1 Forsothe the tabernacle schal be maad thus; thou schalt make ten curtyns of bijs foldyd ayen, and of iacynt, of purpur, and of reed silk twies died, dyuersid bi broidery werk.

“Truly, thus shall you make the tabernacle: You shall make ten curtains of fine twisted linen, and hyacinth as well as purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, with diverse embroidery.

2 The lengthe of o curteyn schal haue eiyte and twenti cubitis, the broodnesse schal be of foure cubitis; alle tentis schulen be maad of o mesure.

The length of one curtain shall have twenty-eight cubits. The width shall be four cubits. The entire set of curtains shall be of one measure.

3 Fyue curtyns schulen be ioyned to hem silf to gidere, and othere fiue cleue to gidere bi lijk boond.

Five curtains shall be joined to one another, and the other five shall be similarly coupled together.

4 Thou schalt make handels of iacynt in the sidis, and hiynessis of curtyns, that tho moun be couplid to gidere.

You shall make loops of hyacinth on the sides at the edges of the curtains, so that they will be able to be joined to one another.

5 A curteyn schal haue fyfti handlis in euer eithir part, so set yn, that `an handle come ayen an handle, and the toon may be schappid to the tothir.

A curtain shall have fifty loops on each of two sides, inserted in such a manner that loop may come against loop, and one can be fitted to the other.

6 And thou schalt make fifti goldun ryngis, bi whiche the `veilis of curteyns schulen be ioyned, that o tabernacle be maad.

You shall also make fifty rings of gold, with which the veils of the curtains are to be joined, so that it shall be one tabernacle.

7 Also thou schalt make enleuene saies to kyuere the hilyng of the tabernacle;

You shall also make eleven haircloth canopies to cover the roof of the tabernacle.

8 the lengthe of o say schal haue thretti cubitis, and the breed schal haue foure cubitis; euene mesure schal be of alle saies.

The length of one canopy shall hold thirty cubits, and the width, four. The measure of all the canopies shall be equal.

9 Of which thou schalt ioyne fyue by hem silf, and thou schalt couple sixe to hem silf togidere, so that thou double the sixte say in the frount of the roof.

Five of these you shall join by themselves, and six of these you shall couple to one another, in such a manner as to double the sixth canopy at the front of the roof.

10 And thou schalt make fifti handles in the hemme of o say, that it may be ioyned with the tother; and `thou schalt make fifti handles in the hemme of the tothir say, that it be couplid with the tothir;

You shall also make fifty loops along the edge of one canopy, so that it may be able to be joined with the other, and fifty loops along the edge of the other canopy, so that it may be coupled with the other.

11 thou schalt make fifti fastnyngis of bras, bi whiche the handles schulen be ioyned to gidere, that oon hylyng be maad of alle.

You shall also make fifty brass buckles, with which the loops may be joined, so that there may be one covering out of all.

12 Sotheli that that is residue in the saies, that ben maad redi to the hilyng, that is, o sai whych is more, of the myddis therof thou schalt hile the hyndrere part of the tabernacle; and a cubit schal hange on o part,

Then what will be left over of the canopies which are prepared for the roof, that is, one canopy which is in excess, from half of it you shall cover the back of the tabernacle.

13 and the tother cubit on the tother part, which cubit is more in the lengthe of saies, and schal hile euer either syde of the tabernacle.

And one cubit will hang down on one side, and another on the other side, which is more than the length of the curtains, protecting both sides of the tabernacle.

14 And thou schalt make another hilyng to the roof, of `skynnes of wetheres maad reed, and ouer this thou schalt make eft anothir hilyng of `skynnes of iacynt.

You shall also make another covering for the roof from the skins of rams, dyed-red, and above that again, another covering of violet-colored skins.

15 Also thou schalt make stondynge tablis of the tabernacle, of the trees of Sechym,

You shall also make the standing panels of the tabernacle from setim wood.

