< Exodus 36 >

1 "Bezalel and Oholiab shall work with every wise-hearted man, in whom the LORD has put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all the work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that the LORD has commanded."
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.
2 Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab, and every wise-hearted man, in whose heart God had put wisdom, even everyone whose heart stirred him up to come to the work to do it:
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.
3 and they received from Moses all the offering which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, with which to make it. They brought yet to him freewill offerings every morning.
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.
4 All the wise men, who performed all the work of the sanctuary, each came from his work which they did.
So all the wise men, that wrought all the holy worke, came euery man from his worke which they wrought,
5 They spoke to Moses, saying, "The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work which the LORD commanded to make."
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.
6 Moses gave commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, "Let neither man nor woman make anything else for the offering for the sanctuary." So the people were restrained from bringing.
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.
7 For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.
For the stuffe they had, was sufficient for all the worke to make it, and too much.
8 All the wise-hearted men among those who did the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains; of fine twined linen, blue, purple, and scarlet, with cherubim, the work of the skillful workman, they made them.
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.
9 The length of each curtain was forty-eight feet three inches, and the breadth of each curtain six feet eleven inches. All the curtains were the same size.
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.
10 He coupled five curtains to one another, and the other five curtains he coupled one to another.
And he coupled fiue curtaines together, and other fiue coupled he together.
11 He made loops of blue on the edge of the one curtain from the edge in the coupling. Likewise he made in the edge of the curtain that was outmost in the second coupling.
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.
12 He made fifty loops in the one curtain, and he made fifty loops in the edge of the curtain that was in the second coupling. The loops were opposite one to another.
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.
13 He made fifty clasps of gold, and coupled the curtains one to another with the clasps: so the tabernacle was a unit.
After, he made fiftie taches of golde, and coupled the curtaines one to another with the taches: so was it one Tabernacle.
14 He made curtains of goats' hair for a covering over the tabernacle. He made them eleven curtains.
Also he made curtaines of goates heare for the couering vpon the Tabernacle: he made them to the nomber of eleuen curtaines.

And hee coupled fiue curtaines by themselues, and sixe curtaines by themselues:
17 He made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was outmost in the coupling, and he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain which was outmost in the second coupling.
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.
18 He made fifty clasps of bronze to couple the tent together, that it might be a unit.

22 Each board had two tenons, joined one to another. He made all the boards of the tabernacle this way.
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.
23 He made the boards for the tabernacle: twenty boards for the south side southward.
So he made twentie boardes for the South side of the Tabernacle, euen full South.
24 He made forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for its two tenons, and two sockets under another board for its two tenons.
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.
25 For the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, he made twenty boards,
Also for the other side of the Tabernacle toward the North, he made twentie boards,
26 and their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.
And their fourtie sockets of siluer, two sockets vnder one board, and two sockets vnder another boarde.
27 For the far part of the tabernacle westward he made six boards.
Likewise toward the Westside of the Tabernacle he made sixe boardes.
28 He made two boards for the corners of the tabernacle in the far part.
And two boardes made he in the corners of the Tabernacle, for either side,
29 They were double beneath, and in like manner they were all the way to its top to one ring. He did thus to both of them in the two corners.
And they were ioyned beneath, and likewise were made sure aboue with a ring: thus he did to both in both corners.
30 There were eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets; under every board two sockets.
So there were eight boards and their sixteene sockets of siluer, vnder euery board two sockets.

33 He made the middle bar to pass through in the midst of the boards from the one end to the other.
And he made the middest barre to shoote through the boards, from the one end to ye other.
34 He overlaid the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold for places for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold.
He ouerlayd also the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold for places for the barres, and couered the barres with golde.
