[Several men helped] Bezalel to make the altar for burning sacrifices. They made it from acacia wood. It was square, (7-1/2 feet/2.2 meters) on each side, and it was (4-1/2 feet/1.3 meters) high.
2 Nĩmathondekire hĩa inya, o rũmwe koine-inĩ ĩmwe ya kĩgongona, nĩ ũndũ ũcio hĩa icio na kĩgongona igĩtuĩka kĩndũ kĩmwe, na makĩgemia kĩgongona kĩu na gĩcango.
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.

They made the pans in which to put the greasy ashes [from the animal sacrifices]. They also made the shovels for cleaning out the ashes. They made the basins and forks for turning the meat as it cooked, and buckets for carrying hot coals/ashes. All of those things were made from bronze.
4 Nĩmathondekire kĩrũtara gĩa kĩgongona gĩa gĩcango, gĩa kũigwo rungu rwa muoho wakĩo, rũkinye nuthu ya ũraihu wa kĩgongona.
They also made a bronze grating to hold the wood and burning coals. They put the grating under the rim that went around the altar. [They] made it so that it was [inside the altar], halfway down.
5 Magĩtwekia mĩrĩnga ya gĩcango ya kũnyiitĩrĩra mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩraaya ya koine inya cia kĩrũtara gĩa gĩcango.
They made bronze rings in which to put the poles [for carrying the altar], and fastened one of them to each of the corners of the altar.

They made the poles from acacia wood and covered them with bronze.

They put the poles through the rings on each side of the altar. The poles were for carrying the altar.

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.

[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.

[To hang the curtain], they made 20 bronze posts and 20 bronze bases, [one for under each post]. [To fasten the curtains to] the posts, they made silver hooks, and [they made metal] rods [covered with] silver.

On each side of the entrance, they made a curtain (22-1/2 feet/6.6 meters) wide. On each side they [were hung from] three posts, and one base was under each post.

All the posts around the courtyard were made of bronze, but the tops were covered with silver. The posts were connected with [metal] rods [covered with] silver. The clasps/fasteners and hooks were made of silver.

For the entrance of the courtyard, they made a curtain from fine white linen, and a skilled weaver embroidered it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread. The curtain was (30 feet/9 meters) long and (7-1/2 feet/2.3 meters) high, just like the other curtains around the courtyard.

All the curtains were made of fine white linen. They were supported by four posts, and [under each post] was a base made of bronze. All the posts around the courtyard were connected with [metal] rods [covered with] silver. The clasps/fasteners were made of silver, and the tops of the posts were covered with silver.

Here is a list of the amounts of metal used to make the Sacred Tent. Moses/I told [some men from] the tribe of Levi to [count all the materials used and] write down the amounts. Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest, supervised those men.
22 (Bezaleli mũrũ wa Uri, ũrĩa warĩ mũrũ wa Huri, wa mũhĩrĩga wa Juda, nĩathondekire kĩrĩa gĩothe Jehova aathĩte Musa;

Bezalel’s helper was Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan. Oholiab was a skilled engraver who made artistic things. He made fine white linen, and he embroidered designs using blue, purple, and red yarn/thread. He also made other cloth.

All the gold that was used to make the Sacred Tent weighed (2,195 pounds/1,000 kg.). They used the official standard when they weighed the gold.

They used (75 pounds/34 kg.) of silver for making/casting each of the 100 bases to [put under the posts to support] the curtains of the Sacred Tent.
