Exodus
Chapter 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. 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. 3 Five curtains shall be coupled
together one to another; and the other
five curtains shall be coupled one to
another. 4 And thou shalt make loops of
blue upon the edge of the one curtain that
is outmost in the first set; and likewise
shalt thou make in the edge of the curtain
that is outmost in the second set. 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
set; the loops shall be opposite one to
another. 6 And thou shalt make fifty
clasps of gold, and couple the curtains
one to another with the clasps, that the
tabernacle may be one whole. 7 And thou
shalt make curtains of goats' hair for a
tent over the tabernacle; eleven curtains
shalt thou make them. 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. 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. 10 And thou shalt make fifty loops
on the edge of the one curtain that is
outmost in the first set, and fifty loops
upon the edge of the curtain which is
outmost in the second set. 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. 12 And
as for the overhanging part that remaineth
of the curtains of the tent, the half
curtain that remaineth over shall hang
over the back of the tabernacle. 13 And
the cubit on the one side, and the cubit
on the other side, of that which remaineth
over 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. 14 And thou shalt make a
covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed
red and a covering of sealskins above.
15 And thou shalt make the boards for the
tabernacle of acacia-wood, standing up. 16
Ten cubits shall be the length of a board,
and a cubit and a half the breadth of each
board. 17 Two tenons shall there be in
each board, joined one to another; thus
shalt thou make for all the boards of the
tabernacle. 18 And thou shalt make the
boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards
for the south side southward: 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; 20
and for the second side of the tabernacle,
on the north side, twenty boards. 21 And
their forty sockets of silver: two sockets
under one board, and two sockets under
another board. 22 And for the hinder part
of the tabernacle westward thou shalt make
six boards. 23 And two boards shalt thou
make for the corners of the tabernacle in
the hinder part. 24 And they shall be
double beneath, and in like manner they
shall be complete unto the top thereof
unto the first ring; thus shall it be for
them both; they shall be for the two
corners. 25 Thus there shall be eight
boards, and their sockets of silver,
sixteen sockets: two sockets under one
board, and two sockets under another
board. 26 And thou shalt make bars of
acacia-wood: five for the boards of the
one side of the tabernacle, 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; 28 and the
middle bar in the midst of the boards,
which shall pass through from end to end.
29 And thou shalt overlay the boards with
gold, and make their rings of gold for
holders for the bars; and thou shalt
overlay the bars with gold. 30 And thou
shalt rear up the tabernacle according to
the fashion thereof which hath been shown
thee in the mount. 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. 32 And thou shalt hang it upon four
pillars of acacia overlaid with gold,
their hooks being of gold, upon four
sockets of silver. 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
divide unto you between the holy place and
the most holy. 34 And thou shalt put the
ark-cover upon the ark of the testimony in
the most holy place. 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. 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 weaver in colours. 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. |
