< 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.
2 And you have made its horns on its four corners, its horns are of the same, and you have overlaid it [with] bronze.
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.
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,
5 and have put it under the rim of the altar beneath, and the net has been up to the middle of the altar.
6 And you have made poles for the altar, poles of shittim wood, and have overlaid them [with] bronze.
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.
8 You make it hollow [with] boards; as it has been showed [to] you on the mountain, so do 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,
10 and its twenty pillars and their twenty sockets [are] of bronze, the pegs of the pillars and their fillets [are] 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.
12 And [for] the breadth of the court at the west side [are] 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.
14 And the hangings at the side [are] 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.
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.
17 All the pillars of the court all around [are] filleted [with] silver, their pegs [are] silver, and their sockets bronze.
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;
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.
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.
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.”
