New International Version (NIV) |
|
1 And thou shalt make an altar [of] shittim wood, five cubits long, and five cubits broad; the altar shall be foursquare: and its hight [shall be] three cubits.
|
1 "Build an altar of acacia wood, three cubits high; it is to be square, five cubits long and five cubits wide.
|
|
2 And thou shalt make the horns of it upon the four corners thereof: its horns shall be of the same: and thou shalt overlay it with brass.
|
2 Make a horn at each of the four corners, so that the horns and the altar are of one piece, and overlay the altar with bronze.
|
|
3 And thou shalt make its pans to receive its ashes, and its shovels, and its basins, and its flesh-hooks, and its fire-pans: all its vessels thou shalt make [of] brass.
|
3 Make all its utensils of bronze--its pots to remove the ashes, and its shovels, sprinkling bowls, meat forks and firepans.
|
|
4 And thou shalt make for it a grate of net-work of brass; and upon the net shalt thou make four brazen rings in its four corners.
|
4 Make a grating for it, a bronze network, and make a bronze ring at each of the four corners of the network.
|
|
5 And thou shalt put it under the compass of the altar beneath, that the net may be even to the midst of the altar.
|
5 Put it under the ledge of the altar so that it is halfway up the altar.
|
|
6 And thou shalt make staffs for the altar, staffs [of] shittim wood, and overlay them with brass.
|
6 Make poles of acacia wood for the altar and overlay them with bronze.
|
|
7 And the staffs shall be put into the rings, and the staffs shall be upon the two sides of the altar, to bear it.
|
7 The poles are to be inserted into the rings so they will be on two sides of the altar when it is carried.
|
|
8 Hollow with boards shalt thou make it: as it was shown thee on the mount, so shall they make [it].
|
8 Make the altar hollow, out of boards. It is to be made just as you were shown on the mountain.
