Exodus 26

1 And you shall make the tabernacle, ten curtains of fine linen spun, and blue and purple, and scarlet spun [with] cherubs; you shall make them with work of a weaver.

'And thou dost make the tabernacle: ten curtains of twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet; [with] cherubs, work of a designer, thou dost make them;

2 The length of one curtain shall be eight and twenty cubits, and one curtain shall be the breadth of four cubits: there shall be the same measure to all the curtains.

the length of the one curtain [is] eight and twenty by the cubit, and the breadth of the one curtain four by the cubit, one measure [is] to all the curtains;

3 And the five curtains shall be joined one to another, and [the other] five curtains shall be closely connected the one with the other.

five of the curtains are joining one unto another, and five curtains are joining one to another.

4 And you shall make for them loops of blue on the edge of one curtain, on one side for the coupling, and so shall you make on the edge of the outer curtain for the second coupling.

'And thou hast made loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain, at the end in the joining; and so thou makest in the edge of the outermost curtain, in the joining of the second.

5 Fifty loops shall you make for one curtain, and fifty loops shall you make on the part of the curtain answering to the coupling of the second, opposite [each other], corresponding to each other at each point.

fifty loops thou dost make in the one curtain, and fifty loops thou dost make in the edge of the curtain which [is] in the joining of the second, causing the loops to take hold one unto another;

6 And you shall make fifty golden rings; and you shall join the curtains to each other with the rings, and it shall be one tabernacle.

and thou hast made fifty hooks of gold, and hast joined the curtains one to another by the hooks, and the tabernacle hath been one.

7 And you shall make for a covering of the tabernacle skins with the hair on, you shall make them eleven skins.

'And thou hast made curtains of goats' [hair], for a tent over the tabernacle; thou dost make eleven curtains:

8 The length of one skin thirty cubits, and the breadth of one skin four cubits: there shall be the same measure to the eleven skins.

the length of the one curtain [is] thirty by the cubit, and the breadth of the one curtain four by the cubit; one measure [is] to the eleven curtains;

9 And you shall join the five skins together, and the six skins together; and you shall double the sixth skin in front of the tabernacle.

and thou hast joined the five curtains apart, and the six curtains apart, and hast doubled the six curtains over-against the front of the tent.

10 And you shall make fifty loops on the border of one skin, which is in the midst for the joinings; and you shall make fifty loops on the edge of the second skin that joins it.

'And thou hast made fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain, the outermost in the joining, and fifty loops on the edge of the curtain which is joining the second;

11 And you shall make fifty brazen rings; and you shall join the rings by the loops, and you shall join the skins, and they shall be one.

and thou hast made fifty hooks of brass, and hast brought in the hooks into the loops, and hast joined the tent, and it hath been one.

12 And you shall fix at the end that which is over in the skins of the tabernacle; the half of the skin that is left shall you fold over, according to the overplus of the skins of the tabernacle; you shall fold it over behind the tabernacle.

'And the superfluity in the curtains of the tent — the half of the curtain which is superfluous — hath spread over the hinder part of the tabernacle;

13 A cubit on this side, and a cubit on that side of that which remains of the skins, of the length of the skins of the tabernacle: it shall be folding over the sides of the tabernacle on this side and that side, that it may cover it.

and the cubit on this side, and the cubit on that, in the superfluity in the length of the curtains of the tent, is spread out over the sides of the tabernacle, on this and on that, to cover it;

14 And you shall make for a covering of the tabernacle rams' skins dyed red, and blue skins as coverings above.

and thou hast made a covering for the tent, of rams' skins made red, and a covering of badgers' skins above.

