1 The workers made the altar for burnt offerings out of acacia wood. It was four feet six inches high and seven feet six inches square.
1
And he made the altar of burnt offering of shittim wood; five cubits was the length thereof and five cubits the breadth thereof; it was foursquare, and three cubits the height thereof.
2 They made a horn stick out from each of its four upper corners. They covered the altar with bronze.
2
And he made the horns thereof on the four corners of it; the horns thereof were of the same, and he overlaid it with brass.
3 They made all of its tools out of bronze. They made its pots, shovels, sprinkling bowls, meat forks, and pans for carrying ashes.
3
And he made all the vessels of the altar: the pots and the shovels and the basins, and the fleshhooks and the firepans; all the vessels thereof made he of brass.
4 They made a bronze grate for the altar. They put the grate halfway up the altar on the inside.
4
And he made for the altar a brazen grate of network, under the rim thereof beneath, unto the midst of it.
5 They made a bronze ring for each of the four corners of the grate.
5
And he cast four rings for the four ends of the grate of brass, to be places for the staves.
6 They made poles out of acacia wood. They covered them with bronze.
6
And he made the staves of shittim wood and overlaid them with brass.
7 They put the poles through the rings. The poles were on two sides of the altar for carrying it. The workers made the altar out of boards. They made it hollow.
7
And he put the staves into the rings on the sides of the altar to bear it; he made the altar hollow with boards.
8 The workers made the large bronze bowl and its bronze stand. They made them out of the bronze mirrors that belonged to the women who served at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
8
And he made the laver of brass and the foot of it from brass, from the looking glasses of the women assembling, who assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
9 Next, the workers made the courtyard. The south side was 150 feet long. It had curtains that were made out of finely twisted linen.
9
And he made the court: on the south side southward the hangings of the court were of finetwined linen, a hundred cubits.
10 The curtains had 20 posts and 20 bronze bases. The posts had silver hooks and bands on them.
10
Their pillars were twenty and their brazen sockets twenty; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver.
11 The north side was also 150 feet long. Its curtains had 20 posts and 20 bronze bases. The posts had silver hooks and bands on them.
11
And for the north side the hangings were a hundred cubits. Their pillars were twenty and their sockets of brass twenty, the hooks of the pillars and their fillets, of silver.
12 The west end was 75 feet wide. It had curtains with ten posts and ten bases. The posts had silver hooks and bands on them.
12
And for the west side were hangings of fifty cubits, their pillars ten and their sockets ten, the hooks of the pillars and their fillets, of silver.
13 The east end, toward the sunrise, was also 75 feet wide.
13
And for the east side eastward, fifty cubits.
14 Curtains that were 22 feet six inches long were on one side of the entrance. They were hung on three posts. Each post had a base.
14
The hangings of the one side of the gate were fifteen cubits, their pillars three and their sockets three.
15 Curtains that were 22 feet six inches long were also on the other side of the entrance to the courtyard. They were hung on three posts. Each post had a base.
15
And for the other side of the court gate, on this side and that side, were hangings of fifteen cubits, their pillars three and their sockets three.
16 All of the curtains that were around the courtyard were made out of finely twisted linen.
16
All the hangings of the court round about were of finetwined linen.
17 The bases for the posts were made out of bronze. The hooks and bands that were on the posts were made out of silver. Their tops were covered with silver. So all of the posts of the courtyard had silver bands.
17
And the sockets for the pillars were of brass, the hooks of the pillars and their fillets, of silver; and the overlaying of their capitals, of silver, and all the pillars of the court were filleted with silver.
18 The curtain for the entrance to the courtyard was made out of blue, purple and bright red yarn and finely twisted linen. A person who sewed skillfully made it. It was 30 feet long. Like the curtains of the courtyard, it was seven feet six inches high.
18
And the hanging for the gate of the court was needlework: of blue and purple and scarlet, and finetwined linen; and twenty cubits was the length, and the height in the breadth was five cubits, corresponding to the hangings of the court.
19 It had four posts and four bronze bases. Their hooks and bands were made out of silver. Their tops were covered with silver.
19
And their pillars were four and their sockets of brass four; their hooks, of silver, and the overlaying of their capitals and their fillets, of silver.
20 All of the tent stakes of the holy tent were made out of bronze. So were all of the stakes of the courtyard that was around it.
20
And all the pegs of the tabernacle and of the court round about were of brass.
21 Here are the amounts of the metals that were used for the holy tent, where the tablets of the covenant were kept. Moses commanded the Levites to record the amounts. The Levites did the work under the direction of Ithamar. Ithamar was the son of the priest Aaron.
21
This is the account of the tabernacle, even of the tabernacle of testimony, as it was counted according to the commandment of Moses for the service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar, son of Aaron the priest.
22 Bezalel, the son of Uri, made everything the LORD had commanded Moses. Uri was the son of Hur. Bezalel was from the tribe of Judah.
22
And Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that the LORD commanded Moses.
23 Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, helped Bezalel. Oholiab was from the tribe of Dan. He could carve things and make patterns. And he could sew skillfully with blue, purple and bright red yarn and on fine linen.
23
And with him was Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver and a skillful workman, and an embroiderer in blue and in purple and in scarlet, and fine linen.
24 The total weight of the gold from the wave offering was more than a ton. It was weighed out in keeping with the standard weights that are used in the sacred tent. The gold was used for all of the work that was done in connection with the sacred tent.
24
All the gold that was used for the work in all the work of the holy place, even the gold of the offering, was twenty and nine talents, and seven hundred and thirty shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary.
25 The silver that was received from the men in the community who were listed and counted weighed four tons. It was weighed out in keeping with the weights used in the sacred tent.
25
And the silver of those who were numbered in the congregation was a hundred talents, and a thousand seven hundred and threescore and fifteen shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary:
26 It amounted to a fifth of an ounce for each person. It was weighed out in keeping with the weights used in the sacred tent. The silver was received from the men who had been listed and counted. All of them were 20 years old or more. Their total number was 603,550.
26
a bekah for every man, that is, half a shekel, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, for every one who went to be numbered from twenty years old and upward, for six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty men.
27 The four tons of silver were used to make the bases for the holy tent and for the curtain. The 100 bases were made from the four tons. Each base used more than 75 pounds of silver.
27
And of the hundred talents of silver were cast the sockets of the sanctuary and the sockets of the veil: a hundred sockets from the hundred talents, a talent for a socket.
28 The workers used 45 pounds to make the hooks for the posts, to cover the tops of the posts, and to make their bands.
28
And of the thousand seven hundred seventy and five shekels he made hooks for the pillars, and overlaid their capitals and filleted them.
29 The bronze from the wave offering weighed two and a half tons.
29

30
And therewith he made the sockets for the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the brazen altar and the brazen grate for it, and all the vessels of the altar,
31 They used some for the bases for the courtyard that was around the holy tent. They used some for the bases for the courtyard entrance. And they used the rest to make all of the tent stakes for the holy tent and the courtyard that was around it.
31
and the sockets of the court round about, and the sockets of the court gate, and all the pegs of the tabernacle, and all the pegs of the court round about.
