Exodus 26:14-24

14 facies et operimentum aliud tecto de pellibus arietum rubricatis et super hoc rursum aliud operimentum de ianthinis pellibus

15 facies et tabulas stantes tabernaculi de lignis setthim

16 quae singulae denos cubitos in longitudine habeant et in latitudine singulos ac semissem

17 in lateribus tabulae duae incastraturae fient quibus tabula alteri tabulae conectatur atque in hunc modum cunctae tabulae parabuntur

18 quarum viginti erunt in latere meridiano quod vergit ad austrum

19 quibus quadraginta bases argenteas fundes ut binae bases singulis tabulis per duos angulos subiciantur

20 in latere quoque secundo tabernaculi quod vergit ad aquilonem viginti tabulae erunt

21 quadraginta habentes bases argenteas binae bases singulis tabulis subponentur

22 ad occidentalem vero plagam tabernaculi facies sex tabulas

23 et rursum alias duas quae in angulis erigantur post tergum tabernaculi

24 eruntque coniunctae a deorsum usque sursum et una omnes conpago retinebit duabus quoque tabulis quae in angulis ponendae sunt similis iunctura servabitur
