
