Exodus 26

CLV(i) 1 The tabernacle you shall make with ten sheets of corded cambric and blue, purple and double-dipped crimson; with cherubim in the handiwork of a designer shall you make them. 2 The length of one sheet shall be twenty-eight cubits and the width four cubits for one sheet; one measure shall be for all the sheets. 3 Five of the sheets shall be joining each to its fellow, and the five other sheets shall be joining each to its fellow. 4 You will make loops of blue on the hem of the one sheet from the end of the joining, and so shall you make in the hem of the endmost sheet at the second joining. 5 Fifty loops shall you make in the one sheet, and fifty loops shall you make in the end of the sheet which shall be at the second joining, causing the loops to receive each to its fellow. 6 Then you will make fifty links of gold, and join the sheets, each to its fellow, by the links; and the tabernacle will come to be one. 7 You will make sheets of goats' hair for the tent over the tabernacle; eleven sheets shall you make them. 8 The length of one sheet shall be thirty cubits and the width four cubits for one sheet, one measure for the eleven sheets. 9 You will join five of the sheets by themselves alone and six of the sheets by themselves alone; and you will double the sixth sheet on the forefront face of the tent. 10 You will make fifty loops on the hem of the one endmost sheet at the joining, and fifty loops on the hem of the sheet at the second joining. 11 You will make fifty copper links and insert the links into the loops and join the tent so that it will come to be one. 12 The extending superfluity of the sheets of the tent, the half sheet superfluity, shall extend over the back of the tabernacle. 13 The cubit hence and the cubit thence in the superfluity in the length of the sheets of the tent shall come to be extended over the sides of the tabernacle hence and thence to cover it. 14 Then you will make a cover for the tent of reddened rams' hides, and a cover of azure hides above. 15 You will make the hollow tapers for the tabernacle of standing acacia boards; 16 ten cubits shall be the length of one hollow taper, and a cubit and a half cubit the width of one hollow taper. 17 Two sloping side boards shall there be to one hollow taper, being projected each to its fellow: thus shall you do for all the hollow tapers of the tabernacle. 18 You will make the hollow tapers for the tabernacle, twenty hollow tapers for the edge toward the Negev, southward;" 19 and forty sockets of silver shall you make under the twenty hollow tapers, two sockets under one hollow taper for its two sloping side boards, and two sockets under another hollow taper for its two sloping side boards. 20 Also for the second angle wall of the tabernacle for the north edge you shall make twenty hollow tapers, 21 with their forty sockets of silver, two sockets under one hollow taper, and two sockets under another hollow taper. 22 Yet for the flanks of the tabernacle seaward shall you make six hollow tapers; 23 And two hollow tapers shall you make for the cutout corners of the tabernacle, in the flanks. 24 Then couplings shall come to be below, and they shall come to be coupled together on its top by one ring. Thus shall it come to be for the two of them, for the two cutout corners shall they come to be. 25 There will come to be eight hollow tapers and their silver sockets, sixteen sockets, two sockets under one hollow taper, and two sockets under another hollow taper. 26 You will make bars of acacia wood, five for the hollow tapers of one angle wall of the tabernacle, 27 five bars for the hollow tapers of the second angle wall of the tabernacle, and five bars for the hollow tapers of the angle wall for the flanks of the tabernacle seaward;" 28 and the middle bar in the midst of the hollow tapers reaching from end to end. 29 The hollow tapers shall you overlay with gold; and their rings shall you make of gold, as housings for the bars, and you will overlay the bars with gold. 30 Then you will set up the tabernacle according to its custom which you are shown on the mount. 31 You will make a curtain of blue, purple, double-dipped crimson and corded cambric; in the handiwork of a designer shall you make it with cherubim. 32 You will put it on four columns of acacia overlaid with gold, with their hooks of gold, on four sockets of silver;" 33 and you will put the curtain under the links. Then you will bring there, inside the curtain, the coffer of the testimony. The curtain will separate for you between the holy place and the holy of holies;" 34 and you will put the propitiatory shelter on the coffer of the testimony in the holy of holies. 35 Yet you will place the table outside the curtain, and the lampstand opposite the table at the angle wall of the tabernacle southward; the table you shall put at the north angle wall. 36 You will make a portiere for the portal of the tent of blue, purple, double-dipped crimson and corded cambric, a handiwork of embroidery. 37 You will make for the portiere five columns of acacia, and overlay them with gold, and their hooks with gold; and you will cast for them five sockets of copper.
