¹Moreover, you shall make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet yarns; you shall make them with cherubim skillfully worked into them .

²The length of each curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits , and the breadth of each curtain four cubits ; all the curtains shall be the same size .

³Five curtains shall be coupled to one another , and the other five curtains shall be coupled to one another .

⁴And you shall make loops of blue on the edge of the outermost curtain in the first set . Likewise you shall make loops on the edge of the outermost curtain in the second set .

⁵Fifty loops you shall make on the one curtain , and fifty loops you shall make on the edge of the curtain that is in the second set ; the loops shall be opposite one another .

⁶And you shall make fifty clasps of gold , and couple the curtains one to the other with the clasps , so that the tabernacle may be a single whole .

⁷You shall also make curtains of goats’ hair for a tent over the tabernacle ; eleven curtains shall you make .

⁸The length of each curtain shall be thirty cubits , and the breadth of each curtain four cubits . The eleven curtains shall be the same size .

⁹You shall couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and the sixth curtain you shall double over at the front of the tent .

¹⁰You shall make fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that is outermost in one set , and fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that is outermost in the second set .

¹¹You shall make fifty clasps of bronze , and put the clasps into the loops , and couple the tent together that it may be a single whole .

¹²And the part that remains of the curtains of the tent , the half curtain that remains , shall hang over the back of the tabernacle .

¹³And the extra that remains in the length of the curtains , the cubit on the one side , and the cubit on the other side, shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle , on this side and that side, to cover it.

¹⁴And you shall make for the tent a covering of tanned rams ’ skins and a covering of goatskins on top .

¹⁵You shall make upright frames for the tabernacle of acacia wood .

¹⁶Ten cubits shall be the length of a frame , and a cubit and a half the breadth of each frame .

¹⁷There shall be two tenons in each frame , for fitting together . So shall you do for all the frames of the tabernacle .

¹⁸You shall make the frames for the tabernacle : twenty frames for the south side ;

¹⁹and forty bases of silver you shall make under the twenty frames , two bases under one frame for its two tenons , and two bases under the next frame for its two tenons ;

²⁰and for the second side of the tabernacle , on the north side twenty frames ,

²¹and their forty bases of silver , two bases under one frame , and two bases under the next frame .

²²And for the rear of the tabernacle westward you shall make six frames .

²³And you shall make two frames for corners of the tabernacle in the rear ;

²⁴they shall be separate beneath , but joined at the top , at the first ring . Thus shall it be with both of them; they shall form the two corners .

²⁵And there shall be eight frames , with their bases of silver , sixteen bases ; two bases under one frame , and two bases under another frame .

²⁶You shall make bars of acacia wood , five for the frames of the one side of the tabernacle ,

²⁷and five bars for the frames of the other side of the tabernacle , and five bars for the frames of the side of the tabernacle at the rear westward .

²⁸The middle bar , halfway up the frames , shall run from end to end .

²⁹You shall overlay the frames with gold and shall make their rings of gold for holders for the bars , and you shall overlay the bars with gold .

³⁰Then you shall erect the tabernacle according to the plan for it that you were shown on the mountain .

³¹And you shall make a veil of blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen . It shall be made with cherubim skillfully worked into it .

³²And you shall hang it on four pillars of acacia overlaid with gold , with hooks of gold , on four bases of silver .

³³And you shall hang the veil from the clasps , and bring the ark of the testimony in there within the veil . And the veil shall separate for you the Holy Place from the Most Holy .

³⁴You shall put the mercy seat on the ark of the testimony in the Most Holy Place.

³⁵And you shall set the table outside the veil , and the lampstand on the south side of the tabernacle opposite the table , and you shall put the table on the north side .

³⁶You shall make a screen for the entrance of the tent , of blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen , embroidered with needlework .

³⁷And 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 bases of bronze for them.
