1 Then wrought Bezaleel, and Aholiab, and all cunning men, to whome the Lord gaue wisedome, and vnderstanding, to knowe howe to worke all maner worke for the seruice of the Sanctuarie, according to all that the Lord had commanded.
Therfor Beseleel, and Ooliab, and ech wijs man, to whiche the Lord yaf wisdom and vndurstondyng, that thei kouden worche crafteli, maden thingis that weren nedeful in to vsis of seyntuarie, and whiche the Lord comaundide to be maad.
2 For Moses had called Bezaleel, and Aholiab, and all the wise hearted men, in whose heartes the Lord had giuen wisedome, euen as many as their hearts encouraged to come vnto that worke to worke it.
And whanne Moises hadde clepid hem, and ech lerned man, to whom the Lord hadde youe wisdom and kunnyng, and whiche profriden hem bi her wille to make werk,
3 And they receiued of Moses all the offering which the children of Israel had brought for the worke of the seruice of the Sanctuary, to make it: also they brought still vnto him free giftes euery morning.
he bitook to hem alle the yiftis of the sones of Israel. And whanne thei weren bisi in the werk ech dai, the puple offride auowis eerli.
4 So all the wise men, that wrought all the holy worke, came euery man from his worke which they wrought,
Wherfor the werkmen weren compellid to come,
5 And spake to Moses, saying, The people bring too much, and more then ynough for the vse of the worke, which the Lord hath commanded to be made.
and thei seiden to Moises, The puple offrith more than is nedeful.
6 Then Moses gaue a commandement, and they caused it to be proclaymed throughout the hoste, saying, Let neither man nor woman prepare any more worke for the oblation of the Sanctuarie. So the people were stayed from offring.
Therfor Moises comaundide to be cried bi the vois of a criere, Nether man nether womman offre more ony thing in the werk of seyntuarie; and so it was ceessid fro yiftis to be offrid, for the thingis offrid sufficiden,
7 For the stuffe they had, was sufficient for all the worke to make it, and too much.
and weren ouer abundant.
8 All the cunning men therefore among the workemen, made for the Tabernacle ten curtaines of fine twined linnen, and of blewe silke, and purple, and skarlet: Cherubims of broydred worke made they vpon them.
And alle wise men in herte to fille the werk of the tabernacle maden ten curteyns of bijs foldid ayen, and of iacynct, and purpur, and of reed selk twies died, bi dyuerse werk, and bi the craft of many colouris.
9 The length of one curtaine was twentie and eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtaine foure cubites: and the curtaines were all of one cise.
Of whiche curteyns oon hadde in lengthe eiyte and twenti cubitis, and foure cubitis in breede; o mesure was of alle curteyns.
10 And he coupled fiue curtaines together, and other fiue coupled he together.
And he ioynede fyue curteyns oon to anothir, and he couplide othere fyue to hem silf to gidere;
11 And he made strings of blewe silke by the edge of one curtaine, in the seluedge of the coupling: likewise he made on the side of the other curtaine in the seluedge in the second coupling.
and he made handlis of iacynt in the hemme of o curteyn on euer either side,
12 Fiftie strings made he in the one curtaine, and fiftie strings made he in the edge of the other curtaine, which was in the second coupling: the strings were set one against another.
and in lijk maner in the hemme of the tother curteyn, that the handlis schulen comen to gidere ayens hem silf, and schulen be ioyned togider;
13 After, he made fiftie taches of golde, and coupled the curtaines one to another with the taches: so was it one Tabernacle.
wherfor he yettide also fifti goldun serclis, that schulen `bite the handlis of curteyns; and o tabernacle was maad.
14 Also he made curtaines of goates heare for the couering vpon the Tabernacle: he made them to the nomber of eleuen curtaines.
