Exodus  


38 : 1 They built the altar of burnt offering of acacia wood, three cubits high; it was square, five cubits long and five cubits wide.
38 : 2 They made a horn at each of the four corners, so that the horns and the altar were of one piece, and they overlaid the altar with bronze.
38 : 3 They made all its utensils of bronze--its pots, shovels, sprinkling bowls, meat forks and firepans.
38 : 4 They made a grating for the altar, a bronze network, to be under its ledge, halfway up the altar.
38 : 5 They cast bronze rings to hold the poles for the four corners of the bronze grating.
38 : 6 They made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze.
38 : 7 They inserted the poles into the rings so they would be on the sides of the altar for carrying it. They made it hollow, out of boards.
38 : 8 They made the bronze basin and its bronze stand from the mirrors of the women who served at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
38 : 9 Next they made the courtyard. The south side was a hundred cubits long and had curtains of finely twisted linen,
38 : 10 with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases, and with silver hooks and bands on the posts.
38 : 11 The north side was also a hundred cubits long and had twenty posts and twenty bronze bases, with silver hooks and bands on the posts.
38 : 12 The west end was fifty cubits wide and had curtains, with ten posts and ten bases, with silver hooks and bands on the posts.
38 : 13 The east end, toward the sunrise, was also fifty cubits wide.
38 : 14 Curtains fifteen cubits long were on one side of the entrance, with three posts and three bases,
38 : 15 and curtains fifteen cubits long were on the other side of the entrance to the courtyard, with three posts and three bases.
38 : 16 All the curtains around the courtyard were of finely twisted linen.
38 : 17 The bases for the posts were bronze. The hooks and bands on the posts were silver, and their tops were overlaid with silver; so all the posts of the courtyard had silver bands.
38 : 18 The curtain for the entrance to the courtyard was of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen--the work of an embroiderer. It was twenty cubits long and, like the curtains of the courtyard, five cubits high,
38 : 19 with four posts and four bronze bases. Their hooks and bands were silver, and their tops were overlaid with silver.
38 : 20 All the tent pegs of the tabernacle and of the surrounding courtyard were bronze.
38 : 21 These are the amounts of the materials used for the tabernacle, the tabernacle of the Testimony, which were recorded at Moses` command by the Levites under the direction of Ithamar son of Aaron, the priest.
38 : 22 (Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made everything the LORD commanded Moses;
38 : 23 with him was Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan--a craftsman and designer, and an embroiderer in blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen.)
38 : 24 The total amount of the gold from the wave offering used for all the work on the sanctuary was 29 talents and 730 shekels, according to the sanctuary shekel.
38 : 25 The silver obtained from those of the community who were counted in the census was 100 talents and 1,775 shekels, according to the sanctuary shekel-
38 : 26 one beka per person, that is, half a shekel, according to the sanctuary shekel, from everyone who had crossed over to those counted, twenty years old or more, a total of 603,550 men.
38 : 27 The 100 talents of silver were used to cast the bases for the sanctuary and for the curtain--100 bases from the 100 talents, one talent for each base.
38 : 28 They used the 1,775 shekels to make the hooks for the posts, to overlay the tops of the posts, and to make their bands.
38 : 29 The bronze from the wave offering was 70 talents and 2,400 shekels.
38 : 30 They used it to make the bases for the entrance to the Tent of Meeting, the bronze altar with its bronze grating and all its utensils,
38 : 31 the bases for the surrounding courtyard and those for its entrance and all the tent pegs for the tabernacle and those for the surrounding courtyard.
