GOD'S WORD Translation GW
New International Version NIV
1 [The LORD continued,] "Make the inner tent with ten sheets made from fine linen yarn. Take violet, purple, and bright red yarn, and creatively work an angel design into the fabric.
1
“Make the tabernacle with ten curtains of finely twisted linen and blue, purple and scarlet yarn, with cherubim woven into them by a skilled worker.
2 Each sheet will be 42 feet long and 6 feet wide--all the same size.
2
All the curtains are to be the same size—twenty-eight cubits long and four cubits wide.
3 Five of the sheets must be sewn together, and the other five must also be sewn together.
3
Join five of the curtains together, and do the same with the other five.
4 Make 50 violet loops along the edge of the end sheet in each set,
4
Make loops of blue material along the edge of the end curtain in one set, and do the same with the end curtain in the other set.
5 placing the loops opposite each other.

Make fifty loops on one curtain and fifty loops on the end curtain of the other set, with the loops opposite each other.
6 Make 50 gold fasteners. Use them to link the [two sets of] sheets together so that the tent is a single unit.

Then make fifty gold clasps and use them to fasten the curtains together so that the tabernacle is a unit.