16 whiche tablis schulen haue ech bi hem silf ten cubitis in lengthe, and in brede a cubit and half.

Of these, each shall have ten cubits in length, and in width, one and one half.

17 Forsothe twei dentyngis schulen be in the sidis of a table, bi which a table schal be ioyned to another table; and in this maner alle the tablis schulen be maad redi.

At the sides of the panels, there shall be made two dovetails, by which one panel may be connected to another panel; and in this way all the panels shall be prepared.

18 Of whiche tablis twenti schulen be in the myddai side, that goith to the south;

Of these, twenty shall be at the meridian, which lies toward the south.

19 to whiche tablis thou schalt yete fourti silueren foundementis, that twei foundementis be set vndir ech table, bi twei corneris.

For these, you shall cast forty bases of silver, so that two bases will lie under each panel at its two corners.

20 In the secounde side of the tabernacle, that goith to the north, schulen be twenti tablis, hauynge fourti silueren foundementis; twei foundementis schulen be set vndir ech table.

Likewise, at the second side of the tabernacle, which lies to the north, there shall be twenty panels,

21 Sotheli at the west coost of the tabernacle thou schalt make sixe tablis;

having forty bases of silver; two bases shall support each panel.

22 and eft thou schalt make tweine othere tablis,

Truly, toward the western part of the tabernacle, you shall make six panels,

23 that schulen be reisid in the corneris `bihynde the bak of the taberancle;

and again another two, which will be raised at the corners, behind the back of the tabernacle.

24 and the tablis schulen be ioyned to hem silf fro bynethe til to aboue, and o ioynyng schal withholde alle the tablis. And lijk ioynyng schal be kept to the twei tablis, that schulen be set in the corneris,

And these shall be joined together from bottom to top, and one joint shall retain them all. Likewise, two of the panels, which will be set at the corners, shall be served by similar joints.

25 and tho schulen be eiyte tablis to gidere; the siluerne foundementis of tho schulen be sixtene, while twei foundementis ben rikenyd bi o table.

And together these will be eight panels, and their bases of silver, sixteen, counting two bases for each panel.

26 Thou schalt make also fyue barris of `trees of Sechym, to holde togidere the tablis in o side of the tabernacle,

You shall also make five bars of setim wood, to connect the panels on one side of the tabernacle,

27 and fyue othere barris in the tother side, and of the same noumbre at the west coost;

and five others on the other side, and the same number toward the western part.

28 whiche barris schulen be put thorou the myddil tablis fro the toon ende til to the tothir.

These shall be set along the middle of the panels, from one end all the way to the other end.

29 And thou schalt ouergilde tho tablis, and thou schalt yete goldun ryngis in tho, bi whiche ryngis, the barris schulen holde togidere the werk of tablis, whyche barris thou schalt hile with goldun platis.

Likewise, the panels themselves you shall overlay with gold, and you shall establish rings of gold in them, by which the bars of the panels may be connected. These you shall cover with layers of gold.

You shall also make a veil of hyacinth, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twisted linen, wrought with a diversity of continuous and beautiful embroidery.

32 which veil thou schalt hange bifor foure pileris of `the trees of Sechym; and sotheli tho pileris schulen be ouergildid; and tho schulen haue goldun heedis, but foundementis of siluer.

And you shall suspend it before four columns of setim wood, which themselves certainly shall be overlaid with gold, and have heads of gold, but bases of silver.

33 Forsothe the veil schal be set in bi the cerclis, with ynne which veil thou schalt sette the arke of witnessyng, wherbi the seyntuarye and the seyntuaries of seyntuarie schulen be departid.

Then the veil shall be inserted through the rings. Beyond the veil, you shall place the ark of the testimony, where both the Sanctuary and the Sanctuary of Sanctuaries shall be divided.

34 And thou schalt sette the propiciatorie on the arke of witnessyng, in to the hooli of hooli thingis;

And you shall place the propitiatory over the ark of the testimony, in the Holy of Holies.
