Exodus 38

New Living Translation NLT

1 Next Bezalel used acacia wood to construct the square altar of burnt offering. It was 7 feet wide, 7 feet long, and 4 feet high.

2 He made horns for each of its four corners so that the horns and altar were all one piece. He overlaid the altar with bronze.

3 Then he made all the altar utensils of bronze—the ash buckets, shovels, basins, meat forks, and firepans.

4 Next he made a bronze grating and installed it halfway down the side of the altar, under the ledge.

5 He cast four rings and attached them to the corners of the bronze grating to hold the carrying poles.

6 He made the poles from acacia wood and overlaid them with bronze.

7 He inserted the poles through the rings on the sides of the altar. The altar was hollow and was made from planks.

8 Bezalel made the bronze washbasin and its bronze stand from bronze mirrors donated by the women who served at the entrance of the Tabernacle.

9 Then Bezalel made the courtyard, which was enclosed with curtains made of finely woven linen. On the south side the curtains were 150 feet long.

10 They were held up by twenty posts set securely in twenty bronze bases. He hung the curtains with silver hooks and rings.

11 He made a similar set of curtains for the north side—150 feet of curtains held up by twenty posts set securely in bronze bases. He hung the curtains with silver hooks and rings.

12 The curtains on the west end of the courtyard were 75 feet long, hung with silver hooks and rings and supported by ten posts set into ten bases.

13 The east end, the front, was also 75 feet long.

14 The courtyard entrance was on the east end, flanked by two curtains. The curtain on the right side was 22 feet long and was supported by three posts set into three bases.

15 The curtain on the left side was also 22 feet long and was supported by three posts set into three bases.

16 All the curtains used in the courtyard were made of finely woven linen.

17 Each post had a bronze base, and all the hooks and rings were silver. The tops of the posts of the courtyard were overlaid with silver, and the rings to hold up the curtains were made of silver.

18 He made the curtain for the entrance to the courtyard of finely woven linen, and he decorated it with beautiful embroidery in blue, purple, and scarlet thread. It was 30 feet long, and its height was 7 feet, just like the curtains of the courtyard walls.

19 It was supported by four posts, each set securely in its own bronze base. The tops of the posts were overlaid with silver, and the hooks and rings were also made of silver.

20 All the tent pegs used in the Tabernacle and courtyard were made of bronze.

21 This is an inventory of the materials used in building the Tabernacle of the Covenant. The Levites compiled the figures, as Moses directed, and Ithamar son of Aaron the priest served as recorder.

22 Bezalel son of Uri, grandson of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

23 He was assisted by Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, a craftsman expert at engraving, designing, and embroidering with blue, purple, and scarlet thread on fine linen cloth.

24 The people brought special offerings of gold totaling 2,193 pounds, as measured by the weight of the sanctuary shekel. This gold was used throughout the Tabernacle.

25 The whole community of Israel gave 7,545 pounds of silver, as measured by the weight of the sanctuary shekel.

26 This silver came from the tax collected from each man registered in the census. (The tax is one beka, which is half a shekel, based on the sanctuary shekel.) The tax was collected from 603,550 men who had reached their twentieth birthday.

27 The hundred bases for the frames of the sanctuary walls and for the posts supporting the inner curtain required 7,500 pounds of silver, about 75 pounds for each base.

28 The remaining 45 pounds of silver was used to make the hooks and rings and to overlay the tops of the posts.

29 The people also brought as special offerings 5,310 pounds of bronze,

30 which was used for casting the bases for the posts at the entrance to the Tabernacle, and for the bronze altar with its bronze grating and all the altar utensils.

31 Bronze was also used to make the bases for the posts that supported the curtains around the courtyard, the bases for the curtain at the entrance of the courtyard, and all the tent pegs for the Tabernacle and the courtyard.

The Message Bible MSG

1 He made the Altar of Whole-Burnt-Offering from acacia wood. He made it seven and a half feet square and four and a half feet high.

2 He made horns at each of the four corners. The horns were made of one piece with the Altar and covered with a veneer of bronze.

3 He made from bronze all the utensils for the Altar: the buckets for removing the ashes, shovels, basins, forks, and fire pans.

4 He made a grate of bronze mesh under the ledge halfway up the Altar.

5 He cast four rings at each of the four corners of the bronze grating to hold the poles.

6 He made the poles of acacia wood and covered them with a veneer of bronze.

7 He inserted the poles through the rings on the two sides of the Altar for carrying it. The Altar was made out of boards; it was hollow.

8 He made the Bronze Washbasin and its bronze stand from the mirrors of the women's work group who were assigned to serve at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

9 And he made the Courtyard. On the south side the hangings for the Courtyard, woven from fine twisted linen, were 150 feet long,

10 with their twenty posts and twenty bronze bases, and fastening hooks and bands of silver.

11 The north side was exactly the same.

12 The west end of the Courtyard had seventy-five feet of hangings with ten posts and bases, and fastening hooks and bands of silver.

13 Across the seventy-five feet at the front, or east end,

14 were twenty-two and a half feet of hangings, with their three posts and bases on one side

15 and the same for the other side.

16 All the hangings around the Courtyard were of fine twisted linen.

17 The bases for the posts were bronze and the fastening hooks and bands on the posts were of silver. The posts of the Courtyard were both capped and banded with silver.

18 The screen at the door of the Courtyard was embroidered in blue, purple, and scarlet fabric with fine twisted linen. It was thirty feet long and seven and a half feet high, matching the hangings of the Courtyard.

19 There were four posts with bases of bronze and fastening hooks of silver; they were capped and banded in silver

20 . All the pegs for The Dwelling and the Courtyard were made of bronze.

21 This is an inventory of The Dwelling that housed The Testimony drawn up by order of Moses for the work of the Levites under Ithamar, son of Aaron the priest.

22 Bezalel, the son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made everything that God had commanded Moses.

23 Working with Bezalel was Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an artisan, designer, and embroiderer in blue, purple, and scarlet fabrics and fine linen.

24 Gold. The total amount of gold used in construction of the Sanctuary, all of it contributed freely, weighed out at 1,900 pounds according to the Sanctuary standard.

25 Silver. The silver from those in the community who were registered in the census came to 6,437 pounds according to the Sanctuary standard

26 - that amounted to a beka, or half-shekel, for every registered person aged twenty and over, a total of 603,550 men.

27 They used the three and one-quarter tons of silver to cast the bases for the Sanctuary and for the hangings, one hundred bases at sixty-four pounds each.

28 They used the remaining thirty-seven pounds to make the connecting hooks on the posts, and the caps and bands for the posts.

29 Bronze. The bronze that was brought in weighed 4,522 pounds.

30 It was used to make the door of the Tent of Meeting, the Bronze Altar with its bronze grating, all the utensils of the Altar,

31 the bases around the Courtyard, the bases for the gate of the Courtyard, and all the pegs for The Dwelling and the Courtyard.
