1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1“You are to construct the tabernacle itself with ten curtains of finely spun linen, each with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and cherubim skillfully worked into them. |
2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2Each curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits long and four cubits wide—all curtains the same size. |
3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3Five of the curtains are to be joined together, and the other five joined as well. |
4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4Make loops of blue material on the edge of the end curtain in the first set, and do the same for the end curtain in the second set. |
5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5Make fifty loops on one curtain and fifty loops on the end curtain of the second set, so that the loops line up opposite one another. |
6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6Make fifty gold clasps as well, and join the curtains together with the clasps, so that the tabernacle will be a unit. |
7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7You are to make curtains of goat hair for the tent over the tabernacle—eleven curtains in all. |
8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8Each of the eleven curtains is to be the same size—thirty cubits long and four cubits wide. |
9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9Join five of the curtains into one set and the other six into another. Then fold the sixth curtain over double at the front of the tent. |
10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10Make fifty loops along the edge of the end curtain in the first set, and fifty loops along the edge of the corresponding curtain in the second set. |
11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11Make fifty bronze clasps and put them through the loops to join the tent together as a unit. |
12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12As for the overlap that remains of the tent curtains, the half curtain that is left over shall hang down over the back of the tabernacle. |
13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13And the tent curtains will be a cubit longer on either side, and the excess will hang over the sides of the tabernacle to cover it. |
14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14Also make a covering for the tent out of ram skins dyed red, and over that a covering of fine leather. |
15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15You are to construct upright frames of acacia wood for the tabernacle. |
16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16Each frame is to be ten cubits long and a cubit and a half wide. |
17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17Two tenons must be connected to each other for each frame. Make all the frames of the tabernacle in this way. |
18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18Construct twenty frames for the south side of the tabernacle, |
19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19with forty silver bases under the twenty frames—two bases for each frame, one under each tenon. |
20[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 20For the second side of the tabernacle, the north side, make twenty frames |
21[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 21and forty silver bases—two bases under each frame. |
22[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 22Make six frames for the rear of the tabernacle, the west side, |
23[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 23and two frames for the two back corners of the tabernacle, |
24[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 24coupled together from bottom to top and fitted into a single ring. These will serve as the two corners. |
25[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 25So there are to be eight frames and sixteen silver bases—two under each frame. |
26[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 26You are also to make five crossbars of acacia wood for the frames on one side of the tabernacle, |
27[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 27five for those on the other side, and five for those on the rear side of the tabernacle, to the west. |
28[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 28The central crossbar in the middle of the frames shall extend from one end to the other. |
29[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 29Overlay the frames with gold and make gold rings to hold the crossbars. Also overlay the crossbars with gold. |
30[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 30So you are to set up the tabernacle according to the pattern shown you on the mountain. |
31[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 31Make a veil of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and finely spun linen, with cherubim skillfully worked into it. |
32[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 32Hang it with gold hooks on four posts of acacia wood, overlaid with gold and standing on four silver bases. |
33[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 33And hang the veil from the clasps and place the ark of the Testimony behind the veil. So the veil will separate the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place. |
34[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 34Put the mercy seat on the ark of the Testimony in the Most Holy Place. |
35[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 35And place the table outside the veil on the north side of the tabernacle, and put the lampstand opposite the table, on the south side. |
36[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 36For the entrance to the tent, you are to make a curtain embroidered with blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and finely spun linen. |
37[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 37Make five posts of acacia wood for the curtain, overlay them with gold hooks, and cast five bronze bases for them. |
