Exodus 26

1 Moreover thou shall make the tabernacle with ten curtains, of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, with cherubim the work of the skilful workman shall thou make them.

2 The length of each curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits. All the curtains shall have one measure.

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

4 And thou shall make loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain from the selvedge in the coupling, and likewise thou shall make in the edge of the curtain that is outmost in the second coupling.

5 Fifty loops thou shall make in the one curtain, and fifty loops thou shall make in the edge of the curtain that is in the second coupling; the loops shall be opposite one to another.

6 And thou shall make fifty clasps of gold, and couple the curtains one to another with the clasps. And the tabernacle shall be one whole.

7 And thou shall make curtains of goats' hair for a tent over the tabernacle. Eleven curtains thou shall make them.

8 The length of each curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits. The eleven curtains shall have one measure.

9 And thou 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 And thou shall make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain that is outmost in the coupling, and fifty loops upon the edge of the curtain which is outmost in the second coupling.

11 And thou shall make fifty clasps of brass, and put the clasps into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one.

12 And 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 And 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 And thou shall make a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering of certain skins above.

15 And thou shall make the boards for the tabernacle of acacia wood, standing up.

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

17 There shall be two tenons in each board, joined one to another. Thus thou shall make for all the boards of the tabernacle.

18 And thou shall make the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards for the south side southward.

19 And thou 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 And 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 And for the hinder part of the tabernacle westward thou shall make six boards.

23 And thou shall make two boards for the corners of the tabernacle in the hinder part.

24 And they shall be double beneath, and in like manner they shall be entire to the top of it to one ring. Thus shall it be for them both, they shall be for the two corners.

25 And there 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 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 hinder part westward.

28 And the middle bar in the midst of the boards shall pass through from end to end.

29 And thou shall overlay the boards with gold, and make their rings of gold for places for the bars. And thou shall overlay the bars with gold.

30 And thou shall raise up the tabernacle according to the fashion of it which has been shown thee on the mount.

31 And thou shall make a veil of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen. With cherubim the work of the skilful workman shall it be made.

32 And thou shall hang it upon four pillars of acacia overlaid with gold, their hooks shall be of gold, upon four sockets of silver.

33 And thou shall hang up the veil under the clasps, and shall bring in there within the veil the ark of the testimony. And the veil shall separate to you between the holy place and the most holy.

34 And thou shall put the mercy-seat upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy place.

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

36 And thou 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 And thou shall make for the screen five pillars of acacia, and overlay them with gold. Their hooks shall be of gold, and thou shall cast five sockets of brass for them.
