Akatengeneza madhabahu ya sadaka ya kuteketezwa kwa mbao za mti wa mshita, kimo chake dhiraa tatu; nayo ilikuwa mraba, urefu wake dhiraa tano, na upana wa dhiraa tano
2 They made [a projection that looked like] a horn on each of the top corners. The projections were carved from the same block of wood that the altar [was made of]. They covered the whole altar with bronze.
Akatengeneza upembe kwenye kila pembe ya hizo pembe nne, ili zile pembe na madhabahu zikawa zimeungana, akafunika madhabahu kwa shaba.

Akatengeneza vyombo vyake vyote kwa shaba: vyungu vyake vya kuondolea majivu, masepetu, mabakuli ya kunyunyizia, uma za nyama na vyombo vya kuchukulia moto.

Akatengeneza wavu wa shaba chini ya ukingo wa madhabahu ili ufikie nusu ya kimo cha madhabahu.

Akatengeneza mipiko ya mti wa mshita na kuifunika kwa shaba.
7 They put the poles through the rings on each side of the altar. The poles were for carrying the altar.
Akaiingiza ile mipiko kwenye zile pete, ili iwe pande mbili za madhabahu kwa ajili ya kuibeba. Akaitengeneza madhabahu yenye uvungu ndani yake akitumia mbao.
8 The altar was [hollow] like an empty box. It was made from boards [of acacia wood]. They made/cast the washbasin and its base from bronze. The bronze was from the mirrors that belonged to the women who worked at the entrance of the Sacred Tent.
Akatengeneza sinia la shaba lenye kitako cha shaba kutoka kwa vioo vya shaba vilivyotolewa na wanawake waliohudumu pale ingilio la Hema la Kukutania.
9 [Around the Sacred Tent] Bezalel and his helpers made a courtyard. To form the courtyard, they made curtains of fine white linen. On the south side, the curtain was (150 feet/46 meters) long.
Kisha akatengeneza ua. Upande wa kusini ulikuwa na urefu wa dhiraa mia moja, na ulikuwa na mapazia ya kitani iliyosokotwa vizuri,

Pazia la ingilio la ua lilikuwa la nyuzi za rangi ya buluu, za zambarau, na za rangi nyekundu pamoja na kitani iliyosokotwa vizuri, kazi ya mtarizi. Pazia hilo lilikuwa na urefu wa dhiraa ishirini kama zile za kwenye ua, na kimo chake kilikuwa dhiraa tano,