`He made also enleuene saies of the heeris of geet, to hile the roof of the tabernacle;
15 The length of one curtaine had thirtie cubites, and the bredth of one curtaine foure cubites: the eleuen curtaines were of one cise.
o saie hadde thretti cubitis in lengthe, foure cubitis in breede; alle the saies weren of o mesure;
16 And hee coupled fiue curtaines by themselues, and sixe curtaines by themselues:
of whiche saies he ioynede fyue bi hem silf, and sixe othere bi hem silf.
17 Also he made fiftie strings vpon the edge of one curtaine in the seluedge in the coupling, and fiftie strings made hee vpon the edge of the other curtaine in the second coupling.
And he made fifti handlis in the hemme of o say, and fifti in the hemme of the tother say, that tho schulden be ioyned to hem silf to gidere; and he made fifti bokelis of bras bi whiche
18 He made also fiftie taches of brasse to couple the couering that it might be one.
the roof was fastned to gidere, that oon hilyng were maad of alle the saies.
19 And he made a couering vpon the pauilion of rams skinnes dyed red, and a couering of badgers skinnes aboue.
He made also an hilyng of the tabernacle of the skynnes of rammes maad reed, and another veil aboue of skynnes of iacynt.
20 Likewise he made the boards for the Tabernacle, of Shittim wood to stand vp.
He made also stondynge tablis of the tabernacle of the trees of Sechym;
21 The length of a board was ten cubites, and the bredth of one board was a cubite, and an halfe.
the lengthe of o table was of ten cubitis, and the breede helde o cubit and an half.
22 One board had two tenons, set in order as the feete of a ladder, one against another: thus made he for all the boardes of the Tabernacle.
Twey dentyngis weren bi ech table, that the oon schulde be ioyned to the tother; so he made in al the tablis of the tabernacle.
23 So he made twentie boardes for the South side of the Tabernacle, euen full South.
Of whiche tablis twenti weren at the mydday coost ayens the south,
24 And fourtie sockets of siluer made he vnder the twentie boardes, two sockets vnder one board for his two tenons, and two sockets vnder another board for his two tenons.

And at the coost of the tabernacle that biholdith to the north he made twenti tablis,
26 And their fourtie sockets of siluer, two sockets vnder one board, and two sockets vnder another boarde.
with fourti foundementis of siluer, twei foundementis bi ech table.
27 Likewise toward the Westside of the Tabernacle he made sixe boardes.
Forsothe ayens the west he made sixe tablis,
28 And two boardes made he in the corners of the Tabernacle, for either side,
and tweyne othere tablis bi ech corner of the tabernacle bihinde,
29 And they were ioyned beneath, and likewise were made sure aboue with a ring: thus he did to both in both corners.
whiche weren ioyned fro bynethe til to aboue, and weren borun in to o ioynyng to gidere; so he made on euer either part bi the corneris,
30 So there were eight boards and their sixteene sockets of siluer, vnder euery board two sockets.
that tho weren eiyte tablis to gidere, and hadden sixtene foundementis of siluer, that is, twei foundementis vndur ech table.
31 After, he made barres of Shittim wood, fiue for the boards in ye one side of ye Tabernacle,

32 And fiue barres for the boardes in the other side of the Tabernacle, and fiue barres for the boards of the Tabernacle on the side toward the West.
and fyue othere barris to schappe to gidere the tablis of the tother side; and without these, he made fyue othere barris at the west coost of the tabernacle ayens the see.
33 And he made the middest barre to shoote through the boards, from the one end to ye other.
He made also another barre, that schulde come bi the myddil tables fro corner til to corner.
34 He ouerlayd also the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold for places for the barres, and couered the barres with golde.
Forsothe he ouergildide tho wallis of tablis, and yetide the siluerne foundementis `of tho, and he made the goldun serclis `of tho, bi whiche the barris myyten be brouyt in, and be hilide the same barris with goldun platis.
35 Moreouer he made a vaile of blew silke, and purple, and of skarlet, and of fine twined linen: with Cherubims of broydred worke made he it:
