Exodus  


26 : 1 Make the tabernacle with ten curtains of finely twisted linen and blue, purple and scarlet yarn, with cherubim worked into them by a skilled craftsman.
26 : 2 All the curtains are to be the same size--twenty-eight cubits long and four cubits wide.
26 : 3 Join five of the curtains together, and do the same with the other five.
26 : 4 Make loops of blue material along the edge of the end curtain in one set, and do the same with the end curtain in the other set.
26 : 5 Make fifty loops on one curtain and fifty loops on the end curtain of the other set, with the loops opposite each other.
26 : 6 Then make fifty gold clasps and use them to fasten the curtains together so that the tabernacle is a unit.
26 : 7 Make curtains of goat hair for the tent over the tabernacle--eleven altogether.
26 : 8 All eleven curtains are to be the same size--thirty cubits long and four cubits wide.
26 : 9 Join five of the curtains together into one set and the other six into another set. Fold the sixth curtain double at the front of the tent.
26 : 10 Make fifty loops along the edge of the end curtain in one set and also along the edge of the end curtain in the other set.
26 : 11 Then make fifty bronze clasps and put them in the loops to fasten the tent together as a unit.
26 : 12 As for the additional length of the tent curtains, the half curtain that is left over is to hang down at the rear of the tabernacle.
26 : 13 The tent curtains will be a cubit longer on both sides; what is left will hang over the sides of the tabernacle so as to cover it.
26 : 14 Make for the tent a covering of ram skins dyed red, and over that a covering of hides of sea cows.
26 : 15 Make upright frames of acacia wood for the tabernacle.
26 : 16 Each frame is to be ten cubits long and a cubit and a half wide,
26 : 17 with two projections set parallel to each other. Make all the frames of the tabernacle in this way.
26 : 18 Make twenty frames for the south side of the tabernacle
26 : 19 and make forty silver bases to go under them--two bases for each frame, one under each projection.
26 : 20 For the other side, the north side of the tabernacle, make twenty frames
26 : 21 and forty silver bases--two under each frame.
26 : 22 Make six frames for the far end, that is, the west end of the tabernacle,
26 : 23 and make two frames for the corners at the far end.
26 : 24 At these two corners they must be double from the bottom all the way to the top, and fitted into a single ring; both shall be like that.
26 : 25 So there will be eight frames and sixteen silver bases--two under each frame.
26 : 26 Also make crossbars of acacia wood: five for the frames on one side of the tabernacle,
26 : 27 five for those on the other side, and five for the frames on the west, at the far end of the tabernacle.
26 : 28 The center crossbar is to extend from end to end at the middle of the frames.
26 : 29 Overlay the frames with gold and make gold rings to hold the crossbars. Also overlay the crossbars with gold.
26 : 30 Set up the tabernacle according to the plan shown you on the mountain.
26 : 31 Make a curtain of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen, with cherubim worked into it by a skilled craftsman.
26 : 32 Hang it with gold hooks on four posts of acacia wood overlaid with gold and standing on four silver bases.
26 : 33 Hang the curtain from the clasps and place the ark of the Testimony behind the curtain. The curtain will separate the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place.
26 : 34 Put the atonement cover on the ark of the Testimony in the Most Holy Place.
26 : 35 Place the table outside the curtain on the north side of the tabernacle and put the lampstand opposite it on the south side.
26 : 36 For the entrance to the tent make a curtain of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen--the work of an embroiderer.
26 : 37 Make gold hooks for this curtain and five posts of acacia wood overlaid with gold. And cast five bronze bases for them.
