Exodus 26
26:1 Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten curtains; of fine twined
linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, with cherubim the work of the skilful
workman shalt thou make them.
26:2 The length of each curtain shall be eight and twenty cubits, and the
breadth of each curtain four cubits: all the curtains shall have one measure.
26:3 Five curtains shall be coupled together one to another; and `the other'
five curtains shall be coupled one to another.
26:4 And thou shalt make loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain from the
selvedge in the coupling; and likewise shalt thou make in the edge of the
curtain that is outmost in the second coupling.
26:5 Fifty loops shalt thou make in the one curtain, and fifty loops shalt thou
make in the edge of the curtain that is in the second coupling; the loops shall
be opposite one to another.
26:6 And thou shalt make fifty clasps of gold, and couple the curtains one to
another with the clasps: and the tabernacle shall be one `whole'.
26:7 And thou shalt make curtains of goats' `hair' for a tent over the
tabernacle: eleven curtains shalt thou make them.
26:8 The length of each curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the breadth of each
curtain four cubits: the eleven curtains shall have one measure.
26:9 And thou shalt couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by
themselves, and shalt double over the sixth curtain in the forefront of the
tent.
26:10 And thou shalt make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain that is
outmost in the coupling, and fifty loops upon the edge of the curtain which is
`outmost in' the second coupling.
26:11 And thou shalt make fifty clasps of brass, and put the clasps into the
loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one.
26:12 And the overhanging part that remaineth of the curtains of the tent, the
half curtain that remaineth, shall hang over the back of the tabernacle.
26:13 And the cubit on the one side, and the cubit on the other side, of that
which remaineth in the length of the curtains of the tent, shall hang over the
sides of the tabernacle on this side and on that side, to cover it.
26:14 And thou shalt make a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a
covering of sealskins above.
26:15 And thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle of acacia wood, standing
up.
26:16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half the
breadth of each board.
26:17 Two tenons shall there be in each board, joined one to another: thus shalt
thou make for all the boards of the tabernacle.
26:18 And thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards for the
south side southward.
26:19 And thou shalt make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two
sockets under one board for its two tenons, and two sockets under another board
for its two tenons.
26:20 And for the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, twenty
boards,
26:21 and their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two
sockets under another board.
26:22 And for the hinder part of the tabernacle westward thou shalt make six
boards.
26:23 And two boards shalt thou make for the corners of the tabernacle in the
hinder part.
26:24 And they shall be double beneath, and in like manner they shall be entire
unto the top thereof unto one ring: thus shall it be for them both; they shall
be for the two corners.
26:25 And there shall be eight boards, and their sockets of silver, sixteen
sockets; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.
26:26 And thou shalt make bars of acacia wood: five for the boards of the one
side of the tabernacle,
26:27 and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five
bars for the boards of the side of the tabernacle, for the hinder part westward.
26:28 And the middle bar in the midst of the boards shall pass through from end
to end.
26:29 And thou shalt overlay the boards with gold, and make their rings of gold
for places for the bars: and thou shalt overlay the bars with gold.
26:30 And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the fashion thereof
which hath been showed thee in the mount.
26:31 And thou shalt make a veil of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine
twined linen: with cherubim the work of the skilful workman shall it be made.
26:32 And thou shalt hang it upon four pillars of acacia overlaid with gold;
their hooks `shall be' of gold, upon four sockets of silver.
26:33 And thou shalt hang up the veil under the clasps, and shalt bring in
thither within the veil the ark of the testimony: and the veil shall separate
unto you between the holy place and the most holy.
26:34 And thou shalt put the mercy-seat upon the ark of the testimony in the
most holy place.
26:35 And thou shalt set the table without the veil, and the candlestick over
against the table on the side of the tabernacle toward the south: and thou shalt
put the table on the north side.
26:36 And thou shalt make a screen for the door of the Tent, of blue, and
purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of the embroiderer.
26:37 And thou shalt make for the screen five pillars of acacia, and overlay
them with gold: their hooks shall be of gold: and thou shalt cast five sockets
of brass for them.