15 And you shall make the posts of the tabernacle of incorruptible wood.

'And thou hast made the boards for the tabernacle, of shittim wood, standing up;

16 Of ten cubits shall you make one post, and the breadth of one post of a cubit and a half.

ten cubits [is] the length of the board, and a cubit and a half the breadth of the one board;

17 Two joints shall you make in one post, answering the one to the other: so shall you do to all the posts of the tabernacle.

two handles [are] to the one board, joined one unto another; so thou dost make for all the boards of the tabernacle;

18 And you shall make posts to the tabernacle, twenty posts on the north side.

and thou hast made the boards of the tabernacle: twenty boards for the south side southward;

19 And you shall make to the twenty posts forty silver sockets; two sockets to one post on both its sides, and two sockets to the other post on both its sides.

and forty sockets of silver thou dost make under the twenty boards, two sockets under the one board for its two handles, and two sockets under the other board for its two handles.

20 And for the next side, towards the south, twenty posts,

'And for the second side of the tabernacle, for the north side, [are] twenty boards,

21 and their forty silver sockets: two sockets to one post on both its sides, and two sockets to the other post on both its sides.

and their forty sockets of silver, two sockets under the one board, and two sockets under another board.

22 And on the back of the tabernacle at the part which is towards the [west] you shall make six posts.

And for the sides of the tabernacle westward, thou dost make six boards.

23 And you shall make two posts on the corners of the tabernacle behind.

And two boards thou dost make for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides.

24 And it shall be equal below, they shall be equal towards the same part from the heads to one joining; so shall you make to both the two corners, let them be equal.

And they are pairs beneath, and together they are pairs above its head unto the one ring; so is it for them both, they are for the two corners.

25 And there shall be eight posts, and their sixteen silver sockets; two sockets to one post on both its sides, and two sockets to the other post.

And they have been eight boards, and their sockets of silver [are] sixteen sockets, two sockets under the one board, and two sockets under another board.

26 And you shall make bars of incorruptible wood; five to one post on one side of the tabernacle,

'And thou hast made bars of shittim wood: five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,

27 and five bars to one post on the second side of the tabernacle, and five bars to the hinder posts, on the side of the tabernacle towards the sea.

and five bars for the boards of the second side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the side of the tabernacle at the two sides, westward;

28 And let the bar in the middle between the posts go through from the one side to the other side.

and one hath caused the middle bar in the midst of the boards to reach from end unto end;

29 And you shall gild the posts with gold; and you shall make golden rings, into which you shall introduce the bars, and you shall gild the bars with gold.

and the boards thou dost overlay [with] gold, and their rings thou dost make of gold places for bars, and hast overlaid their bars with gold;

30 And you shall set up the tabernacle according to the pattern showed you in the mount.

and thou hast raised up the tabernacle according to its fashion which thou hast been shewn in the mount.

31 And you shall make a veil of blue and purple and scarlet woven, and fine linen spun: you shall make it cherubs [in] woven work.

'And thou hast made a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen, work of a designer; he maketh it [with] cherubs;

32 And you shall set it upon four posts of incorruptible wood overlaid with gold; and their tops [shall be] gold, and their four sockets [shall be] of silver.

and thou hast put it on four pillars of shittim wood, overlaid [with] gold, their pegs [are] of gold, on four sockets of silver.

33 And you shall put the veil on the posts, and you shall carry in there within the veil the ark of the testimony; and the veil shall make a separation for you between the holy and the holy of holies.

'And thou hast put the vail under the hooks, and hast brought in thither within the vail the ark of the testimony; and the vail hath made a separation for you between the holy and the holy of holies.

34 And you shall screen with the veil the ark of the testimony in the holy of holies.

'And thou hast put the mercy-seat on the ark of the testimony, in the holy of holies.

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

'And thou hast set the table at the outside of the vail, and the candlestick over-against the table on the side of the tabernacle southward, and the table thou dost put on the north side.

36 And you shall make a screen for the door of the tabernacle of blue, and purple, and spun scarlet and fine linen spun, the work of the embroiderer.

'And thou hast made a covering for the opening of the tent, blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen, work of an embroiderer;

37 And you shall make for the veil five posts, and you shall gild them with gold; and their chapiters shall be gold; and you shall cast for them five brazen sockets.

and thou hast made for the covering five pillars of shittim [wood], and hast overlaid them [with] gold, their pegs [are] of gold, and thou hast cast for them five sockets of brass.
