And they made ten curtains for the tabernacle;
2 And he overlaid it with pure gold within and without, and made for it a crown of gold round about.
of eight and twenty cubits the length of one curtain: the same [measure] was to all, and the breadth of one curtain was of four cubits.

And they made the veil of blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined, the woven work with cherubs.
4 And he made staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.

And they made the veil of the door of the tabernacle of witness of blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined, woven work with cherubs,
6 And he made a cover of pure gold: two cubits and a half was its length, and one cubit and a half its breadth.
and their posts five, and the rings; and they gilded their chapiters and their clasps with gold, and they had five sockets of brass.
7 And he made two cherubim of gold, of beaten work made he them, on the two ends of the cover;
And they made the court toward the south; the curtains of the court of fine linen twined, a hundred [cubits] every way,
8 One cherub was on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end; out of the cover itself made he the cherubim on the two ends thereof.
and their posts twenty, and their sockets twenty;
9 And the cherubim were spreading forth their wings on high, overshadowing with their wings the cover, with their faces one to the other; toward the cover were the faces of the cherubim directed.
and on the north side a hundred every way, and on the south side a hundred every way, and their posts twenty and their sockets twenty.
10 And he made the table of shittim wood: two cubits was its length, and a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height;

11 And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made thereto a crown of gold round about.
And on the east side curtains of fifty cubits of fifteen cubits behind,
12 And he made unto it a rim of a hand's breadth round about, and made a golden crown on its rim round about.
and their pillars three, and their sockets three.
13 And he cast for it four rings of gold, and he put the rings on the four corners, that were on the four feet thereof.
And at the second back on this side and on that by the gate of the court, curtains of fifteen cubits, their pillars three and their sockets three;

all the curtains of the tabernacle of fine linen twined.
15 And he made the staves of shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold, to bear the table.

16 And he made the vessels which were upon the table, its dishes, and its spoons, and its purifying tubes, and the supporters wherewith [the bread] was covered, of pure gold.
and the veil of the gate of the court, the work of an embroiderer of blue, and purple, and spun scarlet, and fine linen twined; the length of twenty cubits, and the height and the breadth of five cubits, made equal to the curtains of the court;
17 And he made the candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work made he the candlestick, its shaft, and its branches, its bowls, its knobs, and its flowers, were out of one piece with it.
and their pillars four, and their sockets four of brass, and their hooks of silver, and their chapiters overlaid with silver.

21 And a knob was under two branches that came out of the same, and a knob under two branches that came out of the same, and a knob under two branches that came out of the same, for the six branches that proceeded out of it.
