“Tell them to make an altar from acacia wood. It is to be square, (7-1/2 feet/2.2 meters) on each side, and make it (4-1/2 feet/1.3 meters) high.

[They] must make [a projection that looks like] a horn on each of the top corners. The projections must be carved from the same block of wood as the altar. [Tell them to] cover the whole altar with gold.

[They must] make pans in which to put the [greasy] ashes [from the animal sacrifices]. Also [they must] make shovels for cleaning out the ashes, basins and forks for turning the meat as it cooks, and buckets for carrying hot coals/ashes. All of these things must be made from bronze.

Also [tell them to] make a bronze grating to hold the wood and burning coals. They must fasten to each of the corners of the altar a bronze ring for carrying the altar.
5 Gbé e sí abẹ́ igun pẹpẹ náà, kí ó lè dé ìdajì pẹpẹ náà.
[They must] put the grating under the rim that is around the altar. [They must] make it so that it is [inside the altar], halfway down.
6 Ìwọ yóò sí ṣe òpó igi kasia fún pẹpẹ náà, kí o sì bò ó pẹ̀lú idẹ.
For [carrying] the altar, [they must] make poles from acacia wood and cover them with bronze.

[They must] put the poles through the rings on each side of the altar. The poles are for carrying the altar.

The altar will be like a box, made from boards [of acacia wood]. [They must] make it according to these instructions that I am giving you [here] on [this] mountain.”
9 “Ìwọ yóò sì ṣe àgbàlá fún àgọ́ náà. Ní ìhà gúúsù, ó gbọdọ̀ jẹ́ ọgọ́rùn-ún ìgbọ̀nwọ́ (mita mẹ́rìndínláàádọ́ta) ní gíga, kí ó sì ní aṣọ títa ti ọ̀gbọ̀ olókùn wíwẹ́,
“Around the Sacred Tent there is to be a courtyard. To form the courtyard, [tell them to] make curtains of fine linen. On the south side, the curtain is to be (50 yards/44 meters) long.
10 pẹ̀lú ogún òpó àti ogún ihò ìtẹ̀bọ̀ idẹ pẹ̀lú ìkọ́ fàdákà, kí ó sì di àwọn òpó mú.
[To support/hang the curtain], [tell them to] make twenty bronze posts, and one bronze base for each post. To fasten the curtains to the posts, [they must] make silver hooks, and [metal] rods [covered with] silver [to fasten the curtains to the hooks].
11 Kí ìhà àríwá náà jẹ́ mita mẹ́rìndínláàádọ́ta ní gíga, kí ó sì ní aṣọ títa, pẹ̀lú ogun òpó àti ogún ihò ìtẹ̀bọ̀ idẹ, pẹ̀lú ìkọ́ fàdákà tí ó sì di àwọn òpó mú.

On the west side [of the courtyard] they must make a curtain (25 yards/22 meters) long. The curtains are to be supported by ten posts, with a base under [each] post.
13 Ní ìhà ìlà-oòrùn, sí ibi tí oòrùn tí ń jáde, àgbàlá náà yóò jẹ́ mita mẹ́tàlélógún ní fífẹ̀.
On the east side, [where the entrance is], the courtyard must also be (25 yards/22 meters) wide.
14 Aṣọ títa ìgbọ̀nwọ́ mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dógún ní gíga ní yóò wà ní ìhà ẹnu-ọ̀nà, pẹ̀lú òpó mẹ́ta àti ihò ìtẹ̀bọ̀ mẹ́ta,
[Tell them to] make a curtain (22-1/2 feet/6.6 meters) wide for each side of the entrance [to the courtyard].

They must make a curtain (30 feet/9 meters) long for the entrance. A skilled weaver must embroider it with blue, purple, and red yarn/thread. It must be (supported by/hung from) four posts, each one with a base under it.
17 Gbogbo òpó ti ó wà ní àyíká àgbàlá náà ni a ó fi fàdákà ṣo pọ̀ àti ìkọ́, àti ihò ìtẹ̀bọ̀ idẹ.
All the posts around the courtyard must be connected with metal rods covered with silver. The clasps/fasteners must be made of silver, and the bases must be made of bronze.
18 Àgbàlá náà yóò jẹ́ mita mẹ́rìndínláàádọ́ta ni gíga àti mita mẹ́tàlélógún ní fífẹ̀, pẹ̀lú aṣọ títa ti ọ̀gbọ̀ olókùn mita méjì ní gíga, àti pẹ̀lú ihò ìtẹ̀bọ̀ idẹ.
The whole courtyard, [from the east entrance to the west end], must be (50 yards/44 meters) long, and the curtains that enclose it must be (7-1/2 feet/2.3 meters) high. All the curtains must be made of fine linen, and all the bases [under the posts] must be made of bronze.

All the things [that are not made of gold] that are to be used inside the Sacred Tent and in the courtyard, and all the tent pegs to support the Sacred Tent and the curtains, must be made of bronze.
20 “Ìwọ yóò sì pàṣẹ fún àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, kí wọn kí ó mú òróró olifi dáradára tí a gún fún ọ wá, fún ìmọ́lẹ̀, kí fìtílà lè máa tàn síbẹ̀.
“Command the Israeli people that they must bring to you the best kind of olive oil to [burn in] the lamps. [They must bring this oil to you continually], in order that the lamps can burn continually.
21 Ní àgọ́ àjọ, lẹ́yìn òde aṣọ ìkélé tí ó wá níwájú ẹ̀rí náà, Aaroni àti òun àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, ni yóò tọ́jú rẹ̀ láti alẹ́, títí di òwúrọ̀ níwájú Olúwa: yóò sì di ìlànà láéláé ni ìrandíran wọn lọ́dọ̀ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.
They must put the lampstand outside of the curtain which is in front of [the sacred chest which contains the stone slabs on which I have written] my commandments. Aaron must take care of the lamps. [After he dies], his descendants must do this work. The lamps are to burn every night, from evening until morning. The Israeli people must obey this regulation throughout all future generations.”
