Exodus 27

1 “And you have made the altar of shittim wood, five cubits the length, and five cubits the breadth—the altar is square—and three cubits [is] its height.

And thou shalt make the altar of acacia wood, five cubits long, and five cubits broad; the altar shall be foursquare: and the height thereof shall be three cubits.

2 And you have made its horns on its four corners, its horns are of the same, and you have overlaid it [with] bronze.

And thou shalt make the horns of it upon the four corners thereof; the horns thereof shall be of one piece with it: and thou shalt overlay it with brass.

3 And you have made its pots to remove its ashes, and its shovels, and its bowls, and its forks, and its fire-pans, even all its vessels you make of bronze.

And thou shalt make its pots to take away its ashes, and its shovels, and its basins, and its flesh-hooks, and its firepans: all the vessels thereof thou shalt make of brass.

4 And you have made a grate of network of bronze for it, and have made four rings of bronze on the net on its four extremities,

And thou shalt make for it a grating of network of brass: and upon the net shalt thou make four brazen rings in the four corners thereof.

5 and have put it under the rim of the altar beneath, and the net has been up to the middle of the altar.

And thou shalt put it under the ledge round the altar beneath, that the net may reach halfway up the altar.

6 And you have made poles for the altar, poles of shittim wood, and have overlaid them [with] bronze.

And thou shalt make staves for the altar, staves of acacia wood, and overlay them with brass.

7 And the poles have been brought into the rings, and the poles have been on the two sides of the altar in carrying it.

And the staves thereof shall be put into the rings, and the staves shall be upon the two sides of the altar, in bearing it.

8 You make it hollow [with] boards; as it has been showed [to] you on the mountain, so do they make [it].

Hollow with planks shalt thou make it: as it hath been showed thee in the mount, so shall they make it.

9 And you have made the court of the Dwelling Place: for the south side southward, hangings for the court of twined linen, the length of the first side [is] one hundred by the cubit,

And thou shalt make the court of the tabernacle: for the south side southward there shall be hangings for the court of fine twined linen a hundred cubits long for one side:

10 and its twenty pillars and their twenty sockets [are] of bronze, the pegs of the pillars and their fillets [are] of silver;

and the pillars thereof shall be twenty, and their sockets twenty, of brass; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets [shall be] of silver.

11 and so for the north side in length, hangings of one hundred [cubits] in length, and its twenty pillars and their twenty sockets [are] of bronze, the pegs of the pillars and their fillets [are] of silver.

And likewise for the north side in length there shall be hangings a hundred cubits long, and the pillars thereof twenty, and their sockets twenty, of brass; the hooks of the pillars, and their fillets, of silver.

12 And [for] the breadth of the court at the west side [are] hangings of fifty cubits, their pillars ten, and their sockets ten.

And for the breadth of the court on the west side shall be hangings of fifty cubits; their pillars ten, and their sockets ten.

13 And the breadth of the court at the east side, eastward, [is] fifty cubits.

And the breadth of the court on the east side eastward shall be fifty cubits.

14 And the hangings at the side [are] fifteen cubits, their pillars three, and their sockets three.

The hangings for the one side [of the gate] shall be fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three.

15 And at the second side [are] hangings of fifteen [cubits], their pillars three, and their sockets three.

And for the other side shall be hangings of fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three.

16 And for the gate of the court [is] a covering of twenty cubits of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen, the work of an embroiderer; their pillars four, their sockets four.

And for the gate of the court shall be a screen of twenty cubits, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the embroiderer; their pillars four, and their sockets four.

17 All the pillars of the court all around [are] filleted [with] silver, their pegs [are] silver, and their sockets bronze.

All the pillars of the court round about shall be filleted with silver; their hooks of silver, and their sockets of brass.

18 The length of the court [is] one hundred by the cubit, and the breadth fifty by fifty, and the height five cubits, of twined linen, and their sockets [are] bronze;

The length of the court shall be a hundred cubits, and the breadth fifty every where, and the height five cubits, of fine twined linen, and their sockets of brass.

19 for all the vessels of the Dwelling Place, in all its service, and all its pins, and all the pins of the court, [are] bronze.

All the instruments of the tabernacle in all the service thereof, and all the pins thereof, and all the pins of the court, shall be of brass.

20 And you command the sons of Israel, and they bring pure oil of beaten olive to you for the light, to cause the lamp to go up continually.

And thou shalt command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually.

21 In the Tent of Meeting, at the outside of the veil, which [is] over the Testimony, Aaron—his sons also—arrange it from evening until morning before YHWH. [It is] a continuous statute for their generations, from the sons of Israel.”

In the tent of meeting, without the veil which is before the testimony, Aaron and his sons shall keep it in order from evening to morning before Jehovah: it shall be a statute for ever throughout their generations on the behalf of the children of Israel.
