1 You shall make the tabernacle out of ten curtains made of finely twisted linen, along with blue, purple, and crimson yarn, and you shall create them with designs of cherubim, the work of skilled craftsmen.

Moreover thou shalt make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work shalt thou make them.

2 The length of each curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits, and the width shall be four cubits. All the curtains shall have the same measurements.

The length of one curtain shall be eight and twenty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: and every one of the curtains shall have one measure.

3 Five of the curtains shall be joined together as one set, and the other five curtains shall also be joined together as a second set.

The five curtains shall be coupled together one to another; and other five curtains shall be coupled one to another.

4 You shall make loops of blue yarn on the edge of the end curtain in one set, and likewise on the edge of the corresponding end curtain in the other set.

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 uttermost edge of another curtain, in the coupling of the second.

5 You shall make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain, and fifty loops on the edge of the second curtain. The loops shall be opposite one another.

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 coupling of the second; that the loops may take hold one of another.

6 You shall make fifty gold clasps and use them to join the curtains together so that the tabernacle forms a single unit.

And thou shalt make fifty taches of gold, and couple the curtains together with the taches: and it shall be one tabernacle.

7 You shall make curtains of goats' hair as a covering for the tabernacle. You shall make eleven of these curtains.

And thou shalt make curtains of goats' hair to be a covering upon the tabernacle: eleven curtains shalt thou make.

8 The length of each curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the width shall be four cubits. All eleven curtains shall have the same measurements.

The length of one curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits: and the eleven curtains shall be all of one measure.

9 You shall join five of the curtains into one set, and the other six curtains into another set. The sixth curtain you shall fold over at the front of the tent.

And thou shalt couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and shalt double the sixth curtain in the forefront of the tabernacle.

10 You shall make fifty loops on the edge of the outermost curtain in the first set and fifty loops on the edge of the outermost curtain in the second set.

And thou shalt make fifty loops on the edge of the one curtain that is outmost in the coupling, and fifty loops in the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second.

11 You shall make fifty bronze clasps and insert them into the loops to join the tent together as one structure.

And thou shalt make fifty taches of brass, and put the taches into the loops, and couple the tent together, that it may be one.

12 The overlapping part of the tent curtains, the extra half-curtain, shall hang down over the back of the tabernacle.

And the remnant that remaineth of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that remaineth, shall hang over the backside of the tabernacle.

13 The cubit on one side and the cubit on the other side of what remains in the length of the tent curtains shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle on either side to cover it.

And a cubit on the one side, and a cubit on the other side of that which remaineth in the length of the curtains of the tent, it shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle on this side and on that side, to cover it.

15 You shall make the frames for the tabernacle out of acacia wood, standing upright.

And thou shalt make boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood standing up.

16 Each frame shall be ten cubits long and one and a half cubits wide.

Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board.

17 Each frame shall have two projections, joined to one another. You shall make all the frames of the tabernacle in this way.

Two tenons shall there be in one board, set in order one against another: thus shalt thou make for all the boards of the tabernacle.

18 You shall make the frames for the tabernacle: twenty frames for the south side, facing south.

And thou shalt make the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards on the south side southward.

19 You shall make forty silver bases to go under the twenty frames: two bases under each frame for its two projections.

And thou shalt make forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards; two sockets under one board for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board for his two tenons.

20 For the second side of the tabernacle, the north side, you shall make twenty frames.

And for the second side of the tabernacle on the north side there shall be twenty boards:

21 And their forty silver bases—two bases under each frame.

And their forty sockets of silver; two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.

22 For the rear side of the tabernacle, to the west, you shall make six frames.

And for the sides of the tabernacle westward thou shalt make six boards.

23 You shall also make two frames for the corners at the rear of the tabernacle.

And two boards shalt thou make for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides.

24 These two frames shall be doubled at the bottom and joined together at the top by a single ring. Both of them shall be made this way for the two corners.

28 The central crossbar shall pass through the middle of the frames, from one end to the other.

And the middle bar in the midst of the boards shall reach from end to end.

29 You shall overlay the frames with gold and make gold rings for them to hold the crossbars; you shall also overlay the crossbars with gold.

And thou shalt hang it upon four pillars of shittim wood overlaid with gold: their hooks shall be of gold, upon the four sockets of silver.

33 You shall hang the veil under the clasps and bring the Ark of the Testimony inside the veil, and the veil shall separate the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place for you.

And thou shalt hang up the vail under the taches, that thou mayest bring in thither within the vail the ark of the testimony: and the vail shall divide unto you between the holy place and the most holy.

34 You shall place the mercy seat on the Ark of the Testimony in the Most Holy Place.

And thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy place.

35 You shall set the table outside the veil, and the lampstand opposite the table, on the south side of the tabernacle, with the table on the north side.
