Exodus 38

¹He made the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood . Five cubits was its length , and five cubits its breadth . It was square , and three cubits was its height .

²He made horns for it on its four corners . Its horns were of one piece with it , and he overlaid it with bronze .

³And he made all the utensils of the altar , the pots , the shovels , the basins , the forks , and the fire pans . He made all its utensils of bronze .

⁴And he made for the altar a grating , a network of bronze , under its ledge , extending halfway down .

⁵He cast four rings on the four corners of the bronze grating as holders for the poles .

⁶He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze .

⁷And he put the poles through the rings on the sides of the altar to carry it with them. He made it hollow , with boards .

⁸He made the basin of bronze and its stand of bronze , from the mirrors of the ministering women who ministered in the entrance of the tent of meeting .

⁹And he made the court . For the south side the hangings of the court were of fine twined linen , a hundred cubits ;

¹⁰their twenty pillars and their twenty bases were of bronze , but the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver .

¹¹And for the north side there were hangings of a hundred cubits , their twenty pillars , their twenty bases were of bronze , but the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver .

¹²And for the west side were hangings of fifty cubits , their ten pillars , and their ten bases ; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver .

¹³And for the front to the east , fifty cubits .

¹⁴The hangings for one side of the gate were fifteen cubits , with their three pillars and three bases .

¹⁵And so for the other side . On both sides of the gate of the court were hangings of fifteen cubits , with their three pillars and their three bases .

¹⁶All the hangings around the court were of fine twined linen .

¹⁷And the bases for the pillars were of bronze , but the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver . The overlaying of their capitals was also of silver , and all the pillars of the court were filleted with silver .

¹⁸And the screen for the gate of the court was embroidered with needlework in blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen . It was twenty cubits long and five cubits high in its breadth , corresponding to the hangings of the court .

¹⁹And their pillars were four in number. Their four bases were of bronze , their hooks of silver , and the overlaying of their capitals and their fillets of silver .

²⁰And all the pegs for the tabernacle and for the court all around were of bronze .

²¹These are the records of the tabernacle , the tabernacle of the testimony , as they were recorded at the commandment of Moses , the responsibility of the Levites under the direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest .

²²Bezalel the son of Uri , son of Hur , of the tribe of Judah , made all that the Lord commanded Moses ;

²³and with him was Oholiab the son of Ahisamach , of the tribe of Dan , an engraver and designer and embroiderer in blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen .

²⁴All the gold that was used for the work , in all the construction of the sanctuary , the gold from the offering , was twenty-nine talents and 730 shekels , by the shekel of the sanctuary .

²⁵The silver from those of the congregation who were recorded was a hundred talents and 1,775 shekels , by the shekel of the sanctuary :

²⁶a beka a head (that is, half a shekel , by the shekel of the sanctuary ), for everyone who was listed in the records , from twenty years old and upward , for 603,550 men.

²⁷The hundred talents of silver were for casting the bases of the sanctuary and the bases of the veil ; a hundred bases for the hundred talents , a talent a base .

²⁸And of the 1,775 shekels he made hooks for the pillars and overlaid their capitals and made fillets for them.

²⁹The bronze that was offered was seventy talents and 2,400 shekels ;

³⁰with it he made the bases for the entrance of the tent of meeting , the bronze altar and the bronze grating for it and all the utensils of the altar ,

³¹the bases around the court , and the bases of the gate of the court , all the pegs of the tabernacle , and all the pegs around the court .
